Craftons Give 'Close Quarters At 8:15 Tonight
Tonight at 8:15 the first curtain will rise on "Close Quarters," Somin's two-character play starring Prof. and Mrs. Allen Crafton, to be presented in Fraser theater. The second and final presentation will be tomorrow night at the same time.
The setting of "Close Quarters" is the flat of Gustav and Liesa Bergmann in some city in central Europe. The time of the play is the period between World Wars I and II.
Gustav Bergmann has been associated with the labor movement and has risen in influence in his party. Just at the moment of his greatest triumph, Sander, the minister of state, is murdered. Circumstantial evidence points to Bergmann. Added to this situation is the very peculiar behavior of Bergmann's wife when she learns of the murder. The action of the play concerns the lives of these two people during the 36 hours following the death of Sander.
No admission will be charged for the performances, according to Professor Crafton. The public has been invited, but since the seating capacity of Fraser theater is limited, it will be necessary to secure tickets before the performance at the ticket office in Green hall. It will be open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. today and tomorrow.
Students should present their activity tickets, either the winter or spring ones, at the ticket office. Townpeople and others may also obtain tickets either by telephoning KU 174 or by going to the ticket office, Professor Crafton said.
Malott Attends Two National Conferences
Chancellor Deane W. Malott, who has been in Washington, D.C., since Tuesday attending two conferences and taking care of University business, is expected to return Saturday.
Tomorrow and Thursday the Chancellor will attend an advisory meeting of business men with the United States Department of Commerce. He is one of the 60 businessmen in the United States chosen to attend the conference.
Last weekend Chancellor Malott represented the National Association of State Universities, of which he is secretary-treasurer, at a United States office of education conference. The conference was called to discuss congressional legislation of post-war training and rehabilitation of men and women returning from the armed forces.
Hackler, KU Graduate, Killed in Air Crash
Ensign Harold L. Hackler, graduate of the School of Fine Arts in 1939 and a former pupil of Prof. W. Otto Miessener, was killed in a plane crash at Picific Beach, Wash., while participating in gunnery practice.
Before entering the service Ensign Hackler was music supervisor of Oakley, Kans., schools and formerly music director at Paseo high school in Kansas City.
Capt. Herman Hauck Japanese Prisoner
Capt. Herman H. Hauck, '37, who was captured when Corregidor fell, was not killed by the Japanese as reported by the Daily Kansan recently but is a prisoner in Japanese custody, his parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Hauck of Valley Falls announced. Their last word from him was at Christmas. His father-in-law, Lt. Col. Lloyd Biggs was killed, however, as reports originally stated.
Mr. and Mrs. Hauck recently were taken home from the Kansas City hospital where Mrs. Hauck had been undergoing treatment and Mr. Hauck was given care for injuries received in an automobile accident while he was driving to the hospital to visit Mrs. Hauck.
Start Destruction Of Berlin
The consensus voiced by travelers who reached Stockholm after experiencing the daylight assaults on Berlin seemed to be that the German capitol might not last out the month if American bombers team up with the R.A.F. in steady round-the-clock bombing. "Continuation of attacks on such a scale" said one observer in the Swedish capitol "will mean—judging from the dislocation that I saw—that the morale of hundreds of thousands of Berlin residents will crack."
Huge fires raged throughout the city, explosions that crumbled whole square blocks into ruins and a pall of pungent smoke that numafied the daylight all contributed to the terror that resulted when perhaps 1,000 four motored fortresses and liberators escorted by fighter planes visited Berlin, the travelers said.
The latest official tabulation from headquarters of Lt. Gen. Carl A. Spaatz in London showed that 68 heavy bombers, a record number, were lost in the attack, as against this number 176 German fighter planes were destroyed.
In Italy sharp fighting flared in the Cassino sector. Increased enemy activity was noted on the long dormant British 8th army front along the Adriatic where two small German attacks against Indian positions were repulsed. A 40 mile an hour gale hampered both ground and air forces at the Anzio beachhead.
In New Guinea the Admiralty islands and northern Burma the Japanese were dealt stunning blows. Dispatches from an advanced American base deep in the jungles of northern Burma revealed that veteran American forces fighting for the first time as a unit on Asia had completed a road block threatening extinction of 2,000 Japanese trapped near Walawumb.
On the Ukranian front, Soviet troops rolled across the Odessa Lwow-Warsaw railroad line toward the Rumanian frontier.
Leo Hellmer Visits on Campus
Leo Hellmer, former laboratory instructor in the psychology department, recently visited on the campus. In the army a year, Hellmer is stationed with the air corps at San Antonio, Tex. where I does psychological examining. He received his doctor of philosophy degree in psychology from the University in 1941 and was a psychologist in the Child Guidance center in Wichita.
Army to Expand Training of Men Aged 17 to 19
University authorities were advised today that the War Department had approved a considerable stepping-upof the A-12 program and is urging all the universities, colleges and secondary schools in the country to exert every effort to encourage young men who have graduated from high school or who will be graduated by July 1, and who are under 18, to take the qualifying examinations to be given on March 15. In Lawrence, the examinations will be given in Fraser Theater under the direction of Dr. A. H. Turney of the department of education.
The action of the War Department in expanding the Army Specialized Training Reserve program follows the suggestion of the Committee on the Relationships of Education to the Federal Government of the American Council on Education, and enthusiastically endorsed by the National Association of Secondary School principals. The program will provide for the Army a much needed supply of men with at least two terms of specialized training at the college level.
Those eligible to sit for the qualifying examinations include (1) men who are graduated or will be graduated from high school by July 1, 1944, and who have reached their 17th birthday but are not yet 17 years and 9 months; (2) a limited number of those between 17 years and 9 months of age and 22 are eligible for the ASTP after the completion of their basic military training; (3) and men who are high school graduates between 17 and 19 years of age by the same date may express a preference for the V-12 program of the navy.
Enlisted men now assigned to the ASTP for instruction in medicine, dentistry and veterinary medicine will be continued in the program. Also ASTP students currently enrolled in pre-professional training in those branches will be continued and upon successful completion of their work, will be advanced to the medical or dental phases of the program.
Pollom, Marine Pilot Missing in Action
Second Lt. Don Pollom, students at the University from 1939 to 1943, was reported "missing in airplane flight," according to a telegram received by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lester B. Pollom of Topeka, Feb. 23. Lieutenant Pololl has been in combat duty since December in the Pacific area as a Marine fighter pilot.
A Don Pollom week, dedicated to the former athletic star, started at Topeka High School Monday to run through this week in connection with the school's war bond drive. In his senior year in high school, Pollom was elected king of the all-school party.
The last letter received from Polom by his parents was written three weeks before he was reported missing, and he stated then that "we expect plenty of excitement in about a week." The official notification of his absence came from Gen. A. A. Vandegrift, Marine commander, and the explanatory letter following has not yet arrived.
Lt. Pollom was prominent in both track and football in high school and the University. In April, 1938, he established a national inter-scholastic record for the 200-yard low hurdles. The Topeka Daily Capital chose him as halfback on the all-state high school football team in 1839. He was prominent in college athletics in his freshman year as well as in varsity athletics.
Sororities to Hold Open House for V-12

Junior Prom To Feature Chauncey Downs
Chauncey Downs and his "Soldiers of Production," featuring Inez Ray, singer, will supply the music at the junior prom, a formal varsity. Saturday March 11 from 9 to 12 p.m. in Hoch auditorium.

The dance is sponsored by the Junior class, and is under the direction of Haloise Hillbraid, University dance manager. Miss Hillbrand, as chairman of the Varsity committee and Don Alderson, as chairman of the Junior class dance committee, are working together to plan the dance.
Capt. Archie Morris (Cav.) has been transferred from his duties here as Battalion commander, AST SU 3704, to the AST Medical Detachment, Kansas City, Kansas. Capt. Morris, relieves First Lt. Ross H. Ley, CAC, who has been ordered to duty with troops at Fort Francis E. Warren, Wyo.

Morris Transferred To Kansas City, Kans.
Lt. Ley is the fourth officer of the University of Kansas AST Unit to be assigned to troop duty within the past few weeks. The War Department contemplates relieving many troop age officers from nontroop duty in the near future. They will be released for duty with troops in the Army Ground Forces and given such assignments as will best serve the war effort, according to Col. W. L. McMorris, CAC commanding officer.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Students Will Have Weather to Combat In Spring Semester
With final week cramming a thing of the past, University students have been leafing through enrollment booklets yesterday and today in preparation for their first real spring semester. In normal years at this season the University would be thinking about midsemester examinations of the second term.
The words, "spring semester" have a fascinatingly different sound for University upperclassmen, and the semester may well turn out to be very different from any in the past. March to July means spring edging into summer in any Kansan's language, and the weather during the ensuing months may well play havoc with the best laid study plans. Kansas weather, well-known for its unpredictableness, has never yet failed to live up to its reputation in the springtime.
A Kansas springtime guarantees plenty of warm, balmy days. It's true that the rains come, and the snows come, but the balmy spring days always come, too. When the evenings begin to get long and light and the illias bloom along the lane, it becomes difficult, to say the least, to concentrate on medieval history.
This semester lasts until nearly the first of July. It can only be hoped that professors will remind those students who haven't already thought of it, that it is much easier to read the text on cold March evenings than during the long summer evenings of late June.
Sigma Xi Will Hear Dr. Debye, Scientist Saturday Evening
Dr. Peter Debye, chairman of the chemistry department at Cornell University, will lecture on "The Magnetic Approach to Absolute Zero" at 8 p.m. Saturday in Fraser Sigma Xi, national honor organization for the encouragement of theater before the local chapter of scientific research, according to Prof. R. Q. Brewster, chairman of the K. U. chapter.
A Dutch Nobelist, Dr. Debye is delivering his address under the auspices of Sigma Xi chapters at 14 universities and institutions during the next few weeks. Formerly director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute of Physics in Berlin, Dr. Debye is one of the many eminent European scientists who have come to America to continue their scientific work, Professor Brewster pointed out.

That man again: After being squelched shortly before finals ended by certain fraternity men who took to protecting their women, the Disturbing Element seems to be on the loose again. Delta Gammas came back to school to find their new basketball trophy missing from the mantel. In its place was an ace of clubs, bearing the note, "Thanks, Club Foot Cutie."

The all-purpose cure: One college girl was embarrassed to realize—in the middle of a big night—that she had contracted the hiccups. Her Sig Alph date and other members of the party tried everything but the hiccuping continued. Finally someone suggested being kissed might help. So the Sig Alph kissed her. She got over them all right.

the navy in them: New V-12's
just in from the fleet dropped anchor yesterday at the first enrollment desk (where people give their names). The boys took down the name of every girl who arrived—attempted to get telephone numbers—and rated registrants A, B, C, or D as they walked up the stairs. After a year in Alaska, the sailors seemed inclined to consider anything in a skirt A material. The rating was more for the length of the skirt.
The bumpy Road to Love: There were just 12 people waiting for the same cab last night after the show—10 of them lone girls and two of them Bill Rooffh, V-12, with date, Barbara Thiele, D. G. freshman. Proving that men are powerless in the face of organized resistance from the other sex—the 10 girls piled inside the cab while Bill took to the trunk with Barbara.
Many Will Attend National Music Meet
***
The School of Music will be well represented at the annual meetings of the Music Teachers National Association and the National Association of Schools of Music at Cincinnati starting March 23 and lasting four days.
Both organizations, pledged to the consistent improvement in standards for teaching, arranged last year to have their meetings consecutively and at the same place to save time and travel for colleges having membership in both organizations.
The M. T. N. A., of which Dean D. M. Swarthout is secretary, will meet during the first two days, and the N. A. S. M., of which the dean is an inspector, will convene for the last two days. The last named association is the only accredited body for schools and departments of music in the United States and has a membership of 142.
In his position as inspector, Dean Swarthout returned Sunday from Minnesota where he investigated a school of music for accredited membership in the association.
proach to zero, Dr. Debye will show that by attacking the disorder hidden in the nucleus of the atom there is hope that the world's record for low temperature will be driven below the present figure of a thousandth of a degree Centigrade above absolute zero, Professor Brewster explained.

Jayhawker Board Will Interview Editor Candidates
Candidates for editor of the Jay-hawker will be interviewed by the Jayhawker Board tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock, Karl Klooz, chairman of the Board, announced today. Three candidates have already applied, and any others who have had the necessary experience may apply to Mr. Klooz today or tomorrow before the Board meeting. Janet Marvin's graduation in February left the editor's position unfilled.
Mr. Klooz's appointment of Virginia Schaefer, College senior, as business manager of the Jayhawker was approved by the Jayhawker Board Thursday. She replaces Bob Ramsey, V-12, who resigned in the middle of last semester because of his restricted program.
In addition to Mr. Klooz the Board is composed of Dean Henry Werner,

Fire in Bailey Causes Damage of $1000
THEATRE TICKETS
Men are still working today it the basement of the Bailey Chemistry building amid piles of timber and loose plaster to repair the damage caused by fire last Friday. The blaze broke out about 3 o'clock in the afternoon and was completely extinguished 45 minutes later by the Lawrence fire department. The damage was estimated not to exceed $1,000 by C. G. Bayles, superintendent of buildings and grounds.
GARY COOPER and INGRID BERGMAN in their roles of Robert Jordan and Maria in Paramount's Technicolor Triumph "For Whom the Bell Toll" Hailed as the Screen's Greatest Entertainment Since "Gone With the Wind."
The fire started in a workshop in the basement where two students, William Haines and David Chamberlain, both senior engineers, were repairing a machine with welding torches. They had been employed by the University to do the work and were called competent workers by Prof. Ray Q. Brewster, head of the chemistry department.
When they discovered the fire, it was a small one in the floor. Before they could put it out, it spread under the floor to the fan room used for a cooling system. Workmen are laying a new floor there now. It was necessary to cut several holes in the walls to reach the blaze. There was no damage to equipment.
By a strange coincidence the fire occurred on the anniversary of another University fire. A year ago the anatomy building was destroyed. This loss was estimated at $40,000.
The fire Friday was called by Professor Brewster the worst of several that have started in the chemistry building through the years. The building was erected in 1900.
At 7 o'clock Friday evening the fire department was called back to the campus. Watchmen thought the fire had started again, but it proved to be a false alarm.
Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, Prof. E. F. Beth of the journalism department, Prof. John Hankins, of the English department, the publications committee of the ASC, and Raymond Nichols, Chancellor's secretary and former member of the Jayhawker staff.

Iowa State Beats Kansas In Final Game
The Iowa State Cyclones moved into a first place tie with Oklahoma by beating the University of Kansas Jayhawkers 47 to 25 last Friday night in Hoch auditorium.
After the first few moments the outcome of the game was never in doubt, although for a while the Jayhawkers made a contest of it. But the steady shooting of the Wehde brothers and Price Brookfield gave the Cyclones a half-time edge of 22 to 11. Coach Allen used several substitutes in an effort to find a clicking combination. The Kansans had a very "cold" night at the basket, making only nine field goals, two of these by Bob Malott, substitute forward. Free throw trouble again was present as the Allenmen made only 13 out of 27 of their gifts shots.
This was the final game of the season for the Jayhawkers and the defeat put them into a third place tie with the Missouri Tigers, who beat Kansas State 38 to 14. Both teams won five games and lost five. The services of Homer Sherwood were missed, but Bill Lindquist who played in Sherwood's place scored 10 points to lead the Kansas attack.
The victory of the Iowa State team made Coach "Phog" Allen's pre-season prediction that the Cyclones would win the Big Six title come true.
Match With Indians Causes Protests
Although losing seven of the 10 fights scheduled, the Navy fighters showed improvement in their match with the Haskell Indians held Feb. 28 at Haskell.
Except in one or two fights, the decisions were clear cut, but the decisions of Severs, tall Indian, over Herbert Hill, his shorter Navy opponent, drew lusty protests from the Navy section. Hill was credited by the Navy men as having made a much better showing than his long-armed adversary.
Navy winners over the Indians were John C. Marquest, 147 lb, class A. J. Warta, heavyweight, and S. S. Benestanche, 160 lb, class.
W. A. White's Picture Printed
Under the caption, "His Mission Fulfilled," a picture of the late William Allen White is printed on the front of the American Press magazine this month. A lengthy article concerning his life is also used.
Rock Does No.1 Job In Big Six Coaching Dr. Allen Declares
The No.1 coaching job for the Big Six basketball season just completed has been turned in by Coach Clifford Rock, first year cage mentor at Kansas State, Dr. Forrest C, "Phog" Allen declared here today. While Rock's team finished in a tie for last place deadlocked with Nebraska, Allen pointed out that Rock got more out of the material available than any other coach in the loop.
Many of the Aggie squad this year had been on the campus two and three years, Allen continued, and had not attempted to participate in the cage sport. Rock practically had to draft enough members to make up a squad and from that group produced a hard fighting, aggressive, sportsmanlike team that was in the thick of every battle. An example, he said, was Lee Doyen, who until he went into service, was one of the finest guards and deadliest shots in the conference.
Laurels for the runner-up post, Dr. Allen continued, should go to George Edwards, whose all-civilian Missouri team tied Kansas for third place in the conference standings. Edwards managed to guide his quintet into a tie for a place in the first division in spite of the fact that Iowa State, Oklahoma, and Kansas, all had naval talent to draw upon.
Missouri's victory over the Jayhawks in the conference opener in Columbia was hailed by sportswriters as a violent upset. The manner in which the Bengals conducted themselves throughout the season, however, indicated that George Edwards had produced a fine quintet from Tigerland, a threat in every game until the final whistle.

Nationalism will eventually completely destroy our civilization, predicted Dr. Felix Morley, president of Haverford college, in his address to the 161 mid-year graduates Sunday, Feb. 27.
The concept of the nation has replaced the concept of the civilization. After World War I the people of Europe forgot to be Europeans and thought of themselves only as members of their own state or racial group. There was more shame in being unloyal to the state than to Christian ideals. Future historians will group the two world wars together as the suicide of Western Europe, said Dr. Morley.
The academic procession filed into the auditorium as Laurel Everett Anderson, University organist, played the "Procession of Holy Sacrament" by Chauvet. After the processional Joseph F. Wilkins, chairman of the department of voice, led the audience in singing the national anthem. A vocal solo "Time, You Old Gypsy Man" was then sung by Meribah Moore, associate professor of voice.
Morley Envisions Nationalism
In his farewell speech to the graduates, Chancellor Deane W. Mallett said that they all must face a life of courageous action if they are to keep democracy. Democracy is not inevitable, he said.
Greetings to the graduates were given by Governor Andrew F. Schoeppel and Drew McLaughlin, member of the board of regents. Mr. McLaughlin presented the diplomas to the graduates.
That morning the senior class held the traditional breakfast. Dedicated to the confusion of wartime, a backward breakfast was served following the program. R. J. Atkinson, master of ceremonies introduced Governor Schoeppel and Chancellor Malott. Walter Butin read the class prophecy, "Eruptions of '44," written by Joy Miller and Bob Provard read the class history. Betty Lou Perkins, Ruth Prentice and Karl Ehrlich sang a parody on "Marzidoates," and Gordon McKune played boogie-woogie on the piano.

Students Finish Enrollment and Start Semester
The spring semester got under way today as students braved windy March weather to attend 8:30 classes. Two long, hard days of decisions and arrangements of hours and schedules had come to an end, and enrollment was completed once again.
"The figures on enrollment are not definite yet," Raymand Nichols, executive secretary said this morning, "but the gross number looks large. It is hard to tell, however, since several hundred V-12's are replacing men who transferred out. Then, too, some civilians transferred into the army medical program, while others changed from one school or department to another," he said.
"The present shortened semesters make it imperative that classes be realized promptly," Dean Lawson emphasized. "Consequently, every student should get started immediately in the courses he plans to take, as the foundation of the subject is outlined in these first few days."
Anyone wishing to make a last minute change in his schedule in the College must do so before noon on Saturday, Dean Paul B. Lawson said.
Any changes necessary can be made in the College office within the next three days, but they must be made by the end of this week.
Capt. Clark Assigned To Omaha to Teach
Headquarters of the Seventh Service Command has assigned Capt. Benjamin F. Clark (Inf.) to the position of professor of military science and tactics at the Omaha, Nebr., high schools. Capt. Clark will leave Lawrence on March 10 to assume his new duties.
Arts Show Treatment of Wounded
The role of arts in present day therapy is illustrated in an exhibition now on display in Spooner-Thayer museum. Brought from the Museum of Modern Art of New York City by the department of design of the University, the exhibit will serve to introduce to the layman, artist, student or teacher, art as an aid in the treatment of the physically handicapped as well as the mentally or emotionally disturbed.
A group of early nineteenth century quilts from the museum's own collection is featured in the north gallery. Among the various colorful designs are the blazing star, mountain lily, tents of Armageddon, turkey-track, star design rose of Sharon, Democrat rose, and original designs. The making of patchwork quilts is one of the most picturesque of all the folk-arts. These on display are excellent examples of the one art pioneer women could claim as their own.
The displays, mounted on wallboard with text accompanying all illustration, will make clear the new fields of research in occupational therapy. They will include visual tests, medical analysis of creative work of students, and patients, as well as examples of creative media and the crafts employed in therapeutic work.
The rehabilitation and re-education of the wounded of the war has stimulated a new interest in this type of work. The exhibit will remain at Spooner-Thayer museum on the second floor in the south gallery throughout March.
Committee on Citations Considers Selections for Alumni Recognition
Dr. N. W. Storer, associate professor of astronomy, spoke on "Possible Life on Other Planets" before the Lawrence Rotary club at noon Monday.
Dr. Storer Speaks to Rotary
--living and conducts the ceremony at a local meeting.
Members of the committee on citations, which is officially approved by the Alumni association, have announced that they are interested in receiving suggestions of persons who should be considered for citations at commencement time. These suggestions may be turned in at the alumni office.
Receive Honors at Home
Since the first citations, which were made on the University's 75th anniversary in June,1941,the committee has chosen 46 alumni to receive the honor of the "Citation for Distinguished Service" in their particular profession or field which has reflected honor and credit to the University. These selections are made once a year by the anonymous members of the committee and the ceremony is conducted at commencement time.
Often the honored persons are unable to attend, in which case the Chancellor or some other official connected with the committee, goes to the city in which the person is
Among the outstanding alumni who have been chosen since 1941 are the following:
Raymond Clapper, late columnist of Washington, D.C.; Ben Hibbs, editor, of Philadelphia; Dr. C. A. Kraus, professor of chemistry at Brown University in Providence, R. L.; and former president of the American Chemical society who has also been responsible for recent developments in Ethel gasoline and pyrex glass; Karl A. Krueger, director of the Detroit, Symphony and former director of the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra; Alf M. Landon, statesman of Topeka; Harold D. Smith, United States budget director of Washington, D. C.; Edward R. Weidlein, director of the Mellon Institute; the late William Allen White, editor and writer of Emporia; and Ennis C. Whitehead, Major-General of the United States air forces who is second in command of the air forces in the Southwest Pacific area.
Craftons Score Hit In First Performance Of 'Close Quarters'
By Ruth Tippin
Centering around a murder "for political motives," "Close Quarters," adapted from "Attentat" by W. O. Somin, was presented by Prof. and Mrs. Allen Crafton in Fraser theatre last night. The last performance of this three-act modern play will be at 8:15 tonight.
Gayety and celebration at the beginning of the play changed to distrust and misgivings between the long-married Bergmann couple. This change in mood and the futile attempts to regain their happiness were handled well by the Craftsons.
Portraying Gustav and Liesa Bergmann, Professor and Mrs. Crafton earned the applause of the audience in this tense, emotional drama. Suspicion shifted between the two as the plot concerning the assassination of Sander, a political rival of Gustav, developed. From a slow start, the action progressed to high suspense in the third act.
Assisting in the production were Theodore Lehmann, College senior and first law student, in charge of sound; Mrs. Esther Ragle in charge of lighting; Patricia Creel and Mildred Carpenter, both College freshmen, stage; and Elizabeth Crafton, College junior, promoter. Lucile Wagner provided piano music between acts.
Tickets may be obtained at the ticket office in the basement of Green hall until 4 p.m. today for tonight's performance. The tickets are free of charge, and are needed because of the limited seating capacity of Fraser theatre.
WAVES Report For Training Here
Four enlisted WAVES, the first assigned to the local naval training station, reported for duty Monday morning as hospital apprentices. They will replace the present staff who will be assigned to sea duty.
The WAVES, Helen N. Yatsko, H. A. 1/c; Mary C. Simon, H. A. 1/ c; Harriet M. Yerkes, H. A. 2/c; and Elizabeth M. Walsh, H. A. 2/c, have recently completed their training at the naval hospitals at Great Lakes Naval Training Station.
"We like our new work very much," stated Seaman Yatsko. "The officials and townspeople have been very kind to us."
Women visiting the army and navy houses on the campus and women stationed in the various buildings today are bringing the Junior Prom to the attention of University students with their sale of tickets. The selling point of interest is the 12-piece or estra of Chauncey Downs and his featured singer Inez Ray.
Coeds Plug Prom At Military Quarters
The formal varsity, to be held in Hoeh auditorium Saturday night, is sponsored by the Junior class, and is under the direction of Heloise Hillbrand, University dance manager. The orchestra has been on tour around this part of the country and is scheduled to appear soon on the Fitch, bend wagon.

"There are a number of jobs open of all varieties for two to four hours a day," said Miss Miller. "We would like to fill as many as possible."
Pre-Invasion Blast Shatters Berlin; Yanks Attack in East
(International News Service)
Europe's pre-invasion battle-the Allied aerial offensive against Nazi Germany and the air force designed to defend it roared into another cycle of bombing today. United States heavy bombers attacked Berlin in great strength for the fourth time within 6 days.
Some 350,000 incendiary bombs and 10,000 high explosives were showered upon industrial areas of the German capital. Prior to the new assault on bomb-shattered Berlin allied bombers struck at the French city of Le Mans, 110 miles south of Paris, site of an important Nazi air field and of vast war production factories.
American forces in the Pacific maintained their offensive against the Japanese in widely diverted sectors. New details were awaited of Gen. Douglas MacArthur's latest leap-frog attack which sent his jungle fighters streaming into Talaise, half-way to the New Britain coast from Cape Cloucester to Raabul.
Talasea itself is the best harbor on the northern shore of the island and its capture will mean that virtually the entire western end of the island is in American hands.
Bulb Placer Now in Italy
He formerly changed lightbulbs in the University's classrooms, but now he is lighting up the battlefield.
he is right. Lt. David Corkill of Nortonville, who was graduated from the School of Engineering in 1940, was, as a student, employed by the buildings and grounds department, but he now has the distinction of commanding the company which has been deemed the best-maintenance company in the Italian theater of war.
Medical Society Hears Talk Lt, Comm. M. E. Gross talked to a meeting of the Douglas County Medical Society last night on "Medical Problems in the Tropics."
Edmund Stevens, foreign correspondent for the Christian Science Monitor, will be unable to fulfill his April engagement on the University lecture course, Chancellor Deane Malott announced today. Mr. Stevens, who has been reporting on the Russian front for the past several months, had planned to return to this country early in the spring, but, due to war-time restrictions prohibiting the emigration of certain foreigners, he is unable to leave Russia.
Replacing him on the lecture course will be the Honorable C. J. Hambro, an eminent Norwegian statesman, who will speak here March 29, said Chancellor Malott.
President of the former Norwegian Parliament and of the League of Nations Assembly, Mr. Hambro has been active in politics for many years. Before the German invasion of his country, he was head of the Conservative party and chairman of the committee of foreign relations. He is now chairman of the supervisory committee of the League of Nations for the duration of the war.
Mr. Hambro is also a noted journalist, having held the position of editor-in-chief of the great Scandinavian quarterly, "Le Nord," and having served as president of the Associated Press of Norway. The author of more than 20 books, Mr. Hambro is a member of the Nobel Prize Committee.
The Student Directory received its most disastrous blow in its turbulent history last week when all V-12s who were in PT's one to four, the Pacific Fleet, were interchanged with those who were living in PT's five to eight, the Atlantic Fleet.
Move by V-12's Causes Turmoil
Choosing the topic "How to Win the Peace" for his lecture here, Mr. Hambro will explain the practical application of ideas to the political realities that will govern the Peace Conference. Students will be admitted on their activity tickets.
The movement, which took place Tuesday, tied up Lawrence taxis most of the morning, and saw V-12's trudging to and from the campus on the long trek out to the far away regions of PT's one, two, and three.
In announcing the change, Lt. C. A. Michelman explained several reasons for the shift. The first is the equalization of the advantages of one house over another in so far as location is concerned. It was also desirable to mix the old men of the unit with the new men coming in, and it is a navy policy for men to be able to move all gear on short notice.
For the information of those who are interested—and from the number of phone calls to the different PT's a number of people are—if "Mac" was in PT's 1 to 4, he is now in any one of PT's 5 to 8, and vice versa.

Medics to Honor Dr. Francisco
A Student Union building for students at the University of Kansas hospitals in Kansas City, Kan., is envisioned through an initial gift of $400 by medica students and nurses
Begun as a memorial to Dr. Clarence B. Francisco, the proposed building is expected to cost approximately $200,000, and it is believed that with the enthusiasm that has been displayed by admirers of the orthopedic surgeon the amount will be exceeded through gifts from alumni.
Known as "Fran" to Students
The recent death of Dr. Francisco who was popular among faculty members and students in the School of Medicine, cast a pall of sadness over his friends and associates. The students have since dug deep into their pockets for the gift which is the seed from which the major fund is to grow.
Bernard Hall, of Lawrence, president of the senior class, said the friendliness of Dr. Francisco, known to students as "Fran" prompted their action. He said it was not only his lectures and surgery examples that they appreciated, but that he had gone out of his way to help many of them with wise suggestions and had aided not a few of them financially.
The annual picnics of medical students at the Francisco home long will be remembered.
With Hall on the committee are Bruce Drowns of St. Joseph, president of the junior class; Miss Neva Kennedy of Hutchinson, president of the Nurse Student council, and five seniors, Miss Margaret Nelson of Lawrence, Andy Mitchell of Topeka, son of the attorney general of Kansas; H. L. Hekhuis of Wichita, Alden Flanders of Ellsworth and Bill Sirridge of Kansas City.
Meanwhile a faculty committee headed by Dr. Galen M. Tice, with Dr. Ralph H. Major and Dr. Don Carlos Peete as associates, has sent letters to the medical staff of 150 for a subscription campaign to be completed this week in support of the project.

"We didn't see so much, but we sure had a couple of good dates," commented the boys.
The motive of the trip was not as doubtful as their report would lead one to believe. Upon being questioned, the boys admitted the girls were good respectable, not good wow. One of them was a cousin of the Maxwell sisters of Miller hall, whom they had been instructed to look up.
Even with well-brought-up dates, however, the Battenfeld boys managed to see Jimmy Dorsey in the Sherman's Panther room where soft drinks are strictly frowned upon.

HANDLE WITH CARE
A DURATION DO!
Your shirts are valuable items these days and appreciate special handling.
Turn up your shirt collar before sending it to the laundry. A collar washed flat doesn't fray so easily at the crease.
When you buy, buy Arrow. Arrow shirts are longer-lasting, better-fitting, and carry the Sanforized label (fabric shrinkage less than $1\%$ ).
Have your shirts laundered frequently. A too soiled shirt requires more scrubbing and consequently wears out more quickly.
Go easy on the starch. Starching stiffens fabric, so that it breaks instead of bending.

Iowa Accepts Bid to NCAA; Tigers Probable
Reconsidering their original refusal, the University of Iowa has accepted an invitation to participate in the Western National Collegial Athletic Association basketball contest at Kansas City March 24-25.
The Big Ten team will take the place of a Rocky Mountain representative which cannot be provided this year.
In the meanwhile the Big Six entry goes begging, and it is probable that Missouri will be the selection. After Iowa State turned down the invitation as mathematical winner of the Big Six championship, the Oklahoma Sooners were invited, but they too refused on the basis of inability to provide players for the duration of the tourney.
Kansas likewise will not be able to provide a team should they receive a bid, and the task of representing the conference probably will fall to Missouri which should give a good account of itself.

AP's All Big Six Team
AP's All Big Six Team
The Associated Press announced it's All Big Six team yesterday for the season just concluded. Allie Paine of Oklahoma and Price Brookfield of Iowa State were
unanimous choices but the selections for the other positions were extremely close. Don Barrington of Kansas and Ramsey of Oklahoma barely missed the first squad.
We believe the second team could give the first team a close game if not beat them. Certainly they would capture almost all the rebounds with Oulman, Barrington, and Ramsey in the lineup. But the first team has the scoring edge with Ray Wehde, Brookfield, and Paine leading the way. Indeed, it would make for an interesting game if

Bombers Deal Death Blows To Dying Berlin
(International News Service)
For the second day in succession and the fourth time in less than a week four-motored bombers of the U. S. army air force went roaring over Berlin in daylight and dropped another devastating load of high explosives and incendiaries to hasten the end of the dying capital. Vital war and industrial targets were assaulted in great strength again today and it was assumed that irreplaceable losses were once again suffered by the German air force.
Official tabulations of German sacrifices in yesterday's record American attack upon the capital showed that 125 Nazi interceptor planes were shot down. This boosted to 301 Nazi craft as a total shot down in two previous assaults over a 48 hour period—and today's bag is yet to be counted.
Once again Berlin was merely the major target of round-the-clock assault. Enemy shipping, communication lines, and supply depots on the Western Italian coast were pounded together with the Orte railway yard, 25 miles north of Rome, and the San Stefano railway destroyed. A squadron of from 50 to 60 Nazi planes attempted an attack upon an American convoy off the coast of North Africa but was beaten off and the ship suffered no damage.
V-12's Arrive From Overseas And Other Units
Giving up petty officer and seaman first ratings to receive once again the rate of apprentice seaman, over 100 men who had been on active duty with the fleet or at shore stations both in American and foreign waters joined the University's V-12 unit March 1, along with nearly 60 civilians and several transfers from other V-12 units; Lt. C. A. Michelman, commanding officer of the V-12 unit, announced recently.
Although a few of the men from active duty had not yet received a petty officer rating, the majority of the men wore rating badges of one to three stripes beneath their branch
Jay Janes to Give Jamboree for Navy, Army, and Civilians
(continued to page four)
Plans for the annual Jay Jane Jamboree, to be given at 4:30 p.m. Friday, March 17, in the Union lounge, were made yesterday at the organization's meeting in the Pine room of the Union building.
This year, the Jamboree will be given not only for members of the Jay Janes, but for all men and women of the University, including members of the Army and Navy units.
The Jamboree will have a St. Patrick's Day theme, Alice Goff, chairman announced. Refreshments will be served and an hour of dancing in the lounge will follow.
Major Taylor Moved From K-State Here
Maj. Delos C. Taylor, (C.A.C.), a former member of the ROTC staff of Lt. Col. Watson L. McMorris at Kansas State College, has been assigned to the AST Su No. 3704 here. Major Taylor has been ordered to his new post upon the special request of the local ASTP Commandant, Col. McMorris.
Johnson Rites Today at 3 p.m.
Funeral services are being held at 3 p.m. today at the First Presbyterian church for Prof. William Hamilton Johnson, 87, former faculty member at the University from 1903 to 1932. He died at 11 p.m. Tuesday at the Lawrence Memorial hospital, where he was being treated for a fractured hip resulting from a fall at his home Feb. 19.
Professor Johnson became a member of the University faculty in 1903 and began his work of improving Kansas high schools. Before his appointment to the faculty of the University, he was the head of the department of history and political science at Kansas State Normal, now Emporia State Teachers College.
He took charge of the appointment bureau in the University in 1915, and nine years later became the head of University High, then known as Oread Training School. From 1903 to 1915 Professor Johnson was state high school supervisor. Since his retirement he had been working on a history of education in Kansas. He also wrote several bulletins on the ways of raising the standards of high schools.
Born in Delphi, Ind., Feb. 25, 1858,
Professor Johnson moved with his family to Kansas as a young boy.
He attended Ottawa University and received his A.B. degree from the University of Kansas in 1885. He received his M.A. degree at Johns Hopkins University. Before teaching at Emporia State Teachers College,
he taught in Lawrence, Emporia, and Helena, Mont., high schools.
Professor Johnson was married to Helen Scott of Emporia in 1891. He is survived by one son, W. S. Johnson of Jefferson City, Mo., and one sister, Mrs. James Kerr of Ottawa. The Rev. Theodore Aszman is in charge of funeral services, and burial will be in Oak Hill cemetery.

Dr. Nash Named To Direct Home For Delinguents

Dr. Nash is professor of education and director of the educational clinic of the University. He has been a member of the advisory o commission of children's institutions

will not open for operation until May 1 because of difficulties in obtaining the staff and remodeling the building.
The establishment of the home will provide a change from the turning over of children by juvenile courts to charitable societies for care or the sending of delinquent children to the boys' industrial school at Topeka or the girls' industrial school at Beloit. Under the new organization the juvenile court judges are permitted to send only babies to societies and no children may be sent to any institution except the receiving home.
Band Leader Comes to Alma Mater To Play for Junior-Senior Prom
Two Courses Withdrawn By School of Business
At the receiving home a juvenile delinquent will be observed and a report will then be sent to the juvenile court judge telling of the findings and making recommendations as to what should then be done for the child's welfare.
Prof. F. T. Stockton, Dean of the School of Business, has announced that the Public Utilities and Property Insurance courses have been withdrawn because of the light enrollment, and the instructors of the courses have been assigned to new work.
Interviewed in Kansas City, Mr. Downs said he was looking forward to returning to his alma mater and that he hoped the Junior Prom would be a great success.
ASTP's Bid Farewell To Clark in Assembly
At one time Mr. Downs was the only Negro to play in the 104-man Lensing Symphony Orchestra.
As a student at the University Mr. Downs worked at the Sig Alph house. He was also employed at the Beta house where his main assignment was peeling potatoes. He left the Beta kitchen to go on tour as a piano player.
When Chauneyce Downs arrives in Lawrence with his band to play at the Junior From Saturday it will be more or less a return engagement. The Negro band leader was a student at the University from 1921 to 1923 and played for many Mt. Oread dances during his college career.
Thirty gallons of ice cream, 25 cases of coca cola, 75 dozen doughnuts, 40 dozen cookies, and 50 cartons of cigarettes were consumed by ASTP trainees last night in a farewell assembly for Capt. Benjamin F. Clark (Inf.). The party was held in the mess hall after 9:30 study hall.
As a student, Mr. Downs did not have his own organization — he played in Buddy Rogers' band. Finally he left Rogers to go on tour with Hattie McDaniel, celebrated Negro star of "Gone With the Wind." Miss McDaniel was just starting on her dramatic career.
After interviewing two candidates, the Jayhawker board elected Mary Morrill, former secretary of the magazine, to be editor for the remaining term to fill the vacancy left by Janet Marvin.
"The occasion was in observance of the departure of Capt. Clark whose efficient and loyal service as adjutant of the ASTP has been outstanding." stated Lt. Col. Watson L. McMorris. "The men took this opportunity to show their appreciation of the interest shown by Captain Clark in their personal welfare and technical progress in the program."
Captain Clark will leave Lawrence Friday to assume duties as professor of military science and tactics at the Omaha, Nebr., high schools.
Morrill Editor Of Jayhawker
Necessary experience for the position, according to Karl Klooz, chariman of the Jayhawker board, included high scholastic standing, either a journalism major or experience in journalism course, and preferably some past experience in the publishing of school annuals.
Virginia Schaefer, College sophomore, was recently appointed business manager of the magazine to replace Bob Ramsey, V-12, who resigned last semester because of his restricted program.
The board will meet again within the next two months to select a new editor and business manager for the coming academic year.
Barr Quits Pastorate To Teach Full Time
In order to devote his full time to teaching in the Bible College here, Rev. Harold Barr, pastor of the First Christian Church, has announced his resignation from the church's pulpit to become effective July 1.
Rev. Barr has been pastor of the Christian Church for seven years. He came to Lawrence from Liberty, Mo., where he had been pastor of the First Christian Church for 13 years.
Vander Werf to Lead AAUW Discussion
Prof. Calvin Vander Werf, assistant professor of chemistry, will lead a panel discussion on "The Coning Peace and Our Part in It" following a dinner to be given by the American Association of University Women at 6:30 this evening at the Hearth.
W. E. Sandelius, professor of political science; Robert McNair Davis, professor of law; and George R. Rinehart, assistant professor of journalism, will assist Professor Vander Werf in the program, which was planned under the direction of the international relations committee of the AAUW.

