Homma, Death March Leader, Will Be Shot
Manila, (UP)—Lt. Gen. Masaharu Homma, conqueror of Bataan and Corregard, was convicted by a U.S. military commission today of permitting his troops to commit attrocities and was sentenced to be "shot to death with musketry."
The verdict held Homma directly responsible for 80,735 killings and tortures including those on the Bataan death march and in the bombing of Manila after it was declared an open city, Dec. 26, 1941.
Homma, who speaks English fluently, listened intently as the verdict was read. Although he had wept three times when defense witnesses described him as kind-hearted and a peace-maker he showed no emotion as he heard the death sentence pronounced.
Tourist Cabin Killing Suspect Held by Police
Coffeyville, (UF)—Cotteyville police said that a single suspect was held today in the deaths of Mrs. Opal Scott, 22, and a male companion, whose bodies were found in a tourist cabin they rented Friday night.
night.
He nude bodies of Mrs. Scott 22-year-old wife of an overseas soldier and Carl Benning, also 22, were found Saturday in their oneroom-with-shower cabin. Police said their heads had been battered merclessly with a dull instrument, probably a hammer.
probably a handler.
Gamble told reporters that the killer probably had been driven by jealousy when he found the two together. Gamble said Mrs. Scott, the mother of three children, had been dating Benning since his discharge from the army last fall.
Washington, (UP) — Winston Churchill, Britain's great wartime leader, has a headache today but does not attribute it to the 99-minute talk he had with President Truman Sunday.
Rough air south of Richmond, Va.
tossed the honorable Winston, enroute here by plane, out of his seat and inflicted a bump on the Briton's head.
Southern Filibuster Beats 'Fair Work' Bill
Washington. (UP) — Throbbing senatorial ears got soothing relief today as the senate began a two-day recess after listening for more than three weeks to a southern Democratic filibuster.
The Fair Employment Practices bill, target for the southern talkfest, was dead and the senators took the brief vacation because many Republicans were out of town to make Lincoln day speeches.
Stassen To Speak Here March 18
Harold Stassen, ex-governor of Minnesota and more recently a captain in the navy, will speak to an all-University convocation the morning after graduation from executive secretary and conventions chairman, revealed today.
Stassen, a delegate to the first UNO general conference in San Francisco last year, often has been mentioned as a possible Republican presidential nominee.
WEATHER
Kansas—Partly cloudy and colder today.
Cloudy tonight and Tuesday with light snow north, light rain south, beginning late tonight and increasing Tuesday. Colder northeast tonight. Lowest temperatures tonight 15 to 20 northeast and 20 to 23'e somewhere.
Union Will Offer Late Breakfasts, Sunday Meals
You can eat your pancake and have your sleep too. The Union cafeteria breakfast line is going to be open until 10 a.m. this semester.
Sunday meals are being offered too, for the first time in the history of the cafeteria. For something light on weekday noons, there will be the new snack bar which is being opened in the navy "chow hall."
"These changes have been made to accommodate the increased enrollment, and because it has been increasingly difficult for students to find a place to eat on Sunday," Miss Hermina Zipple, Union director, explained today.
The cafeteria will open at 7:30 a.m. as usual Monday through Saturday. The lunch period will begin at 11:20 a.m. instead of 11:30, and will close at 1 p.m. The weekday dinner hours, 5 to 6:30 p.m. have not been changed.
The snack bar on the floor above the lounge will be open from 11:20 to 1 Monday through Friday. If you prefer sandwiches, you may try this to avoid the rush. A hot dish, cake ice cream, coffee and milk also will be sold here.
For Sunday breakfast you will have to stagger up the hill at the unheard-of hours of 9 to 10:30. Dinner will be served from 10:30 to 1:15, and supper 5 to 6:45.
But you still can't dance in the sub-basement — space which was planned for it in connection with the proposed book store will not be ready for this semester. Fountain hours, 8:30 to 5:30, have not been changed.
Phi Beta Kappa Elects Five Seniors
Five University seniors will be initiated Feb. 28 into Fhi Beta Kappa, honorary fraternity for seniors in colleges of liberal arts and sciences, Prof. W. E. Sandellus, president of the K.U. chapter, has announced.
These students are Jean Kaufmann, Leavenworth; Mary Morrill, Hiawatha; Wendell Nickell, Smith Center; Muriel Stember, Ozawkie; and Beverly Waters, Dearborn, Mich.
Candidates are chosen three times a year from the upper 10 per cent of the senior class and once a year from graduate students who have come from other schools.
On Page 4. you'll find authoritative information on closing hours, library rules, -smoking regulations, parking procedure, what to wear on social engagements, where to get that job, and other items really important during these first few days.
For new students on the campus, the Daily Kansan today presents a round-up of information designed to make your stay here a bit less complicated.
The University chapter is the only one in Kansas, and was the first chapter established west of the Mississippi river.

"Is it a nylon line?"%
So puzzled passersby ponder as they see students waiting to enter Robinson gymnasium. It isn't a nylon line, it's enrollment day at the University. It's courses, not nylons, that students want.
D. S. Farner Is New Zoology Professor
Dr. Farner was with the naval bureau of medicine and surgery, stationed at Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Typhus commission in Washington, Florida, and Montana. He was graduated from Hammel university, St. Paul, Minn., and received his master's and doctor of philosophy degrees from the University of Wisconsin.
Dr. Donald S. Farner will begin his duties Wednesday as assistant professor in zoology and assistant curator of ornithology at the museum of natural history, Chancellor Deane W. Malott has announced.
DONALD S. FARNER
I
- To new students it is bewildering. Confusion reigns. Everywhere there are lines.
To old students, it is the familiar routine that starts each semester. It's a necessary evil, but even they gasp that enrollment never was like this before.
You enter the building, take a few steps, and Wham! There you are in the "pen," amidst all the confusion of hundreds of other students who also are taking three hours to do a 15-minute job.
At last you spot your adviser,
squeeze through the crowd, and sit down at his table. That is, you sit if there is an empty chair. If not,
you just stand until someone gets up.
Being smart, you already have outlined your schedule. You fill-out your card, hand it to your adviser, and wait. Finally he tells you that courses are closed and you must enroll in a science class to fill division two.
Ah! The door! You walk out into the fresh air. You are enrolled.
Finally, you get your course approved and enter the next pen to have another card filled out for each student. Downstairs to get your fee recorded.
What difference does it make if you have to take some course called "Animals of the Past?" You'll have to study anyway. You are glad it's over—the waiting, the standing in lines.
Several part-time jobs for men which will pay from 40 to 50 cents an hour are listed in the office of student affairs, Dean Werner announced today.
The list includes laboratory assistant, grocery store clerk, stenographer, theater usher, library job, houseboy, furnace attendant, soda fountain clerk, janitor, table waiter, and window cleaner.
Dean Werner Has Jobs for Men
Es seeing you in the line at the book store. Good luck!
But is it?
K. U. history is being made on the campus today, as an influx of new students, biggest in the institutions' 80-odd year life, started breaking all enrollment and registration records in sight.
Record-Breaking Spring Semester HitsK.U.Campus
It is the beginning of the first spring semester since the war ended, and the return of men to a male-starved Hill let coeds and administration officials alike know that the shooting stopped a long time ago.
This is the start of a new kind of semester for most K.U. students—one to which they have looked forward all their educational lives. It will bring the University back to as near normal procedure as it perhaps may ever get, and it will fill out the weak spots (no men, no fun) in university life more than present students have known during their Jayhawker careers.
New students—estimates of their number ran above a thousand—took psychological and aptitude examinations Friday. There were exactly 866 of them pushing pencils for the first of the tests, and officials estimated another 300 or so missed the exam.
By all predictions, there will be 5,000 or more men and women enrolled in KU. this semester. That will be the highest in the Hill's history (the previous top was about 4,600), and will represent more than a 30 per cent gain over last semester's figures.
George Sauer, K.U.'s new football coach, was among the new arrivals on the campus today.
The increase has brought problems. It's been trouble to many students to find the right place to live. There'll be more trouble ahead
(continued on page eight)
The former Nebraska All-American, brought to Kansas to pep up Jayhawker grid prospects, will name his assistants here soon, and plans to run the K.U. pigskin offensive from the "T" formation in a 10-game schedule next fall, he said.
Five non-conference foes will be played in addition to the regular five Big Six games. The Oklahoma Aggies appear on the schedule for the first time.
Grid Coach Arrives 46 Schedule Listed
The 1946 grid card offers four games in the Memorial stadium.
The Jayhawk eleven will open the season with Texas Christian university, Sept. 21, at Ruppert stadium. This game has been played in Kansas City the last two years.
The home season will open against Wichita U. Oct. 5. Last year the Jayhawkers defeated the Shockers, 12-0.
The schedule follows:
Sept. 21—Texas Christian at Kansas City
Sept. 27—Denver at Denver

Glad to Move Over
"Boy, just wait 'till things get to normal around here!" Have you ever said it? And have you ever just missed a fast train?
Normalcy? Well, it just went that way. Out the door and to the left . . in the form of student number 4.600. Students 4.601-6.604 appear from the right, and the University has just enjoyed two seconds as its old "pre-war-self."
Although this semester's final enrollment figure is still no more than the worried look on the registrar's face, it may end up in the neighborhood of 5,300. Before the war, K.U.'s record was around 4,600. Enrollment Inst semester—something more than 3,800.
Suddenly we've jumped from too few students to too many students with no inbetween. And we're all jubilant. We love the crowds and the excitement; everything's wonderful.
Things are looking up and out right now. Our prospective is good, so before we lose it in the heat of not being able to get a seat on the bleachers or standing three hours in some line, we make a resolution.
We resolve not to let anything make us forget we're glad about the University.
We're glad that it's suddenly so big.
And we're glad to put ourselves out so it can be that way.
That's speaking for the 3.000 odd of us who have been here all along. This week we don't mind crowding up at the library—and we're not going to mind all semester.
We have a hunch that the old Jayhawkers who are coming back feel the same way. They're so glad to be back, they're willing to understand, to put up with quite a bit this spring. And the new students—the over 750 of them. Well, so far they've been pretty patient.
Now only the teachers and administrators are left—and we excuse them for frothing occasionally. We excuse them because we have a feeling they're really glad about it, too.
And that makes it unanimous. No one minds waiting until the University gets another notch punched in its belt. No one cares about the little inconveniences so long as we have the largest and best student body we've ever had!
A Trick and a Half
It's not unusual for a man to decide that "something should be done about something." It's when he "does something" about it that there is cause to editorialize.
Early in the basketball season, Hilly Stong, navy student from Pasadena, Calif., decided that K.U. students should provide some half-time entertainment—maybe bleacher card tricks.
He drew the plans, consulted with Ku Ku and Jay Jane leaders, directed the numbering and arranging of cards at several Jay Jane meetings, and supervised the first card showing at the Oklahoma game.
The O.U., Jayhawk, and K.U. looked a little ragged, but Stong made plans for smoother card handling and more complicated card tricks for the Kansas State game. If the wildcat head, the tribute to Dr. Allen, and the U.S.N. for graduating navy students are indicative of future card tricks, we are looking forward to the half-time presentation Friday at the Nebraska game.D.S.
Among the objections raised against Eleanor Roosevelt's election to the U.N.O. delegation was the fact that she is too broad-minded about races and nationalities. The senate wisely decided to overlook Mrs. Roosevelt's little weakness.
Although Ann O'Hare McCormick is one of Americas' best known woman journalists, she has only four lines in Who's Who. All of which may or may not ring bells with those students who throw off the Jayhawker's make-up with two inches of minor activities.
★ Letter to the Editor
Parking Rules a Farce Welch Charges
To the Daily Kansas: The parking regulations on the campus set up by the ASC should be abolished. They are an unnecessary expense and a nuisance. What purpose are these regulations? I have heard many excuses:
"Students' cars should be registered with the college." Perhaps so, but a simple, uncomplicated registration would accomplish the same, just as many or more cars would be properly registered as are now.
★
"The present system gives those who need a car a definite place to park." This excuse is a farce. Parking permits are issued on the slightest pretense to anyone having a car. It is only a matter of who gets there and when, but sometimes needed a car because of a physical disability have been refused permits to park in a satisfactory zone on the excuse that the zone was full.
"Present regulations are necessary because there are more cars than
parking space on the campus." The present regulations actually do nothing to remedy this situation. There is only so much parking space, and it might as well be a race for who gets the space first as a race for who can finagle a permit first.
"The University needs money." This could hardly be true when you consider what one pays to attend this college.
The present regulations only add expense and confusion to both the students and the ASC. Why action to abolish them has not been taken sooner I do not know. Many members of the ASC and isst subordinateers of the ASC and its subordinating these regulations except for the fact that they might be deprived of their office.
The regulations solve no problem. They only create one. Unless the Chancellor has some pet reason for continuing this absurd system, I see no reason why it cannot be done away with immediately.

Across the grove at the Delt house, Al Chavaria grabbed his shaving equipment in a big rush before an exam one morning. After undertaking the operation (getting all lathered up) he discovered that his supposed shaving cream was tooth paste. This Ipana look can be overdone.
Tired of seeing people spring forth from classrooms, fling their books in the general direction of the Book Exchange, and cry mildly. "I'm through," we went to a boneyard to get away from it all. But the proprietor told us several people had come in to cash checks and, after endorsing them, had walked woefully out empty-handed.
generally speaking, everyone got pretty mixed up:
In conclusion we can only say that,
An unidentified Shakespearean student dragged in for the final and, taking his seat, declared, "If I don't see you, I'm sorry." For Mottar. Board next semester."
And going home after a particularly rough day, Jean Francisco, Theta pledge, made a wrong turn in Fraser, becoming hopelessly lost in the dead end of the wing. They led her out.

(This is another in a series of articles by the Daily Kansas to acquaint the campus with the various organized houses, their members, officers, and histories.)
"For she's the sweetheart of Sigma Chi." Strains of this famous fraternity song can be heard each spring when members of Sigma Chi choose their "sweetheart" at the annual spring formal dance.
Another spring party is the much less formal Rough Johnson costume party.
The local chapter, Alpha Xi, was founded at the University May 22, 1884, with eight charter members.
1883, with eight Temporarily located at 1245 West Campus, the fraternity will move back into its chapter house at 1439 Tennessee, next fall when the house is released by the navy.
Alpha Xi was the first chapter of any fraternity in America to have a housemother. Mrs. E. H. Sutter is the present housemother.

RESEARCH AND ENGINEERING KEEP GENERAL ELECTRIC YEARS AHEAD
WASHINGTON
"ON TEST" AT GENERAL ELECTRIC
EACH year General Electric selects engineering college graduates and assigns them to the Testing Department. There they obtain a broad experience with a variety of apparatus and broad training in classroom and factory—to equip them for research, development, application, and manufacturing in the engineering field of their choice.
Upon being assigned to one of the Test sections, the new Test man assists others in testing equipment, and as he gains experience, he assumes more responsibility.

Here's 'Inside Information' For All The New Students
She Has a System To Help Your Studying at K.U.
Whether you are working for an A.B., B.S., or an MRS., it is inevitable that you will have to do some of this stuff called studying. After being at K.U. for a semester, here are my suggestions.
By LORNA RINK (Who's a Freshman, Too)
Gather everything together that you will need so you won't have to jump up every two minutes to find something. Have a dictionary handy to look up doubtful words. Even though you may think so, a nostrum is not what a speaker stands on, impunity has nothing to do with being puny, and an optimum society is not composed of good-humored and optimistic people.
Burn out a tube in your radio and forget to have it fixed. Have a chair comfortable enough for sitting but not for sleeping. Never, under any circumstances, face the bed while studying. It is destructive to morale. Remove all objects, especially mirrors, out of reaching distance. In extreme cases, turn the dresser toward the wall.
Destroy time wasters. A big time consumer are those chats with the person down the hall. Discourage the person down the hall from dropping in on yon. If necessary, buy a padlock. If you have a roommate, I believe friction tape is still on the market.
Read everything twice, first for the general idea and then for outlining. Your outline will be briefer and clearer. Learn new terms thoroughly before spouting them off to colleagues to impress them with your intelligence.
Reason things out. The primary purpose of the head is not growing hair, even though it is the best function of some. From childhood, we have accepting opinions of parents, teachers, and other adults without question. For instance, politics. My father is a Republican, so I am too. My doctor almost got his finger bitten off because he called me a Democrat while he was taking out my tonsils.
Don't form an unshakeable opinion from the first article you read on a subject. Remember the author was a human being and he probably needed the proceeds to buy his kiddie a new pair of shoes.
I don't mean for you to consume every work in every book. I detest bookworms. They make me realize how stupid I really am. But your studying time can be cut a third, perhaps a half, if you study without interruptions. Plan for better and shorter hours and more of the thinker and less of the parrot.
Need a Tux?
This Is Yours
If You Fit It
A good tuxedo—and it's all for free!
The complete suit is to be given to some student it will fit, Dean Henry Werner said today.
The tuxedo was given to the University by a woman who wishes to keep her identity unknown, Dean Werner said. The person to whom the suit is given must use it himself, since it was given to the University on condition that it not be sold.
Students interested may call at the office of student affairs to see the suit, Dean Werner said.
An exhibit of Kansas pottery is on display in the main hall of Thayer museum, Mrs. Mary Warner, curator, said today.
Pottery On Display In Thayer Museum
The pieces are all made of Kansas clay by University students and teachers, she said. The pottery will be shown through February.
By REBECCA VALLETTE (Daily Kansan Staff Writer)
Today is "question day" for new students, and here is the "answer sheet" for all those problems that are puzzling you.
Where do you live? What do you wear? When should you get in at night? Where can you smoke? What about a car on the campus? Want to work? What are the library rules? What about relaxation?
The answers to them all are here, conveniently indexed and outlined, especially for the many new students on the campus. The information here has been checked with University authorities for accuracy.
If you have any further questions, call K.U. 25, the Daily Kansan office, ask for Information Service, and a reporter will help you.
A problem which concerns women more than men is what to wear. Skirts and sweaters, and saddle shoes are most popular for campus wear. In fact, this uniform will take you to Midweeks, Wednesday Union dances; to basketball games; to meetings; and on lots of dates. For special concerts and Varsity dances, you wear heels, hose, and dresses. Come Saturday don your oldest pair of blue jeans and loudest plaid shirt.
HOUSING
If you're looking for a place to live, go to the newly organized Central Housing office in 220 Frank Strong hall. There you can talk to Irvin Youngberg, director, who will tell you what rooms are available.
CLOSING HOURS
CLOTHES
Take notice of K.U.'s closing hours for women. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights, 10:30 p.m.; Sunday nights, 11 p.m.; Friday and Saturday, 12:30. Closing hours on nights preceding holidays, preceding vacation periods, and during vacation periods, during registration and enrollment, and Commencement, and on night vacations end are at 12 pm. These times are official from the Adviser of Women's Office.
All Student Council is strict about smoking regulations, so better watch where you light up. Smoking in University buildings is restricted to the press rooms of the Journalism building, first floor hall of Green hall, basement hall of Frank Strong hall, first floor hall of the Hydraulic laboratory, and the lobby of Snow hall.
SMOKING RULES
Lots of students earn while they learn at the University. If you are a man and want to work, see Dean Werner. If you are a woman, go to the Women's Employment Bureau in 121 Frank Strong hall. Wages on the hourly rate for most jobs vary from 35 cents an hour up.
The Union is not included in this ban.
Driving a car to college is quite a problem, as you can't park on the campus without a permit. You apply for these licenses in Dean Henry Werner's office, 228 Frank Strong hall. They are issued for reasons of employeessponsibility, andability, and residence from the campus. After the permits are approved, they may be obtained at the Business office.
PARKING RULES
About the library—Hours are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, and Friday. 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.; Saturday. 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
In order to check out books you must show either your activity book or registrar's receipt as identification.
Reserve books may be checked out an hour before the library closes, and must be returned by 8:45 the next morning. There is a 2-cent-a-day fine on other books. On reserve
JOBS
LIBRARY
books there is a 25-cent fine for each hour, the book is overdue.
If you want to read the hometown newspaper, you'll find it in the periodical room.
SOCIAL LIFE
Then if you don't want to study all the time, there are lots of fun carties every week-end. You can have as little or as much social life as you want at K.U.
ORGANIZATIONS
Whatever your interest—singing, dramatics, engineering, business, or any other—you'll find lots of companions in Hill organizations. For a complete list, look on page 19 of the Student Directory.
UNION
For loafing, snoozing, relaxing, eating, dancing—go to the Union. In the sub-basement you'll find the soda fountain, where fudge sandaes and bridge games are popular. Offices there include the book exchange, Independents office, Jayhawker office, Union Activities, and others.
The cafeteria, which is open every day, is on the next floor. Easy chairs, radio, ping pong tables, and the Music room are on the first floor. On the third floor is the Kansas room, scene of many private parties; the Fine room, used chiefly for meetings; and the English room, used for teas and private parties.

Students May Relax in Restful Union
The living room of the home is furnished with a large screen, comfortable chairs and a fireplace. The walls are made of dark wood with exposed beams and large windows that allow natural light to fill the space. There are also several shelves on the walls containing decorative items such as plants, framed pictures, and small vases.
When day's work is done (and sometimes a wee bit before), the restful and relaxing quarters of the Memorial Union call the K.U. student for a few moments. Pictured here is the Union's English room, with spacious fireplace. The gift of a graduating class, the English room is one of a score of "nooks and corners" into which Jayhawkers may hide themselves for contented contemplation.

Cage Attendance Nears Home Record
The 1946 edition of the Jayhawker quintet is heading for a home attendance record in Hoch auditorium.
Although the auditorium can seat 3,500 spectators, this mark has ready been topped once this season by the 4,200 customers who arrived into the arena to see Kansas win a 35-52 victory from Oklahoma.
At least 1,500 fans were turned away and an estimated 7,500 could have seen the game with available eating or standing arrangements.
More than 13,000 customers have been drawn for the six home games date. This average of 3,000 persons a game is only 45 under the H-time high established in 1942.
113,000 May See Conn-Louis Fight
New York (UP)—Construction of facilities for packing up to 113 thousand fans into Yankee stadium began today in promoter Mike Jacob's number mill, less than 24 hours after the announcement that Joe Louis and Billy Conn would battle for the heavyweight title at the ball park next June 19.
Lumberman Jacobs lost no time in getting crews of workmen into action building portable ramps which will be used not only at Tankee stadium, but at the polo grounds for three outdoor title rights there and at Los Angles. Plans are in the making to stage an outdoor championship bout there next winter, probably at the huge Olympic stadium where the 1932 Olympic games were held.
"Uncle Mike" said he had 65 thousand seats in a warehouse in New Jersey and that he would try to get as many of them into Yankee stadium as possible for the fight. He estimated that about 40 thousand portable seats could be used in addition to the 73 thousand grandstand and bleacher seats.
The blue- ribbon heavyweight bout, most ballyhooed sports event in history, will be held just five years and a day after the first memorable brawl between the antagonists on June 18, 1941. In that bout Pittsburgh Billy, the challenger, was ahead on points until the 13th round when he lost his emotional control and started to slug wildly. Louis knocked him out.
The war prevented a return bout until this year. Both went into the army where they gave boxing exhibitions and made personal appearance tours for more than three years.
Ray Evans Returns, But Loss of Six First Stringers Riddles K.U. Quintet
Six first-stringers have left the Jayhawker quintet as a result of semester changes.
Gib Stramel, the husky V-12 from Hays, reported to Great Lakes Friday and donned togs for sea duty
man in the Big Six circle, he averaged 13.3 points a game in conference play. His high mark was a 25 - point score against the Olathe Clippers early in the season. As a right-hand push shot artist, he was known throughout the conference.
Gus Daum, who received his navy discharge early this year, will serve as a junior engineer in Topeka next
semester, and will return to the campus next fall to complete requirements for his degree.
The 200 - pound ex-sailor, who was a reserve letterman from last year, was a hard driver in the starting guard slot during the non-conference season.

Dean Corder, who came up from last year's reserves to play quarterback this winter, was graduated, a n d is scheduled to receive commission next week.

The only replacement for the team seen now is Ray Evans, guard on the Iron Five in 1943. He was to enroll today as a second semester junior.
Ray Evans, Big Six guard in 1943,
started practice with the team last
week after service in the army air
corps since March, 1943.
Evans will enroll today for the second semester as a junior and will be eligible for the final four games in Kansas Big Six conference schedule.
Before leaving for the army, Evans was the leading guard of the Iron Five. He was placed on the United
Press and Associated Press All-Blg Six teams. AP also placed Evans on the All-Stur Gazers along with Gerdaler Tucker of Oklahoma.
Evans has been playing basketball with the Denver Ambrose team in the American league the past few weeks.
In practice here, Evans and Wendell Clark were at guards, Otto Schnellbacher and Charlie Black, the other two members of the Iron Five, at forwards, and George Gear, at center. This probably will be the starting line-up for most of the remaining games on the Kansas schedule.
Spaulding Added To Sociology Staff
Dr. Albert C. Spaulding, Missoula, Mont, has been appointed instructor in sociology and assistant curator of anthropology at the University.
A graduate of the University of Montana, Dr. Spaulding received his master's degree in anthropology from the University of Michigan and his doctor of philosophy degree from Columbia university. During the war he worked with a Forest Service topographic unit engaged in mapping for the war department and the navy.

