The German destroyed the Merzig bridge to prevent a crossing which would put Yanks in position to close in on the vital industrial city of Saarbruecken. The U. S. first and ninth armies, meanwhile, blasted their way to the Roer river along a combined front of at least 11 miles to mount a new threat against Cologne and the Rhineland. Allied positions along most of the western front were pounded by German artillery as the Germans put up a terrific barrage to stop the growing smash against the Roer and Saar river defenses. Germans Hit Strasbourg The liberated city of Strasbourg was pounded on by the Germans from positions across the Rhine, but U.S. seventh army troops driving back from Strasbourg encountered light opposition in a sweeping eight mile advance toward a linkup with the French first army driving north to surround the Germans in the Vosges. Heavy fighting also raged on the center of the Italian front as the U.S. fifth army opposed desperate German attempts to reestablish their position in the Gothic line south of Bologne which were seizes by the Yanks a month ago. The British eighth army, driving toward Faenza, mounted a terrific tank-supported attack against the Faenza-Ravenna highway and hammered other German defenses in the Alvareto sector. Rain Still Bogs Yanks on Levte Russian forces swept through Hungary southwest and northwest of Budapest, seizing two key rail cities. Other Red army columns in Czechoslovakia fought their way to within 20 miles of Presov, key city along the main Nazi supply route through the Carpathians. Rain continued to bog down the Yank drive on Leyte island in the Philippines, but American air forces scored a devastating blast against a reinforcing Jap convoy destroying six vessels. In seven attacks on convoy near Leyte the Yanks have sunk 47 enemy transports and killed an estimated 26,000 Jap soldiers. Lt. John Dyatt Killed In Action on Nov. 7 Lt. Taylor Dyatt, of Kamarado, was killed in action Nov. 7, the War department has announced. He was a squadron leader in the air corps and flew a British-based B-17. Lt. Dyatt held the air medal and oak flare cluster for outstanding service. He attended the University in 1539-40 and 1941-42 and was in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. A member of Sigma Nu fraternity, he entered the service in October, 1943. His engagement to Mary Louise Belcher of Topeka was announced last summer. Miss Belcher was graduated from the School of Fine Arts in 1943. Don't forget the War Bond Drive, Dec. 1-8, and the CVC War Bond dance, Friday, Dec. 8. Albert B. Fall Dies in Texas; Was in Tea Pot Dome Scandal El Paso, Texas — Albert B. Fall, secretary of the interior under the Harding administration, and remembered for his connection with the Teapot Dome oil scandal, died here yesterday at the age of 83. Fall's claim of innocence of receiving a bribe was significant in view of the fact that the same court acquitted Edward Doheny of offering it, yet he (Fall) was found guilty. Senate Passes Flood Control Bill Washington — (INS) — The senate unanimously approved today the amended billion dollar postwar flood control bill providing compromise program for development of the Missouri and Connecticut river valleys. The measure headed immediately for a conference committee which will work out differences between the senate proposals and the house approved version. The bill as passed by the state increases authorization for new projects to 959 billion dollars. The measure is only an authorization of the project and appropriation must be made before they can actually be undertaken in the postwar era. On the Missouri river valley dispute a senate amendment embraced a compromise arrangement by army engineers and a reclamation service concerning jurisdiction and use of water in the lower and upper reaches of the river and its tributaries. Plans to Be Made Tuesday to Organize Winter Sports Club One of the Senate's most bitter opponents of the bill was senator Bennett Clark, of Missouri, who led a fight against the MVA addition to the bill. Gov. Andrew Schoepel has also gone on record against the flood control bill. Kunzelman urged that students interested in these activities should attend the meeting, regardless of whether or not they have their own equipment. The club is planning to take over a part of Fowler shops to be used for the storage and repair of equipment which will be available for student use. The group is also planning to have lessons and instructions for beginners. Plans for a winter sports club of University students will be discussed Tuesday night at a meeting in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building, Lucky Kunzelman and Warren Alexander, co-chairmen of the new group announced this morning. Any student interested in skiing, ice skating, tobagging, or similar winter sports is invited to attend the meeting. First project of the group will probably be the flooding of several tennis courts for ice skating. Other plans will be announced after the meeting Tuesday night. The new organization will have the backing of the department of physical education, under the direction of Prof. F. C. Allen, Kunzelman said. Student Union Activities has agreed to co-operate with the group's plans, Eugenia Hepworth, president, announced. Dr. Ernest Jackh Tells of Escape From Gestapo "I knew at midnight March 17, 1933 that Germany had died, when I heard over the radio that Hitler had come into power," Dr. Ernest Jackch, visiting research professor of Columbia University said this morning in a special interview after his convocation address. Dr. Jackh, who was born in Germany, left that country in 1933 and became a naturalized British subject in 1937. Hitler had attempted to draw him over to the Nazi party in order to use him as "bait" for American opinion because Dr Jackh was so widely known and respected in diplomatic circles in this country. Dr. Jackh however, refused to join the party and thus had to leave Germany because Hitler attempted to have him assassinated. Narrow Escape From Geneva Dr. Jackh remarked that his most narrow escape was in Geneva in 1940 when he was tipped off that Hitler's Gestapo was after him. He spent 14 days working out a way to jump from his seventh window to the street below if his Gestapo came in, and wondering what he would do if Mrs. Jackh, who was with him, would not have the courage to jump too. The Gestapo did not come and plans were made for Dr. Jackh to go with a group of officials, our Ambassador Winant among them, in two buses and escape to England. When asked how he learned to speak English, Dr. Jackh laughed and said he learned through our vice-president, Charles Dawes. Dr. Jackh was sent over here for a time by our Ambassador Houghton to explain his plan for collective security to our administration. He could not speak a word of English so he had (continued to page four) Langer Protests 2 $ \frac{1}{2} $ Hours Against Stettinius Approval Washington — (INS) — Edward R Stettinius, Jr., today held senate confirmation of his cabinet appointment as secretary of state by president Roosevelt. Bronislaw Huberman, renowned Polish violinist, will arrive in Lawrence Sunday and will remain here a day or two following his concert Monday night before proceeding farther with his concert schedule, it has been reported. Monday's concert is the second regular attraction on the University Concert Series. Activity books will admit students. The performance will begin at 8:20 p.m. Monday in Hoch auditorium. Governor and Mrs. Andrew F. Schoepel, and W. F. Turrentine, secretary to the Governor, and his family, will attend the concert, according to word received yesterday by the School of Fine Arts. Huberman has gained international attention as a writer and political theorist also. As early as 1925, he published the book, "My Road to a United Europe," in which he looked upon Hitler as the sure destroyer of the political ideal he set forth. Langer attacked the peaceful 44- year-old secretary as a "representative of Wall street and the House of Morgan." Opinions expressed by students are as follows: Expert Violinist To Arrive Sunday In January 1940, Mr. Huberman played his last European concert at the Grand Opera House in Paris, the proceeds of which were donated to the cause of Polish-French aviation. General Sikorski, long an advocate of close French-Polish relations, was one of the sponsors. Freshman Favor Changes In Course Requirements "I do not think that freshman and sophomore students are ready to decide upon a major, but rather should take general cultural and background courses, including philosophy, psychology, history, English, and a modern language. Often they might choose the wrong field. And, I be- That the majority of freshmen and sophomores seem to favor the six curriculum changes as proposed to the College faculty was made evident today in a student poll. The majority of students interviewed liked the idea of the speech course requirement and the opportunity to choose their major in their sophomore year and go ahead with specific training in their particular choice best of the proposed changes ieve that thirty departmental major fields should be enough."—Marilyn Smart. The changes are to be voted upon at a special meeting Monday of the College faculty. The committee on curriculum and program proposed new courses in English composition and English literature, speech, mathematics, biology, and western civilization and a plan by which students may, in their sophomore year, apply for a special major and direct their studies under proper guidance to training for specific work. "Since I am very interested in radio, and think that there are unlimited opportunities in that field. I would like to major in radio speaking. I believe that this new plan will give more self-assurance to students, in permitting them to originate a major to fit their own needs."—Joy Godbehere. "I think that the new plan is a good one, offering students more choice in major fields. Aviation should be included, and credit should be given for flying hours"'—Dale Dunlap. "Other colleges and universities are broadening their curricula to include specialized courses in radio, aviation and personnel management. I am very much in favor of the new plan, and believe that KU is wise in including such courses."—DuMont Reed. "Personnel management is the field in which I am 'terested and I hope that under this new plan I will be able to major in. that field."—Rowena Robe.

"Those, having receipt numbers over 2800, may obtain their books later, meanwhile they may continue to use their receipts as passes, Mr. Calvin said." TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1944 KANSAN COMMENTS The Editors Say: Unfortunate as the publication of the Sour Owl was, the Daily Kansan believes the severe action taken by the chancellor was even more unfortunate. By the time "children" reach college age the whip hand of discipline no longer engenders fear, but rather the spirit of revenge in them. This was only too clearly shown in another most fortunate occurrence four years ago when students rioted after they failed to win a holiday following a K.U. victory over Kansas State. The Daily Kansan has no intention of standing up for the Sour Owl, but it does believe that the punishment meted out to the staff is too severe and incurs a hatred against, rather than a willingness to cooperate with the University in the future. Simply because a freshman was on the staff of the Sour Owl he should not be kept from extra-curricular organizations and employment for the rest of his four years. Furthermore, there were contributors to the Sour Owl who are not being punished at all. We have no fault to find with Dean Werner. He is well-liked and would probably never attempt to interfere with activities in his advisory capacity. But the fact that his appointment was handed down like a slap in the face, as if it were a discipline measure, leaves a taste sourer than the Sour Owl. When the student body ratified the ASC constitution two years ago, it gave the Student Council the rights to "supervise all extra-curricular activities." Only if Dean Werner does absolutely no more advise and aid students in activities he will not be encroaching upon the right the students gave the Council? Students are naturally suspicious of the word "advise" because they have seen others in such a capacity give more than advice. As students in a state university of a democratic nation we are opposed and always will be opposed to any administration which limits the students' privilege of learning how to govern themselves. We think that the chance to make mistakes while trying to govern ourselves is more important than the mistakes themselves, no matter how big they may be. We most heartily agree with the ex-president of the University of Texas, whom the Texas students are fighting for, when he says, "If a man has an idea, the University is the place to try it out." Only we believe the students should have the right to try out their ideas as well as the administration. The act of placing Dean Werner in an advisory capacity over student activities was not, in itself, inherently repugnant to students, but the manner in which it was done creates antagonism where there should be cooperation. Letters to the Editor To the Editor of the Daily Kansan: To the Editor of the Daily Mail, In his letter, published on Nov. 30, Irate Student argued that the University administration should shoulder responsibility for the Sour Owl affair because it had not appointed a censor although it had been "forewarned" that a Sour Owl was to be published under the auspices of the ASC. Just to keep the record straight, Irate Student should be informed that the Sour Owl, when it was published by Sigma Delta Chi, was not censored. No faculty member or administrative officer read the material before it was published. To the Editor of the Daily Kansam: Elmer Beth When the Sour Owl was issued, we all read it, and, I dare say, most of us even laughed at the jokes in it. But when the Lily-whites League got on the scent and our supreme pedants, the whitest and purest lilies of the League ordered an investigation, we all nodded our heads and agreed that the magazine was filth. Such pretension hasn't occurred since the Jap peace envoys visited our capital just before Pearl Harbor. The real issue is not the Sour Owl, and the question of its moral turpitude; the real issue is whether we want all of our student activities controlled by the supreme authorities who, in the past have not acted with the democratic ideals for which they apparently stand, but have used the same despotic methods which they are using in the present issue. I doubt not the sincerity of the ex-Dean of Men, and him I'll give credit for being what he stands for, but I strongly question the motives and reasons given by the higher authorities for assuming control over student affairs. By this action, they have taken upon themselves the power to control every phase of our student life. If we let them get away with it now, we will be signing away all rights to student government as long as such forces retain their power. If we allow existing conditions to remain, we can be sure of many restrictions in student government and other activities, and I'm sure that letters such as this will soon cease to be published in our closely-censored Kansan. If you don't believe me, ask any of the upperclassmen what happened to the boy who used his freedom of speech to recite a poem about this supreme being outside his office two years ago when the students were striking for a decent Christmas vacation, and then form your own opinion.

BROWN Rock Chalk Talk By ANNELLA HAMMETT We always knew there was something about a lawyer, but the case of Doris Dixon, Alpha Chi, versus Watkins Memorial hospital proves that a law book plus a bit of resourcefulness will do wonders. "Dixon" was confined to said sanctuary as a result of a tussle with a Siamese cat. ** The story goes that "Dixon" wanted to come home to the comforting arms of her sisters, but not. The hospital was stubborn. So she took up her law book, and leafed through the pages, pointing to passage after passage dealing with the fact it is illegal to confine a person against his will. "See, I can sue you! It's illegal. You let me go, or I'll sue you!" Nobody knows what happened, but she was home the next morning.

It seems to be the accepted thing that our great white professors love to call on poor abused students at most inopportune moments, but even so.

FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1944 Sooners Close Big Six Season With Huskers Defending champions from last year, Coach Dewey "Snorter" Luster's Oklahomaans can also take the 1944 flag outright by tying or defeating the adolescent but sprightly, Scarlet team. But if Nebraska should put over an upset comparable to her recent astounding 24-20 win from Missouri, the Sooners would be relegated to a tie for the Big Six bunting with Iowa State. A glance at the Nebraska roster incites admiration for Coaches Ad Lewendowski and Art Stark. Seven men on the starting Cornhusker eleven are 17-year old freshmen. Ten of the eleven Nebraska starters are from the state of Nebraska. There are no transfers from other colleges. Nebraska has no campus navy unit. Halfback Buzz Hollins and Tackle Lyle Hops are the only available letterman and Kops, too, is only 17. Norman, Okla., Dec. 1—Oklahoma will try for an achievement in the 24th annual Oklahoma-Nebraska game Saturday at Oklahoma City that no Sooner team has ever gained—the winning of two consecutive Big Six football championships. In spite of youthful Nebraska's upset of Missouri and her 35-0 mauling of Kansas State in the rain and snow last Saturday, the Sooners are bigger, more experienced, will be playing at home and consequently are clearly favored. However if Oklahoma regards the game lightly, Nebraska has the fight, the hustle and the plays to win despite the odds. The Sooners hold a thin weight edge over the Searlets, 181 to 180 pounds to the man. The hefty Nebraska backfield of Hollins, Bill Betz, Joe Kessler and Junior Colomy outweighs the Sooner starting backfield 21 pounds to the man, 185 to 164 pounds. However the Oklahoma line sharply out-heltes Nebraska's 192 to 177, and it here the game may be decided. KKG Leads Teams In Intramural Points; A D Pi Is Top Scorer Kappa Kappa Gamma is still leading in intramural points this year with 178 points, a tabulation of the tennis, badminton and volleyball results indicates. The IWW team is coming in a close second with 166 points, Corbin hall is third with 145 and the Alpha Delta Pi's are in fourth place with $137\frac{1}{2}$ points. The other teams are Chi Omega $136\frac{1}{2}$ points, Pi Beta Phi; 135; Kappa Alpha Theta; 124; Alpha Chi Omega; 120; Gamma Phi Beta $121\frac{1}{2}$; Alpha Micron Pi; 104; DeltaGamma; 102; Independents, 95; Sigma Kappa; 71; Watkins hall, 65; Foster hall, 58; Miller hall 51; and Harmon Co-op. 44. Lucille Land, Alpha Delta Pi, has earned 46 points to lead the list of scores of intramural individual points. Mary Morrill, Kappa, is next with 41 points, and Marjorie Free, Kappa, is third with 38 points. The other players who have earned recognition in individual scores are Pat Sloan, AO Pi; 35; Lavonne Jacobson, IWW; 33; Barbara Winn, Phi Pi; 32; Bobby McCluggage, Gamma Phi; 32; Kathryn O'Leary, Theta; 31; Mimi Nettles, Chi Omega, 29; Caroline Morrisr, Sigma Kappa, 25; Marita Lenski, IND, 23; Audrey Harris, Alpha Chi, 20; Joyce Hartwell, Deltama, 19; June Ashlock, Foster 19;orie Kaff, Watkins hall, Harmon Go-op, Sportorials By EARL BARNEY, KANSAN SPORTS EDITOR Crowds pouring into Baltimore today for the annual Army-Navy game tomorrow afternoon aren't too sure who is going to win the contest. For that matter, no body is. The two teams are so totally different that any sort of a comparative analysis would fail for lack of consistent support, and then how often do such "comparative" tests actually prove true. Whether a Navy line that has yielded a negative total of yards rushing time and time again, even when losing games, will be able to hold down Army's array of fleet backs which have gone virtually untouched against all kinds of opposition this year is a moot question. But what would be a column without a prediction, and so your writer takes the big step and names Army the winner tomorrow. Perhaps our only reason for this selection is our firm belief that a good defense is a strong offense, especially in football. Again we say, Army over Navy, and by 20 points. *** Personally . . . we are wondering whether the Big Six is going to turn into a small man's conference during the coming basketball season. "Phog" Allen, our genial basketball coach has stated that his varsity five this year will be small but fast, and will probably average about six feet. Now word comes from Oklahoma that the Sooners are going us one better and will be even shorter. Probable starters for the Oklahomans this year include, Harold "Scooter" Hines, a member Take the five foul limit, for instance. Suppose this rule had been in effect when Charley Black was at KU. The stellar center of the ever-victorious $^{42}-^{43}$ iron five used to foul out in almost every game, and at that would ring the gong for 15 or 16 points before leaving. Certainly his total would have been higher had he been permitted five instead of four personals during a game. of the Sooner,' 42 team who recently was discharged from the navy, and Bill Whaley, a transfer from Peperdine college of California. Hines stands five feet six and Whaley five feet eleven. That is why we feel that individual totals during each game will average higher than in other years, for the player will have more opportunity to score, and have no fear of leaving the game early and not playing the ball. It'll be different . . . Fans are going to see a different type of basketball on courts this winter beyond any reason of a doubt. Two new rules, the five foul limit and unlimited substituting, will have a lot to do with it. While unlimited substitution is not so sweeping a change as permitting a player to commit five personal fouls, it nevertheless will have an effect on the calibre of play. Coaches can now plan such styles of play using an offensive player and a defensive player, as is done in football. More possibilities undoubtedly will be realized later. Hankins' Article Published in Bulletin In conclusion, curriculum is discussed from the point of view "that the attainment of an integrated view of life should be a primary aim of the liberal arts college, and that academic studies, however excellently taught, are not complete unless the student gains some perception of their importance in the whole field of knowledge and in his own life." In approaching the problem the curriculum may be arranged in three separate groups: (1) work which involves primarily the acquirement of manual skills; (2) work which is designed to prepare the student in a specific profession but which requires a relatively high degree of mental effort and intellectual discipline; (3) work which is primarily cultural, preparing the student for a vocation in the general sense that it develops his mind and helps him to understand the world about him. Prof. John E. Hankin's article, "What Should the Colleges Do?" has been published in the autumn edition of the American Association of University Professors Bulletin. The article is a report, which was originally made to a college faculty in 1942 by a committee on "aims and purposes of a liberal arts college." The practical problem of a liberal arts college versus a professional school and the professional and vocational courses which may become a part of the college curriculum is discussed from the viewpoint that in college we are "learning to live while learning to make a living." Creighton University's "Helen of Troy" will be chosen Dec. 1 at Interfraternity dance. - * * The OPA has promised more euts in the price of clothing. 10; and Joan Lippelman, Corbin hall, 8 points. De Gaule Is EnRoute to Russia London—IONS)—General Charles De Gaule, chief of the French provi- cial government, was enroute from Stalingrad to Moscow by rail today for his visit with Premier Joseph Stalin after his plane was forced down by thick weather. De Gaulle Is EnRoute to Russia Mixer Meeting to Be At 6 Sunday Night A mixer Union meeting has been planned by the Student Religious council Sunday night to give students a chance to get acquainted. The meeting will begin at 6 p.m., in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building and is open to all students. The Religious council, which is composed of representatives from all religious organizations on the campus, has asked Dr. N. P. Sherwood of the department of bacteriology to lead the group discussion. Refreshments will be served, and mixer games will furnish recreation. Marideen Visscher will have charge of devotions. Idabelle Bradley heads the Union meetings committee of the council which has charge of the meeting. Other members of the committee are June Montgomery, Beth Russell, and Mrs. E. P. Addy. Several union meetings will be held during the semester, Miss Erwin said. DR. JACKH--- (continued from page two) an interpreter with him. Approves Dumbarton Oaks Conference Dr. Jackh emphasized the fact that Germany is "landlocked." She is the center of a continent, and if she will accept her fate as such and cooperate with the East and the West, without military ambitions, she will be a strong nation. Dr. Jackh said that there can only be a world organization of which the United States, England, Russia, France, and possibly China are the controlling power, after this war. He said that Women to Have Nineteen Teams The teams in division I are Corbin hall, Alpha Omocron Pi, Alpha Delta Pi, Watkins hall, and Gamma Phi Beta. Nineteen teams will participate in the women's intramural basketball season and will be divided into four divisions, Miss Ruth Hoover intramural director, said today. Division IV, the smallest division of the four, includes the Chi Omega, Harman Co-op, Independents, and the Alpha Chi Omega teams. Division II includes the Delta Gamma team, Locksley hall, Tipperary hall, Kappa Kappa Gamma, and Miller hall. In division III the L.W.W.'s, Foster hall, Pi Beta Phi, Sigma Kappa, and the Kappa Alpha Theta teams are listed. The first game of the basketball season is scheduled for Dec. 12. (continued from page two) (continued from page two) I think that the new plan will offer opportunities to other students. I think that more courses should be included in the School of Business." —John Jackson. the conference at Dumbarton Oaks is definitely a revolutionary start in the right way toward the right end. He also said that the old theory of balance of power could not be applied, there must be a cooperative existence between the East and the West with Germany cooperating in between them. "It is the grandest thing in the world. You can now take more things in which your talents lie."— Helen Graham. FRESHMEN---- "I think both are very good ideas about choosing your own major and required speech course."—Ruth Cawood. "I think the required speech course is an excellent idea. It should be required of all students, because speech gives a person self-confidence."—Delorice Davis. "I think the speech course is a very good idea. Success in anything depends on self-confidence. There couldn't be a more practical subject than speech. The general biology course is also very good."—Lorraine Carpenter.

C Allies Advance On All Fronts International News Servicee German artillery aimed a thunderous barrage against the Yankheld bridge across the Saar river in Saarlautern today, but failed to stop Yank troops pouring across to the east banks where they had seized half of the city by noon today. Third army troops seized the sole remaining bridge across the Saar in a swift advance which surprised the Nazis and prevented its destruction. Spectacular advances on practically all of the fronts marked the day's fighting. Concluded was a British second army drive to seize possession of the entire west bank of the Maas river, and U.S. first army capture of the town of Brandenburg southeast of Hurtgen in a cleanup of Nazis in the Roer river valley. Opposition at Julich Ninth army troops encountered stiff opposition in the eastern outskirts of Julich, but a weakened German line was noted as they drove across the Inde river to clear the western portion of Inden of the enemy. Other Yank forces captured Lucherberg after brisk fighting, while still others raced forward beyond Luchen to reach the great Hitler highway between Aachen and Cologne. On the Italian front British eighth army gains were limited in a drive against Faenza, while in Hungary three powerful Soviet armies swept forward on as many fronts and at one point on the east of Budapest reached a point less than 70 miles from Austria. Columns of the U. S. seventh army and the French first army tightened their giant pinecers around German positions in the Vosges mountains and latest reports said the Nazi escape gap was only 10 miles wide. Limited Gains in Italy BUY U.S. WAR BONDS Nearly 38 hours of rain reported Rubber boots, slickers, and rain hats were donned today by K. U. students as rain has continued to fall. According to a statement by Prof. C. J. Posey, there has been 2.6 inches of rain in the past 48 hours, with temperatures ranging from 32 to 39 degrees. Torrential rains continued to balk the advance of American forces against the Japs on Leyte island in the Philippines. Nearly 3 Inches of Rain Reported ASC Will Have Meeting For All University Students All University students, regardless of whether or not they are members of the All-Student Council, are urged to attend a meeting of the council tomorrow night at 7 o'clock in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building, Jack Button, secretary of the council announced this morning. "Important plans for future action will be decided upon," Button said. Although the council secretary made no statement as to what kind of action would be taken up, it is probable the recent trouble over the publication of the "Sour Owl" will be discussed. Air Delegates Make Agreement Chicago—(INS)—Delegates to the international civil aviation conference tackled a tentative draft of the "main agreements" today. The draft represents what is left of the original proposals as submitted when the conference started deliberation over a month ago. The agreement was finished last night, but as it neared its present form an increasing number of points was dropped. Among the more important of these was that bearing on "freedoms of the air" over which the British and other delegations split. The question of how much freedom of the air will be permitted in the postwar world now is embodied in two separate documents apart from the main agreement. One grants only the privileges of uninterrupted flight over another nation's soil with landing only for traffic. The other document grants three additional freedoms of the air including the right of commercial entry in accordance with wishes of the U.S. delegation to the conference. Sherwood Addresses All Religious Groups At Union Meeting Idabelle Bradley, College junior, headed the committee which planned the union meeting. Addressing an assembly of student religious groups at a union meeting in the Kansas room last night, Dr. Noble P. Sherwood of the bacteriology department chose as his subject "Medicine, War and Religion." He emphasized the importance of a religious faith strengthened by a knowledge of science and the need of courage to stand up for one's convictions. More than 170 persons representing 11 organizations crowded the Kansas room to join in singing and recreational games led by Violet Conard, Education junior, and to participate in the devotions prepared by Marideen Visscher, Danforth scholar, Margaret Snodgrass, Fine Arts sophomore, and Betty Jeanne Whitney, Pharmacy junior. A solo, "Arise, O Lord" by Wayne Funk, ASTP, preceded Dr. Sherwood's talk. The following groups were represented; YWCA, YMCA, Intervarsity Christian Fellowship, and the Ninth Street Baptist, Baptist, Christian Methodist, Congregational, Presbyterian, Catholic, and Lutheran churches. Game at Washburn Tonight Opens Jayhawker 1944-45 Court Season With All New Men in Starting Lineup Band Fems Don't Mind Uniforms Don't tell us women are being conscripted. No, those are just K.U. women in the uniform of the University band. Owing to the man shortage, there are approximately 35 women in the band this year. They battle the elements and trudge across the hill at the early hour of 7:30 a.m. to appear for marching practice. They freeze nibly at the football games for the sake of schol spirit. All the girl members of the band are wearing the regulation men's uniform. Naturally, the alterations that have to be made add up to the millions of inches; all the alternations are temporary in order to "make room" for the next person. So far, no one boy or girl has been turned down because there was not a uniform of the right size. Now we come to the all improptant question of the women's attitude toward the uniforms. It seems that they have reacted well and really enjoy wearing the crimson and blue. This favorable attitude may be due to three or four reasons. First, and most obvious, is the fact that most girls are crazy about uniforms. Second, is the fact that the uniforms are so bright they attract attention, and that always did please the women (especially now when the ratio of men to women is dwindling so fast). The last reason is that the slacks help break the wind at those twenty below games. (P.S. This may be just hearsay but they say 90 per cent of the gals wear long red flan-nels, too!) CVC Opens Drive For Sixth War Loan Today will begin the University War Bond Drive in co-operation with the Sixth War Loan. Members of the Co-ed Volunteer Corps are in charge of booths in Fraser hall and Frank Strong hall in which war bonds and stamps may be bought throughout the week from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Beverly Jane Waters has announced that the War Bond dance, which will bring the drive to a close Friday night, will be held in the Military Science building instead of Hoch auditorium as previously announced. The dance will be from 9:15 p.m. until 12 p.m. Candidates for queen, who will be elected at the dance on the basis of the total number of votes cast then, will be announced in the Kansan tomorrow. Each ten cent war stamp bought at the dance will entitle the purchaser to one vote for the queen. Higher denominations in bonds purchased will entitle the buyer to more votes. Admittance to the dance will be a 25 cent war stamp. The 1944-45 season of the Kansas Jayhawk basketball five will open at 8 this evening when the Crimson and Blue tangle with the Washgurn Ichabods in W.M.U.'s Whiting field house in Topeka. Ten men who have never before lettered at either school will be in there when the whistle blows tonight, giving the court a juvenile-like look. Washburn coach Dee Errickson considers his prizer start to be Gib Stramel, six-foot two-inch from Hays high school. Other Blue fixtures will be Bob Ulrich, Wichita East, at one guard and Lloyd Krone, Chanute, at the other. Forwards are Bob Evans of Ruseill and Jack Dillard, Dodge City. Lettermen Will Not Start ...Cheerleaders to Go to Game Jayhawk coach "Phog" Allen will not start any of his four holdover letterman this evening, Charlie Moffett not starting on account of injuries received in the K.U.-M.U. game on Thanksgiving day. Getting the startling call are Owen Peck and Norman Carlson at Forwards; Jim Brilley at Center; Everett Hill, Lawrence high school star last winner, and Kirk Scott, player last year who was hampered by injuries. Scott is a fomer Newton high school flash. Allen will take virtually the entire squad to Topeka for the game, and intends to give most of the squad a chance to prove themselves under fire. The lineups: The Kansas cheerleaders and a few of the Jay James will also make the trip, and will attend a mixer at the Chocolate Shop for alumni and friends immediately following the game.

Tuberculosis Drive Will Start Tomorrow Place: Whiting field house. Timeeff 8:00 p.m. Plans for the annual student tuberculosis Christmas seal drive which will begin tomorrow will be discussed at a meeting of campaigners tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building, Eugenia Hepworth, chairman of the drive, has announced. Mrs. Seba Eldridge, chairman of the Douglas County Tuberculosis and Health association will outline the program to student representatives. The drive on the campus is being sponsored by the All-Student Council, under the direction of the public relations committee, of which Miss Hepworth is head. Miss Joie Stapleton assistant professor of physical education, is assisting with the student drive. Dr. E. L. Trecee has charge of faculty contributions. Seals will go on sale tomorrow in the cafeteria of the Memorial Union building. They will be sold in the organized houses by representatives appointed by the public relations committee. TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS MONDAY, DECEMBER 4, 19 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Youth Movement Leader Inducted Into Air Corps Upon the recent admission of Harris Wofford, Jr., into the army air forces, Thomas Hughes of Carleton college, Minn. has been elected president of the Student Federalist Union, an affiliate of Clarence Streit's Federal Union, Inc. Hughes duty will be to carry on the important work of the union, which is one of the few U. S. youth movements of recent years that didn't spring from left-wing promptings. The student group, which celebrated its first anniversary as a national organization on Armistice day, is made up of several thousand students from some 102 high schools and colleges. The purpose of the group is so to influence all post war planning that a third world was will not result. To accomplish their purpose, Student Federalist members have set up as their three goals the attainment of 100,000 student members, 30,000 teacher members, and 25,000 student leaders trained in summer camps. The organization has established regional headquarters in 10 sections of the country and national headquarters in Washington, D.C. The plan for a Student Federalist Union originated with Wofford, who, early in 1942, head Clarence Streit talk over the radio about a federal union of mankind. The idea made sense to the 15-year-old boy, and he decided that his generation should be a powerful factor in such a union. The first student organization was made up of his friends at Scarsdale high school in New York. Soon chap- ters sprang up in 20 near-by schools and the campaign spread. The next step was the publishing of a monthly newspaper, which today reaches 40,000 readers. The publication explains the purpose of the group and invites students everywhere to join. Upon graduation from high school, Wofford, president of the union, made a nation-wide speaking tour and organized new chapters in 50 high schools and colleges. On March 31, delegates from 75 school groups met at Columbia university for their first national meeting, and delegates declared their 100 per cent support of a strong world federation. Of the philosophy behind the student group, Wofford said, "After a great war like this, there comes a brief time when world affairs are in a period of flux, and are malleable to the extent that the world can be molded into any form. If the world fails to make use of the opportunity this brief period of flux provides, affairs will go back to normal and will not be malleable until heated up in the crucible of a third world war."—D.M.

Some appreciative Music Appreciation student wrote the following ode to Miss Cass, Fine Arts School, on the blackboard before she entered class: Sources in Washington, who are supposed to be "in the know," say that the Russians withdrew because they were not informed about the invitations to the conference officially, nor were the names of the countries to which the Soviet took exception mentioned. They say that the Russians feel that there is no "mutual confidence" among the great powers of the postwar planners. Miss Cass is my instructor I shall always flunk She maketh me to sit down and take dictation. And so we must wait, for no indication has been made as to where or when Russia will be willing to talk world aviation.

Russia had known for six weeks who was going to attend the conference, and had even appointed her own delegation. Why then, did she decide against attending the conference at the last minute? Some say that Russia had not been enthusiastic about the right of planes of any nation to fly over the territory of another and land to refuel, a doctrine which the United States and Britain do favor. Others believe that a main reason is that Russia is opposed to the British plan for an all-powerful international air commission, a plan to which the United States is also opposed. The state department had counted on Russia to help defeat the plan. Russia Bows Out From Aviation Conference The question of what sort of policy the postwar world should adopt on aviation, and how the postwar international airlines should be allotted and regulated was to be answered at a meeting of the International Civil Aviation Conference, headed by Assistant Secretary Adolph A. Berle, Jr., in Chicago, a few weeks ago. Three days before the conference, however, Russia withdrew, stating that countries such as Switzerland, Portugal, and Spain had been invited, and these countries had conducted a pro-Fascist policy hostile to the Soviet Union, for many years. visional air routes, to be flown by private lines as soon as the war permits, could be mapped and allotted, and technical matters of standard controls for traffic could be worked out at the conference. The settlement of the major issues, however, must wait for Russia, The British want a system of world control under an international commission, with authority to divide up routes and regulate schedules. The United States wants "freedom of the air," or 140,000 miles of global Editor's Note: All "Letters to the Editor" must be signed by the editor upon request, but the editor must know who wrote it. All letters must be limited to 250 words. Letter to the Editor "No seminary of learning is instituted in order to be incorporated, but the corporate character is conferred to subserve the purposes of education," said Chief Justice Marshall in his famous McCulloch v. Maryland decision. Translated, this might read, "No university is established to be only an institution as such, but rather, is given this power that it may be secondary to and better serve the purposes of education." To the Editor of the Daily Kansan: Education for whom? One might suspect that it were for the students who happen to be attending the "seminary of learning." Is the sacred sacred institution of the university as it is and will be, more important than the development of the individual personalities of students in leadership and civic responsibilities? In the end, is the University of Kansas judged by the publicity stories it turns out, or by the lives and actions of the men and women who have received their training here? Only a mistaken sense of values could choose the first answer. Chancellor Malott was right when he said, "Failure in student leadership is a failure upon the part of the entire University." What has the University done to develop that leadership? Has it asked the opinion of a student board on proposed curriculum changes? Has it encouraged air routes under the treaset of competition, and an international air authority with only limited powers. The United States has stated that there would be no postwar monopoly, but rather that the United States, when the war permits, would make transport planes which other nations need to have available. Americans are worried lest their immense technological advantage be scaled down, and with it the supremacy won by our military transport system during the war. And isn't this crippling of United States air development what Britain wants, until its commercial air force can be built up to equality? -C.S.

Season's end saw the 1943 champion re-enthroned as the most powerful team on the circuit. This is the way the conference lines up School Won Lost Tied school Won Lost 1 Oklahoma 4 0 1 Lowa State 3 1 1 Missouri 2 1 2 Nebraska 2 3 0 Kansas 1 4 0 Kansas State 1 4 0 Kansas State In Saturday's game Oklahoma held the Cornhuskers scorele and without first downs until after the second half was underway. A 45-yard run by Buzz Hollins put a little life in the dragging Nebraska team. First Half Was All for Sooners An intercepted pass stopped this first scoring threat, but in only six plays after Nebraska again got their hands on the ball they tallied their first six points. The first half went to the Sooners all the way. Mixing passes from the hand of Derald Lebow, with plenty of hard running, they battered through the Nebraska line for 25 points by half-time. The other two sooner touchdowns came soon after the opening of the third quarter. Nebraska Trounced Sooner Seconds Nebraska Trounced Sooner Seconds Having piled up the comfortable lead of 31 points, Coach Dewey Luster sent in the second and third strings to take the knocks. Coach Ad Lewandowski's Cornhuskers gave the youngsters such a battle that the Sooner regulars soon had to come back onto the field to save the game. A determined Cornhusker drive was stopped on the Oklahoma 3-yard line only after three consecutive plays from that spot. Lebow scored one touchdown running and tossed the pass to end, Merle Kindin, for another. Tommy Meason, in for Lebow, threw one pass to end, Wooten, and carried one across himself. The other score was on a 20-yard run after a faked lateral by Homer Sparkman, blocking back. Prof. Beth Judges J. C. Beauty Contest Prof. Elmer F. Beth has been judging beauty for the past week-end.