Trapp Family Will Present Unique Concert
The Trapp Family Singers, composed of seven sisters and their mother, will present a concert of unusual old church and folk music of many lands next Monday in Hoch auditorium.
Baroness Maria Augusta von Trapp and her daughters, Johanna, Agatha, Hedwig, Maria, Martina, Rosemary, and Eleanore, comprise this unique family group, which is under the conductorship and musical directio n of the family priest, the Rev. Franz Wasner. In addition to singing, all of the performers are talented in the playing of such rarely-heard ancient instruments as the recorder, spinet, and viol de gamba.
The appearance of the Trapp Family Singers in Lawrence is one of more than ninety concerts being presented by the Baroness and her daughters in leading cities from coast to coast on the family's fourth transcontinental American tour. On Monday the musical group will appear in the colorful peasant costumes of their native Austria.
Helen Edith Yount and Louis Arnauld Weidman, both seniors in the school of law, were among the seven young lawyers admitted to practice yesterday by the Kansas supreme court.
In addition to a group of seidom-performed music for the sixteenth century blockflutes, spinets or virginals, and viols dama gambal varying sizes, the Trapp family will sing folk songs of the Austrian Alps. Also on the program are performances of several recently completed transcriptions by the Rev. Wasner. These will include popular American and English folk melodies which the family have assimilated on their concert travels, and new settings for the "Londonderry Air." "Home on the Range," and "My Old Kentucky Home."
Two Law Students Admitted to Practice
Activity tickets will admit students, and others may obtain tickets at the School of Fine Arts office in Frank Strong hall.
The group was one of the smallest to be admitted in recent years. Miss Yount, whose home is in Galena, is president of Campus house and a member of PWCL senate.
Weidman has served during the past semester as Chief Justice of the Student Court. His home is in Lawrence.
Other law students admitted to practice with the two University students were Frederick David, Swoyer, Winfield; Clair Warren Rodgers, Mankato; Joseph Skubitz, Arma; Louis H. Plummer, and Roy Clayton Garvin, both of Kansas City.
Crafton to Speak in Ottawa
Allen Crafton, professor of speech, will go to Ottawa next Monday to speak at the First Methodist church. His subject will be "This Is Kansas."

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Compromise Measure Only Adds Confusion To Soldier Vote Scrap
Latest addition to the confusion of the Federal ballot scrap is the "compromise" agreement worked out by the Senate and House conferences March 2. After agreeing that a Federal ballot is necessary the conferences proceeded to restrict it in such a way that only a minority of soldiers would ever see a Federal ballot.
The "compromise" measure would restrict the Federal ballot to use abroad only and allow federal ballots overseas to only those soldiers whose individual state legislatures give special permission. Furthermore an overseas soldier would have to indicate his desire to vote before Sept. 1 and have unsuccessfully applied for a state ballot. Final restriction would demand that the overseas soldier take an oath on Oct. 1 that the state ballot for which he applied hadn't arrived, before he could get a Federal ballot.
No doubt the able Congressmen labored long and hard to concoct their "compromise" measure. It is a pity that they had to go to so much trouble. President Roosevelt has given the impression that he will veto the measure, if it is passed. With Congressional temperatures still raging, however, a Presidential veto doesn't amount to what it used to, and the measure might become a law. In case the "compromise" measure becomes a law it will be a neat trick of replacing the devil with the deep blue sea.
The complications arising from the state ballot would keep just about the same number of soldiers from voting as would the proposed measure. It is evident, however, that Congressmen have come to the conclusion that the folks back home are looking for something more substantial than the state ballot for soldiers.
Riggs Will Describe Bolivia of Past Age
Life in the mountain valleys of southern Bolivia in a past age will be described by Elmer S. Riggs, a KU graduate who is a member of the scientific staff of the Field Museum, at 3:30 Sunday afternoon in Green Hall: Mr. Riggs is honorary curator of paleontology at Dyche museum. His lecture is given under the auspices of the University museum of natural history.
In his various travels through the out-of-the-way corners of the world Mr. Riggs spend five years in scientific work for Field museum in South America. The lecture will take the audience among the quaint hill-people of the Bolivian region, show many colored photographs of the rock formations, of the people, and of the strange animals that inhabited South America in a past age. Mr. Riggs will explain how the native South American mammals met and mingled with a tide of immigrant mammals from North America and how the newcomers in time supplanted the native stocks of animals.

Iowa State Finally Accepts Tourney Bid
Dr. King said a special request was made by the committee for "the sake of the tournament."
"We believe," said the chairman, "that Iowa State is the logical choice to represent the fifth district."
Iowa State was again asked last night to compete in the N. C. A. A. western basketball playoffs in Kansas City, March 24-25. The request came from Dr. H. H. King of Kansas State, chairman of the selection committee. In a later announcement from Ames came the acceptance of the offer by the Iowa State Athletic council. This puts the Cyclones in the tournament with Arkansas, Iowa, and Pepperdine college of Los Angeles.
Ship's Company Tops S.O.W. Techs 79-33
The acceptance of Iowa State to enter the play-offs places two Iowa schools in the tourney, as the University of Iowa has already accepted an invitation to serve as an alternate for the Rocky Mountain area, where Utah, its squad wrecked by the draft, was unable to represent the conference.
With scorekeeper Lee Haggerdorn and Ensign H. L. Ware pouring 25 and 24 points respectively through the net, the Ship's Company defeated the S.Q.W. Techs, 79-33 last night in the most decisive victory yet scored in Lawrence league play.
The S.O.W. team, lacking players, plugged their squad with V-12's but were still unable to stop the rampaging pair. Barnes, V-12'er, led the SOW scoring with 12 points.
In the other game of the evening, the V-12'ers ran over the MM's 57-2, with Scott, PT 7, leading the way with 13 points. Schimeuz, a newcomer to the V-12 school, and Koskela, veteran MM high scorer, shared second place scoring honors with 10 points each.
Tonight the V-12's are definitely favored in their meeting with the S.O.W. Techs., and the Ship's Company should have no trouble with the MM's in the second game of the evening.
Machine Shopwork offered
Forty-eight hours of machine shop work were included in an economics seminar on production problems at Mount Holyoks college.

insignia. One man, from the Pacific theater, held the rating of chief petty officer, Lieutenant Michelman said.
Included in the branches of service represented by the insignias are pharmacist's mates, motor mechanics electrician's mates, aviation machinists, machinist's mates, under-water soundmen, and metalmilsms.
Campaign ribbons and battle stars decorate the dress blues of many men, telling of duty in the African theater, the Atlantic, the Caribbean, the Aleutians, at Hawaii, and in the Far Pacific. Several men wear "hash" marks, a red diagonal stripe on the sleeve designating four years of service.
The men were selected from active duty for V-12 training by competitive examinations given on their ship or at shore stations and will be given the regular engineering or premedic curriculum here. Upon the completion of their schedules the men will be sent to midshipman schools and then receive commissions as ensigns.
Sportorials By Charles Moffett
We are inclined to agree with Dr. F. C. Allen that Cliff Rock of Kansas State turned in the best coaching job in the Big Six for the material available. All season long the Wild-cats had plenty of hustle and at times gave some of the better teams some anxious moments. But the greatest tribute to Rock came when his boys defeated Nebraska. This upset was indeed surprising for the entire starting five of K-State was lost to the armed forces as the season progressed. However, the Wildcat reserves came through for their coach and made his first year in the Conference a good one.

"Yuh mean there's a WAR on! "
- Not long ago, the papers carried a story of two hermit brothers who wandered into town and found to their great surprise that America was at war.
Probably the prices they had to pay for food and supplies gave them the first sharp, shocking realization that something was happening.
Even though almost everything else costs more in war, the price of household electricity has stayed at the low pre-war level. Moreover, every war industry has had ample electric power, and all essential civilian needs have been satisfied.
At least, in the unlikely event that their cave is wired for electricity, you can be sure that they never noticed the war in their electric bills!
We're proud of the big war job our industry has done - by careful planning, hard work, and good business management. We're proud to have a part in that job—and hope that you'll never know there's a war on-by looking at your electric bill!

Ticket Sales Assure Success Of Junior Prom
Chauncey Downs and his orchestra arrive tomorrow night for the Junior prom. Already 200 tickets have been sold for the formal varsity, all classes cooperating to help the juniors make the dance a success, according to Heloise Hillbrand, University dance manager.
The 12-piece negro band is the second this year to come to the campus for University dance. The ticket sale before the night of the dance has insured success of the prom, Miss Hillbrand stated. Don Alderson and Virginia Rader, representing the Junior class, are assisting in the sale of tickets and plans for the dance.
Chauncey Downs a former University student, comes to the campus from his recent engagements at Meadow Acres, Topeka, the Frog Hop, St. Joseph, and the Pla-Mor, Kansas City. He is scheduled to appear with his orchestra on the Fitch band wagon.
The Junior prom takes place to-
trow night in Hoch auditorium,
9 to 12, and is the first formal dance
this year for the whole University.
Navy Names New Student Officers For This Semester
Clinton C. Sloan, Missoula, Mont., was named as the new regiment commander of the V-12 unit by Ensign H. L. Ware at general quarters held in Hoch auditorium Wednesday night. Sloan, PT 6, will thus assume the duties administered last semester by William Hargrave, who has been transferred to other V-12 training.
Riggs Lecture Sunday Afternoon
The E. S. Riggs lecture will be at
8:30 p.m. Sunday in Green hall,
Retaining the division of the houses into the Pacific and Atlantic fleets, John R. Stevenson, PT 2, Tescott, was named as battalion commander of the Pacific fleet, and John J. Wildgren, PT 8, Canon City, Colo., was appointed as commander of the Atlantic fleet.
The eight acting chief petty officers of the PT's were also named. They are Roland Ostlund, PT 1; G. Harald Frank, PT 2; Warren Riegle, 3; Gordon Erickson, PT 4; Charles Delano, PT 5; James Teener, PT 6; Harold McSpadden, PT 7; and Edwin W. Blase, PT 8.
The student officer system, set up last semester under the direct control of Ensign Ware, is similar to that used in the Naval Academy, and facilitates the supervision of the large number of trainees in the unit. Arm insignias are expected soon, and will be worn by all the student officers.
As assistants to Regimental Commander Sloan, Ensign Ware named George E. Verhage, PT 7, Downs, and Robert Lillibridge, PT 3, Hutchinson.
The positions of company commanders, officers who were in charge of two PT's, were abandoned this semester, Ensign Ware announced.
J. F. Lynn Is Missing In European Action
Lt. James F. Lynn, a student from 1939-41, has been missing in action over Germany since February 21. A pilot on a Flying Fortress, Lieutenant Lynn was recently awarded the air medal and Oak Leaf clusters.
He was employed as a salesman at the Firestone Tire and Rubber company in Kansas City before enlisting in the air corps in October 1942.
He is the son of Mr. and Mrs James E. Lynn of Johnson County.
Youths Advised To Take Exams
Seventeen-year old Kansas high school boys are being urged to take the army-navy examinations for pre-induction college training by Deane W. Malott, Chancellor of the University, and Milton S. Eisenhower, president of Kansas State College.
The two Kansas educators issued a joint statement while they were in Washington to determine how their institutions may operate most practically in the war program.
According to their statement, "The joint army-navy examinations will be held March 15 at various high schools and colleges in Kansas. Any boy who will complete his high school work by July 1 is eligible."
Boys who pass the examinations may choose between army or navy training. They will be sent to college at government expense and will take courses in mathematics, physics, chemistry, English, and other subjects.
Chancellor Malott and President Eisenhower said, "Trainees will serve their country well and will be better prepared for the future if they obtain even a limited amount of college work now.
"All trainees will remain in college at least until they are 18. In the army training program, each boy will receive at least six months' training. In the navy the length of the program will depend upon the type of training selected."
Mu Phi Epsilon, honorary musical fraternity for women, entertained with a luncheon at the Colonial yesterday, honoring Mrs. Ava Comin Case of Ann Arbor, Mich., national president.
Both educators said that their schools have all the equipment and personnel essential to sound preinduction training programs, and that their facilities are at the disposal of the government.
An informal program was presented in the afternoon to active and alumnae Lawrence members who were present, said Mrs. Robert Kloepter, president.

Hoefgen Dies Today in First State Hanging
Lansing, (INS)—Earnest Hoefgen, 32-year old veteran of crime, was hanged today at Lansing for the murder of Bruce Smoll, 18-year-old Kansas State College student. The hanging was the first legal execution under state jurisdiction in Kansas since 1870. The trap was sprung by a professional hangman from a near-by state at 1:01 a.m. and Hoefgen was pronounced dead fifteen minutes later. Among the witnesses of the execution was A. E. Smoll of Wichita, father of the youth Hoefgen was convicted of slaying.
Governor Andrew Schoepel indicated yesterday that he would take no steps to halt the execution and no appeal to the supreme court of the state was taken.
Hoefgen was credited with two slayings. The first was the hatchet murder of George Richet, Independence, at Wichita Falls, Tex., and Bruce Smoll, 18-year-old Kansas State student.
Report Demands Eire Oust Nazis
Washington, (INS)—Secretary of State, Cordell Hull, promised today to issue within the next 24 hours a formal statement on reports the United States government has demanded that Eire close the German and Japanese legation in Dublin. Hull said he was taking up immediately all aspects of the Irish situation. The American and British governments are known to have become increasingly concerned over the activities of the Axis representatives in Eire.
Scholarships Given To English Majors
BUY WAR STAMPS
Prof. Josephine Burnham of the English department, chairman of the Edna Osborne Whitcomb scholarship committee, announced this week the awarding of scholarships to Barbara Duree, College senior; Mrs. Juana Riedel, College junior; and Florence Helmk, College senior.
The Edna Osborne Whitecomb Scholarship Fund was established through the bequest of Mrs. Whitcomb, widow of Prof. S. L. Whitcomb, a former member of the English department, to provide scholarships for self-supporting women English majors with an interest in the field of original writing. Because the scholarship had not been awarded for two years, the committee found that there was enough money available to appoint three scholarships at this time.

In his place Lt. John T. Manning, Jr., has been assigned to command the detachment. Lieutenant Manning is a former member of the ASTP staff at the University.
Band and Orchestra Have 14 Vacancies According to Wiley
Prof. Russell L. Wiley, director of the University band and orchestra, announced today that there are eight vacancies in the orchestra and six unfilled places in the band.
Starting the semester with a 75-piece band and a 67-piece orchestra, Professor Wiley listed openings in the orchestra:
One bassoon, two french horns,
two violas, two violins, one tympany.
In the band, three cornets, one french horn, one tuba, and one baritone are needed.
"Any student interested in playing in either organization should see me this week," said Professor Wiley. "We have instruments on hand to furnish to students playing in the band or orchestra."
"We are preparing a beautiful orchestral program for this semester," commented Professor Wiley. "I believe that it is even more delightful than the winter concert as it is more pretentious."
In preparation for the spring concert in May, the orchestra is practicing Brahm's "Second Symphony." "A Midsummer Night's Dream," overture by Mendelssohn; "Rumanian Rhapsody Number One" by Enesco; Wieniawski's "Concerto in D Minor;" for the violin and orchestra with Doris Sheppard as soloist; "Caucasian Sketches" by Ivanov; and music from "Romeo and Juliet" by Tehaikovsky.
The band is practicing "Symphony in C Minor" by Ernest Williams; "Celtic Set," a suite of reels and hornpipes by Henry Cowell;" "Die Fledermaus" by Strauss; "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes." "The Toy Trumpet" by Raymond Scott; "Scene du Bal" by Eric Coates; and "El Relicario" by Padilla.
For the Music Week Festival which will be the third week in April, the orchestra will do "Stabat Mater" by Rossini with the A Cappella choir, under the direction of D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts.
Barbara LeSuer and Elaine Sehon, both College sophomores, have entered the University of Kansas hospital in Kansas City as nurse cadets.

The School of Engineering and Architecture announced this week that the photo-elastic laboratory has now been completed and its facilities are available to the engineering technicians of Kansas. The laboratory has been developed and built in conjunction with plastics research at the University, for which the Kansas Industrial Development commission has appropriated $25,000.
CVC will sponsor the Fed Cross drive directed to civilian students on the campus, which will begin next week. Betty Jo O'Neal, major, has announced.
Setting their goal at $1,000, an average of $1 from each student on the campus, CVC made final plans for their campaign at the regular meeting last night in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building.
Laboratory Finished For Stress Analysis
Serving on the committee to contact civilian students are Shirley Kelly, Barbara Johnson, Betty Leibbrand, Margaret Ott, Mary Louise Rowse, and Mildred Thomson.
The organized houses will be given an opportunity Monday evening to subscribe to the Red Cross Fund, and all students not living in such houses will be solicited individually. In the meantime, Miss Marie Miller announced that contributions could be left at the office of the adviser to women by students for whom such an arrangement would be convenient.
The Douglas county Red Cross War Fund campaign which started last Wednesday morning has been extended several days in an effort to reach the county quota of $29,100, about two-thirds of which has already been obtained.

the laboratory, which has been developed under the supervision of F. L. Brown, professor of applied mechanics in the School of Engineering, is especially valuable in the field of structural engineering in the determination of stress analyses. The methods used employ the polariscope, a source of polarized light. Models of the items to be tested, such as bridge spans, aircraft parts, or any structural material, are made from bakelite or some other transparent plastic.
"The process takes the guesswork out of stress analysis," declared Professor Brown. "A lot of problems considered difficult by old methods are solved easily by the principles of photo-elasticity."

Patsy Piller Featured In Graduate Magazine Distributed Today
Patsy Piller is "Pin Up Girl No. 1" in the current issue of the Graduate magazine, for her picture and short biographical sketch are the first to be published in the new feature, which is included for the benefit of KU servicemen.
The latest issue, which is being mailed today, also includes a twopage tribute to William Allen White, written by Ruth Jane Garver Gagliardo, '22, wife of Prof. D. Gagliardo of the School of Business who is now on leave. Mrs. Gagliardo's article contains new and vivid descriptions of the late editor, with whom she was associated in Emporia. Accompanying pictures add interest to her story, and especially noteworthy is the picture of the now famous party of students who, under the guidance of Prof. F. H. Snow, went on a summer field trip to Estes Park, Colo., in 1889.
Prominent Grads Introduced
Two exceptionally prominent graduates, Frank Rising, '24, and Edmund Learned, '22, are introduced in this latest magazine, and almost a page is devoted to each. Because his son and daughter, Don and Betty, are now students at the University, Edmund Learned is perhaps more familiar to campus readers of the magazine. As special consultant to the commanding general of army air forces for program control, Mr. Learned has "contributed greatly to the effectiveness of America's war punch," the article remarks.
Five pages cover news of the graduates in the services, and four pages carry items about many civillian alumni. There are also several short "Notes on Professors."

Outdoor Track To Begin Soon; Coach Gives Call
With better weather promised plans are under way for the outdoor track season.
Although some of the men out for track were transferred in the navy program, most of them still remain on the campus, along with the civilians still out for the spring sport. The Jayhawkers fared better in the indoor meets than was expected, according to Coach Ray Kanehl, but the outdoor season will be tougher and much work is yet to be done in order to have a contending team.
Anyone interested in track is urged by Coach Kanehl to go to the stadium any afternoon and check out equipment. Coach Kanehl has no way of knowing all the possible track material on the Hill, but he is convinced that there are several good prospects that are not out for practice. Besides these, there are many men who may have possibilities but do not have initiative to report.
report.
Kaneli had an excellent record at Wichita High School East and is capable of putting a fine Kansas team in the field if only the material were available. During the indoor track season 64 men, at one time or another, checked out equipment and now only 31 are left. So the need for track men is urgent.
Coach Kaneh intends to have things going at full swing by Monday because it won't be too long before track meets will be held. A dual meet with Iowa State is already scheduled for May 13 at Ames. On the following Saturday will be the Big Six meet. An attempt is being made to schedule other meets with the remainder of the conference schools.

The MM vs. V-12 game originally scheduled for Thursday night has been cancelled in favor of this game.
Chief Starkey, who will pick and coach the all stars, admits that his pupils will be at a disadvantage from lack of practice together, but he has given warning to Coach Ensign Ware and the V-12's that he and his picked men "have blood in their eyes."

A slight admission charge, twenty-five cents for service men and forty cents for civilians, will be charged for the game. It is planned to use the proceeds to sponsor a party for the teams of the league. ___
V-12's and S.C. Beat S.O.W.and MM's
The V.12's, led by Pyle. Heim, and Schimenz with 18, 17, and 16 points respectively lengthened their string of victories by rolling over the S. O. W. Techs. 75-22 in Lawrence league play last night. The S. O. W. team, playing their last game, again lacked players, and were forced to bolster their ranks with extra V-12 men.
In the second game of the evening, the Ship's Company downed the MM's 40-30 to increase their hold on third place in the league's standings. Ware, with 16, and Pohl, with 9, led the S.C. scoring, while Koskela led the MM attack with 13 points.

RED CROSS---
(continued from page one)
Red Cross Drive on the campus, has announced that a student drive is now being organized under the supervision of Miss Marie Miller, assistant adviser to women, to be conducted next week. Specify announcements are to be made Friday.
In the Red Cross Drive held among the faculty and employees, $10 or above was given by 86 members. From the employees of the Union building came a contribution of $126. By special coverage of curetakers and building and grounds employees $70 was raised. Both of these groups have given additional amounts through the regular University Drive. In the Union building one cook alone gave $35.
The AST's have already contributed $200 toward the Red Cross Drive, Col. W. L. McMorris, has announced. Contributions are still continuing, and a much larger total is expected, he said.
After the performance of the play "Close Quarters" Allen Crafton, professor of speech, made an appeal for the Red Cross and more than $25 was collected by the Jap Janes, women's pep organization.
Professor Buehler announced that in the main student Drive, the committee expects the individual students to give at least an amount equivalent to the price of several shows or of "For Whom the Bell Tolls." This Drive differs from former drives in that it is basically a War Fund Drive with 85 per cent going directly to the war fund. The Red Cross is the only organization that is allowed to follow men to the front.
Professor Buehler expressed his appreciation for the generous response that had been made everywhere to the campaign, and urged liberal student participation in orits quota as it has done in every der that the University could meet war drive that has been set up during the current struggle.

Campaign to Top $1,000 Begins For Red Cross
The University Red Cross drive got under way today with the solicitation of civilian students under the supervision of the Coed Volunteer Corps, announced Betty Jo O'Neal, major of the corps.
Tonight, students in organized houses will be given an opportunity to subscribe to the Red Cross, and all other students will be contacted individually in an endeavor to reach and top the goal of $1,000 that has been set for the University civilian students.
E. C. Buehler, University chairman for the Douglas county Red Cross drive, said today that all faculty and staff contributions or pledges should be in his office not later than Thursday of this week and urges those who have not subscribed to do so at once in order to save the necessity of telephoning and additional clerical work.
Professor Buehler announced that to date 106 members of the faculty staff had subscribed $10 or more
Hitler Fails to Give Memorial Day Speech
(International News Service)
Failure of Adolph Hitler to deliver his usual memorial day speech to the German people aroused speculations over his whereabouts and well being today. Although the Fuerher's armies on a 400 mile front in the lower Urkraine virtually collapsed, and although once again American and British planes swept the skies over Europe, there was no sign of the leader to cheer a bomb-weary populace, galvanize a beaten army, or reinstill life and vigor in a tattered air force that was once invisible.
Lt. Raymond Receives High British Citation
Lt. Robert S. Raymond, a former University student, received the British counterpart of the American Distinguished Flying Cross at the British Embassy in Washington last week.
Lt. Raymond is 31 years old, a veteran of the R.A.F. now with the AAF at Yale University, where he has been both a student and an instructor.
Recently he was married to Elizabeth Raymond, daughter of Prof and Mrs. F. N. Raymond of Lawrence.
Lt. Raymond, who served as a British bomber pilot, went on 30 combat missions over Europe in two and a half years of service.
Accompanying his decoration was the following citation: "On all occasions this officer has shown greatest determination in locating and bombing his target. Pilot Officer Raymond has taken part in attacks on the enemy's most important and heavily defended targets. He inspired his crew by his cool and efficient methods and set a magnificent example of courage and devotion to duty throughout the squadron."
Want Orator For Valley Meet Here
Prof. E. C. Buehler today issued an appeal for a University orator to represent K.U. in the Missouri Valley Oratorical contest to be held at the University March 23, 24, and 25. Candidates may speak on any subject, length about 10 minutes, and there are $50 cash prizes—$25 for first place, $15 for second and $10 for third. V-12 students are eligible to enter. Professor Buehler said. He added that any persons interested in entering the contest should contact him not later than Tuesday of this week.
Winning this annual event has become a habit for KU during the past several years, Professor Buehler said. University of Kansas and Kansas State College will be the official hosts. Entries have been received from the following schools:
Texas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, South Dakota, Wichita, Iowa State, K.U and Kansas State.
The University was host to the meet last year.
Trapps Present Concert Tonight
The Trapp Family Singers, refugees of Nazi-invaded Austria, will present a concert of folk and old church music at 8:20 p.m., tonight in Hoch auditorium.
Baroness von Trapp and her seven daughters, directed by the Rev. Franz Wasner, will play ancient and rarely-heard instruments and sing folk songs of the Austrian Alps, calling upon their skill at yodeling. The seldom-performed masses and motets of Palestrina, Orlando di Lasso, and Josquin des Pres and the compositions for blockfleud, spinet, and viol da gambe by Sammarini, L'Oeillet, and other old masters will also be a part of the program.
Virgil Thomson, critic of the New York Herald-Tribune, wrote of the Baroness and her progeny, "They are harmonious, very quiet, straightforward, and wholly united at such moments. They don't go in for theatrical pathos or vocal effect."
In New York's PM, critic Henry Simon wrote of the 'Trapps' recent New York concerts, "The concerts are a deeply moving reminder of a simple, righteous old-fashioned form of family and national life that is threatened with extinction."
The program which will be divided into five parts, will include such well known pieces as "Ave Maria" (Canon) by Mozart and "The Lord Is My Shepherd" (Psalm 23) by Schubert. Also on the evening's program will be a demonstration of the ancient art of the yodeling of their native Tyrol as presented by the Trapp singers.
"What makes the Trapp Family Singers doubly appealing," the reviewer of the Hartford, Conn., Courant sums up, "is that word 'family.'"
"Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" by Bach will be one of the religious offerings of the program. "Evening Prayer" from Hansel and Gretel by E. Humperdinck will conclude the program. Activity tickets will admit students and others may obtain tickets at the box office this evening.

Davidson Takes New Position
The resignation of K. W. Davidson, director of information at the University of Kansas, effective April 1, was announced today by Chancellor Deane W. Malot.
Mr. Davidson will join the staff of the United Farm Agency, farm sales brokers, of Kansas City, Mo., operating in seven mid-western states. He will be in charge of advertising and promotion for the Kansas City firm. His succesor at the University has not been announced.
Mr. Davidson came to the University in 1940 from the Emporia Gazette where he had served as business manager for eight years. Prior to his work for William Allen White, he had been associated with the College of Emporia and Baker University. From 1922 to 1924, he was connected with the New York Bureau of the United Press Association.
The Davidson family, who live at 2244 New Hampshire, will continue residence in Lawrence probably until June.
Initial arrangements have been made by D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, and members of the School of Fine Arts music faculty to entertain the District Music Festival at the University on Friday, April 28.
K.U. Will Be Host To Music Festival
There has been a growing demand for a resuming of the music festivals over the state on a limited scale at least, Dean Swarthout said. The contest at the University in April will feature instrumental and vocal ensemble groups not exceeding 15 entrants.
Clifford Dean, superintendent of Lawrence schools, will act as local chairman of arrangement, and the full resources of the University will be at the disposal of the musical visitors, who are expected to total several hundred, said Dean Swarthout.

A short fall term of six weeks will begin September 13 with orientation on Sept. 13 and 14, registration and enrollment on September 15 and 16, and classes beginning September 18. The examinations for the term will end October 27, and the regular winter term will begin four days later.
Gasoline 'A' Rations May Receive New Cut
Washington, (INS)—Col. Bryan Houston, OPA rationing chief said today that the agency is considering an "equalization" program which would cut the basic A gasoline figure now in effect along the east coast. If the gasoline cut is effective, it probably would be accomplished by making the A coupon series effective for 3 months instead of 2 as at present.

The Army's announcement that material aid has been going to China since April brings to mind Madame Chiang Kai-Shek's visit to the United States last April. Evidently her plea for aid to China did not go unheeded.
Organizer of the New Life Movement in China—to promote an enlightened and more sanitary China and to overcome the superstitions and doubts built up through the centuries—the Generallissimo's wife always manages to look well-groomed as she goes about her work with war orphans and among women in industry.
Often acclaimed the greatest woman in the public eye today. Madame Chiang Kai-Shek is a petite, vivacious woman who isn't afraid of soiling her hands by dressing soldier's wounds or doing any other physical relief work.
When she visited the United States newspapermen were awed by her eloquence before Congress and amazed by her combination of brains and beauty during the press conference which followed.
The American people caught their breath at the sound of true greatness when they heard the Madame say to the massed crowd at Madison Square Garden, "No matter what we have undergone and suffered we must try to forgive those who injured us and remember only the lesson gained thereby." An idealist? Certainly. But also a woman admired internationally and loved by the people of her country for the practical aid she is giving them.
Wellesley educated Madame Chiang Kai-Shek attributes her success to Christianity, which she views as a practical means of making her life simple, wise and great. Admired by all who know or have heard of her, the Madame is destined to become an even greater force in the world of tomorrow.

Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
Promoted by Bob Harwi, Phi Gam last year, now on furlough, an army-navy musical comedy was planned in the Fiji menage last weekend. On the program will be a special number for the V-12, "Shoo, Shoo, Baby, Your Papa's Off to His English Class." Also a number for the marines which goes something like this, "A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H I got a gal on Guadalcanal. She's not so white, but she's all right at night on Guadalcanal."
During the entire show, infantrymen will run up and down the aisles sticking bayonets into members of the audience.

Scripture“I’ve never seen a purple car, I never hope”—etc. Tuck Sifers, army medic, went down after his car which had just been painted and was led to a dark corner of the garage. The garage man and Tuck exchanged remarks on what a beautiful shade of blue it really was, and Tuck drove out into the light. All the way down the street he noticed people stopping in their tracks to stare, and girls waving and whistling. But he didn’t suspect anything until he picked up fraternity brother Jim Roderick and caught the queer look on the latter’s face. Jumping
Scientists Attend Dr. Debye's Lecture
Not very repulsive: J. F. Kelsey, Sigma Nu, and Bob Kirk, both army medics, were puzzling over an incision to be made down the middle of their laboratory cadaver, an interesting ex-seaman covered with tattoos of nude women. When their instructor came around, he showed them how to cut around the largest and most skelptly tattoo located squarely on the patient's chest. "Do it that way," said the teacher with a .wink, "and I'll show you how to tan that woman."
The body was identified by . . . Dean Huebert and Jack Giesch were having a fight at the Phi Bete table, and Dean came out ahead, just as dessert ended. Seeking revenge, Giesch trailed Huebert up to the shower room. When the latter had divested himself of all clothing, Jack attacked with a rubber identification stamp. According to the boys, Dean is covered from head to foot with his navy identification (meant for clothing) in indelible ink.

Winner in 1936 of the Nobel prize for outstanding scientific research, Dr. Debye, a native of Holland, has held many important positions in European universities. Before coming to this country, he was professor of physics at the University of Berlin, director of the physical institute at Leipzig, research professor at the Kaiser-Wilhelm Institute in Germany, and has been awarded the Lorenz, Rumford, Fairaday and Franklin scientific medals.
Until recently, the lowest temperature obtainable has been nearly two degrees above absolute zero, but by attacking the disorder hidden in the nucleus of the atom, this point has been lowered, Dr Debye explained in his lecture which had as its theme, "The Magnetic Approach to Absolute Zero."

War Evacuee Relates Adventures in China
Phone 978
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Monday, March 13, 1944
Relating her experiences as a missionary in China and a prisoner of war, Miss Blanche Edgar, evacuee from China talked to the Young People's group of the First Baptist church Sunday afternoon at 1124 Mississippi street. Miss Edgar was one of hte repatriated prisoners who returned on the Gripsholm in the exchange last March.
Notices due at News Bureau, 8 Journal
ism, at 10 a.m. on day of publication.
Going to China in 1923. Miss Edgar taught in the schools there, first in boys' schools and later in what would be equal to our high schools where both boys and girls attended. She came back to the United States for a short time, but returned to China despite the fact that Japan had declared war on China.
Miss Edgar was teaching in Shanghai at the time Pearl Harbor was bombed and was taken to a relocation camp with other missionaries and civilians. So many rumors of being exchanged were circulated during the months spent in the camp that when the word did come that they were to be sent home, the prisoners would not believe it.

Allen Says Game Causes Poor Officiating
That the fault of poor officiating lies not with the officials, but with the rules committee and the game of basketball was the contention of Dr. F. C. Allen, Kansas basketball coach, here today as he pointed out that under the present rules of basketball, good officiating is a rare exception rather than the rule.
"When the center jump was eliminated, the rules committee contributed to the game the semblance of hockey," Dr. Allen declared. "The ball was tossed up at center once and after the toss-up there was a harum-scarum scramble to outrace the opposition to the offensive basket. The players drove faster than good coordination dictated."
Since the spectators have approved of this type of play, they have willingly sacrificed good play for excitement, even though the level of skilled basketball has deteriorated, he said.
Not Officials' Fault
"It is impossible for even the best officials to properly officiate this hurricane type of game," the Mt. Oread mentor pointed out. "Non-fouling is an impossibility with these fast moving players driving down the court. The crowd gets excited and 'rides' the officials because a play is mis-called. In the game of basketball the crowd is right on top of the players and the officials, and the crowd never gets off an official because it is the American game to give him a 'buggy ride'."
In this sort of a game good basketball is sacrificed and the crowd forgets the values of good ball handling, team play and goal shooting, was the contention of Dr. Allen. The crowd allows its jaded nerves to be satisfied with a firewagon brand of the game that does not begin to compare with games in previous years where patterns of play beautifully set up won the plaudits of the admirers.
Against Center Jump Removal
Dr. Allen pointed out that the proponents of the elimination of the center jump made the claim that if this feature were removed, the exceptionaI tall, gangling player would be driven from the game.
"The elimination has taken away many beautiful plays from the game and robbed it of its orderliness and quick surprises of a fighting team stealing the tap from an altitudinous center who controls the
Sportorials By Charles Moffett
We were asked Friday if we didn't think that Bruce Drake of Oklahoma also deserved credit for a fine coaching job during the just completed basketball season. This question came as result of statement agreeing with Dr. Allen that Cliff Rock of Kansas State had turned in the campaign's best coaching job. Naturally, any coach whose team finishes in a tie for first place honors deserves a great deal of credit. Drake had a very young team, one of the youngest in years at the Sooner school. But he had Allie Paine and Grover Ramsey both with considerable experience, to steady the freshmen down. Paine was especially good at this and much of the credit should go to him. He directed the team's play in all games, was a superb defensive player, and always managed to slip in for several points per game.
But the fact remains that Coach Drake did have some veteran players and Rock did not. The Sooner mentor did not have the draft troubles that Rock had, and he had his same team the entire season. After midseason, Rock hardly knew who would be at practice
Chemical Engineers To Elect Officers
Election of officers will be held at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow at a meeting of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers in the Kansas room of the Union building, John B. Anderson, vice-president, announced today.
from one day to the next so rapidly was Uncle Sam taking his boys. But the Wildcats paid off against Nebraska and a great amount of praise is due Rock and his civilian team.
Refreshments will be served and Mr. Anderson has requested that all students interested in chemical engineering be present.
Harry H. Sisler, assistant professor of chemistry, will speak on "The Ammonia System of Compounds," the topic on which he spoke at a recent Sigma Xi meeting. He is repeating it for the benefit of student chemical engineers and all others interested, according to Mr. Anderson.
A proposal is before the Board of Regents of Texas U. to establish a fund for scholarships for returning war veterans.
tip-off. The center jump is gone and it will never be returned. Perhaps there are enough fine, exciting play situations remaining in the game of basketball to attract millions as in the past."
is due Rock and his civilian team
We agree with our friend that Drake deserves credit also, for the way he molded his squad into a championship club. George Edwards of Missouri did a grand job too, with all an civilian team, that tied Kansas for third place and gave both Oklahoma and Iowa State real battles before losing.
Spring training for most of the Major League clubs will begin in about a week. Player shortage troubles will determine a great deal the outcome of the pennant race . . . Many schools over the country are making tentative plans for spring football practice, not knowing who will be around for the games next fall . . . Notre Dame is already preparing for a successful season as usual, having landed several high school stars, whom many colleges would be pleased to have . . . The basketball squad was entertained Thursday night at dinner at the Colonial Tea Room by the Cooperative Club of Lawrence.
Secretarial Class To Meet Evenings
The Secretarial training class, offered through the School of Business and the extension division, will meet at 7 o'clock this evening in room 312 of Fraser Hall, Miss Margaret O'Briant, instructor, has announced.
A preliminary meeting of the class was held last Thursday evening, and a number of students enrolled then. Additional enrollments may be made, however, this evening.
The class will be held in two hour sessions on Mondays and Fridays of each week during the present semester. Instruction will be given in advanced shorthand dictation and transcription correlated to develop skill in taking dictation and transcription from shorthand notes.
Students may enroll under one of the following plans: (1) junior-senior standing (50 hours or more of college work), (2) special student (graduate of high school and 18 years of age or above), (3) noncredit (sufficient practical experience to carry the work on a college level).
Students taking the course for credit will receive three hours of

regular University credit upon completion of the course. A fee of $12 for each student is being charged.
The fund is to be used to build a Student Union building on the campus of the University of Kansas hospitals in Kansas City and was set last week by a spontaneous drive with students and fellow faculty members of Dr. Francisco being the first to give to the fund. Appeals are also being made to the medical societies of Kansas, alumni of the University's School of Medicine, all doctors of the two Kansas Citys, and all doctors in Kansas.
The proposed Student Union building would serve as a gathering place for medical students, a recreation center, a dormitory, a medical library and, possibly, for post-graduate medical instruction, Dr. Tice announced.
With a goal of $200,000 for a memorial fund in honor of Dr. Clarence B. Francisco, professor and head of the department of orthopedic surgery of the School of Medicine before his death on February 23, Dr. Galen M. Tiee of the School of Medicine made an appeal this week to all who knew Dr. Francisco to contribute to the fund which on Friday had reached $2,000.