Don Cossacks Sing Here Wednesday
A
The first concert of the semester will be given by the Don Cossack chorus in Hoch auditorium at 8:20 p.m. Wednesday. Activity books will admit students.
Songs of the church, campfire and battlefield, Russian folk songs, and Cossack dancing will make up the program. Serge Jaroff is the conductor.
The chorus appeared at the University in 1932 and in 1934. This annual tour is the group's 16th in the United States.
Work,Hobby Pay Off For Mrs. Calderwood
Hobby hours are profitable ones for Mrs. Natalie Calderwood, English literature instructor, who finds that writing feature articles pays dividends. Teaching as a profession, she uses her leisure time to turn out an average of one feature a week for the book page of the Kansas City Star.
"The great books of the world are not just for experts and for reading in the classroom." Mrs. Calderwood says, "but for everybody." One of her reviews which recently appeared on the editorial page of the Kansas City Times, pointed out that adults reading "Alice in Wonderland" to their children may for the first time appreciate the witty satire hidden to them as children.
Fond of her hobby, Mrs. Calderwood also likes her profession because she believes "Young people are stimulating. And, she added, "veteran students are a challenge to the teacher because they keep us on our toes."
Mrs. Calderwood received her bachelor of arts degree at Carleton college, Northfield, Minn., where she was editor of the college paper one year. Her master's degree in English literature was from Columbia university, N.Y. Before coming to K.U. she taught at two state teachers' colleges in Minnesota, Mankato and Duluth, and also at DePauw university in Indiana.
Although teaching is her profession and writing her hobby, Mrs. Calderwood also plays the piano and pipe organ, and practices at least an hour a day.
Record-Breaking Spring Semester Hits K. U. Campus
(continued from page one)
in obtaining all necessary textbooks, now hit by a shortage.
More students will have to take Saturday classes, because regular Monday, Wednesday, Friday sections fill quickly. Some will even have 12:30 courses, although the shortage of classrooms hasn't led to many of those yet.
It's a transition semester, for sure, and it's transition with a good, hard bang, not an easy, convenient changeover.
The University teaching staff will have its hands full, too. Individual instructors will be handling more students, and administration authorities will be swamped with more paper work.
And, in case you're interested, it'll be a steady grind with the books until after mid-semesters, because the first holiday of the spring will be Easter. Perish the thought!
Guggenheim Fellows Studying on Campus
Two Guggenheim fellows, Manuel Maldonado-Koereld and Bernardo Villa-Ramirez of Mexico, are enrolled at the University for graduate work in zoology under the direction of Prof. E. Raymond Hall. Both men are completing work on their doctor of philosophy degrees.
Maldonado, who taught at the Institute of Scientific Investigation of the University of Monterrey, Nueva Leon, Mexico, has been elected president of the K.U. chapter of Fni Sigma, honorary biology fraternity.
Villa is a former teacher of zoology at the National Preparatory school at the University of Mexico, who served in the biological institute there.
Guggenheim Fellowships are granted annually to from 40 to 60 persons of high intellectual and personal qualifications by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial foundation which provides funds and administers the fellowships.
The foundation purposes are to bring about improvements in education and in the practices of the arts and professions in the United States, to encourage and support research, and to help bring about better international understanding.
Jerald Hamilton, College sophomore from Wichita, will accompany the 250-voice chorus in rehearsal until April when the 80-piece symphony orchestra will be used, Dean Swarthout said. The chorus is composed of the Men's and Women's Glee clubs and the A Capella choir. Four soloists will be selected later.
Memorial Service Rehearsals Begin
Rehearsals for Verdi's "Mazon Requiem," to be presented May 5 as an all-University memorial to K.U. war dead have begun. D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, announced today.
Gov. Andrew Schoepell will be invited to participate in this program, which will open the University's music week activities. Chancellor Deane W. Malott will also take part.
"More male voices are needed," Dean Swarthout said.
80 Men Move Into Thayer, But They're Really Not Museum Pieces
Invitations will be sent to the families of the men and women honored, to the Board of Regents, and to the presidents of other state schools.
A gold-star flag will be unfurled at that time in honor of the University's war dead.
Pi Phi announces Pledging
Pi Beta Phi has announced the pledging of Barbara Hume, Kansas City.
About 80 men are moving into Thayer museum, but they are far from becoming museum pieces.
All GT's but one—he's an exchange student from Central America—they can feel at home in quarters on the lower floor, which is divided into a study hall and a dormitory with double bunks and locker space.
Rooms in Robinson gymnasium and the stadium also are being converted into living quarters for men, but will be used only in case of emergency, Irvin Youngberg, housing director, said. These two buildings with Thayer will house 140 men, he added.
Married veterans looking for apartments can still get them at Sunflower Village, where there still are vacancies. Mr. Youngberg said.
Several hundred new students will live in emergency housing centers recently provided by the University.
These include University-owned houses which have been converted into women's dormitories.
"The University has not turned away a single student so far because of lack of housing, and we hope to keep up that record," Mr. Youngberg said.
Plans for-handling an expected enrollment of more than 6000 in September include space for about 100 men in quarters behind the gymnasium, and erection of 110 defountable houses on or near the campus.

At least 200 more men students will have beds this semester, thanks o the navy!
The beds and bedding were released to the University last week, and will be used to furnish the basement of Thayer museum, now being into a men's dormitory, Raymond Nichols, executive secretary said.
The naval contract provides that all equipment, which included study lamps, textbooks, and tables, not returned at the end of this semester must be returned by June.

Argentina Aided Axis, U.S. Charges
Washington, (UP) —America's troubled relations with Argentina hurtled toward a showdown today as the state department unleashed an unprecedented attack on the totalitarian policies of the Argentine military regime.
In a blistering 32,000-word "blue book" indictment, the department charged Argentina with violating her wartime neutrality by giving "positive aid" to the axis and by even now giving nazis a western hemisphere base for building a new war machine.
The statement, tacitly urged the Argentine people to oust the Peron-Farrell regime and its "terrorist methods."
Secretary of State James F. Byrnes said the United States planned no further action until it had a chance to discuss its charges with the other American republics.
He indicated that endorsement of the U.S. indictment might lead to a hemispheric move to expel Argentina from the United Nations or to subject her to a hemisphere-wide diplomatic quarantine.
Chicago, (UP) —Ice skating star Sonja Henie today was granted a divorce from New York millionaire sportsman Dan Topping on charges of desertion.
Ickes Resigns, Warns Of Huge Oil Scandal
Washington, (U.P) —President Truman today accepted the resignation of Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes, who left the cabinet with a warning against the kind of political pressure which produced the Teapot Dome oil scandal.
Ickes' resignation, ending nearly 13 years in the same post, will be effective Friday. Assistant Secretary of Interior Oscar L. Chapman will succeed Ickes until Mr. Trumman picks a permanent successor.
Ickes said the former Democratic national treasurer tried to get him to drop a suit for federal title to oil-rich tidelands by holding out the promise of Democratic campaign contributions by oil men.
Detailing his recent public battle against Edwin W, Pauley, California oil man nominated by President Truman to be Undersecretary of Navy, Ickes declared that his department had been subjected to political pressure.
Pauley denied the charge. At a news conference on Feb. 7 President Truman, supporting his nominee, said Ickes might well have been mistaken. The Pauley nomination is headed into a finish battle in the senate, with the outcome highly uncertain.
Strike Situation Eases Over Nation
The strike situation in three major American cities looked brighter today. In Pittsburgh, Pa., an independent utilities workers union called off its 20-hour strike.
(By United Press)
In Philadelphia, trolleys, buses, subway and elevated trains rolled today for the first time in 48 hours after CIO transport workers accepted a 12-cent an hour wage increase.

Hepworth Is New ASC President
Eugenia Hepworth, College senior, will assume duties as president of the All-Student Council at the first meeting of the semester Tuesday night, she said today.
She automatically succeeds Mrs Mary Jo Cox Youngblood, who was president during the past semester, and who will not return to school. The office of vice-president will be filled by the Council, Miss Hepworth said.
Kansas—Mostly cloudy, light snow and colder east half today. Partly cloudy tonight except cloudy with light snow extreme southeast early tonight. Colder southeast. Low tonight.15-20. Tomorrow partly cloudy and warmer.
WEATHER
Leonard Brown and Cecil Langford, Pachacamac representatives, and Dean Corder, P.S.G.L. representative, all from district 2 are leaving with the V-12 unit, and will have to be replaced, Miss Hepworth added. Other vacancies have been left by Shirley Corlett, WIGS representative from district 1, Council smoking chairman, and Jean Templeton, Independent representative from district 3, elections chairman.
All-Student Council Bill Number
2, Chapter 6, Tenure of Office, states
that:
"In event the president of the All-Student Council should fail to return to school or shall in any way become ineligible, the vice-president shall assume the office of president, and the office of vice-president shall be declared vacant and be filled by the All-Student Council.
"The vice-president shall be elected by the All-Student Council from among elected members from the several districts. The position which the vice-president represented on the Council shall be filled by the party which the president shall have represented unless the president shall have belonged to no political party in which case the Council as a whole shall fill the vacancy."

That's the most apt description a coed could muster today when she saw big, suave George Sauer, K.U.'s new football mentor.
The tweedy, handsome ex-lieutenant commander walked into Robinson gym m Monday and is now a integral part of the physical education set-up.
Family and football are Sauer's favorite topics of conversation, "and they always be tied for top honors because I love them both," he added.
The little Sauer is bracer is really smooth. "just like her mother," he grinned.
Business-like in manner, the new coach announced that spring football practice would get underway, March 11.
"With four 1945 bowl teams on next year's schedule, I'm not making any predictions," he said cautiously, but the former Nebraska threat has some winning "T" blueprints up his sleeve.

Your University Daily Kansan,
published daily Monday through
Friday, will be available every day
at 3:15 p.m. in distribution boxes
in front of the library, inside the
door of the library, near the center
door of Frank Strong hall, and in
the Union.
The figures today were more than a third above last fall's enrollment. Many departments broke records—the School of Engineering and Architecture was typical, with 947 students now, compared with a previous top of 71.
Laurence Woodruff, the registrar,
thought this would rise above 2,000.
A housing shortage feared during January has failed to develop, administration officials declared. All students have rooms, and there's space for 100 more persons within existing emergency housing facilities.
We Are Available At 3:15 Daily
Representatives for organized houses may obtain copies for their members at the Daily Kansan business office, in the basement of the Journalism building.

We're happy to have a "suburb" to the campus these days, and that's the reason for Sun Snots.
Sun Spots is a brand-new column about our Veterans Village at Sunflower. It appears for the first time in today's Daily Kansas, but you'll see it every week hereafter.
Little George Rippie, the columnist, wields a big pen in Sun Spots. If you're living in Sunflower, or know someone there, you'll like it. See page 8.

You Can't Join YM
With the increased enrollment at the University, the question about the YMCA is raised more often. Perhaps still only every 10th man seems independently interested. But with the registration line predominantly male, the total of 10th men has ceased to be an inconsequential figure.
So the question warrants an answer. Here's what did happen to the YMCA.
First of all, in 1944 Harry O'Kane, the last of a long line of executive secretaries, some good and some bad, left. He was offered far and away more money for a top position in the USO, and, being of sound mind and body, he took it.
Without him the YM still had its own student officers and its advisory board, but as the past had proved, stripped of an executive head, the group lacked continuity and organization. There were scarcely enough men on the campus to make a YM program seem worthwhile, certainly not enough to stir the imagination of student officers who were receiving no steady stimulus from an older leader.
While the YMCA was inactive, the advisory board and the standing officers kept in touch with national headquarters and tried to hire another secretary. But as in so many other cases during the war, the right man could not be found, especially at the low salary the University was prepared to pay.
The Board is still searching for this right man. And, even though the salary remains the same, chances that they will find him are looking up.
But in the meantime, what happens to the YMCA? What do we tell the veteran, who used to go to the meetings, when he asks where to sign up?
The advisory board and the present set of officers seem to feel that the YMCA has a place on the campus. They believe its discussions attacking problems from the Christian viewpoint answer a definite need in the lives of young men who are interested in right living. They believe that the YMCA provides a valuable basis for the social life of many students, that it serves as a medium of self-expression, giving many University men an opportunity to develop their personalities and their leadership potentials to the fullest extent. Undoubtedly, the YMCA does offer these things.
Do we, then, tell the veteran that he can't join the YM? He can't join because there isn't one?
Or are there students who can rise to the occasion and start the YM now before new students who are interested fill their time with other things?
Perhaps as one member of the advisory board put it "the history of the YMCA has been the history of its leadership." And perhaps 'its leadership always has meant the executive secretary. But that does not mean that the initiative in this instance, when necessity demands, could not possibly be taken by the students themselves.
Certainly, if there are students interested in the YMCA, they'll never have a better chance to show what they can do.
The G.I. And Conscription
In the February Atlantic monthly is a provocative answer to the proponents of universal military conscription written from the G.I. point of view by a man who served as an ambulance driver beside the dogfaces in this, the bousiest of all wars. Admitting that one man cannot speak officially for the G.I. as a class, the writer, Edgar L. Jones, nevertheless presents an often-heard expression of the fighting-man's attitude toward war, the armed services, the home front, and the government's dangerous short-sightedness.
Epititled "One War Is Enough," the article is a scathing attack on American self-righteousness, narrowness, guaranteed to make any wishful-thinking, well-fed, socially amoral student squirm. It describes graphically what modern war does to American youth, and masterfully understates the soldier's amazement that the homefolks are planning the next war even as he is coming home from this one.
When the president first raised the question of universal conscription, a poll among the nation's fighters indicated that a majority of them were in favor. This Mr. Jones has explained away by saying that under the stress of the war itself, the blind hatred of war and all its associations led many men to seek relief through recrimination by wishing its hardships onto other American boys.
Given a little time back in the states, he says, these men would vote for saving the peace by peaceful methods, not for vainly trying to save peace through warlike methods that can only destroy it.
Perhaps realizing this, he speculates the advocates of conscription are rushing things so that while the atmosphere of war still surrounds us we can he propagandized into adopting universal military training.
A month ago we might have listened to Mr. Jones and let it go at that. We knew a number of G.I.'s, but not enough for a cross section poll. Today it's different. With the University flooded with returned service men, we shouldn't have to accept one man's idea of what the G.I. is thinking.
And what is he thinking? Does Mr. Jones correctly represent his attitude? Well, perhaps we don't have long to wonder. Perhaps the G.I. himself will straighten us out.—L.K.

Even the workers who supervised the torture chamber installed for this week only in Robinson gymnasium had their troubles. Ed Surface was working diligently at one of those desks toward the west end of the floor where, after coming all the way down the line, the student is told he is missing something and is sent scurrying back to do it all over again. Becoming bored with his sadistic work, Ed leaned back in his chair, and the whole works collapsed in a heap on the floor. Which just goes to show that you can't trust anybody any more.

"Oh," he gulped to the girl at the bottom of the stairs, "I thought this was where the engineers enrolled."
One new student bounded hopefully through the line at the east entrance to Robinson. Upon reaching the stairs, he took the wrong turn and headed toward the women's dressing room. In mid-flight he caught sight of the large warning sign "Women."
As the day lingered on the line of handsome young vets before Dean Ulmer's desk lengthened to formidable proportions. The co-eds acting
as guides could not bear to see this mass of masculinity go unattended, so before long everyone else in Robinson was standing up while the line before the dean's desk reclined in comfortable chairs provided by the guides.
A new student got her directions mixed and became hopelessly lost in the enrollment maze. Finally giving up, she went over to a desk to ask for instructions. "Have you been in the pen vet?" she was asked.
Marge Free, Kappa rush captain, opened her mail Monday to find a letter recommending a new student. Among other things the letter announced that the prospect "is six feet tall, weights 170 pounds, and has won letters in boxing, football, and weight lifting in high school. He is a swell fellow who is easy to live with and would make a good member of your organization."
"Why, no," she replied somewhat ruffled, "I'm from a respectable family."

Bewildered, Marge looked at the envelope again. It was addressed to "Membership Chairman, Kappa Sigma."

After 63 years, Chancellor Marvin's desk has returned to K.U.
The black walnut desk was used constantly by Chancellor Frank O. Marvin for more than 40 years. Recently the desk was returned to the University from Chicago by William C. Hoad, former student and professor of engineering; and is now in Prof. Leonard Axe's office in Frank Strong hall.
Dr. Marvin, clergyman and professor of mathematics came to the University from Meadeville, Pa. He resigned in the summer of 1883.
Chancellor Marvin died in Lawrence, July 9, 1901. The desk was given to Mr. Hoad in his will.
The donor of the desk was graduated from the University in 1898, and roamed at the Chancellor's home (now Carrhull hall) for one year. He taught civil engineering at the University.
At the 1943 commencement, Professor Hoad was awarded the alumni citation for "genuine talent as a teacher and developer of young engineers." He now lives in Ann Arbor, Mich.
Marvin hall is named for the Chancellor's son, Frank O. Marvin, who became dean of the School of Engineering and Architecture in 1893.

Read Too Slowly? Here's A Solution
If you read too slowly or don't get the meaning you should in reading, you can obtain help in both of these areas through a service offered by the University.
The Reading and Study laboratory, suspended during the war, is again offering a special non-credit course to any University students who wish to improve the effectiveness of their reading and study habits.
Most college students read too slowly and comprehend too little of what they read. Definite work on improvement in these areas results in large increases in reading effectiveness, leaders find. Before the war, the laboratory enrolled more than 100 students each semester.
The work involves two class hours each week, but there is no outside preparation. A complete diagnosis is made of all aspects of the reading and study processes of each student, and practice materials and remedial work are offered. Enrollment in the course is voluntary, but the work will continue throughout the semester.
Any students interested in the program may go to Room 18, in the basement of Fraser hall, and talk with Prof. Bert Nash or Samuel M. King. Classes started today.

Fireman, Doctor, Director, Chief--- It's Harold (Orson Welles) Ingham
How to keep out of the hospital should be no problem to Harold G. Ingham, extension division director. He has two doctors in the family, his son and his daughter's husband.
He even has been mistaken for an M.D. As head of the extension division, he has worked with the state medical society and other medical groups so often that he has learned their vocabulary. Many doctors, thinking him a member of their profession, have asked for his advice.
Mr. Ingham started his career as a hard worker in college. During his senior year he carried 19 hours of academic work the first semester and 24 hours his final term.
On occasion he has been also mistaken for a fireman. As director of the State Fire school, he attends many fireman's conventions and and keeps up with the latest fire prevention and fire fighting techniques.
"Naturally, I didn't go out for baseball, basketball, or track during these semesters as I had done before," Mr. Ingham said. "I didn't have time.
His first full-time job after graduation from college was bookkeeper for a dairy farm which specialized in sausages and other pork products.
Being meticulous almost to a fault is his hobby, say his secretaries and those who work with him. He also stresses correctness in the smallest detail which the average person would overlook, and if he has any spare time, he searches for more details which need correcting.
As director of the extension division, he has charge of the University radio station, KFKU, correspondence classes, and extension classes in Kansas City, Wichita, and Topeka. In addition, he is chairman of debate materials for the Nation! University Extension association.
Before coming to the University in 1915 as secretary of the correspondence study department, Mr Ingham worked in the extension division at the University of Wisconsin. In 1917, he was appointed acting director of the extension division
here, and in 1921 he became director.
Mr. Ingham received the bachelor of arts degree at Milton college in Wisconsin in 1909, and did graduate work at the University of Wisconsin.

'K.U.-by-Mail' Classes Make a 'Mountain'
A mountain can be moved!
A mountain of mail is exchanged each year through the University's correspondence bureau.
About a thousand of the 5,222 persons enrolled in the extension division's correspondence bureau between July 1, 1944, and June 30, 1945, were overseas students, Miss Ruth Kenney, secretary of the correspondence study bureau said.
"Students from 38 states, Alaska, Canada, Venezuela, and all places in Europe, Africa, and the Pacific where our troops have been, were taking our correspondence courses," Miss Kenney said.
Battles were hard on books. Sometimes in the rush to the front, students had to leave behind all materials except frontline equipment, and schoolbooks were among the articles missing when the men returned to
The Navy has added a few more to the multitude of new men on the campus, Sixty-seven V-5 naval aviation trainees from Ames, Iowa, moved in Saturday, Comdr. R. J. Baum, executive officer in the University Navy unit, said today.
Navy Adds 67 V-5's To Campus PT's
The men will live in the PT's and will eat in the Navy chow hall, the Union ballroom, along with the V-12 trainees. The V-5'will study regular college courses related to their field, Comdr, Baum said, and will be permitted to participate in all activities.
These men are either second or third semester students. There is no assurance that they will complete more than one semester here.
Part of K-State Trailertown Burns
Manhattan, (UP) — A large-sized trailer, housing lavatory and bathing facilities in the 100-trailer community for married ex-servicemen students at Kansas State college was destroyed by fire today.
The fire was discovered by the wife of a veteran living at the trailer site. Volunteers kept the flames from spreading through the community. The college fire fighting department extinguished the blaze.
camp. In such cases the University made replacements.
Damage was estimated at $3,000. The fire apparently was caused by an oil heating unit in the trailer.
Some navy men lost books when their ships were sunk. The biggest handicap in such instances was the delay while waiting for new books to arrive.
Correspondence enrollees include former students who are trying to accumulate a few more hours toward a degree, high school graduates who cannot come to the University and are taking a few hours in fields that will help them in their work, and high school students who lack units and are allowed to finish high school in this way.
Advantages to this system of getting an education are that a student can start his course at any time convenient for him, work at his lessons when he feels like it and has time, and can get credit for it whenever he has finished it satisfactorily, Miss Kenny said.

Manhattan, (UP) — Oklahoma's Sooners won their second conference road game in two nights against Kansas State last night, 57 to 44, to pull within a half game of first place Kansas in the Big Six standings today.
Sooners Pull Closer to Kansas
Dich Reish, gain Sooner forward, won the individual scoring honors with six field goals and two free throws for 14 points, while Dick Spaulding, Oklahoma guard, and Dave Weatherby, Kansas State forward, each dropped in 10 points.
The Sooners defeated Nebraska at Lincoln, Monday night and made their two-day northern sojourn a success by winning from K-State in the final half, to hand the Wildcats their seventh consecutive league defeat.
Weatherby's 10 points placed him six points ahead of Kansas' Charley Black in the individual conference scoring race, totaling 115 points in eight league games.
Kappa Sigma Moves Into Templin Hall
Forty Kappa Sigma fraternity members moved into Templin hall Monday. The organization plans to start serving meals in their new hall next week, Paul Rogers, Kappa Sigma sponsor, said today.
Templin hall, which was released by the navy last week, will be used by Kappa Sigma this semester, but the fraternity expects to move into its own hall for the fall semester, Mr. Rogers added. The Kappa Sigma house is still being used by the navy.
Templin hall, which housed 44 V-12 students, was turned over to the fraternity Sunday night because University officials had promised to find Kappa Sigma members a house for this semester, Mr. Rogers said.

Practically 'Going Steady'
Bloomfield, Neb. (UP) — Sgts. Reynold Erbts and Donald Balden believe they have set something of a record with their Army careers.

200 Students Enroll In Western Civilization
Two hundred students, twice the anticipated number, will begin the Western Civilization course this semester. Hilden Gibson, associate professor of sociology and political science, said today.
Students who enrolled last semester will retain their proctors in as many cases as schedules will permit. New proctors will be announced tomorrow, Mr. Gibson said.
New students will meet in Green hall at 8 p.m. tomorrow for instructions regarding the course. They are asked to call at the Western Civilization office, Fowler Shops, Friday for proctor assignment.
Those who failed to re-croll but wish to continue should see someone in the department as soon as possible, Mr. Gibson said.
Kinsley (UP)—A bond election will be held in Edwards county, April 2, to determine whether $150,-000 worth of bonds will be issued to build a hospital here.
Students continuing the course will arrange Thursday for conference schedules this semester.

SAVE MONEY
The bank will put his pennies to work. Some of these pennies almost certainly will be invested in electric utility securities. Banks prefer these securities because sound business management has made them a dependable investment—as dependable as electric service itself.
This is the American economic system; It's called capitalism. It's a good system: It helped make America great. And it will continue to open doors of opportunity for all little boys and girls with piggy banks.
NOW-it's just a penny in a piggy bank. But soon his piggy will be full. Then the pennies will be taken to a real savings bank.
Ah-a capitalist!
So, the little boy has a personal stake in the electric industry. Practically every American has millions as direct stockholders, other millions as savings bank depositors and life insurance owners;

News of Sunflower Village By GEORGE RIPPEY
. . . . . .
We don't have much money but we have a lot of fun—most of the shortage of money comes from present day prices and the allowance of the GI Bill of Rights and the fun comes mostly, at the time being, by way of charlie-horses acquired while spending a few days on bended knee with a scrub brush.
That's about the way the story starts for the 300 veterans with a yen for returning to school who are camping but across from the Ordinance works here in Sunflower Village. The distance of 15 miles from the campus is the primary disadvantage facing our group and the problem of transportation to and from school was the first to be solved.
The initial bus schedules for students at Sunflower are tentative and will be revised to fit the needs of the group according to the various class schedules.
Also, very shortly, the bus will be permitted to load and unload passengers from the Village right on the campus so that the inconvenience of commuting back and forth will be reduced to a minimum.
乐 阳 森
The Village actually is a haven for the married Vet starting to school or coming back to finish up after having his civilian veneer nicked and scratched a bit during a few years of absence in Uncle Sam's armed forces.
All ranks and branches of the services are represented in the group and it isn't uncommon to hear some of the members telling what a great improvement a bit of paint makes on the living room bulkheads.
Two months or more before this semester started, we started arriving to comb Lawrence, thinking "there surely must be some place to live in town," but it only took a few minutes there to convince us that Sunflower was to be our home for some time to come.
Nearly everyone who has moved into the Village later admits he is pleasantly surprised at how well living can actually be here.
D. W. McDonald of the Management Office here certainly has done everything in his power to accommodate us and he and his whole staff seem to have a remarkable reservoir of good humor.
Mrs. Kathryn Corel and Mrs. Wilma Radford in the Rental Office have the initial contact with all applicants and by some amazing process manage to smile and assign people to their respective units in spite of the fact that their office generally takes on the atmosphere of Macy's basement after a new shipment of nylons.
Their cooperation with those of us from the University has made our task easier throughout.
Sizes of units given members depends on pre- or post-war additions to the family and vary from two to five rooms. Cinder-block and prefab units are available and all are complete with all necessary utilities including hot water heater. The cooking stove and hot water heaters in the cinder-block area are gas-operated and in the pre-fab area are electric.
The heating stoves are all coal but rent includes a full coal box at all times and the "little woman" can be taught to fire the stove in no time at all (C says here in small towns where they don't have nice) it's nice to plan on teaching her when you're in one of those "I'm the boss in this family" moods.
And, by the way, that little shelter where the GI can sits wasn't made for that purpose—that's the place to hide out after you get up bleary-eyed. It has a small damper, and let the stove puff smoke at her newly washed curtains.
Right now we're a new problem child both to ourselves and to the University but we'll both learn as we go along so we'll be back later with doings of Jayhawkers in Sunflower . . .
929 New Students Recall Exams ---Headache, Backache, Eyestrain
Oh, what an ache that was!
On what an acne that was!
Headache, eyestrain, and stuff
mess around with the new
students who took the entrance
examinations last week suffered from
one or more of these ailments before
the day ended.
How quiet it was! Had a pin been dropped on the stage, even those in the back seats could have heard it hit the floor—at least when the tests first began.
The extreme lack of noise lasted for about 15 minutes—then, someone in the southwest corner coughed.
That was all it took to start an epidemic. Odd how one little cough or sneeze can be so suggestive. Immediately after the first explosion of the vaccine, throughout the auditorium. These epidemics came about three times an hour, and lasted from one to two minutes each.
The electrographic pencils used for the tests had a habit of breaking at inoportune times—and the ones which broke were being used by persons farthest from the aisles. These who had to hand a fresh pencil to the victims really appreciated losing precious time!
The first hour wasn't bad. All sufferers stood up under the ordeal pretty well. By mid-afternoon, however, approximately 900 heads began to pivot on as many necks, victims started rubbing eyes, and the seats to groan and creak as the occupants squirmed and writhed in agony.
Necks stiffened, backs ached, eyes burned, and there was no relief in sight. The examiner had just announced another test. This, he said, would be the last, but could they stick it out another hour? A loud lament came from all 929 students, and what a groan it was!
Medical School to Offer Pediatrics Course to Doctors
A refresher course in pediatrics will be offered to Kansas doctors Feb. 25 to March 1 at the University School of Medicine in Kansas City, according to a program announced by the school.
This is the third of a series of postgraduate clinics arranged in cooperation with the Kansas Medical society and the State Board of Health. In addition to the regular faculty of the School of Medicine, several nationally-known medical leaders will be instructors for the course.
In Hoch Tonight
COLUMBIA MUSEUM
This is Serge Jaroff, director of the Don Cossack chorus, which will give a concert tonight in Hoch Auditorium.
The last hour was the worst. Cough epidemics came more frequently, more pencil leads broke, and the seats became increasingly harder. When the end finally came, they felt it might have been worse, but just the same they boiled for the nearest exit.

raise the question. They don't even pretend to answer it.
The long-legged girl who got an A in Russian last semester may moan "I can't understand a word of it," but this will be real Russian you'll hear tonight. Proof is in the names of the composers and arrangers on the program—Gretchaninoff, Katalsky, Kieve-Pechersky, Tchesnokoff, Shvedoff, Zakharoff, Dobrovein, and that Shvedoff again.
Excuse us while we sneeze, please.
The male chorus has been booming around American concert stages for 16 years. Americans like them so much they have a special guard around the State Department, to be certain no Cossack ever gets a passport home.
They'll break tradition if the don't end their program with a fancy knee-bending Russian dance. While excellent for reducing purposes, and sometimes useful for breaking legs and spraining ankles, this dance can be most appreciated while someone else is doing it.