Job Hitler Crystalized Need for World Unity Dr. Jackh Declares sad. Dr. Jackh spoke before students in the English room of the Union. At the present time, he said, the German people hate the United States and Great Britain more than they fear the Russians. It is impossible for them to understand why we, as an Anglo-Saxon nation, are fighting Germany. Dr. Ernest Jackh, special lecturer of Columbia university, told students, faculty, and guests at the social science coffee Friday that there is a much greater need for world unity than ever before. "In this respect we are indebted to the satanism of Hitler for having crystallized the need for world cooperation," he said. "Many people wonder why the Germans keep fighting when they know they are defeated." Dr. Jackh said, "but they should know the German people follow Hitler with as much fanaticism as the Japs follow the son of heaven, Hirohito. The German financial genius actually believes in the divinity and messianic mission of Hitler." Hitler Forces a Broader Outlook Dr. Jackh believes there should be a greater chance for the peace of this war to last than the last. The peace of the League of Nations did not succeed because neither we nor Europe were global minded. In the present crisis, Hitler has forced us to accept the broader outlook. "Turkey has held a red light neutrality in this war," said Dr. Jackh, in his convocation address Friday morning. Dr. Jackh who has been very closely associated with the Turkish government and Turkish people over a long period of years, believes that the Turks made a wise choice when they dissolved the Ottoman empire and accepted their fate as a small but powerful nation who could never control the seas or entertain any military ambitions. Turkey Is Drawbridge of Europe He compared Turkey to a drawbridge which if it had been opened to the Germans in this war, as it was in World War I, this war would not last a predicted 40 months but could have gone on 40 years. This would have been possible because the Russians would have had to concentrate the major part of their forces in stopping the German advance through Turkey and the campaign the Russians did launch would not have been carried out.

Strong patrol action by Yanks south of Bologna forced the Nazis into defensive fighting after their thrust last week to reestablish their Gothic line position. Allied air forces from British and Italian bases continued saturation raids to neutralize Nazi rail, communication, and industrial centers, as the Russians expanded their offensive in southwestern Hungary to within 65 miles of the Austrian border and 32 miles south of Budapest. U. S. Third army troops beat down savage counter attacks to gain control of the entire city of Saarlautern, one of two points at which they have already crossed the Saar river on a 16-mile front. Battling GI's also were threatening the industrial city of Saarbrucken, only $6\frac{1}{2}$ miles beyond the Yank line. The Americans First and Ninth armies in Germany east of Aachen and Geilenkirchen consolidated their gains before the Roer river while the American seventh army at the southern end of the western front drove ahead 20 miles south of Strasbourg in a drive to link up with the first French army and surround the Germans in the Vosges mountains. Crafton's Play Stars Experienced Cast "The all-girl cast of 'Tune in Yesterday' is one of the best and most experienced to appear in a University play in a number of years," said Prof. Allen Craften, playwright and director of the play which is to be presented in Fraser theater, Dec. 12 and 13. Included in the final cast are Shirley Corlett as Hope Jellison, Sarah Heil as Opal Oswalt, Roberta Sue McCluggage as Dorley, Virginia Davis as Jerry Reid, Dorothy Savage as Beatrice Pearce, Kathleen Jones as Lonnie Markover, Cornelia Ann Miller as Bobbie, Gloria Goff as Rosa Lea, Joan McCrysal as Juanita Mills, Margie Johnson as Rowdy, Shirley Jac Wagner as Swede, Shirley Kelley as the housemother, Violet Conard as the alumna and Emily Stacey as the rushee. Concerning the experience of the actresses, Professor Crafton said, "Miss McCluggage won the acting award at the University last year. Winning a national award prize a few years ago, Miss Davis also received honors in her role as Elizabeth in 'Mary of Scotland.' As both a stage and radio performer in Topeka, Miss Miller has gained experience. They are all well qualified to fill their roles." K-State Wants Sailors Too Kansas State College is out to get the Navy. The next Kansas legislative session will be asked to amend the act which provides for military training at K-State so that training for Navy as well as army may be given. Senate Approves Four Appointments Today Washington — (INS) — The senate approved four new appointments to the state department today. Favorable action was accorded the nomination of Joseph C. Grew, former ambassador to Japan, as under-secretary of state and Will C. Clayton, Nelson A. Rockefeller and Archibald MacLeish, as assistant secretaries. Meanwhile, the senate foreign relation committee approved sweeping reorganizations in the state department which would create two additional posts of assistants secretary of state. Veto Right Fixed By Compromise Washington—(INS) —The United States apparently has compromised with Russia on the question as to whether one of the powers agreeing with the Dumbarton Oaks agreement shall have the right of veto if the council considers taking military action against that power as an aggressor. On this point, the Soviet delegation at Dumbarton Oaks had insisted on the right of veto and had refused to put its government in the position of being punished if it were accused of aggression. Until today the other three governments—the United States, Great Britain and China—had held to the contrary position, insisting that all governments without exception, should submit themselves to the council's anti-aggression measures. Seal Campaigners Will Meet At Gym This Afternoon Representatives from organized houses who are assisting in the student tuberculosis Christmas seal drive which will begin today will meet this evening at 4:30 o'clock in Room 204 of Robinson gym, instead of in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building, as previously announced. Seals will go on sale immediately after the meeting, Eugenia Heworth, chairman of the public relations committee of the All-Student Council has announced. The drive on the campus is being sponsored by the All-Student Council through the public relations committee. Members of Miss Hepworth's committee are Bob Henry and Don Cousins. Mrs. Seba Eldridge, chairman of the Douglas County Tuberculosis and Health association will outline the program to student representatives at the meeting this afternoon, and Miss Hepworth will give final campaign instructions. The meeting will be over by 5 o'clock, Miss Hepworth said. The proceeds of the drive will finance the work of the Douglas County Tuberculosis and Health association during the coming year. The program of the association provides for a chest clinic each month under the direction of Dr. C. F. Taylor of Norton. Last year 399 persons used the clinic. For the past year the staff of the Watkins Memorial hospital has made a hundred per cent contribution in the Christmas seal drive, Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the health service of the hospital announced. Sports Club MaySponsor Ski Trip If enough interest is shown in skiing by University students, a trip to Colorado will be planned over the Christmas holidays, Lucky Kunzelman, co-chairman of the new winter sports club on the campus, has announced. The idea will be discussed, with other plans for roganization of the new club, at a meeting tonight in the officers club room of the Memorial Union building. Any student interested in ice skating, skiing, tobboganing, or other sport is asked to attend the meeting, Kunzelman said. The new club is being formed in cooperation with Student Union activities, and will have the backing of the men's physical education department. Dr. F. C. (Phog) Allen will be a director. The group plans to take over a part of Fowler shops to be used for storage and repair of equipment for the club. Kunzelman and Warren Alexander will head the organization. First project of the club will probably be the flooding of several University tennis courts for ice skating, Kunzelman said. A Cappella Has Two New Members Two new members have been appointed to the University A Cappella choir, Dean D. M. Swarthout, director of the choir announced today.

Names Posted For Grade Check All freshmen and sophomores in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences whose names appear on the list to be posted opposite room 229 in Frank Strong hall this weekend, must meet with their faculty advisers Monday or Tuesday, Dec. 12, Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College, announced today. A Cappella Has Two New Member "Although only the students whose names appear on this list are required to see their faculty advisers at this time, any college freshman or sophomore should feel perfectly free to consult his adviser," he suggested. The purpose of this early 4-week report from the instructors is to give each student an opportunity to determine whether he is making satisfactory progress in his studies. Formerly no check was made on a student's progress until the middle of the semester, which the faculty believes is too late to help the student Ku Ku Club to Elect Officers The names of all College freshmen and sophomores and their faculty advisers' names and office hours will appear on the bulletin board Wednesday. Election of all Ku Ku club officers is scheduled for 7 o'clock tonight in the Pine room of the Union building, Dewey Nemee, secretary, announced today. The next report on the students' grades from their instructors will be at mid-semester, Dean Ulmer said.

According to Jean O'Connor, who is in charge of the administrative features of the University War Bond Drive, bond and stamp sales yesterday, the first day of the Hill drive, were not up to expectations. Students and faculty have been urged to visit the tables which are set up in Fraser hall and Frank Strong hall. Members of CVC are at the tables each day this week from 9 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. to make sales. Candidates for the War Bond queen have been announced by Beverly Jane Waters, who is in charge of the Bond Drive at the University. The queen will be elected at the War Bond dance in the Military Science building Friday night following the basketball game. Donald Cousins and his Navy band will play for the dance. The following are candidates which turned in to Miss Waters by last night: Ashton Reappointed To Directors' Board Of Humanities Meet Announce Names For Bond Queen Prof. John Ashton, chairman of the department of English, was appointed to the board of directors of the Regional Humanities Conference at the closing sessions yesterday in Denver. Professor Ashton and Prof. Hildon Gibson of the political science department, returned to Lawrence this morning after attending the conference which opened Friday morning. F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law, returned Saturday evening. Mr. Huberman fainted backstage after he had taken two curtain calls at intermission and became acutely ill. He was taken to the Watkins Memorial hospital where he is reported to be resting comfortably this morning. However, he asked not to As a member of the board of directors of the conference, Professor Ashton is also a member of the continuing organization of the conference, helping to plan its work. There probably will not be another meeting of the regional group until the summer of 1946, he said. be disturbed when he was asked for an interview. His secretary, Miss Ibbekin, is with him. Mr. Huberman arrived in Lawrence Sunday and asked Prof. Woldemar Geltch, head of the department of violin, to engage a quiet room for him at the hotel as he was always quite nervous before a concert. Professor Geltch did so, but evidently something which Mr. Huberman ate for lunch yesterday disagreed with him. He plans to leave Lawrence this evening for Emporia where he is to appear in a concert tomorrow night. Washington—(INS)—National service legislation to set up production of lagging phases of heavy output will be demanded by the army unless voluntary methods correct the situation this month, according to Lt. Gen Brehon Sommervell. Concerning ticket refunds for last night's performance, Dean Swarthout said it was possible that another attraction would be brought to patrons this winter. Although Mr. Huberman played selections from only two composers, he was received enthusiastically by his audience. He played Handel's "Sonata Da Camera in D," which is a slow classical movement. From Brahms' "Sonata D Minor, Op. 168." he played the Allegro, Adagio. Un poco ex e sentimento, and the presto agitato movements. Of Brahms' three sonatas for violin and piano, the one in D minor is least frequently heard. Mr. Huberman was accompanied by Boris Rubakine. General Threatens National Legislation Sommervell said U. S. troops have moved faster, fired more artillery shells and other ammunition than originally estimated. Thus far, only transportation problems from the port to the front have caused actual lack of ammunition but be added the tempo calls for a larger future schedule. Students Are Violating 'No Smoking' Rules Students have been neglecting the no smoking rule in the vestibule and the east entrance of Frank Strong hall since the cold weather has started, according to Persi Swok, president of the All Student Council. Signs have been posted by the council and all students must obey them. Students may smoke in the basement of Frank Strong hall, Miss Snook said. TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS TUESDAY. DECEMBER 5,1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Soybeans Gain In Importance To War Effort Today Americans are being fed news about the "miracle" soybean. From the fighting fronts, from recent "Food for Freedom" campaigns, and from news dispatches comes information about the valuable soya product. The soja pea, now known as the soybean, and main source of China's food supply, was brought from that country to America by Commodore Matthew C. Perry. The plant was grown in this country first in 1897, when George Washington Carver, Negro scientist, began to experiment with it. Through his research, Carver developed flour starch, stains, dyes, wood fillers of different colors, and ink. From the bean stalks, he derived a substitute for excelsior packing. The United States now grows a third of the world's soybeans, the most versatile vegetable in the world. Industry is using the "miracle bean" for synthetics. Henry Ford has replaced 25 pounds of steel in the automobile with five pounds of soy. A leader in this field, Ford has used the soybean in the manufacture of window frames, steering wheels, gearshift knobs, distributors, and other parts. Soybean wool has been developed into an upholstery textile. Conversion of the soybean flour into synthetic rubber has been announced by the U.S. Bureau of Chemistry and Engineering. Plastics derived from the plant are replacing aluminum and the lighter alloys. The highly nutritious soybean contains 50 per cent protein, heavily reinforced with fats, minerals, vitamins, and lecithin. It is almost a complete meal for a soldier's ration. A high energy ration of full-fat soya flour was a secret of the German army's success in the invasion of Poland, Norway, France, and Holland. The U.S. army is using soy flour in biscuits, muffins, pastry, griddle-cakes, and waffles. Its value as a meat substitute has been discovered by American housewives. The use of soybeans is an important contribution toward winning the war. —E.B. To Discuss Courts on KFKU Dean F. J.

Rock Chalk Talk By PAT PENNEY Kappa Alpha Theta denounces the pinning of Gladys Blue, daughter of the Basin Street Blues of Emporia, to B. O. (Big Operator) Ritt, son of Mr. and Mrs. U. R. Ritt of Kansas City. The impressive ceremony took place at the Phi Fsi lodge, Saturday evening, where couples were gathered in self-defense (they'd give up braving the Mite crowd). Marsh Fryar at the organ rendered "Here Comes the Bride" and sorority sisters of Gladys sang "Because" (because we can't wait until we're initiated). Martha Bonebrake pinned on the VFD badge (Vote for Dewey) of red, white, and blue, and lines formed to the right for Blue and the left for Ritt. We might say that a neck of a good time was had by all. Following the pinning, R. J. Atkinson, Psi prexy, awarded the Congressional Medal of Horror to Earl Crawford, who, as usual, was instigator of the whole affair. The V-12 Christmas carol: I'm Dreaming of a Tight Christmas.

With the annexation, there would be an approximate tax of $8 on $1,000 evaluation. The Association of homeowners have an annual assessment to cover such things as garbage disposal that is taken up by the city within the town's limits. Although there would be increased taxes for the city, there would also be additional expense for utilities. Not all of the land in West Hills is developed, and the unplated land would need sewers eventually. The county has expressed the desire that the city take over West Hills; the city isn't positive about their acquiring the entire addition, undeveloped land and all; and the owners aren't certain what they want. Within this district are seven organized houses of the University and many professors homes. How the the fraternities, sororities, and dormitories will be affected is not vet clear Annexation into the city will mean an increased population or about 500 to the city's 13,600. This is not enough of an increase, however, to make Lawrence a first class city with the requirements such a classification would necessitate. Nearly two million dollars in bonds have been purchased in the sixth war loan drive at the University of Southern California. LOST: "College Algebra."

Faculty Will Plan Retirement System At Meet Saturday Dean Stockton, chairman of the committee, announced this morning that representatives from Kansas State college, Ft. Hays State Teachers college, Emporia State Teachers college, Pittsburg State Teachers college, and the University will attend the meeting. The faculty committee on retirement plans representing the five state schools will formulate a definite program Saturday morning in Dean F. T. Stockton's office. This program for a retirement system is to be submitted to the Board of Regents, Dec. 15, so that they will have material to incorporate in a bill to be presented to the state legislature Pfc. Jack Musselman, nephew of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Brune of Lawrence, has been missing in action since Nov. 15. In his last letter, Private Musselman said he had been in the combat line in France for some time. He is in the infantry. Private Musselman entered the service in July, 1942, and had attended the University the preceding year, making his home with Mr. and Mrs. Brune. Ex-Student Is Missing in Action Designers' Work Displayed in Fraser Colorful examples of work by leading advertising designers head the display of modern advertising art now being shown at Thayer museum. This exhibition, circulated by The American Federation of Arts, will be shown at Thayer until Dec. 31, Mrs. Ruth Rider, curator, said. Layouts, drawings, diagrams, and actual examples of contemporary advertising, are mounted on large plywood panels with many of the mats hung so that they may be lifted to reveal comparisons beneath. The psychological and design points of view are emphasized to show new and important developments in modern advertising. The exhibition shows the value of simple expressive patterns in advertising which leave a clear imprint on the consumer's memory. It shows how creative design in reshaping the character of modern advertising. As an amusing contrast, flowery, pictorial, advertising cards of the last half of the 19th century will be shown in the small gallery adjoining the main exhibition. These cards were a recent gift to the museum by Mrs. D. R. Gordon of Abilene, and are an interesting study in advertising art of the last century. Mrs. Rider announced today that the collection of 100-year old coverlets and the two cases of foreign shows will continue to be on display in the north gallery on the second floor, until the end of December. Flood Ruins Farm Crops Sending the Wakarusa river from its banks to a flood stage, the more than two inches of rain have caused probable damage to the wheat fields. Although the rain has subsided in Lawrence today, the rainfall was the heaviest that has even fallen in Eastern Kansas in December. Because of the rain, rivers have overflowed their banks. The Kaw river rose more than five feet yesterday. According to a statement by Prof. C. J. Posey the weather this fall has been the wettest since 1920. The rainfall during November totaled 3.38 inches, which was 1.37 above normal. Making Kansas weather even more unusual, the weather has been the warmest since 1931, with the mean temperature for November as 48.53, which is 5.78 degrees above normal.

Your 16th Dollar's worth BG HOSIERY SHOPS 4 FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS TUESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1944 Blues Stop Jayhawks In Initial Game,40-35 A young Kansas basketball team, playing its initial contest of the season with Washburn on the latter's home boards, lost to the hustling Blue five in a closely contested ball game last night, 40-35. Only the set shots of little Owen Peek, speedy Jayhawk forward kept the Crimson and Blue in the contest during the second half. The smooth shooting Jayhawker nullified a Blue seven point half-time lead by hitting six field goals in the third period, but the Topeka five pulled back into the lead in the ragged closing minutes of the game. Charlie Moffett, K.U. regular last winter, gave a smooth performance during the time the injured forward was in the contest. Peck's fifteen tallies were high for the contest. Gib Stramel and Krone netted ten each for the Blue. K.U. Behind at Half The Blue five ran up an early 6-2 lead in the first part of last night's ragged game, but Carlson and Briley hit to pull the Crimson and Blue into a 7-6 lead. The glory was short-lived, however, for the Topekans rapidly made it 14-7. K.U. coach Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen then shoved an entire new Kansas team into the contest, but still the scrappy Blue five continued to hit and pulled into a 23-16 lead at the half. Lou Goehring's two buckets kept the 'Hawks in the contest. Right after the teams took the floor to begin the final half of the game, Peck began his hitting streak which ran the Jays into a 30-27 lead. Evans and Stramel hit for the Ichabads though, and the Topekans again pulled into a 33-33 tie. Ulrich's charity toss gave the Blue a 1 point advantage, then, which the Hawks could never overcome. Dillard made it 36-33 for the Blues, but Peck came back to pull the Kansans up on the Topekan's heels. After the final Kansas bucket, the Jayhawks couldn't get the ball within shooting range, and lay-ups by Stramel and Van Gundyiced the contest. Stramel Is Blue Star Gib Stramel, rugged Blue center who starred last year for Hays high school, controlled the rebounds off both baskets, giving the Blues the advantage they needed. Both teams played ragged ball, but the Hawks lacked the hustle they could have shown. After the game the team, coaches, and alumni friends met at the Chocolate Shot for a post-game dinner. University Jay-Janes were the special guests for the evening. E. C. Quigley, KU, athletic director, and Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary, made the trip also. Transportation facilities made the game very hazardous, the cars in which the squad traveled, having to fight water over to the capital city, and fog all the way back. The next game for the Jaya-hawkers will be with the same W.A.A. to Install Fifty New Members The annual W.A.A. hockey-volleyball mixer will be held in the Kansas room of the Union building at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, Roberta Sue McCluggage, president of W.A.A., announced today. Approximately fifty women will be initiated Thursday afternoon and other W.A.A. awards will be made. If a girl believes she has enough points for W.A.A., she should see Charlotte Price, point system manager, by tomorrow, said Miss McCluggage. Katherine Burchfield, volleyball manager, and Jean Boardman, hockey manager, will have charge of the mixer, Miss McCluggage said. Dr. Chung Chien Young Will Speak Dr. Chung Chien Young, member of the National Geological Survey of China, will speak at 4:30 p.m. Thursday in room 206, Snow hall, Dr Raymond Hall, of the department of zoology, announced today.

Sportorials By EARL BARNEY, KANSAN SPORTS EDITOR Officials: Oberhelman and Peterson Guest Columnist—Loren King Since the ill fated Turkey Day game in Ruppert Stadium, in Kansas City, we've seen a lot of comment on the idea of a big new stadium for K.C. The Star's Sports editor, C. E. McBride made much copy in the Friday issue about the chances for such a project. The idea seems to be that Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma are supposed to fall all over each other trying to schedule games in the big stadium. McBride has figures showing how much more the Jayhawkers can make by playing in Kansas City than by playing at home. If this is true, we might as well go along with the city promoters and then Quig will have Memorial stadium exclusively for circuses. We wonder what Kansas City's bowl will be named. Will it be called the "Cereal bowl" for all the corn and wheat grown in this section of the country? Or, if the Big Six teams are to take on hot shot ball teams in this stadium it might appropriately be the "Duck Soup bowl." Army-Navy Notes— The Army-Navy game, always a standout, proved to be a dynamic climax to one of the most thrilling football seasons in several years. The sports writers differed on the real merit of the Army team. The fact that the cadets came roaring down the season knocking over all its opponents like tenpins, is countered with the charge that Army often plays below its own class. The Navy schedule is pointed to as a tougher row to hoe. But the fact stands, Army's 23 to 7 defeat of Navy, is enough to show the West Point power. --team to "burn" all week long, generating enough steam to win the next Saturday's game. Now that Oklahoma has beaten Nebraska 1944 Big Six football is on the records, we can take a deep breath. The Sooners were supposed to take Kansas, and Missouri was one of the few times this season the dopesters were right. But think of all the times this season when they were wrong. Nebraska was supposed to take Kansas, and Missouri was given little chance against Iowa State and Oklahoma. OUR CHRISTMAS SUGGESTIONS: Santa STATIONERY FLUORESCENT LAMPS But just consider how the experts were upset. The Jayhawkers soundly walloped Nebraska, then lost to a K-State team that suffered mightily on the field of the Cornhuskers. Look at it another way; after knocking themselves out to tie Iowa State 21-21, the Missouri Tigers were battered all over the field by the same Nebraska that bowed to the Cyclones. Many factors enter into figuring why a team wins one week and loses the next, but as one Big Six sports writer suggested, you can count on one Saturday's beaten Lawrence Typewriter Exchange NOTE BOOKS --team to "burn" all week long, generating enough steam to win the next Saturday's game.

SUNDAY BOB HOPE "Princess and the Pirate" Russians Telegraph Appeal to University Faculty members of the University of Leningrad appealed directly to the faculty of the University of Kansas by cablegram yesterday, asking them to do their utmost to bring about the defeat of Germany and the end of the war. The 700-word message from the 35 Russian educators was prepared at a meeting celebrating the 19th anniversary of the founding on the University of Leningrad. The message said that the faculty members of the University of Leningrad played the roles of carpenters and plasterers in reconstructing the University after it had been bombed. Most of the cablegram told about the havoc and destruction done to Russia by Germany during the invasion, and urged scientists in the democratic countries to press forward in scientific research to bring a quicker defeat of Germany.

B. Donham, former dean of the Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration, yesterday afternoon at a general faculty meeting arranged by Chancellor Deane Mallott. Similar bald convictions and sweeping generalizations resulted in one of the liveliest discussions the faculty has had for years. The address was one in a series by guest speakers on curriculum problems and educational objectives. "The emphasis in education should be on human relations." Dean Donham insisted, "and the greatest opportunities lie in the liberal arts colleges. The opportunities are not being seized; however; we are not helping the student to integrate, to see the significance, in terms of human relations, of what he learns. We are just 'stocking the shelves.'" Some Arguments Were Challenged Before he finished, the speaker had challenged the objectives and efficacy of virtually every division of the American university, and he had figuratively trampled on the toes of almost every instructor. Several University professors asked him to support some of his generalizations or challenged the soundness of some of his arguments. His answers were quick, witty, and generally unequivocal. Some professional schools have made considerable progress toward integrating general and specialized knowledge, toward developing wis- (continued to page four) Capitol News Washington—(INS)—Congress today extended for another six months the time for trial of any person found responsible for the Pearl Harbor disaster—a possibility already ruled out by she army and navy. It was the third extension voted by congress. The Pan-American Union governing board met in Washington this afternoon where the brush off was given to the Argentine proposal for an inter-American meeting of foreign ministers. An insufficient number of nations were said to have submitted their views on the proposal to investigate charges of fascism in the Farrell regime to warrant meeting. A dying 78th congress headed for a conflict with President Rosevelt over proposals to freeze social security payroll taxes for another year. Senate approval of the house-passed bill, perhaps by Friday night, was assured almost certain presidential veto. The committee reported to the house the first supplemental—or deficiency—appropriation bill for 1945 containing new appropriations and reappropriation totaling $478,5$4,712. An economy-minded house appropriation committee today sheared $161,824, 895 from an administration request for new funds for the present fiscal year. Emporia Is Isolated, Ottawa, No. Wichita Vacated Due to Floods Flood waters have covered fields, blocked highways, and caused damage to buildings in Eastern Kansas. Because the Cottonwood and Neosho rivers overflowed their banks, Emporia has been siolated. Business buildings and homes were evacuated in Ottawa. Portions of North Wichita are under water, as a result of the flooding of the Little Arkansas river. According to weather bureau records in Lawrence this is the wettest December since 1873. Total inches of rain in 4.02. The Wakarusa river has flooded, making detours necessary, and the Kaw river was near flood stage yesterday. (International News Service) Allies Attack Saarequemines The U.S. third army today drove four new bridgeheads across the Saar river for a total of six, smashed into the outskirts of the key Nazi stronghold of Saareguinees, and poured a devastating artillery fire into the industrial center of Saarbrücken. The new crossings were made along a two and one-half mile front between Saarlautron and Merzig. Extensive regrouping and only minor advances were reported from the First and Ninth U.S. armies to the north, while the Seventh army climaxed three days of heavy fighting with the seizure of Selestat. On the Italian front the British Eighth army drove westward from the liberated Adriatic city of Ravenna and captured three towns as the Germans fled in a severely disorganized retreat. The Russians meanwhile were blazing away in an all-out attack on Budapest, and had driven to within 50 miles of the Austrian border. The current air offenses against Germany's synthetic oil plants, communication lines and fuel dumps reached a new peak as thousands of bombers blasted targets from British and Italian bases. The U.S. offensive in the Philippines again was bogged down by torrential rains. Poem by Prof. Grant Is in November Issue Of Atlantic Monthly Prof. Mary Grant's poem, "The Myth of Gifts" has been published in the November issue of Atlantic Monthly magazine. Professor Grant of the Latin department explained this morning that the poem is the retelling of a classical myth found in Plato's "Protagoras." "Aesop," another of her poems, was published by the magazine last April. The poem, which is an imaginative sketch of the writer of fables, describes how the slave, Aesop, might have met and made friends with Solon, one of the seven wise men of Greece in the sixth century B.C. Candles will be illegal for Paris Christmas trees this year. Three 'shorter poems,' "Fable of Laughter," "Blackbirds," and "What Lethe?" were published by the periodical in 1943. Dense Fog Final Blow To Students University students grouped around the campus this morning in a fog that would have satisfied Sherlock Holmes or the producer of "Wuthering Heights." To many students this fog was the final blow after almost four days of a slow drizzle. No one is at his best (disposition or appearance) under such conditions, and with the temperature around 30 degrees some mornings, things are becoming downright unbearable. The main topic of discussion on these days of bitter cold winds is "Why didn't they put K.U. in a valley?" The question seems to be debatable, but it is something to think about when one is walking the long stretch across campus. By popular vote, the distance between Snow hall and the Chi Omega house has been named "Pneumonia Gulfs." The weather is such a shock to the freshmen that they are all suffering from "St. Vitus Dance." The upperclassmen are hardened to the fact that this Hill is undoubtedly the coldest place in the Middle West. Also, the weather has produced a weakening effect of the student's self control. Probably the most over-used phrase on the Hill is "OK—you twisted my arm—I'll stay home and play bridge!" Winter Sports Group To Build Ice Rinks On Tennis Courts Sixty-five students attended the first meeting of the newly organized winter sports club, held last night in the officer's club room of the Memorial Union buildig. Because of the large attendance in the small room, only temporary plans were made, Charles Kunzelman, co-chairman said, and another meeting will be held next Tuesday night in a larger room in the Union building, and officers will be chosen. Students interested in the proposed ski-trip to Colorado during the Christmas holidays are asked to come to a special meeting in the Union lounge at 7 p.m. Thursday. Plans for a skiing trip to Colorado are definitely underway. Kunzelman reported, but it has not been decided yet whether the trip will be during the Christmas holidays, or between semesters. The club decided last night to flood the University tennis courts as soon as possible for ice skating. Greek Street Battles Intervened by British Athens—(INS)—The Greek capital was torn by continued strife today as British armed forces intervened in an effort to quell the bloodshed resulting from street battles between left-wing opposition units and government troops and police. The political situation became more confused as the result of the fighting between opposition forces and reports of the possible resignation of Premier George Papandreau continued. At least once each day, some soldier on Leyte loses his wife through divorce. ASC Plans New Survey to Present Student Evaluation of Faculty And Proposed Curriculum Changes A standing committee of All-Student Council members and other students will be appointed by the council to present student suggestions and opinions on University curriculum changes to the faculty, it was decided at last night's open meeting of the All-Student Council. Nearly 150 students attended the meeting in the Union lounge. New York — (INS) — Madison Square Garden officials were disclosed to have set up a protective system to eliminate any and all gambling and bookmaking in the vicinity of the famed New York arena. Irish Refutes Allen's Charges Commenting on the recently published remarks by "Phog" Allen of the University of Kansas, Ned Irish, acting president of the garden, said no evidence had been found to substantiate charges of a gambling scandal. However he disclosed that garden officials have worked up a list of 60 "undesirables" who will be barred from the arena—even for dog shows. Irish said the garden plans were concerned mostly with professional gamblers and bookmakers. Campus Seal Drive Sets $800 Goal; Will End Dec.15 The new committee will present student opinion on the five curriculum changes proposed by faculty committees before An $860 goal has been set for the campus tuberculosis Christmas seal drive, which began yesterday. Eugenia Hepworth, head of the public relations committee of the All-Student Council, has announced. The drive will continue until Dec. 15. Christmas seals went on sale yesterday afternoon immediately after a meeting with representatives from organized houses, Miss Hepworth said. Forty-three houses were represented at the meeting. Booths have been set up in the cafeteria of the Memorial Union building and in Watson library, and seals will be on sale from 11:30 until 12:30 a.m. and from 4:30 until 6 p.m. in the cafeteria, and from 2:30 until 4:30 at the library. Campaigners from the organized houses may secure information and seals from the office of Miss Joie Stapleton, faculty advisor, in Robinson gym, Miss Hepworth said. Huberman Reported 'Fit as a Fiddle' Again Bronislaw Huberman, Polish violinist, who was taken ill Monday night during the intermission of his concert, was released from the hospital yesterday afternoon. He left this afternoon for Emporia where he will give a recital tonight. Mr. Huberman felt fine and was his usual self again, Waldemar Geltch, professor of violin, said today. these changes are voted upon at the faculty meeting Dec. 12. Dean Henry Werner, who was recently appointed council adviser, commended the proposal at last night's meeting. A resolution was also passed to conduct a comprehensive canvass of student evaluation of teachers and their courses. Information obtained will be made available to students for help in selecting their courses, and to a committee composed of administrative officers, faculty, and students, for any action it may wish to take. Doris Bixby was appointed to head the new survey, and Dean J. H. Nelson will act as faculty adviser. Eric Eulich presented a report from a student opinion panel of which he was a member, praising the appointment of Dean Werner to the council, recommending that the penalty placed on members of the Sour Owl staff be lessened, and asking ior the opinion of the council on possible future panel discussions on student problems. The council endorsed the idea and encouraged any similar group to report at future council meetings. Dean Werner gave a short talk, outlining his new position as faculty adviser, and of suggestions for the year's work were discussed. Eugenia Hepworth, chairman of the public relations committee, reported on the tuberculosis Christmas seal drive which began yesterday. Navy Buys Stamps And Bonds at Rally Arrangements have been made, Lt. Fitzhugh said, for the University to receive credit for the sales in its current drive. With each 10 cent war stamp purchased the Navy men will also receive a vote for the C V C bond queen who will be presented at the dances Friday night after the varsity basketball game in the Military Science building. Subscriptions for war bonds and stamps amounting to more than $2,000 were reported last night by members of the V-12 unit and ship's company stationed at the University at a special Pearl Harbor day celebration, Lt. R. T. Fitzhugh, of the V-12 unit, said today. The rally was held last night in Fraser theater. The total stamp and bond sales will be much greater by the end of the week, he said.

TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THE KANSAN COMMENTS WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 6, 1944 Kansan Restates Policies in Reply To Arguments Since the voiced opinions of students at the opening meeting of the All Student Council brought up issues concerning policy and operation of the University Daily Kansan, it might be well to state the policy as clearly as it can be defined. The Daily Kansan is governed by the Kansan Board, composed of student members elected according to merit by a committee of faculty members and an equal number of student Board members. This Board, in cooperation with the faculty determines general policy, but the faculty has no voting power on the Board. Although the constitution of the Daily Kansan is mostly unwritten, 10 general policies were agreed upon, and accepted in written form. Of these, three are of special importance in view of last night's discussion. The Kansan Board constitution states, "Reader-interest should be the primary consideration in the choice and display of news and editorial material." The staff is divided into an editorial department, a news department, and a business department, each equal to and independent of the other. Within its limited ability, the purpose of the Daily Kansan is to deserve the title of "student newspaper" in its highest sense. Another general policy adopted by the Kansan Board is, "Neutrality in politics, both on and off the campus, and impartiality among organizations and student and faculty groups should be strictly observed. Criticisms of organizations and groups, and even the administration, are not denied, but they should be from an unprejudiced point of view." The section on policy of the Kansan Board constitution concludes with the statement, "The editor-in-chief, managing editor, and advertising manager have final authority in matters of policy in their respective departments, subject to the approval of the Kansan Board, the advice of their respective faculty advisers, and the conditions previously stated." Because the Daily Kansan is a newspaper, the staff owes a responsibility to the journalistic profession as well as to the student body as such. There is no categorical answer to the question. "Is the Daily Kansan a laboratory for journalism students or is it the student publication?" It is both, for most of the staff members are both potential journalists and students. Also, a subscription to any newspaper in the United States does not include the right of demanding any Rock Chalk Talk Rock A good man nowadays is hard to find—Just ask Lila Jean Doughman or Mickey Rowsey, who thought they heard someone crawling on the Theta roof the other night.

Coming back empty-handed, they decided it would be best to sleep four in a room—just for safety's sake!

Chemical Engineers to Have Meeting Tomorrow Night High School Will Use Room in Fraser Hall Election of officers will be held tomorrow night at the first meeting of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers on the campus this fall, Bill Haines, temporary chairman announced this morning. Prof. E. C. Buehler, of the department of speech will be guest speaker. The remodeling of room 306 in Fraser hall is being done for the students of University High school by the buildings and grounds department. Classes from the high school will meet there daily, and it will also be used for the special weekly assemblies of the school. Built-in cabinets have been constructed for the high school music classes, and the celotex ceiling insures a sound-proof room to prevent disturbing other classes in the building. Other improvements will include newly plastered and painted walls. article be printed. The amount of reader-interest must be determined as impartially as possible by the editors. The power to compel the publication of an article is as repugnant to the constitution of this democracy as the power to prohibit the publication. [Bread loaf with slices removed] The meeting, which is open to all chemical engineering students, will begin at 7:30 p.m. in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building.