Old 'Shack Rat' Visits With 'Cub' Reporters On Way to East
Being "Dean of Women" for the army's Air Warning Service in Portland, Ore., is a full time job according to Capt. Kenneth Postlethwaite, a graduate in 1939. Ken, as he was known on the campus, visited his old haunt, the "Shack," last Friday on his way to the east coast where he will await orders to go overseas. It was to an all-girl class in Reporting I that Ken, who asserts he is shy of women, revealed that for the last two years he has been in charge of several hundred civilian volunteer women in the Air Warning Service.
Ken's position on the Daily Kansasan, as a journalism major, was that of drama, music, and even football critic. He says he blushes at the way "I used to 'pan' perfectly decent performances purely for the sake of doing so" and advised beginning reporters not to make the same mistake.
Ken seemed glad to get back to Kansas although his stay was short. "Kansas is not the most beautiful place, but you feel different about it. Kansas have to look for beauty in their own homes and lives rather than in landscape."
Ken was graduated in March, 1940, with an A.B. in journalism. He was a member of Quill Club and Sigma Delta Chi.

41st YEAR
Vesper Program Sunday to Offer Much Variety
The final All-Musical Vespers of the season will be given at 4 p.m. next Sunday in Hoch auditorium by the School of Fine Arts. The program, arranged by Dean D. M. Swarthout, will feature some of the leading musical groups of the University as well as faculty artists.
The University A Cappella Choir will sing numbers from Palestina, Schuetz, Christiansen and Noble Cain. The "Hymn of Praise" for double choir, written in eight independent parts, will have its first hearing. The Negro spiritual arrangement of "The Glory Train" will be the last selection sung by the choral group.
Fourteen advanced violin students, assisted by Waldemar Geltch, professor of violin, will play in unison "Adagio Pathetique" by Godar. This ensemble also performed at the Christmas Vespers.
A faculty vocal quartet consisting Meribah Moore, Irene Peabody, Joseph Wilkins, and David Lawson, will sing Verdi's "Requiem," while the University string quartet will present the final movement of the Schubert "A Minor Quartet."
The program will open with an organ selection by Laurel E. Anderson, University organist, and will close with the University Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Russel L. Wiley, playing the "Overture to Midsummer Night's Dream" by Mendelssohn.
The 21st year of Vespers, the theme was inaugurated by Dean Swarthout when he came to the University in 1923. The program on Sunday afternoon, closing the series for the present year, will be about an hour in length, and will be broadcast over KFKU.
Jay Janes to Solicit V-12 Red Cross Gifts
The V-12 men will be solicited during their luncheon hour tomorrow by members of the Jay Janes for contributions to the Red Cross, according to E. C. Buehler, chairman of the University drive conducted this week by members of the Coed Volunteer Corps. The University goal has been set at $4,000. "Except for civilian students, the University drive is practically completed," said Professor Buehler. "Faculty and employees should send their contributions to me on or before Thursday so that I may make the final report this weekend." The total contributions to date has exceeded the $3,000 mark, added Professor Buehler, and this includes donations by the faculty, employees, and service groups, with the exception of the civilian students, and the V-12's who will be contacted tomorrow.
"I'm confident that the University community will have reached and surpassed the grand total of $4,000 by Saturday," predicted Professor Buehler today.
They Teach Fishing
A course in "Fishes and Fishing in Minnesota" is given every Wednesday night at the U. of Minnesota. About 60 students attend.
Business Office Has Activity Books Ready
Student activity books are now available in the business office of Frank Strong hall, and students are urged to procure them at once, Karl Klooz. bursar, stated this morning.
Although the booklets were to have been ready when the students enrolled, a slight delay in their production prevented them from being finished. Except for those students who enrolled late or those entering the University for the first time this semester, the latter having to wait for their pictures to be developed, the books are now obtainable.
Distinguished by light blue covers, these new tickets furnish admittance to concerts, lectures, and forensics, and provide membership in the Memorial Union and the student governing association, as well as serving as a subscription for the University Daily Kansas.
A-12, V-12 Exams For New Candidates Will Be Tomorrow
The third Army-Navy college qualifying test for candidates who wish to be considered for the Army Specialized Training A-12 Program and the Navy College V-12 Program will be given in Fraser theater at 9 a.m. Wednesday. Students who took the test on April 2 or November 9, 1943, and who are still eligible to apply for the college programs, must take this test if they wish to be considered again.
Any student who has completed high school or is continuing his education in college and who was born between July 2, 1924 and July 1, 1927, inclusive, is eligible.
"Although there are many rumors to the contrary, the U. S. navy is still expanding, and the V-12 program is to be continued," stated Lt. C. A. Michelman, assistant commanding officer of the University V-12 unit. "The urgent need for technically trained young officers continues."
Applicants will be required to indicate on the day of the test their preference for the Army or Navy program. Taking the test does not constitute enlistment in either branch of the armed services, but no change in preference may be made after the day of the test.
"Students desiring to take the test should obtain application blanks in room 121 Fraser and have them signed by their respective deans or by the Registrar," said Dr. A. H. Turney, who is in charge of giving the examinations. "This constitutes a certification of their educational qualifications and must be presented upon admittance."

Trapp Family Plays 8 Encores For Delighted Audience in Hoch
Capturing the very hearts of all who attended the concert last night in Hoch auditorium, the seven young Trapp sisters, together with their mother and their priest, made their first appearance in Lawrence before an audience which warmed to the impressive and unusual performers.
With Kherson firmly in Soviet hands the sister Black Sea naval base of Nikolayev only 28 miles away seemed destined for capture in short order. When Nikolayev goes, Odessa must fall, and the 250,-000 Nazi troops on the Crimean peninsula will be left dangling with nothing but the shell of Stevastolov remaining in their hands as the empty prize of the most costly military campaign in history. Nothing in all the annals of war has approached the breathtaking speed with which the armies of the Ukraine have ripped across the rich soil of Southern Russia, driving before them once great and powerful Nazi筋iments, reduced now to fleeing fragments, concerned only with saving themselves and blind go abandonment of irreplaceable equipment.
"Oh Jesus, Lord Divine, Protect this Child of Mine," composed by Dr. Warner, was the first encore offered by the group. Dr. Wasner wrote this piece when Johannes, the only American-born member of the family, was born four years ago. Baron von Trapp appeared on the stage to be introduced with his family.
Considerable moving by students takes place especially between semesters, he said, and the office staff is usually bothered by dozens of telephone inquiries as to where students are now living. Cards are available in the registrar's office for those who wish to correct their addresses.
It appeared today to be a matter of days or weeks at the most before Hitler's defeated legions are driven entirely out of lower Russia. Stripped of 200,000 men by Soviet bombs and bullets in the last four months, chased across the Dnieper river, and catapulted out of their strongest bases, the Germans now are faced with the worst debacle ever suffered by any peoples bent upon aggression.
Germans Nearly Out of Russia
Eight encores demonstrated the appreciation of the audience for the seven daughters and their Baroness mother. Johanna, Agatha, Hedwig Maria, Martina, Rosemary, Eleanore, and their mother, Baroness Maria von Trapp, appeared in the colorful peasant costumes of their native Austria, and were conducted by their priest, Dr. Franz Wasner.
The Trapp Family Singers, in the phrasing of Baroness von Trapp,
"considered their performance here not as a concert but as a family gathering with their friends."
(International News Service)
The second encore was the well-known favorite, "Londenderry Air." A humorous song about a cuckoo comprised the third encore.
The disarming smile and waist-length pigtails of the two youngest sisters brought thunderous applause when they played a duet, "Allegro Vivace," from Trio Sonata in F.
The "Yodel Song" brought another encore and two of the sisters sang a yodeling lyric depicting two girls, each wishing to get in the last word. This short, lively song brought two curtains calls for the duet.
The last number on the program,
"Evening Prayer," from Hansel and
Gretel, by E. Humperdink, was the

Fighting Spitfires To Be Described By RAF Pilot
"Spitfiires over the Western Front" is the subject chosen by Wing Comdr. W. V. Crawford-Compton, a University guest who will speak in Fraser theater at 4:30 p.m. Thursday.
A New Zealandander, he has been a veteran fighter pilot on the western front and a member of the RAF since 1939. He is a leader of the famous New Zealand Spitfire squadron and has led many attacks over occupied Europe.
Wing Comdr. Crawford-Compton recently has been escorting American flying fortresses over Germany and has been decorated a number of times for his heroic actions. He holds the Distinguished Service Order, the Distinguished Flying Cross, and the American Bar. He has received the American decoration for active cooperation with the United States air force
There will be no admission price charged at the lecture.
Max Hughes, graduate student from Colby, will present the first graduate recital in piano at 8 o'clock tomorrow evening in Fraser theater.
"Sonata in B Minor, Opus 58" by Chopin will be the second offering on the program. Six surrealist afterludes by Harold Triggs will comprise the third group of selections.
Graduate Will Give Recital Tomorrow
The program, divided into four parts, will begin with the "Organ Prelude and Fugue in D Major" by Bach-Busoni, and end with "Variations Symphoniques" by Franck. The orchestral parts will be played on the second piano by Dean D. M. Swarthout.
Mr. Hughes has his bachelor of music degree in piano from Hays State Teachers College, and for several years was in charge of the piano instruction at the Colby high school. He has been studying for the master of music degree since the summer of 1942.
Canuteson Attends Cincinnati Meeting
Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the University health service, left today for Cincinnati, to attend March 15 and 16 a meeting of the American Student Health association.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Smaller Enrollment, Wartime Costs, Cause Hike in Health Fee
Saturday students finished paying their fees, including a $7.50 health fee. This assessment, designed to provide for the partial expenses of students requiring medical care, is based on much the same principle as an insurance premium.
Under the present plan, each student may obtain medical services without cost whenever he requires them. As in the case of an insurance policy, the student who doesn't take advantage of these services helps to make them available to those who need them. In order to equalize expenses, however, the ill student must pay for his own medicine and hospitalization.
After he has paid his $7.50 health fee, each student is entitled to a free physical examination when he enters the University and at any other time during the school term. Clinical services and minor surgical treatments are available without cost, also.
Each student must pay for any medicine or hospitalization he requires. He pays only the actual cost of the supplies and X-ray films he uses. Although a student is charged one dollar for each day he is in the hospital, the actual cost of keeping a patient amounts to $5.40 a day.
Formerly the health fee was several dollars less than it is now. Increased costs of medical supplies and food, the recent state law increasing the wages of civil service employees at the hospital, the necessity of maintaining a staff at all times sufficient to care for the maximum number of patients, and decreased civilian enrollment have made a larger fee necessary.
The endowment fund given by Mrs. J. B. Watkins provides for replacements, repairs, and maintenance costs but cannot be used for operating expenses.
Contrary to rumors, health fees paid by civilian students do not provide for the medical care of servicemen stationed on the campus. The Army pays $3.50 a month for each man in the ASTP, and the Navy
Rock Chalk Talk

The spiders to the flies: Last night, at the close of the first day of Alpha Delta Pi hell week, pledges were ahead by a wide margin—any way you go about figuring the score.
During active meeting the freshmen took the clothes of their elders and assisted by medics, carried them over to the Phi Bete house. After meeting the actives found out what had happened and hurried over for their possessions.
Which, of course, was exactly the way the trap had been planned. The men of medicine seized the girls as they entered the house and put them over a table in the living room. The medics also furnished paddles for the freshmen, who proceeded to go og wild on swatting.

Two tons of bituminous for Newcastle: Alpha Chi's have been living for the day of Doris Dixon's initiation when she would no longer be confined to wearing her Beta pin (from a Westminster, Mo. Beta) at night on a pair of red sleepers. With an active badge of her own, the Beta pin would come to light, her sisters figured—and they could recover from the nightly shock of seeing such consecrated jewelry on such an unorthodox costume.
The night after infiltration, everyone breathed a sigh of relief—only to be confronted the next minute by
Honor Initiate Dixon in her red sleepers. The Beta pin was in its customary spot, Alpha Chi lyre just above on the red flannel.

The esthetic side of life: And then there is the case of Dick Battchelor, Battenfeld, who went to Kansas City to visit the art institute. On his way through the city, Dick became lost a number of times. Each time, it took him well over an hour to get his bearings. And each time, he happened upon someone who knew just what to do for people who were discouraged about getting lost.
Finally arriving at the institute, Dick spent perhaps the most wonderful moments of his life drinking in the beauty's of art—and he was warned only three times to muffle his hiccups.

E for Effort: Having exhausted her supply of card tricks, jokes, and riddles, Helen Gardner, monotone, was finally reduced to singing and playing the piano to keep happy the portion of the fleet allotted to her at Theta open house. Helen gave several popular song hits all she could with the hunt and peck system, and was about ready to make a dash for the nearest exit, when she realized she was surrounded. The entire fleet had moved in and was having a wonderful time listening to her little concert.

Woodson Gives Plan To Improve Water
Alternative recommendations for the further development of the Lawrence water supply were presented by Riley Woodson, engineering graduate, to the Lawrence city council Friday evening. The recommendations were contained in a report prepared by Black and Veatch, consulting engineers.
A five-year plan, a part of which should be carried out as soon as possible, is outlined in the plans for a more reliable supply of water, said Mr. Woodson.
The first plan presented in the report was for the continued use of the river as the source of supply. This plan would establish an intake near the K.E.P power plant and place the pipeline leading from it to the water plant on ground least likely to be effected by floods.
The second plan would establish a well water supply in the east flood plain of the Kaw river near North Lawrence.
Improvements which should be installed immediately, said Mr. Woodson, would correct the taste and odor in the water, which is a problem at some seasons. Such improvements include an aeration and cooling tower.

'Shack Rats' Plan Tea For Journalists, Others
A journalism tea will be given this afternoon from 4:30 to 5:30 in the Pine Room of the Union Memorial building, and sponsored by the Union Activities committee.
Press Club members in the department of journalism have planned the tea, and faculty members, journalism students and any others interested in journalism are invited to attend, Ruth Tippin, Press Club president, said.
Multicolor Machines Add Safety
Spotlight green and cream colors have been responsible in part for the very low number of accidents in the department of shop practice, School of Engineering and Architecture, and Fowler shops. "All machines have been painted in these light contrasting colors which eliminate shadows and increase lighting efficiency almost 50 per cent," said Prof. Paul G. Hausman, director of the Engineering shops.
Since the war began, nearly 6-000 students have been trained, and only two accidents which required the student to miss any class work have occurred.
Several factors have been responsible for the good accident record. A thorough safety survey has been made by Professor Hausman, and plans have been made to guard all machines wherever possible. Another step involves the motorization of all machines, which eliminates overhead shafting and belting. By doing this, light fixtures could be placed above each machine, which increased the lighting efficiency.
The latest safety factor was the installation of the fluorescent light-which further eliminated shadows. "This new lighting installation," said Prof. Hausman, "no doubt contributed greatly to accident prevention, but even without the benefits of this lighting system, the results of light contrasting colors on machines will contribute greatly to accident prevention."
The shops and the School of Engineering have a daily attendance in all classes of 1660 students, which includes Navy machinist's mates, electrician's mates, U. S. signal corps, Navy V-12, and civilian engineering students. More than 54-764 student hours of class work have been completed since the war program began.

Iowa Replaced By Missouri For Play-offs
The University of Missouri has accepted an invitation from the National Collegiate Athletic Association to replace the University of Iowa in the organization's western play-offs at Kansas City, March 24 and 25. The Tigers will go back to the court for practice today, Coach George R. Edwards announced last night.
Professor Sam Shirkey, chairman of the university's committee on intercollegiate athletics, said the committee had approved acceptance of the bid and that other Big Six conference schools had agreed to Missouri's participation in the tournament. Under ordinary conditions the league permits only its champion to compete for the national title. Missouri finished in a tie for third in the recent Big Six campaign, winning five and losing five games.
The University of Iowa, one of the four teams originally selected for the western play-offs as an alternate for the Rocky Mountain conference, was forced to withdraw when the Hawkeyes' two leading scorers were expected to be drafted by the armed services. Missouri was extended the invitation late yesterday.
The other teams in the Western play-offs are Iowa State, co-champion of the Big Six; Arkansas, representing the southwest, and Pepperdine college of Los Angeles, representing the west coast. The winner of the Kansas City affair will go to New York to meet the winner of the eastern play-offs for the national championships.
Graduate Speaks To Hawaiian Group
Jane Howe, graduate in 1938, spoke at the 18th annual meeting of the Hawaiian Academy of Science recently on "Some Observations on Atopic Conditions," according to a Honolulu newspaper article.
Miss Howe is now working as a technician in Honolulu. The article discloses that she was working in Queen's hospital, Honolulu, on Dec. 7, 1941, and was "alone in the lab with a Japanese assistant."

Sportorials By Charles Moffett
Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen says that after the war many revolutionary changes will take place in basketball. One of these will be enlarging the playing court, both in length and width. He also said he wouldn't be surprised to see a great field house on the campus with a seating capacity of 16,000 or more to take care of the crowds at the basketball games. Fans want to sit on the sidelines, not on the endlines to watch a game, and only a large field house would make this possible. Indeed, the University of Kansas does need a better place to play basketball. Hoch auditorium doesn't provide a suitable place to play as it is used for many other activities, forcing the team to practice in Robinson gymnasium. Fans have to sit on one side of the court, limiting good seating capacity. A large new field house would go fine with the excellent football stadium we have. Together they would make a fine athletic layout comparable to any in the country.
One of the biggest sports questions making the rounds today is whether the big leagues will be able to finish the coming baseball season. Every day the player situation changes because of changes in the draft classifications. Many of the great names of baseball will be missing this summer, and before the penant race is completed, no doubt several more will be gone. However, we predict that somehow the Great American Game will carry on, even with travel regulations, player shortages, and all the other wartime obstacles to the sport.

Missouri's track hopes received a severe jolt last week when four men were lost to the armed forces. One of these was Arnold, who tied for first in the pole vault in the recent Big Six indoor meet in Kansas City. . . . Bob Kurland, a 7-footer from the Oklahoma Aggies, may hit a 400-point total for the season. He has 375 points already with two more regular season games yet to play and at least one post-season contest. . . . Sixteen regularly-scheduled doubleheader basketball games in Madison Square Garden drew a total of 250,254 fans, an average of 15,658 per game. Post season games are expected to boost the total by at least 100,000.

KFKU Enters National Contest Of Radio Education
Transcriptions of five KFKU programs are to be sent to the Fifteenth Institute for Education by Radio of Ohio State university which is sponsoring a national contest, the Eighth American Exhibition of Educational Radio Programs, Miss Mildred Seaman, program director of the KFKU series, has announced.
Miss Seaman has selected two of the French lesson broadcasts by Miss Mattie Crumrine, instructor of romance languages, and two programs of the Living Books series which includes "Alice in Wonderland" discussed by Prof. Robert Calderwood of the speech department, Natalie Calderwood of the English department, and Prof. Karl Mattern of the drawing and painting department. The other transcription selected of the series is the discussion of "Utopia" by Prof. W. E. Sandelius of the political science department, Prof. John Ashton of the English department, and Prof. Fletcher McCord of the Psychology department.
From another type of program Miss Seaman selected one of the round table broadcasts which is a discussion of "Can We Avoid Ruminous Inflation" by Prof. F. T. Stockton, Dean of the School of Business, R. S. Howey and Leslie Waters, professors of economics.
This is the first time that the University has sent educational programs to this national contest. Over thirty citations will be given, including first awards and honorable mentions.

Baroness von Trapp then told of the dire need to keep families together, especially in wartime, for, she said, "a country is as strong as its families." She related that family life in Austria became impossible and so they came to the United States four years ago with less than $50 between them. She has two boys in the army, stationed in Colorado, and her youngest child is their farm home in Vermont.
The evening's program ended with a statement by the Baroness that wars are not only fought with weapons such as guns and tanks, but with deep and earnest prayers, and requested that the audience join in the singing of "America" as a heartfelt prayer.

ASC Appoints John Anderson Chief Justice
John Anderson, second year law student, was appointed chief justice of the student court at the All-Student Council meeting held in the Pine room of the Union building last night.
Anderson was approved for this position by the law faculty, who then submitted his name to the All-Student council for voting. The Council will consider candidates for the office of associate justice and elect someone to fill Anderson's former position at their meeting next week.
Formerly associate justice of the court, Anderson will fill the vacancy left by the graduation of Louis Weidman who has served as chief justice since last fall.
John Steinbeck "Of Mice and Men" will be brought to the screen of Fraser Theater at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow through the Student Forums Board, Joy Miller, chairman, announced today. No admission will be charged, she said.
Movie to Be Shown Thursday in Fraser
An amendment to the book exchange bill, which changed the name back to WEC book exchange, was also passed by the Council at the meeting last night.
"Of Mice and Men" is the first of a series of motion pictures which will be brought to the University on alternate Thursday nights by the Forums Board, Miss Miller announced. Obtained from a New York agency, the movies will all be shown in Fraser Theater. Admission to all pictures will be free.
Articles of incorporation have been filed with the Secretary of State for a university to be established in Indianapolis after the war. The university will not be identified with any "body, church, or other religious organization."
Starring in "Of Mice and Men" are Broderick Crawford, Wallace Ford, and Betty Field. A short feature will also be shown Thursday evening. The show will last two hours.
The Victory Speakers will give an informal tea at 4:30 this afternoon in the English room of the Union building, E. C. Buehler, sponsor of the organization, has announced. Roberta Sue McCluggage, College junior, is in charge of the program.
Several students will give informal talks on the activities and purpose of the Victory Speakers. Pending engagements have been made for the speakers to present programs in Topeka, Kansas City, Mo., and nearby towns, said Professor Buehler.

Grad Receives Medal For Valor a 2nd Time
A second decoration, the Air Medal, has been awarded to Lt. John Perry Edwards, of Paola, a graduate in '39, for heroism in the navy air corps.
The medal was awarded to Lieutenant Edwards after he rescued another flyer in the Pacific. According to the citation which accompanied it, the Kansan was recognized for "meritorious achievement while participating in an aerial flight."
Lieutenant Edwards has also received the Navy Cross for extraordinary heroism at Pearl Harbor. He is now flying a Martin Naval Transport plane based at Pearl Harbor.
Medics Prepare To Honor Friend
Plans for the Francisco Memorial Union building which has been suggested as a tribute to the well-known orthopedic surgeon whose recent death saddened University students, will be discussed by army and navy medical students and premedical students in Lawrence at a meeting in room 101 of Snow hall at 4:30 Thursday afternoon.
Bernard Hall of Lawrence, president of the senior class at the University hospital in Kansas Ctity, will be in Lawrence to lead the discussion.
Already students of the University of Kansas School of Medicine have contributed $400 from their pocket money for the Student Union building memorizing their good friend and teacher, Dr. Clarence B. Francisco.
A faculty committee has joined in the movement, a minimum goal of $200,000 has been set, and the state architect has been asked to submit drawings for the campus addition.
Serving on the student committee with Hall are Bruce Drowns, president of the junior class; Miss Neva Kennedy of Hutchinson, president of the Nurses Student council, and five seniors, Miss Margaret Nelson, Andy Mitchell, H. L. Hekuius, Alden Flanders, and Bill Srridge.
The campaign to raise funds for the memorial will be extended to alumni of the medical school throughout the country, to the doctors of Greater Kansas City, to former patients' of Dr. Francisco and to the numerous Kansas communities where he gave clinical service in behalf of crippled children," according to Dr. Galen M. Tice, head of the faculty committee.
The book exchange according to Florence Harris, senior, is still buying most all kinds of books from students. There is a great need for psychology, chemistry, and other books going out of print due to the war.
The building will provide halls for recreational gatherings of medical students and nurses, an auditorium, new quarters for the school's library and possibly some dormitory space for students.
Books May Be Sold To Book Exchange
The book exchange will be open part of every day from now on until the end of the semester. Most of the books will be bought from students any time, during the semester.
Spring Has A Set Back
Although officially spring is just around the corner, students who ventured out to class at 8:30 this morning without raincoats, were caught unaware an hour later by a chilling wind and rain.
Temperatures dropped to between 15 and 20 degrees last night, after a muggy but spring-like weather had invaded Kansas during the day.
Also out of the window went prospective thoughts of fries and picnics, unless an unexpected warm spell should arrive before the weekend begins.
Perhaps the best that can be said is that one's thoughts are not inclined to wander to Shangri-la during class periods or while studying . . . the wanton effects of warm weather.
Idle thoughts of cotton skirts and spring clothes were temporarily shelved by women students who dived out of woolen sleepers this morning into the nearest and warmest clothes available.
March winds and April showers have combined to give students a case of "falling hair" and "Monday blues."
But spring is still just around the corner.
Air Offensive Opens New Drive on Rome Via Cassino Pass
(International News Service)
The long awaited offensive designed to line up two separate Allied armies in Italy for a concerted drive on Rome was unleashed today when the full weight of American and British air power was hurled against Cassino, bottleneck on the road to the eternal city.
In the space of three and a half hours from 8:30 a.m. until noon 300 waves of bombers rained 1,400 tons of high explosives and incendiary missiles upon a town that embraces little more than one square mile. It was the most terrific air assault in aerial warfare.
Cassino, nestled at the Naria river valley long had been the chief obstacle in the way to Allied progress toward the Italian city. Information from Gen. Henry Maitland-Wilson did not tell of the progress made by ground troops who were able to move into the town after battling from house to house with bayonets and grenades since Cassino was attacked. But it was a fair assumption that with Cassino leveled and the monostery on the hill reduced as an effective enemy bastion the way is now open for the long desired junction of Allied troops in the Anzio-Netuno beachhead.
Meanwhile Allied medium bombers swept across the channel this afternoon for what coastal observers believed to be a fresh attack on northern France. There were night attacks of Dusseldorf and other objectives in the Reich.
Russian forces pressed on toward Nikolayev on the Black Sea amid indications of German evacuations from Crimea, and new landings were made by American troops in the Talasca area on the northern shore of New Britain in the Pacific.
CVC Will Bring Red Cross Drive To Campus Tomorrow in Final Phase of Campaign to Reach $1,000
Some ASTP Classes Will Terminate Friday
Eight junior men have been elected to Sachem it has been announced by Thornton McClanahan, Chief Sachem.
Upon recommendation of Lt. Col. Watson L. McMorris, commandant of the local ASTP unit, classes for basic engineers, terms two and three will terminate at 5:20 Friday evening.
Those elected are Richard Beach, Robert Corder, William Mowery, Sidney Walker, all V-12 College students. Frank Gage, Harold McSpadden, Clinton Sloan, and George Verhage are the V-12 Engineering students who were chosen.
The election was made by present members and a faculty committee of six including Prof. Henry Werner, Dean Gilbert Ulmer, Prof. F. E. Melvin, Dean J. O. Jones, and Prof. F. C. Allen.
Grades and credits for classes will be based upon their work during the six weeks period as may be determined by the university faculty. Final examinations will be given in some courses on Thursday and Friday.
Sachem Elects Eight Juniors
This was actually the fall election but it was necessary to have it earlier because of war conditions according to McClanahan. There will be a regular spring election however, to supplement this list he added.
"The society started in 1910 to maintain KU traditions at a time when students did not remain on the campus for four years," MeClanahan said, "and election is based on scholarship (1.5 average) and campus leadership."
Joseph B. Eastman Dies;
Veteran Federal Official
Washington, (INS)-Defense transportation director Joseph B. Eastman, a veteran of 25 years government service died at Emergency Hospital in Washington today of a heart attack. He was 61 years old. One of the most popular and highly regarded federal officials he was taken to the hospital on Feb. 19 for rest and treatment of a heart ailment. His death was a shock to official Washington, however.
State Legislative Council Meets
$ \varepsilon $ is the 'best metallic con-
duit to best and electricity.
Topeka, (INS)-The Kansas legislative council today considered recommendations to be made to the next regular legislative session. Among the proposals considered for legislative action is the revamping of the school laws and the establishment of a board of education to control the state's entire educational system.
With $1.000 as their goal, the Coed Volunteer Corps will go into the final phase of its Red Cross drive tomorrow with members collecting from civilian students on the campus who have not contributed as yet to the fund. The goal can be reached if an average of $1 is collected from each student.
The drive, under the direction of Betty Jo O'Neal, CVC major is being carried to the campus in an effort to reach the approximately one hundred students who can not be contacted through the organized houses. CVC members will wear Red Cross arm bands and carry boxes with a red cross on them.
The goal for the entire University including the faculty, men in the armed services, employees, and civilian students is $4,000. The collection up to date is over $3,000.
Organized houses were visited Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this week. The Jay Janes, women's pep organization, collected from the V-12's during their lunch hour today.
The Red Cross is in need of supplies for prisoners of war, medical supplies, and entertainment, as it is the only licensed organization to help the men overseas. Several former KU students are working with the Red Cross on the various fronts.
WAVE to Interview Senior Women Tomorrow, 2 to 5
Lt. Rosalie Martin, head of the WAVE recruiting office in Kansas City, Mo., will be on the campus to talk to seniors about joining the WAVE's after graduation, Miss Florence Black, military co-coordinator for women, has announced. Lieutenant Martin will interview women interested from 2 to 5 tomorrow afternoon in the office of the adviser of women.
Lieutenant Martin talked yesterday about meeting and discussing with women interested in the WAVE's the opportunities offered. She said that there was a great field for trained and experienced women in this service. Medical technology, journalism, business administration, physics, chemistry, and mathematics are some of the openings for girls.
Lieutenant Martin berself writes script for a radio program, an opportunity which she feels would not have come to her except through the WAVE's.
The membership of the WAVE's must reach 92,000 by the end of December of this year. Training for enlisted personnel is received at Hunter College, New York, and officer's training is taken at Smith College, New York.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Closing Hour Rules May Be Clarified by Story of WEC Action
To those new students who may find the women's closing hours a bit confusing, a short summary of the Women's Executive Council's action on the subject may prove helpful. The closing hour rules were made last summer by a special committee appointed by the WEC in cooperation with the adviser of women; the rules were only slightly revised for the fall term.
Retaining the former closing hours of 10:30 on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday night, the committee changed Wednesday and Sunday hours to 11 p.m., Friday to 12 p.m., and Saturday to 12:45 a.m. On nights preceding finals, University women may stay out until 11 p.m. Closing hours on nights preceding holidays and vacations and during vacations, registration and enrollment, and commencement are 12 p.m.
Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday night hours were extended to conform with those observed by servicemen stationed at the University. Since many men on the campus are restricted on Friday night and since allowing women out alone after midnight seemed inadvisable, the WEC set up the Friday closing hours to 12 p.m.
In connection with rules regulating women's study hours, the WEC prohibits the entertaining of men in women's rooming houses after 8 p.m. except during the weekend and on holidays.
The first two violations of WEC House Rules, which include those pertaining to closing hours, may be dealt with by the group of which the-offender is a member or the landlady in an unorganized house. Succeeding or flagrant violations will be referred to the House Rules Committee.
In establishing these regulations, the WEC provided for the revision of the rules whenever necessary.

Hospital to Offer Nurses' Aide Class
A new course in Nurses' Aide will begin at 3:30 p.m. Monday at Watkins Memorial hospital. The class will meet for two hour sessions every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for six weeks.
Mrs. John Holmes, 924 Massachusetts, will be in charge of the class and Miss Maude Landis, 1521 Stratford Road, will be the assistant.
A committee to interview applicants for the course will meet from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. at Watkins Memorial hospital on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Another committee will be in the Red Cross rooms in the basement of the Community building from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Thursday and Friday and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday.
"We are very eager to have women enroll who have considerable time to devote to Red Cross work," stated Mrs. R. H. Beamer, chairman of the Nurses' Aide committee for the Douglas county chapter of the Red Cross. "We can accept only a limited enrollment and want to train women who are vitally interested in the work."

Rock Chalk Talk

Let's don't get technical: Marvel Enno was supposed to find a small black kitten on the scavenger hunt Alpha Omicron Pi freshmen engaged in toward the end of their hell week. She came back to the house several hours after the go signal towing an oversized, jet tomeat. A. O. Pi actives questioned the fact that she had a kitten.
"He has had thyroid trouble," explained Marvel.

More hell: Gamma Phi freshmen appeared single file on the campus yesterday dragging eight-foot strings. And as they walked along, each carried on a scintillating conversation with her particular rope. She was required to personify it as her boyfriend, roommate, or pet. The trick was one of the less difficult exercises assigned during Gamma Phi hell week. For something really berserk — ask a G. P. pledge when and why she must blow a whistle.
Reduced attendance at concerts on the part of Battenfeld boys — according to the boys may be explained by the fact that they have plenty of concerts of their own now right in the hall.

Carman Tells Rotary Of Bombing Europe From African Base
First Lt. Frederick Carman, a former student and son of Prof. J. Neale Carman of the department of Romance languages, told Rotarians Monday how it feels to bomb Sicily, France, Italy, and other points in the news with a squadron that never dies.
Lieutenant Carman has been navigator in 52 combat missions in the Mediterranean sector. His missions, he said, began in Africa and spread to numerous points in the European theater of war.
In their North African campaign the Germans maintained an experimental bombing station in the western end of Sicily to send up fighter planes to try out new ideas of attack and ammunition, he said. This method of warfare kept Americans constantly guessing until German losses became so heavy that they had to cease experimenting.
"After a flyer has gone through 40 or more missions, he is likely to become somewhat 'unstrung' and less dependable in his work," said Lieutenant Carman.
It has come about since Joe Gray, the fiddling engineer, moved in. Joe is studying aeronautics, but he spends most of his time sawing out classical music on a rebellious violin. He isn't taking lessons — the boys feel perhaps it would be better if he did.
--it is estimated that every inductee requires a minimum of one and a half fillings.
We hope he'll do better in the war: Before going into the air corps, Bob Pool, last-semester Battenfeld resident, decided to visit Ron Nordeen, Battenfeld also, in Mound City. The first night the two were on the loose. Bob was not exactly hot for his date. So he announced that on the following night—he would not drag blind again—but get himself a date. Thanks to Ron anyway for being willing to help. Pool then called the girl with whom Nordeen had just been out. When Bob came in from the engagement next night Mrs. Nordeen and her rapidly-turning-green son noticed deep scratches on his hands. Bob explained he got them in a wrestling match with his uncle some time ago. But Ron continues to maintain the wounds were fresh, and gives his girl credit for actively resisting a bad thing.
Six Students To Give Recitals Tomorrow

Students Rated in Public Opinion
In a poll conducted by the Wisconsin Institute of Public Opinion, men and women students rated about equally in their acquaintance with names important on the campus and national scene.
A memorial association was established in Washington this week to commemorate Raymond Clapper, distinguished journalist and native of Kansas, who was killed recently in the South Pacific. Through the Raymond Clapper Memorial association an annual award will be given to a Washington newspaper writer for reporting.
The award will be a gold medal, and if the funds provide, a cash award. A standing committee will designate every year a panel of five recognized newspapermen to select the winner. The name of each winner will be inscribed on a memorial plaque to be hung in the National Press club.
Clapper Memorial Association Honors K.U. Alumnus
"This award commemorates the journalistic achievement of Raymond Clapper and all he did to justify a free press," read the by-laws of the Memorial association. "It's purpose is to inspire Washington newspapermen to emulate the high ideals that he exemplified in his profession—his honesty, his integrity, his courage, his earnest search for facts, his fair interpretation of his findings, his continual and fearless battle for access by reporters to the sources of information, his constant and thorough research to balance and temper his judgment of passing events.
The award is planned as an inspiration for the type of honest and courageous reporting which won the celebrated University of Kansas alumnus respect and fame in the newspaper world. Funds to provide for the annual award will be obtained through contributions from newspapers and newspaper men as well as others, including his readers who would like to participate.
"The tests applied in making this award shall be those by which Raymond Clapper, always tested himself. It is to be bestowed annually upon the Washington newspaper writer whose work in the previous year most closely approximated, in the opinion of the judges, the ideas of fair and painstaking reporting and good craftsmanship that were characteristic of Raymond Clapper."
Alexander F. Jones, managing editor of the Washington Post is chairman of the finance committee which will be in charge of raising funds. Contributions should be addressed to him in care of the National Press club, Washington, D.C. Roy Roberts, managing editor of the Kansas City Star, is a member of the finance committee.