TO CALIFORNIA
Many thousands of men in uniform have yet to be returned home from the Pacific theatre. That's Union Pacific's first and most important job.
But if you're planning a trip to California, don't give up the idea. It's worth waiting for. And travel conditions are improving, day by day.
Start your vacation with relaxation. Enjoy "smooth sailing" on a fast Streamliner...a world of comfort on a modernly-appointed Limited. Or choose the Challenger—famous for low-cost travel enjoyment.
Your journey by rail will be the high-spot of your vacation or business trip.
Ask about "stop overs" at various interesting points enroute to or from California or the Pacific Northwest. Union Pacific serves more western scenic regions than any other railroad—the world's greatest travel bargain.

Broadcast May Give Argentina's Answer
Buenos Aires. (UP)—Foreign minister Juan Cooke scheduled a broadcast for tonight which may reveal whether Argentina intends to break diplomatic relations with the United States because of American accusations against the Argentine regime.
The government and Col. Juan D. Peron have remained silent despite great national excitement concerning U.S. state department charges that the Argentine regime cooperated with the axis. Many quarters believed that the next move was up to Argentina.
Paris, (UP)—Socialist and Communist members of a French assembly committee charged with drawing up a new French constitution, today rejected freedom of the press as being one of the fundamental rights of man.
Steel Price Dispute Ruptures Settlement
Washington. (UP)—A new wage price policy was in President Truman's hands today but efforts to end the steel strike were reported snagged by a dispute over the forth-coming steel price increase.
Administration officials submitted the revised wage-price policy to the President after he had rejected a proposal to revive strict ceilings for wages. The revised draft was said to call for more liberal price controls to encourage employers to grant wage increases.
Washington (UP)—A federal court jury found today that the 60-year-old expatriate poet, Ezra Pound is "of unsound mind" and incapable of standing trial on a charge of treason. The government charged that Pound made treasonable broadcasts over the Rome radio during the war.
Heirs Say F.D.R. Died a Soldier
Albany, N. Y. (UP)—Heirs of the late Franklin D. Roosevelt have appealed to the New York state tax commission to rule that the president died a soldier, it was learned here today.
The estate contends that the president's role as commander-in-chief of the armed forces entitles the heirs to a substantial state and federal income tax exemptions.
Washington. (UP)—State governors today were called upon to raise a national guard of 622,500 officers and men, more than twice as many as in the pre-war organization.
The proposed state quota for Kansas is 7,689. This quota will be divided into an air force of 312 and a ground force of 7,377.
Veterans are paid monthly subsistence allowances by the government while they receive on-the-job training under the program.
Washington. (UP)—The retraining and re-employment administration today announced it will begin investigating reported rackets in on-the-job training of veterans within 20 days.
The administration had received one report of a veteran drawing subsistence while learning how to wash automobiles in a filling station.
Washington. (UP)—President Truman today designated March as Red Cross month and urged the public to contribute as much as possible to the support of "this indispensible humanitarian cause."
The Red Cross drive for funds will aim toward a national goal of 100 million dollars:
Must Keep Draft, Patterson Says
Washington. (UP)—On the basis of present recruiting, the army probably will have to request continuation of selective service after its present expiration May 15, Secretary of War Robert Patterson declared today.
Patterson said this was necessary even though the army has obtained a record enlistment of 500,000 men in recent months. He pointed out that many of these enlistments came from men already in the service.
A final decision on extension of selective service will probably come within a month, Patterson said.
Meanwhile Mr. Patterson made it clear that a universal military training program would not provide any men for overseas occupation duty. Under a universal training program, the student would not be subject for military duty and could not be assigned to occupation duties.
New Students Almost 10-to-1 Males
Of the 1,916 new students now enrolled in classes, 1,731 are men and 185 are women.
These figures are based on the registration totals Tuesday night. No figures are available concerning the enrollment since that time.
April 1 Is Deadline For Summer Term Dorm Applications
Applications for residence in women's halk for the summer term should be in the office of the dean of women, 121 Frank Strong, by April 1, Marie Miller, assistant dean of women, said today.
Students desiring to live in Watkins and Miller halls, scholarship dormitories, next fall, may apply at any time, she added. The scholastic requirements for residence varies with the academic level of the student.
Men students may apply for summer and fall residence in Battenfeld and Carruth halls any time, Dean Henry Werner said today. Scholarship requirements for these halls is a 1.5 average, or if a freshman, the upper 10 per cent of the nigh school graduating class.
Althaus Heads School Group Meeting Here Friday
C. B. Althaus, associate professor of education, is the chairman of the executive committee of the Kansas State association of school boards which will meet at the Pine room in the Union Friday to discuss and study school organization and administration in Kansas schools.
The committee intends to work for efficient administration of educational funds and equalization of educational opportunities for all Kansas youth.

oakman announced today. The seminar, which will continue until May 23, on Thursday nights, will be open to men and women students, but the enrollment will be limited.
"There appears to be a real need for students to take part in a research class on contemporary research itself." Reverend Hughes regimented.
Each discussion period will be preceded by a brief lecture.
'Prefab' Construction Begins Next Week
No one knows what they'll look like, or how big they'll be, or their exact location, but construction of 10 prefabricated houses will begin next week south of the Hill near the intramural fields.
The first dwelling should be completed by March, the K.U. housing bureau said today. The houses may be made into barracks for single men, or made to accommodate married students and their families.
A priority system will be set up to determine who shall live in the houses. Dimensions and architectural style have not yet been decided.
Western Civilization Meets in Lindley
New students in Western Civilization will meet in 426 Lindley hall at 8 tonight instead of in Green hall as originally announced. Louise Cochran, head proctor, said today.
This change had to be made because of the large enrollment, she explained.
Do You Have These Books? Someone Else Needs Them
There is a critical shortage on the campus of the books listed below, book store managers, said today. Students having the following texts may sell them at campus book stores:
Monroe, Principles and Types of Speech.
Benet, John Brown's Body.

ISA To Elect New Council
Election of a new council for the Independent Student association will be held at 7:30 p.m. Monday in the men's lounge of the Union building, Jack Nichols, president, announced today.
Lorraine Carpenter, and Shirley Wellborn, College sophomores, are candidates for president. The defeated candidate will remain on the council as a representative at-large.
Two representatives from each class complete the council and will be nominated and elected from the floor Monday night, Nichols said. Two more representatives will be elected from the freshman class next fall.
Rally Tomorrow
"Halt the 'Huskers'" will be the cry tomorrow, when more than 1,000 new students participate in their first Jayhawk pep rally at 1 p.m. in the Union lounge.
The colorful Crimson and Blue band, Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, and Trainer Dean Nesmith will be present to help raise enthusiasm for the Nebraska basketball game tomorrow night.
Cage Tilt Is Friday, Not Saturday Night
That basketball game with Nebraska is Friday night, not Saturday.
There has been some confusion about the date because some of the tickets were mis-printed, athletic authorities said today.
The game starts at 7:30 p.m.
Friday, in Hoch auditorium.
Any Old Clothes?
If you have old clothing for foreign relief which was not collected in the clothing drive last week, leave it at Henley house, Mrs. Christine Alford, YWCA secretary, suggested today.
Too Many Men Around, So Cupid Throws Away His Bow
Dan Cupid looked around the campus this morning and tossed away his bow and arrow.
"I won't be needing 'em this Valentine's day," he chortled. "The men can take over!"
The gals agree with Cupid that the campus' husky new male contingent is enough to make this Valentine's day something extra special. They're thanking the spirit of St. Valentine $ ^{\textcircled{1}} $
to see a calendar to know that today is Feb. 14."
Today, all the bashful coed has to do it pick out a victim, find his telephone number in the student directory, call him, and murmur.
Time was (just a few years ago, around 1754), when the hopeful young woman spent the night before Valentine's day sucking a salted ham as a magic charm to help her get her man before the end of the year.
Be mindful, please,
The rest is up to St. Valentine!
"Be mine, please. huh?"
Lawrence greeting card dealers, who are getting rid of valentines "as fast as we can tear open the boxes," are afraid that the men are falling down on the job, since most of their unsold valentines are "to my wife," or "to the girl I love."
Fund Drive Starts on Campus Next Month
But the men have come through in the hearts and flowers department, ordering so many red roses that one florist said. "We don't have
A campaign to raise funds for the University war memorial driveway and carillon will be conducted on the campus next month, Kenneth Postlethwaite, Memorial association director, announced today.
A campaign in Lawrence to raise $80,000 will be conducted at the same time, Postlethwaite added. The campus quota will be announced when a student committee has been appointed.
The chamber of commerce board of directors unanimously endorsed the proposed memorial drive and carillon, and agreed to conduct a local drive to begin March 18, at a meeting yesterday.
After World War I, the chamber of commerce raised $125,000 for the University memorials, the Memorial Union and stadium. The architects, announced today by Justice Hugo T. Wedell, president of the Memorial association, are Homer F. Neville, who was graduated from the School of Engineering and Architecture in 1923, and Edward Buehler Delk, a University of Pennsylvania graduate. Neville recently designed the war housing projects at Wichita and is a member of the firm that designed the Kansas City, Mo., Municipal auditorium. Delk, who is the consulting architect for the Kansas City, Mo., park board, was the designer of the Country Club Plaza there.
The largest slump, in student employment ever to hit the University campus, has occurred this semester, Henry Werner, dean of student affairs, said today.
The employment situation is considerably different in Miss Marie Miller's office of Women's Employment Bureau. She stated that "jobs for women are the type that persons wishing employment will not accept them."
Now We Have The Men, But Not Enough Right Jobs
"Last year we had the jobs, but no men; this year there are men, men, but no jobs." he moaned. More than 400 students have passed through my office, up until this time, and all of the available jobs are filled by students of last semester."
Too many women want clerical positions and do not have the commercial background to be satisfactory, she said. This is especially true of veterans' wives, who would just "love" to work, but will not accept what she can offer them, she said.
Miss Miller can offer any type of work, from child care, sewing, cashiers, clerks, to stenographers, food service units, and also a piano accompanist. Men have been placed as waiters, garage mechanics, winemakers, cooks, tentendants, and library assistants. Wages vary from 40 to 50 cents per hour, and experience for the majority of these jobs is unnecessary.
The cry from both offices is the request that anyone who has found employment through either of these offices to notify them to this effect, they have no way of checking to find out if openings have been filled.

Relaxing Is Back
"Where is this women's lounge the WEC is asking me to contribute to?" "You've caring and won't be back next year. Why should I help?"
"What good will a lounge in Frank Strong hall do me? All of my classes are in Fraser."
Many University women have asked such questions during the past few weeks, since WEC representatives visited organized houses to tell of the project. Some women living in private homes may not know what it is all about.
is at about: contributing to the fund for the new women's lounge on the second floor of Frank Strong hall, University women will be taking one more step toward University life "as it used to be."
step toward University, the three-room lounge gave them a place on the campus to study, cat-nap, or relax between classes. Club meetings were held there, and on Thursdays organized houses sponsored teas, to which women students could drop in for a few minutes or for the afternoon. Then the war began, and the navy took over, converting the space into an office. The new generation of students who arrived did not know that the lounge had existed.
had existed.
Now, with the navy office vacated, the WEC and the University are cooperating to raise the $2,000 needed to redecorate and furnish the lounge. The University will duplicate University women's contributions, which are (to be left at the office of Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women.
With a color scheme of gray and Chinese red, the lounge will have a large room with tables and comfortable chairs for studying and visiting, a smaller room with curtained-off cots, and a kitchen with gas burners and a sink for the use of organizations preparing teas.
After the lounge is completed this spring, University women will discover that dropping in there during their free hours, besides being easier than going home or crossing the campus to the Union, is a good way to meet old friends and make new ones.
The woman student who gives a dollar to the lounge fund will have the enjoyment of the lounge's facilities herself, and the satisfaction of knowing that she has added something to the college life of those who will be here after she is gone.
Standard Conduct?
President Truman's insistence on Edwin W. Pauley for under-secretary of navy has forced the resignation of Harold L. Ickes, former secretary of the interior.
Ickes testified against senate recommendation of the appointment last week on the grounds that Pauley's interests in oil (Standard of California, chiefly) would prejudice his operation in such a position. As under-secretary he would have great influence in the navy's oil contracts. No-one was greatly surprised at this; Ickes has always had a reputation for his outspoken criticism of anyone who incurs his displeasure.
Yet it cannot be forgotten that Pauley and Ickes were quite buddy-buddy during the war while the secretary was running the office of petroleum administrator. Ickes chose for the deputy petroleum administrator, Ralph K. Davies, president of Standard Oil of California, and later defended his choice on the grounds that he had been recommended by Pauley.
Other men of the office were selected on the basis of their acceptability to the oil industry. Ickes, Davies, and Pauley made beautiful music together until Ickes became suspicious in the spring of '45 that Pauley was laying plans to get his job.
If it's a question of oil, the problem may be where can an oil man do the most good, for the oil men . . . in the department of interior or the department of navy? Pauley may have decided on the navy and given up his desire for Ickes' job. Ickes may also know that the gravy's thicker in the navy and, therefore, is trying to keep Pauley out.
The point is, there's more to this than meets the eye.-LK.
The only cheerful thing about all the trouble the "firm male hands" in Washington are having with labor is the good laugh it must be giving Frances Perkins.

Letters to the Editor Brown Explains Parking Rules
All students, faculty members and employees of the University who wish to park cars on the campus during the restricted hours are required to obtain permits.
The restricted hours are from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Mondays through Fridays, and from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Saturdays. Permit holders may park during these hours, but only in their assigned zones.
Parking is unrestricted along certain portions of the streets bordering the campus. Parking is forbidden at all times where the curbing is painted orange.
Applications for parking permits are now being received. Faculty members, employees, part-time instructors and graduate students should apply for their permits at the University business office, 123 Frank Strong hall.
Undergraduate students should apply at the office of the adviser of men. 223 Frank Strong hall.
A fee of 25 cents is charged for each permit. Permits already issued for the academic year are valid until June 30, 1946, and need not be renewed until that time.
The speed limit on all the thoroughfares of the campus is 20 miles per hour. Violators of the speed limit are required to report to the Lawrence police
Drivers are also requested to proceed more slowly than the legal speed limit of 20 miles per hour during the intervals between classes or other times when the thoroughbirds are crowded with pedestrians.
Penalties for illegal parking and for other violations of the traffic regulations consist of a series of fines. The amount of the fine automatically increases with each succeeding violation.
Students against whom fines have been assessed are not permitted to enroll again in the University until such fines have been paid. Seniors are required to pay their fines before they are graduated.
The actual tagging of cars for violations of the traffic or parking regulations will begin at 7:30 am on Monday, February 25, 1946.

They're going in circles. Frank Curry keeps making the same mistake at Battenfeld. Whenever he sees a new face on the premises, he says, "Hi, sucker," in that benevolent manner seniors take with froth. Later he discovers that the lad was only house president before the war and has returned to do graduate work. . . . It was Jack Nichols who tried to help a vet get in the School of Business. Four cards and five lines later, the advise told Jack he was going back home and get a nice quiet job in a boiler factor. Dean Werner is lamenting the fact that the new men are interested in taking jobs as sorority house boys when he wakes up (--). Greg Trombone is Denverite is the new Jawhawk who has been measuring the 14th street hill for skiing. .

Taking Off Clothes In Public Is An Art, Administration Decides
BY FREDERICK C. OTHMAN
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
That much I've got in black and white. It's official. You'll have to judge for yourself about the rest of this dispatch. You may remember a story in the papers a couple of weeks ago about the Veterans' Administration paying for the schooling of some ex-WACs in the technique of the bump and the grind.
Washington. (UP)—The federal government agrees with the Misses Gypsy Rose Lee, Hinda Wassau and Margie Hart that taking off clothes in public is an art. Or at least a craft. And an honest living for a girl who tools smothered in a dress.
Two days later the administration said that it was not, either, footing the bills of any ladies learning how to stand in front of a spotlight and keep time to the music while taking off their dresses and underwear. No strip-teasers among the WACs, the Veterans' Administration said.
Where there's smoke there's fire,
Keep Oily Hands Off the Helm
NAVY DEPT.
—From the St. Louis Star-Times
I always say. The Veterans' Administration fills a 12-story building, jammed full of people, working hard. I dropped in, located the man who knows about strip-teasing, and—well, I guess it's congress' fault.
Congress never did say what a veteran, male or female, should study. It said, simply, that if any former member of the armed services wanted to improve himself, the government would put up $500 a year for his tuition and give him $65 a month for room and board.
So about 100,000 men and women discharged from the services have taken up this offer from their Uncle Samuel, the Veterans Administra-tion thought would be a good idea to take a poll and learn what they were studying.
It checked 21,805 of its students against the department of labor's occupational catalogue. This is a big book, which lists all the honest ways there are to earn a living, including strip-teasing (catalogue number 04531).
The Veterans' Administration made a chart, with occupations on the left, and students on the right, and came up with 79 architectus, 69 actors, 115 newspaper reporters, 548 lawyers, two zoo managers, 53 bartenders, 178 preachers, 19 chiropodists, one waiter, eight magnet winders, and several thousand others studying several hundred other jobs.
Yes sir, there it was; strip-teasing.
On the right side of the page was a goose-egg, like this: 0. That indicated no WACs had expressed interest in this profession and so far, so good. Only somebody, obviously in need of bilocals, misread the chart, got 04531 confused with glass benders, and came up with the idea that the government was subsidizing two strip-tease students.
About half way down the list, just after embalmers, 146, and dressmakers, 2, was occupation number 0459.
The man said he didn't like to think about it. I said the labor department saw nothing wrong with strip-teasing. He said that was the trouble. He said he supposed if any lady from the WAC or the WAVERS wanted to undress publicly for a salary, the administration's councilor would try to dissuade her. "But if she is stubborn?" I insisted.
"What." I wondered, "would happen if a lady got out of the army and said she wanted to learn how to be a strip-tease artiste?"
That was bad. The Veterans' Administration rushed out the correction and all was well.
"She'd get her tuition paid in a strip-tease school," he said.
Hiya now, Miss Gypsy!

Why Diet? Matchstick Figures Aren't the Fashion This Year
618 WEST TWELFTH
BY JOSEPHINE HURTIG
(Daily Kansan Staff Writer)
They're at it again, for that matter I suppose they always will be since having a willowy, reed-like figure is the second desire in every girl's heart. The first, of course, is to find a suitable husband.
Yes, the girls with the more-or-less rounded figures are reducing. Let's go through the day with one of these girls.
Breakfast isn't so hard to resit. She can't see the good food she passes by, because she's too sleepy.
Lunch is a little more difficult, but the determined girl has salad, water, and dreams of her future. As *As* the trudges up the Hill after lunch, no notice that it seems a great deal steeper than it had in the morning.
Let's consider the weak girl. After her hunger is gone, she repents. It then occurs to her that she might ake some exercises in way of itonement.
The afternoon classes drag by with visions of cherry pie, and fudge cake, intermingled with the professors' lectures. At the dinner table the weak fall and eat everything that's placed before them. However, the strong persevere only to find themselves in such a foul mood that they can't get along with anyone, not even themselves. Sleep cures all of this, though, and gives enough strength to go through the torture the next day.
Before retiring, she does several of the most strenuous exercises she knows; then goes to bed with a clear conscious. The aches and pains she is confronted upon awakening are more than enough to discourage her.
Now all of us realize that reducing
isn't easy, regardless of how it's done.
Here's a word of encouragement for all girls who are trying to reduce. Cancer起止 this torture is no longer necessary. According to a statement made recently by Harry Conover, the most known model agency, the remaining servicewoman wants a good, well-rounded bundle, not a stickick.

One-Man Army Meets His Waterloo
Russell. (UP)—Sgt. Earl L. New, who became practically a one-man army at Ottweiler, Germany, last April, said today that home life can be much more hazardous than army life on the firing line, even in days of ultra-modern warfare.
He remained unscatched after, single-handedly, in one day, he had driven back several enemy bazooka teams by rifle fire, wiped out a machine gun nest by hand grenades; then, under heavy enemy machine gun and sniper fire, put out a fire in an American tank destroyer, and, with the aid of others, saved its crew.
Back home once more, the Russell farmer, who has since been awarded the Silver Star and his sergeant's stripes for his exploits, fell, hurt his arm, and was hospitalized.

ROTC Enrollment Slides to 22 Basics
R. O.T.C. enrollment is down to 22 students this semester, according to Capt. John Bradley, head of army R.O.T.C. here. All of these students are in the basic or first two years course.
Capt. Bradley said that there was no course in advanced R.O.T.C, being given at the University this semester. Beginning next semester this course will be given with entrance rules changed to make entrance easier for veterans.
Veterans of at least one year's service in the army between the ages of 19 and 27 may enter directly into the advanced course. They may enter this two year course, which will turn them out as second lieutenants in the Officers Reserve corps, without having the basic course.

the supplement, which will contain
information on new students,
changes of address, and corrections,
Miss Gilliland said.
New York. (UP)—The New York port of embarkation announced that for virtually the first time since the war started there will be no troop transports arriving on the east coast today.
No Ships On East Coast
The supplement will be financed by a fund provided by the A.S.C, and may contain no advertising, Miss Gilliland said.
They Also Serve Who Only Stand
And Stand and Stand and Stand
Students sitting on window ledges, standing in the aisles, or less luckily, standing in the halls wondering where their classes are meeting, are just part of the after-math of enollment.
Classes at 12:30 p.m. have been opened in Accounting I and Business Law I. The School of Business is holding more Saturday morning classes than it has before, and the English department has opened several Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday classes.
"Considering our increased enrollment, we are conducting a minimum of noon and Saturday classes," Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, said. So far, it has not been necessary to hold evening classes.
There are about 250 students in each of the two lecture sections in General Biology which meet in 426 Lindley hall. Exactly 431 students are enrolled in Chemistry II and are meeting in three sections.
Union Committee Plans Activities
Plans for many new student activities for the spring semester were made by the Union Activities committee yesterday.
A ping-pong tournament, photography club and contest, and a chess club are a few of the coming activities. The mid-week dances at the Union also will be continued this semester.
It's pretty generally accepted that college is the best place for daughter to meet an acceptable mate, but still she has to major in one of the fool things listed in the school catalog.

When I was home between semesters, my folks asked "Why don't you let us hear from you more often down there at Lawrence?" I mumbled this and that, and finally they said, "Well, if you can't write every day, you at least could send us the school paper, and we could look for your name in Rock Chalk." So—
that's what I'm doing. The University Daily Kansan only costs three bucks from now until the end of the semester, and I don't have to worry about mailing copies of anything—that's all done right from the Daily Kansan Subscription office, in the Journalism building.

On the Fenski with MEG WENSKI
Back in the fold of the Jayhawker basketball club are the Swede Genes—Peterson and Anderson—who assumed a doubtful status after the first semester but who probably will remain with the team the rest of the season.
Peterson, the 6 foot 7 inch sophomore from Nebraska, headed for home after his last final intending to quit school, but enrolled for the second semester after a conference with his draft board. Anderson, the freshman forward from Salina, also enrolled this week.
"Little" George Gear, the wonder boy of football, and the newly discovered center for the quintet, pulled another surprise out of the bag for his fans when he scored a 3.0 grade point average for his first semester in college.
Two or three new football coaching assistants will be announced within a few days by hubba-hubba Coach Sauer.
Meet Your Team. "Windy" Clark, third high scorer for the Jayhawker quintet with a 5.0 scoring average, has nine years of basketball playing to mark him one of the best defensive men on the team.
First stationed at San Diego when he entered the navy, Clark was transferred to Denison where he played the brand of basketball which won him a position on the All-Ohio team.
In addition to basketball. Windy is a baseball enthusiast, and boldly states that the St. Louis Cardinals will take the national league pendant. Collecting records is the favorite hobby of this quiet, good-natured fellow. And it is only when he has both hands on the ball does he show the firebrand, hustling spirit and the ease with which he handles the shots with both hands.
Vital statistics show Windy as 6 foot, 1 and 1-2 inches, 175 pounds. His home town is Victoria, ill., and he is now on the V-12 traintraining program.
He is a member of Sigma Chi fraternity.
Workshop to Meet
Dramatic workshop will meet Tuesday at 4:30 in the little theater of Green hall to discuss the coming semester's work. Virginia Urban, president, said today.