Justice Thiele said the council publishes its studies in bulletins and requests the views of Kansas citizens concerning its actions. In answer to questions asked by F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law, Justice Thiele said the purpose of the council is to make a continuous study and survey of the business of Kansas courts and to expedite the transaction of judicial business. The council is concerned with the work of all courts. Justice Thiele Tells Of Judicial Council Justice Homer Hoch of the Kansas supreme court will be speaker next week in this series of radio programs on Kansas courts. The council has existed for 17 years and has nine members appointed by the chief justice of the state supreme court. Justice Walter Thiele, chairman of the Kansas Judicial council, described the workings of the council last night over station KFKU. The Independent Student association today announced the inauguration of a new annual event, a semiformal Christmas party and dance. ISA Christmas Party On Dec. 16 to Become Annual Social Event According to the speaker, the probate code is one of the important achievements of the council in the past. Members of the ISA council, who plan entertainment for the four hundred ISA members and their friends, now include, besides president Alderson and business manager, Nickells, Ann Sciipes, vicepresident, Emily Hollis, secretary, Dick Hartzell, publicity chairman, and Pat Graham, and Muriel Mienke representatives at large. "The Wyandotte High School dance band, which has made previous appearances on the campus, is scheduled to play for the evening." Jack Nichols, new business manager of the association, said. Nichols added that the party was included in the regular ISA membership fee, but that non members would be admitted at the usual rates. The party this year will be held Saturday, Dec. 16, in the Union Lounge, according to Don Alderson, ISA president. Alderson stated that plans were made by the ISA council to make the party an annual affair if this first one draws large enough crowd. All retail dry cleaning and pressing establishments will be required to post their maximum prices by Dec. 15. HOLIDAY IN THE STREETS The perfect gift for friends and parents.

Fourteen organizations had signified their intention of entering teams, making it possible for two separate leagues of seven teams each, to be organized. to be organized. The "A" league is composed of the following teams: Delta Tau Delta, Tau Kappa Epsilon, Sigma Nu, Phi Delta Theta, Kappa Alpha Psi, Kappa Sigma, Draft Doggers. Teams drawn for the "B" league are: Residence Halls, Beta Theta Pi, Phi Kappa Psi, Sigma Chi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Phi Gamma Delta, Dick's Demons. Representatives of the teams decided to play on Monday and Wednesday at 7:30 and 8:30 p.m., with the first games of the season next Monday, Dec. 11. Dec. 11 A few other changes were made in the existing rules. Four players instead of the usual five must be on the floor at game time, and 7:30 games will positively end at 8:30. If necessary the third and fourth quarters of the 7:30 games will be shortened equally so that the next games will begin on time. will begin on the Ray Kanehill, assistant intramurals director, announced that games will not be credited unless the scoresheet is turned in to the intramurals office. He also announced that varsity basketball players would referee the games. Kanehil proposed after the meeting that houses which have players on the varsity squad in any sport should receive an appropriate number of points to be added to their sweepstakes total. Basketball players will be able to swim after Monday games only.

Ministers' Conference Has Been Cancelled Plans for a state ministers' conference on the campus this month were abandoned by the faculty today, when Dean Paul B. Lawson, chairman of the committee on speakers, reported that no speaker of national prominence could be obtained. No definite plans have been made as yet about Religious Emphasis week, usually held on the campus in connection with the minister's conference, according to Rachel VanderWerf, executive secretary of the YWCA. Religious Emphasis week may be held independently sometime later, Mrs. VanderWerf said. Sportorials By EARL BARNEY, KANSAN SPORTS EDITOR The Washburn game— Admittedly, the Jayhawk opener Monday night against the Washburn Blues was far from satisfactory. The Topekans had not beaten the Crimson and Blue five since 1929, and frankly, did not hope to do so Monday. Kansas went over to Topeka with a 27-man squad which proved larger than the Blue home team. The Ichabods just had more spirit than the Kansas five throughout the entire game, and that was enough to win. Then, too, the home five playing on their home court had the support of the entire student body while there were probably not ten persons in the gym, outside of the team, who were pulling for a Jayhawk victory. The handful of Jay James who made the trip with E. C. Quigley to the game certainly tried, but the few female voices were all but drowned out by the fairly large Washburn cheering section. Incidently, "Quig" brought the Jay James over himself to liven up the after game dinner at the Chocolate Shop, and your correspondent reports that they certainly did. The trip over was bad enough, with flooding pavement and a driving rain to battle all the way, but the return voyage would have driven even the samest man to distraction. The cars in which the team returned had to drive through a thick fog which almost completely obscured the driver's vision most of the time. Weather conditions certainly were not favorable for playing a good basketball game! Looking forward— The Crimson and Blue tie into the Ichabos again Friday night here in Hoch auditorium, and certain Kansas team will be out for revenge that night. Looking good Monday night were Owen Peck, diminutive forward with an eagle eye for the basket, and Charlie Moffett, who had only recently been released from the hospital for injuries suffered in the K.U.-M.U. game. Moffett still shows the fine one-handed shot that placed him among the leaders in the Big Six scoring race last winter, and his floor play is very steady. "What the entire team really needs, though, is an older and more experienced player on the court to steady them down when the going gets rough and a good rebounder. The presence of these two in Friday night's game is going to make a big difference in the score. ___ HUMAN RELATIONS---- (continued from page one) (continued from page one) dom, toward training the imagination of students to meet new situations, Dean Donham said. Many professional schools are too narrow, however; and most liberal arts colleges, he declared, make the mistake of trying, or pretending to, use the scientific methods in fields where it cannot be used—the social studies, for example. For example, "After all, in this world of uncertainty, the only thing we can be sure of is the probability that very little will turn out to be as we expected. You cannot tie down the facts of life, the changing human relationships, but you can train people to think, to develop imagination, to see new forces and factors as they affect people." Criticize Elective System Criticize Elective System To support his argument that it is fallacious to require study of foreign languages because "it will help us understand other nations and their culture," he put up Europe as a prime exhibit. Nowhere else in the world do so many persons understand the languages of their neighbors as in Europe, he declared. "Does that fact account for Europe's system of peace?" he inquired. The elective system, the prerequisite based on time sequence, and failure to teach history with the present as the touchstone were criticized as general weaknesses in liberal arts institutions. At least 80 per cent of liberal arts curriculum in the first two years should be required, he suggested, and at least 60 per cent of the four years' work. A committee of educators said recently that "comparatively few" colleges are facing a critical situation. Contests in six sports have been planned for a program of Navy intramurals between the Pt's on the campus during the fall and winter semester, Chief Specialist G. W. Gathings of the V-12 office announced this morning. A "Fite Nite" at Hoch auditorium has also been planned later in the year, at which the public will be invited to attend the finals in the intramural volleyball, basketball and boxing. Other sports included in the program are touch football, hand ball, cross country running, swimming and underwater swimming. Points will be given winning Pt's and individuals, and to runners up. High point Pt at the end of the semester will receive some sort of a prize, Chief Gathings said. Competition in touch football began last week with three games. Pt 5 defeated Pt 8 by forfeit. Pt 9 defeated Pt 6 by a score of 12-0, and Pt 7 won over Pt 10 in an overtime play, 1-0. Other games will be played as weather permits. Schedules for handball competition have been set up, Chief Gathings said, and games will be played as soon as possible. These contests, as well as the others, are open to the public. The handball games will be played on the field south of Robinson gym. A V-12's Will Play In Pt. Intramural Sports Contests Robe - Pajamas - Slippers - Shirts Hankies-Ties-Jewelry-Bill Folds Sweaters-Sport Shirts Basketball competition will start next month, as soon as the gym is available. Boxing will start next month. According to present plans, a Navy boxing team will be organized from intramural winners to play teams at Olathe, Haskell, Washburn and probably in Kansas City.

The name of Joyce Morgan, Lock-sley hall, has been turned in as a candidate to Beverly Jane Waters, head of the Hill Bond drive, in addition to the seventeen names already announced. Donald Cousins, whose Navy band will play for the dance from 9:15 until 12 p.m., will act as master of ceremonies in presenting the candidates for queen as a group at 9:30 p.m. The queen will be presented at 11:45 p.m. Miss Waters has announced that the deadline for buying bonds and stamps and casting votes for the queen will be 10:45 p.m. Each ten cent war stamp purchased will entitle the buyer to one vote. The higher the purchase, the more votes can be cast. Series, E, F, G, and bond certificates are to be sold. (continued to page three) It is especially important, Miss Waters said, that all checks be made to the Postmasetr, Lawrence, Kan. Bond and stamp sales in Frank Strong hall and Fraser hall have been much better since Tuesday, according to Jean O'Conner, who is in charge of the administration side of the University Bond drive. Miss O-'Conner said that more than $400 in bonds and stamps had been sold in Frank Strong hall and $70 in Fraser hall up to last night. There is no specific quota for the University this year, Miss O'Conner said. Last year, a total of $19,000 in bonds and stamps was sold. In addition to his articles for Time, Life, and Fortune, Mr. Janeway has written widely for magazines and Janeway Will Speak On Reconversion Mr. Eliot Janeway, special writer for Life and Fortune magazines, will speak on "Reconversion to Prosperity" at 8:20 Monday night in Fraser theater in the second of the community lectures. His talk will cover all the problems which the American people will face in the reconversion period after the war. Mr. Janeway has become known as one of America's most independent and creative thinkers and analysts. At this time, when young and forward-looking leaders are most needed, his judgment and authority and clear statement are of especial audience importance. Formerly Business Editor of Time, Mr. Janeway took the measure of the country's present and post-war capacities in the economic field, and of the nation's basic thinking on most current issues. His interviews with leading production heads, union leaders, and political leaders from coast to coast, established him as one of the most able observers and fearless reporters. He answers the questions which Americans want to hear, and he examines the United State's position in the war and the post-war world with realism and directness. Today 'Dec.7' Anniversary Marks Three Years of War With Axis Union Addition To Be Discussed The new wing planned for the Memorial Union building and the contract for the new open dance floor on west campus, will be discussed at a meeting of the Union operating committee at 4:30 Monday afternoon in the Pine room, according to Henry Werner, chairman of the committee. In the discussion of the new wing, the committee will decide which campus organizations can be accommodated in it. Tentative plans, Mr. Werner explained, include a dance floor with a dancing capacity of 700 to 800 couples and a seating capacity of 1000. All plans for the new wing he emphasized, are, of course, subject to revision. The committee will probably award the contract for constructing the new dance floor, at its meeting Monday, Mr. Werner said. A large cement rectangle, the floor will be surrounded by a rail and will be close to picnic ovens. Twenty Nations Voted To Interim Council At Aviation Meeting Chicago—(INS)—Delegations of 54 Allied and neutral nations were signing formal red-ribboned documents today as the International Civil Aviation conference drew to a close. Delegates implemented their final work yesterday by electing 20 nations to membership on an interim council to be in office pending formal ratification of the permanent organization. Twenty-one were to have been named but Russia withdrew its delegates shortly before the opening session. The Soviets explained the action by refusing to attend as long as such "pro-facist" governments as Spain, Portugal and Switzerland were allowed to participate. The shocks, of the most violent intensity, were also reported by Fordham university seismologists and the Brest Bromwich observatory near London. In describing the tremors which occurred about 9 o'clock last night, the British observatory declared: "the whole earth was vibrating for six hours after the shock." Pasadena, Calif.—(INS)—Waves of powerful earth tremors apparently centered in the Jap homeland were reported today by the sie-s-mological laboratory at the California Institute of Technology. Great Earth Tremors Rock Jap Homeland Word has been received of the death of Eugene H. Ware, class of 1902, following a heart attack Nov. 12. The son of the well-known poet and lawyer, Eugene F. Ware of Topeka, Mr. Ware was graduated from the School of Law and later moved to Idaho where he lived 20 years. Today, Dec. 7, 1944, the United States is celebrating a grim anniversary in the nation's history three years at war with the Axis nations. Sunday, Dec. 7, 1941, began as a very ordinary Sabeth here in the United States. The nation went to church during the morning, families lingered over the Sunday dinner table to catch up on the week's go-sip, and the radio droned peacefull on, bringing its listeners the usual Sunday afternoon programs. U.S. Unites for War About 2 p.m. station announcers cut in on the program in progress to tell the nation and the rest of the world, "Japan has attacked Pearl Harbor." Shocked and stunned, the nation heard Congress declare war against the Axis powers at 12:26 p.m., Dec. 11; saw the first of her sons marching off to war; and began to get the results of the devastating attack on Pearl Harbor. With military equipment and personnel at a minimum, the armed forces immediately began assembling their sea, air, and land power. Draft measures, enlistments, and a civilian population eager to do its share combined to give the United States the great fighting force they have today. University Starts Wartime Program Here at the University of Kansas, the war invaded the campus activities and personnel. By Dec. 14, the University had already begun its first major war project, the first war fund drive, Prof. T. C. Rythe, director of the University press, was appointed conservator of materials and services important to the national defense at the University and G.W. Bradshaw, School of Engineering and Architecture, was in charge of aerial bombardment protection for the University. Many other professors have received important appointments in connection with the war since the early months of 1942. An acute man shortage developed at the University, gas rationing reduced the number of convertibles and jalopies, and food rationing reduced the number of steaks served for dinner. Three-Semester Plan Adopted Government forces aided British ground troops in other action to crush the revolt. The 70th commencement exercises, held in the spring of '42 graduated the first senior class during World War II. The class bought war bonds which will mature in 1952 and a gift is to be selected for the University by a surviving committee at that time. New courses were added to the curriculum for regularly enrolled students, and defense training schools were set up for students who were not regularly enrolled in the University. The School of Engineering and Architecture and the School of Medicine were the first in the University to go on a three-semester-n-year plan. The entire University RAF Fighter Planes Blast Greek Left-Wing Strongholds (continued to page three) Athens—(INS)—Royal air force fighter planes were thrown into the critical Greek situation today when they blasted strongholds of the left-wing EAN (national liberation front) in the nation's capital. FDR Appointees May Be Denied Washington—(INS)—A New Deal revolt threatened today to force senate rejection of some of President Roosevelt's appointments to top ranking state department posts. The revolt, so strong and unexpected that it stunned Democratic senate leaders, also may wreck the proposed reorganization of the state department in preparation for peace and postwar problems. By vote of 37 to 27 the senate referred back to the foreign relations committee four nominations. They are: Joseph C. Grew, to be undersecretary of state, W. L. Clayton, Nelson A. Rockefeller and Archibald MacLeish, to be assistant secretaries. All had previously been passed on by the committee and approved with a recommendation for senate confirmation. Surpluses Enable Teachers, Employees To Avoid Payment Accumulated surpluses through dividends made it possible yesterday for the Teachers and Employees association to dispense with the payment this year of its insurance premiums. At the same time, enough surplus was left for a possible reduction in premiums next year, officials reported. The Blue Cross, a hospitalization insurance plan also supervised by the association, now has approximately 275 members. The group life insurance branch has nearly 235 members. The 1943-44 dividend from the insurance company through which the campus organization purchases group insurance was $2684.08, or an amount equal to 33.4 per cent of the total premium assessment. To this $3354.64 of accumulated surpluses was added to make the 100 per cent exemption. Those who have made payments since July 15, 1944, will be credited on next year's premium, Karl Klooz secretary, announced. The first campus weather casualty of the winter season is Helen Mather, College freshman, who slipped this morning on the icy sidewalk in front of Watson library. She was carried to Watkins Memorial hospital by two V-12 students. Miss Mather dislocated her ankle and fractured both bones of her right leg, Dr. Ralph Canuteson reported. Dr. O. O. Stoland and Leonard H. Axe were elected to the board of directors of the association at the meeting yesterday afternoon. Freshman Injures Leg and Ankle in Fall Don't forget the War Bond Drive, Dec. 1-8, and the CVC War Bond dance, Friday, Dec. 8. B-29's Hit Tokyo, Leyte, As Yanks Advance in Saar International News Service A pair of B-20 superfortresses fire-bombed the Tokyo industrial waterfront area last night, starting at least seven fires within view of the Emperor's palace. The city was ablaze with lights and completely unaware of the impending attack. Meanwhile, Japanese industrial installations, at Mukden and the supply port of Darien in occupied Manchuria shuddered today—the third anniversary of the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor—under a heavy blasting by 70 of the huge bombers. All veterans of World War II have been asked to meet tonight at 7:30 o'clock in the Men's Lounge of the Memorial Union building to organize a University Veteran's Club, according to Lloyd Cunningham, first year student in the law school. The Fifth U.S. air force in the Philippines at the same time, ranged as far north as Manila to pound Jap airports and shipping while bombing and staffing an estimated 25,000 Japs remaining in western Leyte, where improved weather permitted ground forces to resume field operations. In Europe, the U.S. First, Third, Seventh, and Ninth armies consolidated positions and beat back savage German counter-tacks, while the Ninth army pressed within five miles of Saarbrücken. The British Eighth army swept up the Adriatic coast from Ravennia in Italy to engulf the entire area east of the Lamone river of Nazi resistance. Strategic heights around Faenza were seized by Eighth army troops, but an attempt to establish another Lamone bridgehead north of Russi was repulsed. U.S. Fifth army troops improved forward positions while the Russians ranged through southwestern Hungary on a 150-mile front. Veterans to Form Club on Campus At Meeting Tonight The purpose of the club is not that of a social club, Cunningham said; it is one which will set the problems of the veterans before the administration of the University. At the present there are about 60 veterans attending the University. Returning veterans will want a revision of the curriculum that is now offered by the school, Cunningham believes, and will want specialized courses in certain fields. Oklahoma University has already started such an organization to help conform to the wishes of the service veterans. All veterans who intend to go to school have the choice of the school they wish to attend. They may change to another school at anytime if they desire. The only requirement is that the veteran start his schooling seven years after he is discharged or after the end of the war. Dive for Needed Ammunition Ammunition is so badly needed that troops are diving to salvage shells from sunken LST ships. TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1944 KANSAN COMMENTS Canadian Government Will Call Up Draftees to Serve Overseas In a decision which not only stunned Canada, but startled nations throughout the world, the Dominion's government decided last week to compel overseas military service for their home-defense dratees. This compulsory məs u re caused immediate reaction—draftees liable for duty abroad staged anticonscription demonstrations in Pacific coast camps and prevented fellow drattes from leaving for overseas service; parliament held its third secret session since the war; Air Minister Charles Power resigned; draft-age youths rioted vigorously parades through Quebec streets; four Liberals joined the Opposition; and interfering officers were injured. This chaos and turmoil resulting from an order-in-council by the government was not a new situation, however, for, in 1918, numerous riots broke out after Sir Robert Borden's Unionist government first put through conscription. Remembering this previous uprising, Prime Minister Mackenzie King and a group of other Canadian Liberals held out against the measure, which would make 16,000 men available for immediate duty abroad, until the wave of opposition became too strong. The need for more soldiers to serve overseas first became apparent when the Canadians suffered heavy casualties in the recent thrusts toward Berlin. At once, drives for recruits were renewed in Canada, and James Layton Ralston, defense minister, went to Europe to determine the seriousness of the situation. He reported that the need for men was urgent, and he tried to win the cabinet to his view that these reinforcements should be conscripted. Falling in his attempts, he resigned on Nov. 1. Lt. Gen. Kenneth Stuart, chief of staff overseas, who was in sympathy with Ralston's views, soon followed his friend into retirement. In answer to the defense minister's statement about the urgent need for men. King said the shortage could be overcome by recruiting the home-defense draftees, who are known as "zombies." Sending the current batch of "zombies" overseas would not be wise, he said, because out of the 68,000 only 8,000 would make good infantry men without months of training. He believed that conscription would bring about a general election and risk national dissension, weakening Canadian unity and strength. For five years, he pointed out, Canada had carried on her part in the war without resorting to compulsion. With the help of the War Services Minister, Leo LaFleche, he concentrated his efforts on recruiting, hoping that the French-Canadians, strongly opposed to conscription, would answer his call. When the drive failed, King suddenly called a special session of the house of commons and senate at Ottawa. At the meeting, several courses were open to the prime minister. He might admit the failure of his drive for volunteers and reluctantly announce a policy change in favor of partial compulsion. He might simply give the house and senate all the available information, let them decide the issue, and abide by their decision. He might dissolve parliament and call a general election. Most observers expected King to hold out against the Opposition, for, at stake in the meeting, were the unity of his government, the drafted home-defense army, and the unity of a nation divided racially on conscription issues. Parliament faced the same question in the history-making meeting that it faces today: Will anti-conscription French Quebec accept compulsory overseas military service? —D.M Future Effect Of PAC Activities Is Unpredictable At the recent convention of the Congress of Industrial Organization, Sidney Hillman, chairman of the Political Action Committee, talked the C.I.O. into keeping the P.A.C. alive, even though the presidential campaign is over. The extent to which the P.A.C. influenced the voting in the recent election is hard to determine. However, President Roosevelt probably could not have won in 1944 without the support of labor. The P.A.C. was formed at a C.I.O. executive meeting in July, 1943. The Smith-Connally bill had just been passed, and anti-labor congressmen were holding the reins in the drive against labor. At the same time, labor was angry at Roosevelt because the War Labor Board had stopped several moves for higher wages. In their anger, some C.I.O. members wanted a third party. C.I.O. president, Philip Murray, and Mr. Hillman, however, knowing how third parties had failed in the past, were against the plan. Mr. Murray then proposed an organization that would promote labor's interests within the two-party system, and that also, would have a platform and party workers of its own. Believing that a big vote meant a democratic vote, the organization began a drive to register voters. The volunteer workers put up bulletin boards, distributed campaign buttons, published pamphlets, broadcast over the radio, and even moved registration booths into some factories. American labor was hunting for more effective political weapons, and was willing to work hard to obtain them. Devised by labor itself, and backed with money, brains, and an army of workers, the P.A.C. set up a 1944 platform. It wanted planned economy, federally controlled, and it wanter to raise the standard of living in "backward" nations. Rock Chalk Talk By DIXIE GILLILAND **Food for Thought** — And that is just about all the Chi Omegas did get one night last week when the "Available Phi" Delts took over table waiting duties in pay-off to Marilyn Swweeney's bid at the Union carnival. Especially fetching was Jack Geish, immaculately clad in a size 32 waiter's jacket. As the Chi O's choked, "Fat Boy" obligingly entered with a gallon of vinegar under one arm, and two complete servings of everything for Sue Diggs under the other. Speaking of the Huberman surprise concert, we think Dean Swarthout has given a real clue as to why the violinist passed out. If we understand the Swarthout-Prog Allen debate aright, Mr. Huberman must have gotten a good look at Hoch's newly-painted floor. 审 A Little Polite Mud-Slinging—Sequel to the Gladys蓝皮, Bill "Big Time Oepatror" Ritt "pinning" climaxed Monday night after the Huberman concert. With all the best in mind (we're sure), BTO Ritt lifted his lady, clivally stepped into the muddy street, without the assistance of the legendary cape, and with great formality—dropped her in the middle of the puddle. We hear-tell Glad may have opportunity to use her own mud balls sometime soon, too, since Phi Psi brother, Dean Sims, sent the item about Sunday's "pinning" to the "Operator's" MU. girl. *** "Attack Slowed by Bad Weather" Not only was this story on the news quiz, it was the news quiz in Reporting II when the rains came early this week. Busily, Professor Reinhart hurried drenched reporters to class, paused while they shook out the water dripping down their noses onto test papers, and began again: Question two: "What was the significance of--" —and the innocent-looking umbrella open on the floor folded up with a gasp! No casualties. Speech class seems to be having its little difficulties these days, too. Came roll call: "Waite," "Here." "Wygle—Wygle?" No response. Finally George "Meekness" Waite, Phi Gam. offered, "I don't think he'll be here any more." "Not be here any more?" \* \* \* "Not be here any more?" "No, sir," the meek Waite repleid, "he's been drafted." *** Life's Little Problems — Dorothy Davis, Pi Phi, has her own variety, in the form of a disappearing front tooth. Caught in the usual rush just before the 8:20 whistle, Dorothy was brushing her teeth briskly, when her false front (tooth) came out and rolled down the drain. Determined to get her molar back or else, she attacked the pipes, armed with everything, including the sink. A little applied precision plumbing, with plenty of advice, and the tooth was back in place. (P.S. wonder if she made the 8:30?)

PENNEY'S FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1944 Jays Seek Revenge On Blues Tomorrow Thirsting for revenge, an undaunted Jayhawk five will take the floor against Washburn in Hoch auditorium tomorrow night. The Kansas basketball men, all 30 of them, showed no loss of spirit in practice last night in ironing on the ragged spots that the game with the Topekr team revealed. team revered. Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen, says that he will start about the same team that he used Monday night. "Doc" still places great faith in this season's youngsters, some of whom howed up well against the Ichabods. One item of general interest will be the appearance of Charlie Moffett on the starting five. Pyle Is Injured Pyle is injured Two promising forwards in the tall class (on this team that means anything over 6 feet) who haven't seen action this season are Jim Baska, a 17-year-old civilian, and Edwin Pile, V-12. Pile suffered a slight injury which took him out of the Wednesday workout practice. The Navy doctor, Lieutenant Brown, said this morning it was a contusion of the nose, but that it was not serious. Coach Allen assuring us that the injury won't prevent his playing tomorrow night. Javhawks on Strange Court The Jayhawkers will not have the edge usually ascribed to the home team, because the court in Hoch auditorium will be as new to them as to their opponents. Renovation of the floor has kept the Kansas cagers off the court during the entire pre-season practice schedule. Dee Errickson, Washburn Blue coach, has said that he was not surprised by the winning play of his team Monday night, and that he expects to put on the floor the same combination that upset the Jayhawkers. The determined Jayhawks are threatened by an ambitious group of eighteen men tomorrow night, hungry to make it two straight.

LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1944 42ND YEAR NUMBER 55 Volcano Islands Are Yank Target In All-out Attack International News Service Surface units of the Pacific fleet and a large force of American planes —including B-29's— have launched an all-out attack on Iwo Jima in the Japanese-held Volcano islands, the war and navy departments announced toy. A hundred B-29s dropped a record load of bombs and all returned safely. The war in the Pacific, meanwhile, blazed into increasing fury as American forces in the Philippines lashed out at the huge Japanese garrison on Leyte island from four sides. The encircling movement by Yanks on Leyte was made possible by a daring amphibious landing three miles south of Jap-held port of Ormac which caught the enemy flat-footed. Third and Seventh Armies Unite Shortly after a 13-ship Jap convey carrying numerous troop reinforcements was blasted to bits and a second Jap disaster occurred when Yank troops wiped out a force of 200 Nip paratroopers carrying demolition bombs. German Positions Taken in Italy Third and Seventh Armies Unite The U.S. Third army in Europe closed within three miles of Saarbrücken as it linked with the seventh army to isolate the Saar region from the rest of Germany. The advances were made in the face of terrific German resistance. In Italy, the British Eighth army expanded its bridgehead across the Lamone river while Fifth army forces captured several German positions. The Red armies in Hungary tightened their grip about Budapest and had seized Nazi communication routes into the capital from the south. Canceller Attends Two Meetings Chancellor Deane W.

Honshu Is Swept By Tidal Waves (International News Service) Part of the central Japanese home island of Honshu was swept by tidal waves and a subsequent landslide as a result of the mammoth earthquake which caused the entire world to tremble for more than six hours, Tokyo revealed yesterday. The epicenter of the staggering shock was in the Sea of Enshu off the southeast coast of Honshu on which Tokyo, Yokohama and the important naval bases of Osaka and Kobe are located the Japanese said. War Bond Queen Will Be Presented At Dance Tonight Tokyo sources minimized the damage, although the shock arched diagonally across the home island. One seismic expert declared, however, that if the shock was centered on Honshu the Japanese probably would have suffered a greater catastrophe than in 1935 when thousands were killed. Purchase of bonds and stamps at the War Bond dance tonight in the Military Science building will determine who will be the University War Bond queen. Beverly Jane Waters, head of the University War Bond drive, has announced that three bond tables will be set up on the dance floor. One of these three will be a table at which a student may present a signed statement or certificate from a state or national bank or other bond-issuing agency saying that the student has solicited a certain number of bonds from various people. This signed statement will entitle the holder to cast his votes for the queen. The other two tables will be for the direct sale of bonds and stamps. One vote will be allowed for each ten cent war stamp bought. The dance, following the K.U.-Washburn basketball game, will last from 9:15 to 12 p.m. The queen will be presented at 11:45 p.m. by Don Cousins, who will be master of ceremonies. All freshman and sophomores in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, whose names appear on the list which has just been posted opposite room 229 in Frank Strong hall, must meet with their faculty advisers either Monday or Tuesday of next week, Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College, has announced. The early 4-week report from the instructors will show students whether they are doing satisfactory work in their courses. The next report on grades will be made at mid-semester, Dean Ulmer said. A 25 cent war stamp is the price of admission. Jean O'Connor, administrative head of the University Bond drive, said that bond and stamp sales at booths in Fraser and Frank Strong halls have totaled more than $500. Underclassmen Must Meet With Advisers Next Week Legislators Back Churchill Policy In Greece, Italy Athens-(INS)Civil strife in the Greek capital continued unabated today as Prime Minister Churchill received a vote of confidence in the house of commons after bitter debate on British interference in the political crises. Churchill defended the use of British troops to subdue rioting on the grounds that the empire was pledged to uphold orderly government in Greece. At the same time Lord Halifax, British ambassador to the United States, called at the state department to convey the information that the British government retained its resolute position in Greece and Italy in the face of criticism from Secretary of State Stettinius. Organizations to Get Gift Bonds for Selling $25 Worth of Seals Twelve organizations asked for more stamps and bonds yesterday, Miss Joie Stapleton, chairman of the student Christmas seal drive, said today. Any organization that sells $25 worth of Christmas seals will receive a gift bond for that amount. If more than $25 worth are sold, they will receive a corresponding bond. The annual Christmas seal drive is progressing rapidly on the campus, and students are responding to the effort of the public relations council of the All-Student council to make the drive a success, Miss Stapleton said. The final check-in of the organizations and groups that are selling the Christmas seals will be sometime next week. The drive on the campus ends Dec. 15.

Student Opinion Panels Planned Semi-fermal student opinion panel discussions concerning current problems of University government are now in the planning stage. The purpose of the discussions will be to project prevailing student opinion in the form of constructive proposals to the administration and present student council. Also, the members of the panel feel that such an assembly will create stronger student interest in and spirit on campus issues. This action has met with full University endorsement, said Eric Eulich, Business junior. For the sake of temporary convenience, two panels will be organized, consisting of separate men and women's divisions. Periodically, a quorum of officers from each group will hold a joint panel to prepare and submit common constructive proposals into the proper channels. The policy of these panels will be (1) Diplomacy and temperance, not agitation (2) Representation of all cross sections of opinion (3) Disassociation from so-called Hill politics (4) organization simplicity. Students interested in participating in future panel discussions have been asked to contact Don Alderson, Eric Eulich, B. J. Nichols, or Eileen O'Connor. Vocations in Medicine Will Be Discussed Vocational opportunities for women in the field of medicine will be discussed at a meeting at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, December 13, in Frank Strong auditorium, Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College, announced today.

Basketball Fans Get First Glimpse Of Team Tonight Bulletin—Charlie Moffett, confined to the hospital with a recurrent blood poisoning, definitely will not play this evening, it was learned this noon. K. U. basketball fans will get their first glimpse of the "44-45" edition of the Crimson and Blue basketball squad when the Jayhawkers tangle with the Washburn Ichabods, in a return engagement on the Hoch-aurium boards at 7:30 this evening. Basketball followers may miss seeing the performance of one of Kansas' most promising first year men, however, as Owen Peck, diminutive hot shot forward, was confined to the hospital last night with a lung cold. Final word on whether the young star will start will be issued by Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, varsity coach, sometime this afternoon. Regular Liaenum to Be Used Otherwise, Allen plans to use almost the same five that wereEdged out by the Ichabods on the latter's home court last Monday evening. Exception may be the placing of Charlie Moffett in one of the forward slots. Moffett is the lone returning regular from last year's third place five. Other men due to see plenty of action are H. A. Heim, lanky rebounder who has been doing well in practices; Ed Pyle, tall V.12 who paced the Community league last winter; lettermen Lou Goehring and Dean Corder; and Jim Beska, Ward High school star last year.

TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1944 KANSAN COMMENTS Just How Good a Neighbor Can Argentina Be Considered? With the recent request for a conference of western hemisphere foreign ministers to hear and judge her case, Argentina again attracted the Latin American spotlight. The action has been attributed to the clever hand of Juan D. Peron, vice-president and war minister, and since that time American republics have continued to exchange views on the advisability of granting the new proposed hearing. One may wonder why Argentina, commonly considered Latin America's most bustling country, has been affected by Nazi influence more than any other of the resourceful and vulnerable South American nations. This may be traced first to the Argentine military system. For many years the national army has been trained by German military personnel; many of its top-ranking officers have taken special military courses in Germany or have served on the arms-buying commissions which Argentina maintained in the Reich between the two World Wars. It was this same group of Germantrained military leaders who staged the revolution that overthrew President Ramon S. Castillo on June 4, 1843. The primary reason for the request is obvious. Argentina finds herself today on the brink of diplomatic quarantine. This situation results from revealed pro-Nazi sentiments which American nations agree are not in keeping with the Rio De Janerio commitments that were designed to guarantee American solidarity as a bulwark against threatening footholds in South America. The people hailed the uprising joyfully, thinking that the time had arrived when dictatorial rule was suppressed but to their amazement, the presidency was vacated and filled gain in less than two days. Then Argentina and the United States disappointedly realized that the new government, in reality a military clique called the G.O.U., or "The Colonels," was less cooperative than the old one, and the hoped-for governmental decree, breaking off relations with the Axis was not to be issued. Actually, 'the Nazi-Fascist press, the same that had surrounded ex-President Castillo, daily promoted the official views. Depressed and irritated, 150 Argentine citizens addressed a manifesto to President Ramirez saying that the majority of the nation demanded effective democracy as provided in the national constitution. They also demanded American solidarity and freedom of assembly. The government immediately ordered these individuals dismissed from all university, scientific, and OFFICIAL BULLETIN UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Friday, Dec. 8, 1944 Notices due at News Room, Journalism Building, at 10 a.m. on day of publication. The University Housemothers Association will not meet until Monday, Jan. 8. Miss Carlotta Mellis, secretary. An official Kansan board meeting will be held at 4:30 p.m. Monday in room 107.

College freshmen and sophomores whose names are posted on the bulletin board opposite room 229, Frank Strong hall, must see their advisers Monday, Dec. 11, or Tuesday, Dec. 12. Ass't Dean of the College honorary posts which they held, and the Argentine minister of foreign affairs dispatched a note to then Secretary of State Cordell Hull. The note insisted that all Argentines had based their acts on firm democratic conviction; it defended the country's conduct in relation to the war; and it gave excuses for not having broken off Axis relations. Hull replied that the government and the people of the United States regretted that Argentina, by not having complied with its international obligations, was prevented from participating in the defense of the American continent and likewise in the studies, discussions, conferences, and settlements destined to solve the problem of the post war period. Possibly this refusal to admittance in postwar planning has compelled Argentine leaders to think twice. Latest reports reveal that more democratic rule is being practiced, and Mr. Peron insists that strict control has been exercised merely to dissolve and end the corrupt practices of the political parties in order to bring about national unity. With Secretary of State Hull's resignation, and a growing tendency among American nations favoring a grant of Argentina's request for a conference, it is yet possible that the "spoiled child" of South America will indeed become a "Good Neighbor."