V-12's, All-Stars Meet Tomorrow
Starting lineups for the V-12 vs. All Star game which will close the Lawrence Community Basketball League have been selected, Chief Yeoman Starkey, manager of the league and coach of the All-Star team, announced today.
Of the thirteen men picked by Chief Starkey as the All-Stars of the league, other than the V-12s, the Irish Rascals, with five men, two on the starting line-up, have contributed heaviest to the roster. The other men are divided more evenly between the five remaining teams.
The game, to be played in the Lawrence Community building court at 8 p.m. Thursday, will find the undefeated V-12 squad coached by Ens. H. L. Ware, opposed by the cream of other six teams of the league.
The V-12 starting line-up, averaging over 6'1" will, with the exception of John Schimen, a Milwaukee boy new to the V-12 unit here, be composed of regular V-12 starters during the season. Schimenz, with his steady floor play and passing ability, has added greatly to the already strong offensive V-12 power.
Dr. F. C. Allen, University physical education director, and A. E. Woestemeyer, of the Lawrence Journal World, will officiate the game. Chief Starkey announced that unlike other league games, an admission would be charged for the all star game, forty cents for civilians and 25 cents for service men—the proceeds to go for a dinner for all the players of the league. Plans are also being made for a Red Cross collection during the half.
The starting line-ups:
All-Stars V-12
Koskela—MM Scott
Allen (Mitt)-Irish Rascals Pyle
Hoke—S.O.W. Ads Lutz
Hagerdorn—Ship's Co. Schimenz
Hare-Irish Rascals Heim
Other All Star players are: Smith, Blanks; Rogers, Irish Rascals; Flickinger, Machinist's Mates; Buck, Irish Rascals; Pittman, S.O.W. Tech; Pahl, Ship's Company; and Owen, Irish Rascals.
Openings Still Exist In Band, Orchestra
Seven vacancies still exist in the band and orchestra, Prof. Russell L. Wiley, director of the University band and orchestra, said today, after a week of trouts.
One French horn player and three tuba players are needed in the band, Professor Wiley said, while the orchestra needs one tuba, one French horn, and one string bass player.
"I will be very happy if I can get those," commented Professor Wiley. "However, this does not close the door to other musicians. I will give tryouts to any musician who so desires."
The concerts for both the band and orchestra will be presented either the last week of May or the first week of June, Professor Wiley added.
New Students Are Taking Physical Examinations
Physical examinations are being given at Watkins Memorial hospital to all new students entering the University. Most of the examinations were given Monday afternoon and Tuesday afternoon last week. The remaining will be given in the students' free periods.
Appointments for examinations were made at the registrar's office when the new students enrolled.

Sportorials By Charles Moffett
The war has brought many strange changes on the sports front. One of the most recent examples is in the coming NCAA tournament at Kansas City, March 24-25. The teams entered in the tourney are Pepperdine College of Los Angeles, Arkansas, Iowa State and Missouri.
in normal times Pepperdine College would be entered in the Intercollegiate tournament, also held in Kansas City, for smaller schools and would no doubt make a fine showing. But now Pepperdine is representing the Pacific Coast in the spot usually occupied by Southern California, Stanford, California, Washington, or one of the other West Coast schools. The winner of the southern division of the Pacific Coast Conference would play the northern division winner in a play-off game to decide who would make the trip to K.C. From the season's record Pepperdine apparently has a fine team and could by winning the western division play-off, put the school "on the map."
Arkansas is representing the Southwest at Kansas City. In early season the Razorbacks were undefeated and made a successful trip back East. However, Pittsburgh State Teachers beat them late in the season and Kansas and Washburn hold victories over Pittsburg. So the strength of Arkansas is doubtful, although the addition of a six-foot ten-inch giant to the squad may be very helpful.
From the fifth district, consisting of the Missouri Valley conference and the Big Six, comes the strangest change. Two teams, both from the Big Six, are the other two contenders for the play-off title. Ordinarily the champion of the Missouri Valley and the Big Six would meet in a game to decide which one would represent the fifth district at Kansas City. The Oklahoma Aggies were invited to the Invitational tournament at New York City, so that left the bid open to the Iowa State team. The Cyclones first declined the offer because of Navy

Iowa University was chosen to take the place of Utah, the Rocky Mountain conference representative. Iowa would have made an excellent substitute, as it took second place in the Big Ten and had a fine season's record. But army calls forced them to withdraw from the tournament. This left the door open for Missouri and the Tigers accepted. They began preparing their all-civilian team for the play-off.
Max Hughes, a candidate in June for the Master of Music degree in piano, will present his graduate recital in Fraser theater tonight at 8 p.m.
So, if nothing more happens before tourney time, Pepperdine, Arkansas, Iowa State, and Missouri will compete for the honor to meet the Eastern division champ. The Kansas City affair definitely will not have the strongest teams this year because of the war, but NCAA officials have been persistent in obtaining teams, and a great amount of credit is due them for overcoming numerous obstacles and going ahead and putting on the tournament in spite of everything.

Red Cross Drive Attains $242.65 Of $1000 Goal
A total of $242.65 has been reported so far in the Co-ed Volunteer Corps drive for the Red Cross. This is a report from seven of the organized houses who turned in their money this morning. The goal for civilian students is $1,000, making an average of $1 for each student.
Today members of the CVC, under the direction of Betty Jo O'Neal, CVC major, have been on the campus wearing Red Cross arm bands to collect money from any of the students who are not living in organized houses and have not yet had the opportunity to give. The women have been carrying boxes with a red cross on them and were not stationed at any one place but circulated over the campus. There were to have been about thirty of these girls.
The collection from all the University including the faculty, service men, employees, and civilian students is now over $3,000 toward the goal set at $4,000. The first of this week, money was collected from the Institized houses, and the Jay Janes collected from the V-12's during their lunch hour yesterday.
Heaviest Bombings Of War Occur Today In Germany-France
(International News Service)
The allied air bombardment of Adolph Hitler's Europe continued without letup today. The immediate target of the latest daily air attack on Southern Germany was not disclosed.
The regular monthly College faculty meeting will be Tuesday, March 28, the College office has announced The meeting previously was set for Tuesday, March 21.
Big four-motored U. S. bombers were out in overwhelming strength and may have chosen the same general areas as selected by British planes last night. At that time more than 1,000 heavy R.A.F. attackers hit Stuttgart, Munich, and other objectives in Germany and occupied France during the night, dropping a total of 3,360 tons of bombs in what the London press described as the greatest bombing operation in history.
Forty British planes were lost due mostly to anti-aircraft fire as there was no very great evidence of German fighter opposition. In about the same time Wellington bombers of the Mediterranean air forces carried out the first attack in weeks against the Bulgarian capital of Sofia, smashing up railway yards and installations, painstakingly repaired by the Nazis.

Movie Will Be At 7:30 Tonight
"Of Mice and Men," the first in the Forums Board's series of movies to be shown on the campus, will begin at 7:30 tonight in Fraser theater, Joy Miller, chairman of the Forums Board, has announced. Admission will be free.
Burgess Meredith, Betty Field, and Lon Chaney, Jr. are the stars appearing in Lewis Milestone's production of John Steinbeck's successful play and novel.
"Of Mice and Men" was produced in Hollywood for almost nothing," said Prof. Allen Crafton of the dramatics department, this morning. "To begin with it was more or less of an experiment, filmed on a small camera similar to that used for motion pictures in the University extension division. The picture turned out, however, to be one of the outstanding movies of the year and won a number of awards."
A 10 minute short entitled "Hunting Season" will be shown with "Of Mice and Men."
The entire program will not last after 9:30, said Miss Miller.
"If Mice and Men" is the first of a series of movies which will be brought to Fraser theater through the Forums Board. The following schedule of pictures has been outlined for the next two and a half months;
March 30, "Katia," an American film; April 13, "Peter the Great," a Russian film; May 11, "Crime and Punishment," a French film; and June 2, "Alexander Nezsky," a Russian film.
A farewell banquet for division 18 of the machinist's mates from the Naval Training Station who will graduate tomorrow afternoon will be held in the Community building at 6 o'clock this evening. Members of division 18, the officers, and ship's company will be present.
"Crime and Punishment," is spoken in French with English translation given at the bottom of the screen," said Miss Miller.
MM's to Be Honored At Banquet Tonight
Those present at the banquet will be invited to attend the basketball game immediately following between the V-12 basketball team, victors of the Lawrence community league, and an All-Star team chosen from the other teams of the league. The machinist's mates have been given liberty until 2400 (12:00).
Farewell addresses will be given by Lt. A. H. Buhl, commanding officer, and Lt. (j.g.) Orville Hood, commander of the division.
Luccero's Trio, composed of R. R. Hill, E. H. Hanson, and J. I. Lucero of the division, will present a program of musical numbers.
"The banquet will be an informal send-off for the men," stated Lt. C. (continued to page four)
Insanity Studied In Pictures
Are you Napoleon? Or, more important, do you think you are?
Then there is a chance that you may be one of the schizophreniadicts whose tendencies and general characteristics are currently on display at Spooner-Thayer museum. One does not discover why and what makes today's Napoleons and Caesars through bewildering case histories, but through pictures drawn by the patients themselves, revealing hidden conflicts and desires which cannot be realized in actual life.
Schizophrenia is a tendency to withdraw from the world of reality. Pictures drawn by such people during treatment resemble (to put it wildly) a cross-section of contemporary surrealistic paintings which have attracted wide and diversified comment. The familiar one-eyed portraits are embellished with cork-screws, wire coils, umbrellas with other what-have-you objects floating off at frequent intervals. A 26-year-old patient, explaining that "my eye popped out and looked at me," has pictured a giant eye with a small figure looking into it. Another of this series shows diverse objects—a chugging train, swords, nails—pounded into a heart, supposedly depicting inward conflict and the unfriendlyness of the outer world.
Animals Are Humanized
The figure is there but the face is missing in a portrait of a 25-year-old woman. One subsequently finds it humanizing the dog by her side and the fur-piece about her neck. Here also "my eye popped out and looked at me"—the eye of the fur-piece bulges conspicuously outward from the rest of the face.
Shock treatments are important in the cure of a patient who flees from reality. In a series of pictures drawn by a young child, the first picture appears to be nothing more than a blob of black on a larger blob of

Fees Must Be Paid Today Warns Klooz
All unpaid enrollment fees must be paid by 5 o'clock this evening, stated Karl Klooz, bursar. If this deadline is not met, it will be necessary to cancel the enrollment of the student immediately unless a valid excuse is presented at the business office, he warned.
The regulation penalty for fees not paid on time was assessed beginning Tuesday morning but even this extra period expires tonight, and the names of those students who still owe their fees will be checked immediately.
Wheeler Writes Articles For 'Mechanix Illustrated'
"Mechanix Illustrated" is running a series of articles dealing with the work of Dr. R. H. Wheeler, professor of psychology, in foretelling the future through a study of cycles and the earth's rhythms.
Two articles have already been printed, and two more will follow. They are written by Donald G. Cooley.
Lt. E. R. Todd Visits Parents in Lawrence
Second Lt. Eldon R. Todd, former engineering student at the University, is visiting his parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Todd in Lawrence, after receiving pilot's wings and being commissioned second lieutenant at Marfa army air field, Marfa, Texas. He was commissioned March 12.
Lieutenant Todd is a member of
Theatre. He is participating in festivities.
After leaving Lawrence, he will report to Roswell, N.M.
54 Men Given Army, Navy Tests
Fifty-four college and high school students reported at 9 o'clock Wednesday morning in Fraser theater to take the Army-Navy qualifying tests. If the candidates are accepted, they will be placed either in the A-12 or V-12 training programs.
Twelve of the applicants are students in Lawrence Memorial High School. The remaining group is enrolled in the University. Most of the students are 17 and 18 years old.
"There were not as many applicants as we had expected," announced Dr. A. H. Turney, who is in charge of giving the examinations. "A majority of the students, 48 in all, specified a preference for the V-12 program. This situation is undoubtedly due to the recent announcement made by the army concerning the curtailment of the AS-TP."
Board of Regents Will Not Supervise Elementary Schools
The possibility that the Board of Regents, which governs five state institutions of higher education including the University of Kansas, would also have supervisory authority over elementary schools was removed yesterday by the legislative council in session at Topeka.
Approving reorganization of the State department of education, the legislative council recommended: (1) Raising qualifications of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction. (2) Establishing a board of laymen advisors. (3) Abandoning the earlier suggestion to give the State Board of Regents supervision over elementary schools as well as colleges.
Under the proposal adopted yesterday, which must later gain the approval of the legislature to become a law, the Governor will appoint a bi-partisan board of education consisting of seven members. One will be chosen from each Congressional district and one at large. Not more than three can come from first or second class cities. Not more than four can belong to the same political party. School teachers, principals, or superintendents are not considered laymen, the committee ruled.
The reorganization came about after a series of battles last year between the superintendent and the state board.
Under the proposal, the State Superintendent is to be professionally trained and experienced as a school man, but will remain an elective officer.
Last MM Group To Be Graduated Tomorrow
The last group of machinist's mates to be graduated from the University Naval Training Station will receive their certificates of completion at 3:30 tomorrow afternoon. The graduation exercises will take place in the auditorium in Frank Strong hall, Chancellor Deane W. Malott will deliver the graduation address to the 18th division which has a personnel of 125 men.
Since the program started on July 13, 1942, 2724 men have completed the training to qualify for machinist's mates rating. Of this total, 883 have been given the rating of petty officers upon graduation or by means of the change in regulations making firemen first class, petty officers third class. The program will now be devoted entirely to training electrician's mates.
The honor man of the division is Seaman Lee Denton Adams 30, of Huntington Park, Calif. Before his enlistment in the navy, Seaman Adams was employed in the merchant marine in construction work at Pearl Harbor until June 15, 1942. He attended a merchant marine training school for 15 months, graduating with a rating of marine engineer. He will be promoted to fireman first class to machinist's mate third class.
Lt. (j.g.) Orville Hood, education and school officer, is commander of the division. The trainee commander is Richard S. Bowers of Toledo, Ohio.
Jay Janes Will Honor Irish at Jamboree
The Jay James precedent of having only women at their annual Jamboree will be broken in a big way tomorrow afternoon from 4:30 to 5:30 in the Union lounge, according to student officers in the V-12, and members of the army groups stationed on the campus.
When asked to invite the navy men in their PT's to the Jamboree student officers told Alice Goff, social chairman, she could expect "the entire fleet." Army men were similarly enthusiastic.
St. Patrick and the Irish will not be forgotten at the dance, Miss Goff has promised boosters of the Emerald Isle. Refreshments and decorations will be carried out in Irish colors.
Guests at the Jamboree will dance to recordings. Women students who attend will be charged a small admission fee.
Governor Believes Soldiers May Vote
Topeka, (INS)—Gov. Andrew Schoeppel, after conferring with State Attorney A. V. Mitchell, today indicated that Kansas vote laws will allow supplemental federal ballot for servicemen. The governor, who declined to be quoted directly until his telegram to President Roosevelt on the Kansas vote law is sent today or tomorrow, said he believes most Kansans will be able to vote under the present state statute and the supplemental federal ballot.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Nurses' Aides Give Needed Service To Red Cross
For a good many years United States citizens have been contributing to the Red Cross, for it stands high on the list of worthy causes. An organization as immense as the Red Cross couldn't possibly exist without the financial aid which it receives through drives such as the one being made on the Hill now, but money, in itself, is not the backbone of the organization.
Without the personnel—the doctors, the nurses, and the thousands who give their time and energy in part-time work — the money would be useless. Those persons who give of themselves and their time, which might be spent in some more pleasant pastime, are the most important contributors to the Red Cross.
The 15 University women, who receive their caps tonight as a sign of the completion of their first 80 hours of Nurses' Aide training, are a part of this more important group. After finishing 35 hours of class work on practical nursing, the women put in at least 45 hours of morning and evening service at the campus and the city hospitals. If they weren't able to squeeze their hospital work in with their regular class schedules, they would sometimes begin work at 5 o'clock in the morning or work from 7 to 10 o'clock at night.
As the name implies, the Nurses' Aides take over the simpler tasks of nursing, and, thereby, allow the regular nurses to concentrate on the technical work. In taking the Red Cross course, the women sign up for four years service with a minimum of 150 hours of work a year. Those who have the time usually put in several times the minimum number of hours.
Since the average college woman usually doesn't have too much extra time on her hands, those women who spend their free hours as Nurses' Aldes are to be congratulated on their good work and service to the Red Cross.
Max Hughes' Recital Termed Successful
Before an enthusiastic audience, Max Hughes, graduate student from Colby, last night presented his graduate piano recital in Fraser theater.
Seven curtain calls with loud applause displayed the full enjoyment the audience felt for his perfect coordination, and the rich and full tone he stamped on each number. "Six Surrealist Afterludes" (Harold Triggs) received the greatest response from the audience. Hughes delivered an impressionistic and colorful style to each of the afterludes.
"Organ Prelude and Fugue in D Major" (Bach-Busoni) opened the program, with Hughes efficiently displaying his clear technique. "Sonata in B Minor, Opus 58" (Chopin), the second offering, was typical Chopin-dreamy melodic, and forceful.
Hughes gave an emotional and forceful interpretation of "Variations Symphoniques" (Franck), the final number on the program. D. M. Swarthout, Dean of the School of Fine_Arts, played the orchestra part on a second piano. Enthusiastic applauding then called Hughes back on the stage for three acknowledgements.

They unroll their own: With the increasing scarcity of kleenex on the market, coeds have been forced to resort to ersatz.

Only God can make a tree: Thinking that spring was here, one art teacher sent her class out to sketch trees near Potter Lake Tuesday. After a short interval, the rains came. For awhile, the students swathed in raincoats and scarves, stuck with it. At last, an unanimous decision was made to retreat from the grove to the Union fountain, where hat trees provided a more interesting subject.

Bob Vaughn Receives Naval Commendation
Vaughn was graduated from La Crosse high school in 1939, and attended K.U. and Fort Hays Teachers College until he joined the navy one week after Pearl Harbor was attacked.
The citation was awarded for the run to Archangel and back to England in 1942, under constant attack from Axis planes and submarines. The crew members were on the guns for 36 hours at a stretch and accounted for at least eight enemy planes.

KU Dandelion Foe Is Now 'Garbage Man' At Parris Island
The enthusiast who started "Dandelion Day" at the University has lost his enthusiasm for beautifying lawns, and among other things has become a garbage man.
"Dandelion Day," first celebrated in 1941, was a holiday on which students and faculty cleaned up the University's dandelion patches amid much merrymaking and feasting.
Pfc. Charles Wright, who was graduated from the School of Fine Arts in 1941, has written to friends here of his many experiences since he entered the services and, in telling of his feeling toward many of his duties while at his present Marine base. Parris Island, S.C., he said, "They thought enough of me to make me a garbage man."
"I hope we get out of here before lawn-mowing time," he added. Private Wright said that he is one of six men at the base who, at the time the letter was written, hoped soon to be transferred to Marine officers' candidate school.
Wright entered the Navy some time after his graduation and became a Pharmacist's Mate second class. He has since seen action and was wounded in Guadalcanal, sent back to the United States to be operated for appendicitis. He then transferred to the Marine Corps.
Wright's platoon has been chosen one of the three best-disciplined at Parris Island.
Two Graduates Meet On Italian Front
Their sons, Capt. Walton C. Ingham of the Army medical corps, who received his bachelor of science degree in medicine in 1939, and Col. William K. McNown, army air corps, who was graduated in 1933, met recently in Italy. They were friends while living in Lawrence, and attending the University.
Two University families who are especially nitered in the Italian front are Harold G. Ingham, director of the extension division, and Mrs. Ingham, and W. C. McNown, professor of civil engineering, and Mrs. McNown.
Robert Bock Visits Kansan En Route to Leavenworth
Robert L. Bock, former sports editor of the Daily Kansan, visited the campus Tuesday en route to Leavenworth, where he donated military uniform yesterday.

Provides Diagnostic Medium
Drawings such as these to psychologists are a visual expression of some emotional problem in the life history of the patient. They are a diagnostic medium but to be completely successful, the patient's explanation of his painting must also be recorded. The picture is the patient's outlet of expression; it is the way in which he lets down the guard fencing his problems and thus overcomes inhibition.
The exhibit deals with the problem of an "out of this world."
Sportorials By Charles Moffett
Coach Dewey Luster of Oklahoma had 38 players report to him the first of the week after the initial call of spring practice. Several of last year's players reported including Lebow, Sparkman, Peddycoart, Jackson, Pearcey, Mayfield, Dinkins, Harley, Cummings, Tharp and Latham. Lebow and Mayfield were all-Big Six choices on Luster's Big six championship team of last year,
Football coach Henry Shenk would start spring football practice soon now if only he knew what players would be around next fall for the season. Navy transfers at semester time often take several of a coach's dependable players as was the case last fall in many schools over the nation. So the head Jay-hawk mentor is waiting for more developments on the situation.
The basketball game between the All-Star team of the city league and the V-12 quintet that will be played tonight should be a dandy. The All-Star squad will be made up of the best players picked from the rest of the teams in the league. Dr. F. C. Allen and A. E. Woestemeyer will be the officials. Chief Veoman Starkey will coach the All-Stars and Ensign Ware will be in charge of the V-12's. This game will be the first time the V-12 team has met a team with just as many reserves as they have. Coach Ware usually substitutes by teams and the change makes little noticeable difference. However, the All Stars have some fine players headed by Mitt Allen of the Irish Rascals. Nevertheless, we pick the V-12's to win the contest on better reserve strength. The game starts at 8 o'clock and will be played in the Community building.
Comm. Porter Plans Visit to Campus
Comm. John M. Porter, Concordia, who was graduated from the University in 1921, will visit the campus soon. He has been stationed in the South Pacific for the last 20 months, and was recently promoted from lieutenant-commander to commander.
Mrs. Porter, the former Mary Brown, who was a student at the University in 1922, has been living in Lawrence since September.
T. D. Jones Story Used By Journal
An article by Prof. Tom Douglas Jones, instructor in the design department, describing an apparatus for the study of color-light technique which was constructed by Professor Jones, has been published by the American Journal of Psychology in its latest issue. In the article, the author describes the instrument and explains its uses.
Jean Porter, daughter of Comm. and Mrs. Porter, is a sophomore in the Fine Arts School at the University. Dick Porter, their son, was a student at the University last semester, but went into the army in March.
Being a magazine concerned with experimental psychology and fields of scientific psychology, it is interested in the invention as it can be used in the psychological study of color compositions and effects.
Only two other professors have used the color-through-light study as a classroom principle. The apparatus described in the article was designed and built in the psychological laboratories of the University of Kansas and the State University of Iowa under a grant from the national Academy of Science. The underlying research was aided by a grant from the Graduate Research Fund of the University of Kansas.
The instrument is now being used in the experimental laboratory of the psychology department in Frank Strong hall. It will also be of interest to other students for Professor Jones has said, "it is useful in archi- tecture, sculpture, stage design, interior decoration, advertising display, painting, textile design, and camouflage. The instrument would also lend itself, as a piece of school equipment, to many routine demonstrations in physics and psychology," he said.
Air WACs Receive Army Privileges "The extras" provided for army men also are given members of the Women's Army Corps. At Army Air fields and bases, Air-WACs are entitled to government prices at the post exchange, free mail, low movie and theater prices, and furlough rates on round-trip railroad tickets.
Machinist's Mates--mine that specialized field which each man is suited."
(continued from page one) V. McGuigan, welfare and recreation officer. "They are an excellent group of men and we are taking this opportunity to show our appreciation for the interest and cooperation they have extended in their training"

PALYTRESTER
Halls to Be Open During Summer For KU Women
All V-12 trainees who are in their second college term and those who have not had the opportunity to take a "screening" test, will report at Hoch auditorium tomorrow at 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. to take the五-hour Navy examination. They will be examined in the major fields of English, Mathematics, history, and physics. Pre-med students will take chemistry tests in place of history.
All University residence halls will be open for the sixteen week summer session from July until November. Some houses will be operating under slightly different conditions, as there will be no scholarship basis for them.
Cobin, Foster, and Jollie halls will be open all summer and will serve two meals a day, breakfast and dinner. Watkins hall will rent rooms only, and there will be no meals served, however, students may have individual kitchen privileges. Miller hall will also operate as a co-op house, but there will be no scholarship basis for the summer session in either house.
"These examinations are strictly Navy tests and were prepared by the Bureau of Naval Personnel for V-12 men," stated Lt. C. A. Michelman, assistant commanding officer of the University V-12 unit. "The information obtained through these tests is one of the factors used in the screening procedure to determine that specialized field which each man is suited."
All these houses will return to the old basis Nov. 1 when the summer session ends. All students who are planning to stay in school for the summer session should apply with Miss Marie Miller, adviser of women's office.
Those students who will stay for the shorter sessions this summer rather than the sixteen week session, should also apply to Miss Miller for housing accommodations.
Ralph Edwards Reclassified
Ralph Edwards, of the Truth or Consequences radio program is slated for military service soon.
One hundred forty V-12's will take the tests. The lists of men who will report for the examinations will be submitted to the heads of departments by Dr. Leonard Axe, University director of the V-12. As the test will be given in two, two and one-half hour sessions, the trainees will not attend classes.
Dr. A. H. Turney, professor of educatic., will administer the tests.

Some Organizations Report
41st YEAR
Fred Ellsworth Will Become Publicity Director
Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary,
will take over duties as University
Director of Information when the
resignation of K. W. Davidson becomes
effective April 1. Announcement
of Mr. Ellsworth's temporary
appointment to the post was made
this morning by Chancellor Deane
W. Malott,
Mr. Ellsworth stated that for a time at least, he would maintain two offices, keeping the alumni headquarters in the basement of Frank Strong hall and carrying out his new duties in the regular office of the Director of Information in the journalism building.
Mr. Davidson resigned his position with the University to work as advertising and promotion manager of the United Farm agency in Kansas City, Mo.
"It is the responsibility of every student on the campus to donate to the Red Cross," commented Miss Miller. "It is difficult to contact all the students and if the CVC has missed some, it would ease the drive if the students would make their contributions in my office in Fraser hall. All workers are to report the money by Saturday noon."
May Continue Next Week "If all the students have not been contacted by the end of this week, the drive will be extended through the first part of next week in an endeavor to reach our goal," announced Miss Miller. "Douglas county has gone over its goal. We will want to try and top ours."
Red Cross Donations Near Half-Way Mark As Drive Continues
Drive May Continue Next Week
Several individual cheeks have been received in Miss Miller's office. Many students have contributed $5 and one student sent in $15. One member of the CVC reported $37.65 in a canvas of houses.
Almost at the halfway mark, the Red Cross student drive today totaled $476.70, announced Miss Marie Miller, co-ordinator of the student drive. However, not all of the organized houses have reported and individual solicitations are still being made, added Miss Miller. The student goal is set at $1.000.
Thirty women students are circulating on the campus today in an effort to contact all those who have not yet been reached. The Co-eed Volunteer Corps, under the direction of Betty Jo O'Neil, major, has been unable to contact about one hundred students living in independent unorganized houses, and it is hoped that these students will be reached in this way, said Miss Miller.
Grad Heads Mission Of Americans in Iran
Heading a mission of six Americans whose job is to take over and operate all civilian transportation and reorganize the Iran system which has broken down, Floyd Shields, graduate of the University in 1925, is now in Iran as Director General of all civilian transportation.
Before being sent to Iran, he was the vice-president of the Keeslin Freight Lines of Chicago. He worked in the office of a Lawrence bus company when he attended the University.
Beauty Queen Contest Opens
The opening of the annual Jay-hawker beauty queen contest was announced this morning by Mary Morrill, editor of the magazine.
The contest will be conducted according to custom, said Miss Morrill, the houses submitting photographs from which top contests will be selected to attend a tea. From the contestants at the tea, 15 women will be selected to be photographed by Christopher studios. The pictures will be submitted to some public figure with whom the job of making final decisions will rest.
There is no limit, said Miss Morrill, on the number of pictures which may be entered from one house. Women living in unorganized houses are also urged to submit pictures.
Photographs should be left at the Jayhawker office in the sub-basement of the Memorial Union building before March 30, she said. The Jayhawker office will be open from 1:30 until 5 every week day afternoon.
Statue Painting Sends 4 to Jail For Questioning
Caught in the act of giving Uncle Jimmy Green and his young friend elaborate suits of red and green, four engineering students were put in the Lawrence city jail last night. At noon today after several conferences between University officials and members of the police department, the engineers remained in their cells.
Punishment for the offenders has not been agreed upon, Chief Bliesner said. The students probably will be released from jail sometime this afternoon, he said.
According to C. A. Bliesner, chief of police, the students' names are being withheld until others, who were in on the painting but have not yet been apprehended, are known.
Police caught the engineers at their work after being notified to come on the campus by a night watchman.
The art work done last night on the two statues in front of the Law building, on Oread street, is undoubtedly the most detailed the engineers have attempted in many years. The hair, faces, vests, and coats of the two men were done in black, white, red and green respectively.
March 17, 1892 students in the School of Law and the School of Engineering ano Architeitore disagreeed avery a few green ribbons. As a result of that disagreement lawyers and engineers never speak; like clockwork the building and grounds puts on a complete shift of paint eradicators every March, and Uncle Jimmy Green on March 17, 1944 looks like a well-pickled Christmas tree saved over from the holidays.
"No," said buildings and grounds workmen disgruntledly when questioned, "the work was not done in water colors."
Green Ribbons in 1892 Start Fight Between Lawyers, Engineers
The work of the engineers was a complete surprise to lawyers and other students this morning. Although St. Patrick's Day is the customary time for engineers to register their displeasure with the School of Law, it has been assumed that the custom of painting Uncle Jimmy was abandoned for the duration.
There are a number of theories concerning how the two groups of men grew so bitter with each other Only one, however, has the twang of authenticity. This allount was written by C. W. Baldridge, a student on hand at the first fracta, who has recently retired as a Santa Fe civil engineer. Allowing for the natural prejudices of an engineer, Mr. Baldridge's story is given credit for being fairly accurate.
Account Goes Back to 1892
His account (which may be obtained in greater detail in the alumni office) goes back to that St. Patrick's Day in 1892. At that time the law school held classes in North College just west of what is now Corbin hall. The engineers occupied the first and third floors and
in the basement of the south wing of Fraser hall. Different noon hours were observed for the two sections of the campus, lawyers being dismissed from 12 noon until 1 p.m. and students in South College (including the engineers) having dinner (lunch is a 20th century innovation) from 1 p.m. until 2 p.m. One more thing is important in the setting of the legend: the fact that "the only provision made for hats, coats, and wraps consisted of a continuous row of hooks placed around all hallways."
Law students were due to convene in the lecture room of Snow hall (which stood in front of what is now Watson library) for a lecture (continued to page four)
Many Wore Green Ribbons
When Saint Patrik's Day dawned on the University of 1892, just described, many students put on green ribbons in commemoration of the beloved Irishman. "As a matter of fun," says Mr. Baldridge, "some other students made free to relieve the wearers of their green ribbons, with the natural result that some active scuffles took place."
Nothing really happened though until that afternoon.
AST Men to Prepare For Transfer Soon
"The men are being streamlined for their departure for duty with the troops," stated Lt. Col. Watson L. McMorris, commandant of the University ASTP. "Those trainees who complete inspections will be granted weekend passes."
Regular ASTP term two and three basic engineer trainees will be occupied over the weekend with final inspections and turning in text books and excess equipment prior to their transfer to other training camps.
GAF Unbeaten Says RAF Critic
"The German air force is far from beaten," stated W. V. Crawford-Compton, wing commander of the Royal Air Force in a speech yesterday afternoon addressed to an audience composed mostly of naval aviation cadets with a few civilians, members of other armed units and women sprinkled throughout Fraser theater.
Nazi pilots are just as skillful and cunning now as in the early months of the war, this veteran fighter pilot declared. The greater maneuverability of the English Spitfires, however, often puts the German flyers at a disadvantage as these English pursuit ships can climb and turn faster and in less space than those of the enemy.
Interspersing the more serious side of his talk with many personal anecdotes, Wing Commander Crawford Compton told of several amusing incidents which arose because of the many nationalities of the pilots under his command. Among the nations represented by pilots in his wing were Norway, Canada, Czechoslavakia, United States, New Zealand, France, Sweden, China, India, Poland, and many other countries.
Teamwork is the keynote of the Allied air defense, the speaker stated. Late successes in the bombings of Germany have been worked out by having the English Spitfires which are short range fighter planes escort the bombers over the English channel. There, longer-range American fighters, which have been trailing along behind at a lower altitude, thus conserving their fuel take over, protecting the bombers while over the continent. After the mission has been completed, the English planes return to patrol the area while the bombers return to their base.
Helen Skilton Gives Map to University
Helen Skilton, who was a student at the University in 1926, visited the campus yesterday, and presented a map of the campus which she had made, to the University.
Miss Skilton is the daughter of the late Prof. C. S. Skilton, internationally known musician.
While attending the University, she took courses in mechanical drawing and map making, and after leaving K.U. she worked in defense plants.
For the past five months, she has been visiting her sister. Mrs.Richard Frazer, Winchester, Mass. a student in 1929, and she is now living in Kansas City, Mo.
Dean Springer Will Play For Carnival
Dean Springer and his Deans of Music from Kansas City have been booked for the Carnival from 9 to 12 Saturday night, March 25, instead of Forrest Cloud as previously arranged. The Union Activities committee is working in co-operation with the YWCA to plan this carnival, and the profits will go the student scholarship fund.
Springer and his band have been playing at the request of the service men at the USO in Kansas City for some time. He has been asked by the USO to go on tour for them this summer, playing at the different USO centers throughout the country.
The faculty program has been called off, but there will be booths. Some of the booths will display penny pitching, ball throwing at milk bottles, and fortune telling. The Fine Arts students have been asked to come and draw caricatures. Wally Grimes will be in charge of the booths that night.
The carnival is to be a sweater and skirt affair, and the price of admission will vary for those having activity tickets and those who do not.
Malott to Speak To Last of MMs
The commencement address for the 125 machinist's mates who will be graduated from the Naval Training Station today is to be given by Chancellor Deane W. Malott. The diplomas will be presented by Lt. C. C. Buhl, commanding officer. The exercises are to be held at 3:30 this afternoon in the auditorium of Frank Strong hall.
Division 18 is the last group of machinist's mates trainees to be graduated. The school has been converted to electrician's mate training. Seaman Lee Denton Adams of Huntington Park, Calif., will be cited as honor man of the division. He will receive promotion from fireman first class to machinist's mate third class.
Lt. (j.g.) Orville Hood, education and school officer, is commander of the division. Richard S. Bowers of Toledo, Ohio, is trainee commender,
Elmer Stone Killed On Secret Mission
Lt. Elmer Stone of the class of 42 was killed during military action in the India-China area about Jan. 4. Belated word of his death came recently to the parents, E. E Stone, of 1901 El Arbolite drive, Glendale, Calif.
Lieutenant Stone left the United States as one of a group of volunteers in the army air service, piloted a plane to India, and was killed on duty in a plane shortly after reaching his destination.
In the western Aleutian combat zone he was credited with bringing down four or more Japanese planes in combat and was listed as an "ace." (continued to page three)

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
St. Patrick's Day Is Remembered By Irish Everywhere
With the news from Dublin that the Eire or Northern Ireland border would be closed to tourists, many sons of Erin are sorely disappointed this St. Patrick's Day. Dublin hotels were booked to the limit with reservations made by North Irelanders for the holiday.
However, Irishmen the world over will honor their patron saint who lived more than 1500 years ago. A recognized holiday in the United States, St. Patrick's Day has been symbolized by the "wearin' it the green" and other Irish customs. A Christian bishop 1512 years ago, St. Patrick has become the subject of many miraculous tales and legends.
Tales told by an Irishman about his patron saint remind one of the stories of Paul Bunyan or of Baron Munchausen. St. Patrick has been accredited with banishing snakes and toads from Irish soil, and as the story goes, night did not fall for a 12-day stretch following his death. No other man is as well known and well loved by the Irish as St. Patrick. St. Pat Lived in 400 A.D.
History is rather vague concerning the exact dates and facts of his life, and much of what is stated as fact is mere probability. His birth date is placed somewhere between 373 and 389, and, while the day of his death is set as March 17, the year is either 461 or 493. He is presumed to have reached the age of 106.
British-born, Sucat was his Celtic name, and Patricius was probably added after the Catholic custom. When a boy of 16, he was stolen and enslaved by the Irish for six years. Much later, he returned to Ireland, an ordained priest and missionary, and became Bishop of Ireland in 432. His fame lay in his organizing ability, his powerful will, and his enthusiastic, tireless energy. During his lifetime, Ireland began to turn toward Catholicism, and he personally baptized 12,000 persons and founded 360 churches.
Wherever Irishman may be, in Londonderry or Dublin, in Ulster or at the University, they will remember Erin's patron saint today. —R.T.
Stockton and Singers To Appear at PTA
Dean F. T. Stockton of the School of Business as speaker, and several University singers will give a program before the Junior High PTA, Monday at 7:45 p.m., in the auditorium of Old High. The mixed octet, which sang at a University Club tea in February, will be in costume and will present American folk songs from Carl Sandburg's "American Song Bag."
Prospects for young people in the business field will be discussed by Dean Stockton. Because of unusual interest in the program, the meeting is open to everybody who wishes to come, says Prof. Elmer F. Beth, program chairman.
The singers are Mrs. Clifton Calvin, Mrs. Kelvin Hoover, Mrs. Robert M. Price, Mrs. Verner Smith, Prof. Allen Crafton, Prof. John Hankins, the Rev. Harold G. Barr and Corlett Cotton. Mrs. Wayne Replogle will be accompanist.
Lt. Hocker Is Stationed At Roswell Field, N. M.
Second-Lt. Richard L. Hocker, who joined the army in December 1942 while a student at the University, has completed his course in navigation at Hondo AAF, Texas, and is now taking bombardier training at Roswell field, Roswell, N. M. His home is Baxter Springs.
Rock Chalk Talk
Telephone numbers were exchanged also: V-12's in PT8 had their first taste of women's hell week Thursday evening when the Sigma Kappa pledge class called on them en masse, each with an egg to be signed. According to the game, every girl had to have 20 PT8 signatures on her egg or a signature representative of every branch of the service on the Hill and one officer.
The long speech each Sigma Kappa pledge is giving when she answers the phone this week is prefaced by the announcement, "I am a fishworm." The long line of figures after that is her draft number.

room was gone. Her hostesses scoured the entire house—but still no coat. The cleaners had picked it up.
Oh, for a television set: Mary Margaret Gaynor, Alpha Micron Pi reporting student, called the Sig Alph house for society news. A Phi Gam answered. "Nope," he said, "none here. Sig Alphs all died of food poisoning a week ago.—But I'll talk to you 'til some of the Phi Gams get back."
The conversation was progressing well when the boys arrived. Boist-trous male laughter followed. Also side comments which the reporter could not help but get. Having left the shower to answer the phone, her Phi Gam friend, it seemed, was standing quite nude in the circle of boys. Mary Margaret would not finish the conversatoin until he put on some pajamas.
Last Farewell Banquet Given For MM Graduates
With all the officers and Ship's Company of the past Machinist's Mates and present Electrician's Mates schools present to pay honor to the graduating 18th division, the last farewell banquet of the Naval Machinist's Mates Training school was held in the Lawrence community building last night.
Featuring food, which consisted mainly of steaks measuring from five to eight inches in diameter, as its main attraction, the party marked not only the final banquet for MM's, but also the final time the members of the 18th division would be together socially before reporting to coast ports for active sea duty.
"You have received training here which will qualify you as well as any men trained in any Class A navy school." Lieutenant Buhl stated.
- * *
Reminiscing over the now finished life of the MM school, the several officers present told the men goodbye. Lt. A. H. Buhl, commanding officer of the school, described its beginning in July, 1942, and related briefly its twenty-two months of operation and development. Men Receive Regular Training
Lieutenant Hood, division commander, was the last officer to speak to his men. He admitted that their schedule here had been "rough and tough," but he told them that it was only to prepare them for "rougher and tougher" duties which lie ahead.
Betty Cohagen, who has appeared many times on the Navy "Happy Hours," entertained the men with two popular vocals, and the 18th's own trio, Jo Lucero, Egon Hanson, and Ronald Hill, sang three numbers for the men.
R. S. Bowers, MM3c, Toledo, Ohio the trainee commander of the division during its period here, was also honored at the banquet for his record at the school. Music Featured
L. D. Adams, MMc, Huntington Park, Calif., was named at the party as honor man of the division. Mrs. Adams, who received the floral centerpiece of the banquet, was present to see her husband receive the honor.