20 More Can Live In Thayer Museum
Room for 20 more men is available in the basement of Thayer museum Irvin Youngberg, housing director, said today.
Sixty-one men and their "house mother," Samuel Elliott, have settled in the museum, and are planning to organize their house in the near future. Mr. Youngberr said.
Indianapolis (UP)—The Reverend Sumner L. Martin believes that whoever took an eight-day clock from the Roberts Park Methodist church was simply trying facetiously to limit the length of the pastor's sermons. Martin said his first reaction was to plan a one-hour "spite" sermon instead of his customary 25 - minute talk. However, he decided against the plan because it would penalize not only the thief but also the congregation. And he was afraid the clock-taker would be absent from the service.
Church Clock Missing
The emergency living quarters for men in Robinson gymnastium and the Stadium will not be used this semester, as all men students have been cared for, and the release of Templin hall will leave more rooms downtown in addition to the still unoccupied space in Spooner hall, Mr. Youngberg said.

Except for some additional lockers, chairs, and lounge furniture, which will be here in the next few days, the facilities at Spooner hall are complete, Mr. Youngberg said.

Lights Burn Brightly In Museum Dorm
New lights will be burning brightly during the next semester as the Spooner-Thayer residents hit the books and carry on the conventional college "bull" sessions.
Sixty-four former servicemen are living in surroundings similar to that in which they have lived for the past few years. The new dormitory has been divided into three separate sections—sleeping quarters, study hall and locker room, and the yet-to-be provided lounge.
The entrance to the quarters is at the ground level door at the southeast corner of the building.
Sleeping quarters consist of 40 upper-lower bunks, still containing the USAAF and USN identification marks; Another reminder of G.I. life is the barracks box at the end of each bunk.
Next to the sleeping quarters is a large study hall, a well lit room the full width of the building. This room formerly held some of the Spooner-Thayer Museum pieces and the windows still contain metal bars living a somewhat different atmosphere from normal dormitory scenes.
As to the suitability of the dorm, Jack Bruyr, ex-GL. from the European theater of war stated: "It is almost like barracks live again except getting as much sleep as before but then things aren't settled vet."
The mail call is at 2:30 p.m. and is carried out by the "housemother" Samuel Elliot. "Sam" is the commanding general and the information man for all kinds and types of questions. His reaction to his housemother position was:
"It's exciting and I'm the happiest man in the world being the housemother for all of these boys."

Crowd Applauds Don Cossacks
A near-capacity crowd applauded the performances of the Don Cossack chorus and the three Russian folk-dancers in last night's program at Hoch auditorium.
Ranging from a rumbling bass to a girlish tenor, the chorus filled the auditorium with numbers ranging from the medley of Tschaikowsky compositions to the 14th Century Renaissance music provided by dogs barking, men shouting, and whistling in the modern "Who Knows?"
Under the direction of diminutive Serge Jaroff, the chorus stood at attention for all of the hour and a half long concert except during the two dancing numbers during which it spread across the stage and provided musical accompaniment for the dancers.

Army to Draft 4-F's For Occupation Troop
Washington. (UP)—The nation's draft boards began combing their registration lists today for younger 4-F's to meet the army's critical need for occupation troops.
The army, admitting defeat in its efforts to obtain fully fit men, asked selective service to funnel 75,000 physical rejects into uniform by the end of April.
The 4-F's for the most part will be taken from the ranks of nonfathers between the ages of 18 and 25 who previously qualified for limited service but were not taken because of overflow quotas.

Philippine '4th of July' May be Postponed
Tokyo. (UP)—Tomas Confessor, Philippine delegate to the Far Eastern commission said today that postponement of Philippine independence—slated for July 4, 1946—may be justified due to the war's disruption of the island's economy.
Quoted by the army newspaper Stars and Stripes, Confessor said: 'we war has happened the Philippines could have relied to assume the responsibilities of independent government at this time. But the war has changed aspects affecting the industrial and material development of the country.'
Washington, (UP)—Mrs. Harry S Truman will close the White House social season by March 6, to observe Lent.
Wage Price Formula To End Major Strikes
(By United Press)
The nation looked to President Truman's new wage-price formula today to settle walkouts in three major industries and send three-fourths of the 1,529,000 strike-idle American workers back to their jobs.
Government labor officials hoped that the President's offer of limited price increases would open the way to settlement of longstanding disputes in the steel, electrical and automotive industries, involving approximately 1,125,000 CIO workers.
London, (UP)-Syria and Lebanon handed the UNO security council its final pre-adjournment problem today by asking the United Nations to help get British and French troops out of the Levant.
Truman Names New Ambassador to Russia
Buenos Aires. (UP)—The Argentine military regime today denounced as falsehoods American charges that it collaborated with the Nazis, while two new outbreaks of gunfire marred the presidential election campaign in which it is seeking to retain power.
Washington. (UP)—President Truman asks congress tomorrow to make it possible for Lt. Gen. Walter Bedell Smith to serve as ambassador to Russia without losing his military rank.
The selection of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's wartime chief of staff to the important diplomatic post was announced by the President last night, shortly after he had accepted the resignation of W. Averell Harriman.
Bill To Fix 75-Cent Minimum Wage Goes to Senate
Washington. (UP) — An administration-backed bill to increase minimum wages to an eventual 75 cents an hour was heading today toward a battle on the senate floor.
Many southern Democrats, victorious in their recent filibuster against anti-discrimination legislation, were cool or downright hostile to the measure approved by the senate labor committee.
Committee chairman James E. Murray, D. Mont., estimated that the bill would bring pay increases for six million workers. About half of these would be brought under wage regulations for the first time. This would be accountable to Congress from the present law which calls for minimum pay of 40 cents an hour in all enterprises engaged in inter-state commerce.
The new bill proposes a 65-cent minimum wage for two years. Then the minimum would jump to 70 cents for two years, and after that it would be 75 cents. Affected employees working more than 40 hours weekly would have to be paid time and a half for the extra hours.
A last-minute committee amendment would make the law apply to retail chains that have as many as four stores and do a total annual business of $500,000. The amendment was proposed by Dr. Pho, who estimated it would affect about 2,000,000 workers.
Men's Glee Club Tryouts Next Week
Tryouts for the K.U. Men's Glee club will be held 7 to 8 p.m., Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in 132 Frank Strong hall, D. M. Swarthout, director, said today.
No experience is necessary, and students receive college credit after one semester in the group, Dean Swarthout added.
First tenors and second bases are especially needed.
The Glee club gives programs throughout the semester and joins with other campus musical groups for special concerts.
George Sauer, newly appointed K.U. football coach, will be introduced during the half-time intermission at the Nebraska basketball game in Hoch tonight. A community sing, led by Arden Booth, WREN announcer, also will be held between halves.

No one will know the identity of the smoking cops, who will haunt the halls of class buildings for fire offenders, or the hours when they will be in class or on the prowl. If you are on terms with every veteran on the campus, you maybe "in the know," because "cops" will be selected from their ranks.
The SSS will distribute tickets diseriminately among your firebug friends, requesting their presence before the Student Court on a specified date and time.
The SSS appointments will be made as soon as a new ASC smoking committee chairman is selected to replace Shirley Corlett, College junior, who resigned this week.
Sunflower Bus Will Come To Campus
Instructors who have students living at Sunflower in their 8:30 classes no longer will have to refrain from asking them questions during the first 15 minutes of the class period.
These students no longer will be breathless from their daily sprint up 14th street to make classes on time.
Beginning today the 7:45 a.m. students' bus from Sunflower will unload at 8:00 a.m.
At 5:10 p.m. a bus will load in front of the library for the return trip.
You can't get a two dollar ticket on War Admiral to win through those cute little windows at the business office, but you'd better place your fee money in the till or you won't show in class after next Thursday.
University students will hear four national figures within two months during this spring semester.
With less than 15 actual working hours in which to pay fees with out penalty, less than 50 percent of the K.U. students have sweated the line. Come next Monday noon, you get bigger tickets and googooggle three days if you don't pay up. After that you can wear a visitors tag when you come on the hill.
The business office is open from 8 a.m. to noon and from 1:30 until 5 p.m. The lines aren't getting any shorter, so bring your lunch. Forever Amber, and a milk stool and wait.

Doctors Spare Dreaded 'Hook In Examining 767 Veterans
The spring convocation menu will include Arthur Compton, president of Washington university, St. Louis; Lord Halifax, former British ambassador to the United States; Harold Stassen,
DR. R. I. CANUTESON
"It's just like an army physical without the tetamus shots."
That's the verdict of the 767 men who went through the mill at Watkins Memorial hospital last weekend, leaving surprised doctors reeling.
PRESIDENT
The hospital staff had expected to give 220 new students physical examinations this semester. Instead,
they found themselves tossing off 315 Saturday, 202 Sunday, and 250 Monday, with a hundred more men to be taken later, a few at a time, and 60 women signed up for tomorrow morning.
Thirty-five hospital workers, including several veteran doctors doing graduate work, and a few senior medical students, were in on the fun. They had each man's time charted from the instant he pushed open the glass front door.
After spending 60 seconds in the lobby having his record checked and making sure that he wasn't in Lindley hall or Dyche museum, the victim spent four minutes filling out a card telling about himself, and another five giving a good looking nurse his case history.
Then came a minute for a tuberculin test, three to find out that he wasn't blind, seven for an ear examination, three for a speech test, and 15 for the rest of the examination. (Fardon us while we blush.)
Since the veterans are old hands at such things, the examinations being to Dr Ralph Camuteson, director of the University health service.
"These men knew what was wanted, they didn't get lost, and they didn't lose things," he explains. "Usually we go around afterward picking up cigarette lighters, compacts, neckties, fountain pens, scarfs—everything but trousers!"
Justice Wiley Rutledge of the United States Supreme court will address the School of Law in the first of the Judge Stephens lecture series, Dean F. J. Moreau announced today.

Government Debt To Drop Two Billion
The federal government's debt will be reduced by approximately $2,800,000,000 during the first half of March. treasury officials said today.
This does not mean that the treasury is in the black. Expenditures still exceed tax receipts but the treasury is going to use some of its cash on hand to pay off outstanding bonds.
The national debt now is approximately $279,500,000,000.

Above Boarding
Just before semester vacation, the Inter-fraternity council did a smart thing. Accepting the recommendation of the national council, it voted unanimously to ban boarding and hell week from fraternity programs on the Hill.
The vote was unanimous, but that is not to say there were no private regrets. A few fraternity men are honest enough to admit that they could see no harm in paddling; they were freshmen once and it didn't kill them. As actives, they look at the practice as all around good fun and an expedient disciplinary measure.
But even these men admit that paddling as a fraternity tradition had to go. Challenged from all sides to justify their existence, Greek letter organizations are far too busy defending their worthwhile goals to uphold the questionable traditions of beating and hell week.
Which is not to give the critics of Greek life the entire credit for this reform in the fraternity system. Undoubtedly the obvious foolhardiness of upholding such a target with the bull's eye so plainly marked had a great deal to do with the recommendation of the National Inter-fraternity council and the action of the local group.
However, fraternities on their own had come to question the now abolished traditions. As a matter of national policy, some fraternities long ago prohibited corporal punishment for pledge misdemeanors. Other organizations have taken care of the matter in local chapters; a number of University groups had privately substituted work hours and study camouflages for the maddle.
So the recent Inter-fraternity council action is not just a dip of the wing to an irate section of the public.
A statistician informs us that the chances of identical bridge hands being dealt in 18 trials are one in 350,000,000,000,000,000,000. At last—a figure larger than the national debt!
Some men may have been hurried a little in accepting this mature outlook, but in time, as a practical extension of fraternity ideals, the reform would have been effected anyway.
With enrollment high and houses scarce, it looks as if final week won't be the only time for cramming this semester. ...
The Station Needs a Break
Although there were no rehearsals and no broadcasts, the campus had a radio station last semester. Not KFKU with its educational features and panel discussions, but a student station with uninterrupted half hours of popular music and vox pop programs on the library steps.
Call numbers for the station were WAWM (William Allen White Memorial) and there were officers—general manager, program manager, research director, and promotion chairman. On the air from 7 until 8:30 p.m., station broadcasts were to be available to student houses only—a modern miracle of private transmitters and University power lines.
The plans were all laid in the classroom of the course, Radio Copy Techniques. Programs—serials, interviews, dramas, continuity—were written as class assignments. But the instructor never assigned the tasks of finding transmitters, installing transmitters, or selling advertising. So somehow, these things never got done.
And why? Well, mostly because the 13 students in the course happened to be students who were already too busy with other things—the Daily Kansan, the Jayhawker, the All-Student Council.
The radio station hit a common snag. It depended upon supporters who already had too many other interests; so it collapsed before gathering strength enough to utter a syllable.
Will anyone else take WAWM by the heels and shake it until it talks? We'll see this semester.
Radio Copy Techniques is not being offered again. And after one failure, the instructor who was in charge is in no mood to ask a student to be responsible for the station. But the idea of it all is still knocking around the campus—easy prey for anyone with ambition and time.
During a semester students are told they must plan their work and time in order to receive the greatest benefit from their courses. Yet at the close of the semester some professor always finds himself 200 pages short of covering the book and throws everyone in a turmoil by assigning what's left for the last week.
Basketball Coaches Lonborg and Meyer, of Northwestern and De Paul, this week suggested that the game be slowed down, hinting that "firewagon basketball has run out of gas." Didn't we hear the same idea from "Phog" Allen a year ago?
We wonder why Jimmie Byrnes doesn't take James Petrillo, head of the American Federation of Musicians, with him to the next foreign ministers conference? Petrillo not only gets what he wants without a compromise; he gets two of it.

After carefully arranging it, Bill let loose with one heart.

'Louisiana Havride' Ends
Building his machine with men from the highways and byways, Long conducted a fiery first administration. The Louisiana house of representatives impeached him, but the senate produced a round-robin with 15 signatures which said the
**EIGHT'S NOX:** Robert Maestri, mayor of New Orleans, was the last man in the Huey Long political machine to be arrested. He was cuffed, via the ballot box. The following article recalls the story of a machine end its "Louisiana Hurricane."
(By United Press)
With the defeat at the polls of Robert S. Maestri, for 10 years mayor of New Orleans, Huey Long's two-decade "Louisiana Hayride" positive conclusion This final blow on Jake Karp's career after Huey's machine hit the "big time" and 10 years after the "Kingfish"'s assassination.
He hariragued the backwoods folks about the maldistribution of wealth —this was to become his “Share the Wealth Plan,”—and on his 30th birthday he ran for governor. That was in 1923, and defeat did not daunt him. He ran again in 1927 and was elected.
The Huey Long epoch started out like a ball of fire, sizzling every second until its finish. Long was born a poor boy in the cotton town of La, but he soon outgrew his master La, and he soon career as a traveling salesman, he studied law at Tulane university and then tried politics.
With the impeachment test over, Huey decided in 1931 to run for U.S. senator. He was elected easily and began attracting nation-wide attention with his Washington tirades and filibusters.
When Tulane defeated Louisiana State university 14-13 in football, he had a bill introduced in the legislature outlawing the point after touchdown. Another time he offered L.S.U. star Able Mickel a state senatorship after an L.S.U. victory. Abe was under age and a resident of Mississippi, but that didn't matter.
Although on a hot Sunday night in 1935 the "Kingfish" slumped inside his state capital with several bullets in his body, the machine boys prospered in spite of their minor role in the scandal at Louisiana State university cent Federal investigators into the Louisiana political picture.
signers would not vote for conviction no matter what the evidence
But he continued to keep his thumb on the Louisiana legislature. Through his efforts Louisiana State university was built to great proportions to spite his alma mater, Tulane, where he had been refused a degree.
Dr. James Monroe Smith, installed by Huey Long as president of L.S.U. had been caught in some financial irregularities and had resigned. He and his wife could not be found. The president of a university had,
Few persons now living—possibly only one—know the contents of the collection given to the library more than 26 years ago by Robert Todd Lincoln, son of the Civil wartime president.
More Lincoln Secrets May Come to Light After Next Year
Not until July 26, 1947, and maybe later, will the public be told what the papers from the desk and personal files of the Great Emancipator reveal.
In giving the collection to the library, Robert Todd Lincoln specified that it be "carefully preserved from official or public inspection or private view" until at least 21 years after his death.
Washington. (UP)—In secluded stunks of the library of congress, secret work is progressing on a collection of personal papers which may yield new information on Abraham Lincoln's life and times.
The 21 years—Robert Todd Lincoln, onetime president of the Pullman company died here July 26. 1928 —expire July 26. 1947.
However, six months before his death the son wrote the library that it could proceed with indexing the "letters, manuscripts, documents and other private papers" to prepare them "against the time when they shall be opened to the public."
There has been much speculation, but no official explanation, as to why Robert Todd Lincoln conditioned his gift with instructions that it be withheld from the public for the 21 years. Most persons believe that he did this to prevent any possible embarrassment to men or women then living who were mentioned in his father's files.
One library employee, assigned to the job more than three years ago, is working alone on the indexing, he said. His listing was interrupted when the collection was moved to the University of Virginia for war-time security, but recently was resumed.
Students of Lincolnia, however, look for little startling from the disclosure of the collection's contents. They believe it will be of chief value to scholars in filling in the tapestried background of the Civil war era.
Eventually the collection will be microfilmed to provide copies for other libraries and, institutions, Evans said. Even this may be postponed until after July 26, 1947, to safeguard against any leaks.
Dr. Luther H. Evans, librarian of congress, reiterated that every precaution will continue to be taken to keep the contents secret until July 26, 1947.
A few others have contended the collection will reveal that a member of Lincoln's cabinet was in conspiracy with his assassin.
These theories, scholarly and otherwise, bring a constant trickle of inquiries to the library.

Where Do You Live, Pretty Maid? Four Houses at Once, She Said
By BEVERLY BAUMER and WILLIAM HAAGE
"I live at 712, 714, and 716 McCook street and 1112 Illinois," kind sir, she said.
"And where do you live, my pretty maid?"
And chances are she'd not be kidding—not if she's a Locksley hall inmate. Those Locksley ladies are truly in a house divided, but the only fall they're expecting is next fall when the houses will be connected by more than a spiritual bond and a house bill.
This complicated arrangement was the direct result of the shortage of men in the wartime years. Locksley hall was formed in 1944 by a group of girls who took over the Delta Upsilon house when the D.U.'s went to war.

and communications have become quite difficult since the move. A meeting will be held—house meetings are in 714 McLean to—find some way of finding anyone in a hurry and the girls seem quite optimistic about reaching some solution.
Just imagine this situation: A caller comes to 714 McKee, where Mrs. Evian Christian, housemother, "Takes for Shirley Well-born," he says.
"Supper's just over so she may be still coffeeing at 1112 Illinois."
"I'm looking for Shirley Wellborn," he says hopefully.
"Oh, she just went to 716 McCook to see the proctor."
win less vim and vigor he trots to 716.
"I'm looking for Shirley Wellborn," he says with a resigned look.
"She and the proctor went over to inspect the sleeping quarters at 712," comes the answer.
Now, after that runaround, would he still look for Shirley Wellborn, or go back and do something easy, like studying this early in the semester?
\* \* \*
Of course, moving in at this time of year has left a few little items to be desired.
For instance, the coeds eat at 1112 Illinois. . . but the cook to feed them isn't there yet. And there's going to be a 22 cubic foot refrigerator in that kitchen. . . when it comes. And the girls at 1112 Illinois had to impose on those at 716 McCook for bath facilities, until plumbing arrived.
Peace reigns in this somewhat disjointed family by courtesy of proctors, one for each house.
The sleeping is done on wooden navy beds. A dozen girls live in 712 McCook, while the others are spread out (figuratively speaking, of course) among the remaining three houses.
Locklesh does have a bar in its midst-a snack bar, between one of the living rooms and a small recreation room.

"A big American cookbook is going to be Cynthia's favorite reading." he grins, and she doesn't contradict him.
"But the war stopped, transportation stopped, and I stopped," she laughs.
They met during a dance at an air base in central England, and were married almost two years ago. Mrs. Rose planned to come to America last May.
She applied for another visa last fall, after her husband had been returned to this country in time to enroll in the fall semester.
"They say the Argentina had the roughest Altantic crossing in 20 years," she relates, "but I picked the one calm day to be seasick!"
"Seeing America has made me realize how little we had at home," the little Britishiser comments. "Gosh, all those things in the stores!"
She tosses off American slang with a British accent, and is considering entering KU. next summer so she can be a real Jayhawker.
For Size 16 (or Less),
There'll Be
Pastel Slacks in Plaid
New York. (UP)—Pastel plaids in six different flavors will grace the slack-clad posteriors of some 200,000 women this spring—but only up to size 16.
That, the king of slacks allows, is about as big as will dare the lovely butt conspicuous woolens he has designed and contracted to buy exclusively from Phyllis fabrics. (Plain colors, now, he'll make for a 60-inch waist—and sell.)
Louis Schaeffer, the king by trademark (also the queen and the prince), who will put pink panties on the ladies with complete modesty, says the novelty checks he's made for women. —And he claims to make 75 per cent of the nation's man-tailored slacks for women.
The new woolen line is a plaid the size of a large check with six variations of confectionary colors all on white; two shades of red; pink and blue; rose and blue; red and green (but muted), and green and pink.
Man-tailoring will cut down on the illusion of spread, Schaefer says—but that doesn't mean men's pants. Schaefer made them once, but he's got a different pattern for the ladies; he put his waistband over the waist, a handful of inches wider the rear; a slimmer leg, in three combinations for varying figures.
Schaeffer says he sells some 750,000 pairs of slacks a year, and has been supplying the British war brides by means of the Red Cross.
Slacks are here to stay, Schaeffer says. With the new vogue in hippiness, who's to deny?
Train Helps 'Spread' Truckload of Nylons
Washington. (UP)—The shortage of nylon stockings in suburban Hyattsville, Md., was not quite so acute today, after the wreck of a large trailer truck on a railroad crossing.
The cargo included stockings men's socks and 2500 pound bolts of nylon yarn. The truck driver escaped before the train hit his vehicle.
A train demolished the truck which had stalled on the crossing and dozens of persons grabbed stockings and took off their shoes. A police arrived to guard the cargo.

Let Me Serve Full Term, Forger Pleads
Philadelphia. (UP) —The judge tried to console pretty, 21-year-old Mrs. Elaine McColgan when he sentenced her to a year-and-a-day in prison for forging a neighbor's allotment check to buy groceries.
"If you behave yourself," said Judge Harry E. Kalodner, "you will be eligible for parole in four months."
But Mrs. McColgan refused the offer, explaining:
"If you don't mind, Judge, I'd rather serve the whole sentence. My whole life has been messed up and the only way I can straighten things out is to be away for a long time."

K.U. Will Train Bong Scholars In Aeronautics
K. U. has been selected to train scholarship student in aeronautical engineering through a plan of the Richard Ira Bong memorial foundation, Chancellor Deane W. Malott, announced today.
One of the American schools fully accredited in aeronautical engineering by the Engineers' Council for Professional Development, the University will assist in educating 50 of the best qualified high school graduates each year.
CARLTON
CAPT. EDDIE RICKENBACKER
Chancellor Malott, in making the announcement said, "The University of Kansas is pleased to be included among the institutions that will share Foundation in educating American youth in this highly important field.
"The plan of the Bong memorial foundation to offer a living memorial to the late Major Bong and his compatriots is one of the finest projects in America today and will add materially to the aviation industry in the era ahead," the chancellor declared.
The memorial foundation, organized in Poplar, Wise., bv friends and neighbors of the late World War II ace will award $1,000 scholarships yearly through public contributions.
Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker, famed World War I top-racing ace, is honorary foundation chairman. Honorary vice-chairmen are Gen. H. H. Arnold, Col. Jimmy Stewart, motion picture actor.
You Aren't at K.U. If You Don't Stand In Line for Books
Have you been standing in line for books? You aren't an eager K.U. student if you haven't been, simply because there is no other way.
The longest line leads to Rowland's store at 1401 Ohio. Here is found a new "twist" to this standing in line deal that wasn't found in the army or anywhere else except on icy, off-perpendicular 14th street hill.
Army veterans grumbling "I thought when I got out of the army I was through with standing in lines" are suddenly brightened by the sight of a good-looking ed-ed sliding by on all fours. Breaks the monotony any-way. (No fair tripping, fellows, might break something else.)
Standing in the line might have its interesting side, but inside the store the situation looks hopeless.) The place is so jammed that you can't open the door without saying "pardon me."
"Pardon me for knocking you down." that is.
Students may get a "bit tired" standing in line, but bookstore employees are having a time, too. The rush starts at 8:00 a.m. The doors are closed at 5:30 p.m, but the store isn't cleared of customers until after 7. Then there remains the job of telegraphing orders for more books.
Text books are still regarded as non-essential, and are on a quota according to the number of books ordered a year ago. The books needed last year won't serve the great increase in enrollment this semester, and the situation may be worse next fall.
Encouraging, isn't it? Cheer up, it's a long time till finals.

Summer School Will Offer Courses In 39 Departments
Not that you've quite finished the spring semester yet, but courses in 39 different departments will be offered in K.U.'s summer school this year.
The eight-week sessions begins June 18 and ends Aug. 10. Courses are designed to fit six different groups, officials say:
Returning veterans.
High school graduates who wish to begin their college work early.
University students who want to accelerate their programs.
Teachers who wish to obtain emergency certificates or to renew their certificates.
Persons doing advanced graduate study.
Educators desiring a chance for professional improvement.
Adequate housing will be available, and a maximum of eight credits will be offered each student.
Statewide Activities Sponsors Debate Here
A debate tournament to determine state champions will be sponsored for 10 high school teams here tomorrow by the K.U. Statewide Activities committee.
Judged by University faculty members and students, and townpeople from Lawrence, Manhattan, Ottawa, and Baldwin, the debate will concern compulsory military training. Participating will be teams from Newton, Hutchinson, Salina, Topeka, Russell, Wichita North, Stafford, Chapman, Washington rural, and Winchester.