He was a journalism major and affiliated with Sigma Delta Chi, honorary journalism fraternity, while attending the University. Don't forget the War Bond Drive, Dec. 1-8, and the CVC War Bond dance, Friday, Dec. 8. — BUY U.S. WAR BONDS — Rock Chalk Talk The Indiana Indians, better known as the FI Sighs, were up to their old tricks again one night this week—but this time on their own members, for a change. In the dead of the night, R. J. Atkinson, Earl Crawford, Gene Kittle, and Wayne Hird filled a wastebasket with paper, set it in the middle of the dour, poured a can of lighter fluid on the paper, tossed a match—and hastily left. Shouts of "Fire!" echoed throughout the house, and a hasty bucket brigade was organized. The persons whom the culprits hedn't succeeded in auring were unceremoniously routed out of bed. Jack Ramsey, who had wisely locked himself in his room, was serenaded with "I love you truly, J.A.R.-I wish you didn't have your key in your door." (Phi Psi poetry—such talent!) Needless to say, the new housemother, not knowing the Psis as we do, was a bit alarmed about the whole episode. Then there was the bright freshman who wanted to know who in the world was this Lois Common Demominator he'd been hearing so much about in class. Wallop Washburn! Wallop Washburn! Back when the Sour Owl had just made its appearance on the Hill, a campus male entered the Theta house to find Eileen Ainsworth engrossed in reading the publication, with pledge Ginny Winter peering interestedly over her shoulder. The fella, feigning horror, queried, "You don't mean to say that you let your pledges read such stuff?" To which Eileen replied, "Oh, well, it doesn't matter in Ginny's case. She doesn't know what it means, anyway." By PAT PENNEY Bob Elbel, V-12, who returned this week from a long stay at the Hutch Naval hospital, was welcomed back ceremoniously by his Delt brethren who had not seen him since he was seriously injured in jumping from a train. Bob, surrounded by the boys, was catching up on all the campus news and telling of his own adventures. Very unconcerned, Bob related that he had been in a wreck on the way back to KU, when the man he was riding with was run off the road by a truck—and Bob said, "Gee, you know, I might've been killed!"

A resolution declaring all forms of hazing a menace to the welfare of all educational institutions was passed at the 36th annual meeting of the National Interfraternity conference held in New York City, recently. Hazing Condemned By Frat Conference Held in New York The resolution was proposed by George Starr Lasher, director of the School of Journalism at Ohio University. Recently the University of Wisconsin chapter of Theta Chi was disciplined for paddling its pledges By placing the responsibility for prohibition and enforcement upon the local administrative officers, fraternity leaders hope that this will solve the problem. The question has been up before the group for several years and some of the group had already banned hazing before the resolution was passed. Bob Stewart, newly elected president of the Inter-Fraternity Council, said that the enforcement of the hazing rule on the University of Kansas campus would be left to the discretion of the individual fraternities. A request was also made that all violators of the resolution should be disciplined. Fraternities Will Enforce All form of mental and physical torture including paddling are to be included in the order banning all forms of hazing.

Centering around sorority life in wartime, the plot of "Tune In Yesterday" is filled with good dialogue. Zeta Beta Mu's problem of keeping its house open midst the confusion of the man shortage causes much worry for the all-girl cast, but will furnish laughs for their audience, according to Prof. Allen Crafton, playwright and director. Scenery for the play was designed by Professor Crafton. Although new materials, canvas, and paint are almost impossible to obtain because of wartime restrictions, he has patched and painted old scenery for the play. Most settings for amateur plays generally flap and wobble, giving an unrealistic appearance, but Professor Crafton guarantee that his scenery is built solidly. Because he did not want to rent or borrow furniture, he has also made a set of modern furniture for the play. Tickets may be purchased in the basement of Green hall from 9 a.m. to 12 a.m. and 1 to 4 p.m. Although there will be no reserved seats, activity book stubs must be exchanged for tickets. Five to Go To Colorado On Ski Trip Arrangements for the first project of the new winter sports club, a ski trip to Colorado during the Christmas holidays, are underway, according to Rudy Carl, co-chairman of the organization. Five members of the club have agreed to go on the trip and several other names may be added to the list later. Carl said. The trip was discussed at a meeting of students interested in skiing Thursday night. A meeting of the entire club has been planned for tomorrow night in the men's louge of the Memorial Union building. Time of the meeting has been changed from 7:30 until 7 o'clock, because of the play which will be presented later in the evening. The club will elect officers at this meeting. A meeting of the Emergency War Manpower council will be held at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday night, at the Chamber of Commerce. Dean F. T. Stockton said this morning that some proposals for increased part-time employment of University students may be presented. Skiing is fine on the campus now, carl said. The slope back of Frank Strong hall is an excellent place for beginners to learn the sport, and for more experienced skiiers to practice turns. Mannpower Council to Meet Snow Spices Campus Life HALLEY HALL Always about this time of year, when classes are becoming routine and life in general lacks that spark of variety—it snows. And whether you like snow or not, the whiteness, the cold, and the ice, coming for the first time in a year, present something new to think about. This year's snow started in on its first of six inches Saturday morning around 9 o'clock. And from 9 until 10 there was the excitement and thrill of, "It's snowing." Then until late in the afternoon we endured the trying middle stage; the snow wasn't deep enough for sledding, black spots were still uncovered, but the snow itself kept coming down. Saturday it fell diagonally making it virtually impossible to walk north. But the University students were few who figured this out and got off the bus at the Crown drug store to work south with their Christmas shopping. The snow seemed very wet Saturday afternoon; it still seems wet. Particularly when you have just participated in the now popular mass snow fight in which one fraternity or PT challenges an entire women's house to battle. British Troops Star Sweep Through Suburbs of Athens But with the wetness and the bruises and broken ankles there is the variety craved. For certainly it is variety when Pi Phi seniors are stuck in a snow drift between Kansas City and Lawrence during the first $2\frac{1}{2}$ hours of their open house—when a girl steals the show at the A.O. Pi open house with a new leg cast under her formal—when bob sleds skid around the Chi Omega circle taking a toll of three disabled students in one evening—and when students gather at the top of the steps by Battenfeld to watch Battenfelders, Theta's, Kappa's, and V-12's go down, because every other one will fall. Athens — (INS) — British forces started a large scale sweep through the eastern suburbs of Athens at dawn today in an all-out attempt to drive the left-wing rebels from the strife-torn capital. Hall Is Voted Queen Of CVC Bond Drive; Sales Total $84,432 Jo Ellen Hall, Alpha Chi Omega, was elected War Bond queen at the University War Bond dance Friday night in the Military Science building. This brought to a close the University War Bond drive, A large crowd of about 300 couples bought war bonds and stamps which gave Miss Hall 510,350 votes. The runners-up were Beverly Ballona, Alpha Delta Pi, who received 211,724 votes, and Eleanor Pack, Pi Beta Phi, with 32,921 votes. One vote was allowed for each ten cent war stamp purchased. The number of votes increased with higher bond denominations. The total amount of war bonds and stamps sold during the seventy-day drive, was $84,432.70, according to Beverly Jane Waters, head of the University Bond drive. This total includes all bonds and stamps bought by the Navy, those sold in the booths in Fraser hall and Frank Strong hall, and those purchased at the War Bond dance. The Navy purchases amounted to about $4,000, Miss Waters said. Don Cousins and his Navy band played for the dance with the assistance of Chief Gathings. Faculty members who sold stamps and bonds at the dance were: Miss Winona Bernard, Miss Veta B. Lear, Prof. J. J. Wheeler, Dean and Mrs. Henry Werner, Prof. Leslie Waters, Prof. Guy Smith, Prof. Elmer F. Beth, and Clifton Calvin of the business office. The success of this year's Bond drive was much greater than last year's drive, when bond and stamp sales totaled $19,000, Miss Waters stated. Yanks Capture Last Supply Port In Philippines International News Service The battle for the Philippines took a dramatic turn today as veteran U.S. troops seized the Leyte port of Ormuc, last Jap portal for reinforcements and supplies, and doomed the enemy forces on the southern flank of the Yamashita lines to death or capture. At the same time three other columns closed in on the big Jap area from the south, east and north in an all-out drive to clear strategic Lylete of the enemy, and to prepare for a new campaign against other occupied islands in the archipelago. The Tokyo radio meanwhile reported that American superfortresses swept over the Jap capital twice during the weekend. One raid hit the city last night and the second early today. A large crowd is expected for the annual Christmas Vespers which will be presented Sunday afternoon in Hoch auditorium by the School of Fine Arts, Dean D. M. Swarthout announced today. Four tableaux depicting Christmas scenes will be presented by the department of design and painting to accompany the music, he said. Advance on Durin and Zulich On Europe the American First army advanced more than a mile in twin fronts toward the vital Nazi strongholds of Durin and Juilich, as the Germans were reported bringing up strong reserves to counter a threatened drive by First said Ninth army units. Christmas Vespers To Be Given Sundav On the eastron front the all-out battle for Budapest is underway and Soviet columns are closing in on the capital from three directions as U.S. troops enter the battle. To the south, a hard-hitting Third army thrust another bridgehead across the Saar river and beat back two serious counter-attacks. Heavy fighting also was reported on the U.S. Seventh army front centered about 13 miles south of Strasbourg in the town of Hagenau. Other Seventh army troops drove a mile closer to strategic Colmar. Budapest Battle Continues In Italy, Germans knelt a crack reserve Panzer legion against the British closing in on Feenza but the counter-attack was driven back with heavy Nazi losses. Patrol skissler were the only activity on the First army sector. In addition to the candle light processional and recessional by the A Cappella choir of 90 voices, the choir will sing four choral numbers. The Symphony Orchestra will be heard in two numbers. Also included on the program will be a brass ensemble selection and a number played by 14 violins and two hamps. A free will offering will be taken during the service for the School of Fine Arts Scholarship fund, Dean Swarthout said. U. S. Builds Largest Airplane The United States is developing planes bigger than the B-29's. Three new type long-range airplanes for use in the Pacific war include the B-36, the largest airplane ever attempted in this country. TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS MONDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Panels Aid ASC In Charting Plan For More Service The meeting of the University All Student Council last week accomplished two things. The turnout of 150 students to the meeting proved again that persons on this campus are determined to maintain student government and the future of their council. The decision to carry out a survey of University teaching methods and teachers from the student standpoint, may turn out to be the most important step taken on the campus in years. The potential value of results from the action is enormous. Every co-operating student will answer significant questions about each of his teachers and courses, offering his appraisal of their effectiveness. The results will be studied, tabulated, and made available for student and faculty use. If specific and helpful criticisms are made, teachers will gain a view of themselves obtainable in no other way. Instruction of students is the main business of a state university; serious study of its effectiveness and of means to improve it is a vital step. Blunders have been made by the council, certainly, but they will be overcome. The A.S.C. Tuesday night decided on immediate, worthwhile objectives of value to both faculty and students. A representative student committee, which will submit its views on proposed immediate curriculum changes at the Dec. 12 faculty meeting, was formed, at the meeting Tuesday night. A five-member committee at present, it will be enlarged into subcommittees so that student opinion on the question can be taken for final faculty decision. Student government is being strengthened in other ways, too. Already panel discussion groups of students outside the A.S.C. are meeting to talk over student problems. Such discussions will project representative student opinion on university issues into the proper channels. Constructive proposals of the panels will be submitted to both the administration and the student council. Another step in the right direction, the panels should result in greater understanding of the issues at stake. Constructive government of student affairs is the aim of the A.S.C. With a slate full of commendable objectives, and with students unified behind it, the council is moving forward.—E.B. Spanish Club To Have Party Wednesday The annual Spanish club Christmas party will be held at 7:30 Wednesday evening at the home of W. H. Shoemaker, professor of romance languages. Those eligible for membership in the Spanish club, who have not yet paid their dues, are asked to do so before coming to the parties.

Those planning to attend the party have been asked by Miss Elliott to sign a list in room 117 of Frank Strong hall before 4:30 this afternoon. Pina Dias Gomez is in charge of the program. There will be group singing and several games. Max and Eduardo Marques will give a skit. The officers of the club elected at the last meeting, are Louise Hatch, president; Pina Gomez, vice-president; and Jose Fortquez, secretary. BUY U.S. WAR BONDS Rock Chalk Talk Dear Ritt. old boy---mate, Al Ballinger, wanted to make him more comfortable with a little red-hot pepper in his pajamas. Poor Bob scratched, kicked the blankets, and scratched some more. Without a word, he got up, took a shower, and then put the pajamas back on.

Windows on the second floor are so difficult. Also, Bill darling, even the Pi Phi porch swing won't swing on a star if it hasn't got hooks. I was waiting for you; even the window was unlocked. It was sweet of you to bring your little brother Phi Psi's along, but I couldn't understand why they all wore long underwear. However, I'm glad you got stuck in the second floor gutter. Love. Love. Nancy Reed. The orchid of the week goes to Rolli Pettitt, Kappa Sig, who has his means of getting a date, and it works, too. The other night our boy was bragging that he could get a date with any girl on this campus when a fellow PT-6er offered the name of Frances Lawrence, Theta, and to eat his hat if she accepted. At least Rolli's line is unique with this fortune teller's idea of a new man taking over in Frances' life. (Incidently, Rolli's last name is Pettitt, spelled with four t's, because his mother was scared of a T stamp). Within 5 minutes he had agreed to pull alongside about that time Friday night. How was it? Frances? $64 question: How do hats taste nowadays? Do you know Bob Ellsworth, Beta, in PT-9?

Marie Wilkins to Give Recital February 5 Marie Wilkins, distinguished Lawrence soprano, has been engaged by D. M. Swarthout, manager of the concert course, to give a recital on Monday evening, February 5th. Mrs. Wilkins is the wife of J. F. Wilkins, professor of voice at the University. Marie Wilkins won immediate national fame two years ago, when with 48 hours notice she stepped into the title role of "Lakme" at the Metropolitan Opera house as a substitute for the world famous soprano, Lily Pons, who became ill. After the performance her success was heralded all over the country. She was made a member of the Metropolitan Opera company, an honor accorded to few singers. Mrs. Wilkins is engaged this season in an extensive concert tour that has already taken her from coast to coast and into Canada. Her success in Lawrence last year as the opening attraction in the University concert series was sensational and Dean Swarthout has had repeated requests that she be brought back. This attraction will be a complimentary addition to the regular University concert series for all season ticket holders and for those students having an activity ticket, as a donation on the part of the management for the necessary cancellation of the last half of the Huberman concert last Monday evening. Mr. Huberman, renowned violinist, was unable to finish his program because of illness. John Chalfant Awarded Air Medal At British Station Lt. Col. John S. Chalfant, 27, of Bucklin, Kansas, who is serving with the veteran 306th Bombardment Group in England as a squadron commander, has been awarded the Air Medal for "exceptionally meritorious achievement," it was recently announced.

The narrow margin of triumph over the Ichabods last Friday indicates that the Crimson and Blue will be in for a tough battle tomorrow evening, though the Hawks are as yet untested in matched play. Again almost the entire squad will make the trip, leaving for the game tomorrow afternoon at 1:00 p.m. First Half Close The Jayhawks started slowly in the Blue contest, but picked up momentum to hold a 12-6 lead mid-way in the first half. Blue stars Lloyd Krone and Bob Ulrich then hit consistently, to bring the Topeka five up to within two points of the Crimson and Blue as the half ended, 14-12. At the start of the second period Gib Stramel, fancy shooting Blue center from Hays, netted three pointers in a row to bring the Ichabinsy into a 18-14 lead Gordon Reynolds, part of "Phog" Allen's completely new team that started the second half, and Norman "Whitey" Carlson then hit a pair to knot the count at 19-19 all. The score again stood tied at 21 and 22-all, but the Blues were never again in the lead. An exchange of shots in Kansas' favor put the Crimson and Blue at a 29-27 advantage, and Everett at a 29-27 advantage, and Everett a freshman guard from Lawrence high school, slipped in a bucket to ice the contest. Hill was the only Jayhawker to go the entire route. Reynolds Plays Well Reynolds Playoff Reynolds, Carlson, and Hill all played outstanding games for the Jayhawks. Although having been out for basketball only a few days, Reynolds entered the game at the half and was the pillar of the Kansas defense during the first period. Charles Moffett, K.U. regular last year, was not able to suit up for the game because of a skin infection, and Owen Peck, high scoring forward, played only a few minutes of the game on account of a severe cold. Carlson was high for the Jayhawks with eight points, while Stramel netted ten for the Blues. Allen used seventeen men in the contest in an attempt to give all his squad a work-out before the opening conference game on January 5 with Missouri.

Your Local Bus Service Sportorials BY EARL BARNEY, KANSAN SPORTS EDITOR Although they are not world beaters in any sense of the word, the Jayhawks looked better than your columnist had expected in their victory over the Washburn Ichabons on the Hoch auditorium boards Friday night. Gordon Reynolds was especially outstanding, considering the big rebounder had been working out only a few days. Give the tall Tacoma, Wash., forward a few games to get the football blood out of his veins, and he is certain to develop into a real rebounder. Norman "Whitey" Carlson showed tremendous improvement over his initial performance of the year as he led the 'Hawk scoring Friday night. That the lanky blond was in there fighting all the time, was shown by the severe cut over the eye which he received in the fourth quarter. ** Big Six stuff—The Iowa State Cyclones served notice the other night that they will be all out for the Big Six cage title as they eked out a 42-41 victory over the University of Minnesota. This Wednesday night the Whirlwinds will tie into the Iowa Seahawks in a rugged affair that may prove the Staters' stiftest test of the season. Kansas State, losers to Great Bend Army air base and Ft. Riley, run into the Washburn Ichabods this evening in a game that is doped as close. The Aggies showed a definite scoring punch to be reckoned with as they dropped a heartbreaker to Great Bend, 54-51, Saturday night, while the Blues have shown defensive power in their two games against the Jayhawks, Scorei of Missouri, Nebraska, and Oklahoma openers have not reached this desk as yet, but should soon. - * * Keep your eye on the basketball double header to be played in the Kansas City municipal auditorium December 22 and 23. Five state universities, Kansas, Kansas State, Missouri, Colorado, and Nebraska, will be in action on those two evening. Kansas will meet Kansas State on the first night of play, and will tangle with the potent Missouri Tigers the next evening.

Committee Makes Study The Post-war Planning Committee of the conference was instructed to make a study of the specific problems resulting from post-war conditions, such as the return to the college of ex-service men, the matriculation of mature students, compulsory military training and to make specific recommendations for meeting the situations covered by the report. Several conferences on post-war plans for fraternities already have been held by the local council, Stewart said. Officers Announced Newly elected officers of the Inter-Fraternity Council at K.U. are: Bob Stewart, Sigma Nu, president; R.J.Atkinson, Phi Kappa Psi, vicepresident; Bob Ramsey, Phi Gamma Delta, secretary; Art Neusbaum, Phi Delta Theta, treasurer; and Bob Beuchel, Delta Upsilon, representative to A.S.C.Bob Ramsey has submitted his resignation as secretary of the organization.

NUMBER 57 Tracey Enters Lawrence Hospital Germans Suffer Reverses Today On Two Fronts (International News Service) The Germans suffered bitter reverses on two fronts today as the U.S. First army smashed to the west bank of the Roer river along a 2-, 600-yard front, while Soviet forces drove into the outskirts of Budapest. The First army forced the Germans out at least five villages in the Roer drive and blasted its way to within a mile of Duren, the main rameaining obstacle on the road to Cologne. Meanwhile, the U.S. Seventh army mounted a broad attack along a 20-mile front between the lower Vosges area and the Rhine and advanced toward the Siegfried line in gains up to five miles. The Nazis reported that the American Seventh had launched a new offensive along a 65-mile front against the Seigfried line. The Third army beat off Nazi thrusts again the Yank bridgehead in the Saar river, and the Yanks rolled forward to within a mile of Rimlingen. In the Philippines, U.S. infantry divisions closed in on Japanese forces in the southern sector of the Yamashita line on Leyte island and destroyed them. Japs Destroyed at Yamashita Other Yank forces drove north of captured Ormoc in an all-out assault against the isolated Jap garrison being compressed in wesetr Leyte. RAF Bombs Hamburg, Hanover In the air, RAF mosquito bombers blasted Hanover and Hamburg in night raids and the German air raid warning service reported allied bombers over western Hungary and lower Austria today. The German laufwaffe went into action on the Italian front, attacking positions along the entire length of the sector held by the U.S. Fifth army. More tuberculosis Christmas seals have been received at the office of Miss Joie Stapleton in Robinson gym, Eugenia Hepworth, chairman of the campus seal drive, announced last night. Representatives from the 43 organized houses, who are assisting in the campaign, may secure more seals today. The Tokyo radio reported that B-29 bombers based in the Marianas had made four trips over the Japanese mainland between midnight and 7 a.m.-Japanese time-today. Response to the drive so far has been good, Miss Hepworth said, and several houses have sold $25 worth of seals, which entitles them to a $25 war bond. No definite figure can be given yet, according to Miss Hepworth, since most of the money has not been turned in. More Seals Received For Campus Drive The campus drive, which is being sponsored by the public relations committee of the All-Student Council, will end Friday. To Speak Tonight M. JOHNSON Eliot Janeway, feature editor of Fortune magazine, and authority on domestic affairs, will lecture at 8:20 tonight in Hoch auditorium on "Reconversion to Prosperity." Dr. Ise Completes Economics Text Book After 13 Years Work Dr. John Ise's textbook, "Economics," will be published next spring, "the war permitting." Dr. Ise said this morning that the last installment of the book on elementary economics has been sent to the publishers. The main feature in the book is a general discussion of (continued to page two) Athens—(INS)—Left-wing militia men battled the British today from new positions seized in the capital of Athens. The armed units opposing the Greek government seized half a dozen more buildings, barricaded them, and mounted machine guns on the roofs. The situation throughout Greece was described as uneasy. Greeks Fight British From New Positions Special Christmas music, tableaux, and a Christmas narrative will be featured at the Christmas meeting of the Y.W.C.A., Tuesday, Dec. 19. at the Methodist church. The meeting, which will begin at 7:30, is open to anyone interested in attending, Betty Pile, who has charge of the meeting, has announced, but it is planned especially for members of the Y.W. C.A. The British brought in more troops in an effort to quel the rebellion and again sent planes into action to blast Elas strong points north and west of Athens. Y.W.C.A. to Feature Christmas Program At Meeting on Dec. 19 Coeds Get Bronx Cheer As Five GI's in France Answer KU "Fag" Fiends The drama commission of the organization, under the direction of Patsy Creel, will have charge of the tableaux, which depicts scenes in five Christmas carols. Living pictures will be presented of the angels, the shepherds, the manger scene, the wise men, and a choir of children. 'Mary Jo CoX is in charge of music for the program. Virginia Alexander will play a violin solo and Ruth Russell will sing. Crittenden Miller, organist, will also play. After putting in a hard day, we decided to relax by reading the Stars and Stripes, and the first article that caught our eyes was your gripping which was small — oh, yes, very small. Dear Corncob-girls: The letter: $31 \%$ Foxhole, Wheatfield Ave., Muddy Road Drive, France From a foxhole in southern France recently came a veritable Bronx cheer directed at the University of Kansas coeds. This long distance "boo" was in the form of a letter, addressed to KU women and signed, "Lucky, Joe, Eddie, Johnny, and Leo." Accompanying the letter was a package containing pipe tobacco, matches, and cigarettes, supposedly to help the campus cuts out of the plight caused by the current cigarette shortage. The five GI's, it seems, had read an article in Stars and Stsipes which featured the idea that Kansas university women are having to smoke corncob pipes because of the lack of cigarettes. The indignant soldiers, surmising that the girls from the Sunflower state were gripping louder than anyone else, gave vent to a long-time accumulation of wrath in a far from complimentary epistle to Mt. Oread fems. (continued to page four) So after a little trouble, we finally sent the package. Oh, yes—a little remembrance. We are not complaining, but those cigarettes were our last ones until tomorrow. Of course, we don't need them—we are just fighting—giving our lives for our country. What are you giving? Oh, yes, bitching. Well, that's a lot. We're glad to receive something to boost our morale. So we got together, just we three, and started to do something to aid you. Oh, you poor distressed girls, educational girls, gee! Just think—coeds—and from patriotic Kansas. Starting by opening our K-Rations, we took our cigarettes, our precious cigarettes, and our one pack of tobacco and wanted to mail them immediately to you poor coeds. But it was raining so hard and then we had to wait for paddles to canoe to the other end of our foxhole to find wrapping paper and a stamp. By the way, how was that movie last night, and that hot dinner in that warm cafe? We had cold C and K-Rations, and cold coffee with mud for dessert. It seems a shame that you must smoke a cornbone pipe, but if it will make you girls happy, we will give all our smokes to keep you and your 4-F's from being dejected and completely ignored, Poor, Lecture and Campus Comedy Vie For Spotlight Tonight When Both Hoch and Fraser Will Draw Crowds Janeway Will Speak On Post War Plans Eliot Janeway, headline attraction on the Community Lecture series, will speak on "Reconversion to Prosperity" at 8:20 tonight in Hoch auditorium. The lecture was originally scheduled to be held in Fraser theather, but the play, "Tune in Yesterday" will be held there, so the place of the lecture was changed. He is a well known authority on post war reconversion in the United States. He has taken the measure of the country's present and post war capacities in the economic field, and of the nation's basic thinking on the most current issues. At this time he is preparing a book analyzing the political, social, and economic rises threatening in the United States. Mr. Janeway was scheduled to speak ast night at the University, but was delayed in Chicago because of unfavorable weather conditions. Women May Organize Discussion Group If it is possible, Mr. Janeway will devote time after the formal lecture to answering questions of the audience. Organization of the Women's Panel Discussion group was discussed at a meeting in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building last night. In order to represent a cross-section of University students, one representative from each organized house, and three from the unorganized houses, will be chosen. Officers will include a chairman, recording secretary, and a publicity chairman. The representatives in the houses may be rotated; however, the officers will be permanent. Eric Eulick explained in detail conclusions which college men had reached in their panel discussion. Dec. 1. He was introduced by Eileen O'Connor, who acted as temporary chairman. Houses represented were Alpha Delta Pi, Chi Omega, Delta Gamma, Kappa Alpha Theta, Corbin Watkins, Miller, and Campus house. The next meeting is scheduled at 4:30 p.m. Dec. 15. Hershey Warns Men To Get Essential Jobs Washington — (INS) — Selective Service Director Louis B. Hershey warned all physically able men in the 26-37 group to get into vital employment immediately or prepare for induction into the armed forces. The war production board urged nationwide adoption of a man power lend lease under which commercial institutions would lend white collar workers to critical war industries for ninety days. Condition of Hannah Oliver Is Reported Satisfactory The condition of Miss Hannah Oliver, oldest University alumna, who is at the Lawrence Memorial hospital suffering from a fractured hip, was reported as fair today. Actresses Will Give Play at Fraser Hall As the lights dim and the curtain rises in Fraser theater at 8:15 tonight, the cast of "Tune in Yesterday" will appear in its first performance. Prof. Allen Crafton, playwright and director said that if "Tune in Yesterday" has a plot in the ordinary sense, he has failed to discover it. However, the comedy deals with the confusion which Zeta Beta Mu's faces during wintime in attempting to keep its house open. The climax is reached when the Zeta Beta Mu's are forced to ask their hated cousin the OB Mu's to move into their house. But, one of the Zeta Beta Mu's returns to school, and they have the quota without the OB Mu's. The story of the The scene of the play is set in the living room of the Zeta Beta Mu sorority house. Stage setting and furniture have been designed and made by Professor Crafton. Included in the cast are 14 women who portray sorority members, the housemother, rushes, and abnorme. All of the cast are well suited for their parts, according to a statement by Professor Crafton. Even though K.U. students are not of the caricatured variety in the play, Professor Crafton said that certain resemblances may be discovered by the audience. Inventing a sorority for his characters, the playwright has devised a crest, symbols, secret words, and even a chapter song. "Zeta Pearls" combines all of the worst elements of many of the sorority songs with the typical mournful melody, according to Professor Crafton. Tickets may be purchased in the basement of Green hall. Although there will be no reserved seats, activity stubs must be exchanged for tickets. Alumnus Nominated To High State Office Gen. Julius C. Holmes, formerly of Lawrence, has been nominated by President Roosevelt to serve as one of the new assistant secretaries in the State department recently created by congressional legislation. General Holmes has been an assistant to the army chief of staff at supreme allied headquarters. He was a student in the College from 1917 to 1922 and was enrolled in the Student Army Training company in the last World War. General Holmes is a son of Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Holmes. 637 Tennessee street. He is affiliated with Sigma Chi fraternity. Vocations in Medicine To Be Discussed Tomorrow Vocational opportunities for women in the field of medicine will be discussed at a meeting at 4:30 tomorrow in Frank Strong auditorium. Nursing, occupational therapy, and medical technology will be included in the discussion. The meeting is open to all University women interested in the vocational opportunities in medicine. TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS War Christmas Will Not Mar Peace Message With the snow, the Christmas spirit descended on the Hill suddenly. It looks like the white Christmases everyone dreams of now, and decorations, Christmas trees, and carols have begun to have some meaning. meaning. In war years, celebration of any srt is curtailed quite understandably, and Christmas especially, with its message of peace and good will, may seem out of place. Cynicism and bitterness creep in when we think of the entire world at war, driven by hatred and misunderstanding. The "Bah, humbug" attitude of Scrooge at the beginning of "A Christmas Carol" is more or less a common one this year. Why take time for Christmas when we are winning the war? is the argument. Yes, we will win the war, but what about the peace? Why do we remember Christmas, anyway? It is the birthday of the Prince of Peace, although the actual day almost 1912 centuries ago caused little rejoicing. Most men of that time remembered that season of that year because of the widespread taxation ordered by Caesar Augustus. Caesar's word was law. The world now is not as dark in many respects as the one into which Christ was born. Although the perfect solution to any one problem may be evasive many of our mistakes have caused improvements. Christmas symbolizes faith, hope, and love, and its peace must be an inner feeling before it is an international condition. Long after the world accepts- the Christian teachings in word, the application to everyday actions will be difficult. Christmas will be less hilarious, with less of merry-making and light-heartedness than if the war were over; but it might be a time for faith in the Christmas spirit, for hope for a better world, and for love for all humanity. While giving our all for the war effort, we should remember that the peace will have longer-lasting effects. Meeting Indicates Interest in Debate After 12 students attended the debate meeting in Green hall Thursday night Prof. E. C. Buehler, of the department of speech and drama, is confident that college students are still interested in the vital issues of the day. Questions of compulsory arbitration of labor disputes, lowering of the voting age to 18, and a subject to be selected by the Missouri Valley league, are the three topics which will be debated this year, Professor Buehler said. Leeta Marks, College senior, and Sarah Marks, College junior, will represent K.U. at a debate conference at the University of Missouri on Jan. 10. The debate question is "Resolved, that the voting age be lowered to 18." owered to 10 Speech students will compete in debating, extemporaneous speaking, and oratory at an over-all speech tournament in March, Professor Buehler said. Bureau Distributes 15,000 Reels Bureau of Disaster Management More than 15,000 reels of motion pictures were distributed last year to an audience of 3,600,000 by the bureau of visual instruction of the University extension division. Schools, colleges, civic clubs, religious organizations and industrial groups throughout the state use these films. Rock Chalk Talk A hero bites the dust— Big league football game: Friday Dec 8: Theta KAT's vs Pt.-6 Wolves! It looked like a sure thing for the Wolves, what with Al Chulepnik at center (veteran of the Podunk Polecat's championship team). The irresible power and classic formations of "Flash" Yingling and "Slug" Maloney at halfback and "Demon" O'Conner at wingback, however, proved our hero's undoing. Looking from "back to back" as he charged down the field, Al got all tangled up with a tree. By JOAN HARRIS P. S. The "sure thing" came to in time to present the cherished trophy to the KATs. Cold storage- 赤 赤 赤 Fijis are giving Thetas the "ice" these days. Lying in wait for their prey Friday night, the Phi Gams lurked behind Theta furniture until most of the "kite" girls were within, then, screeching and howling as all good Fijis should, they dumped a household full of KATs into the snow and kept them there until 25 "snowmen" yelled "Uncle."

ISE COMPLETES - capitalism Approximately one-third of Professor Ise's book is an appraisal of capitalism and the reasons it is not Let's net get technical- Margie Shipley, Sigma Kap, resolved to buy her dad a shirt for Christmas, and accordingly toddled into a Lawrence store for that purpose. When the clerk asked her what size her dad wore. Margie stuttered around for a minute and came out bravely with "Well-I guess dad would wear about a 38." *** It was the clerk's term to stutter and turn pink. Finally he said, "I believe you're slightly confused. You see, men's shirts are ordered by neck size, not by--er--er--". "The system has broken down almost all over the world.

"The economic system has developed faults," Dr. Ise said, "which prevent it from working effectively. I am trying to find reasons it has not worked better.

Dr. Ise explained that he has been working on his book for nearly 13 years, "I wanted to systematize my own ideas on the matter," was his reply when asked whey he had written the text. He said that his next project will be a study of small-town businesses and small towns. Something must be done to stop their decline, he believes, because one of the theories of a capitalistic society is that small towns and small businesses are needed. "They are the backbone of any successful capitalistic economy," he said, "and no problem is more important than that of maintaining their prosperity."

B.G HOSIERY SHOPS 917 Mass FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12. 1944 Jayhawks to Meet Rockhurst Tonight The Jayhawkers journey to Kansas City tonight, to meet Rockhurst college at 8:30 o'clock in the Municipal auditorium. Coach "Phog" Allen's starting five will be a powerful team, most of whom saw action in the victory over Washburn here Friday night. Charlie Moffett, who was released from the hospital last night, is slated at the center spot. At guard, Everett Hill and Herbert Heim, both of whom were fast and steady in the game against the Ichabods, will start; the forwards in the lineup will be Gordon Reynolds, suffering but not hampered by a stone bruise, and Whitey Carlson. Reynolds and Carlson Outstanding Reynolds and Carlson Outstanding Carlson and Reynolds have been outstanding in the Jayhawkers' two previous starts. Reynolds snatched the rebounds in the second Wash- burn game, and the white haired boy, Carlson, was hot on the basket —netting 8 points, high for the evening. According to Dean Nesmith, the eighteen men that will make the trip are Guy Aschcraft, C. Aylward, Jim Esska, Jim Briley, Norman Carlson, Dean Corder, G. A Daum, Jim Greath, Herbert Heim, Everett Hill, C. M Langford, Charles Moffett, E. Peterson, Gordon Reynolds, Kirk Scott, Odd Williams, Harry Woerner, and Owen Peck. Hawks Have High Hopes Coach Lew Lane's Rockhurst Hawks have their hopes up for a good season and will be eager to start it off right. They have about the same thing to offer in style and material, plenty of youth and fair height. The starters for the Kansas City team will be picked from the following six: Brahm Gehe, Jim Bassem, Mel Pace, Gil Bourk, George Fitzsimmons and Jim Quinian. Gehe who was high scorer in for the Lilli'i in the Catholic High schools league in Kansas City, will be expected to shine for the Hawks. Besides Dr. Allen, Elmer Schaake, assistant coach, Dean Nesmith, trainer, and Earl Falkenstein, athletic association secretary, will accompany the team to Kansas City. Y.W.C.A. Organizes Two Commissions Two new YWCA commissions, one to study the records of the life of Jesus and the other to discuss the problems of the wounded veteran and the civilian, are being started this week. Marjorie Bentley, College senior from the state of Washington, will lead the study of the records of the life of Jesus, which meets at 7:30 tonight-in Henley house. "The Veteran and You" will have Mary Ellen Halstead, College junior from New Jersey, as its leader. The latter commission will begin with a luncheon meeting at 12:30 Thursday in Henley house. Reservations for the luncheon should be made with Rachel VanderWerf at Henley house by Wednesday night, Miss Halstead said. Both Miss Bentley and Miss Halstead say that their commissions are still open to any woman interested, and they hope that women on YWCA committees who would like to attend weekly meetings will join. "The Veteran and You" intends to discuss and try to find solutions for personal problems of the members of the group as well as study the postwar planning being done for veterans. Mrs. Harold Pepinsky, wife of the vocational guidance director and a psychologists herself, will be in the group, Miss Halstead said. BUY U.S. WAR BONDS Interviews Voted Legal in Big Six Big Sixfathers voted to legalize interviews and initial correspondence in their annual meeting Saturday after years of hesitancy about the subject. subject. The faculty representatives of the six schools finally acceded to complaints from Big Six coaches that the better boys went to greener pastures because of the conference ban on any attempt to sell prospective athletes on the merits of a Big Six school. As a substitute for the ancient ruling, the faculty fathers have proposed a plan for an athletic scholarship program to be started as soon as possible. The full text of the statement on the subject issued by the representatives is: "A members school may initiate correspondence and may initiate interviews with prospective athletes, provided, however, that loans, scholarships and remissions fees shall be available to athletes only on the same terms and conditions as said loans, scholarships and remission of fees are available to non-athletes at the said member school." Other new resolutions included a return to the four official custom in fotball games, and the ruling that only seniors may take part in all-star games. E. C. Quigley, director of athletics, and Dr. W. W. Davis, professor of history, were the representatives of the University of Kansas at the meeting. Two Pictures Added To K.U. Hall of Fame Two more autographed pictures of famed musical artists were added last week to the University Hall of Fame collection in the lobby of Hoch auditorium. Marian Anderson, colored contralto, who sang at the University in 1938, and Caroll Glenn, violinist, who appeared on the annual Young American Artist porgram, have both sent signed photos dedicated to the School of Fine Arts. The collection in Hoch auditorium is a valuable and important one of musical celebrities containing the autographed pictures of such artists as Paderewski, Kreisler, Rachman-inoff, Heifetz, Schumann-Heink, Lawrence Tibbett, John Charles Thomas, Richard Crooks, Mischa Ehlman, and Percy Grainger.