He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and the Air Medal among other decorations.
Extremely modest, he never told his parents exactly how many enemy planes he shot down, but the fact that he was listed as an ace and was permitted to volunteer for the secret mission indicated he had downed at least four.

Vacancies Are Filled In Miller and Watkins
Filling the vacancies left at the end of the winter term, eight University women have been selected to live in Miller and Watkins halls during the present semester, stated Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, chairman of the scholarship committee.
The new residents in Miller hall are Jean Bowbily, College freshman; Mary Burlingame, College freshman; Sidney Mayfield, Fine Arts sophomore; and Dolores Sulzman, College sophomore.
Those qualifying to live in Watkins hall are Margaret Clevely, College sophomore; Doris Elaine Griffitts, College freshman; Bonita Gustafson, Business junior; and Margaret Snodgrass, Fine Arts freshman.
Chosen by a faculty committee who review the applications, the recipients of these scholarships are selected for their scholarship record, leadership ability, participation in extra-curricular activities, and their financial need.
Because of graduation of students living in the halls, and vacancies created when several of the women left for various personal reasons, there was room for these eight new residents this semester.
J. W. Twente, Dean of the School of Education, will meet with the Cloud County Teachers Association tomorrow in Concordia. In the morning he will discuss the legislative program for Kansas during 1945. In the afternoon he will speak on "What's Wrong with Schools?"

K State Tops Red Cross Quota
Students at Kansas State College exceeded their Red Cross quota by more than a $100. Their drive ended Tuesday.
Navy Wives Work For Red Cross
Combining work and pleasure is the aim of a group of Navy wives of the officers and enlisted men stationed in Lawrence, who meet from 2:30 to 4:30 every Friday afternoon in the English room of the Memorial Union building to sew for the Red Cross.
"Our meetings at first were organized for the purpose of meeting and becoming better acquainted with other Navy vies," said Mrs. C. C. Buhl, wife of Lt. C. C. Buhl, commanding officer of the Naval Training Station. "We felt rather useless holding purely social meetings, however, which resulted in our decision to do work for the Red Cross."
The women have completed 50 sewing kits which are commonly known as "housewives" by service men, 20 bedside bags, 5 pneumonia jackets, and 20 quilts, since they started their project four weeks ago. They will complete an additional 20 beside bags tolay.
The local Red Cross chapter supplies the material for the projects. The student council sponsors them by furnishing the English room as a meeting place.
Servicemen to Be Guests Tomorrow At Canteen Dance
"All new servicemen on the Hill are invited to the Union Canteen dance to be held in the Union lounge from 3 to 5 p.m. tomorrow," Eugenia Hepworth, chairman of the Union Activities committee, announced today. Music will be furnished by recordings through the public address system.
- "This will be a chance for the new servicemen to become acquainted; they should arrive at 3 p.m. to enjoy the complete two hours of dancing," she added.
Girls from all the houses will be there to dance with the men. There will be girls' cut, but boys may cut if they want to do so. Punch will be served. Activity tickets will admit the holder to the dance. Jane Atwood, freshman, will be in charge.
Several New Novels On Racial Problems Placed in Library
Several new novels dealing with racial problems have been added recently to a collection at Watson library, Miss Mildred Hershey of the reference department announced today.

Embree), "The Negro's Share" (Richard Sterner), "New World A-Coming" (Roi Ottley), "Brothers Under the Skin" (Carey McWilliams), and "Patterns of Culture" (Ruth Benedict).
New books in the fiction department include "The Lives and Times of Archy and Mehitabel" (Don Marquis), "The Complete Dashiell Hammett," "Victoria Gandolet" (Henry Bellamann), and "Indigo" (Christine Weston).
On order are 14 books which will be added to the Gillham collection, available in the browsing room. Each year a number of novels for purely recreational reading, such as fiction books or entertaining biographies, are purchased by the library with money from a fund left by Clara S. Gillham, a member of the library staff from 1894 to 1939. Miss Gillham left the fund to the University upon her death in 1939.

Bill Osborne Tells Of Active Navy Life At AIEE Smoker
Bill Osborne, V-12, former first-class radioman, spoke to members of the American Institute of Electrical Engineering, last night in the Kansan room, and described the duties of communication engineers on navy craft, the type of electrical equipment aboard ship, and some of his experiences in action.
The importance of sound and radio equipment was illustrated in some of his graphic descriptions of fighting. One of his most memorable experiences, A/S Osborne said, occurred when a large Japanese submarine fired six torpedoes at his escort destroyer. Two went off the bow, two under the ship, and two astern, and all missed the convoy which was being protected.
Electrical engineers, electrician's mates, staff members, and new officers who were elected Monday, were introduced by Dr. V. P. Hessler, professor of electrical engineering. Glen Richard, graduate student explained the organization of the American Institute of Electrical Engineering.
ASTP Men Invited To Corbin Hall Dance
The members of the ASTP unit on the campus have been invited to a dance tomorrow afternoon which the girls of Corbin hall are having in their honor, according to Jane Lorimer, president. Lasting from 3 to 5, the St. Patrick's dance will include a short musical program and refreshments. Emily Hollis, college sophomore, is in charge of the preparations.

CVC to Promote Officers, Newspaper
Plans for a meeting March 28 to promote officers and the publication of a newspaper for former University students now in the armed services were developed at the CVC meeting last night in the Union.
Mary Louise Rowsey, College junior, has been appointed chairman of the newspaper committee. Other members are Shirley Kelley, College junior; Margaret Ott, College sophomore; Virginia Brehm, College sophomore, and Jane Owen, College freshman.

Cautioning students to review the forms of conventional business letters, Prof. John B. Virtue stated that the English proficiency examinations will begin at 8:30 tomorrow morning.
Study Letter Writing For Proficiency Exam Prof. Virtue Warns
Approximately 75 students have registered to take the examinations when the last check was made at 2:30 this afternoon. Only those students who present registration cards are allowed to take the tests which last nearly three hours, although many students finish in less time. This number is about normal, according to officials in the College office, and consists mostly of juniors, with several seniors signed up, however.
The inclusion of a business letter in the group of three pieces of writing required is new, stated Professor Virtue, and may cause some of the students a little trouble. The other two topics will be selected by the student from two lists of subjects as usual.

Spring Sports Enthusiasts to Sign Petition
With several other members of the Big Six continuing their minor sports, University of Kansas Athletic officials are wondering if there is enough interest on the campus for baseball and tennis teams.
As the spring semester this year extends from March to July 1, the weather would be ideal for the spring sports. Athletic Director Karl Klooz has been asked by a few students to provide a baseball team, and he thinks there is good material for a team, but whether there is enough interest or not he isn't sure.
The University is prepared to provide equipment for a team, if a sufficient number of men were to report, a representative team could be formed.
All those who would be interested in playing baseball this spring are asked by Mr. Klooz to come in to the business office and sign a petition stating such. Games could be scheduled with surrounding service whose semester extends to July 1, teams, and maybe other schools Mr. Klooz asks that the petition be signed not later than March 25, so2 if enough men sign, work can be started soon.
Mr. Klooz asked that anyone interested in intercollegiate tennis confer with him. He understands that there are several outstanding tennis players on the campus, and is willing to promote the sport.
GREEN RIBBONS--the referees for the NCAA playoffs at Kansas City next weekend have been announced. The four cage officials are Roland Gibbs, Springfield, Ill; Ed Hess, Kansas City; Abb Curtis, representing the Southwest, and Emil Piluso of Portland, Ore.
(continued from page one) by some noted attorney. The lecture was scheduled at 1:30.
At that time Uncle Jimmy Green was Dean of the Law School, and his popularity had caused the Law boys to adopt Green as the Law School color. Because of this, the lawyers were all careful to wear green ribbons on St. Patrick's day. Lawyers Wear Their Ribbons
Shortly after the law noon hour someone called the office of the secretary in South College and informed William Kutz (who was the University guide) that the Law school boys were coming over to South College in a body and that they would all wear green ribbons, which the South side boys might take off if they could.
At 1:30 p.m. the lawyers marched through the halls of Fraser, shouting their law yells to the few students who happened to be loitering around the building (it was south side dinner time) and proceeded to Snow hall, where they hung their coats and hats up in the hall and went on in to the lecture.
At two p.m. the Engineers came back. News of the Law School defiance spread and as a result, a committee was sent out to capture law hats and coats and hide them in the "Chapel" on second floor of Fraser. A messenger was sent then to the lawyers, carrying word that their wraps would be returned peacefully when they had turned over their green ribbons to the engineers.
The scrap that ensued in the north wing of Fraser is one of the reasons why the floor in the building squeaks so today.
After the fight was over, it was learned that the challenge was telephoned over by only one or two laws; the rest of the group knew nothing about it in advance.
The scrimmage, however unplanned, served to get the engineers and the lawyers sufficiently mad at each other to start a year in and year out fight which is still going strong in its 54th year.
Sportorials By Charles Moffett
The latest prediction that basketball has a great future after the war, comes from Adolph Rupp, coach of the University of Kentucky, who are one of the favorites for the national invitation tournament at New York Monday. Rupp says basketball is the infant of American sports and still needs to be developed. A series of "bowl" games like football's post season contests will be played in New York, and Chicago or other large cities over the nation.
The Kansas-born Wildcat coach predicted a post-war era of huge auditoriums to accommodate basketball crowds. What the game needs most now is an outstanding individual to "hang his hat on." Baseball had its Babe Ruth, football its Red Grange, golf its Bobby Jones, tennis its Bill Tilden, and racing its Man oWar. Mr. Basketball hasn't appeared yet, but one of these days a cage player will come along, better than anyone else with all the qualifications for a great performer. Then crowds will double and triple in size.
Rupp's teams keep winning consistently as is proven by his record During his 14-year stay at Kentucky his quintet have won more than four out of every five games, winning 231 while losing only 53. The Wildcats have won six out of eleven conference tournaments played.
***
These four men should give the tournament some fine officiating as experienced and veteran whistle tooters. Gibbs is well known in the Big Ten; Hess officiates in the Big Six; Curtis is the best in the Southwest; and Piluso is athletic director of the Multonomah club in Portland, Ore.
Thirty-six teams from fifteen states have been signed to compete in the National AAU tournament, opening in Denver Sunday for an all week run. Phillips "66" are slight favorites to keep the championship they now hold . . . Co-favorites for the New York invitational tourney are Kentucky and the Oklahoma Aggies . . . Semi-finals for the state high schools on this week end with the finals to be played at Topeka next week.

Delta Gama. Beta Theta Pi is the only fraternity house which has turned in its contribution.
Among the residence halls and coops are Corbin hall, Ricker hall, Jolliffe hall, Wager hall, Harmon Co-op, and Kaw Koettes Co-op. Independent houses which have reported their amount are Westminster hall, Campus house, Hillcrest house, Cutter house, YMCA house, 1234 Oread, 1134 Mississippi, 1247 Tennessee, 1230 Tennessee, 1247 Keentucky, 1420 Kentucky, 1329 Vermont, and 1231 Oread.
"I have every hope of reaching the student goal," commented Miss Miller. "The success of the remainder of the drive depends upon the students not living in organized houses, and I hope that we will hear a good response from these students. Those who have given have responded well, with an average of $1 apiece. The members of the CVC have donated much of their time and effort and they are to be commended on their good work."
V-12's Defeat All-Stars in Final
Led by John Schimenz, former member of the St. Louis Naval Training School team who made 14 points, the victorious V-12 basketball team defeated the Lawrence League All-Stars 40-33 in the final game of the league on the community building court last night.
Schimenz, who resides in Milwaukee, dropped in two free throws and split the net six times with a onehanded push shot which Mitt Allen, former University star under his famous father, found difficult to guard.
The V-12's took an early lead, but the All-Stars whittled it down to 22-19 at the half. Immediately after the half on a bucket by Rogers, another former University star, the All-Stars moved within one point of a tie, but were unable to withstand the youth and speed of the V-12 quintet. After Hagerdorn missed a chance to pull the All-Stars ahead with two attempted charity tosses, two free tosses by Heim and a free throw and a basket by Schimizz put the V-12's ahead. 27-21.
Hoke dropped two long ones through the rim, and Hagerdorn and Smith contributed a set-up each for the All-Stars but the V-12's collected two buckets apiece from Pyle and Heim, and one of Lutz's quick flip-ins to send the score to 38-29. Hoke spotted another long one, and Allen flipped a one-hander in from near the free-throw circle in a final bid, but Lutz ended the scoring with a bucket from the side at 40-33 shortly before the final gun. In the last intule of play the ball changed hands several times, but both teams were nearing exhaustion and neither were able to score.
Hoke, All-Star from the S.O.W. Ads., took second place scoring honors with 10 points, 8 of them with four long shots. Lutz, V-12 from Ohio, came in third with 8 points.
Dr. F. C. Allen, "Phog" to all University fans, and A. H. Woesteyer, Journal World newsman refereed the game. Yeoman Maurie Roberts acted as score-keeper.

Shenk Announces Spring Practice March 27
Spring football practice will get under way March 27 despite the fact that most of the participants may be gone by the time football season rolls around, Coach Henry Shenk said yesterday.
About forty or fifty men, mostly newcomers, are expected to turn out for practice by Shenk and Elmer Schaake, assistant coach. Several letter men probably will be available.
Shenk probably will face a real problem in building a team for next season inasmuch as several Navy V-12 letter men, Robert George, Joe Dickey, Frank Gruden and company, who at the end of last season were expected to be available next season, already have been transferred by the navy. Then, too, letter men that are left and new players in the navy that Shenk will work with in spring practice may be transferred at the end of the semester's ending July 1 and next November 1.
Letter men from last year's team who are still in school and who probably will turn out for practice are John Bergin, Bill Chestnut, Don Faulkner, Bob Miller, Charles Moffett, Bar Barington and Leroy Robison, backs, and Dan Chase, Charles Keller, Warren Reigle, Don Hird and Junius Penny, guards. Shenk is especially doubtful whether Hird or Penny will be available next season.

Miller Hall Loses $150.50 in Cash To Night Thief
Thefts, amounting to $150.50 in cash, occurred early this morning at Miller hall, women's residence hall, reported Mrs. S. M. Stayton, housemother. No jewelry or other valuables were reported missing, although a complete check has not yet been made.
Since several of the women were still up studying until two a.m., the robber must have entered sometime between two and six a.m. this morning, according to Mrs. Stayton. His manner of entry is not known although the outside door to the balcony on the second floor was found open this morning at six o'clock. The fire escape is directly outside this door and the thief may have gained access to the dormitory through this entrance.
No one in the house heard any disturbance, said Mrs. Statton, but several of the women's rooms were evidently entered and the money, mostly in small amounts, was taken from drawers and closets. A more complete check is being made this
afternoon. No other houses on the hill have been bothered, according to latest reports.

Swastika Flies Over Hungary
Ancient Hungary caught again in German domination she has always resented but was powerless to oppose, awoke to find the Swastika over her cities and towns today—victim of Adolf Hitler's promise that when he goes to defeat he will tear Europe to ribbons with him.
Neutrals' capitals and diplomatic circles throughout the world speculated widely on this new chapter in emergency consolidation of Nazi Europe. One big question mark was the role played by Admiral Nicholas Horthy the regent of Hungary and its uncrowned monarch.
One report said that Horthy had flatly rejected Nazi demand for an all-Hungarian defense line against the invading Russians and was imprisoned for his pains. Another report said that Horthy has sanctioned the Nazi occupation. In any case, all sources agree that it was an established fact that German troops called from the vast reserve force of man power still within the Reich have taken over Hungary.
On the face of it, Hitler's military seizure of a satellite nation he has almost coddled in the past, evincing almost unusual respect and com-
session for its magical sensibilities and devotion to independence, appeared to be dictated by the rapid advances of the Russian armies into Rumanian Besarabia.
Premier Marshall Joseph Stalin's swiftly moving legions are still a very great distance from Hungary and Hitler can hardly invision overnight collapse of the Rumanian army, and even less the forbidding Carpathian mountains which encircle both Hungary and Rumania.
Two possibilities therefore seem to explain the German move; one is Hungarian dissatisfaction with the

CVC to Continue Drive This Week
Members of the Co-ed Volunteer Corps, under the direction of Betty Jo O'Neal, major, solicited the workers in Lindley hall at 1:30 this afternoon for contributions to the University Red Cross drive, according to Miss Marie Miller, co-ordinator of the civilian Red Cross drive.
Several organizations have notified Miss Miller of the amount of their contributions, but this cannot be added to the total until the checks arrive, said Miss Miller. Today's total rose but slightly over yesterday's to reach $687.34. The civilian goal is set at $1,000.
Other organizations are still to be heard from, however, and final tabulations will be made at the end of the week. All CVC workers who have not yet reported their collections should do so at once, Miss Miller emphasized.

Raymond Hall, associate professor of zoology and curator of mammals at the University of California, Berkley, has been appointed chairman of the department of zoology and curator of Dyche Museum of Natural History, Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced today. Hall's appointment will become effective July 1.
Dr. Henry Higgins Lane, of the department of zoology and present curator of the museum, will retire as chairman inasmuch as he will have reached the departmental head retirement age, but will continue as professor of zoology. Dr. Lane came to the University of Kansas in 1922 from Phillips University, Enid, Okla. Prior to two years at Phillips, he had been professor of zoology at the University of Oklahoma from 1908 to 1920.
Dr. Lane received his doctor of philosophy degree from De Pauw University in 1899, his master of arts degree from Indiana in 1903 and his doctorate from Princeton in 1915. Dr. Lane is a member of the American Society of Naturalists, the American Society of Zoologists, the American Microscopic Society, Phi Beta Kappa, and Sigma Chi.
Dr. Hall is a graduate of the University of Kansas with a bachelor's degree in 1924. He received his doctor of philosophy degree from the University of California. In 1942, he was awarded a Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship for study in the field of zoology, one of the highest recognitions that can come to a scientist. At the University of California he is also, in addition to serving as curator of mammals, in charge of the University zoological farm.
Stassen Will Not Seek Nomination
Wash, (INS)—In his first formal declaration of political intention, Lt. Comm. Harold Stassen, former governor of Minnesota said in a letter to Navy Sec. Frank Knox, that he will "do nothing personally to secure the nomination. But if, not withstanding his position, I were to be nominated I would consider it my plain duty to accept and would do so, requesting inactive duty for sufficient time to discuss with the people the issues and problems of the future."
Crafton's Movie Receives Praise From Alumni
A moving picture film on the transformation of the University of the war program, directed by Prof. Allen Crafton of the speech department, was sent to Prof. William M. Moore of the journalism department at the University of Wisconsin for the program of a KU alumni meeting at Madison. In checking over the film before its main showing, members of the Wisconsin extension division, said Professor Moore in a recent letter, were out-spoken in their laudatory words for the excellence of the scenario and the direction.
Fifteen alumni attended the meeting.
University Bids Farewell to ASTP In Assembly This Morning; Smoker for Trainees Tonight
Only the men in the ASTP themselves will be able to answer the question of how great a service it is to the army to train carefully selected men in basic sciences and fundamental subjects for a brief period. E.B. Stouffor, dean of the Graduate School, told members of the ASTP at their farewell assembly at 10:30 this morning in Hoch auditorium.
As long as the men are in the service they will be answering the question of whether mathematics, English, and other subjects help in performing the more or less technical tasks in the army. The army wants the answer, but only the men can give the real answer. The University thinks the answer is yes, Dean Stouffer said.
Last ASTP Review At 11 a.m. Tomorrow
Guzman Interprets Bolivian Politics
The ASTP trainees who are leaving the campus this week will have their final military review and parade at 11 o'clock to tomorrow morning. The review will be held on the athletic field south of Lindley hall.
Chancellor Deane W. Malott and the officers' staff will review the men in their last military ceremony before their departure.
The complex political situation in Bolivia will be explained by Capt. Jose Guzman, medical officer of the Bolivian Army, in a lecture at 4:30 today in Fraser theater.
Captain Guzman is a member of the Bolivian Army on a special mission of studies for the Ministry of Public Health. He has held many prominent offices in Bolivia in the years in the war with Paraguay as field of medicine and served eight Adjutant General of the Bolivian Medical Corps.
He is a graduate of Ohio Wesleyan and his wife, the former Julia Perry, was graduated from the College in 1928.
Captain Guzman is appearing under the auspices of the departments of political science and romance languages and literatures.
Council Will Discuss Fall Rushing Program
Fall rushing will be discussed this evening by Women's Pan Hellenic Council at 8 p.m. in the lounge of the Memorial Union building, Doris Dunkley, president, has announced.
Women on the council are concerned now, Miss Dunkley explained, with correlating a satisfactory fall rush week with the scholastic program which the University has outlined for the coming year.
James W. Scott Enlists; Stationed at Leavenworth
James W. Scott of Mankato, a student in the University from last May to the close of the five-week session, enlisted in the army last December and is now stationed at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Scott is a member of Delta Upsilon fraternity. His mother, Mrs. James M. Scott, was a graduate of the School of Fine Arts in 1919.
Theodore Bean, one of the ASTP star basketball players, replied to Dr. Stouffer's speech, expressing the appreciation of the men to the University and their enjoyment of their stay here.
The men, as shown by the stiff program of mathematics, physics, chemistry, English, geography, and history, were highly selected. Reminding them that they have been engaged in an experiment in education, Dean Stouffer told the men they carried it out well.
Instructors Pleased With Work
"The instructors were delighted to have you in their classes," he said. In the army examination given to the men in January in one subject, five men exceeded the scores of men who were used to establish the national norm.
Bean Replies for Trainees
"What you men have done in carrying so many courses so well may well have an influence on later courses given by the University," remarked Dr. Stouffer.
Col. W. L. McMorris commended the men for their attitude and conduct while they have been stationed here. He gave them additional instructions on how to conduct themselves in the army.
Commenting on their interest in sports and how they participated, Dr. F. C. Allen made several remarks to the assembly.
Smoker for Men Tonight
A farewell smoker for the departing trainees will be given tonight in the mess hall of Lindley hall. A piano will be provided, and the men will join in singing popular songs and old familiar tunes. Thirty gallons of ice cream, 100 dozen doughnuts, 30 cases of coca cola, 50 dozen cookies, and coffee will be the refreshments served. Cigarettes will also be furnished.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
University Will Miss The Familiar Khaki
In a short while Lindley hall will be vacated, the library will return to its pre-war hushed atmosphere and the khaki-uniformed men will no longer march across Mt. Oread. The AST's are returning to the regular army after a brief span of intensive college work.
In reality, the whole campus is going to miss the ASTs, and when the AST's get into army camps again, they may miss KU, too.
The University administration and University women have both expressed different regrets at the Army's departure. The Navy has been non-committal on the subject.
Pvt. George Hart, ASTP from Newark, Del., puts it this way in his "From AST to APO" in a recent issue of Yank:
Say good-bye to the coeds and class.
Say good-bye to the slide rules and textbooks.
class,
And take one last spree
And take one last spree As you finish term III
For you're going right out on you—ear!
You're just like the rest of the dunes.
It will make little difference to study.
For win, lose, or draw,
You'll be eating it raw.
And heading right back for the troops.
The dear days at college are over
The profs and the T-squares are
gone.
So cry in your beers,
You poor engineers,
You'll be digging a ditch from
here on!
Maxine Jones Chosen Kappa Phi President

Other officers elected at the meeting were Lonnie Kelley, College junior, vice-president; Mary Lou Elliott, Business junior, treasurer; Bonnie Barnes, Business junior, secretary; and Mildred Whited, College sophomore, corresponding secretary.
In the pledging ceremony following the election, seven girls were pledged by the organization. The pledges are Marjorie Easter, College freshman; June Peterson, College freshman; Margaret Snodgrass, Fine Arts freshman; Eva Lee Yung, College freshman; Barbara Tallamonts, College freshman; Peggy McIntire, College freshman; and Geneva Brown, College freshman.
Former Student Has Exciting Experience During Stay in Egypt
Commanding a detail of men that guarded the house President Franklin Roosevelt was living in during the Mena conference was John J. Verburin's most exciting assignment in Egypt. "Egypt," writes the former employee of the University Press, "is the most exciting place I have been since leaving the University in the spring of 1942."
Mr. Verburg, a member of the military police, worked in the journalism building while studing design in the School of Fine Arts,.His wife, now living in Oskaloosa, Iowa, was a nurse in Watkins Memorial hospital.
At the present time he is in West Africa with the army 'air corps.
Rock Chalk Talk
Nicotined Stomach: Ed Fritz and his new habit of chewing tobacco has been the biggest worry of the Phi Psi brotherhood for several days. Last night their problem was unwittingly solved—and although by tomorrow their chapter may be one less in number—at least it will harbor no chewers.
By MARY
MORRILL
In the hallway at the zero hour of 11:13 Big Jack Bouse playfully tackled Fritz from the rear. As a result of the impact, a half plug of Bull Durham in the latter's mouth went down in one easy gulp. When last heard from, Fritz, with no thoughts of ever taking another chew, was in bed with violent gastric disturbances.
And the punch wasn't spiked: Ruth Marsh, Harman Co-op freshman, didn't wear her glasses to the Inter-Fraternity Council formal, and she had quite a bit of trouble with the stairs. After barely catching her twice, date Tom Hensley, Sig Ep, began calling out floors. In

Goebel, KU Editor Now at Ft. Myers, Fla.
What you'll do for the army: All during his training, Frank Sims, Phi Psi last year on the Hill, told members of his class, none of whom were K. U. men, that he was going to give the Rock Chalk yell loud and long, if and when, he survived the training and became a bomber pilot. Recently, at Douglas, Ariz., he received his wings. No sooner had the whole class been officially graduated than a military guard approached Frank and escorted him to the platform where he was commanded to give, over the loud speaker, "this Rock Chalk yell he talked about so much." With several thousand eyes trained on him, including those of a few major generals and colonels, Frank, bashful, engineering type that he is, did as he was told.

Menze Retains Season's Starters For NCAA Tourney
Ames, Iowa, March 21 — As the Iowa State College basketball team goes into its last week of practice before the NCAA western playoff tournament at Kansas City, Friday and Saturday, Coach Louis Menzel is still standing by the startline lineup which closed the Big Six season.
That means that Ray and Roy Webde will appear at forwards, Price Brookfield at center, and Gene Oulman and Robert Sauer at guards.
Coach Menze says that Sauer shows complete recovery from the appendectomy which took him away from the squad in mid-season. He whipped into mid-season form in the Kansas game and retained that performance in workouts last week. James Myers, first replacement for Sauer, has gained an above-par basket-shooting level in post season practice. William Block is the other No. 1 understudy for the starting five.
Those seven players plus Roy Ewoldt are the eight carryovers from the traveling squad of the regular season who will make the trip to Kansas City. Coach Menzel will take a 10-man squad. The two additional men will be selected from Dick Bliss, Gerald Myatt, and Earl Kelso, all civilians.
Those civilians, along with two Navy V-5 transfers from William Jewell College, all volunteered to help in practice sessions as soon as the acceptance of the NCAA bid was announced. The new Navy V-5 men on the squad are Robert Kazmaier of Belpree, Kan., and Sanford Reed, Jr., of Linn Grove.
Sgt. Harry Akers, Law Graduate, Killed
Word of the death of Staff Sgt. Harry Akers, a graduate of the University, has been received by his wife, Mrs. Zerita Akers, 10351$^{2}$ Massachusetts street.
According to the notification from the war department, Sergeant Akers was killed in a plane crash somewhere in North Africa. He had left the United States less than two weeks ago.
Sgt. Akers received his bachelor of arts degree from the University in 1940 and his bachelor of law degree in 1942. Following his graduation from the School of Law, he was admitted to the Kansas Bar and was assistant county attorney of Montgomery county until called to the army. He was a member of Pi Kappa Alpha, social fraternity and Phi Alpha Delta, legal fraternity. While in school he worked at Brick's and managed the Cottage.
Before going to North Africa, Sgt. Akers was stationed at Barksdale Field, Shreveport, La., where he was trained as a radio gunner.
Mrs. Akers, who has been employed at the Marinello Beauty Shop, has gone to Coffeyville to be with her husband's parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Akers.

On the contrary, the Russians are exerting the heavy pressure they can bring to bear of the historic routes of conquest to the west. One Soviet column is pressing toward Lwow, the great communication center of Poland. Other Soviet troops are bearing down on Baiti in Bessarabia, which leads to a route which skirted the northern reaches of the Sarpathians. On the deep southern front which would menace Hungary itself, the Russians have not yet taken Nikolayev or Odessa.
Sportorials By Charles Moffett
A theory on sports as played by service teams has come to us through James Gunn, former journalism student here on furlough. The past basketball season produced many hard playing, at times rough, quintets from the armed forces. Some were a little smoother in their play and won more games because of it. The Hutchinson NAS was one of the many examples in this type of play, being smart enough to fool officials at many times as their college opponents were usually unexperienced. No doubt remains as to the Hutchinson team's ability for they beat the strong Oklahoma Aggies and won first place in the Naismith league at Wichita. But the exhibition of muckerism they displayed at Hoch auditorium was far from pleasing to local cage fans.
The theory Gun presents is that the servicemen playing on the teams are taught to win, no matter at what cost.
This must be the case in battle, and they are taught to give their all to win. Hard, aggressive play is advocated and the men soon acquire a fighting spirit, so necessary in any game. This may be one of the reasons for the many fine service teams, but we think the excellent material available is the most important factor.
Also, the Fort Riley Centaurs were one of the cleanest football teams met all season long by the Jayhawkers and they were composed of ex-college stars and pros. Although the soldiers played hard and fast they never once were guilty of any off-color play. This could probably be credited to the Centaur coach, Major Fran Welch, former Emporia State Teachers mentor.
All this leads us to believe that the difference lies in the personnel of the camp which the team represents. Some athletic officers may wish their men to play differently than others as well as coaches who teach the game unlike some other coach.
Nevertheless, credit should be given service teams for keeping sports going during war-time and for the many fine athletes developed that may have never had the chance under ordinary conditions. These teams have provided competition for nearby colleges unable to travel far.
Canuteson Becomes President of ASHA
Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson has returned from Cincinnati where he was elected president of the American Student Health Association last week. Dr. Canuteson succeeds Dr. J. P. Rittenour of Pennsylvania State College.
The University physician had held the position of secretary-treasurer of the organization for the past four years. He was succeeded in that position by Dr. Helen B. Pryor of Stanford University.
Saturday, Dr. Lawrence B. Holden, director of the health service at the University of Colorado who had also attended the meeting in Cincinnati, was Dr. Canuteson's guest in Lawrence.
University to Receive Spinning Wheel From Denver Alumna
A 74-year-old former student received a postcard addressed to someone else, and the University has now inherited a spinning wheel.
Notices were sent to Denver, Colo. alumni by the KU alumni office announcing a meeting for the Denver graduates at which Laurence C. Woodruff, registrar, was to be guest of honor. A former student happened to see this notice addressed to a friend and Mr. Woodruff soon received a letter from the woman who attended the University in 1883 when she lived near Ottawa, saying that she would like to talk to the registrar when he arrived in Denver.
A telephone conversation revealed the fact that the former student wished to donate to her alma mater a spinning wheel which she said her grandparents brought to Kansas from Pennsylvania. Some old photographs of classmates and Pi phi sisters will also be given.
These contributions probably will be exhibited in either the Lawrence room in Watkins Memorial Library or Dyche museum, according to Prof. Woodruff.

'Boot Training' Makes Superior Officers, WAVE Officers Say
Stressing the opportunities existing for those who join the WAVES, Lt. Rosalie Martin, head of the WAVE recruiting office in Kansas City, Mo., and Lt. Dorothy Canfield interviewed senior girls last week in the office of the adviser of women. The importance of non-routine work in the Navy, and just how WAVES are selected to do much of today's vital war work was emphasized.
Another meeting of women interested in the WAVES has been tentatively set for Tuesday, April 18.
There are unlimited opportunities for girls in the fields of medical technology, journalism, business administration, physics, chemistry, and mathematics. Several colorful and interesting pamphlets have been left in Miss Miller's office, and girls are invited to come in anytime and read them.
College graduates or women with two years of college and an equivalent of two years of business or teaching experience are still being accepted for OCS. Today, however, girls are encouraged to enlist, receive the essential "boot" training and then, with this experience, apply for a commission. It is believed that WAVES with basic training make far superior officers to those who apply immediately for a lieutenancy.
K. U. has many graduates already in the WAVES. Claudine Scott, who graduated from the School of Business last semester, will enter OCS at Smith College, New York, on April 1. Mary Lou Holloway, who

500 Will Attend Art Conference Of KSTA,KSFA,高 schools And Occupational Therapists Friday
Captain Guzman appeared under the auspices of the departments of political science, romance languages, and literatures.
With exhibits in four University buildings and an elaborate program including 18 speakers, the annual Art Conference and Exhibit will get under way Friday morning in Spooner-Thayer, with an estimated attendance of five hundred. The activities will conclude Saturday afternoon.
The purpose of the joint Art Conference and Exhibit is to enable the art departments of Kansas schools to see what is being done by other schools of similar size, to obtain constructive criticism of student work by competent judges, and to organize the Kansas occupational therapists. The meeting will be a combined one of the Kansas State Art Teachers Association, the high school art conference, the Kansas State Federation of Art, and the occupational therapists of Kansas. Registration at Union
Entrants will register from 8:30 to 10 am. Friday in the lobby o the Union building after which Mrs W. F. McNulty, research artist is crafts in Stockton, will give a talk in Spooner-Thayer on inkle weaving. Demonstrations and lectures will run continuously throughout the two-day session and numerous exhibits will be displayed in Spooner-Thayer, Dyche museum, Fraser hall, and the Union building lounge.

Captain Guzman was graduated from Ohio Wesleyan, and his wife Julia Perry, was graduated from the University of Kansas in 1928. They have four children, two born in South America and two in North America.

Captain Reveals Bolivian Attitude
"What Bolivia and the South American countries really want is more understanding," said Capt. Jose Guzman, medical officer of the Bolivian army, in a lecture yesterday afternoon in Fraser theater, "and it is not achieved by sending second-rate movie actors."
Captain Guzman pointed out that the intelligent people of South America were often insulted by our attitude. He compared Bolivia in its economic problem to a "beggar sitting on a bench of gold," and it was suggested by him that she need our help as she does not have our education or background. The good neighbor policy, he said, did not prove a success, as it only led to fighting among the Latin American countries as to who should receive the most money from the United States.
"Most of all, Bolivians want to fight. They feel cheated because they are at war with the Axis, and yet they are not allowed to fight," Captain Guzman pointed out, "They want to be trusted with some responsibility."
Former Students Get Commissions
Two former students of the University have been commissioned second lieutenants in the Army Air corps after, completing the Army Air Forces advanced flying school training at Williams Field, Chandler, Ariz.
They are Robert L. Coleman, son of Mr. and Mrs. James P. Coleman, Junction City, student in journalism from 1940-43, and Hugh E. De-Water, son of Mr. and Mrs. Orla Joe DeWater, Hutchinson, student in the University and member of Sigma Chi from 1942-43.
Davis Appointed Prosecutor Of ASC Court
Peggy Davis, College senior, and president of the All-Student Council, was appointed prosecutor of the student court at a meeting of the council last night.
Duties of Miss Davis will include the prosecution of such cases as traffic and smoking violations which come within the court's jurisdiction.
Jeanne Hollis, College junior, was elected vice-president of ASC to take the place of Janet Marvin who was graduated, and Eugene Kittle. College freshman, was chosen treasurer to fill the vacancy left by Reed Whetstone, a graduate.
New representatives on the Council are Robert Campbell, College freshman; Evelyn Mercer, College sophomore; and Clarence Engle, College junior.
Less than $300 short of the civilian goal of $1,000,the Red Cross total was brought up to $702.37 today, announced Miss Marie Miller, coordinator of the University civilian Red Cross drive.
"The Red Cross is the only agency operating overseas for the boys' comfortable living." commented Miss Miller. "and $1,000 is not too much to ask from this campus. We are not forcing the students to contribute, but merely asking, and in view of the emergency of the situation we should make our full quota."
Red Cross Nears Goal Needing $300 More
Members of the Co-ed Volunteer Corps, under the direction of Betty Jo O'Neal, major, collected $12.03 yesterday from the workers at Lindley hall. Several students have made individual contributions of $2 and $3 in Miss Miller's office.
However, many organizations are still unreported, said Miss Miller, and the CVC members are contacting these houses in an effort to get the figures tabulated as soon as possible.
Chancellor Reports Inter-Faith Fellowship To Honor W. A. White
The William Allen White interfaith fellowship has been established at the University of Kansas by the National Hillel Foundations, Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced today. The fellowship will be an annual award, in the amount of $300, assigned preferably to a junior student who has done most to promote inter-faith amity on the campus. Chancellor Malott said that with the permission of the Foundation he would appoint a selection committee to choose the recipient of the fellowship.
The fellowship has been set up by the Hillel Foundations under the auspices of B'Nai B'Rith, the nation's oldest and largest service organization. With the announcement of the fellowship, the Foundation also made public an acceptance statement from Chancellor Malott in which he said, "We accept the fellowship with deep appreciation and are very much honored by your confidence in the University of Kansas."
The establishment of the award at the University follows the pattern created by the Foundation at the University of Alabama, Illinois. Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Ohio State in honor of great personalities who have made a distinct contribution to civilization.
In its announcement through Chancellor Malott, the Hillel group referred to the great Kansas editor as one "whose journalistic career was marked by a life-time crusade against bigotry and intolerance."
Students May Have Jayhawkers Today
The new issue of the 1944 Jayhawker appeared on the campus at 1:30 today, with students obtaining their copies at the Book Exchange in the sub-basement of the Memorial Union building.
Much of San Sebastiano already had crumbled under the molten lava stream.
The Book Exchange will be open from 1:30 until 5 this afternoon and Thursday and Friday afternoons of this week to students wishing to obtain the magazine.
Only students who have subscriptions can obtain the magazine now, Mary Morrill, editor, has announced. Although it will probably be possible for students to purchase single issues of the current number later on, she said, none will be sold until all subscribers have called for their copies.
Students who have subscriptions are urged to call for the magazine as soon as possible.
Naples, (INS) — Mount Vesuvius quieted appreciably today but not before killing at least two small Italian boys and rendering 12,000 persons homeless. Allied military government authorities ordered the evacuation of Cercola, San Sebastiano, and Massa Di Somma, all of which were reported doomed.
Mt. Vesuvius Quiet Today After Inflicting Damage
Next week the magazine may be called for during the same hours at the Jayhawker office, across the hall from the Book Exchange.