Jayhawkers Go 'Cornhusking' In Hoch Tonight
The Jayhawkker quintet opens the second semester Big Six battle when it encounters the Nebraska Cornhuskers at 7:30 tonight in Hoch auditorium.
Kansas court men have remained silent since swapping K-State 68-42 two weeks ago. Nebraska kept the Jayhawkers at a steady pace earlier in the season when they dropped their first game to Kansas, 56-45.
Dangerous men in the Nebraska club are Bob Korte, center, and Joe Brown, forward. Leo Schneider is considered one of the best guards in the conference.
The final four conference games for Kansas will be completed in two weeks. Beaten only by the Mt. Oread quintet, the Oklahoma Sooners crept within a half game of the Jayhawkers Tuesday night by taking K-State, 57-44, at Manhattan. If KU. and Oklahoma can climb through the rest of the conference contests undefeated, the Feb. 28 game at Norman will be held for the tussle.
Oklahoma must meet the dangerous Iowa State team at Ames Feb. 23. If they get by Kansas Feb. 28, they still must humble the rejuvenated Missouri Tigers March 2 before claiming a slice of the championship pie.
Undefeated in six Big Six contests, and beaten only by the national champion Oklahoma Aggies, the Jayhawkers must conquer Missouri and Iowa State in addition to Nebraska before moving into Norman to capture the Big Six crown.
Jack Ballard, the forward reserve on the 1943 champion team had been scheduled to be suited up for tonight's game, but probably will not return to the Kansas court until next week after he completes a
First Call for Football; Meet Monday Night
George Sauer, new football coach for Kansas, called his first pre-prep practice meeting for KU grid candidates at 7:30 p.m. Monday in room 202 Robinson gymnasium.

He will outline plans for spring drills which open March 11. Other squad meetings will precede spring workouts.

Thinclads Meet M.U. In Columbia Saturday
The K.U. track team will go after its second straight win of the indoor season Saturday when an 18-man Jayhawker squad matches strides and strains with Missouri in Columbia.
Victors over Oklahoma, 56-48 in their first dual meet of the season, and winners of six places in the Michigan State indoor relays last week, the red and blue thinclads are slipping into the limelight as a first-class conference title contender.
Kansas will carry a pair of new performers against the Bengals in Tom Scofield, high jumper and broad jumper, and Dick Anderson, spinner and pole vaulter. Scofield holds the K.U.-M.U. dual meet high jump record at six feet three. He also won the outdoor title in his specialty two years ago and tied for the indoor crown.
Anderson will be given a trial in the 60-yard dash and pole vault.
the 60-yard dash and pole vault.
Along with Seoldaf, Kanchl is counting on points from his randy developing quartermiller, Johnny Jackson; Shot-putter LeRoy Robison; Hurdler Dexter Welton, Broad-jumper Mel Stevens; and distance paddle Hal Moore.
Jackson established a new KU indoor record for the 440 with a 51.1 performance as leadoff man for the Jayhawk distance medley relay team at East Lansing. This quartet finished behind Michigan and Notre Dame to take third place.
Robison arched the shot 44-4 for fifth place after taking at Oklahoma with a toss of $44.81\%$. Welton picked off a fourth in the broad jump at 21-7 and is expected to improve this mark against the Tigers. In an effort to keep the Spartan games with a leap at 22-4 in the broad jump and will be a definite threat for the indoor crown next month.
Moore, who was unbeaten in conference cross-country competition, won both the mile and two-mile against O.U. and was party to a pair of placing relay teams at Michigan State.
27 Students In Flying Club
Interest in flight activity on the campus has shown a decided increase with the opening of the second semester indicating a total of 27 students, a record high, active in the Jayhawk Flying club.
The club goal, a private pilot's license, was attained by nine of the 10 members participating in the program last semester, with the remaining student to obtain a certificate soon upon completion of flight time at Lawrence airport.
The ground school supervisor, Prof. W. M. Simpson, anticipates a further increase in the program, provided approval is obtained from the Veteran's Administration to offer the training at government expense through the G.I. Bill of Rights. Those participating on a non-veteran basis pay a $40 club membership fee plus $8.50 an hour for actual flying time at the airport.
Flight instruction will begin this weekend, with ground school classes continuing in the Aeronautical Engineering building at 10:30 o'clock Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Applications for admission will be received for another week, Professor Simpson announced today.
Those receiving private pilot certificates last semester included Tom Bailey, Shirley Cundiff, Prof. Lowell Laudon, Clyde Lunger, Ann Newcomer, Sue Newcomer, Evangeline Pratt, Richard Wilhoit and John Higdon.
Members of the club this semester include Jacqueline Logan, Shirley Otter, Richard Cray, Max Hand, Wilma Kendell, Albert Pendleton, Charles Schafer, Achilles Wheat, Thomas Gregg, James Marshall, William Pendleton, Crayton Benton, Gilbert Bartling, John Exley, James Topping, Charles Powell, Richard Pine, John Fowler, Robert York, Anderson Chandler, Paul Zook, James Draper, Virginia Stephenson, Lloyd Svoboda, William Newell, Gilbert West, and Jesse Lewis.

Some GI 'Training' Really Is Chiseling Government Charges
Washington. (UP) — The government is planning a crack-down on chiselers whom it suspects are using GI on-the-job training to get cheap veteran labor.
It will look with critical eye at 18-months courses leading to jobs as filling station attendants; at training programs for janitors; at innumerable on-the-job courses as grocery clerks, salesmen and porters.
State-approved jobs, on which the VA may be called on to pay up to $90 a month in subsistence allowance, include an 18-month training course in a Worcester, Mass., service station, leading to a job as serviceman. In Boston two-year job-courses were created for securities salesmen.
The study will cover some 45,000 firms now approved by state agencies for job-training at federal expense.
A janitor's on-the-job training program was okayed in Corinth, Miss. In Calhoun City, Miss., provision was made for a veteran to be trained as a drug store porter.

Joe Louis Promises 'New Technique' For Fight With Conn
Los Angeles, (UP)—Heavyweight Boxing Champion Joe Louis unlimbered his golf clubs today, intent on getting as much fairways recreation as possible before going into training for his title bout with Billy Conn.
The Brown Bomber was more optimistic about his chances of defeating Conn next June than he was of equalling the 70 he shot here several months ago before going on a personal appearance tour.
Louis said he had a new technique to try out on Conn, and "any-one who says this fight's going to happen the last time we met is wrong."
"I hope the fight doesn't go the whole 15 rounds," he said. "And that's one reason I'm working out this new technique."

Bowles Gets More Authority
Washington. (UP) — Hold-the-line Chester Bowles, the government's foremost inflation fighter, won new power today and a bigger job as economic stabilization director.
The OPA chief had to let the "line" bend in order to do it. He agreed to a policy of more liberal price increases than he previously had favored to offset wage raises.
In the stabilization position, he will have control over both wages and prices in carrying out President Trump's new wage-policy price.
Under Bowles, in charge of OPA, will be Paul A. Porter, another advocate of a firm hold-the-line policy.
Mr. Truman announced that Bowles would succeed judge John C. Collet. Collet will return to the federal bench in Missouri.
Also under Bowles, will be the
child of Mr. W. Wintz
will commence to head it.
Bowles' new office as stabilization director falls under the technical jurisdiction of John W. Snyder, the reconversion director. Their exact relationship is still to be defined by the president.
Students Get Chance To Rate Faculty
Madison, Wis. (U.P.)—Tables are turned on the University of Wisconsin faculty. Students, who for years have been taking criticism from professors, now are giving their teachers the once-over.
The students got their chance to talk back through questionnaires, in which they rate professors' teaching methods and efficiency and such things as changes in social attitudes acquired at the university, the value of cribbing for tests and their own ability to use foreign languages.
The program started last spring when 5,000 questionnaires were distributed to upper classmen by the student board's academic relations committee. The professors will find out what the students think of them when a final tabulation of the replies is finished.
Teaching methods received the most criticism by students, according to a preliminary survey of their answers. Lectures, the most common teaching method at the university, were considered least helpful. The students favored small discussion sections, with quiz and recitation sections second.
Not only students suggested questions for the survey. Faculty members submitted queries they wanted the pupils to answer. Each question was submitted to the psychology and social psychology departments for checking before the questionnaires were distributed.
'Honesty Is the Best Policy' Law School at Exam Time
How would you like to report for a final examination, pick up the questions, wander off to the library or hibernate in a corner with your typewriter for four hours, and at the appointed time slip the finished product under the professor's office door?
Utopia isn't the only place unsupervised exams are given. There is one such place on the K.U. campus —the School of Law.
Students report to the classroom at the appointed examination hour, receive the questions and look them over before they, or the instructors, depart. The exam may be written anywhere in Green hall-library, classrooms, club rooms, court room, offices—and is submitted at an agreed time and place.

Union Sets Record
Wednesday was a big day for the Union Cafeteria. About 2,200 students, the largest crowd in the cafeteria's history, were served, Miss Hermina Zipple, director of the Memorial Union announced today.
The idea is that law students might as well get used to the standard of ethics their profession requires. They are supposed to be sufficiently mature and earnest in purpose to understand the function of finals and enjoy testing their skill. Most law finals are not conducive to collaboration; it couldn't be done.
Enforcement of the system is in the hands of class officers, and the outline on the bulletin board says in effect, "one slip and you're out, completely and permanently."
The system warns all would-be lawyers, in the words of Lincoln,
"If, in your own estimation, you cannot be an 'honest lawyer,' resolve to be honest without being a lawyer."

Austin. Tex. (UP)—Texas is proud to have visitors take back souvenir of the state—but state capitol jantors wish they would quit taking door knobs.
The bronze knobs have the lone star of Texas on them, surrounded by a wreath. All that is needed to remove them is a screwdriver.
Fourth floor doors at the capitol have furnished most of the souvenirs. A watchman now is keeping check on those that remain.

Chinese Press Says Russian Treaty Void
Chungking, (UP)—The Chinese less opened a vehement attack onoviet Russia today, declaring thated army actions in Manchuria hadilled the Sino-Soviet treaty signedast year.
Dropping their previous reticence, 'x of the 12 daily newspapers in hungking printed editorials in a navy anti-Russian tone. They make a treaty with Russia meaningless and a "very grave diplomatic abacle."
The attack on Russia appeared shortly after the official nationalist quarters confirmed that the Chinese civil war has broken out again in southern Manchuria.
Washington, (UP)—The navy said today that it will end training activities at the Norman, Okla., Air technical center June 1, but will continue to operate a seperation center there.
Concrete Houses May Answer Problem
Washington. (UP)—Rep. Wright hatman, D. Tex., told housing administrator Wilson W. Wyatt today, a new machine that builds concrete houses in 24 hours "comes closer to solving the mass housing problem" than anything he had seen before.

Racial Experts Forced Czechs to Germany
Nuernberg. (UP)—The Soviet prosecution at the war crimes trial charged today that German "racial experts" chose the youngest Czech children who survived the Lidice massacre, gave them new names and sent them to Germany to become Germans.
Ninety children were taken from Iduice to a concentration camp at neiseauan after the Germans wiped out the village and all its male inhabitants, the prosecution said. The youngest later were picked out and sent to a Prague hospital, whererach experts picked the best German types for assimilation as Germans.
Brussels. (UP) The Belgian cabinet resigned today, making way for a new government to be shaped by the outcome of a general election which gave King Leopold a slender chance to regain his throne.
Premier Achille Van Acker delivered the cabinet resignation to Prince Charles, Belgian regent and brother of Leopold. It was accepted.

Steel Strike Over GM Hesitates
By United Press
Steel workers began streaming back to their jobs in the nation's mines, mills, and smelter today, four weeks to the day after walking out in support of demands for higher wages.
At 12.01 a.m., the vanguard of 365,000 striking CIO steelworkers returned to their jobs at the U.S. Steel corporation and 12 other companies under agreements granting them wage boosts of $1.48 a day.
The steel settlement reduced the number of striking American workers to 1,118,000,the lowest in nearly a month.

Dr. Smith is assistant chief of the division of research and statistics of National Selective Service headquarters in Washington, D.C. He has been with the Selective Service system since 1943.
"The extensive records of registrants between the ages of 18 and 65 offer enormous research possibilities, for which Dr. Smith has immediate responsibility," Dr. Eldridge said.

Pro Really Should Be A Semi-Pro He Learns Building the 'Easy' Way
All he needed was a foundation— a church foundation.
In Byers, there was a church foundation—the good beginning of an abandoned building. In 1945, while Wilbur's father, a Methodist minsister, was in that town the Methodists decided to build on the foundation.
That's what started Wilbur F. Pro, Engineering senior, down "architect lane."
"I have completed and mailed the plans for a Baptist church in
Wilbur was given the job of drawing up the plans, not because he had designed churches—for he hadn't—but because his father and others thought he could do it. Wilburn drew the plans, and the church is now under construction.
Ellinwood," said Wilbur today. "Now I am working on a house plan."
"Drawing building plans is more than a hobby with me," he explained. "Besides being fun, there is pay in it."
After receiving his degree in mechanical engineering this spring, he expects to get an engineering job, and continue with his building plans.
Wilbur is married, has been in the house construction business with his father, has worked at Boeing (Wichita), and previously attended the University during 1897-38. He is a member of the Tau Delta fraternities and is secretary of the American Society of Mechanical Engineering.
With a smile he added "I want to return to K.U. sometime to get a degree in architecture."
'Leaks' Threaten U.S. Leadership In Atomic Field
Army Concerned Over Recent Loss Of Bomb Secrecy
The United Press was informed reliably that among the six were a member of the National Research Council staff and an official of the Labor Progressive party.
BULLETIN
Montreal. (UP)—The Royal Canadian Mounted Police have arrested six persons in Montreal in connection with the international "leaks" of secret and confidential information, it was learned today.
Washington. (UP)—Army experts today expressed grave concern at what they termed "multiple leaks" of closely guarded atomic bomb secrets.
Maj. J. Leslie R. Groves, chief of the bomb project, declared that the nation has lost more security on the bomb during the past four years than during the entire war time decision by the White House clined to specify source of the leaks.
Other army sources warned that hitherto top secret information is "constantly slipping out," and contended that the leaks endanger this nation's supremacy in the atomic field. They said no adequate local protection for the vital information was now available.
Columnist Drew Pearson said last night that atom bomb secrets did constitute the "confidential information" supplied Russia by a Canadian spy ring, adding that a Russian agent was permitted to sail from Seattle with a suitcase containing Mr. Broad said in his weekly radio broadcast the incident had brought a "show-down" to U.S.-Soviet relations and convinced many officials that "we cannot go on appeasing Russia.
These views were expressed while the Canadian government continued investigation of the disclosure of secret and confidential information to a foreign mission at Ottawa. It was denied at Ottawa that atomic information was involved in the Canadian leaks.
(In London, L. J. Solley, Labor member of Parliament, warned that the Canadian roundup of spies endangered scientific thought and constituted "anti-Soviet propaganda." Others speaking at a conference on science and welfare declared that a factor in the Canadian situation was failure to share scientific knowledge on a world-wide basis.

A Look At Teapot Dome
The current "scandal" involving several members of the administration, and concerning the use of government oil properties, has been compared by many persons, among them the former secretary of the interior, Harold Ikes, to the infamous Teapot Dome intrigue of the early 1920's.
Since the two situations have to some degree the same symptoms of a corrupt liaison between government and big business, an examination of the facts of the Teapot Dome affair provides an interesting background for the present case.
The facts uncovered by a senate investigating committee in 1923 provoked the most unsavory incident of its kind since Grant's time.
Denby, Harding's secretary of the navy, had, with the president's approval, transferred to Secretary of the Interior Fall the administration of certain oil reserves which had been set apart by Taft and Wilson for the exclusive use of the navy.
In 1922, Fall without eeking competitive bids secretly leased a reserve (Teapot Dome) near Casper, Wyo., to H. S. Sinclair, and another and larger reserve at Elk Hills, Calif., to E. T. Doheny.
Though in each case the government received a royalty on the oil extracted, the fluid itself was diverted from its intended purpose to the enormous gains of private commercial interests. However unwise, the transaction bore no sinister aspects until a senate committee discovered that late in 1921 Doheny had loaned Fall $100,000 without interest or security, and that after Fall's retirement from the cabinet in March of 1923, Sinclair had similarly loaned him $25,000.
As far as can be determined, Harding played no part in these transactions. Those close to him have since said that the inevitable scandal and the knowledge that he had not fulfilled his public trust brought on his premature death in office, August 2, 1923.
Sinclair had similarly loaned him $30,000. Government suits ultimately secured the return of the reserves in 1927 and two years later the conviction of Fall for bribery.
It would be foolish as well as unfair to say that the present situation is wholly comparable or even likely to turn out in such a disgraceful way as did the Teapot Dome scandal.
Ickes, however, in his letter of resignation to President Truman on Feb. 13, pointed out that in 1946 as in 1922, the department of the interior had been subjected to outside political pressure, and that Secretary Fall's decision to submit to that pressure brought about the Teapot Dome "incident."
Ickes' charges against Pauley are truly tremendous, since the secretary charged that Pauley offered to arrange for the contributions by California oil men of $300,000 to the Democratic party treasury if the government would release its claim to rich California oceanic oil fields.
This offer, if it were actually made, is nothing less than attempted bribery.
In the current instance, to whatever extent big business has actually sought to exploit the public domain, the affairs of '22 and '46 are similar. O.R.
The Way To Go Home
It happened at the Don Cossack concert last week, as it happens every time.
The minute a concert is over, a few members of the audience reach for their coats and wait tensely for the applause to stop and the performer to leave the stage, so they can beat everyone else to the nearest exit. Some of them even crowd toward the aisles and stand grudgingly through the encores.
They may think that the convention of applauding for encores is a foolish waste of time.
"Why should we sit there clapping for something we didn't especially enjoy, just to inflate some singer's ego?" they may ask.
But the encore has long been an accepted and expected part of a musical program. If an audience shows that it appreciates his efforts, the artist often saves one of his most popular numbers until last, the "something extra for your money." It is not very gratifying to him when a part of the group obviously wants to go home.
If those listeners who are so busy can afford to spend two hours at a concert, surely they can spare two or three extra minutes for the sake of good manners as well as for the sake of those who really want to hear the encores.—M.T.
It's beginning to look as if plans for the student co-op bookstore are going to be put on the shelf.
With air travel approaching the speed of sound, telephone operators will probably think twice before stirring up any more antagonism. In a little while a phone call may be just so much red tape, anyway.
The robin is no longer the earliest sign of spring to most people. Notification comes now in the form of income tax blanks.
Senators Wheeler and Johnson used an especially weak argument against the proposed loan to Britain saying it would look like favoritism to the rest of the world. Perhaps their home states, Montana and Colorado, are so far west that they can't see how close the United States and Britain really are.
A feather to every student and every other Jayhawk fan who booed the referees and the Nebraska players at Friday night's game.
Rock Chalk Talk
By FRANK CURRY
The ice wasn't broken—it melted. Marge Free, Kappa, was coke-sipping with John Conard, returned vet, in the Union fountain when she absent-mindedly lit a match to the lip-sticked off her straw. Later the waitress cleared away the debris and was intrigued by the burning embers. Marge tossed one sultry glance at John. "Hot lips," she murmured.
Wrong train-of thought. Did you know that part of the Navy is gone? Doris Bickel, Harmon Co-op, was voyaging only to Emporia, but when the conductor asked her destination, she answered dreamily, "Great Lakes."

The Sig Alph's really don't need the yellow and black passion-symbol because they're busy educating a very young white cocker named "Gismo." Gismo is a bright pup, but "pups will be pups," you know. Canaries, well, canaries will—too.

There is one particularly hellish instrument designed to produce chest muscles, or else. It isn't so bad, except when one of the springs comes loose and twangs through the

No to Conscription Ex-G.I. Says

This national question is comparable to a contest in which two prizes are offered. First prize is permanent world peace. Second prize is preparedness in case of another war. We must devote our primary argument to winning first prize. Missing that we want a cinch, second. To survive, we must win one of the two. Doesn't that suggest a compromise?

"When I finished with the 87-year-old woman, she didn't have to be sent back to the nursing bottle, but she looked better," he said.
The surgeon has taken tucks in about 50 men's faces, too. Most of them were the theatrical performers, he said, but a few were "dragged in by their wives."
Face-lifting operations are performed under a local anesthetic in the surgeon's office. It requires approximately four hours to take the necessary tucks and stitches.
"All women want to stay young and more and more of them are finding out about face lifting," he said, in an interview. "Eventually, the wrinkle business will be as popular as dental work."

Ward said most of his patients are about 50 years old, but he's had them as young as 30 and as old as 87.
"It's just a tailoring process, like taking in a coat that's too big. Only with faces you have to be especially careful to avoid ruffles."
"I only cut the throats of the older ones," Ward said. "They often have wrinkled necks, and it's the only way to iron them out.
Keep Their Chins Up, Ages Down Plastic Surgeon Has Formula
Chicago, (UP)—Dr. Alexander G. Ward spends most of his time keeping women's chins up and their ages down. Ward, a plastic surgeon, has lifted 5,000 faces in the past 35 years, some of them two or three times. He said he's getting busier every day.
"mania" for operations, he said, and
When face-lifting was introduced early in the century, only theatrical and society people were interested, Ward said. Now even scrubwomen ask him to restore their blush of youth.
Some of his patients have
"mani" for operations, he said, and "take it out" on him.
"One woman comes in every year to see if I can't take a tuck some place."

FRIARRY 18, 1946
On the Fenski with MEG WENSKI
Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen finally won a popular contest when a recent Esquire poll rated him as the No. 2 basketball coach in the nation.
Ward "Piggy" Lambert of Purdure received the crown for the No. 1 man in basketball. Lambert is chief instrument of attack in the Western conference as "Phog" is in the Big Six conference.
Among the players listed in the poll were Hank Lusetti of Stanford at the top, plus Nat Holman, Chuck Hyatt, and George Mikan.
Another Kansas man listed on the honor roll this weekend was George Gear, the freshman from Hutchinson, who is the first Kansas freshman to play regularly on Jayhawk basketball and football clubs since 1905.
Gear, who got a late start in basketball because of football season, wasn't "discovered" on the court until the conference season started. Since then, he has been in the starting lineup several times, alternating with Peck at center.
Although he isn't big—he stands at 5 foot 10 inches, weighs 170 pounds—he faces his opponents with a calm athletic mind and a pair of ready hands. He was captain of the All-State football team last year. He also is maintaining a 2.8 scholastic average for his first year in college.

club. He dropped the caption of first lieutenant when he left the army and now enjoys being addressed as "B.B." El Dorado Junior college was the scene for his early basketball playing and the two years that he played there on championship twice, in addition to best
ketball. Barr clips the nets close in tennis and enjoys Robin Hood's specialtv—archery.
Slated as a guard for the Jay-hawkers, he is a good rebounder and clutch goal shooter. Vital statistics show him to be 6 feet 2 inches and to weigh 180 pounds. He is one of the three married men on the quintet.
Barr is a junior in the School of Engineering.
Hoyt Baker, another 1943 court star, was suited up for the Nebraska game but saw no action.
Jack Ballard, 1943 quintet member,
finished his tour with the M. & O.
Smokies in time to see the Nebraska
game in civiles. Ballard will enroll
this week and will be suited up for

Rough Road Ahead To Big Six Crown
Victories over Oklahoma, Missouri, and Iowa State stand between the Jayhawkers and the Big Six championship for 1946.
The Jayhawkers will meet Missouri at Columbia this weekend, Iowa state in the last home game, Feb. 25, and Oklahoma at Norman for the last conference game on Feb. 28.
By defeating Nebraska 72-30, the Jayhawker quintet set a new Big Six scoring record for a single game. The previous scoring record of 70 points was held jointly by K-State and Oklahoma.
Gene Peterson, who scored 123 points for Nebraska last year, sank the last bucket which broke the scoring record. In previous conference games, Peterson tallied only three points, but after 10 minutes he dropped and had dropped in six field goals and two free throws for 14 points.
Ray Evans, All-American guard in 1943, played on the Kansas court for the first time in three years, and scored 12 points to tie with Owen Peck for fourth place scoring honors. Peck, who started as center, was forced out near the end of the game
Sauer Assistants 'On View' at Dinner
George Sauer, new football mentor for the Jayhawkers, and his assistant coaches will be guests of honor at a Chamber of Commerce dinner, March 6, at the Hotel Eldridge.
The "get acquainted" dinner is public. Coach Sauer has not yet announced his new assistants.
K.U. Tracksters Break Records
The Kansas tracksters were out-scored 65 1-3 to 37 2-3 by the Missouri Tigers at Columbia Saturday, but two record-breaking performances were turned in by Jayhawkers, John Jackson and Tom Scofield.
In the three meets K.U. has participated in this season, Jackson has broken three records in the quarter-mile dash. His leg of the relay also proved interesting and embarrassing for M.U.
Scofield, in his first appearance as a returned veteran, broke his own record in the high jump at 6' 3 1-8".
Leroy Robinson put the shot 46 feet 2 inches for an easy first in that event with Dick Bertuzzi taking a third. This is the best mark turned in by any weight man in the Big Six.
K. U. placed another first in the mile run as Hal Moore came from fifth place in the last 220 yards of the distance to take an easy first.
Mel Stevens, Andy Lunsford, and Bob Laptad paced seconds for Kansas in the broad jump, quarter and half-mile events, respectively. Anderson and Alford tied for third in the pole vault with Payton of Missouri, and Dexter Welton placed third in the two hurdle events.
KU.'s stellar relay team forged ahead in a freakish relay event to win by five yards. Jackson led off for Kansas and on the first turn the baton was accidentally knocked from his hand by the curve judge.
Before the baton was recovered the Missouri man had placed 25 yards between them. Jackson handed the baton to Stevens with about 20 yards between the runners. Fifteen yards were still to be gained as Stevens handed the baton to Dick Shea. Shea narrowed the distance to a mere five yards and Lunsford anchored the team to a startling victory within two seconds of record time.
The thinclads will go to Lincoln for a dual meet with Nebraska this Saturday, with several new veterans and navy transfers from Iowa State as prospective point winners.
The Jayhawkers led the scoring during the entire game and were ahead at the half. 34-16.
Officials called 46 fouls during the game, 20 on Kansas and 26 on Nebraska. Charlie Black and Otto Schnellbacher fouled out of the Kansas line-up late in the second half.