We just can't sleep since we read your article, patriotic girls from Kansas. COEDS GET---in your own position. Delta Tau Delta lost to Kappa Sigma, 28-27, in the closing minutes of one of the two 7:30 games. The Delt's were ahead of the Kappa Sig's 27-24, with only two minutes to play, but two quick field goals finally decided the contest. In the other battle, Dick's Demons had everything entirely their own way in winning out over SAE, 23-9. Answer if you aren't too embarrassed—or don't girls from Kansas embarrass? Perhaps we all gripe too much—but then it's an old American custom and one of the things for which Lucky and his buddies are fighting.

No. 80 c/● Postmaster New York, New York Eight Basketball Teams Open 1944 Intramural A wide variety of scores and sit uations featured the opening of the 1944-45 intramural basketball season in Robinson gymnasium last night in four well-played games. Princess Elizabeth Launches Ship Princess Elizabeth recently launched Britain's greatest battleship. The Residence halls nudged out the Phi Gam's 18-17 while Kappa Alpha Psi won easily over the TKE's, 33-13, in the last two contests of the evening. In the first game the Residence halls led all the way, though the gap between the two teams was never very large. With but thirty seconds yet to play, the Phi Gam's got two shots at the basket, but were able to hit neither of them. Saffell and Kaufman hit six points each for the hall team, while Turner countered the same amount for the losers. The slow TKE's were no match for the speedy Kappa Alpha Psi's colored fraternity, in the other late battle. The smaller K.A. Psi's literally ran around and through the battling TKE's to lead by a considerable margin throughout the contest. Snow Puts Shoppers In the Mood "Pardon me, may I borrow your finger," —and so while you have your thumb all bound up in the ribbon on a present for someone's Aunt Hattie, you realize that it is time you, too, got organized. For those who have to be in the mood to get the Christmas spirit (where was that again), Saturday's snow has helped add the jingle bells touch. Of course, shopping isn't very hard this year. Stores have at least two of this article; more often none of that. Uncle Izzy never has worn argyle socks, but that's all they have, and maybe he'll give them back to you. Grandmother will flip when she sees the black chiffon nightie, but you have to give her something. And as for Jim down in Camp Godforget, well, what do you get a fellow in the service? Suppose that shoe shining kit will be too unexciting? But the packages have to get in the mail, unless someone believes that Santa is going to pick them up and shoot them down the chimney. According to the post office officials here on the campus, it's high time for Christmas remembrances to catch the pony express. The office has been pretty busy handling packages, but for prompt delivery they advise you to get the rest on their way. There will be the inevitable necessity for last minute shopping—the present that arrives from some soul you never dreamed would give you anything. As you fight your way through crowded aisles and frantically scan depleted counters, you will wonder what was so wise about the Wise Men who started this gift giving joy. Canadian Airport Used by AAF A 7-million-dollar airport, located in Canada and described as the largest in area in North America, is being used by the United States army air forces. Sportorials B. EARL BARNEY, KANSAN SPORTS EDITOR Bv EARL BARNEY, KANSAN SPORTS EDITOR Phog's Third Combination--year-old freshman halfback at the University of Illinois, is slated to leave soon with a group of other Negro athletes on a U.S.O. tour of the fighting fronts. Young announced recently that he had left school and expects to visit London, Cairo, and Paris. The freshman has passed his pre-induction physical examination, but has not been called for military service. Again, as was the case last year, "Phog" Allen has done a lot of experimenting in hopes of finding a winning combination on the basketball court. Tonight against Rockhurst he will be starting the third different lineup in as many games. In the first game of the current season against Washburn, Allen sent "Whitey" Carlson, Kirk Scott, Jim Brilley, Owen Peck, and Everett Hill against the Blue five, and the combination did not fare too well, perhaps from lack of collegiate experience. Last Friday night against the same team "Doc" started Hill, Carlson, and Briley as usual, but Herb Heim and letterman, Lou Goehring, received the starting call, too "Phog" worked 17 men into the game, using all possible sorts of combinations, and the Jayhawks finally came from behind to edge out the game Ichabod five. For tonight Allen has another new lineup. Hill and Carlson will be the boys from the original five who will start, Heim is a holdover from last Friday starters, while Gordon Reynolds, co-hefer of the recent Washburn fray, and Charlie Moffett, KU. regular last season, would round out the five this time. This last combination has possibilities of becoming the most potent of any arrangement that Allen can muster. Owen Peck, high scoring forward, will surely see action during the game, as will Scott and Briley. * * Scanning the news — Washburn dropped its contest to Kansas State by the close score of 33-27 last night at Topeka. The Staters went into an early lead and were never behind, although the Blues threatened in the closing minutes of the game. Don Pierce (Topeka Capital) writes that the Ichabods were not in the same form that they showed against the Jayhawks, and that their shots just weren't connecting.

He was cited for planning and executing the successful neutralization and bringing under United States control 22 outlying enemy-held atolls and islands in the Marshalls group. Writer Believes Russia and U.S. Will Lead World Russia and the United States will be the dominating powers after the war, declared Eliot Janeway in his speech in Hoch auditorium last night. Mr. Janeway, special writer for Life and Fortune magazines and former business editor for Time, took the measure of the country's present and postwar capacities in the economic field and the nation's basic thinking on most current issues. He also examined the position of the United States in the war and in the post-war world. "The problem of doing business with Russia on a world scale is the first thing we shall have to solve after the war," said Mr. Janeway. He explained that Russia's problem is to find enough people to rebuild and re-establish the country. "We must learn to work with Russia, and by that cooperation we will learn the way to win our problem with unemployment." Mr. Janeway said that when Russia and the United States cannot work out a working plan of cooperation, a unified world will begin to separate and the time to prepare for World War III will have come. Admiral Bernhard attended the University from 1903 to 1905. During that time he was prominent in football and basketball. He received his appointment to Annapolis in 1905 and was graduated from there in 1909. Rear Admiral Alva D. Bernhard, Lawrence, who commanded the Marshall islands sub area from February to October of this year, was awarded the Legion of Merit Nov. 30. The former business editor of Time went on to say, however, that he really felt very cheerful about the future. "I see every reason for these two great powers to agree on coming world questions," he said. "Russia desires a policy of good friendship with the United States because she wants to have our help in rebuilding herself from this war." On the American problems of reconversion from wartime industry to that of peacetime, Janeway commented that too few of the American peoples are brave enough to face the future with the courage needed to make it successful and prosperous. "Russia definitely has the advantage over us in regard to facing the future," Mr. Janeway stated. "We are afraid of the new challenge the new world offers us," he said. "Many Americans would like to go back to the times when 3,000 miles of ocean isolated America from Europe. We tried this isolation policy once and found that it does not work. Russia is emotionally and materially keyed to face the future world." After his talk, Mr. Janeway was detained for an hour answering questions and carrying on a discussion with his audience. Lawrence Admiral Receives Leason of Merit Award British and Greek Royalists Hurl Back Leftist Assaults Athens—(INS)—British and Greek royalist troops hurled back two storm assaults by left wing Elas forces today but the British reported only "little change in the general situation." British reinforcements, which arrived during the night, went into action immediately. Yanks First Army Nears Karlsruhe The American Seventh army smashed toward the Rhine along a 45-mile front today for gains of up to eight miles, despite heavy rear guard fighting by at least two German divisions. At one point the Yanks were within a mile of the Rhine and only 15 miles from the great German rail and industrial city of Karlsruhe. International News Service The Third army continued its relentless pounding along the Saar river defenses, and was subjected to a series of determined Nazi counter-attacks. One Mile From Duren The American First blasted its way eastward from Aachen and consolidated positions slightly more than a mile from the key German supply town of Duren. On this front also, the Germans put up stubborn rear guard action. Canadian troops with the British Eighth army on the Italian front made two surprise thrusts across the Lamone river and established two bridgeheads. In the Pacific B-29 superfortresses based on Saipan struck at the Jap industrial installation in Nagoya, some 165 miles west of Tokyo. The Jeps admitted the raid shortly after it was announced at American headquarters, and added that 80 superfortresses had atken part in a raid which also struck at Shikoku, Honshu, and Korea. Washington — (INS) — President Roosevelt nominated Norman Armour to be ambassador to Spain. Armour was ambassador to Argentina before being recalled last fall. Eight Jap Convoy Sunk The eighth Jap convoy seeking to bring supplies and reinforcements to Leyte was destroyed with seven enemy ships sunk and three probably sunk. More than 30,000 Japanese are believed to have perished in previous assaults on convoys to Leyte. Fifty enemy planes attempting to protect the convoy were shot down. Plans for a combination dance and sleigh ride party to be held at the country club will be discussed at a meeting at 7 p.m. Tuesday in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building.

Everyone is invited, Charles Kunzelman, president, said. Officers, including Kunzelman, elected last night were Rudy Carl, vice-president, and Margaret Wenski, secretary-treasurer. Armour Ambassador to Spain Coed Play Pleases Playgoers Braving icy sidewalks, an enthusiastic audience filled Fraser theater last night for the first performance of Prof. Allen Crafton's latest play, "Tune in in Yesterday." Spiced with clever dialogue and fast action, the plot centered around Zeta Beta Mu sorority's problems in keeping the chapter house open during the war. All of the action took place in the living room of the sorority house, located on the campus of a mid-western college. Scenes which the audience enjoyed most were the singing of the sacred "Zeta Pearls" by the cast, a take-offf on all cherished sorority songs; the departure of two members for the WACs, and the rush tea which comes right in the middle of a free-for-all battle. Shirley Jac Wagner, as the queen "Swede", who wins a pin-up girl contest, was one of the outstanding actresses in the play, Shirley Nan Hargiss in her drunk scene brought down the house. The efforts of her Zeta sisters to keep her condition (continued to page four) Lt. Michelman Leaves V-12 Unit Lt. Ira Hethcock has arrived from the naval induction training center at Tucson, Ariz., and will take the place of Lt. Robert T. Fitzhugh, US-NR, Lt. Comm. Arthur H. Buhl announced today. Because of illness in the family of Lieutenant Fitzhugh, no date for his leaving has been set. He has been on the campus since July 1, 1943. Lt. C. A. Michelman, USNR, assistant commanding officer of the V-12 naval training unit since July 1, 1943, is returning to civilian life and has been replaced by Lt. Arnold B.

'Last Resort' Will Open Next Month Work on the "Last Resort," campus coke and dance spot sponsored by Union Activities which will open soon, is well underway, according to Edith Marie Darby, chairman of arrangements for the new room. If possible, it will be opened sometime next month, she said. Set up in the University Club room in the basement of the Memorial Union building, the "Last Resort" will furnish juke-box music, a coke machine, and small tables for use of couples on Friday and Saturday night. "We are planning the coke room on the campus," Miss Darby said, "because of crowded conditions in dance spots around Lawrence." Members of Miss Darby's committee are Mary Zeller, Patricia Coolidge, Ann Young, Jean Saffell, Roberta Frowe and Pat; Williams. Appliqued curtains and table cloths are being made now by Miss Darby's committee, with the help of students from the department of home economics. Large wall murals are being painted by art students in the School of Fine Arts. Faculty Approves Three Changes In College Curricula Requirements; ASC Committee Makes Proposals Student Committee Presents Its Report A student curricula committee, appointed by the All-Student Council, commended the three new changes approved by the faculty yesterday and presented it a report approving proposed changes in biology and Western civilization requirements. The faculty curricular committee has recommended that a three-hour course in general biology, and a second course with laboratory, also carrying a minimum of three hours credit, be required. The history requirement, as proposed, is that all students in the College be required to obtain in the freshman and sophomore years a knowledge of modern civilization in the West such as would be of college standard. Psychology Lab Wanted Other proposals of the student committee were that the department of psychology adopt a plan similar to that of the department of biology, that the faculty study the problem of special students and returning service men, and that a student who has taken the necessary prerequisites for a course be allowed to take that course even though he does not have junior-senior standing. The committee believes that students who have proven their ability by maintaining a 2-point grade average should be allowed to take junior and senior courses without the listed prerequisites with the consent of the instructor. Would Abolish Language Must Foreign languages should not be a division requirement, according to the committee's report. A general course on languages and culture should be introduced to replace this former requirement. The course would give students a preliminary view of the value of language and allow him to decide for himself whether or not he will continue the study. The report also recommended that (continued to page four) Students Appointed To Council Positions Leonard Brown, engineering sophomore, and Harry Jennison, College senior, both of the Pachacamac party, were appointed as representatives of districts II and IV, respectively, at the meeting of the All-Student Council last night. They will fill positions left by members who resigned from the council recently. Jean Templeton was appointed as I.S.A. representative. The council approved Charles Moffett, College sophomore, as student representative on the University Athletic board. The Women's Executive council composed of all women members of the A.S.C. met after the regular council meeting. Officers elected were Marg Free, Kappa Kappa Gamma president; Virginia Wickert, Corbin hall, ce-president; and Elior Kline,iller hall, secretary-treasurer. No picture was taken of the A.S.C. as was formerly planned. Will Consider Other Changes Next Week Three proposals, covering requirement changes for freshmen and sophomores in English, speech, and mathematics, recommended by the committee on curricla to the College faculty at a meeting earlier in the month, were approved without amendment by the faculty at a meet-yesterday afternoon. Three other proposals, pertaining to new majors and the fields of biology and Western civilization will be discussed by the faculty at another meeting Tuesday. A two hour course in Fundamentals of Speech will be required for graduation of all students entering the College in the fall of 1945 and thereafter, according to one of the new proposals. Combined composition and literature courses totaling 10 hours credit will be required during the freshman and sophomore years of students entering next fall or after to replace the present courses 1 and 2 English Composition and 10. 11a and 11b English Literature. The new courses 1 and 2 will be given for 3 hours credit each, and 3 and 4 for 2 hours each. Math Ability to Re Checked Speech Course Is Required Math Ability to Be Checked Mathematics courses will be required as necessary according to results shown in entrance exams. Each new student will be required to take an examination covering arithmetic, plane geometry, and high school algebra. Students showing lack of mathematical ability in this test will be required to prove minimum ability by an examination near the end of the first semester in residence, or be required at the next enrollment to take a non-credit course designed to give this ability. Entrance Exam Will Decide Without regard to his high school record, a student showing in his entrance examinations such a deficiency in knowledge of elementary algebra or of plane geometry as to make impossible continued courses in mathematics will be required to take a non-credit course in elementary algebra or plane geometry or both before enrolling in any University course in mathematics. A student whose high school transcript shows the normal prerequisites for the standard college algebra course (Mathematics 2a), but whose entrance exam in algebra indicates lack of training shall be required to take Mathematics 2 or 2b for reduced credit. This practice is permitted, but not required at the present time. The faculty proposal concerning (continued to page two) Jack Musselman Reported Killed in Action in France Pfc.

TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Surveys Reveal Workers' Trust In Government The average American factory worker is pro- union. He believes that the worker's best chance of making a good living and improving his labor conditions lies in joining a union; and he gives much of the credit to unions for the gains in wages, working conditions, and job protection that he has received. These facts were brought out recently in a survey conducted by Opinion Research Corporation of Princeton, N.J., among hourly and piece rate workers. The survey showed that both union and nonunion members have a decided respect for the national leaders of organized labor and believe that the union heads are doing something to benefit labor. benten labor. Yet this same survey showed that the factory worker is looking primarily to the government to solve the post-war problem. The poll indicated that 47 per cent of all workers, union and non-union alike, place their trust in the government. A recent Gallup poll revealed that Americans in all walks of life are overwhelmingly in favor of taking the government out of business after the war by selling the huge war plants to private operators and to keep from dictating what products shall be made in them. So it can be assumed that the American people (including the factory workers) do not desire immediate socialization of industry. Reasons given for thinking the government would come to the aid of the unemployed fell into three patterns. The most frequently repeated by the largest group was, "It is the government's responsibility; it always comes to the rescue." Another group said, "Government will have control; it will have most of the power." The third group said, "The government is anxious to make good; it has helped labor and will do much for labor." do indeed. These attitudes show that the American factory worker in his relations to the government is akin to the adolescent youth who wants his parents to allow his freedom to exercise his own will, yet wants them handy to fall back on in time of trouble and to provide him with the spending money. And like most people in this predicament, he will undoubtedly clash with his parents at times. The future will not be one entirely of amicable relations between the worker, his union, and his government.—K.G.

All letters must be limited to 250 words. My Dear Sergeant. Your somewhat misinformed letter was printed in the "Daily Kansan" Dec. 12. You, sergeant, are laboring under a delusion. And, while I appreciate the legitimacy of such a gripe, if the situation were as the A.P. and "Stars and Stripes" suggested, the University has yet to see a pipe-smoking coed on its campus. The entire thing was merely a gag, accepted as such by us, which was pounced upon by an excitable press. Is it fair, sergeant, to judge a college, let alone an entire state, by the actions of a few? the actions. You mentioned "patriotic Kansas" in a rather sneering manner. Maybe I can straighten you out on this bit of misinformation also. We are proud to say that Chautauqua Rock Rock Chalk Talk A raw deal— All girls interested in trying a new astringent to retain your beautiful school-girl complexion might take some friendly advice from Edna Wallace Pflueger (Bettie t' you). After cleaning a skirt with Imperial cleaning fluid, she placed same on her dresser. Before retiring, and after washing her face thoroughly, Bettie picked up and applied what she presumed to be astringent. But, after a rinse with baby oil, Bettie was much relieved. Report from her roommate, Virginia Guill, states, "The pateint is resting nicely." This beautiful blanket of snow on the campus has resulted in the inventions of different means of sliding down hills without sleds. Jess Roy, Harriet Davis, and other coeds have discovered the use of an ordinary board to be quite effective. However, their problem, Mr. Anthony, is still unsolved as to how you and the board can both reach your destination at the same time. It is slightly annoying to reach the LA VERNE KEEVEN Talk - * * ** ** bottom of the hill with your means of transportation trailing behind you. Still unknown— Marjory Hedrick, struggling to detect the chemicals in her unknown in chemistry lab Saturday, made a startling discovery at the end of the day that it contained copper. But after a careful analysis, and much to her disgust, Professor Taft informed her that evidently she had dissolved her tongs into the mixtures. 心 心 心 Cole vs. Coal— You'll find it annoying when you ask for a history book and receive instead a mineralogy book. Professor Sandelius asked his class to read a book written by Zink and Cole at the library last week. One of his obedient students proceeded to Watson to carry out his assignment. However, he was given a book entitled "Zinc and Coal Deposits in the United States." "Purely a misunderstanding" was the student's only excuse. county, 'Pipe-smoking coeds" and "4-F's" totaling 2,500 students, bought $84,432.70 in war bonds in the recent drive. The W.P.B. has assigned two million pounds of cotton to help ease the shortage in infants' wear. I may add, sergeant, that I "bitched" about the cigarette shortage. But only because I couldn't buy an extra carton, or even a few extra packs, for a boy who has spent the last three months in a navy hospital, and a marine pfc. The marine is now dead, so it doesn't matter much. Could I send you THOSE cigarets, sergeant? This sounds frightfully nasty. I realize that I am in your debt more than it is ever possible for me to repay. But I think that it is rather unfair for you to judge all of us by the much-publicized action of a few. I guess this will sound funny in a foxhole. I'm sorry, sergeant, but you asked for it and you got it. And now I'd like to wish you as merry a Christmas as it is possible for you to have. And God send you home soon. My respect and eternal gratitude, Sunny Jones. LOST: Alpha Delta Pi sorority jeweled pin. Lost sometime during the past week. Reward.

The Crimson and Blue five started slowly and held only a 16-10 lead a intermission, the Hawks managing to hold even throughout most of the entire first half. Then Coach "Phog" Allen's rapidly improving five began to turn on the steam, and in the next few minutes built up a 33-15 lead. Allen then sent in one substitute after another as the Jayhawks rode to an easy victory. Kirk Scott Is Star Charlie Moffett, "Whitey" Carlson, Gordon Reynolds, and Kirk Scott gave the Kansans their powerful offensive punch during the evening, Scott netting twelve points, Moffett and Carlson hitting ten apiece. Scott came into the contest midway in the first half with the Jayhawks holding but an 8-6 lead, and the speedy Newton southpawn potted three left-handers to push the Crimson and Blue into a commanding lead. In the second half of the ball game, Moffett started the Kansas fireworks by hitting a beautiful one-handed shot, and in only five minutes the Jayhawks possessed a the game-winning margin. Allen then cleaned the bench in order to give every squad member making the trip a chance. Hawks Hit Four Field Goals The Hawks hit but four field goals throughout the entire contest, most of their attempts ringing the rim and falling away. They kept within distance of the Jayhawks throughout the first half, though, by countering free throws. The Rockhursters, opening their 1944-45 season, could hit but one field goal throughout the first half, and connected for the second time with four minutes of play left in the game. Quinlan was high for the Hawks with nine points, five of them on free throws. The two teams will meet in a return engagement on the Hoch auditorium boards next Tuesday night.

The storms ranged from Colorado to the eastern seabord and in a middor form into the deep South. Yank First Army Gains Two Miles In Cologne Drive International News Service The American First army swept into German defenses at the Roer river today in a fresh drive which netted gains of almost two miles on the approach to Cologne. Storm Death Toll Reaches 100 To the south the U. S. Ninth army mounted a surprise night attack and captured the town Vichhosen, south of Duren. The Yanks encountered only light opposition. Nazi Mine Felds Slow Yanks The Seventh broke through the German-held Magninot line at several points, however, and occupied at least three towns. Offensive of the Seventh army along a 35-mile front on the Rhine rolled up advances of three miles and further threatened the German industrial and rail city of Karlstube. The Yanks were slowed down by increasing Nazi resistance and thickly-sown mine fields. The American pincer movement around the Hagenau forest closed the escape gap except for a seven mile stretch. Thailand Enemy Positions Blasted In the Pacific American super-fortresses today blasted enemy positions at Thailand with a "substantial force" of B-29's based in India. Reconnaissance of yesterday's attack on Nagoya disclosed at least 40 direct hits on the Mitsubishi factory, on a water filtration plant and housing areas. Two American columns were driving against the surrounded Jap forces on Leyte. The Russians were reported to have encountered waves of serious Nazi resistance as they swept through six miles north of Budapest. Y-Call Ready For Distribution Opinions on student government, presented by students, faculty, and administrative officers, are combined with a Christmas theme in the December issue of the Y-Call, Y.W.C.A. and Y.M.C.A. publication, which is being distributed today, Barbara Thorpe, editor of this month's Y-Call, has announced. Assistant editors, Nancy Goering, Patricia Glover, and Mary Zeller, College freshmen, and Jeanne Shoemaker, College senior and Y-Call chairman, are helping the editor distribute the paper to organized and unorganized houses where there are members of the Y.W.C.A. Cabinet members of the organization will also assist in the distribution. The third issue this year of the four page newspaper also includes announcements of Henley house events. The first issue, which came out soon after the fall session, was centered about the freshmen, and the second was on the national election. Dean Gets Fishy Gift Imagine trying to get into your office with a huge five foot fish blocking the doorway. That's the situation Henry Werner, dean of activities, found Monday evening when he tried to get into his office. Pinned on the fish was a note which read: "Time hangs heavy on one's hands Waitin' for fishing days so dear, So here's a token of consolation Until the coming year." to suffice, The fish now stands behind Dean Werner's office door. When asked what he intended to do with it, he replied, "I'm going to try to get a line on it." 'Tune in Yesterday Ends Successful Run With every seat sold, Fraser theater resounded with the laughter playgoers, as the cast of "Tune in Yesterday" appeared in its second performance last night. To have a successful play, three groups are necessary—director and play, actors, and audience. Last night all of these elements combined to make "Tune in Yesterday" one of those better comedies which have been presented on the University campus. Because the plot, centering about sorority problems in wartime, was close to University-life, the play was received with enthusiasm by both students and faculty. All of the seeming trivialities of Zeta Beta Mu, which were cleverly incorporated in the dialogue, hit close to many in the audience. Since Prof. Allen Crafton's first play of the year was such a success, he is planning a second one to be presented in February. Residence Halls to Be Redecorated Residence Halls to Be Redecorated Watkins hall, Miller hall, and Jolliife hall will be redecorated during the Christmas vacation, Miss Marie Miller, assistant adviser of women, has announced. Reservists May Stay in Service Secretary of the Navy Forrestal has predicted that thousands of naval reserve officers would remain in service after the war. Women Discuss Medical Fields Women are needed in all fields of medicine and their future in the medical profession is good. A discussion yesterday for interested University women at Frank Strong auditorium emphasized the vocational opportunities for women in medicine. Dean H. R. Wahl, dean of the University of Kansas School of Medicine, spoke of the great stades medicine has made in the last 50 years. Doctors need assistants who are well trained and interested in their work, Dean Wahl said. NUMBER 59 Short cuts taken today in training technicians will not be sufficient in the after-war period, he stated. Technicians are especially needed in hospitals, but there also is a call for them for laboratory work, public health work, clinic work, and research. Dean Wahl remarked that qualities for a good technician include sympathy, interest, and intelligence. A technician has social recognition; approaching socialized medicine will demand more and better trained technicians, he said. War has increased the interest and need for physical therapists, said Dr Gordon Martin. Today, there are about 3,000 technicians in the country and in the next two or three years there is an expected demand for 6,000. They are needed in military, general, children's, and veteran's hospitals, and do important work in clinics, and in doctors' offices. Speaking on nursing, Miss Avia Van Lew explained the Cadet Nurse Corps. "Many people think that being a Cadet Nurse is like signing up to be a WAC or a WAVE." In reality a girl must be a student in nursing and take her cadet training in the same school she is enrolled in. At present there are 100,000 Cadet Nurses in the United States. Miss Sarah Roberts pointed out that the field of occupational therapy has a broad scope. It is used in treatment of tuberculosis and heart disease, by general hospitals, mental and penal institutions. Imagination, enthusiasm and stamina are requisites of a good technician. Uniforms are worn by occupational therapists in the navy, but are not used in the army. KFKU Will Celebrate Twenty Years on the Air Twenty years ago tomorrow, on Dec. 15, 1924, the university of Kansas dedicated its radio station, KFKU, in an alumni rally held in Robinson gymnasium. The program began at 7:55 p.m. and included music by the band, the glee clubs, and soloists, and group singing by a large audience of students, faculty, and staff members. Greetings were given by various members of the faculty and the messages received from enthusiastic friends and alumni in 19 states were read as a part of the program. Chancellor Will Speak will be master of ceremonies in a dramatization presenting brief interludes from the KFKU program of 1944. At 9:30 p.m. tomorrow KFKU will observe its 20th anniversary with a birthday party broadcast, Miss Mildred Seaman, program director, has announced. A quartet, under the direction of Ruth Russell, senior in Fine Arts, will sing KJJ, songs. Prof. Allen Cauleton, chairman of the department of speech and drama, Chancellor Deane W. Malott will give a talk entitled, "This is KFKU, the University of Kansas." A dialogue discussion on "Education by Radio in Post-war Kansas" will be presented by John W. Ashton, chairman of the department of English, and Miss Maud Ellsworth, professor of art education. Professor Ashton will take the part of adult education, and Miss Ellsworth, member of the board of directors of the Kansas State Teachers Association, will represent education in schools.

And as far as we know, only one professor has ever been thoughtful enough to perform this service on his own. Students in Prof. Edwin Stene's Municipal Administration thought the end had certainly come Tuesday evening when they answered the doorbell and were confronted by a small boy with an official looking special delivery from the department of political science. Cribbing systems and unreturned reserve books flashed painfully through the guilty consciences. But the panic was unwarranted. Inside the business envelope was just a friendly letter from Professor Stene, outlining the next day's examination. "I have reason to believe that you have been doing some reading . . . about different forms of city government," the letter began offer a cordial salutation. Several points on that subject had been bothering him, the professor explained, and he wanted to have them explained. "I know you are busy these days," he apologized, "but I am really anxious to have a reply from you by 10:30 am. tomorrow. If you can possibly do so, I want you to think these questions over carefully using any notes that you may have and any books you wish . . ." Students Approve Idea "Reason to Believe" It had just never happened before in the history of the University. That was all! But it was fun, and it was Students Approve Idea (continued to page three) Laborite Causes Upset In House of Commons London—INS—The British house of commons was thrown into a uproar today when a Laborite member interrupted Prime Minister Winston Churchill to demand how long the British government "is going on with this policy of murdering our Greek comrades." Churchchill answered that he had given a long account of British policy before the house of commons last week and declined to add further. Athens—(INS)—A curfew imposed by the British military authorities in Athens today permitted Greek civilians in the streets only between noon and 2 p.m. Fresh attacks were made by the Elas armed forces against a Greek brigade and the British troops. Washington—(INS)—The Senate foreign relations committee today voted to recommend confirmation of five of the six top-ranking state department appointments made by President Roosevelt. Tie Vote Deadlocks Sanction of MacLeish The sixth nominee, Archibald MacLeish, failed of confirmation by a tie vote, but the vote was left open so that three absent members can break the deadlock. Vespers Herald Yuletide Season At Hoch Sunday A capacity audience is expected to attend the Vespers. This service usually draws larger crowd than any other attraction presented in Hoch auditorium during the year. Christmas carols and chimes will ring across the campus Sunday afternoon preceding the opening of the Annual Christmas Vespers at 4 p.m. The music will be projected by electrical amplification from Dyche museum and a brass quartet will play carols from the outside balcony of Hoch auditorium. Approximately 200 students and faculty members will take part in the elaborate program, D.M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, said. Candlelight Service Features Choir At the beginning of the program, John Bayles and Ted Shee maker will light candles. The vested University A Cappella choir will take part in the candlelight processional and recessional, assisted by the University Symphony orchestra under the direction of Russell Le Wiley. Directed by Dean D. M. Swarthout, the choir will sing four choral selections: "In Excelsis Gloria," "Hodie, Christus Natus Est," "Listen to the Lambs," and an eight-part humming presentation of "Ave Maria" preceding the final tableau. Orchestra Will Will Orchestra Will Play The University Symphony orchestra will play "Children's Prayer and-Dream Music" from the opera "Hansel and Gretel" and a "Pastoral" from a Christmas concerto for strings and piano by Corelli. Two featured instrumental numbers will be included on the program. The first, a brass instrument arrangement of the popular "Have Angelique" by Rubenstein, was prepared by Prof. E. Thayer Gaston. "The Swan" will be played by 14 violins accompanied by two harps, under the direction of Prof. Waldemar Geltch. Four Tableaux at Vespers Four Christmas tableaux with elaborate scenery, costumes and lighting effects will be presented by the departments of design, and of drawing and painting. They are entitled "Bringing in the Yule Log", "A White Christmas", "The Shepherds" and "Adoration". A quartet of solo voices from the first balcony will sing Christmas hymns and carols during the tableaux. The service will last approximately an hour and a half. Mattern's 'Kaw River' Exhibited in New York Karl Mattern, professor of drawing and painting in the School of Fine Arts, has been honored by having one of his water-colors, "Kaw River" selected for this year's annual exhibition of contemporary American sculpture, water-colors and drawings at the Whitney Museum in New York city. This water-color was shown last year in the exhibition of Professor Mattern's work at Thayer museum. One of Professor Mattern's paintings is now on exhibition at the Nelson Gallery in Kansas City in the fourth annual exhibition of Missouri painters, recently shown at the City Art Museum in St. Louis. TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY. DECEMBER 14, 1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Letter to the Editor Editor's Note: David Battenfeld was a student at the University from the summer session of 1943 until last month. During the last session he was co-chairman of the Democratic party, and he has served in the armed services since November. As a student for nearly two years at K.U. and one who was always interested in student government, I cannot help but be affected by the recent ruling of the Chancellor in regard to the A.S.C. and the Sour Owl. From what facts I can gather, I cannot help but feel that the Chancellor was fully justified in taking the action that he did. Student government is fully dependent upon the students. If they want it badly enough, they will get it. But here the woolful ineffectiveness and insignificance of the A.S.C certainly cannot be expected to stir any students uninterested in student government anyway, and may dishearten those who work for it. When all the A.S.C. can find to do is to quarrel with the K Club over freshman caps, or put out a lewd magazine, it is time to investigate why such a case has come about. To The Editor: The superficial trouble seems to me to be the caliber of persons on the A.S.C. Last year's Council was an outstanding group, and did much toward more student responsibility. But the very Council members who are supposed to be the school leaders have put out this inane magazine and wrought disgrace upon themselves, the A.S.C., and the entire University. But this fault goes to the very heart of student politics itself. Student elections are tremendous fakes. The principal aim of all parties is not to further the cause of student government by putting up progressive, intelligent leaders as candidates, but merely to win by putting up popular athletic heroes, or by vicious attacks on the fraternities, thus widening a breach between "barbs" and frat men, that must be closed completely for any harmonious and united action by the students ever to take place. Students of Kansas University! We are fighting a war to preserve democracy. But what kind of democracy are you going to have in the United States, if you refuse to take the advantages offered you now?

That's Bob Jones, Sig Alp pledge, who showed up at a basketball game the other night in a pair of pink, blue, and yellow striped shorts (they tell us!). There ought to be a law—or somepin'. Nancy Love, Pi Phi pledge, dressed hurriedly for school one morning this week, and in groping around in the dark in her room (yep, there was an active asleep there!) picked up what she believed to be her perfume stick. It comes in a tube remarkably similar to a lipstick. Nancy gave herself quick swipes across the face and neck and behind the ears. Then tore out into the lighted hallway, got one look at herself in the mirror, and almost fainted from Tabu on you---shock. Any similarity between lipstick and what was all over her face and neck was far from coincidental.

Fergus and Brown Are Bridge Winners After Second Round Winners of the first and second rounds of the annual bridge tournament, sponsored by Student Union Activities, were announced last night by Barbara Prier, chairman of the tournament. Jean Fergus and Nancy Brown were high score winners after the second round which was played Tuesday night in the lounge of the Memorial Union building. A duplicate bridge plan is being used in the tournament this year. Each player's hand is working out in advance, according to the plan, and each couple plays at every board. Other high score winners in the tournament so far are Nancy McCleary and Armilda Lincoln, second; Ann Starr and Jeanne Harris, third; Virginia Rader and Keith Bunnel, fourth; and Leta Mae and Sarah Marks, fifth. An average of scores obtained in the second round and in the first round, which was played two weeks ago determined the winners. Nine tables will participate in the playoff round, Miss Prier said. Tentative date for the finals has been set for Jan. 9. Those who will make up the tables in the play-off round, besides the 10 high winners are Jane Eby and Ann Cowan, Margaret Fessler and Barbara Barnium, Eileen Frieson and Barbara Sherrard, and Lila Jean Doughman and Patricia Arnuel.

Students knew they hadn't received a real handout, but the idea that their teacher had a sense of humor and was willing to give them what help he could, gave a lift to the usual drag of preparing for an examination.

Sigma Nu had Bob Stewart to thank for 13 of their 15 points. The rough game of the evening was between the Betas and the Phi Gams. Both teams were tossing in scores from the floor, but 10 free throws for the victors sewed up the fracas. Tom Sinclair, netting 10 points for the evening, led the Phi Fais to their 25 to 14 victory over Sigma Chi who couldn't seem to find the basket The high score of 60 to 7 over the Draft Dodgers was piled up by the Phil Delts who were hot on the basket. Paced by John McGuckin's top of 14, the whole team poured in point after point.