Postponed until 8 p.m. tonight, the meeting of the Youth Council of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People scheduled for last Friday night was cancelled because of unexpected conflicts, Irving Burton, president, has announced. The meeting tonight will be held in the Pine room of the Union building.

Prowlers Enter Foster to Steal
Not until late yesterday afternoon did the women at Foster hall discover that their house, like Miller hall, had been entered by thieves early in the morning and robbed of $2.50.
Footprints outside a basement window and, a broken lock on the window indicate that the Prowlers entered the building through the basement. They left the house through the basement door, which locks only from the inside and which was found open by the maid yesterday morning.
Jeanne Johnson missed her money yesterday morning, but thought that it might have been misplaced. It was not until Jane Ann Willision missed $8.00 that all the women in the house began to check their coin purses.
Housemother Phones Police
As soon as it was discovered that several women had lost money, Mrs. R. H. Wilson, housemother, phoned the police. An investigation led to the discovery of the footprints outside the basement window. The police were to check the footprints found at Foster hall with those discovered at Miller hall. Reports from the police department this morning state that no additional information or clues have been uncovered by the police.
The women who reported losses at Foster hall are as follows:
Jane Anne Willison, $8; Marion DeVault, $8.50; Jacqueline Goodell,
$7; Betty Rendleman, $6; Adline Pfaff, $5; Elizabeth Posnowr, $4;
Jeanne Johnson, 2.50; Phyllis Good,
$2.50; Patricia Graham, $3; Charlotte Bartley, $1.50; Beverly Reitz, $1;
Lucille Hammer, $1; and Dorothy Knowles, $2.50.
Steal from 12 at Miller
Twelve of the 42 women living at Miller hall, who reported losses are: Virginia Thompson, $7; Joyce McCoy, $18; Gloria Schmitendorf, $40; Mary Turkington, $10.50; Dorothy Wynne, $28; Anna Mae Johnston, $9; Elinor Kline, $9; Ruth Tuley, $1; Dorothy Carr, $3; Iva Rothenberger, $7; Annette Steinle, $9; and Jean Moser, $10.
Marching to the cadence set by the AST Unit's Drum and Bugle Corps, the ASTP trainees who are leaving for duty with the troops this week, gave their last military review at 10:30 this morning before Cancellor Deane W. Malott and Lt. Col. Watson L. McMorris, commandant of the local ASTF unit.
The review was scheduled to be held on the athletic field south of Lindley hall, but owing to the muddy condition of the field resulting from the recent snows and rains, the men paraded through the campus on Oread Avenue.
Students hurrying to classes stopped to see the review and office personnel ventured out into the misty weather to view the impressive sight. This was the first review to be given on Oread Avenue in this war. All military reviews of both the Army and Navy have been given in the stadium or on the athletic field south of Lindley hall. Today was the first time that students, faculty members, and office workers have had the opportunity to witness one here on the campus. Transfer Effective This Week

Hike in Postal Rates Is Effective Sunday
Starting Sunday, March 26. increased postal rates will go into effect, announced R. C. Abraham, superintendent at the University post office.
Of particular interest to students on the campus will be the increase from two to three cents on all local mail, and the extension of domestic air mail rates from six to eight cents per ounce. Domestic air mail includes mail sent to any post office in the United States itself or Canada. Postage on overseas air mail will remain the same, six cents for every half ounce.
The cost of money orders will be almost doubled, according to Mr. Abraham, and book rates, C.O.D. parcel post, registered and insured mail fees will also be considerably higher.
No changes are to be made at this time on the regular three cent postal rates, in which classification the majority of campus mail falls.
Britain Not Consulted On Recognition
London, INS) — British Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden revealed today that his government was not consulted by Russia before the Soviet Union extended full recognition to the present Italian regime, a step which Britain does not intend to duplicate.
London, (INS) — Prime Minister Churchill declared today that the changing events of the war will make renewed consultations between Allied leaders necessary on the applications of the Atlantic Charter.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Gas Black Market Is Nationwide Cheat
Last week the OPA announced that gasoline allotments for holders of A-cards would be reduced to two gallons a week. In commenting on the cut, Price Administrator Bowles stated that the allowances would have been a fourth greater had not chiselers drained 2,500,000 gallons a day from the domestic supply or approximately three gallons a month from each motorist. The gasoline black market, represented by an uncontrolled supply and an excessive amount of coupons made by a large-scale growth of counterfeiting and robberies, has grown to the proportions of a nationwide cheat.
Cheat Hampers War Operations
Motorists patronizing black markets are robbing the war effort of its possibilities. With increased war activities, the demand for gasoline in battle areas and on the home front has grown. If motorists continue to draw illegally on the nation's reserve, production and military operations are likely to be hampered.
By finding a filling station attendant who will put more gasoline in the tank than the coupon calls for or by buying counterfeit coupons, the motorist strips the nation's gasoline pool. The decreased supply results in other people's being denied an increased amount of gasoline for each coupon. In a democratic country each person is entitled to his share, and any attempt to rob him of his share is an offense against society.
Unless this selfish and thoughtless minority is checked and demoralized business practices stopped, the war effort will continue to be hampered. Imposition of heavy penalties, including large fines and the confiscating of ration books, might solve the problem. Accompanying these measures should be a complete squelching of the prevalent attitude that it's "smart" to outwit the ration board and get a few extra gallons.—J.J.
Money Is the Least Civilians Can Give
As civilians living in an ivory tower far away from the realities of war, it is too easy for us to forget about the stark horrors we see in the Saturday night newsreels. We like to dismiss from our minds the tragedies which we know are occurring hourly.
It is true that there is not much sense in dwelling constantly on the brutalities of the war, but there is something practical which civilian students can do right now.

Things like this used to occur only on Monday morning, when men were in the department: After two women had fainted in the Shack, members of the Daily Kansan staff were ready for anything. It came Tuesday morning when Virginia Gunsolly, managing editor, roared around the corner from the news room and couldn't keep up with her feet. A resounding crash echoed throughout the building. Some, galvanized into action, reached out for the papers flying through the air while others stiffly sat and wondered if Gunsolly would come rolling out on the press downstairs. Investigation revealed the only thing injured was her . . . ah . . . pride.
on the top of some bushes several feet down, and Jim and Bud were to hold him. The two, from the confines of the second floor, thought the whole affair was excruciatingly funny, and kept loosening their grip until "The Squid" was literally hanging by his toes from the window ledge.
Noll or nothing at all: The navy almost lost a prospective member (Bob Noll), and Aldra Smith Whittenburger might have been without her better half (Bud Whittenburger) recently, when Jim Richey's coat went out the window. Willing to sacrifice, (here's to dear old Delta), Noll, known more intimately as "The Squid," volunteered to lean out of the second floor window on the Fiji side of the Sig Alph house and retrieve the coat. It was lying
Screaming mightily that all the blood was rushing to his head, he insisted that he would be smashed to a pulp if they didn't haul him back in. After Bud had almost lost his hold on "The Squid's" shoe string and followed suit, they decided their chapter was dwindling down fast enough, anyway, and they might as well haul him back in. By this time "The Squid" was true to his colors . . . purple.
G. I. knew that: "What's your name? Do you belong to a sorority? If so, which one," fired an ambitious naval air cadet at Ruth Stallard, AO Pi, at the Dine-A-Mite. She pacified him by saying sweetly that she was a member of the OPA sorority . . . just call her any time. He presumably tried. "OPA," muttered a disgruntled voice behind her in the show a week later. Same boy. A little wiser.

"The men seemed to enjoy the party very much," said Colonel Mc-Morris. "While the men all realize the seriousness of the combat duty they are about to enter, the morale of the group is unusually high. The unit will be a distinct asset to the division to which they have been assigned."

If you're forever getting out the needle and thread, here are some tips:
When a button comes off, sew it on well the first time. A slip-shod job just means you'll have to do it over again soon.
Make your next shirt an Arrow. Arrow buttons are attached with a patented stitch, which "anchors" them to a shirt.
Check your size—you may be wearing too small a shirt and therefore causing too great a strain on the buttons and seams. The Sanforized label in an Arrow shirt guarantees shrinkage no greater than 1%—no danger of an Arrow ever getting too small!

Utah Accepts NCAA Bid Arkansas Out
The National Collegiate Athletic Association Western playoff has found a team to take the place of the distaster - wrecked Arkansas University team. Utah University has accepted an offer to play at Kansas City this weekend.
The Westerners will play the Missouri Tigers Friday night at eight o'clock and Iowa State will meet Pepperdine of Los Angeles. The winners play Saturday night for the right to meet the Eastern division champion in New York for the national title March 28.
The Rocky Mountain team will come to Kansas City from New York, where it made a strong showing in being eliminated in the semifinals of the Madison Square Garden invitation tournament by barely losing to Kentucky, 38 to 46. The Utes are an all-civilian outfit and were one of the most popular teams at the New York tourney.
Assembling four teams for the tournament has been a hectic affair and it finally ended up with two teams from the Big Six, Missouri and Iowa State, and no representative of the Southwest Conference.
At first no Rocky Mountain team would compete and Iowa University declined to fill this spot, then accepted and then again declined. Both Oklahoma and Iowa State said they would not play at first, but the Iowans reconsidered.
Missouri was asked to fill the Rocky Mountain vacancy and accepted.
Arkansas completed the four in this set-up but a tragic automobile accident last Sunday killed one of the team's coaches and severely injured two players, forcing the Arkansans to withdraw. Utah is taking the Razorbacks' place.

ASTP's March to Train, Depart Before Dusk for New Assignment With Combat Group in Oklahoma
Leaving the University to receive orders for active duty, several hundred regular ASTP basic engineers, terms two and three, marched to the entraining point shortly before dusk last evening. Within a few minutes they boarded the special train of sleeping cars and departed for their new assignment with a combat division which is in training at a camp somewhere in Oklahoma.
Lt. Gordon Cole (Inf.) accompanied the troops as train commander. Lt. Cole telegraphed University military headquarters
this morning that "All ASTP trainees arrived at their destination safe and sound and on schedule."
(continued to page three)
Prof. A. W. Davidson of the chemistry department, the Rev. C. Fosberg Hughes of the Congregational church, Prof. Henry Shenk of the physical education department, and Prof. Harry Sisler of the chemistry department were elected to serve a three year term on the advisory board.
"All personnel and pertinent records have been delivered to their new organization," stated Lt. Col. Watson L. McMorris, commandant of the University ASTP unit.
Fourteen Get Awards
A representative of the University publicity department took a moving picture of the troops on their last march for the University's historical records. Thus is written the last chapter in the activities of this group of trainees at the University. The men entered training at the Lawrence ASTP unit on August 9, 1943.
Fifty in All Awarded Medals
Fourteen outstanding trainees were awarded good conduct medals for excellence in military efficiency and discipline, by Lt. Col. McMorris Tuesday morning in a special review. The following privates received the awards: G. E. Earl, G. A. Maruska, W. E. Tahlor, J. C. Ross, G. T. Johnson, Dan T. Baker, J. L. Graham, M. O. Herrera, P. A. Rumple, J. F. Kotlik, J. D. Laster, K. L. Rumple, Stanley Kruzka, and L. H. Jones
Fifty trainees have been awarded this medal for outstanding military proficiency since the AST program was-established at the University.
"All the men agree that their training period here was both instructive and enjoyable," said Lt. Col. McMorris. "The trainees have been extremely cooperative in their academic work and military activities. The officer's staff is reluctant to see such a fine group of men leave their command."
Buchele Elected YMCA President
Other officers elected were Wendell Nickell, College sophomore, vice-president and Jack Button, College sophomore, secretary.
Luther Buchele, College senior, was elected president of the YMCA members who voted Tuesday. Old Thornton McClanshan, former president.
Bixby Is Prosecutor Instead of Davis
Contrary to the report in the University Daily Kansan yesterday, Peggy Davis was not appointed prosecutor of the student court.
It was decided in the All-Student Council meeting Tuesday night that the president of the Council would have the right to appoint the prosecutor of the student court.
Doris Bixby, College junior, was appointed prosecutor of the student court by Peggy Davis.
Art Show Has Scheduled Party Talks for Opening
Registration, lectures, a noon lunchon, and a studio party in the evening are the main features tomorrow of the opening of the Art Conference being sponsored here by the extension division. All events are open to the public, according to Miss Marjorie Whitney, associate professor of design.
Registration will be held in the lobby of the Union building from 8:30 to 10 in the morning.
At 10 o'clock, Mrs. W. F. McNulty, research artist in crafts from Stockton, will talk on inkle weaving in room 5 of Spooner-Thayer. Miss Dessa J. Bush, instructor in design, has chosen design technique as theopic which she will discuss at the same time in room 2 of Spooner-Thayer. Also scheduled for 10 o'clock is a lecture by Bernard Fravier, instructor in design, in room 8 of Spooner-Thayer on sculpture.
Noon Luncheon Held in Union
Two out-of-town guests will have the floor at 11 a.m. Mrs. McNulty will discuss spinning on wool and linen spinning wheels, on the third floor of Spooner-Thayer. She is bringing her own spinning wheels for the occasion. At the same time Norman Eppink, head of the art department at Kansas State Teachers' College at Emporia, will present a lecture on the graphic processes in the making of a book, in room 2 of Spooner-Thayer.
A noon luncheon will be given by the Kansas State Art Teachers' Association in the University Club room of the Union building. Miss Lena Waltner, one of the judges for the high school art work, is in charge of this affair which will have as its central theme, "Art, a Vital

Zilch Lands At Ellis Isle Early Today
Eleanor A Zilch landed on Ellis Island early this morning and wired members of the University Daily Kansan Board that she will be in Lawrence as scheduled for the Zilch dinner on Wednesday, April 5.
"Hail, comrades of the press," read the telegram from the widely traveled wife of Elmer L. Zilch, patron saint of journalism. "Good to be back in sight of America! Arrive Lawrence April 5. Eleanor. P. S. I certainly hope Kansas isn't still dry."
Eleanor, who will be guest of honor at the dinner of the journalism department, scheduled to be held at the Colonial Tea Room, will speak to members of the faculty and their student clientele on the problems of newspaper work. It is hoped by members of the faculty that she will include in her speech a few helpful suggestions on distilling.
Elmer Zilch, who formerly was a guest at the journalism department's annual dinners, is still hanging upside down in a Japanese concentration camp, according to the latest I. P. dispatch.
From the Disunited Press comes word that, after being stopped on the Canary Islands, Eleanor had an uneventful trip to the United States. She is being held temporarily at Ellis Island, having at one time revoked her American citizenship papers to become a citizen of the Belgian Congo.
36,000 Air Trainees Return To Ground
She will be released immediately, however, according to the dispatch and allowed to enter the United States, probably late today or tomorrow.
Washington (INS)—Because of an unfilled quota of 100,000 through draft boards, 36,000 men in training for combat by airplane have been grounded. Lack of ground troops to service the planes made this move necessary, it was said.
The grounding of the flyers followed the transfer of a large number of men in specialized training at American colleges and universities which likewise was the result of a deficiency of draftees.
The army air forces also announced the suspension of enlistments of 17-year-olds in its enlisted reserve, reducing its reserve to immediate requirements. Air force applications still will be received from 17-year-olds and the training will not be stopped.
Dean J. Allen Reese, Prof. L. D. Havenhill, Prof. D. H. Spencer, and Prof. Roy A Bowers attended a victory conference of the Pharmacists of Kansas in the Hotel Jayhawk in Toneka yesterday.
Faculty Members Attend Pharmacists' Conference
Wednesday morning they were guests at a breakfast of the Sayre Club, an organization of the alumni of the School of Pharmacy.
The four faculty members returned to Lawrence last night; however, they plan to attend the second session of the conference today.
Seven Universities Will Compete At Forensics Meet Starting Tonight With Annual Banquet at The Hearth
Judkins' Orchestra To Play for 'Kapers'
The annual Missouri Valley Forensics Meet, for which the University of Kansas and Kansas State College are hosts, will get under way tonight with the annual banquet, held at the Hearth at 6:30. Dr. Howard T. Hill, head of the department of speech at Kansas State, will be toastmaster.
Howard Judkins and his twelve-piece orchestra will return to the campus April 1 to play for the all-University "Kansas Kapers," sponsored by the Independent Student Association, in the Union lounge, John Sells, ISA president, announced today.
University Graduates Appointed to Hospital
Howard Judkins
Lt. Col. Edward H. Hashinger; former unit director at the University of Kansas hospitals who has been overseas 18 months in North Africa and Sicily, has been appointed chief of the medical service of the army general hospital at Cleveland.
The first contested event of the annual oratorical contest, will follow the banquet in the Little theater of Green hall at 8:30. Contestants have been entered by all seven schools participating in the meet: South Dakota, Wichita, University of
The orchestra, well known from its regular appearance at the St. Joe "Frog Hop," was last at the University when it played for the over-flowing ISA dance of November 6, the first large dance of the winter season. At that time Alice Hoad, a former student at the University, was a guest soloist with the orchestra.
Col. Hashinger was graduated from the University in 1917 with a bachelor of arts degree. He headed the 77th evacuation hospital unit, composed largely of Kansas City doctors through the North African and Sicilian campaigns.
He will be assisted at his new post by Lt. Col. Mahlon H. Delp as assistant chief of medical service for the new hospital. Col. Delp is a graduate of the University of Kansas and a resident of Kansas City.
The new hospital, to be known as the Crife hospital, is designed to ac commodate 1.727 army sick and wounded personnel.
Three fire trucks raced to the astronomical observatory at 9 a.m. only to discover a small stream of black smoke coming from an over-heated voltage transformer.
Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma Texas, and Nebraska. Jane Lorimer, College senior, will represent the University.
Smoke Brings Firemen To Observatory Today
According to Prof. E. C. Buchler, chairman of the speech department at the University, all speakers and their subjects are not known at this time. The list so far includes Mavis Fry, South Dakota who will speak on "Youth—A Path to Peace"; Ann Allison, Kansas State, who will speak on "They're Coming Back"; Roy Graham, Oklahoma, whose subject has not been announced; Marvin Wise, Texas, who will speak on "A Thousand Dead Niggers"; and Jean Kinnie, Nebraska, who will speak on "Is This As It Should Be?" First nine in the contest is $25
First prize in the contest is $25 in cash, with second and third awards of $15 and $10.
The extemporaneous speaking section of the meet will be held at 4 o'clock Friday with the general theme "The American Political Scene." Each school is entitled to enter two contestants in this event. Each candidate will be allowed to draw three sub-topics an hour before the event is scheduled to start. Seven minutes will be allotted to each speaker. $35 cash prizes will be awarded to the three winners.
In the debate schedule, the first round of debates will be held at 9:30 Friday morning, the second at 10:30, the third Friday at 2:30 in the afternoon and the fourth Saturday morning at 9. The final round will be held Saturday morning at 10:30. The

When smoke filled one of the rooms of the observatory, firemen were called because it was believed the frame structure might be oe or fire. They soon discovered the overheated transformer, which supplies light for the low voltage telescope
It is believed that the transformer was accidently turned on by a night watchman. According to Prof. N. W. Storer, associate professor of astronomy, it is possible that the wrong switch could have been turned on by mistake, as a light switch and the transformer switch are located side by side.
There were no students in the building when the smoke filled the observatory.
The only damage resulting was that done to the transformer,

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
'GI Bill of Rights Would Give Veterans Money for Education
To those college men who were drafted in the middle of their school year the most important item in the "GI Bill of Rights" measure introduced by Senator Bennet C. Clark of Missouri in the Senate last week is the education benefit which would allow them to finish their schooling at the government's expense.
A compilation of many measures presented recently, the bill provides for hospitalization, loans for homes, farms and businesses, employment service and unemployment benefits as well as education and vocational training for war veterans. Because almost all senators already have endorsed it, it is predicted the bill will be passed by the Senate.
In the provision for education, war veterans would, as full time students, be allowed $500 a year for tuition and an allotment of $50 a month for subsistence. An additional $25 a month would be added for each dependent. Under the bill, the education would begin not later than two years after the veteran's discharge or the war's end.
At least one year of school—anything from elementary to college—at government expense would be granted the veteran and three additional years added, if he completed the first year "satisfactorily." Eligible for the veteran's aid are those men and women who have served in active military or naval service after Sept. 16, 1940, and before the war's end and were discharged honorably after six months duty.
Servicemen overseas will probably be glad to know that the American people realize they owe them a debt, which this Congressional action will partially repay.
Negro Youth Council Chooses Committees
Selection of a committee with Opaline Mayes, College junior, as chairman to investigate projects to be undertaken in the spring program of the Youth Council of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was made last night, Irving Burton, president, announced today.

Assisting Mr. Littlejohn on the membership committee are Barbara Burton, Fine Arts, freshman; William H. Johnson, Octavia Walker, Lionel Adams, and Dorothy Singleleton, College freshmen; and Wanda Collins, Fine Arts sophomore.
Other committees were also announced. With Myrtle Gross, College freshman, as chairman, members of the publicity committee include Addie Egbert, graduate student; Carolyn Kerford, College freshman; Willa Maude Robinson, College freshman; William R. Johnson, Engineerert freshman; and Elizabeth Smith, College freshman.
The finance committee includes Mr. Littlejohn, chairman; Mr. Burton, Business junior; and Grace Curry, Business senior. Barbara Taylor, graduate student; and Gwendolyn McAfee, aeronautical student, are the members of the entertainment committee. Appointed to the education committee were June Mack, chairman; Nadyne Brewer, and Irvin Elliott.

Bank on the Bankers: K. W.

Warren promptly locked his door—and for three days, no one could tell whether he was abiding by the decision of the fraternity or not.

Signs of the outdoor track season are evident everywhere. Schools all over the country are preparing for the spring meets. One of the first big meets will be this Saturday at Ft. Worth where the annual Southwest Exposition will take place. On April 1, one of the biggest track get-together in the country, the Texas Relays, will be held at Austin. Representatives from colleges and universities all over the western part of the United States compete for honors in the annual affair.

The Oklahoma Aggies were beaten in the semi-finals of the National Invitational tournament at New York in the Madison Square Garden. They were beaten by DePaul, favorites to cop the tourney. Kentucky was also beaten by the St John's team. The battle of the giants, Kurland of the Aggies and Mikan of DePaul, was mostly on even terms, both getting nine points the first half but Mikan fouled out early in the second half and Kurland left the floor with about a minute left to go. The final score was 41 to 38.

Every team in the big leagues has been hit by player shortages, but the St. Louis Cardinals seem to have suffered the least and are carrying on spring practice with 18 men, more than any other major league club. No player on the Cards' roster has had less than AA
league experience. So with the farm system owned by the Redbirds it now looks as if they had the inside track to the National league pennant.

The Ft. Leavenworth Fliers were beaten in the A. A. U. tournament at Denver the other night by the Logan, Utah, Collegians, 42 to 46. Strength of the Fliers, in comparison with the other teams may be observed by watching how the Collegians progress in the tourney.

Hambro to Give Speech in May
In compliance with a directive received from the Norwegian government, C. J. Hambro, noted Norwegian statesman, has returned to London and will be unable to speak here next Wednesday, Chancellor Deane W. Malott said today.
Mr. Hambro, who holds the position of chairman of the supervisory committee of the League of Nations for the duration of the war, was to have discussed methods of "Winning the Peace" here. March 29, but he has been called to London to confer with British officials on diplomatic affairs. He is now expected to fill his lecture engagement at the University sometime in May, according to Chancellor Malott.
Jayhawker Presents University Life; Army, Navy, Civilian
The large picture of Ann Boltz, Fine Arts junior, walking down the campus with V-12 Bob Elbel and ASTP George Bushnell which appears on the cover of the new Jayhawker seems to typify the entire issue of the magazine which came out on the campus this week. Army, Navy, and civilian factions on the campus are all portrayed in this second part of the University annual.
The most widely commented upon feature in the entire magazine is the innovation of candidis on the sorority, and fraternity pages. Already student approval of this feature has practically insured its place in the Jayhawker of years to come.
Sue Digg's story on Homecoming recalls all the thrills of that memorable week-end to the student's mind. Bob Bock reviews the football season and makes a running start on the basketball season, which was not yet complete when the magazine went to the printers.
Heading the writers whose works appears in the magazine is David Battenfeld, author of a thoughtful editorial on the four freedoms.
The excellent candid photography in the magazine is the work of photographers Don Crawford. Chas. Fisher, Jason Dixon, and Les Wagner.
Other stories which are wellworth reading include V-12 Jerry Widgen's tribute to the non-coms, Pat Penny's explanation of the Board of Regents and Virginia Gunsolly's clever report of the social season.

Exhibits Fill Union Lounge For Art Meeting
Three hundred and fifty art exhibits of all types and descriptions are decorating the lounge of the Union building for the annual Art Conference and Exhibit which opened here this morning. Approximately thirty-five schools from over the state are to be represented in the two-day conference.
Arranged in snake-like fashion through the lounge, pictures of all kinds drawn by young artists of junior and senior high school age are mounted and displayed.

Red Cross Drive Needs $200 to Reach Goal Set by CVC at $1,000
The University students are still $200 short of the Red Cross goal of $1.000.
With a present total of $810.87,
several organizations have not yet sent in their contributions, announced Miss Marie Miller, co-ordinator of the civilian Red Cross drive.
The Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority has contributed the largest amount per capita, about $1.50, with a total of $77.48.
"We owe a great deal of appreciation and gratitude to the members of the CVC who have followed through on the drive," said Miss Miller. "Those who have contributed have responded generously, and we expect to make the goal from the contributions from the men's houses. Students should make their individual contributions in my office or to the CVC members."
Sixteen houses have sent in their contributions this week. Individual contributions in the last two days have amounted to $8, and Wanda Jean Collins, Fine Arts sophomore, made a canvass of the Negro women on the campus collecting $11.23.
The additional houses which have sent in their contributions are Alpha Chi Omega, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Sigma Kappa, Sigma Chi, Battenfeld hall, Carruth hall, Foster hall, Miller hall, Watkins hall, 707 West 12th street, 1216 Louisiana, 1232 Louisiana, 1244 Louisiana, 1230 Tennessee, 1247 Kentucky, and 1245 Louisiana.
Booths, Dancing To Be Featured In Hoch Carnival
Mr. Stringer has been a big success with the servicemen at the USO in Kansas City and has been requested to tour the country for the USO this summer, playing at the different centers throughout the United States.
The Union Activities committee, working in co-operation with the YWCA, will hold a carnival from 8:30 to 12 p.m. Saturday in Hoch auditorium to raise funds for the student scholarship and post war funds. The carnival will feature booths around the outside of the auditorium, and dancing to the music of Dean Stringer, and his Deans of Music from Kansas City.
All the organized houses have been asked to set up booths for the carnival. Wallace Grimes will be in charge of these booths. There will be penny-pitching, fortune-telling, and ball-throwing at milk bottles. The whole idea will be very much like the Pumpkin Pron of last year.
Surprises Are in Store
"Some of the houses have been very secretive about their booths," announced Eugenia Hepworth, social chairman of the Union Activities committee, "so there are some surprises for those attending."
The carnival is to be a sweater and skirt affair. It has been announced that students can attend stag or drag. Girls are welcome to attend stag. Those who are working in the booths will be admitted free.
Persons in charge of the booths may begin setting them up at 8:30 a.m. tomorrow. They must be taken down by 9 a.m. Sunday. All the women's organized houses and most of the fraternities have turned in ideas for booths. Those who have not done so should turn in their ideas to Mary Nettles immediately. Students Work on Carnival
On the Union Activities committee are:
Jane Atwood, freshman, chair-
man; Eugenia Hepworth, sophomore;
Anne Zimmerman, junior; Helen

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Students Have Lost Pep and Enthusiasm Of Former KU Days
Departure of the greater part of the ASTP unit will not affect this University as much as others. University life goes on as usual. These phrases are familiar, but not completely true.
Activities are being planned, class schedules are much as usual, but the pop and enthusiasm of the entire student body are lacking. The caption under the Jayhawker picture of the rally last fall, "Only a Homecoming Rally could get out this many people at K.U." connotes the truth of the situation.
Students Are More Serious Now
The speed-up of the regular semester from 18 weeks to a 16-week term is only part of the reason for the emphasis on business and the lessening of frivolity. The effect of the war has been much deeper than that. Many students are more serious about attending school this year. Some are carrying heavier schedules, others are planning to continue through the year, to achieve earlier graduation. Nearly all are taking courses with the purpose of obtaining a future job.
More Time to Letter Writing
Many women have returned to school after marriage. Social life is not as important to these women, and furloughs and leaves often disrupt their schedules. The all-important letters to husbands, fiances, or sweethearts add to the day's requirements. Classes without men or with few men tend to increase attention to the lesson.
Comparison of civilian life with the sacrifices of those in the armed services is another boost to the business-like atmosphere. With the armed forces as an example, college students are pitching in with more zest.
The University has become warmed, although plans and schedules have remained much the same. The old "college spirit" of goldfish swallowing and steak fries has passed. Instead, students are concentrating on the serious side, with fewer extra-curricular activities and less nonsense.-R.T.
Prof. Lynn Will Speak To English Majors
Prof. Margaret Lynn of the English department will speak on "Blue Stockings, and After" at a meeting of English majors to be held at 3:30 p.m. on Thursday, March 30, in room 205 of Fraser hall.
Immediately following the lecture a tea for English majors will be served in room 213 of Fraser hall. Mrs. John E. Hankins will be in charge of the tea.
The lecture is open to the public.
Rock Chalk Talk
BY MARY
MORRILL
Only thing missing are the squeals: After several women fainted in his class—last of whom was Wilma Thiele, College senior, Prof. Elmer F. Beth, of the department of journalism, is beginning to wonder—is he a second swooner-rooner like Sinatra or what!
The "or what" explanation is pre-
ferred by women students who tell
the professor that his assignments
causing them to remark "I Couldn't
Sleep a Wink Last Night," rather than his vocal rendition of the hit
parade favorite—are what get them.
Who brought the chickens in? Jack Glesch wanted to borrow Dean Huebert's car for a date with Jeanne Atkinson.
"Well, all right," Dean finally said. "But it doesn't have much gas in it. If you want to park, you'll just have to go a couple of blocks west of the Chi Omega house."
"Oh, we wouldn't think of parking." said Giesch.
Much later Huebert, past president of Phi Delt, received a telephone call. It was Giesch, three miles out in the country. When the parking angle was mentioned, Jack explained weakly, he had gone to the country for some chickens the Chi O's needed for a big dinner.—Well, yes, Jeanne had gone with him.
The thief gets stung: Mary (Stainless) Steele of Miller hall has felt neglected ever since the big story about the Miller theft came out listing the personal property lost by each girl, but omitting the half package of Kools which the thief picked up on her desk.
Washington, (INS)—Marriner Eccles, governor of the Federal Reserve Board asked Congress today to extend price control for a period of two years after the war as a guarantee against inflation. He appeared before the Senate Banking Committee.
With the close of the spring term still over three months away, students are tending to think of summer plans. Catching the anticipation of vacation days ahead, the German department is now featuring on its departmental bulletin board in Fraser hall a display on the hosteling program in this country.
The episode ends with R. J. Atkinson, Phi Psi, driving out after his sister, and Phi Delt Giesch limping in, very much the pedestrian, all three miles of the way.
Also on display now is a collection of pictures showing Goslar, former residence of German emperors in the Harz mountains, and featuring the legend of Frederick Barbarossa.
Displays Are Vacation Suggestions
Transplanted to America from Germany, hostelling here was launched with the establishment of the first Youth Hostel in Northfield, Mass. With the spread of the program over America, there have been established Youth Hostel centers in the Great Lakes area, New England, the Appalachian mountains, the Ozarks, the Rocky mountains, Washington, California, and the Smoky mountains.
Would Extend Price Control
Someone suggested that her loss might have been an inside job. But Mary says no. She's the only one in Miller who will smoke Kools—and, knowing that the package was almost a month old, she hadn't picked it up for days.
John Porter to Talk In Fraser Thursday
Commander John Porter, who received a degree from the College in 1921, will speak here at 4:30 p.m. Thursday in Fraser Theater on "Medical Practices in the Armed Services," Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, announced today.
For the past two years, Commander Porter, who received his M.D. degree from Harvard in 1926, has served in the navy medical corps. A great part of this time was spent at sea, but for the past few months he has been stationed in the Southwest Pacific area.
Jean and Dick Porter, children of the naval officer are students here this year. His wife was enrolled in the College last year.
Although intended primarily for medical and pre-medical students, the lecture is open to the public.
Miss Mabel Elliott, associate professor of sociology, is the author of an article entitled "Crime and the Frontier Mores" which will appear in the April issue of the American Sociological Review. Miss Elliott gave a talk on this subject at the meeting of the American Sociological Society in New York City last December.

Workers' Ideas Save Money
Workers' Ideas Save Money Suggestions from war workers have brought an estimated saving of $6,809.343 to the war department, according to the latest tablued results of the "Ideas for Victory" program.
Steak Fries Are Still In Vogue
The genuine steak fry started a fade-out about the time that Hiram Walker went out and OPA management came in. With the advent of spring, students are now merely thinking in terms of "fries."
Essential ingredients are still present, although such things at catsup, weiners, cheese, and marshmallows belong to the "do you remember when" days.
Faced with these difficulties last spring, the situation was endured somewhat as follows:
The Beta freshmen sacrificed steaks for fried chicken and spent the evening at Brown's grove playing jacks and singing songs. The Delts, too, ate chicken, but an amusing diversion was blowing foam off the top of their glasses.
By fair means or foul, the Phi Gams came across with meat, living up to their "do or die" policy.
The Phi Psis found the seclusion o the chapter house to their liking while the Phi Bete and Nu Sig medical fraternities traditionally scorned women and drowned their sorrows and everything else by themselves.
The Phi Delts, long noted for their spring "fries," have always been able to struggle along on beer, potato chips, cokes and blankets, on the theory, "why camouflage your real intent?"
The battle cry, "Lets go on a fry," is ringing again. Gas rationing limits the distance, but as long as men still like their wine, women and song, i will be a popular past time.

To Check Out Equipment for Grid Practice
Varsity football candidates will check out equipment today and tomorrow in preparation for spring practice, announced Head Coach Henry Shenk today.
Practice will begin at 4:30 Monday afternoon in the stadium. Sessions will be held five days a week, for a month. Just how many men will report is not known by Coach Shenk, although he is expecting quite a few. There are over a dozen lettermen on the campus, who with the addition of new trainees, should make a squad of about forty. However, some grid prospects as well as lettermen are out for track and will not report for spring practice. A list of candidates reporting will be released next week.
A rugged schedule for next fall is planned, said the coach, consisting of about 10 games. Besides the regular Big Six contests, Denver University has been added and probably Washburn will be played also. Tentative plans are being made for a game with Texas Christian University, to be played in Kansas City, plus two more games with opponents yet undetermined.

With no more unforeseen happenings or any major catastrophes the NCAA tournament will get underway tonight at Kansas City's Municipal Auditorium, Iowa State plays Pepperdine in the main game and Missouri meets Utah in the evening's opener. This year has been a hectic one for the NCAA officials in trying to get four teams to meet for the Western division championship. Owing to stubborn persistence the tourney will go on as scheduled
It will be interesting how the Big Six teams make out against outside competition in tournament play. Iowa State is favored over the Los Angeles school and the Tigers are expected to go down before Utah, upsets, however, occur often in tournaments so the games are expected to be very entertaining. Fans will doubtless have difficulty spotting the players with three pairs of twins performing.

The basketball rules may be in for some changes in the next few days, with between 60 and 70 coaches, representing the National Association of Basketball Coaches and the National Basketball Rules Committee meeting in New York. The problem foremost on the minds of the coaches is the one concerning goal tenders, the lads who have the height and ability to stop many, a shot headed for the net. What will come out of the meetings is hard to tell, but it is almost certain that action will be suggested or taken. Even then, if something is done to stop the tall man, it will take a while to determine whether the new change is the correct solution or not.

The State high school basketball tournament is on at Topeka this weekend. It began last night with the class AA schools playing and the class A and B teams play tonight in four games. The finals in the three divisions will be Saturday. Newton and Shawnee-Mission, defending state champs, are the finalists in class AA winning over Wyandotte and Salina, respectively, last night. Some fine cage prospects for college play are appearing in the tourney and no doubt are being looked over by surrounding coaches.
Quack Club Will Not Meet While Pool Is Unavailable
Meetings of the Quack Club, women's swimming organization, have been discontinued because civilian students cannot use the pool at the present time. However, Miss Ruth Hoover, club sponsor, believes that the pool may be opened to civilians later. "If this is done, the Quack club will continue its meetings," she said.
It is estimated there are 5,000 billion tons of salt under-lying Kansas.

After the special business meeting of the Mammalologists Society, of which he is one of the directors, Dr. Hibbard plans to return by Cleveland, Ohio, where he will finish some work with Dr. David Dinkle at the Museum of Natural History. Together they have been doing this work on Kansas fishes for the past five years. Dr. Dinkle received his A.B. degree from the University in 1935 and later his Ph.D. degree from Harvard.
At the Field Museum in Chicago, Ill., Dr. Hibbard will study rodent material to finish some work which he is now doing on the fossil horned rodent. Few of these specimens are known in North America.
With Dr. Carl Hubbs, curator of fishes at the University of Michigan, Dr. Hibbard will study fossil fish, and then go to the American Museum in New York City where he will work for three or four days. Here he will compare the fossil horned rodent specimens with Cope's types of Pleistocene rodents.