Sheldon, Author,
Seriously III in Topeka
Topka. (UP)—Dr. Charles M. Sheldon, famous Congregational minister and author of "In His Steps," remained unconscious today in a hospital here.
Condition of the 89-year-old minister was regarded as dangerous following cerebral hemorrhages yesterday. Dr. Sheldon had been confined to his home after a fall on the steps of a public building here for some time before he became critically ill.
(One of Dr. Shedon's feats many years ago was the editing of the Topeka Daily Capital for a week "as Jesus Christ would have edited it." Dr. Sheldon has spoken to convocations at K.U., where the Journalism school owns files of the Topeka paper the minister edited.
Telephone Strike Apparently Settled
Philadelphia. (UP)—Settlement of a strike of 800 long lines operators and office workers here of the American Telephone and Telegraph Co., which threatened to develop into a nationwide walkout, was announced today following a meeting of federal conciliators and union and company representatives.
Chicago. (UP)—The arms of a child believed to be Suzanne Degran, 6, who was kidnapped and killed here Jan. 7, were found today in the conduit of an electrical company near her parents' northside home.
Washington. (UP)—President Truhan kept the capital guessing today about his choice of a new secretary of interior but speculation was rapidly narrowing down to three candidates.
Informed sources gave top billing to Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas and Sen. Joseph C. O'Mahoney, as most likely successors to Harold L. Ickes. Oscar L. Chapman, acting interior secretary, was regarded a close third.
Reds Training More Troops, Chinese Say
Chungking. (UP)—Wel-informed government sources said today there were indications that the Red army was training Japanese troops in Manchuria, northern Korea, Sakhalin, and the Kuriles for possible future use.
There was no sign, these sources said, that Russia planned to repatriate Japanese troops from those areas occupied by Soviet Far Eastern forces.
Washington (UP)—Chairman John S. Wood, of the house Unamerican Activities committee said today that the FBI is "in the thick of" the investigation of a spy ring originally revealed by the Canadian government.
Oklahoma City. (UP)—A freak windstorm that struck near here late yesterday lifted a cow over a fence and set her down without injury.
A Walk Negotiators admitted they were getting nowhere in daily arguments over the original issues that caused the walkout of 175,000 CIO United Auto Workers last Nov. 21.
The cow was tied in the barn. The barn itself was blown against a steel wire fence and destroyed. Afterward the cow was found on the other side of the fence—still tied to the plank to which she had been tethered inside the barn.
Detroit. (UP)—Progress toward an agreement to end the three-month-old General Motors strike slowed to a walk today.
Carpenter Wins I.S.A. Election For President
Lorraine Carpenter, College sophomore, was elected president of the Independent Student Association at an open meeting of independents last night in the men's lounge of the Union building.

A joint meeting of the ISA council and the Independents council will be held Thursday night to discuss the possibility of a merger of the two organizations, Jack Nichols, the retiring president, announced.
Rabbi Relates Treatment by Nazis
Rabbi Ernest I. Jacob, Springfield Mo., visited the campus today and was to speak at a general meeting of the Y.W.C.A.at 4:30 this afternoon in the Union men's lounge.

New students who missed the psychological and aptitude examinations Friday may take them at 9 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Saturday March 9, in Hoch auditorium, C. B. Althaus, of the Vocational Guidance bureau, announced today.
"I need a 50 cc. beaker, George, and a bottle of HCl," a baritone voice sounded through the window of the chemistry storeroom.
Makeup Exams March 9
The council roll has been riddled by the resignations or departure from school of 14 of its 30 members during the past semester. Only five of the
"I just broke a flask, George," piped a freshman girl. "May I have another?"
That makes 5,002—5,003, George thought, trying to count the number of faces he had seen through the window until finally the figure reached such vast proportions that he gave up. through the year, some now grand
tittened.
George began his work for the University in 1891, in the building which now houses the journalism department. Since then, his black rubber apron, white jacket, and striped cap became familiar to the thousands of students he served
through the year, some now grandmothers and grandfathers of today's students.
"In all the years that I was here, I saw no great change in the students," George says. "They may be a little younger. But there are some students who naturally have strong personalities and they just demand service with a smile."
George, as he was known to his students, recently retired as head of the storeroom. He always served a smile with his keys, chemicals, and apparatus. He could handle hundreds of students specially because of the systematic arrangement he kept of records and files and ceiling-high shelves neatly labeled and partitioned.
It's a pleasure to serve them, always was the motto of George R. King, who for more than 54 years aided students by dispensing beakers or flasks, acids and bases, and other supplies from the storeroom in the chemistry department.
Many who remember that smile also recall the fragile little birds which George liked to blow out of glass and give away as souvenirs to his visitors or prize customers.
Spry despite his 75 years, George takes a two-mile walk every morning before breakfast. Since retiring, he comes back to the University now and then to visit the storeroom, seeing new faces at the window and perhaps recalling earlier days when he himself answered the call for: "a rubber apron, please, and a bunsen burner."
vacancies have been fille
The position of representative at-large, formerly occupied by Eugenia Hepworth, was left vacant when Miss Hepwort took over the gavel of Mary Jo Cox Youngblood, upon her failure to return to school because of marriage.
The other eight vacancies will be filled by petition, made directly to Miss Hepworth and filed within the next nine days. Petitions are made by the organization to which the resigned member belonged, and the prospective candidate must be from the same district.
The first vacancies appeared at the beginning of the fall semester, when Charles Moffett, Patricia Graham, and Floyd Baker did not return to the University. These positions were filled by Charles Hall, College; Helen Stark, Inter-Dorm Council; and Robert Witt, Inter-Hall Council.
Other vacancies which have been filled were left by Lloyd Eisenhower, Inter-Fraternity council, replaced by Glenn Warner; Sarah Marks, College, filled by Shirley Corlett; Marjorie Bentley, Cooperative Housing association, filled by Carroll McCue.
The nine vacancies yet to be filled were caused by the resignations of Jean Templeton, Fine Arts, Education, and Pharmacy; Leonard Brown, Dean Corder, and Cecil Langford, Engineering and Architecture; Mary Margaret Gaynor, Shirley Corlett, and Jean McIntire, College; and Dolores Custer, Pan-Hellenic association.
Chapel Dedication Set for April 2
Danforth chapel will be formally dedicated April 2 at an all-student convocation in Hoch auditorium, Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced today. Kenneth I. Brown, president of Dennison university, Granville, Ohio, will speak at the dedicatory ceremonies.
Construction of Danforth chapel was made possible through the generosity of William H. Danforth, of St. Louis, his friends, and faculty members. It was given so that students might have a place for meditation and worship on the campus, and also be used for special religious services.
Fourteen Danforth scholarships are given each year on 14 different campuses to graduates to enter student activities and promote religious worship. Jeanne Ackley, Columbus, Ohio, is the Danforth fellow at the University of Kansas. She will participate in the dedication.

Labor At Home
Those who are forced to work their way through college are often praised, verbally, for their hard-working qualities, their brave battle for education, and that characteristic they allegedly possess called intestinal fortitude.
Commendation is heartwarming, but it won't pay a housebill, or buy books. Couldn't something besides talking be done to help working students? A minimum wage of 35 cents an hour seems a pitifully low price for student labor.
Employers, on and off the Campus have always bought student labor cheaply. In the pre-war depression era students were hired for as little as 20 cents an hour, because there were plenty of students who needed money.
Then wages, along with living costs, rose during the war. Thirty-five cents became the minimum standard for student wages. Students did not complain, because they knew they could get another job if conditions were too unfair. Employers objected to the students' fickleness toward their jobs, but seldom paid any student more than fifty cents an hour. It wasn't necessary—even then.
Now, the sudden rush of veterans to the campus has raised the old problem of surplus student labor. High food and housing costs make government checks inadequate, and veterans with wives and families must compete for the low paid positions. They find that they have little choice in finding a job. They become, for a few hours daily, janitors, waiters, baby-sitters, or, if they have the proper education, lab assistants and helpers.
This paradoxical situation presents on one hand the student whose labor is a cheap commodity. Yet living costs are high and time is valuable to the student and to his grade-point average.
These students are chagrined at the humiliatingly low price put on their services. They are disappointed with the choice of positions offered them.
Such working students do not ask for charity, they ask only for higher wages. They wonder sometimes just how much effort a college education must be worth. They wonder if they are not paying too much, in effort, for education at this University.
And on the other hand, there are the employers who still feel that they are being generous by even hiring students. After all, the student's time is cut up by his classes, study, and finals; his interest is usually not on his job, but on his study. Employers feel that an hour of a student's time is seldom worth more than 50 cents.
Wherever right lies, it seems that the present employment situation, aggravated as it is by the influx of new students who expect to support themselves at least in part, is serious enough to warrant some special attention from the administration. F. C.
Sav It With Letters
Perhaps you are thinking that the Daily Kansan always gets the last word. Even though you are new on the campus, you may have another angle on the YM, or you think the women's lounge is a silly waste of money, or you feel fraternities are hypocritical about the beating reform.
You'd like to put your two cents in on the other side, but you talk at best to 15 students a day while 5,000 see the Daily Kansan. In other words, it seems as though the paper gets not just the last word, but the only word.
And it would, too, if it were a dogmatic organ of some private group. But it isn't. The Daily Kansan is what it says it is—the newspaper of the students.
On any issue, the Daily Kansan expresses its viewpoint—a viewpoint which concurs with that of at least part of the student body, since the Daily Kansan staff members are students. But the expression of this opinion is not intended to exclude all others from the columns of the paper. The theoretically it only starts the ball rolling, solicits other views. The paper is a student forum, designed to present all phases of student thought.
And your thought—how does it reach others through the Daily Kansan? The answer is in a letter addressed to the editor-in-chief and dropped in the campus mail or left on the editor's desk in the Journalism building. The letter should be fairly short—200 words is a good round number,and it must be signed with the author's full name and address. However, names are withheld from publication upon request.
The editorial staff always reserves the right to edit letters that are too long or not to print them at all. But seldom is a reason good enough to keep a student letter out of the paper.
So the Daily Kansan doesn't need to get the last word. It's always yours for the asking.
About to muff their opportunity to provide a site for the world capital of the UNO, 2,500 residents of Fairfield and Westchester counties in Connecticut and New York are complaining about the "general realignment of business, real estate values, and job opportunities," with which they would be faced. Perhaps the American ideal is truly "life, liberty, and pursuit of property."

According to Winchell, Colonel Peron has expanded his Argentine police from 6,000 to 60,000 and given them all tommy guns. Considering the rate of demobilization of the U.S. army, that 60,000 will soon be a fair-sized army.

Good impression? Way back in the dark ages, that is the Sunday be fore final week, the Tri Delt's called a meeting at a local alum's home. Thinking that it was just to be a chummy little get-together, Betty Mallonee and Joan Manners decided to attend in full final week regalia with something added for good in dressing into the mending in jeans, pumps, anklets, plaid shirts, tons of makeup, and flowered scarfs, the pledges were aghast to find two national officers serenely sipping tea.
Smoke gets in their eyes. Battenfeld boys have restricted Bill (Radar) Worwag from flapping his ears because they create quite a breeze especially when the smokers are enjoying their after dinner coffin flicker or that Bill could actually take off if there were enough wind!

Fresh frosh. Industrious Calvin Subera, 1334 Ohio, new frosh from Caldwell, wanted to really be on the ball and start his college career in A-1 condition. Since his first class was band at 7:30 a.m. Calvin set his alarm for 6 a.m. and went to bed at 7:30 p.m.—oh, so eager! Later he awoke to find that it was nine o'clock. Calvin frantically dressed dashed out of the house, and was practically in Hoch before realizing that it was moonglow overhead and not sunlight!
Befuddled. After the enrollment struggle, Carolyn Keith, Alpha Chi was in the usual college daze. She dozed through two chemistry lectures before realizing that she wasn't in her physics class.
One, two, three, up-ug. Yes, the girls of Locksley halls are reducing, but it isn't because they really need it. Reducing is a necessity only because the girls are sleeping on 30-inch wide navy beds and they don't relish the idea of a plunge to the floor.

(Director, University Health Service)
One atomic bomb on an enemy city shocked the world by the magnitude of its destructive power. But the resulting property damage and 130,000 casualties were only a ripple compared to the wave of cripping veineral diseases that sweeps the world every year.
More than a million cases of gonorrhea and syphilis—leading venereal diseases—are reported annually in the United States alone. No knowing how many more go unreported and untreated to serve as a perpetuating reservoir of human misery and death.
Wars propagate venereal diseases. In spite of heroic measures to control these scourges, gonorrhea tops the list of infectious diseases in the armed forces, and syphilis is not far behind. Youths are the most victims of both gonorrhea and syphilis are highest in the ages 15-24 years. This makes it a problem of the college age group—at K.U. as well as elsewhere.
All gonorrhea is contracted by sexual intercourse; only occasional cases of syphilis are acquired otherwise—from a common drinking cup, congenitally and accidently through skin abrasions. Gonorrhea infection makes itself known within a few days of exposure to acute and often very uncomfortable symptoms so that the victim seeks relief. Syphilis more rapidly amylase injury is painless, often passes unnoticed, and the infection may advance to the secondary stage or further before it is recognized.
With early and adequate treatment most cases of both diseases can be cured, but a relatively small percent, representing several thousand cases
Newcomers Welcome At Midweek Dance
New students will be introduced to the University tradition of Mid-wave dance when Charlie Steeper's "Serenaders" play Wednesday in the lounge of the Memorial Union. The dance will be held from 7:30 to 9 pm.
This Midweek dance, the first of the second semester, will be dedicated to the new students.
The Midweek dances are sponsored by Union Activities and are planned by the social committee, the chairmanship of Joan Woodward.
The third largest city in Kansas is Topeka, founded in 1840.
annually, suffer residual disability resulting in sterility, spontaneous abortions, chronic infections, damage to the heart and blood vessels and nervous and mental changes later in life.
Advances in the treatment of both diseases offer hopes for more "cures," but the fantastic claims for quick and sure cures publicized widely in recent years are not well founded in fact. Adequate treatment with the sulfonilimides is effective in gonorrhea; the walking two day treatments have only served to arouse false hopes and develop strains of infection resistant to the "sulfa" drugs.
Penicillin properly administered is now in the ascendancy. But neither of these "miracle" medicines offers quick and easy cures, nor anywhere near the 90 per cent curcs originally reported. The rapid treatment of syphilis with penicillin combined with other medicines cuts down the time element but the final results cannot be appraised for many years.
Emphasis must be shifted from treatment to prevention. Control of the spread of the venereal diseases remains the leading problem. The biggest problem in the control of venereal diseases is extra-marital intercourse. Putting aside the moral issue, stamping out the scourge of venereal diseases is a major social and public health problem that can be solved only by education.

On the Fenski with MEG WENSKI
Meet Your Team. The big guy wearing number 21, who netted 14 points in the wind-up of the Nebraska game and whose last bucket boosted the Jayhawkers to a new Big Six scoring record, is genial Gene Peterson of Millard, Nebraska.
A sophomore pre-medical student, Gene is the tallest cager to wear the red and blue since Al Wellhausen back in 1937. Both measure 6 feet 7 inches. The 18-year-old Nebraska was a record-breaker in high school, hitting 42 points in a single game and averaging 25 per game during his senior year. Last season, as a freshman with the Nebraska Cornhuskers, he was second high scorer in the Big Six.
He's happy about the transfer from Lincoln to Lawrence, and says he likes the University "very much." As for the women of the campus, all Pete will say is, "I don't like blondes very well," but concerning his dinner table favorite he's more positive. The towering 215-pounder says, with a hint of a blush, "strawberries."
From the early minutes of the game, when he went scooting down the free throw lane to count two

points, until he went out with a minor injury in the second half, Owen "The Voice" Peek sparked the Jayhawker at the Jayhawker position in their record-breaking performance against the Huskers Friday night. A letterman forward during the 1945
season, 20-year-old Owen is noted for his fiery, scrappy brand of basketsal as wel as for his stratospheric vocal cords. He attended Wyandotte High school in the old home town of Kansas City.
From all indications, he enjoys himself at least 99 per cent of the time. He's a College junior, and statistics say 5 feet 9 inches and a solid 170 pounds. Favorite dish—yeah, man—apple dumplings.

Amateur Boxer Dies After Bout
Perry was battered about the ring in the first round of his amateur bout with Howard Schwan, 22, a sailor stationed at Great Lakes, Ili. He apparently was saved by the bell from a knockout.
In 25 seconds of the second round he went down from a right to the body.
An inhalator squad was called after Perry's handlers were unable to revive him. He was pronounced dead a few minutes later.

Music Students Need Practice Pianos
Other K.U. staff members attending are Prof. Waldemar Gelch, who will head a violin forum Saturday, and E. Thayer Gaston, associate professor of music education.
Former University persons attending the meeting include Melvin H.

Otto Meissner, former director of K.U. public school music; Karl Krueger, K.U. graduate, now directing the Detroit symphony orchestra.
All that money you put into that new piano for Junior to practice on won't be wasted after all.
Because of the increased enrollment in music in the School of Fine Arts, it is difficult to find practice for students in piano and organ.
Dean D. M. Swarthout has requested that city persons willing to rent practice time on a piano in their home call the Fine Arts office at their earliest opportunity.
Certain churches of the city have offered practice time on organs.
Plans are being made to expand practice room facilities by the erection soon of additional rooms in the gallery level of Hoch auditorium.

Phone, Rail Strikes Hover on Horizon
Two more crippling strike threats faced the nation today as the railroads and telephone operators voted to call nation-wide work stoppages unless wage demands were met.
The National Federation of Telephone Workers has authorized the calling of the greatest telephone strike in history, but President Joseph A. Beine declared that the federation was "willing to meet the company more than half way to avert a strike."
Daily Kansan Photo by "Hank" Brown
A nationwide strike call to the engineers and trainmen who run the 300 railroads almost certainly will be issued within 10 days, union officials disclosed.
The big question mark was whether the order would set an immediate strike date, tying up all the nation's main railroads, or fix a date 30 days later, which would allow time to negotiate union demands for a 25 per cent wage increase and operational changes.
Americans Banned From Czechoslovakia
Frankfurt. (UP) — American military and civilian personnel have been banned from Czechoslovakia under a new order issued by the Prague government, U.S. army headquarters announced today.
No explanation was given for the surprise order, which stipulated that, effective Feb. 17, no clearance would be granted to travel to or within Czechoslovakia.
Washington. (UP) President Truman today signed into law the "Employment Act of 1946," a compromise employment measure which he said was a start toward a healthy economy although he had hoped for a stronger bill.
Washington. (UP) A new program for stimulating the production of lower-priced clothing was disclosed today by economic stabilization chief Chester Bowles.
He did not go into details but said the new program would not only assure a larger supply of clothing but also would result in improvement of quality.
A-Bomb Production Still U.S.'Trade' Secret
Washington. (UP) — Secretary of State James F. Byrnes said today the secret "know-how" of the atom bomb is still in the exclusive possession of the United States government.
Byrnes told a news conference specifically that neither the Canadian nor the British governments ever were given the secret of atom bomb production during the war.
Consequently, he said, that secret could not be involved in any international espionage plot in Canada.
Topka. (UP) —War Secretary Robert Patterson today wired Gov. Andrew Shoeppel, promising maximum cooperation in placing unused army housing facilities at the disposal of veterans, single or married, who are attending college.
The Kansas governor said he would continue to study means of having the empty army housing units moved from abandoned posts to college areas where they are needed.
The promise of assistance involved no authority to move such housing units from government sites. Veteran students would commute from abandoned army posts to colleges.

K-State Blaze Causes $100,000 Damage
Manhattan (UP) -Damage from a fire which last night destroyed the veterinary hospital at Kansas State college today was estimated at $100,- 000 by college authorities.
Origin of the blaze, discovered about 8:30 pm. by a Puerto Rican student, Rosendo Cordero, had not been determined. College authorities said the building, erected in 1923, was not insured.
The fire started in the straw loft of the three-story building. A fire signal blown on the power plant whistle on the Kansas State campus brought hundreds of fire-fighting students to the scene.
Students and instructors led animals which were hospitalized in the building to safety. Many of the animals were blindfolded before students could lead them from the burning building.
Students, many of them World War II veterans from the campus trailer village, fought the flames with chemical extinguishers and a two-inch hose until the Manhattan fire department and a fire fighting unit from nearby Ft. Riley arrived at the scene. The blaze was brought under control shortly after midnight.
A cow which was too ill to walk, was carried from the second floor of the animal hospital on a door by 16 students.
Many laboratory records were saved from the flaming building and after entrances to the hospital had been closed because of the intensity of the blaze students broke in windows to secure personal laboratory equipment and books. ___
A tentative cast for the play, "Hay Fever" to be presented for two performances in Fraser theater on March 7 and 8 was announced today.

No Stone,
No Workmen,
No Pavilion
The dance pavilion, west of Potter lake, is still only a concrete slab surrounded by sticks indicating where the picnic ovens will be. The wiring for the lights has been installed.
"If you know where we can get a skilled stone mason, you know when the dance pavilion will be completed," Henry Werner, dean of student affairs, said today.
Do you like to dabble in gravel? If so, you may dance earlier this spring by helping bring the dance pavilion to completion.
stated If difficulties of obtaining material and the shortage of labor can be eliminated, the dance pavilion will be ready for the use of University students this spring.
Further construction has been delayed until the architect's designs for the ovens are received and the necessary stone material arrives, Ogden Jones, water laboratory geologist in charge of the project, stated.
Frye to Illinois Meeting
Frye of Minors Board Dr. John C. Frye, assistant state geologist, is in Urbana, Ill., this week, attending the annual meeting of the American State Geologists association.
Friday Is Deadline For Course Changes
Friday is the last day that students enrolled in the College or Liberal Arts may make changes in their enrollments. College enrollees who wish to add to their program, drop courses, or change sections should do so after Friday, Dean Paul B. Lawson announced today.