KFKU is under the direction of Harold G. Ingham, director of the extension division. R. P. Stringham, of the department of electrical engineering, is the chief engineer in charge of the station. Student operators for KFKU this year are John Pfouts, engineering senior, and Harold Timmerman, engineering sophomore. Lee Baker, V-12 student in electrical engineering, is the student announcer. Dolores Sulzman, College junior, takes care of all public work. KFKU shares time with WREN, Lawrence commercial station, on the frequency of 1250 kilocycles with 5,000 watts power. Regular School Began in 1925 KFKU began broadcasting on a regular schedule on Jan. 5, 1925, with lectures from almost every department in the University along with courses in elementary Spanish and general psychology which were given with credit with correspondence study assignments. Station KFKU has pioneered in many fields of broadcasting. In 1925, a leased wire from Topeka to the studio control room enabled the station to bring the proceedings of the state legislature to the listening audience. In the following year, 1826, a broadcast by Prof. H. P. Cady on the sound of an atom focused the attention of the nation to the University. The two shows, "Your Kansas Government" and "Kansas Unlimited," being carried by the Kansas State Network, are KFKU's most recent venture.

Ashton to Speak in Topeka Sportorials By EARL BARNEY, KANSAN SPORTS EDITOR It's About Time— After long years of pushing, complaining, and threatening, the Big Six has at last come out of its athletic hibernation and has legalized the recruiting of athletes in the immediate area of the colleges themselves. Just as one commentator has put it, the league was rapidly becoming the "little half-dozen" instead of even holding its own. holding its own. What the league fathers have actually done is given the respective coaches the go-sign to get out and keep "foreign conferences" from raiding their four-state hunting grounds. In the past few years, scouts, and even the coaches themselves from respectable conferences to our south (and east), were about as thick in these parts as flies around an open jug of molasses. Now perhaps K.U. and K-State will be able to play winning football, in view of the possibilities uncovered in state high school play this year. Countless Prospects Upon casting an inquiring eye in and around Kansas high schools, your correspondent has noticed these players who have gained state-wide recognition during the season just completed. Bob Knight, massive 225-pound fullback of the powerful Salina Maroons this fall, would be an asset to any collegiate eleven . . . and what about speedy Lu Grimes, rated Manhattan high's logical successor to Ronnie Webster, and Bill Tierney, smart little quarterback of Rosedale's undefeated grid eleven. George Gerner, his running mate at Guard, also deserves special recognition. Continuing on down the list . . . Joe Bednar, of Ward; Duane Hosman, of Wyandotte; quarterback G, of Hutchinson; Bill Buford, Wichita East, end; Hervey Wright, fullback, and Waymond Alumbaugh, center, of Topeka high school. Going out into the western part of the state we would find such fine prospects as Jack Hague of Oberlin, rated the best back since Elmer Hackney; Dick Tomlinson, Dodge City, back; and Chet Hayden and Bob Williams of Stafford's championship SWKL eleven. Look to the Future These, of course, are only a few. But they should be enough to prove to anyone that there are plenty of football players in our own state who will be able to hold their own in even the stiffest college competition.

Britisher Will Explain Government's Action Washington—INS)—Richard Law, minister of state in the British foreign office is on his way to Washington today to explain to American officials the British position in the troublesome areas of Italy and Greece. Secretary of State Edward R. Stettinius last week rebuked the British government for vetoning the appointment of Count Carlo Sforza as foreign minister in the Italian cabinet and for military interference in Greece. Supreme Court Work Explained by Judge In KFKU Broadcast The general nature of the work of the Kansas state supreme court is the review of cases appealed from district courts of the state, Justice Homer Hoch said Tuesday night for a broadcast over station KFKU. broadcast over a network. In answer to questions asked by Prof. W. E. Sandelius of the political science department, Justice Hoch discussed the organization and functions of the state supreme court. "The supreme court is not a trier of facts; it determines whether a trial court has made some mistake of law to the prejudice of the defeated party," he said. The decisions of the court are final unless a federal question is involved. The supreme court holds a formal session once a month for five days, and mya sit in two divisions. All seven justices need not act in every case, but every decision is the opinion of the majority of the members of the court, Justice Hoch said. Nerve Systems for Battle Wagons 1. Sound powered telephone system—with 2200 instruments connecting all battle stations. These battle phones operate on current generated by the speaker's voice, so damage to the ship's electrical power supply cannot interrupt communications. When U. S. warships go into action, telephone equipment transmits orders instantly, clearly. For the huge battleship "Wisconsin," Western Electric supplied two systems using equipment designed by Bell Telephone Laboratories. Helping to supply "battle talk" equipment for use at sea, on land and in the air is providing important work for many college graduates—both men and women-at Western Electric. 2.

MAX LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1944 NUMBER 60 42ND YEAR Vespers Sunday To Offer Music And Tableaux Perpetuating one of the University's most beautiful traditions, the School of Fine Arts will present the 21st annual Christmas Vespers at 4 p.m. Sunday in Hoch auditorium. The all-musical vespers were first presented in 1923 in Fraser theater. Addition of the tableaux several years later increased the attendance and it was necessary to move the performance to Hoch auditorium. The program was enlarged and due to over-capacity crowds, the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce urged that two performances be given. This practice was continued until 1942 when gasoline rationing cut down the size of the audiences. Choir to Sing Four Numbers Sunday's Christmas Vesper program will include three ensemble numbers, two organ numbers by Laurel Everette Anderson, and two numbers by the University Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Russell L. Wiley. The University A Cappella Choir, under the direction of D. M. Swarthout, will sing four numbers. Ruth Russell, senior in Fine Arts, will sing "Listen to the Lamb" as a soprano solo accompanied by the choir. "Ave Maria" will be sung by the choir and a soprano obbligato. The audience will sing two traditional Christmas carols, "Silent Night" and "The First Noel." "White Light" is in Folklore. "White Christmas" Is Tableau Four tableaux will be presented, the first is entitled "Bringing in the Yule Log," and the cast includes Robert Lasnier, Marion Greenlee, Lois Corbin, Lorraine Teeter, Joan Justice, and Larry Sneegar, "A White Christmas" depicts Wayne Funk and Joe Derrerman as two soldiers at a snowy outpost on a winter front. "The Shepherds" portrays the shepherds receiving the message of the coming of Christ and the cast includes Penelope Boxmeyer, Austin Harmon, Victor Hogg, Roy Rogers and Billy Schafer. The last tableau is entitled "Adoration," Jean Saffel, Burnett Replogle, Bill Swisher, and Frederick A. List are included in the cast. Jay James to Take Collection The presentation of the Christmas Tableau is under the direction of the department of design and the department of painting in the School of Fine Arts. The Tableau will be repeated following the performance for the benefit of those taking part in the program. Although there is yet no complete report on the number of 1945 K.U. calendars sold on the campus, Beverly Bohan, editor, has announced that more than one thousand have been purchased this week. During the service, a free will offering will be taken by members of the Jay James to provide funds for a Fine Arts Scholarship fund. Sales of Calendar Top Thousand Mark Miss Bohan said that beginning Monday, calendars will be taken to organized houses for those who still wish to purchase them. No more will be sold at booths on the campus. The sale of calendars is sponsored by the All-Student Council. Film Actress Takes Life In Despondency Yesterday Beverley Hills, Calif—Lupe Velez, 34, Mexican film actress, took her life in despondency yesterday, two notes found beside her body on a bed in her apartment revealed. An expectant mother, Miss Velez, told friends that her engagement to Harald Ramond, French actor, had been broken. She took an overdose of sleeping powder. Ballroom Place For Dance Dec.30 The ballroom of the Memorial Union building will be opened Saturday night, Dec. 30, for a New Year's dance, sponsored by Student Union Activities, Eugenia Hepworth, president, has announced. Arrangements have not been completed, and the name of the band will be announced later. The social committee of Student Union Activities, headed by Jane Atwood, has charge of the party. Special permission has been granted by the Navy for use of the ballroom for the dance. This is the first party to be held in the Union ballroom since the V-12 program was set up. Small tables will be placed around the dance floor for use of couples during the evening, Miss Atwood said. Sandwiches and cokes, as well as horns and confetti, will be on sale. Tickets for the dance will go on sale the first of next week in the Memorial Union building and in the center lobby of Frank Strong hall. Chubb Will Speak At Conference on Peace Prof. H. B. Chubb, political science department, will speak on "International Law and Permanent Peace" at the conference on world peace to be held at Kansas Wesleyan university, Salina, today. Others who will be featured at the conference are Dr. Henry Atkinson, general secretary of the church peace union; and Dr. Clark Eichelberger, director of the commission to study organization of peace, and chairman of the policy commission, American United for World Organization. The conference which is being sponsored by the Salina committee on world order, will feature Donald C. Blaisdell, assistant chief of the division of international security and organization, U.S. state department; the Reverend Leslie Templin, district supervisor of village schools at Gujarat province, India; Capt. Jose Guzman Baldivieso, medical officer of the Bolivian army, professor of Spanish at Kansas Wesleyan university, and former Bolivian consul to the state of Indiana; William R.

Eberhart Awarded Purple Heart The Purple Heart Medal has been sent recently to Mr. and Mrs. George Eberhart, parents of S/Sgt. Raymond Eberhart who was killed in action Oct. 3 in fighting north of Rome. Sergeant Eberhart was enrolled at the university when he enlisted in the army in Nov., 1942. Trial Cake Is 9-Pounder It started out to be an experiment, but before he knew it, Kenneth Hoffman, an assistant instructor in the department of chemistry had a 9-pound fruit cake! The idea of baking a fruit cake for his brothers in the service had been preying on Hoffman's mind for some time, but it wasn't until recently that he was able to get the fruit that was needed. In buying the ingredients, Hoffman admits he became somewhat over-enthusiastic so the cake at least has quantity. Using a recipe to find out about how much flour and liquids were required, Hoffman mixed his cake in a dishpan. He baked ti in a big bread pan and had to sit and watch it for 3½ hours. The finished product was ample in size and flavor, or so Kenneth insists. However, he only had one small piece. The rest of it has gone to his brothers. Stapleton and Seniors In Physical Education Take Field Day Trip Seniors of the department of physical education and Miss Joie Stapleton, professor in the department, went to Kansas City yesterday or their annual field day trip. The trip was arranged by Dr. Patrick O'Keefe, director of health and physical education of the public schools of Kansas City, Mo. During the day the group visited the health education programs of the elementary schools and the special health rooms of the schools. They also visited the R. J. DeLaneo School for crippled children and the Kansas City Tuberculosis hospital at Leeds, Mo., near the southeast edge of Kansas City. Dr. Noone, physician at the tuberculosis hospital, explained how patients are admitted to the hospital and told the group of the treatment of the patients, and of the great amount of social work which is being done in connection with the tuberculin patients and their families. He took them into the X-ray room and traced the development of tuberculosis chest plates of specific cases. The four majors in the department of physical education who went on the trip are Maurine Zimmerman, Jean Boardman, Margaref Barker, and Lavone Jacobson. Washington — (INS) — President Roosevelt today signed into law the bill creating for the first time in the nation's military history grades of fleet admiral for the navy and general of the army—five star ranks. Seven Are Nominated For Five-Star Rank New York—(INS)—The Tokyo radio broadcast a report today that U S. fortresses again dropped incoordinary bombs on the Tokyo vicinity. The F.C.C. picked up the broadcast Hs promptly nominated Generals George C. Marshall, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Douglas MacArthur and H. H. Arnold to the army posts, and Admirals William D. Leahy, Ernest J. King and Chester W. Nimitz to the navy posts. Tokyo Gets Incindiary Bombs New Offensive Begun In Germany As Seventh Army Crosses Border Facing Heavy Nazi Reinforcements (International News Service) The U.S. Seventh army smashed across the German border today to begin a new invasion of the Reich, in spite of heavy German reinforcements brought up to halt the advance. The First army closed in on positions along the Roer river, the last major, natural barrier before Cologne. The Germans found bitter counter-attacks in the vicinity of Colmar where the U.S. Seventh and the French First army are Churchill Urges Big Three Meet London— (INS) - Prime Minister Winston Churchill, during debate in the house of commons, urged a meeting of the chief executives of Britain, the United States and Russia at the earliest possible moment. Churchill had scarcely finished his speech when conservatives began their attack. They suggested that he re-examine the Atlantic charter in its application to Poland, some of whose territory Churchill would give to Russia as a buffer against future wars with Germany. (The line roughly would follow the Bug river.) Churchill warned the Polish government in exile to hasten its attempts to come to some agreement with Russia before warfare similar to that in Italy and Greece breaks out. Churchill bore the criticism in stoney silence. British-Greek Battle Continues Unabated Athens — (INS) — Gunfire was heard throughout the night in Athens with the British and Greek government forces apparently carrying out offensive action against armed resistance by the Left-wing Greek troops. The British were understood to be bringing up additional reinforcements. Attempts were being made to get the various factions together for agreements on a coalition government, but so ar it has not been accomplished. YWCA May Start Sunday Co-op Meals "Do you have to stand in long lines waiting to get a dinner on Sunday?" "Or do you wrestle with a can opener every Sunday noon?" are the questions asked in a letter sent to 50 unorganized houses by the YW CA. The purpose of the letter is to find how many unorganized students would be interested in starting a Sunday co-op at Henley house, Frances James, YWCA cabinet member, said today. Mise Janes added that all persons interested in cooperating on Sunday noon meals are asked to come to Henley house at 4:30 Monday to make the plans. Because unorganized students find it so difficult to obtain Sunday noon meals, the YWCA is offering the idea as a suggested solution to their problem, Miss Janes said. driving to surround the Vesges region. Third Army Advances However, the U.S. First was reported to have seized control of the west bank of the Roer river north of Duren. ...The Third army, holding multiple bridgeheads across the Saar river, made hard won dawances. They engaged the Germans in a furious battle within the Siegfried line and in another at the first bridgehead established across the Saar river. Nietsy one, Jon Elans, turned. Soviet Troops Encircle Budapest The sale of tuberculosis seals ends on the campus tenight, according to Eugenia Hepworth, chairman. Sales have totaled about $150 to $200; however, at least $400 is expected following the final collection tonight. Miss Hepworth said. Luzon, main island of the Philippines, today was littered with the wreckage of 91 more Jap planes which were shot down in a blast by American carrier-based planes. The Yank air attacks also blasted Jap positions throughout the island, setting fire to harbor installations and destroying large quantities of supplies. The Jaws have lost an estimated 82,000 men in the 55-day-old battle of Leyte. Of this number, some 30,-000 were destroyed as Yank air forces broke up convoys attempting to land reinforcements on Leyte. American losses include 10,000 casualties of which 2,176 were killed in action. Soviet troops were reported to have encircled three-fourths of Budapest in the battle for the Hungarian capital. If enough money is not received in the collection from organized houses tonight, sales may be continued next week. Students living in unorganized houses, who have not been contacted, may purchase seals at Robinson gym. Miss Hepworth said purchases may be made from her by telephone. Tuberculosis Seal Drive Ends Tonight "Sales on the campus have gone very well, and are exceeding those in the past two years," she said. Dramatic Tryouts to Be Given At 3:30 p.m. Monday in Green Dramatic tryouts will be given for any students who have not tried out for dramatics this year at 3:30 p.m. Monday in the Little theater in Green hall, Allan Crafton, professor of speech, announced today. These tryouts will determine the eligibility of any student for membership in Dramatics Workshop and for participation in the next student production. TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Could Ski Trip Be Postponed For Duration? The campus winter sports club has already outlined quite an ambitious schedule for its members. The ski trip to Colorado is by far the most exciting venture yet suggested, but is it such a good idea, after all? From the standpoint of time alone, a vacation of six days is scarcely long enough to give students ample time at home for Christmas, to say nothing of an extra trip of 600 miles or so. Chances are good for a white Christmas in Kansas this year, so why not content yourselves with skiing on the slopes of Mt. Oread some weekend, and postpone the Colorado trip? Transportation is certainly not easy at this time of year. Trains will be crowded, and sufficient gasoline for automobiles would be almost impossible to get. How could the skiers answer the eternal question, "Is this trip really necessary?" Even if they had train reservations, would they allow their pleasure trip to interfere with, perhaps, a serviceman's furlough? Christmas is a special time of year, when everyone wants to be home with those he loves most. Why not stay at home this Christmas, and save the Colorado plans for some post-war year when vacations will probably be longer than six days, when transportation will be easier, and when students can take time to enjoy themselves sincerely, without depriving anyone else of possible pleasure? The idea is a good one, and it has attracted comments from a large percentage of the student body, but wouldn't it be better to wait until the winter after the war? The skiing and skating on the campus planned by the club sound like fun for everyone, but the ski trip is just a little too ambitious. OFFICIAL BULLETIN UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Friday, Dec. 15, 1944 Notices due at News Room, Journalism Building, at 10 a.m. on day of publication. A supper will be served at 6 p.m. Sunday at Westminster hall, after the Christmas Vespers in Hoch Auditorium. Students wishing to attend may call 804 for reservations. Rock Chalk Talk Rock By PAT PENNEY The Phi Psi-Theta feud continued: Theta lips weren't smiling, and neither were the Pi Phis for that matter, when the illumined Theta kite was found hanging over the Pi Phi front door one morning early this week. The Phi Psi had gotten possession of the huge kite the last time they served dinner at the Theta house, and in the dead of night, they hung it over the Pi Phi portal, attaching it to the porch light, so it was shining brightly when the girls left for school the next a.m. To retaliate, the Pi Phis descended upon the Psi ensis at dinner the next day and a battle royal ensued. The furniture flew, and so did Marilyn Erway when Bill "Gargantus" Ritt drew her out the window of the Psi sun porch. Pi Phis managed to escape however, with only a minimum of bruises and numerous trophies, lamps, ash trays, and most of the Psi silverware. A vengeful visit is expected at the Pi Phi lodge any time. Consequently, the from door is locked during meals—the housemother's idea. \* \* \* Miller ala Mode: Bob "Precious" Miller has been seen in the Union lately, printing on all the menus in bold print: "Precious Miller, V-12. Phone 2041. If Miller can't do it, no one can." Well, he's gotta run his stock up someway. Meet me in St. Louis: Patsy Nees, Chi O pledge, received a long distance call at 3 a.m. Friday from an army flier whom she hadn't seen in two years, nor heard from in six months. The flier called from New York, where he had just arrived from Switzerland, having been a German prisoner of war. Pat is on her way to meet him in St. Louis, a broad smile on her countenance. ** Gypsy Rose Lushring: The boys in PT's 9 and 10 are withdrawing their nomination of Lush Lushring for 100 per cent Goodness Man. Maybe Lil' Abner can survive the perils of the big city, but not Lush. Lush saw his first follies in K.C. last weekend, and now, they say, he's a changed man. "Plans are being made by the ISA Chaperones for the dance will be Mr. and Mrs. Harry H. Sisler and Mr. and Mrs. Calvin VanderWerf. Refreshments are to be served during the evening. - * * An apple for the teacher: Restriction has rather shackled Dan Chase, but he has his "moll" working for him. The other day, Dan had Jane Woostemeyer give Captain Michelman a ride home, in the hopes that he could get off restriction for the Beta turkey pull. Did it work, Dan? Dorothy Helene, vocalist, will be featured, as will Gene Johnson, on the piano, and Bill Brazier, trombone player, said Dick Hartzell, member of the I.S.A. council. Doesn't affect me, affect me, affect me; Eric Eulich, Fiji, seems to be going around in somewhat of a stupor. At dinner one night, he poured vinegar instead of syrup on his bread. Is it the long distance romance or the KU Alpha Chi that has him in this state of mind, we wonder? I.S.A. Will Swing Out At Formal Saturday The Wyandotte Swing Masters will provide the music for the Independent Student association's Christmas formal, from 9 to 12 p.m., Saturday, in the Union lounge. Appearing on the campus for the second year, the Kansas City high school dance band will be directed by Wallace Snoderly, trumpeter. Stockings Production Down Britains's stocking production is now only about one fifth of what it was in 1939, according to a leading British hosiery manufacturer. Where en pairs of stockings a year for every they once produced nearly two dozoman in Britain, they are fortunate if they can keep up to an average of five pairs per woman. council to make this party an annual affair if this first party draws a large enough crowd." Don Alderson, president of the organization, has stated. Admission Saturday evening will be by membership card, but non-members will be admitted at the usual rates. With approximately 400 students belonging this semester, the I.S.A. now has its largest membership since the beginning of the war.

Baska went to the floor with Herb Heim scrambling for a loose ball in a practice scrimmage. He snapped his left c'vilicle as he strained to keep the ball from his opponent. He was taken to Watkins memorial hospital where he is resting easily this morning, according to Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson. Heim was not injured. Allen said this morning that the injury "puts him out for six weeks at least." According to the coach, Baska may not be able to play again this season. "It's just one of those tough breaks," Allen stated. In his chalk talk Dr. Allen poured on the criticism, pointing out individual faults of play as revealed in Tuesday's game with Rockhurst. In diagramming two plays that the boys worked on in scrimage later, he put the accent on aggressiveness. stated. The Kansas squad worked hard and deliberately last night, running new plays and concentrating on passing in scrimmage. 'Pass . . . pass . . . pass . . . PASS!' the voice of Phog Allen filled the gymnasium, trying to get the boys to ease up on dribbling and to circulate the ball. A point of individual fundamentals stressed by the coach in his talk was free trowing. He offered weekly prizes for the best scores at the same time saying, "I don't know why it should be necessary to give prizes, as lousy as we are." Commenting on the Rockhurst game Dr. Allen said, "It don't know whether they were weak or we were good." He did say that the Jayhawkers are beginning to show better defensive play, but that the offense is poor. tense is poor. The boys were promised last night that the squad will not be reduced in size. "Some, however, Allen added, "will spend more time on the bench because I have to make a team."

The blackout will be of indefinite duration. (International News Service) Front dispatches said the Nazis beat back the Yanks in several places in spite of heavy American reinforcements. Great forces of German infantry tanks, artillery nad planes were thrown into the attack. Allied aircraft roared into the battle destroying some 154 Nazi planes, and ripping Nazi communications, railroads, and highways out of Collogne. The Germans continued a terrific counter offensive on the American positions along a 60-mile front in Western Europe today. The seventh army drove the Nazis out of Schweighissen and advanced beyond that point. It was met by a roaring barrage of artillery fire from the Siegfried line. However, Allied headquarters declared there was no cause for undue alarm and that measures had been taken to deal with the situation. On Leyte, the infantry advanced seven miles in a drive against Jap positions at Valencia, now only two miles away. A cavalry and in infantry division also moved against Valencia from the north. Yanks on the island of Mindoro, some 155 miles south of Manila, gained a secure hold on the southern part of the islands and swept inland for distances up to 11 miles. B-29's made two Sunday smashes against the Japanese, striking Nagoya for the second time, and the city of Hankow in occupied China. On the Hungarian front, the Russian front, the Russians seized the Budapest suburb of Fort, six miles from Budapest. They captured 40 towns and villages in a drive of northeast Hungary.

Center of Campus Winter Sports A snowy scene with a frozen lake, surrounded by trees and houses. Two people are skating on the ice, while others sit or stand on the snow-covered ground. The sky is overcast, adding to the wintry atmosphere. Potter lake, one of the campus beauty spots and a source of health and pleasure in both summer and winter, was constructed as a reservoir of needed water supply near the campus in case of fire in 1911. In order that the lake might be ready by June of that year for the regatta, a regular feature of the commencement program previously held on the Kaw river, temporary water lines were connected with the city supply and the lake was rapidly filled. The Board of Regents officially named the body of water Potter lake, in honor of Senator T. M. Potter, a former member of the Board. Y.W.C.A.

Malotts has revealed. These gifts are for research and scholarships and are in recognition of the educational advantages of the University. The enrollments of civilian students has remained far higher than was thought likely, according to the report. The installation of some new courses of study and the expansion of old ones applicable to war-time needs are said to be responsible. Such fields are occupational therapy, engineering drawing for women, camouflage, meterology, navigation, chemistry, and physics have fitted into the educational needs of young people, the report says. Malott Gives Notable Steps "Enrollment in the fall of 1944 stood at 2,199 civilian students of 1,600 were women," the report said. "This is the largest enrollment of women in the history of the University. In addition there were 559 army and navy trainees." The chancellor stated as notable steps taken by the University in the past two years as follows: Establishment of a bureau of testing and guidance to serve returned (continued from page two) Faculty to Vote Tomorrow On Curriculum Changes Three proposals for changes in curriculum will be discussed and voted upon by the College faculty at a meeting in Frank Strong auditorium at 4:30 tomorrow afternoon.

Bert Brandt,'39, Photographer To Lecture Jan.8 Bert Brandt, acclaimed by mony as the greatest photographer of World War II, will speak at the University convocation January 8. Mr. Brandt, a graduate of the School of Fine Arts in 1939, was the first photographer to land on the Normandy beachhead. For 36 hours following the invasion he was the only source of information for the press. He got his pictures to London and America by "hitch-hiking" across the Channel, which made his pictures the first ones available. He also brought back the first eye-witness account of what had actually happened on the beaches of France. Was Publications Photographer A former Wichita alumnus, he worked his way through the University with his camera, taking pictures for the Jayhawker and Sour Owl. While he was a student here, a fire at the boarding house in which he stayed, destroyed his camera. He was so well-liked by the students that they contributed to buying a new camera for him. His pictures of the landing at Anzio, where he was with the assault troops at H Hour, have been published in papers all over the world. Traveling from the University to the Kansas City bureau of Acme News-pictures, to Chicago, to Washington, to the Volturno Crossing in Italy Cassino, Anzio, Normandy loading, Cherbourg, and aeress France, the ace photographer has obtained pictures of historic events which have gained wide acclaim for him. Ernie Pole Publicizes Him Washington—(INS)—The United States government put itself on record today as consenting to the partitioning of Poland—if a Polish government can be found which will accept the territorial change. Many persons will recall Ernie Pyle's column, in which he described the task of preparing breakfast each morning for Don Whitehead, Hank Gorrell, and Mr. Brendt, on a stove the photographer, had brought from Italy. Partitioning of Poland Is Acceptable to U.S. Mr. Brandt' probably has more stories and pictures on Mr. Pyle than any other war correspondent or photographer. After covering the battle for Aachen and the opening phases of the drive for the Rhine, Mr. Brandt came back home for a short rest and reassignment. While home on leave, he has been making talks, illustrated by some of his well-known war pictures. In a formal statement, Secretary of State Stettinius declared "This government would have no objection to such an agreement which could make an essential contribution to the presecution of the war against the common enemy." Stettinian said the United States would not object to a transfer of population and territory provided the changes are mutually agreed upon "by the United Nations directly concerned." The University of Washington has a ski club called the Husky Winter Sports club. TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS MONDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Housing Study Shows Citizens' Community Plan A group of professional planners has published the results of a comprehensive two-year study of housing conditions, in conjunction with Revere Copper and Brass Incorporated. Besides being a huge advertising project, "You and Your Neighborhood-A Primer" has lessons in better living and low cost housing, one of the most discussed post-war domestic problems. City planning is indeed an interesting project, but this booklet deals primarily with neighborhood planning, leaving the job of actual improvement to authorities and experts in the field. The book is directed to every adult interested in making his neighborhood a better place to live. Details are given about the most common needs of a community and some idea of the cost, committees needed, and the map-making necessary to an effective program. The book is well illustrated, and free from excessive mention of the sponsoring product. Some students may be studying housing conditions in sociology, or from another angle in architecture, but most students have thought that it is a problem for some one else to solve. But your neighborhood belongs in part to you. You know of conditions in your home town, if not in your college neighborhood yet, that might be altered to your neighborhood's advantage. Practice the duties and privileges of a democracy as an interested citizen, and let the city planning commission of your town hear your suggestions. "Primers" will be sent to key members of women's clubs, churches, settlement houses, U. S. O. affiliates, city planning groups, and labor unions. Register your opinion in specific cases, and your neighborhood will benefit. This study has already attracted requests for further information from 500,000 home owners and prospective builders, 80,000 of whom are in the armed services. Show the fighting men that you want what they are fighting for, too, and that you want it enough to do your part in getting it.

Saronged in $2\frac{1}{2}$ yards of drapery material, Shank discovered too late (after she was sewed in) that the garment lacked the popular three-way stretch principle. She could neither sit down nor dance. ☆ ☆ ☆ The Phi Fai's seem to have retained their "originality" title, as witnessed by Saturday night's "Shipwreck... facus. Especially notable were R. J. Atkinson, dressed as a wild man with red mops as hair; and Gene Kittle, complete with tail, as a tiger (aren't they a little out of season?) *** Internal Combustion — It all started, quite innocently, because Calvin Adams, PT9, was early to I. C. Engines class one day last week. Spotting a peaceful looking window sill, he settled down to catch up on the 40 winks or so he had missed the night before. A few minutes later the rest of the class arrived, and, concerned with his health in the drafty window (it says here), deposited an assortment of coats over him. Still later, Professor Mackay arrived, took roll, and started class. The lecture was well under way when Adams rose somewhat-ahorrically, and announced his presence. It seems another loving classmate, concerned about his cold feet, had applied a few match to just the right place. ☆ ☆ ☆ Always Prepared—At least this year the Alpha O's got ready with less effort for the visit of their housemother's grandchildren, ages 2 and 4. Last year their guests caused the girls no end of confusion, when two astonished males delivered a high chair from the Delta Gamma house to find the housemother was downtown looking for a baby bed. This year however, the bed is already on hand, and the high chair has been more calmly borrowed from the same source. No report was available as to where the DG's are keeping their pledges this week. * * Not that the Christmas Vespers weren't appreciated, but why is it, we wonder, that 90 per cent of the conversations on the way out were concerned with the two candles the Little Guy on the Right missed putting out during the recessional? Healey Willan. "A White Christmas" a tableau picturing two soldiers at a snowy outpost on a winter front, was presented next. Wayne Funk, and Joe Derrerman portrayed the soldiers.

The University Symphony Orchestra played "Evening Prayer and Dream Pantomine" from "Hansel and Gretel" by Humderpindrell, followed by a free will offering for the School of Fine Arts Scholarship Fund. Harps, Violins Play in Ensemble Keeler at the harps, Waldeman Geltch directed the number. The choir sang "Ave Maria," (Archer) with a soprano obbligato of Ruth Reisner, Elaine Taley, and Ardella Ringwalt. The audience sang "Silent Night" by Gruber under the direction of Dean Swarthout. The last tableau, "Adoration," portrayed the worship of the Virgin in a cathedral setting. The east included Jean Saffel as the Madonna, Burnett Replogle as a Nurse's Aide, Bill Swisher as a soldier, and Frederick A. List as a sailor. To end the program, the University A Cappella sang "Hark!

Weaver's FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS --- MONDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1944 Evans Adds Highlights To Game The Randolph Field Ramblers may have won the army air forces' football championship with their 13-6 victory over the 2nd air force Super Bombers in New York Saturday, but it was Lt. Ray Evans, of the losers, former K.U. star, who furnished the highlights of the game. The former Kansas City player, starting the second half of the game POLICE RAY EVANS as halfback of the alternate Super Bomber backfield, gave the customers a show that was much more effective than Dobb's performance during the first two periods, and certainly produced more thrills. While at K.U., Evans lead the nation in passes completed, achieving All-American rating in 1942. Fans will never forget the show the splendid back put on against Nebraska that year, completing 18 of 21 passes. Evans also turned a 60 minute performance in every game that year. With Evans handling the ball on almost all plays, the men from Colorado Springs came back after intermission to push the Randolph Fielders all over the field, finally going across for their lone touchdown in the fourth period. year. In addition to his football prowess Evans also played varsity basketball at K.U. in '41, '42, and '43. He was a member of the famous "Iron Five," Kansas' ever-victorious Big Six champions of '42-43. But the best part of it is that Lt. Evans has another year of intercollegiate competition, and he intends to return to K.U. after the war.

Sportorials By EARL BARNEY, KANSAN SPORTS EDITOR The University of Tulsa Golden Hurricanes, lone Missouri Valley bowl representative this coming New Year's day, are having a "wonderful time" these fine winter days. The Hurricane squad travelled all the way to Miami the early part of this month for a game with the University of Miami Hurricanes, and most of them did not come back. Yes, through an ingenious arrangement of schedules, and credits, the Tulsans have enrolled in the southern university until Jan. 1, so that they will not have to make the fifteen hundred mile trek twice. It also aids practices. The Florida climate is slightly warmer than that in Oklahoma these days! Tulsa Pickling Up Incidentally, football at the University of Tulsa seems to be picking up. In a survey of 5-year records of all football teams throughout the nation, the Hurricanes ranked fourth in won-and-lost percentages. The Tulans ranked second among teams which did not discontinue football during that time, topped only by Notre Dame. The Orange Bowl game with Georgia Tech on Jan. 1 will mark the fourth consecutive yea r that Coach Henry Franka has taken a Tulsa team to a bowl game. The Golden Hurricanes played in the Sun Bowl on January 1, 1942, defeating Texas Tech, 6-0; in the Sugar Bowl the following year, losing to Tennessee, 14-7; and last year the Hurricanes were nosed out by Georgia Tech, 18-20 in their second consecutive appearance in the New Orleans classic. Tulsa was also second in the number of points scored against the opposition during that 5-year period, with 1395 points to only 351 for its opponents. Georgia ranked first in the department by scoring 1397 points. Tonight's Schedule Is Fourth Bowl Game Men's intramural basketball games scheduled for tonight: Delta Tau versus Draft Dodgers, A-league, 7:30, Robinson, east; T. K E. versus Phi Delt, A-league, 8:30, Robinson, east; Dick's Demons versus Sigma Chi B-league, 7:30, Robinson, west; Res. Halls versus Phi Phi B-league, 8:30, Robinson, west.