Statewide Activities Chairmen Will Meet
Because it was found that not all county chairmen had turned in the lists of appointed correspondents, the Statewide Student Activities Commission decided at a meeting this week to have a large assembly for all county chairmen and correspondents Tuesday, March 28 at 7:15 p.m., however the place of meeting was not selected.
Cards will be sent to all county chairmen reminding them that their lists of appointed correspondents, or home-town news writers, must be turned in to the Alumni office by March 24. Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni Association, which is the headquarters of the Commission, said that a list of students of the counties and the names of the newspapers in each town is available in the alumni office for those county chairmen who wish to use it.
Margaret O5Brian has been selected to replace Sarepta Pierport Ostrum as the chairman in charge of a group of southeast Kansas counties. Replacing John Sells, Sophomore, who has left for the army, is Mignon Morton, junior in the School of Business, who will take charge of a group of northeast Kansas counties.

Bricks to Close Temporarily
With the auctioning of the fixtures of Brick's tomorrow and its temporary closing, one of the most popular eating establishments on Mt. Oread will end a phase in its life. As a place to "get-together" for students it will be missed by many who can remember many good times and many social events that were planned and talked over in the booths of Brick's.
Bricken, before purchasing the cafe that up to this time has still borne his name, was a head waiter at Lee's, another popular eating house. He owned and operated Brick's for nine years and then sold it. So popular had the name Brick's become that the name was never changed although owners have changed several times. The present owner is Mr. James Taylor, who also owns and operates the Cottage on Eleventh street.
Brick's, located just off the campus on Oread avenue, has for many years been a popular meeting place for KU students. Originally the Oread Cafe, it was bought by E. C. Bricken in the spring of 1914 and soon became known as Brick's Place a name that was soon shortened to Brick's.
Auctioning of the fixtures will be tomorrow, Mr. Taylor stated. He also said that Brick's would be reopened next September providing conditions at that time will permit. Rationing and other restrictions make it difficult to operate an eating place now, he said.
'Katia' Will Be Next Forums Board Picture
"Katin", a French film with English titles, will be shown at 7:30 Thursday evening in Fraser theater by the Student Forums Board, Joy Miller, has announced.
The film, according to Miss Miller has been very successful in Europe and should prove especially interesting to students who have never attended a movie in which the dialogue was spoken in a foreign language.
No admission will be charged. Miss Miller announced.
Red Cross Drive Still Short $175

Russians Reach Prut; Allies Bomb Essen
national News Service)
Allied planes, were crossing the English Channel in a new non-stop daylight offensive today, and the air ministry announced that 2800 tons of bombs were dropped last night on Essen. The war production center of Hanover and the rail junction of Courtrai in Belgium also were attacked by British night bombers.
Soviet shells dropped today, and with the picture of a vast new Russian offensive designed to encircle the entire Balkans, with the Prut river reached and Russian spearheads already dashing across it there were indications the Soviet may seal the fate of Germany's eastern defenses even before the great Anglo-American land blows, promised anew by Prime Minister Winston Churchill yesterday.
On the Cassino front Allied artillery uncorked a devastating new barrage against strong points inside the city. Less encouraging news came from the new Burma-India front where Japanese forces opened a new drive on Kohima, 60 miles from the main Manipur highway.

Party Ends Art Exhibit; 200 Attend
Flickering candlelight, the strains of music, the soft murmuring of fortune tellers in their booths furnished the continental background of the studio party which 220 guests at the Art Conference and Exhibit attended Friday night at Spooner-Thayer museum.
Tables covered with bright print cloths and decorated with candles in colorful holders and various shades of paper containers full of breadsticks lined the halls and filled several rooms. Straw creations made with rye straws and colored yarns were the favors.
(continued to page four)
The lifting music of the piano accordian, played by Betty Jean Tiger from Haskell Institute, as she passed from room to room, and the strains of "Night and Day" and "Lover, Come Back to Me" by the women's quartet (Ruth Russell, Elaine Talley, Suzanne Schmidt, and Betty Dell Mills) added to the atmosphere, as did the light notes of Julia Van Deventer's flute.
Intermingling among the guests were five artists who sketched anyone who wanted to pose. The artists,
Triangles Won Prize For Clever Booth At Carnival
The Triangles, with their booth decorated with electric light bulbs and ingenious scheme of dumping water as the target prize, won first place for their booth at the carnival Saturday night.
Each player who hit the target released the spring by which a bucket of water was dumped on a waiting Triangle. The judging was based on the idea and the effectiveness of the idea. All the organized houses were asked to set up booths and participate in the contest.
Approximately 600 persons danced to the music of Dean Stringer and visited the various booths of penny pitching, fortune-telling, and side show attractions.
The report of the amount of money raised for the student scholarship and post-war fund has not yet been completed by the Union Activities committee and the YWCA.

Center Will Be Set Up to Guide Give Counsel
The University is setting up a new vocational guidance and counseling center and curriculum, it was announced today by Chancellor Deane W. Malott. The new center is designed to meet one of the great needs of the post-war period.
This new service to the state will have a three-fold purpose. It will serve as a center of counseling and advice for students and for returning members of the armed forces and others. Built around this new center will also be two new four-year major fields of study, consisting of Educational Guidance, and Industrial Personnel Administration. The major in Educational Guidance will be under the administration of the School of Education. The major in Industrial Personnel Administration will be under the administration of the School of Business.
Prof. A. H. Turney, professor of Education, will supervise the office of Vocational Guidance which will have charge of giving modern scientific aptitude tests, and of giving vocational advice on the basis of the results of the tests. A third function of the office will be to keep up-to-date surveys of job opportunities and needs in the Kansas area, and to help connect potential job-holders with employers in business and industry.
The new program will also include a special short course, an Institute on Guidance, developed to meet the needs both of teachers and administrators in education, and of personnel executives in business. This institute will be established the last two weeks in June.

Letter to the Editor
Out of the six contestants in the Missouri Valley Oratorical Contest held here last week, four spoke concerning the maladjustments of race relations in the United States. This would indicate that American youth considers these problems as being among the gravest this country has to face. The winners of the first and second prizes both spoke on the Negro-White relations. The winner of the first prize was a Texan.
The winning speeches brought out the points that the Negro problem cannot be solved by denying its existence; it is absurd to deny Negros the opportunity to participate whole-heartedly and to their full capacity in the war effort; it is absurd to ask Negro soldiers to fight and die for democracy and at the same time deny them civil liberties and other privileges of American citizenship; and more and bigger race riots may be expected after the war unless extensive favorable changes in race relations take place now.
Kansas University, while training soldiers and sailors to fight for democracy and the four freedoms, persists in violating the principles of democracy and freedom. Kansas University is doing a good job of practicing what Hitler preaches. K.U. will not allow Negro girls to take swimming. K.U. discriminates against Negroes in the home economics department, in practice

Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
Lots of people who have been wondering about the "$" are satisfied now! It isn't just a straight-laced junior WCTU with a special branch for men—it couldn't be and sponsor a carnival like the carnival Saturday.
***
One of the first attractions on the midway in Hoch was the tent of The Co-op Queenie. Inside, a very muscular gentleman dressed in feminine effects divested himself of encumbering garments all evening for a price. By way of props he used a glass of beer (different glass each performance) and a cigarette. The part of Queenie was played by Luther Buchele who would have been a very convincing lady if he hadn't kept winking so hungrily at the girls on the front row. Luther is the new president of the YMCA
Another mid-way attraction which started out on the up and up but soon developed was the Alpha Omicron Pi sleeping beauty tent. Marilyn Voth, the sleeping beauty, was supposed to be dead to the world within and (again for a price) her sisters were letting men kiss her. The rules of the game restricted all kisses to the forehead.
Wally Grimes, Sigma Chi president of the Inter-Fraternity Council, forged ahead once however, when no one was looking and kissed Marilyn on the mouth in the manner to which he has accustomed Hill women. For the first time in history, the technique failed. Marilyn didn't flutter an eyelash.

The Delts advertised that they were displaying the body of John Wilkes Booth, and inside their tent was, indeed, a man resting comfortably in a coffin. During the first part of the evening this man looked a great deal like Paul Hurrel and
during the last part he resembled Bob Jelinek—but other than that the stunt was very real. Said Jelinek later, it was an easy way to spend an evening and he had only one bad moment—when the lecturer told people he had J. W. B. branded on his left hip and some "doubting Thomas" female in the audience insisted on seeing it.
...
The Corbin Hall fortune teller told Leland (Finger) Bowl that he would have a great number of children. The Beta was relieved to learn a few seconds later from the same source that he would be married twice.

Two ducks quacked around the Kappa living room Saturday night shortly before closing hours spreading feathers, etcetera. Mary Louise Samson, pledge, the only person to ring the same duck in the Sigma Chi pond twice all evening had won the female of the pair. And at the end of the evening when the male was auctioned off, her date, Lee Siebert saw to it that the two were not separated. When Mary Lou's roomate refused to be a party to any duck housing project, Lee took the pets over to the Sig Alph house, where it is assumed duck was served for Sunday dinner.

Utah Meets Dartmouth In NCAA Final
The championship game of the National Collegiate Athletic Association will be played tomorrow night between Utah, winner of the western division play-off, and Dartmouth, eastern division representatives. The winner will play St. Johns, champion of the national invitational tournament in New York City, who won over De Paul 47-39 in an upset Saturday night.
Utah earned the right to represent the western division after losing out in the invitational tuorney, and then accepted a bid to play in the NCAA at Kansas City this past weekend. Utah beat Missouri in the opening game Friday night 45 to 35. Iowa State, co-champions of the Big Six, defeated George Pepperdine College 44 to 39.
In the consolation game Saturday night, Missouri scored consistently to beat Pepperdine 61 to 46, and Iowa State went down before the Utes 31 to 40, in an even closer score than the score would indicate.
The Dartmouth Redskins advanced to the front in the East by whipping the Big Ten's representative. Ohio State, 60 to 53.

Symbols of the horoscope, hands and hearts decorated three tall booths where long lines of curious guests waited to have their future revealed by Madame Zerela (Mrs. Don Carlos), Caterina Fruin Croce, and Sadie Ann Galle.
Finding time between posing for sketches and having fortunes told, many of the guests observed the exhibit cases displaying the artistic productions of occupational therapy wicker-work, furniture, handiwork, wood carving jewelry, and handmade book covers.
The adventures of Douglas Fairbanks in the 1942 movie production of "The Thief of Bagdada" was the concluding event of the party.
Budget Meetings Resumed After a Week's Omission
The annual spring budget meetings are being resumed this afternoon after a week's vacation, said Raymond Nichols, executive secretary. They were temporarily called off last week as Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, was out of town.
The chancellor of the University and the deans of the various schools meet each year to plan the budget for both the summer sessions and the regular fall term.
Sportorials By Charles Moffett
At the NCAA tournament in Kansas City Friday and Saturday, Big Six basketball did not have to apologize to anyone for the showing made by the two conference teams entered. Utah, after making a fine showing in the East, beat Iowa State, co-champions of the Big Six, in a good game. Missouri after losing to the same Utah quintet, displayed a tremendous burst of scoring power in their consolation game with Pepperdine College. Pepperdine beat some of the West Coast's best teams during the season, so we're inclined to believe that western basketball wasn't on a par with that of former years. Certainly Big Six basketball was not on the same level this year. But a team that tied for third place in its conference and beats one of the Coast's best surely adds prestige to the war-time play of the Big Six.
If Utah goes good in the East again we'll be convinced, by virtue of the play of Iowa State against them, that the Big Six was comparable to most of the leagues over the country the past season.
The National Association of College Basketball Coaches has recommended that each player be permitted five personal fouls. The basis for this recommendation is made upon the observation that with the abolishment of the center jump, several minutes of playing time had been added to each game, but the number of fouls remained at four. If players are allowed five fouls, it seems the game will become a great deal rougher, with less skill and finesse, and more power of strength added. Many more fouls will be called and the job of the official, trying to keep the game in hand, will be much more difficult. There may be more time now in the present game, but with the four foul rule there is better playing and less rough-house tactics than there would be with five fouls allowed.

The state high school basketball tournaments are over and the champions in each division have been crowned. Shawnee-Mission retained their class AA title by scoring a big upset over the powerful Newton Railroaders. Winner of the class A division was Hays, who beat Olathe in the finals. The only undefeated team in the state, Halstead, took the class B championship, winning from Clearwater. The Halstead Dragons won 25 straight games during the season. Mankato, in class B, was undefeated until Clearwater beat them in the first night's play at Topeka.
Some claim that the radio is not, as supposed, an equipment of the modern age. It really dates back to the time when Adam contributed a rib to form Eve, thereby inventing the first loud speaker.

Many of the students had saved all year to be able to attend this annual event, according to Miss Whitney. The group from Ft. Scott started last September to save funds toward paying the expenses of the trip.
One of the most popular events of the two day program was the sculpture demonstration given by Bernard Frazier, instructor in design. Over one hundred persons attended the demonstration, presented both Friday and Saturday.

at a public meeting to be sponsored by the Sateve Club at 8:30 Saturday evening at the Unifarian church. This meeting with a question and discussion period follows a banquet to be held at 7 that evening at the church for college-age young people.
The Rev. Mr. Hilton is the executive secretary of the Western Unitarian conference and the regional director of the American Unitarian Association. He has served as Illinois representative of the American Civil Liberties Union and national vice-president of the Unitarian Fellowship for Social Justice which helped to counter-act Father Coughlin's anti-Semitic broadcasts several years ago.

The University's facilities will, so far as possible, be available to all who seek it regardless of whether or not they are
All students are invited to attend the banquet and are urged to make their reservations before Friday noon, according to Dr. Homer A. Jack Tickets may be obtained from Irving Burton, Addie Egbert, Myrtle Gross, Carolyn Kerford, Florence Helmke, Dr. Jack, and John Scurlock.

Continue to Take Senior Pictures
Senior pictures for the spring issue of the Jayhawker magazine will be taken again this week on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, Virginia Schaefer, Jayhawker business manager, has announced.
Seniors who have not had their pictures made may make appointments by calling the Jayhawker office at K.U. 32 or by calling Pat Williams or Miss Schaefer at 415.
The two additional evenings for pictures have been scheduled, Miss Schaefer said, because it was impossible to photograph all the seniors in the two nights scheduled last week. According to the present plan, however, this week will be the last that pictures will be taken.
According to Miss Schaefer no pictures will be accepted for the senior pages in the magazine unless they have been made by Mr. Hammerli.
Pictures will be taken again in the Jayhawker office in the sub-basement of the Memorial Union building. They will be taken by H. E. Hammerli of the Christopher studios in Topeka.

Russians Near Balkan Gateway; New Jap Thrusts
(International News Service)
Russian troops today were almost at the threshold of Cernauti, the third largest city of Rumania and gateway to the Balkans and northern terminus of the royal Rumanian state railway line leading southward to the Ploesti oil fields and to Bucharest.
Meanwhile, savage street fighting raged in the streets of Nikolayev after Russian troops blasted their way into the city despite strong enemy resistance.
Other Russian forces were only 12 miles from Gassy, holding a 51 mile stretch on the east bank of the Prut river presumably poised for a leap into old Rumania itself.
Formations of Allied bombers and fighters streaked out across the English Channel in new daylight raids against the Continent, and the German controlled Luxembourg radio went off the air.
Allied bombers based in the Mediterranean carried out 1400 new attacks in support of ground troops at the deadlock Cassino and Anzio beachhead battlefronts, featured by widespread assaults against railway yards, warehouses, and factories in the Rome area.
On the Asiatic front Japanese troops thrust a new invasion column toward the Indian communication center of Kohima.
War Casualties
The war department announced today the names of 498 soldiers wounded in action. The list included five Kansans. They were:
Asiatic area
Sgt. Roy Tuttle, 717 Bokey St., Kansas City.
Mediterranean Area
Mediterranean Area
Sgt. Donald G. Detwiler, 845 East 7th St. Ottawa; Pca. Shelby E. Krouse, 1128 Scott, Kansas City; 2nd Lt. Filbert Munoz, 730 Pacific Ave., Kansas City; and Pfc. George C. Wilken, Lakin.
San Francisco Fire Claims Many Lives
San Francisco, (INS)-Fire which claimed 24 lives and injured 29 persons as it destroyed a small San Francisco hotel early today was described as "undoubtedly of incendiary origin" by fire chief Albert J. Sullivan. Racing through the 3-story hotel, with lightning speed the flames trapped many in their beds. Others were forced to jump from their windows as firemen spread rescue nets.
Three Professors Attended Petroleum Engineers Meeting
Recent maps and publications of ecological methods were exhibited at the annual meeting of the American Association of Petroleum Engineers last week under the sponsorship of the University geological survey department. Prof. J. C. Frye and Prof. M. L. Thompson, of the survey staff, and Prof. L. R. Laudon, of the geology department, returned Saturday after attending the convention in Dallas as University representatives.
Former Students Get Commissions in Navy
Ensign Turner, whose home is in Kansas City, was enrolled in the School of Education from 1940 to 1943. Ensign Fitzgerald received his bachelor of arts degree as a journalism major in 1939.
Swarthout Is NASM President
D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, was elected president of the National Association of Schools of Music at a joint convention last week in Cincinnati of the Music Teachers' National Association and the National Association of Schools of Music. Dean Swarthout returned today.
Resigning after 21 years as secretary and president of the MTNA, Dean Swarthout will succeed Howard Hanson, director of the Eastman School of Music, as head of NASM. Jan Chiapusso of the piano faculty presented a paper at the Piano Forum. Others representing the University were Joseph Wilkins, head of the department of voice; W. Otto Miessner, head of the department of school music; Laurel Everette Anderson, acting head of the theory department; Jeannette Cass of the theory faculty; and David Lawson, music student in the Graduate School. Karl Kuersteiner, of the Fine Art violin faculty, now on a year's leave for study at the University of Michigan, was also present.
Have you done your part? Have you given all you possibly can to the Red Cross Will you have a fair share in helping the boys fighting overseas, in caring for the needy at home, and in sending a few things to the men in prison camms?
Red Cross Needs Help; Do Your Part
The Red Cross still needs donations to reach the quota of $1,000 set for the civilian students here on the Hill. The amount received so far is $890.12, and tomorrow is the last day of the drive.
Miss Marie Miller, co-ordinator of the civilian Red Cross Drive on the campus asks that all the money be turned in tomorrow.
Reporting to members of the College faculty on the two conferences which he attended last week, Dean Paul B. Lawson will speak at 4:30 p.m. today in Fraser theater. General and liberal education, as well as post-war problems, will be included in his discussion.
Lawson to Speak To Faculty Today
Dean Lawson stated today that more than two thousand delegates were present at the annual convention of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Representatives from approximately seventy colleges and universities attended the Conference of University Administrators on General and Liberal Education which took place later in the week. Both meetings were in Chicago.
"I still feel that we can make the quota by tomorrow," Miss Miller said, "and I also feel that the students are anxious to do their part, we are so near the quota."
The department probably receiving the most complaints from students and faculty is the buildings and grounds department, but the tables have turned and the heckled department is now making known some of its difficulties. >
War and Students Bring Hardship To Buildings, Grounds Department
If you have been sitting in class drawing pictures on the dusty window pane or clearing away a space on the glass to see if the sun is still shining, blame the war not the buildings and grounds department. The average age of their janitors is 63 years which is upheld considerably by 82-year-old G. B. McCarty, who has been serving the University since 1927 and is now keeping the anatomy department orderly.
"None of these men," said Superintendent C. G. Bayles, "are young enough to wash outside windows on the upper stories of the University buildings, so until we are able to employ someone capable of doing the job, we'll have to continue listening to the complaints." 90 Students Employed Once
At one time the department employed 88 students with approximately four and five hundred on
the waiting list of the College Students Employment Program. Now there are no student employees in the department and it is impossible to hire any, declared Mr. Bayles, but in the past the department has helped more than 750 students to attend the University he added.
99 Students Employed Once
"We have even appealed to professional window-washers in Kansas City, but all we heard were laughs," said the superintendent. "The agency there told us that they have employed a one-armed man for the task and women are now commonly hired."
Students Also Bring Problem
The war, however, is not responsible for the other complaint of the department. The students themselves have literally destroyed much of the patient work of the department in their landscaping work. A "highway" almost twenty-five feet wide has been trampled across the lot in front of Watson Library, and the blue grass has been completely killed. Some of these paths have been covered with gravel to prevent widening the barren space as in front of the Fowler Shops and Blake hall.
Speech, Drama Festival to Have Varied Activities in 2-Day Meet; State High Schools to Take Part
Former Girls Staters Will Have Gabfest Tomorrow
All former Girls Staters will have a chance to get together and recall old times at the first Girls State gabfest of this year which will be conducted Wednesday night at 7:30 in Watkins hall. Girls who have attended in any other state are invited as well as all the Kansas alumnae.
SSAC to Discuss KU's Good Will
The State-wide Student Activities Commission will meet in the Kansas room of the Union building at 7:15 this evening. The county chairmen and the correspondents will be present to learn how to spread knowledge and good will for the University in their own communities. Patty Piller, chairman of the executive board, said.
A committee composed of Elizabeth Baker, Althea Shuss Vratil, and Elizabeth Kindig are making arrangements for the affair. Girls who plan to attend are urged to contact one of the committee members so that the size of the group can be estimated.
Raymond Nichols, secretary to the Chanceellor, and Prof. K. W. Davidson, director of information will speak to the members.
Postcards have been sent to remind the members of the meeting, and a reply has been requested. Refreshments will be served.
Paul McNutt Declares Manpower Sufficient
Washington, (INS) — War manpower chairman Paul V. McNutt declared today that "the manpower situation is relatively good" and that neither "pressure" to get 4-F's into war work nor any form of national service act is necessary.
Providence, R. L., (INS)—M mayor General Lewis B. Hershey, national draft director, declared today that selective service is prepared to ask the war and navy departments to induct into "work battalions" 4-F registrants who do not contribute "materially and substantially to the war effort."
German Instructor Surprised By Kaffee Klatsch Tuesday
Sarah Peters, instructor in the German department, was surprised last week witt he Kaffeet Klatsch given by a group of her students in German II meeting for a special study session. The old German custom of mid-morning coffee was observed with the serving of coffee, cookies, nuts, and mints by the students.
Members of the group were Julian Norris, Sarah Lee Drais, Helen Huebert, Frances Blair, George Yeckel, and Frank Stannard.
Eight varied activities will be carried on during the two-day festival which is being sponsored by the department of speech and drama at the University. High schools from over the state will participate.
The annual Speech and Drama festival will be held at the University on Friday and Saturday. Gerald L. Pearson of the extension division has announced. The activities will take place in Fraser theater and Green hall.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Negro-White Problem Won't Solve Itself
The Negro-White problem, always a touchy subject, is ignored by most white people in hopes that it will solve itself. But as the Texas orator so truthfully put it last week and as the Letter to the Editor reiterated yesterday, the problem will not solve itself.
It is hard for the average white American to place himself in the Negro's position. When the white student comes to college there are no University living quarters from which he is barred. There are no eating places which he cannot enter. There is no special section of the theater to which he is relegated. In fact, if he were denied one of these privileges, he might very likely demand his rights as a citizen. Privileges Get Warned
Privileges Get Warped
Yet how easy it is for white people to forget that the Negro, too, is a citizen. He, too, pays taxes to support state schools, and, theoretically, is entitled to all the rights and privileges of a tax payer.
Some of those privileges get a little warped when it comes to giving them to the Negro. The Negro girl can major in anything she wishes—home economics and education included—but special provisions must be made for her in order that she may graduate with requirements fulfilled, for she is not allowed to live in the home economics practice house and she may not do practice teaching in the Lawrence high schools.
White Supremacy Proved False
Why not? Because it just isn't done. A Negro girl just doesn't live in a University house with white girls; she just doesn't teach in a school where there are white children. It just isn't done, because people would talk—even church people, who say they believe in the brotherhood of man, would talk.
How petty and how despicable is our American idea of white supremacy. Science has proved for all who care to find out, that there is no such thing as white supremacy—mentally, morally, or physically. The sooner we accept that fact, and go out of our way to become acquainted with our fellow Negro citizens, the better it will be for both races.
Keeler, Stillwell See New Course Prospect
Guy V. Keeler, director of the University Engineering, Science, and Management War Training program, and Prof. Henry S. Stillwell, of the department of aeronautical engineering, returned to the campus Wednesday from a trip to investigate a training program used in North American Aviation of Dallas, Texas.
Mr. Keeler and Professor Stillwell left Sunday to inspect the aircraft plant's methods of instruction in respect to the possibility of setting up a similar program at the University. The proposed training program would be similar to the Aeronautical Technicians training for women which is being given on the campus at the present time.
Upon completion of the course, the women will be given jobs in North American Aviation of Kansas City, Kans., or in Boeing Aircraft Corporation of Wichita. The new course would be advanced engineering training directed to the upgrading of engineers who are already employed in the aeronautical engineering department of aircraft plants.
Passenger traffic on American railroads was almost four times as great in 1943 as in 1939.
Rock Chalk Talk
By HANNA HEDRICK
Side notes on the Tropea tournament: As in days of yore, Clay Hedrick and Arnold Nye, now stationed at Warrensburg, Mo., and Kirk Scott, Phi Delts, went over to the high school basketball tournament Saturday night. Also there were Winifred Ice, Marylou Regier, Thetas, and Dorothy Warren, June Plumb, and Edith Marie Darby, Pi Phis. After a big night (we won't talk about the score) all concerned retired to their rooms in the Kansas hotel. The girls forgot to lock their door. Inevitable consequences. The next morning Dorothy was strolling around the room in a flashy V-neck pair of pajamas and Wini and Edith Marie were lying in bed gazing rather speculatively at all the pink things strewn around the room, when in walked Kirk . . . the door was unlocked, so he thought he would pay a social visit. After standing frozen to the spot for 15 seconds like Mr. Milquetoast surrounded by a harem, our boy Scott wheeled out of the door faster than he had come in.

Rushing—the hard way: Jeanne Brainine may get the "Noble" award for how to really impress a rushee. At 2 a.m., Jeanne was out scouting for Barbara Neely to help paint decorations for the
Juncheon the next day. In a case of mistaken identity, Jeanne got the wrong person, and if it was not until she had orated several minutes about getting the ---- out of bed and doing some work, did she realize that she was addressing a guest. At that point, Jeanne quietly passed into oblivion.

When you gotta, you gotta: Half of Miller Hall was upset the other night, after Jackie Nodler had innocently started humming "Glow Little Glow Worm." The "big, brains" took up the issue, and a battle was soon raging as to whether the correct words were "Glow" or "Shine." Kati Gorrill finally came to the rescue with a musty copy of the song, and proof that the words are "Shine Little Glow Worm, Glimmer Glimmer."

With the passing of Brick's goes one more integral part of the old college social life. Mom and pop used to "coke" there, too, same time, cutting the same classes. In former days, when saddles, "cords", and convertibles were more in style, the basement was a great place for senior "farewell" parties. The only requisite was to be able to swim out the door and up the stairs. Great and weighty problems have been solved behind the locked doors of Brick's basement.
Rare Books On Display In Library
Oldest of the writings is a Latin
Books, hand written or printed over a span of 489 years, are being featured this week in a display of "Books of Six Centuries" on exhibit in the cases on the second floor of Watson library. Miss Mildred Hershey, who has charge of the case displays, has selected from the library's collection of rare books, nine editions which illustrate several different languages and literary types.
manuscript dated 1455. It is a short psalter for speakers, and is hand written with illuminated letters on parchment-like paper. Examples for sixteenth and seventeenth centuries are also in Latin or Latinized Italian.
A German "Argenis" of the year 1644 illustrates the odd compact shape in which books of that date were printed. For 1744 a "Life of Robert Boyle", an early biography of the alchemist and chemist, is displayed. A book of poetry popular in 1835 and a 1944 biography of Boyle, the latter by Trenchard More, complete the exhibit.
When not on display, these rare books and manuscripts are kept with others in the collection in vaults at the library.

Former Student Is Governor of Atoll
A former student of the University is serving now as the first American military governor of an atoll captured from the Japanese. Rear Admiral Alva D, Bernhard, formerly of Lawrence, has been appointed military governor of Kwaajalein in the Marshall islands.
Admiral Bernhard entered the United States Naval Academy after attending the University. He received his wings in the navy air corps at Pensacola naval air station 20 years ago. He has been stationed at North Island with the aircraft squadrons, battle fleet and has served as commander of the naval air station at Coco Solo, C. Z., from 1930 to 1932. Following this command, he was attached to the staff of Rear Admiral Henry E. Hough, commanding base force, Pacific fleet as aviation officer.
Recently he was given command of an aircraft task force, operating in the southwestern Pacific.
Two of his sisters are living in Lawrence now.

Spring football practice began yesterday afternoon with sessions to be held five days a week for about a month. Approximately forty men reported to Coachs Henry Shenk, Elmer Schaake, and Dean Nesmith. More men are expected to report in the next few days.
Spring Practice Began Yesterday
The workouts will consist mostly of learning fundamentals, and a lot of good hard-blocking and tackling, two things Coach Shenk insists upon for his teams. Suits were donned yesterday and contact work will probably get under way soon. The spring practice will give the coaching staff an idea of the material available for next fall's campaign, as many new men are reporting while several of last year's regulars have been transferred in the navy program. Several lettermen and other prospects are out for track and will not participate in the practice.
A rugged 10-game schedule is being made for the Jayhawks, with teams such as Denver, Washburn, and Texas Christian being considered for the schedule besides the regular Big Six contests.

Spring training is now in fun swing at baseball camps all over the country. Exhibition games are beginning to get in full swing with the players slowly rounding into shape. The managers of all the big league teams are going to be in for a rough season, with players becoming 1-A and going to the army as the pennant race progresses. The club with the most 4-F's will at least have one advantage over the other teams. The utility player, the man that can play several positions and play them well, will be the most valuable to his team and manager. Infielders will have to learn to play outfield and outfielders the infield, and pitchers may even have to catch on their off days. About the only position where there is no really acute shortage of men is at the pitching position. The developments that occur as the title race gets going will be interesting to watch as the Great American Game prepares to begin and finish another thrilling season.
Phillips "66" of Bartlesville, Okla., annual stalwarts in AAU cage circles, won its second consecutive national AAU basketball title Saturday night with a hard-earned 50 to 43 victory over Denver Ambrose-Legion. The Phillip's team this year was one of the most high scoring quintets to come out of Bartlesville in years. Pralle, McNatt, Browning, and Co. seemed to have the ability this year to get a basket whenever there was a need for one. The defense was probably not as good as in former years, but when points were needed the "66" lads always came through, usually with a victory.
The Iowa State baseball squad has been cut to 35 men from the 150 candidates who first reported. Coach Clayton Sutherland has only two lettermen from 1943 — one navy trainee and one civilian, but a strong

Independents Win Deck Tennis Match
The Independents and I.W.W. teams won in the two deck tennis games played last night in the women's intramural tuornament.
Independents scored 35 points to win from the Co-op team, whose players made 23 points. Marian Eisele, Vera Strobel, and Mary Hughes were the outstanding players for the Independents. Lois Harkleroad and Charlotte Price led the Co-op team.
I. W.W. and Etc played the second game in the tournament last night. Scoring 43 points, the Etc won. I.W.W. made 23 points.
team is expected to emerge from the Cyclone camp.
Another war-caused change has been made by the NCAA officials. Dartmouth and Utah play tonight in the East-West final of the NCAA, but no matter who wins, Utah will play St. Johns, winner of the national invitational tourney. The reason is an old one; the Dartmouth team was unable to obtain permission to appear in the Red Cross game because of navy regulations. Utah, an all-civilian team, has again stepped into the limelight. When beaten by Kentucky in the invitational tournament at New York, they accepted a last-minute bid to participate in the western division play-offs of the NCAA and won. Now they can go back to the East and take up where they left off.
The Utes are probably the first team to ever play in two tournaments, win one and play the winner of the other for the national title, all this even if they lose the Dartmouth game. Another queer situation emerging from a sports war-world.

A special Easter service was discussed and is to be planned under the direction of a committee to be selected soon by the executive committee.
Doris Bixby, College sophomore, was chosen temporary chairman of the Student Christian Federation by representatives of student religious organizations in a meeting at Myers hall last week.

KU Will Have Training Center For Recreation
A wartime recreation training institute will be held at the University from May 16 to 20, featuring Miss Anne Livingston and Pat Rooney from the National Recreation Association, Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, chairman of the department of physical education, announced today.
The institute will train volunteers for wartime community recreation programs in Kansas; bring new vision, inspiration, techniques and activities; revitalize existing programs; develop higher leadership standards; and help volunteers obtain better results and give better service.
Enrollment in the institute will be open to anyone interested in community recreational programs, Dr. Allen pointed out. It is especially aimed at representatives from Chamber of Commerce groups, service clubs, farm bureaus, business and professional women's clubs, Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. organizations, youth clubs, churches, camp counsellors, American Legion, Parent Teachers Associations, Women's Clubs and physical education directors.
Miss Livingston Recreation Leader
Miss Livingston Recreation Bureau Miss Livingston, nationally famous recreation leader coming from the National Recreation Association in New York, will be available at the Institute for consultation service, leadership training, and program planning. Mr. Rooney, secretary of the national association, will also be on the Institute staff.
"The purpose of the institute," said Dr. Allen, "is to help perpetrate the national plan that every child in America shall have a chance to play; that everybody in America, young and old, shall have an opportunity to find the best and most satisfying use of leisure time. The tremendous demands made by the war on recreational personnel have resulted in entrance into the field of many young, untrained workers, and many new volunteers of all ages."
Allies Abandon Two Positions to Germans
Allied troops at Cassino abandoned two bitterly contested positions on the slopes of Monastery hill to the Germans today, and once again the campaign in Italy assumed an unfavorable aspect. However, allied air power in the Mediterranean again was active in their support, blasting rail centers and communication points throughout Italy, including Milan and Verona. A London report said that all supply lines from the north into Rome now have been severed.
(International News Service)
Official Moscow advices told of continued Russian advances toward Odessa and the Czeckoslovak frontier. Axis controlled broadcasts again reported the Russians inside old Rumania itself although a report from the Soviet capital said that troops of Marshal Ivan Konev were on the Rumanian border ready to surge across if Rumania ignores a last chance to rebel against her German master.
Icy Winds Subside With Sun
After breaking out in light-colored spring blouses and sitting outside on the steps after dinner for gossip sessions for the past few days students gave up their hopes of spring weather in despair yesterday as they huddled over radiators and watched the snow being hurled against the window panes by an icy blast.
Although only .13 inches of moisture was recorded by the geology department, students can much more easily believe that the actual snowfall totailed 1.30 inches. Bright sunshine this morning, however, restored their spirits, and plans for spring picnics are going ahead.
Lawson Explains General College To the Faculty
A new "general college" plan, entailing an almost complete schedule of required courses rather than so many elective subjects, for first year university students was discussed before College faculty members by Dean Paul B. Lawson, yesterday afternoon in his report on two progressive education conferences which he attended last week in Chicago.
Under this plan, which was instituted at the University of North Carolina in 1935, a separate system with its dean and faculty advisers for specializing in the study of students' problems and giving students advice would be set up. Because more than 40 per cent of all University freshmen do not have an idea of what they want to major in and 60 per cent change their minds after their first year, more expert counselling is needed, according to advocates of this plan.
Since the majority of students do not continue their education after their first year, and only 37 per cent of them go on to get their degrees, it is even more necessary for freshmen to get a general education in all fields of study, advocators of the plan argue.
Dean Lawson, however, is, in general, opposed to this plan. He believes that the professional schools here would not approve and that,
Only 22 of the 58 faculty members attending the College meeting yesterday had planned to follow the vocation or one allied to that in which they are now engaged when they are freshmen in college, a show of hands revealed.
Many on Faculty Didn't Plan to Teach
(continued to page four)
The question arose when it was revealed that 60 per cent of freshmen over the nation do not know what they want to make their life's work.
Further than that only half of them knew what they wanted to do when they were graduated.

University Nears Red Cross Goal
The total figures so far in the civilian part of the Red Cross drive according to Miss Marie Miller, coordinator of the civilian Red Cross Drive on the campus, is $938.15. This includes the money taken up at the Crafton show, "Close Quarters" which amounted to $54.53. The goal is $1,000.
There are still some promises for more money to the civilian fund according to Miss Miller, who says that if anyone wants to make a last contribution there is still time. The grand total on the University including faculty, employees, service men, and civilian students amounted to $4,483.36.
Douglas county went over the top on its quota of $29,100 and now have county drive closes Friday at midnight they hope to be $7,000 over a total of $35,175.54. Before the goal or have a grand total of $36,100.
Monday noon Dr. F. C. Allen, received a call from St. Louis, the headquarters for the Red Cross in this district, saying that if Kansas wired $3,000 more dollars they would stand a good chance of being the first state in the Union over the top in the nation wide drive. Dr. Allen has not heard from St. Louis as to the results.

Dies-Winchell Feud Blazes Furiously
The feud between Texas' Representative Martin Dies and Columnist Walter Winchell blazed Sunday night when Dies, chairman of the Committee on Un-American Activities, followed Winchell's broadcast over a national hook-up.
The verbal battle, which has been raging for some time, was intensified recently when Dies announced to the House of Representatives that he had succeeded in suppressing the publication of Michael Sayers' and Albert Kahn's best-seller "Sabotage." In the course of the speech, Dies said that a great deal of the material in the book was lifted verbatim from the Committee's report on Japanese and Nazi activities without due credit given, and that the Committee demanded the publication be ceased when the publishers upheld the author's refusal to insert the credit Dies demanded. Dies Plans Investigation
The Congressman intimated that he is planning an investigation that will smear Winchell, whose radio scripts he has subpoenaed.
In answer to Dies' statements Winchell charged that Dies had had the book suppressed, because it was an expose on the Congressman's failure to execute his duties as chairman of the Committee on Un-American Activities.
Sunday night Winchell reaffirmed every statement he had made about the Congressman, invited the Committee to investigate him, and asked Dies to go to court or waive congressional immunity so he could take the case to court.
Dies maintained that he meant to expose that faction, of which Winchell is a member, which, by vituperative innuendo, plots to destroy the characters of public men who get in the way of the group's objectives. He cited figures to show that the Committee has made some investigations.
Fight Amounts to Smear Campaign Undoubtedly, each man has a case. Perhaps Dies has been lax in his duties at times, as evidenced by PM's charge that he "lifted" material from newspapers and magazines and presented it as his own. It seems strange, also, that Dies should have suppressed a book which has been endorsed by such organizations as the nation's press, the Council of Books in Wartime, and the Cardinal Hayes Foundation. On the other hand, Winchell is famous for his love of fighting, and his repeated attacks on Dies indicate he means to make the Congressman his victim. Almost all the charges the men have made, however, are by inference or innuendo. To the American public, the petty bickering amounts to nothing but the smearing of two public figures which can lead to little more than an endless chain of abusive remarks.
Rev. J. A. Gregg Visits Theaters of War
A tour of all the war fronts where negro troops are stationed has taken the Rev. J. A. Gregg, a graduate of the University, over 58,000 miles by air and several thousand more by train. The Rev. Mr. Gregg has just completed his trip taking cheer to the overseas theaters of war.
Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal African Methodist church, he made the tour as a representative of the Fraternal Council of Negro churches. The Council is an organization of 40,000 churches with a membership of over 6,000,000.