The three men members will be sworn in next week.
Six new zones have been suggested to provide necessary parking space for approximately 175 new applicants for parking permits, Emily Stacey, parking chairman, told the council last night.
New zone areas include space along Mississippi street, beside the Union building, Lillac Lane, the road off West Campus behind Snow Hall, and the driveway to Military General Hospital. Sozee said that the lot behind Robinson gymnasium, zone 7, might be made more accessible.
"If we cannot find enough room for all students who have applied for permits," she explained, "we will have to face those considered least necessary."
In commenting on plans for establishing a combined bookstore and recreation room in the Union building, Henry Werner, dean of student affairs, said that a small retail bookstore and a larger recreation room would be possible if book storage space can be found elsewhere.
No decision concerning the recreation room and its location can be made until the final report of the bookstore committee is made in two weeks, Dolores Custer, recreation chairman, said.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Student Newspaper of the UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Member of the Kansas Press Association, National Editorial Association, and the Associated Collegiate Press. Represented by the National Advertising Service, 420 Madison Ave., New York City.
Student Newspaper of the UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Mail subscription: $3 a semester, $4.50 a year, plus 2% tax (in Lawrence add $1 a semester postage). Published in Lawrence, Kan., ever afternoon during the school year except Saturdays and Sundays, University holidays, and examination periods. Entered as second class matter Sept. 17, 1910, at the Post Office at Lawrence, Kan., under act of March 3, 1879.
Book of the Month
University students got a bargain last week. Many of you didn't realize it, some of you even complained, but in paying $6.21 for an activity book you received a passport to events for which regular admission tickets would have totaled around $21.82.
Basketball games, concerts, lectures, the Daily Kansan, student government—many things you may have taken for granted—are provided by the sum which seemed large when you wrote that check at the business office.
The athletic department got $1.90. In return, you saw the Nebraska basketball game Friday and will see the Iowa State game next week. True, you paid an extra dollar for your basketball season ticket, but a ticket at regular prices would have cost $4.50. Also, you can see the Kansas Relays, which will cost non-students about a dollar, and varsity baseball games.
Here's what happened to your $6.21, after the federal government had taken 62 cents for tax, and the state 9 cents:
The free class gets Your activity book will admit you to Owen Lattimore's lecture next month. Otherwise you would pay $2. Twenty-one cents from the activity fee goes to the lecture series fund.
There also will be concerts by the University band, orchestra, a capella choir, and glee clubs for which the outsider will pay 50 cents an event. Ten cents from the activity fee helps to pay for the band's music and transportation to out-of-town events.
Forty-two cents went to the concert course which, besides the Don Cossack chorus, will include this semester Robert Casadesus and James Melton. These, at regular prices, cost $2.44 or $3.05 each.
The glee clubs get 7 cents for essentially the same purposes.
Twenty-nine cents will help cover the cost and admit you to two dramatic productions to which regular admissions will be 50 cents.
Eleven cents partially finances University debate trips.
One dollar pays for your Daily Kansan. A regular subscription would cost you $3.
The All Student Council gets 35 cents which is used to underwrite the K-book, student directory, Jayhawker, varsity dances, and similar activities. The Council also supplies funds for Mortar Board, the WEC, and other campus organizations.
Ninety-five cents from each activity fee goes for the up-keep of the Memorial Union building. Except for what profits there are from the cafeteria and fountain, the Union is supported entirely by the students through this fee. It receives no University money.
The remaining 10 cents goes into a reserve fund to be used for printing the activity books. By petition, money has also been taken from this fund for special student events, such as the Dandelion Day dance.
Some students argue that they aren't interested in every University function, and they shouldn't be forced to buy tickets for all of them.
But even the bookworm is interested in at least one type of activity. And it would probably cost him as much, attended independently, as the price of his compact opportunity to partake of every attraction—M.T.
A Time and a Place
With the beginning of each new semester old students traditionally shower the new with torrents of advice, some good and some bad. One sound suggestion usually brought forth, however, is that of getting organized—constructing a simple schedule of each day's activities and sticking to it.
Every little chore which recurs periodically can be assigned its own little niche in the schedule and then be forgotten until that time rolls around.
Will you send out the laundry at 8 a.m. Monday or 10:15 a.m. Saturday? It really doesn't matter; just don't forget. Will you study French in the library at 10:30 every morning or go to the Union for a coke? Then, too, you know that algebra is going to take an hour every day. When will you find time for that? And will you get haircuts on the 1st and 15th of every month or just wait until your friends say, "My god, you're shaggy"?
Of course your schedule will be flexible. You're NOT in the army now. But a simple schedule of those things which must be done and an honest effort to follow it will prove profitable.
It is a question of who is to be master of your life, you or your activities.
We wonder why the increased enrollment this semester wouldn't justify an extension of the time in which fees may be paid without penalty. Four and a half days is hardly adequate to accommodate this semester's 5,000 students at the business office. Many found it impossible to spend the hours it would have taken to "stand it out" and yet this week they were fined when they presented their fee cards and money. We know there is a University rule regarding the time limit on fee payment, but this new situation seems logically to demand a new rule.
Irate British housewives howled last week when Sir Ben Smith, minister of food, announced that no more dried eggs would be imported to England, because, so Sir Ben said, he just couldn't find the 100 million dollars to pay for them. Some Britishers observed that they spent some 67 million dollars last year for American movies and screamed "We don't want Sinatra. We want food." Don't worry, Frankie. At least they still sk-reem about you.
Rock Chalk Talk By BUNNY LAWLER
Feeings hurt, fella's? What a weekend for the old Psi's! We've never seen such a bunch of neglected individuals. Cut of the masses of men present at the Chi Omega valentine party Friday night, only two were Phi Kappa Psi's, and it will all off, those two were pledges. Dick Sevier and Bob Cook(y) (invited by Regina McGeorge and Ann Alexander). But to get back to this tale of crime and retribution, the rest of the夜ighted brotherhood found a chance to even the score when they were all invited over to help entertain Chi O rushes on Saturday afternoon. They went . . . carrying a sign, which assumed bill-board proportions, and which proclaimed in bold letters:
"Both Pei's had fun;
We're here for crumbs!"
But, on the other hand (preferably left), "Put that ring on my finger, put that frat pin on my blouse." This is Get Your Man Week at the Pi Beta Phi house. If you notice that the entire Pi Phi chapter looks a little smeared around the lipstick line, be not dis-encouraged. It's just because the front stairs had quite a work-out, and the 'angels' an extended opportunity to practice for the time when the right man comes along, with what one pinning and three "ringings," all in a row.
Worse than a mile. At the bowling alleys downtown four V-12's were tense while one of their number tried to pick off a lone pin with his second ball. It was a close miss—heartbreakingly close. The others were consoling him when a loud voice rang out from the end of the alley. It was the pin boy. "Too bad, old man," he shouted.
Tom Bailey, Phi Gam, and alum Barbara Winn starred in the pinning, while Bill Bridges, Glenn Berger, and Lt. Gus d Zerega placed rings on the respective fingers of Dorothy Dahlin, Eugenia Hepworth (if I were president of the S.C., could I get married) and Dorthea Stodder.
I'll play ball. Hearing Coach Sauer Friday night ask every able-bodied person on the campus to go out for football next season, we assumed that he meant only men, but it seems that Jody Toepfer, Ginny Rhoads, Sunny Jones, and Joan Stewart took him literally. They haven't spoken to the coach yet, but we would like hereby to recommend them to him. These four practiced football with V-5's Jerry Andruske, Jay Whitefield, and Jim Hurple all Saturday afternoon! However, taking a practical point of view, the girls probably deserve Purple Hearts more than letters.
A honeymoon in — the library?
Don't ever tell us the old alma mater hasn't got a heart. Returned veteran Dean Ostrum, Sigma Nu, and wife "Sari" Pierpont Ostrum, Gamma Phi, are currently enjoying a honeymoon, while the papa of the pair is enrolled in school. You see, they were married immediately before he went overseas, and now he is on terminal leave. But not to waste a moment's time, conscientious Dean enrolled for this semester, requesting that he be allowed to miss classes and enjoy his 45 days with his wife. Request granted.
And we are now accepting bets as to which will get the most attention—Sari, or the reading list the College assigned him to complete by the time he resumes class attendance.
How Would Christ Have Edited a Newspaper? Dr. Sheldon Tried to Answer in Topeka Daily
How would Jesus Christ have edited a newspaper?
A symposium centered about the question "Has the prohibition law been successful in Kansas?" was printed one day, with various Topeka citizens giving their ideas.
New students interested in Student Union activities are asked to visit the Activities office, in the basement of the Union building, Thursday and Friday afternoons, Algeria. They will be assigned to committee work in the fields which they prefer, she added.
Dr. Sheldon's recent illness recalled these particular issues to Prof. L. N. Flint, of the journalism department, who has the complete file.
One of the most unusual experiments in journalistic history was conducted in 1900 when Dr. Charles M. Sheldon, author of "In His Steps," edited the Topeka Daily Capital, as an answer to that question.
Although the national and local news was printed, the main stress was given to religious and reform articles. Prayers and even hymns often appeared on the front page. "The Bible: the Basis of Our Christian Civilization" was the lead story in Dr. Sheldon's last issue. Other top stories were concerned with usury, the Sabbath, money, the evil of drink, and smoking.
Instead of printing any actual crime news, Dr. Sheldon included articles about the cost of crime and prison reform.
In regard to advertising Dr. Shelldon's idea was "to give the reader a clean, straightforward statement of sale of goods for their actual value." He chose advertising according to that standard.
Dr. Sheldon began his week on Tuesday because he did not want to work any of the employees on Sunday for the Monday paper.
Committee Positions Open In Student Union Activities
Committees open to membership include social, secretarial, forums, publicity, intramurals, administration, clubs and organization, and business, Miss Cornwell said.
The day after Dr. Sheldon's week an editorial in the Topeka Daily Capital stated that "the estimate placed upon Dr. Sheldon's experiment will generally be that it was a failure as a newspaper, and not above the average as a religious paper. The legitimate work of a newspaper is above all else to give the news."
Nevertheless, circulation of the Capital increased during the week as thousands of persons over the United States wanted to read the results of Dr. Sheldon's experiment.

News of Sunflower Village
By GEORGE RIPPEY
--education A swimming meet will be held March 20 and 21. Deck tennis is scheduled to begin in two weeks. Other sports selected by intramural managers yesterday include table tennis doubles, tennis doubles, and softball.
Like everyone else on the hill, the gang from Sunflower came through enrollment week a bit bewildered and with tired arches but most of us are beginning to look somewhat normal again.
That first week was a little more rugged too for the "old man" as they wade that early morning charge on "Still Mount Oread." That in itself wasn't so bad—but the climb up the hill, combined with the mad dash across the prairie at the village to catch the bus, reminded us that our hairlines are a little further from our noses than they used to be.
However, some good line charging by the stalwarts of the Chancellor's office brought good results and the present bus schedules and routes are such that we should make out in fine shape.
Just in case some may have missed the new schedules in Monday's paper—buses leave Sunflower for the campus at 7:45 a.m. and 8:15 a.m. and leave the campus for Sunflower at 8:35 p.m. During at the campus takes place at the intersection immediately west of the main library.
'This is the day to wrap your Daily Kansan around your finger when you go home as a reminder to the better half' about the meeting of all the wives of students to be held Thursday night at 8:00 p.m.
The meeting will be held in the USO auditorium at the Village and the chairman is hoping for an overflow turnout. This is the chance or the women to organize for the activities and our co-chairs but they won't it and we might as well ease it. So send em over to the gathering.
We must retain interest in each other at the village so if something good happens to you or someone you know let me hear about it—items of interest are always welcome at 304 Lexington, Sunflower—get the whole family in print and, if there are additions to the family, tell the world about it in the Kansan.
News from the Sunflower end of the line is just a wee bit scarce this week due to the many items which have occupied our time (mostly filling out or signing something or trying to get into a bookstore) but we'll slide our time and see if we can drag in some hot news next time.
Althaus Represents Kansas
At School Board Meeting
Dr. C, B. Althaus, executive secretary of the Kansas State association of school boards, and Lloyd Houston, president, of Lawrence, will attend the national meeting to be held in Springfield, Ill.. March 14 and 15.
Seven districts will hold meetings this spring. A monthly news bulletin for school boards will be sent according to committee plans. A possible legislative program to raise funds for the adequate financial support of schools will be considered.

Rabbi Stresses 'Religious Sameness"
"It would be so much easier if people would not look at the differences between the Jewish and Protestant religions, but would emphasize the similarity." Rabbi Ernest I. Jacob said yesterday at the general meeting of the Y.W.C.A. in the Union.
The Rev. Dr. Edwin F. Price, dean of the School of Religion, introduced Rabbi Jacob.
Rabbij Jacob pointed out that the Protestant and Jewish religions are similar in that both read the same Bible, believe in one ethical God, and have more or less identical ethical ideas.
One difference, continued the rabbi, is that Judaism denies the need of a mediator between the inrabbi is a teacher, not a priest and that Judaism stresses the essential goodness of man.

U.S. Has Too Many Farmers, Ise Says
7 3 17
America's "too many farmers" may expect their prosperity to last two to five more years, Prof. John Ise, of the economics department, declared in a Fraser hall lecture last night.
His talk, the seventh in an "America at Peace" series, was on "The American Farm Problem."
The government should "seek to reduce" the number of farmers, "instead of enabling more to stay in the business by paying them crop restriction subsidies." Ise declared.
He proposed seven other points for remedying farm problems-maintaining full employment without raising wages, government purchase of eroded marginal land and its return to grass or forest, immediate adoption of a Missouri Valley Authority, cooperative marketing of farm products, reduction of tenancy, lower tariffs, and elimination of export subsidies.

Mutiny, Rioting Trouble British
Bombay. (UP)—The British dispatched strong navy, army, and air reinforcements to Bombay today to help put down a mutiny by sailors of the Indian navy who threatened to open fire from warships they seized in the harbor here.
Vice-Adm. John Henry Godfrey, commander of the Indian navy, admitted that a "state of open mutiny prevailed." He broadcast a warning to the mutineers that the government would put down the insurrection at all cost, even the destruction of the fleet itself if necessary.
Cairo. (UP) -Anti-British rioting flared through Cairo today with inflamed Egyptian bands storming all British military establishments in the center of the city and 130 casualties were reported in only one of the many bloody skirmishes.
Coal Industry Strike Rumbles in Mines
Savannah, Ga. (UP)—Some 250 delegates from most of the countries of the world will assemble at the General Golteorhe hotel at Savannah March 8, to work out the physical make-up of the Bretton-Woods International Financial agreements.

Honolulu. (UP)—Dale L. Hill, Wichita, was one of six U.S. noncommissioned marine officers who were demoted to privates for protesting alleged slowness of marine corps demobilization, marine headquarters announced today.
The commanding officer of the Pacific marine force said the action was taken not as punishment but because "the individuals concerned demonstrated their unfitness to be non-commissioned officers."
Registrar office records show that Hill never has been a student at this University.
Paris, (UP)—Paris reporters overran the Rue Gallande from end to end last night in a vain hunt for non-existent septuplets.
The search was touched off by a report of the British exchange telegraph from London that the wife of a pubkeeper had given birth to four boys and three girls. The report was untrue.

Russia Admits A-Bomb Spying
London. (UP)—Radio Moscow acknowledged today that the Soviet union has obtained supposedly confidential information on Canadian defenses but denounced Canada's current spy hunt as an "upfriendly act."
Moscow said the information obtained dealt with atomic energy, radio location and "similar matters."
The information, Russia said, came from Canadian citizens.
Russia and Britain traded angry counter charges over the Soviet spying and informed diplomatic observers warned that relations between the two countries were approaching the crisis stage. However, Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin told Commons today that he could conceive of no circumstances in which Russia and Britain would go to war.
But, it said this information was "not required by Soviet organs as higher and more technical achievements had been obtained in the well-known American publication 'Atomic Energy'"

Four Score and Five for Stevens, K.U.'s Champion Botanist-Baker
The strains of "Happy birthday to you" greeted W. C. Stevens, former head of the botany department, when he opened his eyes to his 85th year this morning.
to his 84th year this month.
Delighted by the song from his family and remarking about the spring-like weather, Mr. Stevens immediately began looking forward to spring field trips.
For more than 60 years, the Mr. Stevens was connected with the University, first as a student, then rising rapidly from a botany assistant to head of the department. He served in this capacity from 1899 until retiring in 1937 at the age of 76.
Still lively and spry, Mr. Stevens was at work on his book "Flowers of Kansas" by 9 a.m. As he firmly believes in the maxim, "you're only as old as you feel" the 85 years "young" Mr. Stevens still makes frequent field trips accompanied by an assistant.
Botany is not Mr. Stevens' only interest. He also enjoys reading the
newspapers, listening to the radio, and discussing current events.
And years ago, he became an expert breadmaker, when experimenting with yeast enzymes to better understand their baking function. Mrs. Stevens protested that she was a good breadmaker, and that there was no reason for her husband to clutter up the kitchen. But science won out in the end.
The University's octogenarian is looking forward to birthday parties in his honor today, one in the botany department this afternoon and a family gathering at his home this evening. Surrounded by family, friends, and a dish of his favorite ice cream, he thinks being 85 is wonderful.

Counsel for the Council
When half of the duly elected members of the All-Student Council resign in the short period of one semester leaving the Council weak and ineffective at the very time when it should be at a peak of efficiency and vigor, it is time to take objective stock of that mechanism we know as student government.
There are several weak links in the Council system which serve to answer these questions. One of them is the method of election.
The situation is not one that can be explained away as another by-product of the war. Only three resignees were navy men. There were one or two cases of sickness. But most vacancies were created by members who either did not make a "C" average to qualify for activities or who were "too busy" with other affairs to do Council work.
How could anyone with a wobbly grade average even be nominated for All-Student Council? And what other Hill activity possibly takes precedence over membership on the Council.
With general elections being held in each of several districts of the University, a party system has naturally evolved. Fundamentally healthy as such a system may be, on the campus it has come to be one of the bug-bears of student government. Political parties serve chiefly to throw all emphasis on the election, leaving little energy for Council problems after the balloting.
The candidate is in—that's the important point. Neither he nor his party care much about anything else.
The All-Student Council hasn't become an honorary society for astute politicians yet, but at times it seems headed that way.
Since election is the primary consideration, candidates are often selected not on how strong they will be in the Council, but on how strong they will be in the campaign. Who cares about a fellow's grade average as long as he is a cinch to be elected?
Here again, we find the election system partly at fault.
For all practical purposes, the Council representative has no constituency. He knows that he has been elected by the students of his district—say the College. But who are these students—what are they thinking—as a group what do they want him to do on the Council?
After the election, the representative loses contact with the students who elected him, and they with him. He receives neither praise nor commendation for his work which is supposedly in their behalf. He loses his sense of responsibility and usefulness. And since he is so obscure, his position ceases even to be an honor.
Some members of the faculty and some students have been considering this basic deficiency in organization of student government on the campus for some time. A number of other election systems have been suggested—systems which would take the heat out of elections and assign representatives to definite geographical constituencies.
The mass resignations of last semester serve only as a vivid illustration of the argument these individuals have been expounding for sometime. While other things may be wrong with the Council, the election system is certainly one of its basic faults.
Paul G. Hausman Came to K.U. —With His Banjo on His Knee
Touring the country with a left-handed banjo player and a two-necked banjo almost landed Prof. Paul G. Hausman, director of the University shops, in vaudeville.
It all began when someone planned a student-talent show at Pittsburgh State Teachers college, where Professor Hausman was a student. While working up an act, Prof. Hausman who strums a mean banjo, and sings, too, met a banjo player who was left handed. Seeing possibilities in the arrangement, the two tried several methods for playing each other's banjo, finally deciding to really merge-banjos.
That summer, the "Banjo Twins," as they called themselves, bought an old car and went on tour.
Three days before the show, they whitted and glued until they had a banjo with two necks. From here on it was easy. One sat on the other's lap with an arm around the bottom man's neck. A few minor changes in dress and the audience would think one did all the strumming and the other did all the fingering.
On the night of the show, they had the crowd rolling in the isle, won $25, and were signed for a show in the Pittsburg theater.
"We covered a lot of territory, had a lot of fun, and made a little money," Professor Hausman reminisced.
"We had several offers to go into
Since he came to K.U. in 1941, he has turned his talents to singing in a church choir, but he still takes out his banjo occasionally to serenade the wife.

Statewide Activities Meeting Wednesday
Edwin Browne, director of public relations for the University, will discuss plans for obtaining additional money to provide copies of the Jayhawker magazine for every high school in Kansas.
Increase In Enrollment Adds 80 To Staff
Mr. Quigley's idea is that each county chairman find an interested K.U. alumnus in his home town who would be willing to keep his eyes open for any returning veterans or high school students who have been outstanding in athletics.
E. C. Quigley, director of athletics, also will address the group concerning his new plan for bringing talent from all over the state to the University.
Eighty new staff members have seen appointed to handle the unprecedented increase in enrollments, he administration announced today.
Among the new appointments are Dr. Walter M. Kollmorgen, associate professor of geography. He comes to the University from the bureau of Economics in Washington, D.C. where he was an agricultural economist.
Loring O. Hanson is a new associate professor of applied mechanics, he has recently completed two years service rocket and ammunition officer in the Navy.
New South Wales was the first colony established in Australia.
Grace Williams, assistant professor of speech, who is teaching speech and speech correction, received her A.B. from Illinois university, her M.A. from Northwestern, and his B.A. from Michigan, the University of Wisconsin, and the University of London, England.
Robert L. Austin, assistant professor of business law, will teach courses in business law and public utilities.

New Credit Policy Adopted for Vets
Policies adopted by the College faculty in a meeting this week are:
Students who received partial credit for work done in courses before they entered military service may enroll for the entire course, canceling the original enrollment and the partial credit granted by the may enroll in the course for the remaining amount of credit by arranging with the department to complete the unfinished portion of the course.
The College will accept as much as eight hours of military credit which ordinarily would be counted as professional credit in the case of candidates for degrees in combined programs in the College and the School of Medicine and the School of Law.
Garnett Revives Sports Clubs
Garnett—Students from small towns may find more recreation at home this summer, at least those returning to Garnett will. The Garnett Gun club is attracting persons interested in trap shooting, and the Garnett Golf club is electing new officers. These clubs have not been active during the war but reconversion seems to be under way.

War With Russia In 10-15 Years. Women Predict
New York. (UP)—Five out of six American women believe that the United States will go to war against Russia within the next 10 to 15 years, a national opinion poll conducted by the Woman's Home Companion indicated today.
The magazine asserted that the poll represented the opinion of women in 3,600,000 homes throughout the nation. Only three questions were asked. The first was:
"Now that the war has been over for several months, do you feel that we are on the road to permanent peace?"
Eighteen per cent of those questioned responded "yes," and 82 per cent said "no," the magazine reported.
In answer to the question, "If not, how long do you think world peace can be maintained?" The magazine reported 42 per cent of the women said 10 years. Only 4 per cent said 50 years.
The magazine's final question was: "If you feel that we will be going to war again, against whom will we fight?"
It reported that 85 per cent of the women answered Russia, or Russia and other countries; 4 per cent said Germany; 3 per cent said civil war between Negroes and Whites; 2 per cent said the Asiatics; and 6 per cent named miscellaneous countries or combinations of countries.

It's the Gypsy in Me,' Says Lady Whose Hobby Is Traveling
A small, dark-eyed woman with a gypsy heart and a hobby-job is Miss Marjorie Whitney, associate professor of design.
When Miss Whitney wants to relax from her work, she simply takes up a new phase of it. This year her extracurricular activity is sculpture.
Besides her favorite pastime of re-decorating rooms, she does book-binding, weaving, woodcarving, and metalcraft. "If traveling can be called a hobby, that is mine. Mrs. Riggs's work has made Europe only once, but I've been all over the United States. And I can't call any place my favorite—I like them all."
Miss Whitney was a student instructor during her senior year at the University, and has taught here ever since. She is now director of the design department.
Her summer in Europe in 1938 was spent studying, most of the time in Sweden. She also has taken special work in Boston, San Francisco, the California School of Arts and Crafts of the University of California, and at the University of Kansas where she received the bachelor's degree.
"At some time or other I have
taught every course in the curriculum," she laughs.
Gugler-Ruhlen Married
Miss Whitney decorated the sunroom in Watkins hospital with murals. Besides similar projects which she has handled for other hospitals and schools, her life's "play" has included writing a bookbinding manual and illustrating two children's books.
Miss Lylas Ruhlen, daughter of Rev, and Mrs. C. L. Ruhlen, Florence, and Mr. Wayne Gugler, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. F. Gugler, Abilene, were married at 8 p.m., Feb. 7, in Watkins hall. The ceremony was performed by the bride's father.
Carole Ruhlen was maid of honor for her sister and Suzanna Logsdon was bridesmaid. Merle Gugler acted as best man for his brother. A reception was held at the hall after the ceremony.
Mrs. Gugler, Fine Arts junior, is a member of Mu Phi Epsilon, and the a capella choir. Mr. Gugler, a student in 1942-'43, recently discharged from the army, has re-enrolled this semester.

On the Fenski with MEG WENSKI
Exclusive of the point scoring honors held by Charlie Black, Kansas can't seem to keep records longer than a few days without another Big Six team breaking the record
The all-time high Big Six scoring record—72 points in one game—was retained by Kansas for only two days after trouncing Nebraska, 72-30. last Friday.
Then Iowa State trounced K-State, 74-39. Monday night at Ames. Early in January the Wildcats won their only conference victory from this same Iowa State.
The Jayhawkers 72 points had better the former high of 70 points held jointly by Oklahoma and K- State.
Gene "Wrong Way" Anderson, the promising freshman giant of the Jayhawker quintet, dropped out of school this week to join the army. Andy had quit school at the end of the first semester, but rejoined the squad last week when he thought he might be re-deferred.
Everett Hill, reserve letterman from last year, was also dropped from the squad because of a deficiency in grade points.
The loss of two more members of the quintet this week was compensated more or less in the form of big Jack Ballard, a veteran of the 1943 squad, who has just returned from a trip with the M & O Smokies of Kansas City. Ballard, who was expected to be in uniform for the Nebraska game last Friday, saw the encounter from the bench in civvies
Meet Your Team.
A versatile man in high school athletics was John "The Greek" Kansas, reserve basketball forward. The 20-year-old Kansas Citian played on several city champion teams with the tough Wyandotte Bulldogs, winning a total of seven letters, two each in football and basketball, and three on the diamond.
Now classified as a College junior, he spent two years of cadet training under the Navy V-5 program before enrolling at Kansas last fall. He weighs in at 165 and stands 5 feet $10\frac{1}{2}$ inches high. Heavy schedules of study and basketball don't leave him much extra time for dating, but John says approves heartily of the campus dating system. There's "no steady" right now, he says, but adds that from his observations, University women are "pretty nice." He is a Sigma Chi pledge.
Justice Wedell Guest At Memorial Luncheon
Hugo T. Wedell, president of the University Memorial Drive was guest of honor at a luncheon today in the Union English room.

K.U. Five Enroute To Missouri Game
Twelve members of the Jayhawker quintet left by bus at noon today for Columbia, where they will meet the Missouri Tigers at 8 tomorrow night in their eighth conference game.
There is a possibility that the squad will stop in Boonville, Mo. to practice.
Trials Tonight to Pick Trackmen for Meet
Twenty men will leave Lawrence tomorrow to meet with the thrice victorious Nebraska tracksters at Lincoln Saturday.
Final trials will be held tonight on the indoor stadium saucer to determine which men will make the trip. Charles Paul, Dick Anderson, Rod McLver and Dick Shea will sprint the 60-yard dash for the three berths on the traveling squad in this event.
KU. hopes for victory against the Huskers were bolstered by the return of Bob Stoland, who won the high jump in the Texas Relays when he jumped for the Jayhawkers in 1941. Tom Scofield and Stoland are sure point winners in this event.
sure point. Leroy Robison and Dick Bertuzzi will have Karl Ebel assisting them in the shot put. Don Shuster, V-5 transfer from Iowa State, will strengthen the distances which are now solely in the capable hands of Hal Moore.
Johnnie Jackson, Andy Lunsford and Dick Shea will kick the cinders in the 440-yard dash, which Frank Raab, Bob Laptad, and Hal Hinchee will run the half.
Gene Alford will take on the high timbers along with Dexter Welton, Robison and Welton will run the low hurdles, Sid Bennet, Alford, and Anderson will pole vault for Kansas while Mel Stevens and Joe Connellly are scheduled in the broad jump.

Both Kansas and Nebraska have designated Oklahoma and the Huskers have beaten Missouri and Iowa State. Kansas' loss to M.U. last Saturday gives the Huskers a slight edge on paper.