Those serving on the other committee are Barbara Jane Woodard, chairman; Eileen O'Connor, publicity chairman; and Elaine Thurman, secretary. Meetings will be held after the holidays. A trial period before the election of officers is planned. One group of three will preside at one meeting and then alternate with the other. Queen Anne Tankard Introduces Thayer Monthly Art Feature The Queen Anne tankard was made in 1710. It is in the true style of that period, Mrs. Ryder explained. Simple, refined, and chaste, it has characteristic features: the seated figure of Britannica, the erased lion's head, and either the date of the maker engraved on its face. Featuring a Queen Anne tankard for its first attraction, Mrs. Ruth Rider, curator, has installed a new monthly exhibition at Spooner Thayer museum. To enable visitors to become familiar with individual pieces of good art, representative examples of silver, jade, ivory, and south wall of the main gallery at glass pieces, will be shown in the south wall of the main gallery at Thayer. Dr. John Ise will speak before the employees of the Federal Department of Agriculture, tomorrow, in Kansas City, Mo., on the "Problems of Fagua Legency." "The quality of silver with these marks is known as the 'new standard', and is finer than sterling. It is generally spoken of as the 'Britannica Standard'. Mrs. Ryder said." A colorful English brocade of the 18th century highlights the display, which will be shown for the rest of December. Planets Get Together After seeing last night's sky picture provided by Venus and the moon, many students were sure the war was either over, or coming to a favorable end. Some were reassured of Christmas happiness, positive that the sight was a favorable Christmas sign. The bright planet Venus, at this season one of the evening stars, appeared to be directly snuggled in the moon's arms. It was, however, much farther away from the earth than was the moon. Dr. N. Wyman Storer, professor of astronomy, calculated the moon's distance at 232.-891 miles from the earth. Venus at this time of year is more than 93 million miles distant. Last night's display began in the southwestern sky at twilight and ended about 9:15 p.m. About 8:30 Venus appeared directly above the moon's upper tip. Dr. Storer is making technical calculations to find the spot closest to Lawrence, where an observer would have seen the moon cover the planet Venus as it moved in its orbital path. University V-12's Buy $10,000 in War Bonds For December Record Purchase of $3,100 worth of war bonds in addition to a regular monthly amount of $6,898 is the record of the University of Kansas V-12 unit, for December, according to Lieut. Commander A. H. Buhl, who is commanding officer of all naval affairs at the University. "The University of Kansas unit has maintained a 90-10 record qn war bond purchases ever since its establishment in 1942," said Commander Buhl. "This means that 90 per cent or more of the officers and trainees monthly have purchased war bonds with 10 per cent or more of their pay. This record compares favorably with all other V-12 units." Japanese Balloon Found in Montana The Navy conducts two special campaigns yearly for purchases of extra war bonds, over and above the regular monthly purchases which are made by allotment. On July 4 and December 7, Pearl Harbor Day, extra bond purchases are sought. Washington—(INS)—Military experts speculated today as to the probable purpose of a Japanes "free balloon" found in northeastern Montana last week. The balloon definitely identified as of Japanese manufacture for the Nipponese army, was made of processed paper, and was capable of carrying 800 ounces of cargo. Military men said the balloon might have been a barrage balloon from a Jap post or that it may have carried Jap bouteurs or explosives to the U.S. Los Angeles - A mysterious balloon was discovered drifting inland today from the ocean over Santa Monica at an altitude of about 0,000 feet. Two P-38 planes dispatched to follow the path of the bag, which was heading northeast. Return to Two-Semester Plan Voted By Senate; Resolutions Are Passed Providing Admittance of Veterans To Have Semester Preparatory Program Three resolutions providing for World War II veterans returning to the University were passed by members of the University Senate at a meeting yesterday afternoon. The resolutions will aid the Registrar's The substance of the resolutions office in determining qualifications and requirements of returning veterans. 1. That the veteran who cannot qualify by other standards of admission may be admitted if he satisfies our guidance test either on our own examination or an examination of the armed forces institute that he is qualified to do satisfactory college work. He will be considered a regular candidate for degrees. 2. That if the veteran's total score on educational development examinations is somewhat below the standard set for qualified admission, yet his aptitude is better than his general educational status or the development of his basic skill, he shall be admitted to the one-semester intensive college preparatory program consisting of work in mathematics, English, social science, and an orientation course to teach him how to study. Completion of this will qualify him for regular admission. 3. The regents will be authorized to admit to the University special students whose objectives cut across school lines so that they might better be served by not being attached to any one school. (For example, one might unite business and engineering without being considered a major in either.) X-Ray Is Required For Food Handlers All navy personnel, students, University faculty members, and employees who work as food handlers, who have arrived at the University since Oct. 1, are required to have a chest X-ray taken Wednesday or Thursday, Dr. Ralph Cameteson, director of the Watkins Memorial hospital, announced today. The State Board of Health photofluorographic unit will be at Watkins hospital this week. Hours designated for the X-rays are: Men, 1 to 6 p.m. Wednesday. 8 to 10 a.m. Thursday. Women, 10 to 12 a.m. Thursday. E. O. Stene Discusses Student Government Prof. E. O. Stene, of the department of political science, spoke on the merits and defects of our present student government, at the regular meeting of the Y.W.C.A. Friday afternoon. Professor Stene is an adviser to the All Student Council. Following the cabinet meeting, a coffee was held at Henley house for Miss Marjorie Hyer, visiting youth secretary for the American Friends Service committee, service organization of the Quakers. Miss Hyer told a group of Y.W.C.A. members about summer projects for college students sponsored by the committee. To Have Eight-Week Summer Semesters The calendar committee was instructed to plan a fall semester starting late in September with a pattern similar to pre-war schedules. Return to the two-semester system from the present three-term plan, and adoption of an eight-week summer session to start June 27 and last until Aug. 18, were recommended by the University senate in its meeting yesterday. Whether there would be a 16-week term this summer was not decided upon, but it was said that such a plan would rest upon the military requirements. The senate advisory committee recommended that work taken at the University Extension Center in Kansas City, Kan., be counted as 25 per cent of the work toward graduation. Although this is under supervision of the extension division, the nature of the classes is such that it resembles campus work. This would provide 50 per cent off-campus training one half of which would be center training and one-half through correspondence, with the remaining 50 per cent to be taken on the campus. Senate committees were appointed and Prof. R. S. Howie was elected assistant secretary of the senate. Two committees, the one on ROTC, and the other on Rhoades scholarship were dropped because of inactivity of the program. Prof. Ernest E. Bayles served as secretary yesterday in the place of Prof. John E. Hankins, who is out of the city. Herbert Price to Play For New Year's Party Herbert Price and his 12-piece dance band, from Kansas City, will play for the New Year's party sponsored by Student Union Activities, Saturday night, Dec. 30.

TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS 14083927807 TUESDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1944 60729415 60729415 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Press Freedom Involves Duties Of Citizenship Contrary to the belief of many persons, freedom of the press was not put into our constitution as a special grant to newspapers, but was included in that document to guarantee to every American the right to print what he pleases. It is a right and carries with it certain responsibilities. First of all, the author of a printed article must be responsible if he has abused the privilege of freedom of the press in any way. These abuses may be in many forms, such as label, invasion of privacy, contempt of court, or violation of copyright. It is important to notice that, although a person is responsible for what he has printed, no one can stop him from publishing that material. The right to publish our thoughts on any subject, free of all restraint and censorship but responsible after publication, is our constitutional right. Our greatest responsibility concerned with freedom of the press is to maintain this freedom for ourselves and the generations of Americans to follow us. Today, when our government has more power than ever before, we must all be on our guard to see that our right is not taken away. This task is not just for a few, but it is a job every one of us must share equally. If this freedom is taken away from one person, then it can be taken away from all. What can we do to maintain freedom of the press? We can make our opinions known. Public opinion has changed the form of government in many countries; it has caused amendments to be made to our constitution; and it has caused riots and wars in countries throughout the world. It could our struggle to keep the press free. To whom do we make our opinion known if we believe a certain individual is trying to take away our right? We may write letters to the editor of our paper, or we may talk to the editor personally. We could creat news to bring the subject to the attention of the public. This might be done by having meetings or luncheons at which some prominent speaker would comment on the situation. We could buy advertising space in newspapers or magazines and this way expose the group or groups who are trying to deprive us of our right. We might buy time on the radio. A common method would be to have handbills, pamphlets, leaflets, or booklets printed and distributed. These are only a few of the numerous ways in which we can make our opinions known. In scores of countries, people have lost their freedom because they let it slip away from them a little at a time. By making our opinions public, we can hold fast to our freedom of the press. We will then stand little chance of losing our other freedoms, as the press provides us with the strongest weapon to fight against transgression of all rights. V-12's Will Leave University Thursday Christmas vacation for all Navy V-12 trainees will begin after their last class on Thursday, and will last until midnight Dec. 27, according to Lt.-Commander A. H. Buh, commanding officer for the unit here. The sailors will be going to various parts of the country, but it is believed that they will not go as far Rock Chalk Talk David and Goliath: Goliath was a mighty man, A member of Phi Psi: But little David slew him down—He was a Sigma Chi! Jerry Wildgen, Sigma Chi, accompanied the Nu Sigs over to the Phi Psi house last week to rescue some Pi Phis in distress during their visit to the boys on Indiana, and there our boy "Smash" performed the most amazing feat of prowess of the year. Earl "What-a-Man" Crawford tore into the group of Nu Sigs, intending to rid the world of their presence, when lil' Jerry gave a large charge in Crawford's direction, and he landed flat on his back under the piano. Ladies and gents! the chamepen—Featherweight Wildgen, by a knockout! A stitch in time: Earl Stanton, Fiji pledge, making one of the better speeches of the year in his speech class, was elaborating on the subject of needles. "Imagine," Round Man orated dramatically, "what this world would be like without needles. Why, no one would have any clothes. Wouldn't you look like strutting around the campus in a brand new blanket. Humph! There's no sex appeal in a blanket!" The course of true love: Charlie Moffett has one of the more logical excuses for being mad at his girl. It seems Mary Lou Shewey, Kappa, got a big knot in his yo-yo string, and he's unhappy about the whole thing. Braddy Will Attend Language Convention In New York Dec. 27 By PAT PENNEY Prof. Haldeen Braddy, English department, will attend the convention of the Modern Language Association of America in New York from Dec. 27 to 29. Acting as chairman of the Chaucer group, Professor Braddy will read a paper on "The Cook's Moral." His article, "College English in Peace and War," was published in the October issue of Bulletin of Southern Association. Two of his poems have also been published recently, "Remembered Innocence" in Crescendo, September issue, and "Zombie" in the October Living Poetry magazine. With an average of 94.7 per cent, Clark Howard Hilton, 20, of Fort Benton, Mont, won the honor man award of the recently graduated yeoman school class, U.S. Naval Training Center, San Diego, Calif. Clark Hilton Is Honor Man In San Diego Yeoman School For two years he attended the University of Kansas, where he majored in research chemistry. While here he was a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity; served as secretary of the National Thespians, took an active part in the Quill and Scroll society, and for two semesters was on the scholastic honor roll. Hilton was sworn into the Navy at Helena, Mont., last May 12, and received recruit training at Farragut, Idaho. Topping the efforts of 48 shipmates he also was advanced in rating to seaman first class. as they did at the end of the semester because of the shortness of time. It is believed that very few V-12's will remain in Lawrence over the Christmas vacation. Never look a gift horse in the mouth: Homer Hoover, bashful V-12 Phi Delt, brought Betty Frank Carey her Christmas present Sunday afternoon, and B. F. of course, insisted on opening the present in the presence of several other couples. Imagine Homer's surprise and chagrin when Betty opened the locket he had given hed and found "I love you" written inside on a tiny white heart-shaped paper. Homer was endeavoring to stammer out an explanation, when Mrs. Alt, Pi Phi house-mother, said, "Oh, that's all right, Homer. I think it's sweet." Homer is still looking for the cute frat brother who pulled the trick on him. Who blew out the flame? \* \* \* At the Phi Psi shipwreck party Saturday night, Lucky Kunzleman was the life of the party when he blew out all the candles in the already dim cave. However, his popularity hit a sharp decline when he went around striking matches in the darkest corners, inquiring innocently, "Whatcha' doin', huh?" The Mr.-power Shortage: The scarcity of men in campus classes has had a telling effect on K. u. profs. In algebra, Friday, Miss Peterson, turned to Ed Denning, Phi Delt pledge, who had raised his hand and said, "Yes, Miss Denning?" Then Mr. Buehler pulled the same stunt in his speech class when he said, "All right, let's have your speech, Miss Kaarbo," to Cliff Kaarbo, Topeka frosh. The Kappas have a new dog, a white collie, whom they have named Quiet Hours. Prof. Waters to Talk On Labor Disputes Leslie L. Waters, associate professor of economics, will discuss the problem of arbitration of labor disputes at a meeting of the debate squad in room 5. Green hall, tonight, Prof. E. C. Buehler, of the department of speech and drama, has announced. The meeting will be held immediately following the basketball game, instead of at 7:30 p.m., as was previously announced. The national debate question, to which Professor Water's lecture is introductory, is "Resolved, that the federal government should enact legislation requiring the settlement of all labor disputes by compulsory arbitration when voluntary means of settlement have failed, constitutionality conceded." It was selected after a poll had been taken of all colleges and universities in the United States by the National Association of Teachers of Speech. Former Student With Seabees Thomas O. Wilson, former University student, is with the Seabees in the Pacific.

In the Residence Hall-Phi Psi encounter, the issue was never in doubt. Sparkplugged by Saffell and Kaufmann, the hall five went into a commanding 10-1 lead in the first quarter, and were never threatened. Kaufmann hit 13, and Saffell 10, for the winners. Delta Tau Delta annexed its second straight by winning over the younger and smaller draft Dodgers. Miner counted 14 points for the winners, getting fine support all the way. The Draft Dodger hitting was fairly evenly diveded. The thriller of the evening was the Sigma Chi- Dick's Demon battle. The Chi's held a scant 14-13 lead at halftime, but the battling Demons pulled ahead of them, 20-19, as the third quarter ended.

Reports from the front said that Yank counter-offensive had begun to slow down the German advance. Within 18 Miles of Liege By Monday noon, one German column had advanced 20 miles and had reached Stavelot, Belgium. Resistance also mounted on other fronts, but the U.S. Seventh manager to smash its way more than a half mile into the Seigfried line. Headquarters said a force of 300 German paratroopers were dropped to the west of Malmedy in an attempt to disrupt American communications. The three Dutch radios said the Germans had sent one spearhead to within 18 miles of Liege, but added that the Nazi thrust had been sealed and the push to Luxembourg was being stopped. Yanks Mop Up on Levte On the Italian front the British Eighth army made limited gains north of liberated Faenza despite a series of strong German counter-attacks. In the Pacific, two veteran American columns closed in on the dwindling pocket of Jap resistance in the northwestern sector of Leyte. Captured Valencia air port already has been put in to operation by the Yanks. On Mindaro island the Americans drove through the jungles unopposed on their way to enemy positions. Bitter fighting flared on the Russian front as the Soviets smashed into Czechoslovakia for a five mile gain. The Red armies closed in on the vital Slovak rail junction, Kosice, from three sides. 'Kiss Strike Off at LSU Baton Rouge, La.-(INS) A threatened "kiss strike" of the student body of Louisiana State University was off today. Students protested an edict by President W. B. Hatcher that "promiscuous kissing" on the L. S. U. campus must cease. Gloria Jeanne Heller, a coed from Havana, Cuba, who was dismissed when she circulated a mimeographed statement ridiculing the kissing ban, will not be reinstated. The strike plan was dropped after the president of the student council conferred with President Hatcher and cautioned a mass meeting of students not to take action that would harm the school. Kansan to Be Out At Noon Tomorrow All news items must be turned in to the Kansas desk before 10 a.m. she said. The paper will go to press at 11 a.m. tomorrow. Students may get copies of the University Daily Kansan at 12 p.m. tomorrow, Kati Gorrill, managing editor, has announced. The Kankan will resume publication after vacation on Thursday Dec. 28. Christmas Greetings The faculty and the executive officers of the University extend to every student a very personal wish for a merry Christmas. Deane W. Malott, Chancellor 'Quig' Continues To Erase Debt With Gift Bonds Ernest C. Quigley, director of athletics, will speak at the University of Kansas Alumni club in Chicago, Jan. 29, to advance another stride in his drive to erase the debt of the Memorial stadium. This morning's mail and the mail yesterday afternoon brought in $4200 in bonds to Mr. Quigley's office to apply on the debt. Mr. Quigley said that the program is just in second gear. Will Also Speak In Detroit After his engagement in Chicago, Mr. Quigley will speak at Detroit on Jan. 31, and will probably go on to Cleveland and Cincinnati that same week. In organizing the drive, Mr. Quigley obtained lists of every University of Kansas alumni, living or dead, and arranged them in order according to counties. He also has a list of at least five key men in every county on whom he knows he can depend to help see the drive through. He had 10,000 copies of the "K. U. Halo Club" letters printed and has sent the letters to these men in each county who distributed them among the K.U. alumni living in that county. Alumni Contacted Personally In addition to contacting the alumni in this way, Mr. Quigley has personally traveled all over the state making speeches, attending luncheons and dinners, and returning with bonds for the stadium. Mr. Quigley has talked with K.U. alumni in Abilene, Salina, Lindsborg, McPherson, Newton, Halstead, Hutchinson, Wellington, and Topeka this week since his 1:30 p.m. broadcast in Topeka Sunday afternoon. He also attended two luncheons, one in Hutchinson and one in Wichita. He will attend a dinner in Topeka tomorrow night and will contact alumni in Kansas City, Friday and Saturday. He Makes Him Clear Mr. Quigley's attitude toward this campaign is appropriately expressed in a telegram sent in answer to a request of Dale O'Brien, president of the KU. Alumni club in Chicago, for Mr. Quigley to appear as their guest speaker at their Kansas Day dinner. The telegram read: Marjean Carr will play "Un Sospiro" (Lliszt) and Joan Vickers will sing "Se Saran Rose" (Artitti). Robert Overstreet will play Mozart's "Sonata in F" with Allegro, Adagio, and Allegro assai. "Yes sir, I'll be at the Lawson YMCA hotel at 6:30 p.m. Jan. 29. You birds better have your check books." The weekly student recital will be given at 3:30 Thursday afternoon in Fraser theater. Five Will Perform In Weekly Recital "Ruth Rousseff will sing Bachelet's "Cherne Hurt" and as the last number on the program, Anae Krebhel will play Debbiey's "Faut d'Artifice." Greenhouse Features Orchids Orchids to you! Here in the middle of a bleak colorless Kansas winter, with a below freezing temperature, there are orchids blooming on the University of Kansas campus. Lovely, delicate blossoms in various shades of lavender recline majestically in the tropical summer house where one finds an aura of the romanticism of the South Seas. There are a number of different types of orchid plants being developed in the summer house, but the ones in bloom at present are privately owned and being cared for by employees of the Buildings and Grounds. There are three of these plants, with four blooms on one plant, four on another with two more coming, and two blooms on the third. These are the catelaya trianicea. Hybrid Orchids Bloom This Year. Among the other types in the summer house is one that could be grown successfully in a home, but it is smaller and much less showy than the others. Early last July some hybrid orchids bloomed for the first time since they were received by the University as seedlings four years ago and they will probably bloom every summer. Usually orchids do not bloom until they are seven years of age, but these plants were not that old. In October the labiata type of orchid bloomed with seven blossoms, three on one stalk and four on the other. Hybrid Orchids Bloom This Year Plants Are From the South These orchids do not receive a great deal of special care. They are kept in moss roots of ferns with very little dirt and given a chemical feeding every six weeks or two months. The temperature of the summer house is thermostatically controlled and never gets below 73 degrees. The orchids were all imported from southern countries such as Brazil, Central America, and the Hawaiian Islands. Twente's Class Works On Individual Projects Athens—(INS) Greek guerrilla forces today captured Royal Airforce headquarters in Greece located in a hillside resort 10 miles northeast of Athens. Several members of the laboratory section of Miss Esther Twente's class in social case work Twente's class in Social Case Work are working on individual projects Among those doing special work are Betty McDonald and Mary Louise Harling, who are working at the State Division for Vocational Rehabilitation in Kansas City, Kan., and Louise Cochran and Elizabeth Todd, who are doing special work with the same organization in Topeka. One student, Barbara Winn, is doing a project at the Missouri Division of Vocational Rehabilitation in Kansas City, Mo. These students spend approximately two days each month outside Lawrence working on their special projects, Miss Twente said. Myrtle Glover, Virginia Rader, and Marjorie Bentley are working with the Kansas Children's Home and Service League in Topeka; and another student, George Dick, is doing observation at the State Employment Service in Lawrence. College Faculty Approves Courses In Biology and Western Civilization To Be Required For All Freshmen Approval of new courses in biology and western civilization was given by the College faculty yesterday, only after the proposed social science course had drawn intense discussion and a substantial number of negative votes. Time did not allow for action on proposal No. 6 of the faculty committee, which would permit special major fields.

Kansan Board Okays News and Editorial Staff Appointments Although all of the houses still have not turned in money, the amount collected exceeds that in the past few years by about $100. Miss Hepworth said. During the campus drive seals were purchased from representatives in each house, and in Robinson gymnasium. Seal Drive Total Reaches $485.59 Houses contributing and amounts are, Gamma Phi Beta, $13.35; Alpha Delta Pi, $13.50; Pi Beta Phi, $13.16; Sigma Kappa, $10; Alpha Omicron Pi, $16.35; Kappa Kappa Gamma, $23; Kappa Alpha Theta, $25; Corbin Hall, $27.35; Chi Omega, $25;Delta Gamma, $10; 1245 Oread, $5; Batten-feld hall, $7.10; Tipperary, $18; Harmon Co-op, $5; Campus house, $5; Miller hour, $15.40. With 38 organized houses contributing, the final collection from the sale of tuberculosis seals totaled $485.59, Eugenia Hepworth, campus chairman, said today. Leading the organized houses in sale of seals with $30 was Alpha Chi Omega, and leading the men's organized houses was Beta Theta Pi with a total of $28. The Kansan board approved the news staff for the rest of this semester yesterday. Editorial associates for the new staff are Elizabeth Baker and Joan Veatch. Campus editors are Betty Jennings, Dixie Gilliland, and Ruth Tippin. Betty Jo O'Neal will continue as society editor. Kati Gorrill will be news editor, Virginia Van Order will be exhale editor, and Jeanne Shoemaker will keep her position of wire editor. The two new courses in biology will be required of all freshmen, and are designed to give them a background and basic understanding of all of the branches of exact science in this group. The editorial associates were appointed by the editor-in-chief, Dorothy McGill and the news staff members were put up for approval by the managing editor Delores Sulzman and the assis it managing editor. Maxine Ro Miss McGill, Sulaman, and Miss Rowsey were elected to their positions by members of the Kansas board a week ago. The next regular Kansan board meeting will be January 8. They are designed to eliminate the preparatory courses of each branch and prevent duplication. The first course of three hours will include lectures, demonstrations and assigned field work. The second three hours will include laboratory work. Amendments were made and considerable interpretation given to the courses in western civilizedtoin before they were adopted. The amendments provided that a committee of six faculty members from departments concerned shall supervise the courses and that the University shall supply adequate funds for instructional and tutorial work and library supplier. The motion on the amendment to supply funds was seconded by Chancellor Malott as a gesture to insure its success. The principal objection to the courses on western civilization was not the objective and aims, but the methods proposed, opponents of the measure said. Besides being in conflict with the idea back of the English and speech courses already approved, they said the courses would not work with beginners. They suggested applying them to upperclassmen, or at least making them optional. Dean Paul B. Lawson announced that the credits would not count as a part of work required in any department major. The Y. W. C. A. vesper program will begin at 7:30 tonight at the Methodist church, Elizabeth File, chairman of the Y. W. C. A. membership meetings committee, has announced.

TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE; KANSAS WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS THE KA Americans Plan Extensive Trips For Post-War Post-war planning is indeed a pleasant occupation. Much of it will probably be no more than "wool-gathering," or wishful thinking, but it provides an opportunity to plan constructively for a more -or- less clearly defined future. Probably the favorite topic of post-war planning is travel. Ships Magazine has published the results of a survey about American post-war travel plans, indicating that almost ten times more Americans care planning ocean travel after the war than have traveled extensively before. Three-fourths of those who replied to the questionnaire that they planned to travel admitted that they would be travelling for pleasure only. Many Americans believe, the survey indicates, that ocean travel will give them rest, relaxation, and change of scene that they need to soothe war nerves. Europe has ceased to be the fashionable place to travel, although many plan to see England, South America, Hawaii, and the Pacific islands are the other favored vacation spots in post-war If their plans develop into facts, there should be an internationalization of ideas—at least, an appreciation and understanding of other points of view. At any rate, world tolerance seems to be possible, and firsthand knowledge of places and people is the best way to encourage a tolerant attitude. Try to understand a point of view other than your own, and your respect and knowledge of the other person will influence your thinking as well as others. The world wide tolerance of everyone is needed especially in a speeded-up economy where all persons and nations are neighbors. Post-war international travel will have a tremendous effect on an international organization or a third world war. If you are travelling after the war, remember the significance of your acts and ideas, and build toward a more tolerant world. Three KU Alums Are On "1000 Stars" List In Science Dictionary Three additional University of Kansas alumni have been added to the "1000 stars", in the 7th edition of the American Men of Science. This large dictionary of scientific men in the country, star 1,000 of those who are the most outstanding. Chester H. Heuser, 1908 was listed for his work in anatomy. In the geology division Carey G. Croners of 1923 is named. John D. Strong of 1926 is starred for the physics division. He is now doing confidential war work at Harvard. Mr. Strong paid tribute to the University in a recent letter when he wrote, "There is no better society than that of Lawrence where people are more concerned over the strength and development of their proteges than over the power and influence of their patrons." One Kansan on Casualty List Washington,- (INS) -The navy department today announced 248 casualties of the U.S. naval forces (navy, marine corps, and coast guard), not heretofore released on navy department casualty lists. The list included Rodger Wallace Jones, aviation, ordnanceman, 2/e; USNR missing, parents, Mr. and Mrs. David E. Jones, Syrause. Rock Chalk Talk Gulilble "Ginny"— While waiting for Marion Miller, song leader, and several other Gamma Phis to return from Vesper practice Saturday night, some couples began to play bridge. Finding bridge a little difficult, one group decided to play a "new" game. It was Virginia Urban who was on the floor a few minutes later, the victim of the old "S2-pick-up" gag. By the way, Virginia, what is the difference between the awkward squad and the firing squad? Or is that a secret between you and the Phi Betes?

"Because the origin of the arrow-heads is known, they are important for studies which will show what type of artifacts the original inhabitants of Kansas used." Dr. E. R. Hall, director of Dyche museum, said "Through such interest we are able to build up an invaluable collection at Dyche."

The first half of the game was very slow, with both teams hitting a low percentage of their shots. Then the Jayhawks, paced by Charlie Moffett and Kirk Scott, began hitting the basket from all angles while successfully bottling up the Hawk offense. Moffett tallied twelve points, and Scott hit for eleven. K.U. Takes Early Lead The game opened slowly, neither team playing first class ball. K. U. went into a 6-1 lead early in the first quarter, but the fighting Hawks all but evened the count on free throws. Holding only an 8-7 lead at the start of the second quarter. Herb Heim hit a long one from the field, and the Kansans were never again threatened. Things started rapidly in the second half. Moffett hit two quick lay-in shots a few minutes after the whistle had sounded, and Scott countered with another spectacular one-handed set shot. Then he and Moffett hit again to put the Jayhawks in a 39-23 lead. From there on out the fireworks cooled considerably, the teams seeming only to want to get it over with. Gill Bourke and Melvin Pace paced the Hawks with ten points each. Bourke hit five from the field and Pace three. Briley Called into Service Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen anounced this morning that Jim Briley, sub for Charlie Moffett at the center post, had received his call to report for air forces induction on Dec. 28, leaving the Jayhawks short handed. Allen also stated that some of the other 18-year olds were due to be called soon.

Fans and players allike were saying it was the weirdest exhibition of basketball they had seen in a long long time. The easiest explanation of the whole contest would be to say that both teams were cold as a pitcher of ice water. The Hawks had been on the road three days, and had been beaten twice in a row since they met K.U. in Kansas City last week. Any team would be slightly worn out after such a road trip, and the young, inexperienced Kansas Citians were no exception. The Jayhawks, though, showed they still have a long way to go before they are ready for Big Six competition. In the matter of hitting baskets from the field, the Kansans had one of their coldest nights of the season. The weakest link in the entire team structure, though, was team play. While flashing late season brilliance at isolated intervals, the young cagers far too often showed a sad lack of knowledge of plays, which kept them from tripling the score on the hapless Rockhursters. Charlie Moffett and Kirk Scott played fairly consistent floor games, but even these two "veterans" looked bad too often. Jayhawk rebounding was also noticeably weak, although Allen kept his better rebounders out of most of the contest. Sidelines—Ray Lance, son of John Lance, Pittburg Teachers basketball coach, played a fine game at the pivot post last night, although the cager had been out only a few days. Lance shows rebounding power, too, something the Jayhawks are needing badly . . . Jim Basse, tricky Rockhurst guard, displayed plenty of fight last night despite the fact that its right arm is almost totally use- Tonight's Schedule Men's intramural basketball games scheduled for tonight; games scheduled for tonight: Kappa Signus versus Draft Dodgers, A-league, 7.30, Robinson, east; Sigma Nu versus Phi Delt, A-league, 8.30, Robinson, east; S.

Because of irregularities resulting from accelerated programs, short terms, and full-term summer sessions, the chapter suspended its practice of holding the regular fall election at which only a few seniores with remarkably high scholastic records were chosen. The 15 elected yesterday include some who would ordinarily be in chosen spring. The seniors elected are Louise Cochran, Charles Cowan, Doris Dunkley, Margaret May FitzGibbon, Marianne Glad, Louise Hatch, Betty Learned, Jane Malin, Frances Ann Morrill, Hamah Roberts, and Persis Snook. The graduates are Miss Mariorie Evans, Thomas Perdue. Robert Stevens, and Pvt. Betty Lee Kalis, who is in W. A.C. basic training at Des Moines, Iowa. The candidates will be initiated in January at a tea, probably in the Pine room. Dr. J. H. Nelson, assistant dean of the Graduate school, will give the lecture which traditionally follows the initiation ceremony. Officers of the Kansas Phi Beta Kappa chapter are Dr. Walter E. Sandellius, president; Miss Vesta B. Lear, vice-president; Ray mond Nichols, secretary; and Dr. L. R. Lind, treasurer. Miss Emma Wagner and Miss Lear are the committee on undergraduate nominations; they gather the data on the basic of which elections are made. Senators Condemn Allies' Power Politics Washington—(INS)—Sen. Burton K. Wheeler, Domocrat, Montana, and Sen. Joseph H. Ball, Republican, Minnesota, agreed today that the Dumbarton Oaks agreement will have hard sledding in the senate unless Britain and Russia alter their "power politics" policies. Ball said an early meeting of the big three is most urgently needed, and added that we must insist on establishment of the principle of the Atlantic charter and that there be no more unilateral agreements in Europe. Both men accused America's major Allies of "playing power politics." Weather Forecast KFKU Cloudy with light snow today. Highest temperatures 25 to 30. Tonight clearing and continued cold. Friday.

NUMBER 64 Shortest Day May Seem Longest Today is the shortest day of 1944, if you are considering daylight; but to those who are anxious to get home for the Christmas holiday, it will probably seem the longest. In the minds of the impatient students the whistle bleat at 60 minute instead of every 50 minute intervals this morning. Afternoon classes promise to mentally lengthen even more. In addition to the students who are accusing the man who blows the whistle of sabatoge, there are those conscious objectors who are saying, "We might have known it . . . Not only did the University cut our vacation to one week—it picked the week with the shortest days in the year." But on the whole the Christmas spirit of peace on earth, good will to men prevails today—even between students and administration. In this shortest day there will be only 9 hours and 15 minutes of daylight, and with cloudy weather, the effect of the sun won't be too noticeable. Tomorrow may be just as short, but thereafter the days will begin to lengthen. By the time students have returned from their vacation there will be a little daylight before that first class. An old saying is, "When the days begin to lengthen, the cold begins to strengthen." If this is true, there is much cold weather ahead. Better take a flashlight as you go home tonight.

Other teams entered are Nebraska and Colorado: With the lineup changing constantly from game to game so far this season, Coach "Phog" Allen could make no predictions as to who would start Friday night against the Aggies, but the choice will undoubtedly fall among eight players. Gordon Reynolds, Owen Peck, and Whitey Carlson have been giving better than average performances at forward; Charlie Moffett and Jim Briley have sewed up the center post; while Everitt Hill, Kirk Scott, and Herb Heim are fighting for the guard positions. Briley, though, will be called into service shortly after the two games, reporting induction into the air corps on Dec. 28. (continued to page two) Six Rescued This Morning In Downtown Fire Six persons were rescued this morning from flames which caused the complete destruction of their apartments on the second floor of the Lawrence Building and Loan building at Massachusetts and eighth streets. The fire, reported at 7:25, is believed to have started in the back of the Oil-o-Matic heating shop of the L. T. Harris Co., said Paul Ingels, fire chief, and it swept through the ceiling to the apartments above. In addition to the three apartments and the Oil-o-Matics office which suffered a total loss of internal fixtures, the offices of Dr. M. T. Sudler directly over the Building and Loan office, of Dr. H. R. Lindenburg over the Garich Professional Prescription pharmacy and the office of Dr. H. T. Jones at 107 East Eighth street were badly smoked. In the Security Investment Co., 109 E. Eighth street a number of records were destroyed by water and debris falling from above according to Karl Kreider, owner. The pharmacy and the Building and Loan office itself were not damaged. Fire Discovered at 7:15 The fire was detected by Miss Zella Turner who was awakened around 7:15 by a crackling at the door of her apartment, which she thought was her roommate, Marilla Ruebenhausen returning from work at Sunflower Ordnance Works. Turning on the light, however, she noticed smoke in the room and immediately called the fire department. "Before the trucks came smoke began rolling into the apartment, so I ran to the back window off the alley and screamed for help. It seemed years before anyone came," Miss Turner who works at the Green Lantern cafe, said. Miss Turner was taken down a ladder by firemen, escaping with only a reversable raincoat and her houselipers.

This was the statement of the students of the University yesterday before the weather man so obligingly sent a paper-thin blanket of snow last night for the Christmas holidays. "White Christmas" may yet become a reality. The destruction inflicted upon the U.S. First army by the current German counter attacks appears about equal to that suffered by the British This morning the campus with its snow-covered streets resembled, by a great deal of imagination, a Christmas card. Many students will leave Mount Oread today in its new promise of a winter wonderland with its Christmas decorations. Campus decorations are still in style, although they are not as elaborate as those in pre-war days. Hoch auditorium, with its Gothic architecture, is the perfect setting for the Christmas trees brilliantly lighted with green, blue, and red light bulbs. Another Christmas tree, with popcorn and tinsel decorations, is standing in the rotunda of Frank Strong hall, waving to passing students, reminding them of the tree at home, which parents have left for the homecoming student to decorate. Organized houses have entered into the Yuletide spirit by trimming fir trees on their premises and hanging holly and mistletoe (naturally). Greek letter signs have been br. out into the open and lighted up for additional color to the houses' Christmas ornamentation. at Dunkerque, a Reuters correspondent reported today. He described the scene near Stavelot, Belgium, as "chaotic" with "wrecked American equipment similar to the casual eye to the devastation of Dunkerque." The worst of the giant German offensive against the U.S. First army was believed over today, although a brief announcement from the supreme headquarters said the main thrust of the German offensive was continuing to move westward. A heavy fog which gugged over the western front gave the Nazi attackers an advantage, as Yank air forces were grounded. The Allies were able to fly only six sorties along the German offensive front whereas the number usually runs into the hundreds and occasionally thousands. Success was not all for the Nazis however, as American armor and infantry divisions drove the Germans from Stavelot, Belgium, and at several other places. The Germans were disclosed to have advanced to within two miles of St. Vith, and have reached the vicinity of Mastelt five miles farther south. There have been no changes in the line north of Monschan along the Roer river. The Germans also stepped up their activity along the U.S. Seventh army front as German patrols crossed the Rhine above Starsburg and infiltrated into American positions. Farther south the Seventh made small gains. American B-29 super fortresses made a new smash at Japanese war production cities in a heavy air attack against industrial plants in Manchuria.

TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THIRSDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS University Plan Proves Ability For Adjustment Return of the University to the two-semester plan after a brief trial of the three-term year was hailed by differing opinions. The last few years have been unusual examples of adjustment, of adaptability to change, of the elasticity of schedule. With demands by both the Army and the Navy two years ago, an entire new arrangement was needed. The machinist's mates, then the electrician's the V-5's and V-12's; the Marines for a short while; the A.S.T.P. and A.S.T.R.P.; and civilians all demanded consideration. Many people said that the University could never harmonize such a motley crowd. The experiment is not over yet, of course, and the true success cannot be determined until a longer perspective is possible. Parts of the program have proved irksome to nearly all those concerned with it, but pleasing everyone is impossible. Students, faculty, trainees, and now veterans, have done their part by fitting into the scheme. Will it be successful? It has meant resorting to five-week and six-week sessions, it has meant condensing and accelerating the regular semester into 16 weeks, and it has meant fewer and shorter vacations for everyone. Yet the University has met the demands, and has grown stronger from the experience. University students have taken heavy courses, worked extra, and joined organizations they felt were doing their share in the war work. The frivolity of the peace-time University has diminished to a new low; the serious student, with his mind intent on education with a purpose, is the rule rather than the exception. Doing their part on the home front is not as satisfactory in some ways as piloting a bomber or manning a machine gun, but it is as important. It is the spirit of cooperation, of sincere effort, of democracy, that is undefeitable. What if you have planned your schedule for the rest of your college work on the three-semester plan? What if you do want a longer vacation at Christmas time? You can have it—after the war is won. Keep the main purpose of winning the war in mind, co-operate in every way toward that end, and work together with your University. That is the democratic way.

The front, east apartment in the building was occupied by Mrs. Fay Brock and her 84-year old father, James B. Galbraith. Mrs. Brock left the building by a ladder while firemen forced their way through a door into the apartment to carry her father down the smoked-filled stairs. Miss Josephine Brock and her sister, Miss Margaret Brock, occupied the apartment above the Oil-o-Matic. They were awakened by the smell of smoke shortly after the fire had been reported and were able to leave the building before flames swept their rooms.

Pohlenz to Advise 'Hotel Berlin' Filming Peter Pohlenz, former exchange student at the University in 1938 from Germany, will act as technical adviser on Gestapo activities for the new motion picture, "Hotel Berlin." He was persecuted for leading the opposition to the Nazi movement while a professor of sociology at the College of Hamburg. As quoted by a Hollywood columnist, Pohlenz remarked, "This motion picture will give me a wider field-to show the terrors of the Nazi regime than any college room could ever have done." This contract with Warners is my answer to German threats." Pohlenz took out citizenship papers soon after leaving the University. He has been serving in the U.S. infantry, stationed in California.