I'm going back! Virginia Kline took all the members of her Theta pledge class (they're juniors now) out to Miller, Kan., for the weekend. Although Miller's population is negligible, everyone came back with the earmarks of a rip-snorting good time. Virginia McGill, to be specific, had her head in a sling and a cast on her ankle.

During the course of the two days, the girls went to another town (smaller even than Miller) to skate.
At the same skating party a grimy 9-year-old with sagging stockings approached Lila Jean Doughman.
Woggie (Stewart) Jones drew the first blood. As she whisked around the rink with a sailor who had bashfully asked her to be his partner, Thetas on the sidelines shouted, "Mrs. Jones, Mr. Jones wouldn't like that." The sailor became more and more nervous, finally excusing himself altogether.
Sylvia Small, D.G., plans her entire day by the ouija board — Marie Larson, Watkins hall, has confessed to men in her marketing class that she was married at the age of 13—Luther Buchele, Co-op stripper and president of YM, is distressed with the way people are remembering his carnival name, "Tobacco Rhoda."
"Please, mam." the child asked pointing at Woggle, "are that lady's fingernails real?"
Supreme Court Rules Against Forcible Draft In Billings Case
Later the girls walked into the store for drinks. "Gosh, look at them clothes," gasped a wide-eyed young native to his playmate.

Betty Leibbrand, junior in the School of Business; and Herbert Peterson, second year law student, were appointed justices of the student court by the All-Student Council in last night's meeting; and Clarence Engle was elected secretary of the ASC.
Arthur Billings, University graduate in 1933, won a decision from the Supreme Court. Monday that a selective service registrant cannot be forcibly induced into the army against his will, although if he refuses to submit to induction, he violates the selective service act.
Before being drafted into the army, Mr. Billings was professor of economics at the University of Texas. A former Lawrence boy, he was a member of the Unitarian church here and had been elected to Phi Beta Kappa as a University student.
Jeanne Hollis, College junior; Robert Campbell, College freshman; and Evelyn Mercer, College sophomore, took the oath of office as representatives on the Council.
***
This decision reversed previous rulings by the Tenth Circuit Court and Federal District Court for Kansas that Mr. Billings was inducted into the army after the army oath, which he had refused to take, had been read to him.
Although Mr. Billings had notified his draft board in Ottawa County, Kansas, before induction that he refused to serve in the army, he had been classified 1-A, denied reclassification as a conscientious objector, had reported to Ft. Leavenworth for physical examination, and had been classified 1-B limited service. Since his refusal to take the induction oath and the question as to his status in August, 1942, Billings has been in the post guard house at the Leavenworth induction station.
An amendment to the WEC book exchange bill was passed making possible the appropriation of $100 from the book exchange profits for a scholarship fund.
If it had not been for the protection offered by other A.O.Pi's, Patty Sloan would have been the first woman to appear on the campus with a crew cut. Early this week, Gerry (All or Nothing at All) Gentry tried to give Patty a baby bob.
ASC Names Justices To Student Court
Former Grad Writes Of Her Orientation To Island Life
After only a few weeks in the Hawaiian islands teaching in a nursery school, Helen Sanderson, who received her bachelor of arts degree from the University in 1935, appears to be thoroughly oriented to island life.
Miss Sanderson has written to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Sanderson of Lawrence, telling of the afternoons which she spends in the USO headquarters serving as hostess and the afternoons she works for the Red Cross at Scofield hospital at Honolulu in addition to her regular work in her school.
Miss Sanderson, with another young woman, has charge of a nursery school on a large sugar plantation at Waiialua on Oahu island. The school is operated for children of native workers of many nationalities; and all the students are under six years of age. Japanese, Japanese-Portuguese, Filipinos and even a mixture of Chinese and Japanese blood is found in her young students, writes Miss Sanderson.
Miss Sanderson and her friends with whom she keeps the nursery live in a cottage on the beach where they do most of their cooking in an outdoor kitchen.
Miss Sanderson speaks of the men with whom she talks in the hospitals being particularly grateful to the Red Cross. They speak bitterly about strikes, she writes.
Robert Bock, sports editor of the Daily Kansan during the first semester of the college year, is stationed now with the Army Air Corps at Sheppard Field, Wichita Falls, Texas.
Miss Sanderson majored in English at the University. Before going to Hawaii she taught in Stillwater, Okla.
He is in a group commanded by Lt. Maurice Barker, who was graduated from the University last year. Lt. Barker was a major in journalism and at one time was editor-in-chief of the Daily Kansan.

Riggs' Body Found In Plane Wreckage
Col. Carroll G. Riggs, former member of the ROTC at the University, was killed in an army plane crash in the Southwest Pacific on December 17, 1942, according to notification received by his wife. His plane had been reported missing since that date, and it was not until last month that it, and the bodies of military personnel aboard, were discovered.
The ill-fated plane which was on an isolated mission evidently struck a mountainside at cruising speed in adverse weather, it was reported. Col. Karl Baldwin, who was Col. Riggs commanding officer at the University, had previously made an exhaustive search and had reported he feared Col. Riggs was killed. Colonel Baldwin is stationed in Australia where Col. Riggs had been based.
Mrs. Riggs, who is now living in San Jose, Calif., has been notified that Colonel Riggs was buried with full military honors in Australia. Col. and Mrs. Riggs and their three daughters had planned to make their permanent home in Lawrence after the war.
Colonel Riggs was sent to active duty before the outbreak of the war, and was in one of the rearliest contingents to be sent to the South-west Pacific.
Lyle Armel Promoted To Commandership
Lyle O. Armel of Lawrence, director of the endowment corporation of the University, has been promoted to commander in the United States Naval Reserve.

Until last December he was on duty aboard a transport in the Pacific and served in the operations at Kiska and Amchitka. Since December he has been executive officer of a transport in the Atlantic.
Commander Armel, a graduate of the University in 1920, lives in Lawrence.

Defense Player Rule Draws Fire From Dr. Allen
The rule forbidding a defensive basketball player to touch the ball on its downward flight toward the basket, as one of the four changes announced yesterday by the National Basketball Rules Committee, drew a blast today from D. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, dean of American basketball coaches, as being only about 10 per cent efficient in removing current evils from the game.
The action of the rules committee, Dr. Allen stated, is only symptomatic of the pressure groups complaining about tall players; the only time coaches complain against tall players is when they don't have any.
"The rules committee has lacked a long-range constructive viewpoint and consequent program for the game," said Allen. "They are still treating symptoms and failing to remove the cause of the disease. The new rule only takes care of tall players on defense. The committee has done nothing about them on offense. It is a most discriminating rule against the defensive player while allowing the offensive man every freedom under the basket." Mezzanine Boys Still Effective
A 7-foot player. Dr. Allen continued, can still stand in front of the basket and bat sure shots away. Most players shoot a low skimmer shot anyway, starting it from a height of $5^{\frac{1}{2}}$ to $6^{\frac{1}{2}}$ feet almost directly toward a 10-foot basket. The tall player, who is able to jump from a foot to a foot and a half above the basket, can easily prevent the ball finding its mark before it starts its descent toward the hoop. There are very few officials. Dr. Allen stated, will worry about whether the ball has lost its ascent when the tall player intercepts the sphere.
In continuing his attack on the rules committee, Dr. Allen proposes the establishment of a subsidized, capable research committee for actual fact finding in the matter of cage evils. Then he suggests that they freeze the present rules for a period of three years in order not to discriminate against any player now in school and after a three-year period of research and fact finding, put proposed rule changes into effect. This, he said, would be much more effective and much fairer than listening to the disgruntled opinions of a few coaches.
Approves Unlimited Substitution
As for the other rules adopted by the committee—unlimited substitutions, officials' time out for injured players, and five personal fouls, Coach Allen voiced hearty approval. The unlimited substitution rule should have been adopted years ago, he pointed out. As a matter of fact the football rules committee got the jump in that field on the cagers years ago. Chiefly, he continued, it will remove the curse of sideline coaching and take the crowds off the coaches' backs.
LAWSON----
(continued from page one) by filling the present required fields in the College schedule, College students are already receiving these fundamentals. By reducing the number of advisers and the adviser's teaching load, making it possible for them to devote more time to counseling the students, a more inexpensive but just as effective method of improving our advisory system can be worked out, he believes.
Reporting on the North Central Association meeting, Dean Lawson stated that a central control agency, under the supervision of the Armed Forces Institute, is to be set up to give examinations to returning servicemen to determine the efficiency of the knowledge gained through their military experiences. The American Counsel of Education will assist in determining the amount of college credit that can be given for these military experiences, such as learning foreign languages. Such a system will help in avoiding the competition and bribes offered to servicemen by various colleges after the last war. Confusion as to the value of education acquired in military service will thus be eliminated.
'Goal Tenders Curbed by Rules Committee
Four major rule changes were made yesterday by the National Basketball Committee. The most important change was the move to eliminate "goal tenders" by sharply restricting their activities. The new ruling came after college coaches had requested that some move be made to curb excessively tall players, who have been used to bat away shots from the basket. The committee complied by forbidding defensive players from touching the ball on its downward flight on a shot for the goal. The penalty is the award of a field goal, the only exception being when the ball obviously is falling short of the basket.
Three other rules changes made during a two-day session were:
(1) Raising from four to five the number of personal fouls a player may commit before being disqualified from the game.
(2) Permitting players to reenter the game an unlimited number of times instead of being restricted to two re-entries after once leaving the court.
(3) Granting the officials authority to suspend play immediately in the case of an injury to a player. Under present rules officials cannot stop play for an injury unless the injured player's team is in possession of the ball or until the play in progress at the time of the injury has been completed.
The committee, headed by James W. St. Clair of Southern Methodist University and including representatives of the National Collegiate Athletic Association, the National Federation of State High School Athletic Associations, the YMCA and two Canadian groups, considered several other proposed solutions of the goal-tending problem.
Gamma Phi's Win Two of Three Games
Gamma Phi Beta table tennis teams won two of the three doubles matches played with Alpha Omicron Pi yesterday.
Barbara Kile and Emily Stacey won two sets from Gerry Gentry and Helen June Wise. The set scores were 21-6 and 21-10.
The other winning Gamma Phi team was LaVerne Kelley and Roberta McClugage. Their opponents were Dolores Grossenbacker and Mary Ethwyn Franks. The set scores were 21-17 and 21-4.
The A.O.Pi sister team of Patricia and Janet Sloan won the only game for their teams. Playing Betty Pile and Gloria Nelson, the Sloan sisters won two sets. Set scores were 21-16 and 21-7.
Games between Chi Omega and Sigma Kappa, which were scheduled for yesterday, have been postponed until Friday.
Two teams will play this afternoon. Delta Gamma will play the Pi Beta Phi teams, and the Co-ops will play the Independents.

Sportorials By Charles Moffett
With spring football drills beginning this week, signs are pointing toward one of the game's most unpredictable seasons in history. With the navy trainees making up the bulk of most of the teams over the country, coaches will have hard times knowing when transfers, restrictions, and other navy orders are going to hit. This will be particularly true around November 1, when innumerable shifts in navy personnel will be made in schools all over the country. This was true to some extent last year and all indications point to an even more hectic first week in November with coaches hunting replacements for their departed regulars. Owing to the snowstorm yesterday, outdoor practice was not held by the coaching staff, and squad members viewed pictures of last year's Kansas State and Missouri games.
Spring practice at Nebraska begins this week and will last throughout the month of April. Coach Lew Lewandowski has about 10 veterans who expect to report for the grid sessions. The Cornhuskers are also having summer practice starting the 15th of July and running for a month. Although the rest of the schedule is not definite, the opening game for Nebraska will be the Minnesota team at Minneapolis, September 30.

B League Schedule
During the grid season of 1943 the Cornhuskers, along with Kansas State, were hard-presesd for material, but both schools played out the season against navy-reinforced schools. The same thing occurred in basketball, but still the two want to play in Big Six circles. This is a fine spirit displayed by Kansas State and Nebraska and they deserve much credit for doing more than their part in keeping the conference going.

Utah Beats Dartmouth For NCAA Title
Utah University, western division winner of the NCAA, returned to Madison Square Garden last night and beat the Dartmouth Redskins, 42 to 40, in a thrilling overtime battle. The Utes are now winners of the National Collegiate Athletic Association basketball title.
A goal by Herb Wilkinson a second before the gun ended the overtime period gave the ball-hawking Rocky Mountain youngsters the decision. A crowd of almost 15,000 was on hand to witness the climax of a climb back to the top after losing to Kentucky in the invitation tournament.
Two Games to Be Played Tonight in Tournament
The score at the end of the regulation playing time was 36-36. Dick McGuire sent the game into an extra period when he dropped in a field goal for Dartmouth to knot the count as the buzzer sounded, ending the regulation game.
Two deck tennis games are scheduled for tonight in the women's intramural tournament. The games between Watkins hall and Kappa Kappa Gamma and the Alpha Delta Pi vs. Alpha Chi Omega game will both be played at 8:30 tonight in Robinson gymnasium.

The final result in the campus civilian drive was $1.001.65, according to Miss Marie Miller, co-ordinator. The goal of $1.000 was reached on the final day of the drive.
Former ASTP Writes of His Appreciation Of the University
This makes a total of $4,501.86 in the drive all over the campus, including faculty, employees, service men, and civilian students.
The sunset across the valley, as seen from Lindley hall is a scene we can never forget. As long as any of us shall live, we will always hold a memory of a school on a hill and a beautiful valley surrounding it on all sides. The atmosphere of K.U. is one that cannot be duplicated anywhere.
Four days ago three hundred of us left your campus. It was a sad farewell for most of us, because for the past eight months we have had one of the most pleasant interludes of our lives. We came to you from colleges of many states, and many of us were critical of this University situated in the little-heard-of state of Kansas. As the weeks passed, so did this initial attitude. We came to love your campus, and your hospitality.
Alpha Chi Omega $42, Alpha Delta Pi $33, Alma Omicron Pi $12, Battenfield hall $19.65, Beta Theta Pi $32, Red Cross Boxes $26.61, Carruth hall $8, Chi Omega $30.45, Corbin hall $100, Delta Gamma $35, Foster hall $13.72, Gamma Phi Beta $50, Harmon Co-op $7.75, Individual $31.15, Crafton Show $45.43, Independents $63.95, Jolliffe hall $22.50, Kappa Alpha Theta $52.50, Kappa Kappa Gamma $77.48, Kaw Koettes $9, Lindley Hall workers $12.03, Miller hall $50, Ricker hall $5, Sigma Kappa $49, Watkins hall $66.00, Sigma chi $25, Colored girls $11.23, Pi Beta Phi $60, Triangle $3, and Phi Beta Pi $37.50.
Those contributing in the civilian drive were:
Schroeder to Report for Great Lakes Hospital Duty
Editor's note: The Daily Kansan received the following letter from Private Niesen yesterday.
Charles P. Schroeder, pharmacist's mate second class of the University Naval Training Station, has been assigned to report for duty at the Naval Hospitals of the Great Lakes Naval Training Station. Seaman Schroeder will leave Lawrence for his new assignment today. He has been stationed here since December 2, 1943.
Still fresh in our minds is the scene of our departure - the final
parade through the campus and down the hill to the station, the people waving good-by, shouting good-luck, and telling us to come back soon. It may not be soon, but many ASTP men will some day return to Kansas University. May God speed that day when we will greet you again, and begin studies of our own choosing.
We miss you all and we hope you miss us, too. We know that we were loud and noisy, and in some cases even rude, but we hope you can understand the problems we had, and some of the difficulties we had to meet.
Pvt. Bill Nesen.
Goodbye for now, and please accept our heartfelt thanks for making our stay on your campus such a pleasant and profitable one.
Weather Sets New Low Record
With a record of almost 20 degrees below the normal for corresponding days of the month in years past, the temperature this morning was reported to be only 20 degrees above zero, a rise of five degrees from that of yesterday.
The average temperature for March this year has been nearly five degrees below normal, the average being pulled down by the unusually low mercury readings in the last few days of this month. Although snows are not infrequent on these dates, the flakes usually melt as soon as they reach the ground, and the weather does not continue cold as it has done lately. Several cars were unable to climb the Hill yesterday morning due to the icy streets, which finally became passable when the sun melted the ice later in the day.
Asiatic Front Outlook Brighter
(International News Service)
The outlook on the United Nations latest fighting front in Asia took a turn for the better today with official disclosure that one Japanese invasion column, pressing into the jungles of Eastern Asia from Burma have been cut to pieces and another stopped in its tracks.
Admiral Lord Louis Mountbatten, commander-in-chief of Allied forces in the Eastern Asiatic theater, supplied the cheering information that 2,500 Japanese have been killed or wounded by British, American and Chinese troops in the Burma operations during recent weeks, and it became increasingly evident that the Japanese push across the border of Manipur state in India was less of an offensive than a counterthrust aimed to offset the allied gains and give encouragement to pro-Japanese elements still infesting the border region.
Coincident with Mountbatten's announcement of this victory, Lt. Gen. Joseph W. Stilwell, commanding American and Chinese troops in the north, revealed that the main road in the Moggaung valley had been severed by a road block, confronting a second enemy column with encirclement and annihilation.
Meanwhile, Cernauti, third largest city in Rumania, fell to the Red army. Capture of the vital city, entryway by road and rail to the Ploesti oil fields was announced by a special order of the day by Premier Joseph Stalin.
The Cassino battlefront remained inactive, but members of the Mediterranean command carried out a heavy attack on the Bulgarian capital of Sofia.
Vote of Confidence Given By Commons to Churchill
London, (INS)—Prime Minister Winston Churchill confounded his critics today by receiving an overwhelming vote of confidence, 425 to 23, in the house of commons on a minor domestic issue which he had turned into a crucial test of his entire range of policy.
Lindley Remains Under Guidance Of U S Army
Since army medics and A-12's still have to eat, Lindley hall will remain under the supervision of the army for the time being, stated Raymond Nichols, executive secretary. Both of these groups are still being fed over there, although only about eighty men, all A-12's, are being housed in the hall since the ASTP's were moved out, and the medics are stationed in other houses over the campus.
University authorities have received notice that more men in these classifications will be moved to the campus about the first of May, which will be the beginning of a new term under the schedule of classes. Until then, the top floors of the hall, which have been vacant since the ASTP's left last week, will be closed.
Because there are no other facilities on or near the campus for feeding these men or housing the A-12's, it is necessary to keep the hall open for this skeleton force until the end of their 12-week term when the number of men stationed here will be increased again.
Deadline Extended For Queen Entries
The closing date for entries in the Jayhawker beauty queen contest has been extended at the request of several women's houses. Mary Morrill editor of the Jayhawker has announced. Originally scheduled to end today, the period for submitting pictures will be extended until Wednesday. April 5, she said.
The pictures will be judged first by a committee of University men who will select a group of women to attend a tea, given probably in the Kansan room.
From those attending the tea, the same committee will select a smaller group to be photographed by H. E. Hammeril of the Christopher studios in Topeka. These final pictures will be sent to some national figure to be ranked. The top contestants will be featured in the final June 15 issue of the Jayhawker magazine.
"All entry pictures should be submitted with an identification giving the name, address, and telephone number of the contestant," said Miss Morrill. No limit is placed on the number of entries from one organized house.
War Casualties
Washington, (INS)—The war department announced today the names of 441 soldiers wounded in action. Four Kansans were included on the list. They were:
Central Pacific area
Tech. 5th Gr, Frank F. Zorn of Redwing and Tech. Sgt. George A. Clausen of Girard. Mediterranean area
Staff Sgt. Lewis Gross, 527 West 4th Street, Junction City.

We know a coed who has a fitting motto hanging in her room, quote: "Life is just one damned thing after another." Proof of the motto could be given by Frances Mee, Gamma Phi, who focused much gray matter on seeing some bacteria through a microscope in Man and Microbes class. She finally discovered that the slide containing the bacteria wasn't on the microscope.
In the same class, Mary Margaret Reynolds and the lab instructor who came to assist her likewise failed to find any bacteria. After lengthy investigation, it came out that in cleaning the slide, "Renny" also cleaned off the bacteria--just one solution to getting rid of bacteria.

Wilson Becomes Sergeant In Army Medical Corps
Lest there be confusion, Eleanor of the Zilch family, is no relation to Eleanor of the Roosevelt family. Indeed, an education from travel is the only thing they have in common.
Harold Wilson, a graduate student at the University in 1941 and 1942, has been promoted to the rank of Staff Sergeant in the medical corps, according to word received recently by T. C. Rythe, director of the University Press.
As a student at the University Sergeant Wilson was employed as assistant pressman on the University Press.
He has recently been transferred from Camp Ellis, Ill., to Louisville, Ky., where he is now with the 155th general hospital.
Robert Pugh to Begin Aviation Cadet Training
Pvt. Robert F. Pugh, Jr., a student at the University during the first part of the school year and a member of Phi Kappa Psl. has been transferred from Jefferson Barracks, Mo., to the Army air field at Frederick, Okla., where he will begin training as an aviation cadet.
wife and their two-month old son are living with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Morrow at Pleasant Hill, Mo.
Rebecca Oldfather, who for a number of years was employed in the periodical room of Watson library, is now in England with the Red Cross. She and four other American girls are attached to the 32nd General hospital. Miss Oldfather is in charge of the handcraft work. Recently an exhibit of the men's work was sent to headquarters in London where it received a special commendation.
Mary Alice Hardman, who was an assistant instructor of Spanish last year at the University, is now in Washington, D. C., training for overseas duty with the Red Cross. She received her bachelor of arts degree here in 1942 and her master's degree last month. She was a member of Sigma Kappa sorority. Her home was in Porto Rica.
Graduates Are Working Overseas Performing Varied Red Cross Jobs
Jeanne Luther, who received her bachelor of arts degree from the University in 1935, is now associated with the Red Cross overseas in clubmobile work. Her work carries her close to the combat lines and she often has to use a jeep instead of a clubmobile.

One of the men engaged in Red Cross work in army camps is Wesley Gordon, a graduate from the University in 1935 and former managing editor of the Topeka Daily Capital.
Extra foods, warm clothing, and needed medicines are provided by Red Cross workers to those taken prisoner by the enemy. Relieving the servicemen in every way possible from injuries received in battle, easing worries that may hamper them in warfare, and keeping them cheerful and happy are but a few of the many duties of the Red Cross workers now serving with our men in the service.
Food Points Lowered To Gain Storage Space
Frozen fruits and vegetables have been put on a "point-free" basis to relieve congestion of cold storage space, the OPA has announced. Effective Sunday, frozen fruits and vegetables will be ration-free, although present low point values on popular cuts of beef, veal, pork and lamb will be continued through April 29.
Canned peas, available in large quantities, have been placed on the point-free list also, and the point value of canned carrots has been reduced from five points on a No. 2 can to three points.
Space is needed for storing butter, eggs, and other perishable commodities which will soon come into peak seasonal production, he said.
Reduction of the point value of frozen foods is only one of a number of steps necessary to free as large a portion of the cold storage space as possible for use in storing meats, according to Marvin Jones food administrator.
James K. Hitt Promoted To Major in Artillery School

Refreshments were served by members of Dorsey-Liberty Unit No. 14 of the American Legion Auxiliary. Members of the auxiliary who served were Mrs. Everett Stith, president of the local unit, Mrs. George Melvin, and Mrs. George Hedrick.
Girls' State is an organization sponsored by the American Legion Auxiliary and affords an opportunity for girls to receive a week's training in state, county, and city government. The last two sessions were held at the University of Kansas in 1941 and 1942. Because of the war the sessions had to be discontinued

Sportorials By Charles Moffett
Basketball in Kansas seems to be on the up-grade if attendance figures mean anything. High school basketball all over the state flourished the past season. Figures released from the State High School Activities association disclosed that 126,000 fans attended the districts, regionals, semi-finals, and final tournaments. A total of 52,000 flocked to the fifty-six class B district tourneys, 48,000 for the sixteen regionals, 14,000 for the semi-finals at Ottawa, Russell, Eureka, Hutchinson and Kansas City, and 12,000 for the finals at Topeka. From the quality of basketball played and the fans' support of the game, it is evidence for the claims of Kansas that it is one of the foremost hot-beds for basketball in the nation.

Two of the finest basketball teams in the United States will play tonight in Madison Sjuare Garden. All the proceeds taken from the game will go to the Red Cross. A crowd of 18,000 is expected to be on hand to witness the meeting of the "Cinderella" team, Utah, and St. John's of Brooklyn.

tory. St. John's won the invitational tourney for the second straight year with upset victories over Bowling Green, Kentucky and DePaul. The Red Cross will receive over $50-000 from the contest, just as it did a year ago, when Wyoming nosed out St. John's for top national rating. A mythical national championship will be the goal of the two teams and a great cause will benefit from their efforts.

EASTER GREETINGS
Ol' Man Winter seems to be against spring football practice here at the University. Yesterday was the second straight day that the reluctance of the snow and cold winds to leave caused Jayhawk mentor Henry Shenk to hold a "chalk talk" inside, instead of the planned outdoor practice. If at all possible Shenk will have his hopeful work outside tonight.
M G
There will be no spring football practice this year at Kansas State for the same reason that none was held last year—lack of manpower. According to reports from the Aggie camp the campus has been scoured for possibilities without much success. It is hoped by the athletics department that all eligibles will go out for track.

The loss of army trainees on the University of Missouri campus was severely felt because approximately 2,000 were in training there. More than half that number have been transferred from the campus this week.
The change means that a number of the fraternity houses in which the trainees were housed will be turned back to the Greek organizations who may be unable to find occupants. University dormitories too have been vacated.

Japs Turn Tail As US Attacks Palau Islands
(International News Service)
Strong indications the Japanese navy may not decide to come out and fight until it has the shore guns of Yokohama bay at its back were seen today in continued absence of enemy naval opposition to the most daring assault of the Pacific war to date.
Thundering guns of United States war ships and bombs from low flying aerial armadas pressed beyond the 72 hour mark, a paralyzing assault on Japanese bases in the Palau islands, inner circle of Japan's home defenses only 460 miles east of the enemy held Philippine islands, but all dispatches from fleet headquarters of Admiral Chester W. Nimitz confirmed that the Japanese fleet based there had turned tail the moment America's mighty flotilla was sighted.
New Ships in Action
Coinciding with devastating aerial attacks upon Truk and on a great Japanese air base at Hollandia on the coast of New Guinea the Palau assault brought into action some of the largest and newest ships in the United States fleet. Japanese gar-
tions throughout the Palau group, which comprises the western end of the Caroline islands chain, were hammered with tons of steel, and there was every reason to believe major bases of the island now have been immobilized.
As against the lack of determined Japanese existence the Germans uncorked an almost unprecedented wave of opposition to a British night bombing raid on Nuremberg. Out of nearly 1000 bombers which assaulted the city, 96 were lost, the greatest number ever sacrificed in a single raid.
Japs Progress in India
Japanese troops which crossed the Burma road into the Indian state of Manipur made some new progress despite earlier setbacks, but General Sir Clauce Auchinleck, chief of British forces in India, said Imphal still is in our hands.
The Germans lost their last coastal defense base protecting Odessa today when Red army forces took the fortress of Ochakov by storm. Ochakov on the Black sea lies only 37 miles from Odessa.
Soldiers Vote Bill Becomes Law Today
Washington, (INS)—President Roosevelt today announced that he was permitting the soldier's vote bill to become law without his signature. At the same time Mr. Roosevelt told congress in a message that "the bill is in my judgment wholly inadequate to assure to service men and women the same opportunity to vote which they would have if they were home."
A 12-year-old, Merrill Kenneth Wolf, has entered Yale University as the youngest student in the school's history. Credited with an IQ of 182, or a mental age of 20, the boy says he wants to get a doctor of philosophy degree at 16. He plans to major in music. When he was four months old, he spoke a complete sentence.

ASTP's Exit Decreases Size of Enrollment
The enrollment of the University of Kansas following the withdrawal of Army Specialized Training Program students is now 3.168. Dr. Lawrence C. Woodruff, registrar, announced today.
Of this number 1,715 are civilian students, the rest being Army, Navy and special aeronautical trainees.
Snodgrass Fills Baptist Pulpit
The Rev. Ernest L, Snoograss, new pastor of the Baptist church, will take as his sermon Sunday morning, "Jesus the Stranger." He was introduced to Lawrence heym tuesday in an interdenominational Sunday School meeting.
In keeping with Palm Sunday, Harold G. Barr of the First Christian church has selected "Ashes and Palm" for the sermon topic of the 10:45 morning worship service which will include communion.
The Rev. Oscar E. Allison of the First Methodist church has selected "Christ's Unfinished Victory" for the morning worship service sermon at 10:50 Sunday morning. At the Unitarian church, Dr. Homer Jack will speak on "The Christian Myth of Resurrection" at 11:00 a.m. "Ride On, Ride On, in Majesty" is the sermon topic of the Rev. Theodore H. Aszman of the First Presbyterian church. This morning worship service will also begin at 11:00 a.m.
A sermon on Confirmation Sunday and the beginning of Holy Week will be given at the Trinity Lutheran church by the Rev. Alfred J. Beil for the morning worship service at 11:00 a.m.
The Rev, C. Fosberg Hughes of the Plymouth Congregational church will discuss the "Triumph of Righteousness" at the 11:00 morning services.
Palm Sunday Vespers will be observed by the 4:00 p.m. Fireside Forum of the Plymouth Congregational church, and at 5:00 p.m. by the Young People's Forum of the First Christian church at Myers hall. The Westminster Vesper Club of the First Presbyterian church will have a Palm Sunday devotional and fellowship meeting at 4:00 p.m.
An Easter Sunrise Service will be sponsored by the Student Christian Federation Easter Sunday, at 7 a.m. It will be held south of Myers hall if the weather permits; otherwise it will be in Myers Chapel.
Reading aloud, the art which it is said, often disappears beyond the elementary grades, will have its chance again, when students meet at 7:30 Tuesday evening in room 103, Green hall for the first weekly reading sessions.
The YWCA is sponsoring an Easter service at 4:30 Tuesday, at Myers hall. All students are invited to attend. Gertrude Pearson will give an Easter reading.
Students Will Start Oral Reading Club
Miss Margaret Anderson, department of speech and drama, will meet informally all students interested in this kind of practice. She asked that those who come Tuesday evening bring something to read aloud, such as short stories, essays, excerpts from novels, poetry or plays.
March Goes Away Like Meek Lamb
Unless a premature April Fool trick turns the sunshine of today into a storm late tonight, March will go out like the traditional lamb.
After providing some of the coldest weather in years for this late in the spring, the mercury climbed again today to melt the few remaining snowdrifts on the campus, and the spring breeze held no hint of the snowstorms which have become regular weekend occurrences this month.
Unusually low temperature readings and more than average precipitation have marked the month's weather charts and prevented students from sending home winter clothing. Predicted for the next few days, however, is weather of a more agreeable type.
Easter Service For All Students To Be Tuesday
An All-Student Easter service under the sponsorship of the YWCA will be at 4:30 Tuesday afternoon in the chapel of Myer's hail.
The service will feature the reading "Pontius Pilate" given by Mrs Thomas Pearson, 1336 Mass. Organ and violin music on the Easter theme will complete the program.
The service is open to all students Betty Pyle, program leader of the YWCA, said today.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Practical Joking Is April First Custom Over Entire World
know."
"The first of April, some do say,
Is set apart for All Fool's day;
But why the people call it so,
Nor I, nor they themselves, do know."
Poor Robin's Almanac. April Fool's Day, unique in its consecration to practical joking, is of uncertain origin. The prevalence of the custom over all the world and the close coincidence of the days set apart for it seem to indicate a very early origin.
Beginning in France with the adoption of the Gregorian calendar in 1564 is the most likely explanation. Formerly, the French followed a custom of paying formal visits to friends on April 1. With the calendar revision, these were changed to January 1, but mock visits were continued on the former date, especially to "those who might forget the new order of things."
India has a custom of befooling people by sending them on fruitless and foolish errands at the feast of Huli, which ends March 31. A general festival was celebrated April 1 in Great Britain in ancient times, and from the beginning of the 18th century, it was a common custom. It may also be a relic of the festivities held for the vernal equinox from March 25 to April 1.
The Scotch have done for April Fools' Day what the Irish did for Potatoes. Although the custom did not originate in Scotland, the Highlanders made the most of it. Making April-fools of people is called "hunting the gowk" or cuckoo. The French also have an appropriate name for the April-fool. The poisson d'avril or April fish means actually a young fish, one easily caught.
A favorite trick of the Scotch is to send the April gowk from house to house bearing a message of supposed importance. Often it reads, "This is the first day of April, Hunt the gowk another mile." This continues until some one gives the trick away or until he catches on.
Tomorrow is April Fools' Day. The seriousness of war will prevent some nonsense, but practical jokers will not forget their one special day entirely, and to be forewarned.is to be forearmed.-R.T.

Rock Chalk Talk

Mystery of the week: Doings of Theta hell week have every one baffled. Only evidence that there is such a thing in progress is the haggard countenances of Theta pledges. Rumor has it, though, that Annette Bigelow really wowed 'em the other night with her rendition of a ditty entitled "Sweet Violets." Tradition says that actives never laugh at pledges' performances during hell week, but straight faces just couldn't be maintained at "Big's" song.

Don't see much anymore: V-12 physical ed. classes have suddenly lost their appeal. An announcement was sent around at the request of Miss Hoover telling the boys not to look through the cracks into the girls' gym anymore. Morale has hit such a low since this announcement was made that the Navy is seriously thinking of putting windows between the gyms.
Jollife Hall had a hell week of its own last week, when the girls took to playing tricks on one another. The housemother and the house president, Betty Barnes, took it all in their stride with a sickly smile, and claimed that the ingenuity of the pranksters was unsurpassed.

Prof. Lynn Discusses Blue Stocking Period
Picturing the aftermath of the English Blue Stocking literary period, Prof. Margaret Lynn of the English department told English majors yesterday afternoon of the work of Frances Wright, Frances Trollope, and Harriet Martineau.
The term "blue stocking" was derived from the appearance of Benjamin Stillingfleet in the popular conversational assemblies of English society of the eighteenth century in ordinary everyday blue worsted stockings and came to be applied to a woman affecting literary taste and learning, Professor Lynn explained. Miss Wright, Mrs. Trollope, and Miss Martineau were products of this period and each visited America to write about it.
Following the lecture, tea was served in room 313 of Fraser hall with Prof. Lulu Gardner of the English department presiding at the tea table. Mrs. John E. Hankins was chairman of the tea committee, and Prof. Sara Laird of the English department is chairman of the department's general social committee. Prof. Helen R. Hoopes of the English department is chairman of the

Jean Richardson and Cricket Stenger, freshmen, started the whole thing by putting crackers in Fran Clay's bed, and short-sheeting all the beds on the porch. Tricks progressed from this old stuff to putting ice cubes in the beds, coating the door knobs with shoe polish, taking slats out of the beds, locking the front door so that guests had to stand outside for hours, hiding pictures of boy friends, changing everyone's clothes around, and fixing the front door bell so that it rang for about a half hour in the middle of the night.
Marjorie Hedrick and Lennie Moe fixed a life-sized dummy in jeans and a plaid shirt and hung it from the bathroom ceiling, then went downstairs crying, "Oh, she couldn't stand it any longer! What have we done?"
Great confusion reigned when some one locked all the doors, stole everyone's keys, and the master key was found to be locked up in one of 'the rooms. The situation was remedied, after about 8 hours of anguish, when one of the doors was removed and the master key retrieved. V-12 Charlie Nash of PT7 became the unsuspecting victim when several of the girls fixed cookies with alum in the iceing and served them to him with tea.

Pharmacist Mates Report To Great Lakes Station
Professor Sandelius opened the discussion with consideration of political issues of national and international importance. Dean Twente discussed the necessity of an extended adult education program in the post-war period.
William H. Collier, pharmacist mate third class; Stuart P. Davis, pharmacist mate third class; and Francis T. Fox, pharmacist mate second class of the Naval Training Station left Lawrence recently to report for duty in the Naval hospitals at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station.
KU Mail Keeps Pace Of Old Rates
Increased postal rates apparently have made little difference in the quantity of mail sent out from the campus according to R. C. Abraham, superintendent of the University post office.
Sandelius, Twente Discuss Post War
As most of the air mail correspondence is to men overseas and is not affected by the new rates, the additional two cents on this type of postage has not had any detrimental effect on the number of letters sent out. Although the campus post office handles a great deal of parcel post business, the one cent per parcel increase in this line has not decreased the number of packages sent out. Very little local mail, which also costs more to send now goes through this branch office. Mr. Abraham said.
Prof. W. E. Sandelius of the political science department and J. W. Twente, dean of the School of Education, participated in a panel discussion of post-war problems last night at Wayndote High School in Kansas City. The panel was sponsored by the Wayndote High School Parent Teachers' Association with Principal J. F. Wellemeyer as chairman.
He also stated that it was too soon to notice the difference on insured mail and money orders, but he thought it probable that many of the latter, especially on small amounts of money, will be sent in the form of bank drafts, which will be slightly less expensive.

Utah Winner Of National Basketball Title
The "wonder" team of the 1944 basketball season, Utah University, winners of the Western division NCAA title, national NCAA championship, may now add another championship crown to their list. For the Rocky Mountain lads last night soared to basketball heights by beating St. Johns 43 to 36 in Madison Square Garden before 18,-125 fans.
The loser of last night's finale won the right to meet the NCAA winner by winning the national invitational tournament, the same tournament in which Utah lost its first game and then accepted a last-minute bid to play at Kansas City. So it was the end of a grand come-back for the youngsters from Utah as they won the title.
The proceeds of the game were $35,000 all of which was turned over to the Red Cross.
For the first 20 minutes the two tournament champions battled it out with little to choose between them. The quintets left the floor at half-time intermission with the score tied at 19 to 19.
The score was tied twice again in the first five and one-half minutes of the final round and then Utah started pulling ahead. The Westerners held a 6-point lead at the 10-minute mark, increased it to nine within the next minute and struck back in the final five minutes after