Ward Plants Chicago-INS—Following a meeting of governmental army officials with executives of Montgomery Ward & Company here at noon today, Sewell Avery, head of the mail order firm refused to turn the business over to the government and steps were being taken immediately to obtain a court injunction and order to effect seizure. Washington—INS--President Roosevelt ordered army seizure of Montgomery Ward property in seven cities today with a declaration that the government "cannot and will not tolerate any interference with war production in this critical hour." Mr. Roosevelt directed War Secretary Stimson to act in order to prevent a collapse of the nation's wartime labor relations machinery. It was the second time the government has taken over Montgomery Ward property this year. Then as now the seizure stemmed from the company's refusal to obey war labor board directive to include maintenance of membership clauses in the contracts with the union and the resultant strikes. The Kansas City plant was not immediately affected by the order since it has not defied a war labor board objective. A wage dispute of that unit is pending.

Dr. Ise Predicts More Dark Ages; Says Era of Freedom Is Declining Students of Dr. John Ise, of the department of economics, are familiar with his predictions concerning the "Coming Dark Ages," but few are familiar,with his editorial, written 10 years ago in March, 1934, in which he saw many of the present conditions. The Daily Kansan has asked Dr. Ise to comment on his famous editorial, telling how his predictions are evident today and also giving a preview of what will happen in the coming years. Following is Dr. Ise's reply to the Daily Kansan: So you are wondering about my "coming dark ages" that I predicted about eleven years ago, in March, 1934. Well, my prediction still stands, but I do not believe I would want to make the dark ages in too much detail. As I remember it, I was quite pessimistic about our own recovery from the depression, and about the depression situation in almost all countries; and I believed that fascism would spread to other countries from Germany and Italy. The barbarities of Mussolini in Italy, of Hitler in Germany, and of other dictators in Hungary and Poland, were fairly well advertised at that time. Predicted World War II Fascist leaders in Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, France, Spain, Finland, Norway, Belgium, Holland Well, I don't think that this is a bad record of predictions. We never did get out of the depression—the Great Depression—until the outbreak of World War II. There were about 8 million unemployed in 1939. We have had both the war and the spread of fascism, and the war is not over. I said that "there are strong fascist movements in practically every European country." (continued to page four) Coke Slang Amusin' --- Confusin! It seemed almost inevitable that No, you haven't been transported to a foreign country or some distant planet, and that isn't pig Latin, goon talk, or the Up language to which you're listening. And still, you're ears aren't deceiving you. It's just the campus waiters and waitresses amusing themselves and confusing the customers with a bit of vocal gymnastics that they call drug store slag. "Whether it be war or the spread of fascism, the United States will inevitably be affected by the decline of European civilization. In fact, already we are building a navy which is good for only one thing—war! And it is a good guess that our navy officials think that this expansion is looking toward a clash with Japan." Fascist Movements are Universal there would be another world war, as I saw it then, that the war would destroy much of what we have called European "civilization" and that we would be gravely affected by this. Here is what the Kansan reported for me: You calmly enter the Jayhawk or the Union fountain to be greeted with a voice screeching in your ear, "Shoot one sour," or "Red riding hood," or "Farmer's delight." — or worse. The reason for the odd conglomeration of sounds and general murdering of the King's English, the waiters maintain, is to abbreviate their orders to those behind the counter. You couldn't prove it by us though, and we're beginning to understand why orders take so long. Seems like a lot more time and energy are wasted on the slang than would be expended in using good ol' English. There's a method In this madness though, for Clif and Miss Zipple have instructed their employees to talk in this peculiar manner so that the customers won't know what they're getting. The mystery prevails even after the orders have arrived. That's why so few people know what the waiters mean when they shout lustily, "Cow on the hoof," or, "One of the best." (Contrary to public opinion "one of the best" is not a bottle of beer.) Here are a few of the more expressive expressions used at the local student hangouts.

His appearances before the two local groups will be in addition to his convocation address on the Monday forenoon following. Mr. Brandt was a former student in the College. He came to the University on transfer from Friends university and became a speech major with a minor in journalism. His work as a photographer while on the campus gave him prestige, and it was the pursuit of this vacation that brought him fame as a press photographer on the European battle fronts. Fierce Battle Rages Near Bastogne With 20 Nazi Divisions in Action German Drive Temporarily Halted Fierce fighting broke out today along the southern flank of the western front near Bastogne and it was officially announced that more than 20 German divisions were participating in the temporarily checked Nazi drive.

Slight Withdrawal in Italy American Fifth army forces in western Italy did not fare so well. Mediterranean headquarters reported that the Americans had made slight withdrawals in the face of continued German offensive. But on the eastern front the Germans fell back as the Russian armies smashed through the streets of Budapest after crossing the Danube north of the Hungarian capital and cutting in two the defending German troops. The American offensive on the western front stretched along 35 miles of the southern flank from southwest of Bastogne to the Echernach area along the Luxemburg-German frontier to the east.

Lawson, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, has announced. The physical therapy profession, which won recognition in World War I, is expanding rapidly in the present war. Physical therapy aides treat the wounded returning from the battlefronts, both overseas and in this country. They have an important role in hastening the return of our men to duty. They play a vital part in the rehabilitation and adjustment of our fighting men's lives. They will be exceedingly important in fitting many of these men for a useful civilian life. The program is being offered for young women who want a liberal education, and at the same time, wish to prepare for professional work which is both interesting and of decided humanitarian value, Dean Lawson said. Although it is expected that the majority of physical therapists will be women, the program is open to men and it is believed there will be many opportunities for them to practice the profession. Program Provides Interesting Work The physical therapy program offers a vitally interesting profession to young women who have an interest in medicine and who enjoy working with individuals. This field includes the treatment of various disease conditions by physical measures, such as massage, exercise, and by the various forms of heat, light, water, and electricity. The demand for physical therapists by the military forces is at the present time enormous. After the war, it is expected that much of the military demand for these workers will be replaced by a large-demand for trained physical therapists in civilian hospitals, children's hospitals, and industrial medical units, because this relatively new phase of medical therapy is sure to play an increasingly important part in medical and hospital practice. In addition to practitioners there is a growing demand for teachers of physical therapy. Liberal Arts Included in Course During the first six semesters of the training at the University, the student takes courses in English, foreign language, chemistry, physics, anatomy, bacteriology, physiology, psychology, sociology and other social sciences, several courses in physical education, and has considerable opportunity to elect a number of college courses. In these six semesters, the student receives the fundamentals of a good liberal arts course. The seventh and eighth semesters are spent at the University of Kansas hospitals in Kansas City. During this (continued to page two) --- TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY DECEMBER 28, 1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Fag Shortage Grows Worse Throughout U.S. Despite efforts and promises by Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, United States senate committee, and the Office of Price Administration, the cigarette shortage has grown steadily worse. Overseas, issuance of cigarettes to all correspondents was stopped; and in New York, one grocer estimated that 80 per cent of his customers were hoarding from two to a dozen cartons apiece. For this situation, the department of agriculture reported recently, no relief in sight. There might be a slight easing of the shortage caused by hoarders, the black market, shortage of laborers to harvest tobacco crops, rising demands, and shipping priority of ammunition over cigarette, but no real let-up can be expected until the European war is over. The production of cigarettes is at the highest level the industry has ever known, but civilian demand, as well as the demand by servicemen, is also at an all-time high. The military services will take 75 billion cigarettes of the 1944 output for shipment overseas. This would leave only 250 billion cigarettes for domestic use, almost 8 billion short of the amount produced for domestic consumption last year. Many solutions to the shortage have been suggested and considered. Foremost among these is rationing. The O.P.A. brushed aside this suggestion, however, for the agency saw in rationing an enforcement headache of monstrous proportions and believed that there was little reason to suppose it would afford relief. Another plan considered was to freeze cigarette sales for a period ranging from two days to two weeks until distribution pipelines were filled again. This idea, as well as the suggestion to import tobacco, seemed impractical to O.P.A. officials. Ships are not available to carry tobacco imports, and, even if they were, domestic manufacturers would be reluctant to change their blends by adding foreign tobaccos. A shift by smokers to cigars and pipes would not solve the problem as both cigars and pipe tobacco would become scarce if many smokers were to shift at the same time. Abolishing the restrictions on production has often been suggested. After the huge 1939 crop drove down cigarette prices, the national acreage allotment for flue-cured tobacco was cut 20 per cent. These restrictions on production, however, have been relaxed yearly. In fact, this year farmers fell short of planting their allotted acreage due to the labor shortage. None of the ideas proposed so far holds the answer to this new famine. The problem is here to stay for some time.

A victory over Kansas State Friday night, 63-40, and a loss to a battling Missouri five on Saturday, 48-39, gives the Kansans a 4-2 margin over their rivals so far this season. The Jayhawks own two victories over Rockchurch, an even break with Washburn, a victory over Kansas State, and a loss to Missouri, Moffett in Top Form The Jayhawks were at their best in trouncing the hapless Aggies in the first of the two weekend games. Although the game was ragged, both teams fouling more than was necessary, the Kanaans, led by veteran Charlie Moffett, put on a spectacular hitting show that left the Wildcats far in the rear. The speedy Peabody forward was in his best form of the season, tallying 25 points in the hectic battle. Everett Hill, Gordon Reynolds, and Kirk Scott netted 8 points, while Odd Williams tallled 12. Jay Payton was high man for the Aggies with 10 counters. Each team missed fourteen free throws. The second game of the twin bill was not so successful. The Jays evidently exhausted all their scoring punch on the previous night, for they just couldn't seem to keep up with the Tiger scoring pace. Moffett was not up to par in the game, hitting only one field goal. He played only about one-half of the contest. Tigers Pull Away The Tigers went into a 21-8 lead early in the game, and the Kanssens were never able to make up the deficit. With only ten minutes to play, however, the Jayhawks were just 5 points behind, but the Tigers pulled away quickly to ice the game. Scott hit 9 for the Hawks, Reynolds tallied 7 points, while Williams connected for 6. Kurash lead the Mizzoz scoring with 16 points. The next home game will be with Nebraska on Jan. 16.

In the war against the Japanese the tides of battle were in the Al-Tokyo area again and the Phillipies' favor. Superfortresses hit the pine-based planes and PT boats struck a blow against the Japanese naval force. Yanks Strike Jap Naval Force INKS STRIKE JAP NAVAL FORCE The number of attacking super bombers was not made known. The Japanese had claimed a force of approximately 50 planes made the raid. General Douglas MacArthur reported from the Philippines that American medium bombers, fighters, and PT boats, had struck a Jap naval force attempting to assault southwestern Mindaro island installations, sinking three enemy destroyers and damaging one battle ship and one heavy cruiser. Five Cage Teams Remain Unbeaten In I-M Play In the three intramural basketball contests played Wednesday night, Dec. 20, the Kappa Sig's triumphed over the Draft Dodgers, 33-18, the Sigma Nu five lost to the Phi Delts, 24-32, and the Phi Gam trounced the Sig Aphs, 30-11. The Beta-Phi Psi game was postponed until late in the season because of conflicting dates. The Phi Delt's took their third straight triumph of the current season by shellacing the Sigma Nu's, while the Kappa Sig's registered their second win, both in the "A" league. The SAE-Phi Gam game was a "B" league battle for possession of the cellar. The next round of games will begin Wednesday night in Robinson gymnasium.

Warren Hile read the double ring ceremony. The bride was given in marriage by her father. Miss Lois Turner, sister of the bride, was maid of honor, and Miss Eloise Smith of Kansas City, sister of the groom, was bridesmaid. The bridegroom was attended by Eldon Aarbous as best man, and Richard Matson, who also were ushers. Other ushers were L. M. Simpson and Boris Ivanhoe. All the men are V-12 students at the University. Both Mr. and Mrs. Smith are former students at the University. Mrs. Smith has been employed at the Denver, Colo., Modification Center, and Mr. Smith is now a student at Chicago University in the naval reserve. The couple left for a short wedding trip before going to Chicago where they will make their home.

ISE---in Russia alone, killed by the Nazis, starved, or exposed to the cold. Looks Dark Enough to Ise — BUY U.S. WAR BONDS — (continued from page one) and Argentina have since betrayed their countries and lined up with Hitler. Hundreds of century-old churches and historic buildings have been destroyed. Millions of people in Europe have been killed by the Nazis, the Japs, and others. One estimate is that 40 million have died But when the war is over, then everything will be fine, won't it—a nice, durable peace with democracy and the Four Freedoms and the Atlantic Charter and all the side dishes, including apple sauce? I gravely doubt it—all but the apple sauce. How can we even be sure that there will be any peace after the war? Side Wars Will Continue Perhaps a natural optimist will say all this isn't a "dark ages", but it looks pretty dark to me. I'm naturally sympathetic; I never could bear up cheerfully under the sufferings of so many millions of other people. The main circus will presumably be closed for a while, but there may well be a number of side wars in various parts of the world that some one will have to look after. Churchill seems to be supporting reactionary fascist or semi-fascist movements in Greece, Italy, Argentina, Spain, and Belgium. Roosevelt's policies are little better, notwithstanding Stettinius' rebuke of Churchill's Greek policy. Peace is not Guaranteed When the pot calls the kettle black, that doesn't shine up the pot appreciably. Fascism under new management for some of the "liberated" countries will not keep the peace. If, for instance, we help fascist Chiang Kai Shek drive the Japs out of China, that will not bring peace in China, when so many Chinese people are fighting for a more democratic regime. If we help Great Britain nail down her control of India, that will not bring real peace in India. If the British bolster up a fascist regime in Greece, that will not bring peace in Greece. Collectivism will Reien In short, the world is moving toward collectivism, so rapidly that perhaps some countries will have to choose, immediately after the war, whether their collectivism will be democratic, socialism, or communism, on the one hand, or fascism, on the other. Some of them are already choosing. Status quo will no longer serve. I hope that the United States may have at least a few years grace, or possibly a few decades. Not very far in the future, however, as history is measured, we will have to make the same choice, and today, although we are moving toward democratic socialism in some of our government policies, the odds appear to favor fascism. That will be the Dark Ages—some more of the Dark Ages that we already see about us. It Northwestern University is adding 14 new advanced courses to the curricula next quarter. should fall short of the barbary of Nazi Germany, but it will mean severe restriction of human freedom. Freedom is on Decline The era of extraordinary freedom which characterized capitalist growth during the period of free lands and expansion throughout the world— roughly the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries—is now drawing to a close. We will see—we do see—more government intervention, more regimentation. If we fall under fascist domination this will proceed very rapidly. Fascism Given Odds The case is not quite hopeless. The widespread protest at Churchill's policy in Greece, and here at home the revolt over Roosevelt's appointments of state department officials who are apparently sympathetic with fascism, show that there some vitality in democratic forces. We may follow the democratic trail, but I believe most students of the problem would bet on fascism, in one form or another. Whatever the form, it will surely be preferable to domination by Hitler.

Professor Geltch To Give Program Of Violin Music When the instrument is put to use, according to Major Immel, the question which governs the treatment of the person on trial is "How many times had the accused in the preceding case been flogged for a like offense" In the teaching field, Professor Geltch has been head of the violin departments of three large state universities, South Dakota, Wisconsin, and Kansas. He has the distinction of being the first violinist to broadcast a concerto over the air, when 1922 he played a Vieuxtemps concerto over WHA, at the University of Wisconsin. Waldemar Geltch, head of the School of Fine Arts department of violin, will present his annual recital at 8 p.m. Wednesday in Fraser theater. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1944 (continued to page four) Professor Geltch has had an interesting record in his training and experience as a violinist. He graduated with highest bonors from the Chicago Musical college in competition with 22 other violinists, and the following year as post-graduate, he was again awarded first prize for superior playing. Taught in Three Universities He studied with Bernhard Listemann, one-time concert master of the Boston Symphony orchestra, with Emile Sauret, great French violinist, and with Leopold Auer, famous violin pedagogue of this generation, and teacher of Jascha Heifetz, Mischa Elman and other distinguished artists. Mr. Goltch has had an extensive concert experience, having played more than 1300 concerts in more than 130 American colleges, universities, and academies. Has Given Recital Each Year The formidable looking "persuader" is a piece of cable about 18 inches long,covered with black rubber. Bundles of wire can be seen at the cut ends. A Nazi judge's robe, two Nazi jurist's caps, and a Nazi court room "persuader" arrived yesterday morning at the office of F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law. He came to the University of Kansas in 1922 and each year has given a complete recital besides appearing frequently before various clubs and civic groups in Lawrence and throughout the state. In the recital Wednesday evening Professor Geltch will be accompanied by Winifred Hill Gallup. Nazi Articles Will Be Shown In Green Hall Dean Moreau has been waiting for several weeks for the arrival of the articles from Maj. Howard M. Immel, who found the court room equipment at a courthouse in Aachen, Germany, after the Nazis had gone. The articles will be on display in a case in the law library in Green hall, Dean Moreau said. NUMBER.66 Reuters Claims Papandreou Has Virtually Resigned London—(INS) —Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden and Prime Minister Churchill returned to London today from Athens where they have been participating in Anglo-Greek discussions. Reuters reported from Athens that Prime Minister Georges Papandreou virtually has resigned his office. Army and Avery Now Run Ward's Chicago — (INS) — Business as usual was the order of the day at Montgomery Ward company today despite the presence of two bosses. The Army insisted it was running the $500,000,000 mail order business, and Sewell Avery insisted he was still the boss. Avery said his position has not changed and never will. "I'm going to work now and every day." Other Ward executives occupied their usual offices while the army worked in a suite assigned to it. In Washington, Attorney General Biddle said there were no plans forceably to eject Avery, whom he described as "harmless." He said Avery would be permitted to stay in his office and added that "he is a tough guy and probably will stick to his guns." Biddle said the only constitutional right of Avery that could be involved would be taking property without compensation and added that seizure provides such for any damages under government operation. He indicated there would be no attempt to include the Kansas City store unless there is an additional order from the war department. Stettinius—Eden Meet Announced New York —(INS)— The British radio said today that United States Secretary of State Stettinius and British Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden will meet in London to discuss the Greek situation. Grinders Vacationed In Library Although most University students forgot assignments during Christmas vacation, a few remaining in Lawrence studied, attendance at Watson library revealed. The students, graduate students, and faculty members who used the library during the four days that it was open apparently tried to compensate for small attendance by checking out a large number of books. Mrs. Magda Jensen, librarian at the education desk, made use of the general absence of students and cleaned house in her department. (Notice the shine on the desk when you check out your next required reading.) After such enterprise, Mrs. Jensen is still regretting that she didn't have time to polish the student reading desks in the room. Other library functions continued as usual during the vacation, C. M. Baker, director of libraries, said. Shelving, checking, filing, and other work not apparent to the student checking out a book, was done. However, Miss Esther Norman, head of the circulation department, asserted that the staff "really welcomed the students' return". Games and Devotions Will Be Featured At New Year's Party A recreational and devotional program has been planned by the Student Religious Counseil for its New Year's watch party Sunday night, Dorothy Cooper, publicity chairman of the organization, has announced.

The Nipponese radio said U. S. naval vessels bombarded Bohol island southwest of Leyte, and told of an attack on a U.S. 30-transport convoy while it was moving westward, presumably headed toward Luzon. The enemy claimed that six of the American ships were sunk and two damaged. (International News Service) Budget Approval Under Request German forces in the Belgium-Luxembourg budge today were fighting strictly defensive battles, and in at least one sector were No building program except a recommended appropriation from the state building fund was included. The governor said he would leave that problem for the legislature, but that he contemplates a five-year program which would spend a total of about seven and one-half million dollars. His recommendations will be made in his message to the lawmakers. Of the 12,812,013 requested for Kansas educational institutions in the state budget for 1945-47 biennium beginning July 1, only 3,978.297 was approved yesterday. Governor Schoeppel approved a state budget calling for nearly 20 per cent more than the $19,520,000 appropriated by the 1913 legislature. The total of $23,193,155 of increased state expenditures will fall largely in the fields of materials and maintenance. Only general fund expenditures were considered. Other principal categories considered besides educational were charitable institutions which had $9,787,297 approved of the $12,812,013 asked, and penal institutions under direction of the board of administrations which asked for $2,265,180 and had $2,154,276 approved. Daily Kansan Selects Ten Top News Stories of 1944 Now that 1944 is drawing to a close, students looking back can see that much has happened at the University during this year. The University Daily Kansan has selected the following ten news stories as the most important on the campus during the last year. Approximately 800 A.S.T.P. trainees left the campus on March 22. The final military review and parade with drums and bugles was impressive, but those who knew anyone in the ranks realized the true meaning of those overseas caps when the men marched to their train at dusk. White School of Journalism Army Trainees Leave Campus William Allen White, University of Kansas student from 1886 to 1890, and editor of the Emporia Gazette, died Jan. 29. A group of newspapermen took preliminary steps to establish and finance a William Allen White memorial foundation to encourage better journalism in Kansas. In addition they asked the state legislature and board of regents to authorize construction of a new journalism building on the campus. On June 9, the Kansas state board of regents designated the University's department of journalism as the William Allen White School of Journalism. 'Sour Owl' Steals a Few Scenes The Sour Owl, college "humor" magazine, which was sponsored this fall by the All Student Council, was barred from the mails on the basis that it contained obscene literature. Climaxing the controversy, Deane W. Malott, chancellor, announced that no staff member listed on the magazine's title page could participate in any further activity or hold any office, or employment, in any student activity or department of the University. The Office of Dean of Student Affairs was created, with Henry Werner acting as adviser and assistant in all student activities. Kaw River Comes Up teered to help fight back the rising water. Towns were isolated; mail was delayed; and much property was destroyed or damaged in the flood.

There was official announcement of the enemy withdrawal in the Echternach area, as General Fatton's Third army battered deeply into the southern flank of the Nazi pocket along a 35-mile front. At least seven towns were recaptured. A front-line dispatch from Belgium said the Nazis were retreating in a disorganized manner. Enemy troops were said to be frantically trying to swim the icy Sure river to escape. Enemy Patrol Active in North Allied headquarters revealed that the Nazis had failed to make any appreciable gain in the last 48 hours. Patrol activities by the enemy highlighted the action on the northern end of the western front, as well as against the U. S. Seventh army. In Italy troops of the U.S. Fifth army mauled Nazi armored columns and forced the Germans to break off their attack. The British Eighth army and the Canadians cleared the enemy from several strong points and crushed a German attempt to infiltrate across the Senio river. Yanks Control Mindoro The Red army smashed its way toward Austria, after reaching Tata, 93 miles from Vienna. The British radio said the Yanks were in complete control of Mindoro island in the Philippines. Paris — (INS) — Two hundred American soldiers including two officers were being held by military authorities on charges of making $200,000 from illegal sales of cigarettes in Paris, headquarters disclosed today. The cigarettes were allegedly sold for $2 a pack. American airmen for the third successive time blasted the Japanese airdrome at Clark field near Manila. Soldiers Held for Theft Illegal Sale of Cigarets The men obtained the cigarettes by throwing burning gasoline on a freight car causing a "hot box" at the journals of the wheels. When the car was shunted to a siding for repacking the soldiers carted away the cigarettes.

The next meet meeting will be held at 4:30 Tuesday, at the Winkles nurses' home. All those interested in nursing are invited. TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Plan Suggested For Revamping Of Congress One of the main issues for debate at the opening of the 79th congress in January, probably will be the advisability of revamping the organization of the entire legislative body. Sen. Sam Rayburn of Texas gave the move its biggest impetus by signaling the house rules committee to consider a senate-approved streamlining bill. At the same time, proposals for a modernization of congress were made in a report by the house committee to investigate executive agencies. Many other changes also have been suggested by critics who state that the executive power can not be checked unless congress too, modernizes and expands. Among the outstanding proposals which undoubtedly will be considered in the 79th congress are the fourfold program of the committee report, the increased salary issue, "rider" bills, and staff assistance. The fourfold committee program included creation of a joint legislative staff service to supply technical information to congressmen; a joint appropriations committee to investigate expenditures; a joint committee to investigate the practices of executive agencies; and a committee to study congress and recommend even more improvements. John W. McCormack of Massachusetts, house majority leader, indicated his support of congressmen who advocate a pay raise for themselves. McCormack suggested voting for an increase in the present $10,000 salary to offset increased living costs. He also favored making expenses of congress members' Washington living quarters tax-deductible. Sensor Andrews of Florida wants to stop the use of "rider" amendments, which would never pass on their own merits but are tacked on to important bills. Those who ridicule house and senate members want a solution to what they consider a dire need for good men with more information. With the realization of the need for these changes in order that congress may keep up with the White House, the nation, soon will witness a major change in its governing legislative body.—J.V. It has been pointed out that congress never has been willing to vote itself an adequate staff, being satisfied to allocate only $20,000,000 a year for all costs, including the salaries of all workers hired by the 551 members.

Only Total Sell-Out Promises Success For Early New Year's Eve Party The grand climax of this year's social events will take place tomorrow night in the Union ballroom, when University students will usher out the old year and usher in the new—one day early. Because New Year's eve comes on Sunday night this year, K.U. students will "jump the gun" on the rest of the world, by celebrating on Dec. 30, and will no doubt be sleeping peacefully one the actual eve of the new year when everyone else is celebrating. According to Jane Atwood, social chairman of the Student Union, and Eugenia Hepworth, president, the party is a complete sell-out and promises to be a gala celebration. Herbert price and his orchestra from Kansas City will play for the formal dance from 9 p.m. until 12 midnight. The ballroom, which has not been in use since the beginning of the Navy V-12 program, will take on a night club atmosphere and students will be seated at individual tables about the dance floor. All tables are reserved and refreshments and confetti will be furnished to those attending. Cara J. Black Weds R.W.Taft Miss Cara Jean Black, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Black of Lawrence, and Robert W. Taft, Jr., son of Dr. and Mrs. R. W. Taft, also of Lawrence, were married in a ceremony performed at 4 o'clock Saturday at Plymouth Congregational church. The Rev. C. Fosberg Hughes affiliated. Baskets of gladioli and snapdragons in pastel shades, with candelabra, palms and greenery, decorated the church. The bride, given in marriage by her father, wore a white slipper satin gown, fashioned with a round net yoke, high neckline, net ruffle at the wrist, and fitted bodice; the skirt falling into an aisle-wide train. She carried an orchid shower bouquet on a white prayer book. Mary Olive Marshall and Mira Jean Slusso, both College seniors, attended Miss Black as bridesmaids. Calvert Winter attended the bridegroom as best man. The ushers were Leo Lemmerman, Jim Black, brother of the bride; Kenneth Hoffman and Fletcher McCord, assistant professor of psychology at the University.

Return of Veterans May Relieve Colleges Of Dearth of Men An estimated post-war flow of 650 thousand veterans to college campuses for federally-financed studies "represents the chief hope of American colleges and universities for rescue from the present dearth of men students," Dr. Raymond Walters, nationally recognized college statician, reported in his 25th survey for School and Society, education weekly. Miss Guenther is a freshman in the College. Mr. Stenion is in the submarine service and is stationed at New London, Conn. Omar W. Clark, assistant administrator of the Veterans' administration, Washington, contributed to the report, declaring the peak load for colleges and universities will probably come a year and a year and a half after Germany's and Japan's defeats. Approximately 2,400 disabled veterans are currently studying in colleges and universities. There are between 40 and 50 veterans now enrolled at the University. Dr. Leonard Axe is director of the veteran's bureau here. Slightly more than 60 per cent of the current collegiate population are women, Dr. Walters said. K. U. Players Direct Program Everett Hill and Norman Carlson, basketball squad members, were in charge of the recreational program for junior and senior high school boys at the Community building Tuesday. Dr. F. C. Allen, chairman of the department of physical education, is director of the program which is sponsored by the Lawrence Recreational coopitl.

New Profession for Women Begun By Call for Medical Technologists Medical Technology, a course for women combining college and professional training, is being emphasized by the University because of an increased demand for medical technologists Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, has announced. The new profession has gained importance during recent years because of the increased dependence of medical science on technical laboratory work and because women have proved themselves peculiarly capable in the performance of this work. The trend toward making medical services available to more people, both through private and public medicine, has enormously increased the demand for well-trained medical technicians. Many doctors employ them in their own private laboratories. Large numbers of clinics, operated by small groups of doctors, have laboratories staffed by women technicians. There is a great demand for them in the hospitals of the armed forces. They are a necessity in the laboratories of state boards of health and in public health service laboratories. Many industries now maintain their own medical laboratories which must have well-trained technicians, and many technicians are employed in institutions devoted primarily to medical research. Demand for Technicians Is Great For some time the University has had a greater demand for medical technologists than it has been able to fleet, and now both the war and the increased demand for greater health services in the postwar period call upon us to increase the number of medical technicians as much as possible. With this aim in view, the University is emphasizing this curriculum which has a strong appeal to young women who wish to engage in a profession that has both a scientific and humanitarian appeal. Technicians Major in Postcollege The five-year course is designed to produce technicians of the highest quality who are capable of performing the most technical work in the most exacting institutions. At the same time it furnished these technicians with a college course which places them in the ranks of widely trained people. During these years the student takes a regular four-year college course with a major in bacteriology. In the first year she takes English composition, English literature, for- Let us suggest that you serve FRITZEL'S Delicious EGG-NOG $ 5 5^{\circ} \mathrm{C} $ For your holiday parties and get-togethers It is non-alcoholic and ready to serve per quart Fritzel DAIRY PRODUCTS FOR HEALTH Fifth Year Spent in Hospital Phone 1280 eign languages, chemistry, and mathematics. In the second year chemistry is continued, and courses in the social sciences and zoology are added. In the third year, the student specializes heavily in bacteriology, and takes supporting courses in chemistry, botany, zoology, and entomology. In the fourth year, there is continued emphasis on bacteriology, and the student elects courses in the social sciences or in other desirable subjects. On completion of this four-year course, the student is granted the degree of bachelor of arts, the standard and honored degree of liberal arts and sciences. Stimson Places No Blame Regarding German Attack During the fifth year the student spends eight hours each day in the University Hospitals' laboratories and engages in technical work under the supervision of doctors and trained technicians. On satisfactory conclusion of the year's work at the University Hospitals, the student receives a certificate in medical technology. 546 Miss. St. Washington—(INS)—Secretary of War Stimson declared yesterday that it is "too early" to pass judgment on whether any individual or group would be censured for the German breakthrough on the Western front. Time is now working against the Nazis and the Allied news is now favorable, Stimson said.

Also among the number one contests of the day will be the East-West game in San Francisco. In the Orange bowl, it will be a return engagement for Tulsa and Georgia Tech. The Miami backers are the only ones ever to schedule the same combination twice in a row. Tulsa and Georgia Tech were both beaten twice this season. Aggies in Dallas At Dallas, the Oklahoma Aggies were the first to arrive yesterday for pre-game workouts in the Cotton bowl. The Aggies were beaten only once, by the Norman, Oklahoma Navy Zoomers. The Cotton bowl officials point to yardage figures to support their contention that the day's stars will be playing in Dallas. Both Tennessee and Southern California have lost one game and tied one in the regular season. The Trojans were tied by U.C.L.A., but in a return game defeated the Bruins. Tennessee is rated by the experts as "untried" and usually predicted less powerful than their Rose bowl opponents. Keskeris to Be in Frisco Game Reskerns to be in Pfisco Clark In the Sugar bowl, George Clark, Duke running back, is expected to star. The records show long runs by him in Duke's games against Wake Forest, North Carolina Pre-flight, and Georgia Tech. Missouri's Jim Keckeris, the secret weapon in the Missouri-Kansas game, is expected to count heavily for the East in the San Francisco game. Three other bowl games, the Oil bowl at Houston, Texas, the Iron bowl at Birmingham, Ala., and the Sun bowl at El Paso, Texas, will round out the New Year's day program. NAZI ARTICLES--- (continued from page one) One of the jurist's caps is entirely black, and the other has a simple decoration of white braid around the top and bottom. Prof. W. L.

According to Major Immel, former secretary to ex-Governor Payne Ratner, German courts contain no reference books. The accused is dealt with according to the administrator's memory.

U. sports fans for their loyal cooperation during the past 12 trying months of war-time athletics, and to announce that next Monday's Kanan sport page (and all lothers this semester) will be edited by Jim Mordy, new Kanan sport seditor. It is probably fitting to conclude our term with a forecast or two, smiling over the thought that we do not have to explain our way out of the results! And logically enough, that forecast concerns the five major bowl games to be played on New Year's day. So...we're off! The Oklahoma A. & M. T. C. U. Cotton Bowl battle seems to be the most one-sided of the frays. Having seen the Horned Frogs in action early this season, and having watched a fine Oklahoma eleven perform that was overwhelmed by the powerful Cowboy team, we will certainly string along with the Aggies from Oklahoma on this one... Another easy one appears to be an East victory in the annual Shrine bowl game in San Francisco. The eastern squad is dotted with more stars than there are in the Milky Way, and should have little trouble overpowering the smaller West team... The world famous Rose Bowl contest looms as a shoo-in for the Southern California Trojans as time draws ever shorter. The Southern Cal.-Tennessee fray may turn into one of the best of New Year's day battles, but the Vols really haven't been severely tested this year. We cannot forget that the Trojans never have been beaten in a Rose Bowl affair. The Orange Bowl battle between Tulsa and Duke is the first potential toss-up on the schedule. The Golden Hurricanes are at present on the short end of the betting odds, and though the Engineers are at their best in post season games, we will cast our lot with the Tulsans, probably on their superior offensive play. Our final selection is even more difficult than we had thought at first. The Duke-Alabama fray is truly a toss-up in every sense of the word. Any choice in the winner of this contest will probably be based on personal preference, and our hopes have always ridden with the Crimson Tide. By the way did any one notice that two of the bowl teams were K. U. opponents early in the season? We are speaking of Texas Christian and Tulsa. Incidentally, the Jayhawkers played undoubtedly their best two games of the season against these elevens. The 7-0 victory which the Horned Frogs eked out at Saturday night in Kansas City would give the Jayhawks credit for being a powerful early se son eleven... tables, a large platform which can be used for dancing, and a building in which a juke box can be set up and chairs stored, and a dance pavilion. a powerful early season. "Phog" Allen is both elated and disgusted with the performances of his young Jayhawkers in nightly basketball practices. When the lads are playing in intra-squad games, they perform like seasoned veterans, committing very few blunders of any sort. But put them on a court, and they run over the boards like a bunch of junior high lads. All that keeps the Hawks from becoming a championship team this winter, then is inexperience. It isn't the caliber of the men, but their sudden shifting to a league in which they never have played before. But Allen still looks into the future with the same pessimism that he has shown on almost every occasion this season. If only for the books, here is our prediction as to how the Big Six will be stacked when the fireworks cease this March: Oklahoma to win 8; Iowa State—6; Kansas and Missouri—5 each; Kansas State—4; and Nebraska—2. Take it or leave it, there it is... Although it was not strictly a campus event D-Day was an important day at K, U. On June 6 the Allies landed on the Normandy beach of France.

Ames, Iowa, Dec. 29—Following a two-day layoff, the Iowa State College Cyclones reported back for a hard work-out last night, in preparation for Iowa pre-flight. The Seahawks come to Ames tonight for the return tilt of a two-game series. Four civilians, Orlyn Feuerbach, Bob Petersen, Dana Omer, and Gene Phelps have returned from the holiday vacations early to prepare for tonight's tussle. Equad members of the Navy V-12 had only a two-day lay-off over Christmas. lay on. Iowa State has won one and lost two so far this season. After opening against Minnesota with a 42-41 victory, the Cyclones lost to the Seahawks, 49 to 39, and to Drake, 42 to 35. On the other hand, pre-flight has dropped one game in eight starts and that at the hand of Wisconsin university. Even in that game, however, the Seahawks were out in front with a 5-point lead with only 6 minutes of the ball game left to play. play. No radical changes are contemplated in the Cyclone line-up for tonight's game. Coach Louis Menze will again start Myers and Feuerbach at forwards and Petersen and Block at guards. The pivot position is still a toss-up with Bill Bailey, who has started the first three games for the Cyclones, battling it out with Bob Mott and Sam Deal. During the past week, Menze has been concentrating on defensive play. It was that department of the game that broke down for the Cyclones in the last two games.