Chinese Blame F.D.R. For Yalta Agreement
Chungking. (UP)—Thousands of Chinese students, led by professors, Gold anti-Russian and anti-communist demonstrations today while newspapers carried the texts of a protest signed by 20 educators condemning the Yalta agreement and blaming the late President Roosevelt.
The educators' protest called the Yalta agreement a "black spot in modern diplomatic history endangering future world peace."
"We can not forgive the late President Roosevelt for signing this agreement despite all his kind help toward China and his great efforts in the war against the Axis powers," the protest said.
Washington. (UP) -The state department repeated today that the United States made no commitments at Yalta granting Russia prior claim to Japanese investments in Manchuria as reparations.
This statement was made by the department in releasing the full text of the Sino-Soviet treaty of friendship signed in Moscow last August by Russia and China.
Bowles 'In Favor' Of Meat Price Increase
Washington (UP) The senate banking committee was told today that economic stabilizer Chester Bowles favors an increase in meat prices to meet higher wages granted packing house workers.
Packinghouse workers recently received a 16-cent-an-hour wage boost after a walkout and government seizure of the packing plants. A government fact-finding board recommended price increases to cover 11 cents of the 16-cent increase.
Washington, (UP)—Civilian production chief John D. Small said today that 10 pairs of some kind of stockings is the most each woman in the United States can expect this year.
He said in a letter to Rep. Clare Boothe Luce, Connecticut Republican, 30 million pairs of nylon stockings should be produced each month of 1946.
St. Louis, Mo. (UP)—The largest group of atomic bomb scientists to assemble since V-J Day gathered in St. Louis today for the inaugural of Dr. Arthur H. Compton as chancellor of Washington university.
Dr. Compton, Nobel prize winner, directed the University of Chicago's metallurgical laboratory atomic project.
Republicans Want Conscription Ban
Washington. (UP)—Despite President Truman's objections, House Republicans appeared to be gaining support today for their plan to seek abolition of peacetime conscription through worldwide agreement.
The Republicans want the United States to lead such a move in hopes it may eliminate any need for compulsory military training here. Their strategy is to get the military affairs committee to put aside the president's training bill and give their proposal a trial.
Bombay. (UF)—Frenzied Indian mobs roamed uncontrolled through the heart of Bombay today, fighting battles with police, burning buildings and attacking British civilians in support of a naval mutiny in the harbor.
Federation Calls Telephone Strike For March 7
Union To Disregard Emergency Service; May Blackout News
(By United Press)
The nation is threatened with the most paralyzing strike in its history if the National Federation of Telephone Workers and its affiliated unions does not reach a wage settlement by March 7.
This was the picture painted for Americans today by NFTW president, Joseph Beirne who announced that the walkout will take place at 6 a.m. on the strike date.
Beirne said that 160,000 Federation members would walk out and that 100,000 other workers would honor the picket lines. The strike will tie up telephone service in 43 states.
The nation's link with the outside world might be severed, since operators on overseas switch boards in the U.S. are union members.
Proposed strike measures are more severe in the last telephone strike.
"Radio wires and news wires may suffer a blackout with no telephone company personnel to maintain them," union officials declared.
Beirne said that the Federation will give no consideration for emergency service. He also stated that the executive council had reached no decision on what action to take if communications industry
A message from Secretary of Labor Lewis B. Schwellambach urging the Federation "to avoid strike action until further negotiations take place," was received 25 minutes after the work stoppage date had been set.
"My reply to Schwefelbach's message will be that the workers are going on strike March 7. If he wants to confer with me, I will be in Washington next week," Beirne declared.
The unions are asking for a $2-a-day wage increase and a return to a 40-hour work week. Beirne indicated earlier that the Federation might lower its minimum wage demands of 65 cents an hour.
'Reserve Rooms Now Miss Miller Urges
Room reservations for the summer session may be made now, according to Miss Marie Miller, adviser of women, who urges students who visit reservations in a dormitory to make them immediately.
Corbin, Watkins, and Miller halls will be open. Miss Miller said today. Corbin will be operated on the same basis as last year, with meals being served in the morning and at night. Watkins and Miller halls, which will not be worked on a cooperative basis, will offer rooms with or without kitchen privileges.
Plans for sending a representative to the national convention of Phi Chi Theta, professional business sorority, were discussed at a meeting in the Union last night.

Zip! And Your 'Entrance Exams' Are Graded
Mildred Hack, College senior, lends a hand to the complicated test-scoring machine which occupies a corner of the Guidance bureau's front office. With a snap of her finger, the machine goes whirr—zii!" and a complicated test that may have taken an hour or so to answer is all graded.
You Wrote Tests for Hours, But Machine Grades Them in Seconds
It can think-almost-and it has no head.
It is a fast worker, this machine. The International scoring machine used by the guidance bureau can grade papers at the rate of from 250 to about 400 an hour, or in one-eighth the time required for complete hand scoring of the same number of tests.
Six hours after more than 900 new students had answered (or tried to answer) approximately 682,000 questions on aptitude and psychological tests at the start of the semester, the scoring crew in the guidance bureau knew they had graded nearly all of the papers, and most of them were checked by the scoring machine.
The mathematics tests were the only ones not graded by the machine, because answers involving written words and figures cannot be machine-scored.
To be graded by the International scoring machine, tests must be written with special graphite pencils because the marks of ordinary lead pencils do not have enough electrical conductivity to make the machine record the score.
Open house will be held in the new location Wednesday night. The club formerly had quarters in Green hall.
Results of these tests, which have been used here for the past 10 years, do not exclude any student from entrance to the University. However, the four tests designated "aptitude" and "psychology" examinations do aid in detecting students' readiness to college work, by estimating their skill in fundamental subjects. Results are used in placing and advising students.
After the machine is set, the operator inserts the answer sheet, presses a lever, and reads the grade, which is indicated by a pointer on an illuminated dial. Percentile grades, which are available to the student, then are computed.
The University club will move to its new club rooms at 1007 1-2 Massachusetts street Monday, Prof Verner Smith, club secretary-treasurer, said today.
Election of officers for this semester's Pre-nursing club has been postponed until March 4.

Housing Shortage May Kill Boy's State This Year

The State As-sures Us
Although it may seem startling, there is really nothing unusual about the fact that the $100,000 veterinary hospital destroyed by fire at Kansas State college was not insured.
Feeling that it is big enough to stand what losses do occur, the state carries no insurance on any of its buildings. It estimates that absorbing a loss every now and then is cheaper in the long run than keeping up premiums on many hundred state structures.
Damages from fires such as the one in Manhattan Tuesday are covered by appropriations from the state legislature.
Several years ago, the Kansas State science building burned. At the next session of the legislature, money was appropriated for a new building. Similarly, when the Anatomy building burned in 1943 at the University, the legislature promptly appropriated money to remodel Haworth hall to house the anatomy department.
Kansas State will undoubtedly be covered again by the legislature, although the college will have to wait until the legislature convenes in about a year for the appropriation unless a special session should be called.
In other words, Kansas State college, the University, or any other state institution is, for all practical purposes, insured by the state itself. The legislature is morally obligated to appropriate money to cover damages.
By ruling of the attorney-general, an exception to the no-insurance rule is made of buildings which are gifts to the state. Theoretically, the state is not morally bound to replace buildings which it has not built in the first place—so institutions are permitted to cover them.
At the University, then, all dormitories which have been given to the school, Fowler shops, Spooner-Thayer museum, and so forth, are insured, while Frank Strong, Fraser, Corbin, and other state built structures are not.
Fraser hall is an example of the reasoning behind state policy on insurance. Standing for 74 years with no insurance protection, Fraser has saved the state thousands of dollars.
Visualizing many Frasers over the state, it is easy to see that unpaid premiums pile up, figuratively speaking, into a fund from which money to replace an occasional loss can be withdrawn easily.
'Dumpy' Couldn't Make the Team, So He Made Song Hits Instead
If you can't be an athlete, write music.
This was the motto of George S "Dumpy" Bowles who made a career of writing songs for his alma mater, the University of Kansas.
He came to the University with high hopes of making a name for himself in athletics, but a physical handicap punctured his balloon of athletic hopes. He did not become well known until he wrote the pep song. "I'm a Javahawk."
The song was introduced in 1920. eight years after his graduation, as a help toward raising funds for Memorial stadium. When it was published, he turned half the proceeds from royalties over to the stadium fund.
Every student enjoys singing this song should remember as he sings it that "I'm a Jayhawk" helped to build the stadium in which many K.U. football games are played.
Although he wrote the song in 1920, and it immediately won student popularity, it wasn't until 1923 that it became the official pep song of the University. The song, as "Dumpy" contained only one verse and the chorus.
The second verse about the tombstones of the Tiger, the Sooner, the Husker, and the Brave, and the Jayhawkers being the bird that made them kick the pail, was written by Duncan McKeever and Owen Welch in the fall of 1925.
The Glee club wanted to sing the song as part of their program on a concert tour, but needed another verse before they could use the song in that way. Prof. T. A. Laramore, at that time director of the Glee club, asked for students to submit verses written by McKeever in handed by Welch and McKeever was the one chosen. Although the verse is not official, it is still sung.
Bowles has written many songs for
Farm to Become Housing Site
Paola—A new residential district is being planned for the 200-acre farm just north of Paola. It is the plan of the new owners to have the greater portion of the farm plotted into lots for a modernistic residential district with drives and landscaping.
the University and many of them have become national song hits, but the one for which he will be longest remembered is, "I'm a Jayhawk."

Famous last words. It was a lecture period in bac lab the morning that Alberta Cornwell became so entranced with the words of Dr. Treeche that she didn't realize her pompadour was sizzling in a local bunsn burner. Polly Staples, her cool-headed lab partner, glanced at her D.G. sister and calmly said, "Did you know your hair is on fire, honey?"—Polly explained to Dr. Treeche later that she didn't want to cause a commotion.
Shall we dance? Hank Brown and his camera attended the midweek Wednesday. He was perched on the bandstand, searching for a photogenic curve, when somebody tapped him on the shoulder and said, "Let's have a rhumba, fella."-Hank protests that he hasn't played the violin since grade school.
Call girl — Virginia Joseph, Theta freshman, gave DU dugges time to meditate by the fire Sunday last by answering the phones in their place. As a caller remarked, it was disconcerting but pleasant.
Call boy — Since Bill Quiring, Sig Alf, abandoned the campus for Wichita this semester, he makes a practice of calling Betty Sargent, SK, for 45-minute confabs almost daily. It would have been cheaper and simpler to stay in school (his dad keeps telling him).
Tall, dark, and handsome. Mary Margaret Gaynor, Helen Mather, A. O. PiPs, and several other members of I Pan-Hellenic committee were meeting Wednesday night in Miss Martha Peterson's room, third floor, Faculty Women's club. During aull in the discussion, a fragment of conversation drifted in from the room across the hall. Miss Florence Black was saying to Miss Kathleen Doering, "He loves to have me rub his ears."
Unable to ignore this indiscreet confession, the Pan-Hell members pressed for an explanation.
But everything was in order; Miss Black rubs Jerry's ears and Jerry is a horse.

A-Bomb No Defense Huchins Declares
Washington. (UP) — Chancellor Robert M. Hutchins of the University of Chicago said today that the atomic bomb has made compulsory peace-time military training "the most useless of all forms of preparation for war."
"There is no defense against the atomic bomb," he told the house military affairs committee.
"This means that there is no way of preventing the destruction of the cities of the United States, except by preventing war," he said. "For nobody seriously supposes that there is a 'secret' of the atomic bomb which the United States can keep."
The committee resumed hearings today on legislation to establish a military training program for all youths of 18 years or older. Such a program has been requested by President Truman. The committee plans to conclude its hearings on the subject this week.

K.U. Cagers Enter Critical Week Must Face M.U., Iowa State, O.U.
The Jayhawkers will enter perhaps their most critical week of Big Six competition when they meet a much-improved Missouri squad at 8 tonight in Columbia.
After the Tiger tussle tonight, the Jayhawkers must face a sharp-shooting Iowa State team here Monday, and then take on the Oklahoma Sooners at Norman next Friday. The Oklahoma game will determine the winner of the Big Six crown if neither team loses $ ^{ \textcircled{2}} $
The Jayhawkers are favored to score a victory over the fourth-place Missourians. Such a victory would be their 30th win in 46 games played between the two rivals since 1927.
Three important second-semester additions from the armed forces have bolstered the Missouri quintet, and the Jayhawkers may find it difficult to duplicate their early season defeat of the Tigers. 48-36.
Lincoln Jenkins, a member of the sophomore team in 1942, has returned to the Missouri lineup after service in the army air corps. Jimmy Austin, forward, and Kenny Bounds, center, have also played major roles in Missouri's rise from the cellar position to fourth place.
The entire Jayhawkvarity squad l yesterday at noon to make the trip to Columbia. The court players who will suit up at Missouri are Gear, Black, Evans, Schnellbacher, Peck, Ballard, Barr, Baker, Peterson, Drisby, Kanas, and Clark.
No mention of a starting lineup has been made, but it will probably con-

New Grid Coaches Dominate Big Six
Kansas City, Mo. (UP)—Five Big Six conference schools will open the 1946 football season with head coaching changes, three new to the midland league and two returned from the service.
Iowa State was the only conference member to retain its 1945 head football coach, Mike Michalske, former all-league guard with the Green Bay Packers, who will again be at the helm of the Cyclones.
The three schools who will introduce new head coaches to the conference this season are Kansas, Oklahoma and Nebraska. Both Missouri and Kansas State will be guided by pre-war coaches who have returned from the service.

Quigley, athletic director at the University of Kansas, interviewed several applicants for the head coach vacancy created by the resignation of Henry Shenk before securing the services of George Sauer, former all-American football player at Nebraska. Sauer, who tutored at New Hampshire university with considerable success, is expected to name his assistants soon.
Jim Tatum, who was a coaching aide to Don Faurat of Missouri while at Iowa Pre-Flight and Jacksonville Naval air station, has signed a three-year contract to replace Dewey Snorter (Sporter) Lester to be the head coach. Laster asked to be relieved of his head coaching duties because of poor health.
Nebraska dipped into the service ranks for its 1946 head mentor with Bernie Masterson, St. Mary's preflight coach, who succeeds George (Potsy) Clark at the Cornhusker helm, Gomer Jones, former All-American center at Ohio State and a coaching aide at St. Mary's PreFlight, will be head coach at Nebraska.

Bowles Official Head Of Stabilization Board
pen Washington, (UP)—President Truitt today formally ordered the re-establishment of the Office of Economic Stabilization.
Bomb Staillation Chester Bowles, former price administrator, will be stabilization director.
The executive order also re-established the economic stabilization board. It will consist of Bowles, the Secretaries of treasury, agriculture, commerce and labor, the federal Loan administrator, the chairman of the Federal Reserve board, the budget director, the chairman of the Securities and Exchange commission, the price administrator, the national housing administrator, and the chairman of the National Wage Stabilization board.
Washington. (UP)—A battle was shaping up in the senate today over the administration's bill to raise the national minimum wage from 40 to 65 cents an hour.
The measure, high on President Truman's "must" list, comes up for debate soon before approval of the labor committee. Sen. Claude Pepper, Florida Democrat, and floor sponsor, admitted a "very tough fight" was in prospect but was confident it would be approved with most major provisions intact.
Von Ribbentrop Asks Churchill To Testify
Nürnberg, (UP)—The war crimes tribunal took under advisement today a request of former German Foreign Minister Joachim Von Ribentrop to call Winston Churchill as a defense witness.
The court action came after British Prosecutor Sir David Maxwell Fyfe objected to the request. The request came from Ribbentrop's rounsel.
The application had stated that Churchill, in a visit to the German embassy before the war, had told Ribbentrop that England "would destroy Germany if she should become too strong."
Manila, (UP)—Maj. Gen. William Ewart Plank of Lawrence, and former University of Kansas student, was en route back to the United States for an important east coast command.
He turned over command of the Manila base Saturday to Brig. Gen. Arthur G. Trudeau of Washington, D.C.
Paris (UP)—France's economic recovery and her future role in world trade hinge on the success or failure of ex-premier Leon Blum's borrowing mission to Washington, Herve Alphand, economic director of the French foreign office told a press conference today.
Bium, who is scheduled to leave for the United States tomorrow, is reported seeking a $2,500,000,000 American credit, but Alphand refused to confirm that figure.
In His Steps' Author Dies in Topeka
Topcka (UP)—Funeral services were arranged today for the Rev. Charles M. Sheldon, 88, world famous Kansas church leader and author of "In His Steps", who died at a local hospital late yesterday.
Reverend Sheldon did not regain consciousness since he suffered a stroke more than a week ago.
Sales of the religious novel "His Steps" were exceeded in past years only by sales of the Bible. More than 23 million copies of Reverend Sheldon's religious epic have been sold. The book was translated into more than 16 languages
Cost of Living May Rise Again Eccles Predicts
Washington. (UP)—Federal reserve board chairman Marriner S. Eccles told the House Banking Committee today, there was a possibility the cost of living may increase by another 10 per cent under President Truman's new ware-price policy.
Eccles, testifying in support of a bill to continue the Price Control law for another year after the June 30 expiration date, told the committee that the cost of living is now 30 per cent higher than during the period immediately preceding the war.
"I should think that with the increased wages and prices under the new wage-price policy," he said, "there is a possibility, according to some estimates, of an increase to a maximum of 40 per cent.
Eccles contended that it would be highly dangerous to remove price controls in an effort to increase production, as had been proposed by the National Association of manufacturers.
"If the cost of living can be held to 40 per cent over the pre-war cost then we will have done a good job in view of the large public financing." Eccles said.
Steps must be taken to reduce the amount of idle funds in the hands of the public and in the banks that production must be stepped off. But until this is done, Eccles declared, price control must be kept in force.
He said that arguing price controls was "like arguing against all vaccination—that it is better to contract smallpox and take a chance of recovering from it rather than to take preventative measures."
Rep. Wright Patman, Texas Democrat, asked about the value of the dollar today as compared with the period immediately preceding the war.
Eccles answered that, measured by the increase in the cost of living, the dollar is about 30 per cent "inflated."
"This is as good a job as any country has done to control inflation," he added. "Canada, perhaps, has done a little better than we."
Owen Peck Reigns As Campus Pep King
Approximately 400 couples danced to the music of Charles Steeper's band in the Military Science building, Nancy Tomlinson, social chairman, reported today. Proceeds from ticket sales are to go to the Jay Jane scholarship presented to a woman student each year.
King Owen Peck, Sigma Chi, began his rule with pomp and ceremony at the Jaw Jane Vice-Versa dance. Saturday night.
King Pep reigns again over the University campus.
A silver crown and a pair of those coveted nylons were possessions of King Peck as he descended the steps from the platform. That is, they were his until he met Joan Woodward, escort, who within the next few minutes acquired those 51 guage hose.

Entry List Grows In Cartoon Contest
Campus cartoonists were busy during the weekend, and the entry list in the Daily Kansan's contest to choose a staff cartoonist swelled today, the Contest editor reported.
There are only two days more in the contest, which is open to any K.U. student, and which offers prizes worth more than $50. A student may enter as many cartoons as he wishes.
War Memorial 'Won't Alter' Center Campus Drive
The center campus drive, once considered a casualty of the World War II Memorial Drive and carillon tower project, won't be changed after all.
"Our purpose is purely to construct a memorial drive." Posthle-walte declared. "If any changes are made in the present driveway, they will be made by the board of regents, and not the memorial association."
This information came today from Kenneth Postlethwaite, memorial association director, after a meeting of association directors here last week.
Original plans of the memorial group, as announced last summer, included the "eventual removal of the memorial from formation of the area into a "mall"
Architect sketches of the proposed carillon tower for the drive will be ready this week, and engineering plans for the project are due "early in March," Postlethwaite said. No contracts have been awarded yet for the carillon. Only two English firms can cast the bells required for the tower.
The Jayhawk Veteran's club began a membership drive today, campaigning for 2,000 new members. Michael Kuklenski, president, said today.

Victory Over Cyclones Will Give Jayhawkers Undisputed League Title, First Since '43
A tall, terrific, and title-hungry Jayhawker quintet meets the dangerous Iowa State 1945 conference champions in the Big Six title tussle at 7:30 tonight in Hoch auditorium.
Each of four Cyclone losses has been by a small margin, and the third place team upset powerful Oklahoma by two points in Ames, Saturday. Their opener against K-State was dropped an overtime, 52-46, and a second extra-period scrap was lost to K.U., 50-47, at Ames. The first meeting with the Oklahoma Sooners was lost by one point, 44-43, and last week, the Cyclos took a 38-26 clipping at the hands of the fourth-place Missourians.
Fresh from a 50-34 trouncing of Missouri, with big Otto Schnellbacher stacking the chips at 22 points, the Kansans have an improved Owen Peck, the consistently high-scoring of Chance Bubbs, and a multitude of steady reserves to pave the way to the title.
"With Ray Evans on our team, we could beat you Kansans tonight," Louis Menze, Iowa State mentor and a "Phog" Allen pupil, stated here today.
had no losses this season, and Oklahoma, second-place holder, has had two. A K.U. loss tonight would necessitate a victory over O.U. in Norman, Thursday, while a win will give the Jayhawkers undisputed possession of the crown.
"Kansas has the best team in the conference," Menze added, "but we're going to fight hard to keep the scoring within a 12-point leeway. We did you a favor by winning over Oklahoma, Saturday night."
A complete sell-out for the Jayhawkers' last home demonstration was reported today by the athletic office. No tickets may be purchased at the gate.
Curiosity brought Loretta Ting from Hawaii three weeks ago, to enroll at the University as a special student in Fine Arts.
Evans, 1943 All-America guard, joined the squad several weeks ago and was the third member of the famed "Iron Five" to return.
More than 1,000 students showed a new high in enthusiasm at a noon rally in the Union today. Veteran John Pfitts, assistant basketball coach, and the Crimson and Blue band were on hand for the spirited demonstration.
"I heard so much about Kansas from former K.U. students, I had to come and see for myself," she laughs.
She is Chinese but has spent her life in Hawaii. Already she has seen her first snow storm and her first dust storm.
The Jayhawkers have not taken the title since 1943, the year KU.'s "Iron Five" ruled the Big Six race. Tonight's game may determine the
"I don't think Hawaii is ready for stewardship," she declares. "Our economic system has to be raised first, so that we won't be an underdog."
"Everyone seems amazed that I speak English with no accent," she says. "They do not realize that in the Islands our schools are patterned after the best in the United States, and that we have had many teachers from this country."
"This country is so drab!" she exclaims. "Your trees don't have any leaves!"
A graduate of the University of Hawaii in Honolulu, Miss Ting
taught home economics for several years, but plans to turn her painting, jewelry-making, and weaving into a business-hobby. "into a 'business-hobby.'"
She was at the University of Hawaii when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. With other home economics and nursing students, she helped care for wounded civilians and servicemen.
“Our campus quarters and building facilities were turned into emergency wards,” she relates. “We waited for the Japs to follow up their first attack, but weren't dispatched when the invasion didn't come!”
With servicemen leaving the Islands, the streets of little villages which one were filled with American soldiers are again becoming quiet country towns like those in Kansas, she comments.
"When I go home next summer," she says, "The Islands will be welcoming every ship with Hawaiian guitars and leis, as they did before the war."
His subject will be "British-American Relations."
Halifax Speaks At 10 Tomorrow
Lord Hallifax, former British ambassador to the United States, and second on K.U.'s "big name" convocations program, will speak at 10 a.m. tomorrow in Hoch auditorium. His subject will be "British-Amer-
The Earl of Halifax, (Edward Frederick Lindley Wood), has been called a "praying mantis with an umbrella," and "Lord Holy Fox." Winston Churchill has complimented him on his ability to combine the more salutary features of a fox hunter and the religious man.
Chosen by Churchill in 1940 as ambassador to the United States, he has held the position until recently become a famous personality to the American people.
Lord Halifax and Lord Keynes, economic advisor to the British treasury, negotiated 12 weeks with Will Clayton, United States assistant secretary of state, for a billion loan arrangement now proposed between the two countries.
Objectives Important, Compton Tells 2,500
Dr. Compton called for "cooperation through an international organization with a police force drawn from all nations." The United States is in the world spotlight today, be said, and "with these new powers in our hands, we cannot turn back—we have to lead, to guide the way."
Finding worthwhile objectives and "doing the things that mean most in shaping the world around us," are the truly important trends of today. Dr. Arthur H. Compton, sternic bomb specialist, said the American University of Washington university, told 2,500 K.U. students in a Hochschule convocation today.
When the British members of parliament and American congressmen exchanged carols across the sea this past Christmas, the Americans sang "Good Lord Halifax" (to the tune of Good King Wenceslas), and the British sang their thanks for a "gift with strings a-dangling."

First of a series of four "Big Name" convocation speakers, Dr. Compton was introduced by Chancellor Deane W. Malott.
We are moving toward more training and education, but we also must move toward cooperation, for example, to ensure war is breeding antagonism, waging war
As long as we have the objectives toward a better world, "we have a task in which we are all prepared to lose ourselves," the scientist declared.

The Pigeon Coup
The Jayhawk Veterans club hopes the "homing pigeon" will find a permanent roost in its loft this week in response to an all-out drive to unify this new faction of the student body.
this new faction of the student body.
So far attempts to strengthen the Jayhawk Veterans have been thwarted on all sides by the one dubious question, "What could the club offer me?"
Even students who have been on the Hill during the past few years have wondered why it is that a veteran would want to join a club which brings him back into association with the men with whom he lived the war.
Thus far, only 150 ex-servicemen have joined the ranks. The club was off to an anemic start last year and dwindled by spring. But it was revitalized by the influx of returning servicemen, new officers were elected at the end of last semester, and the group took a running start on this one.
Jayhawk Veteran officers believe that their membership would multiply rapidly if all veterans on the campus understood and appreciated the club's three-way program.
The social committee arranges for parties and dances, exclusively for ex-servicemen and their wives and dates. Committee members feel that particularly the older veterans and those who are married are hesitant about joining into social functions. They hope that these parties will be a transition step into a broader Hill recreational life.
To help discharged servicemen—and servicewomen, too, if they wish—become a more integral part of Hill life, academic, social, and housing committees have been established.
The academic committee came into existence to help veterans in scholastic life. For instance, a student going to school under the rehabilitation act (Public Law 16) automatically receives no more financial aid if he fails to make his grades a single semester. If the committee believes that the individual failed to make the correct academic requirements because of a particularly difficult course or ill health, it investigates and petitions for the student to stay in school under the bill.
The housing committee works with University authorities to help solve the housing situation.
A fourth committee, the membership committee, is charged with the responsibility of enticing new members into the fold with promises to avoid psychoneuroses by whole-hearted, healthy activity with 2,000 other happy veterans. The price is two bits.
Although not wishing to affiliate with the national veterans club organization headquartered in Brooklyn, N.Y., the campus veterans expect to expand into a state-wide league. Club members here think the K.U. chapter will take the lead among schools in Kansas.-H.H.
'Kloo' to Our Financial Success: Karl Klooz Who Takes In Millions
Karl Klooz collected $1,599,437.37
last year.
This year the sum will be even larger as money keeps flowing into the bursar's office.
All enrollees must lay cash on the line before they can become full-fledged Jayhawkers, Mr. Klooz, bur-sar, smilingly tells those who pass his way in the fee line.
In the past few years, Mr. Klooz's office has received only one "bad" check for fee payment—which should prove something about University student's honesty.
The penalty of 50 cents a day which is charged for late payment on fees not only serves as an incentive for students to come across with "enough, and on time," but also brings a little additional revenue to the University. About $600 was collected this way last year.
Fee-payers aren't the only ones who pass money over the counter at Mr. Klooz's office. Of the total amount received last year, money came not only from fees, but also from University dormitories, the army, the navy, and various University departments and schools.

YW Members May Sign
For Workshop Next Week
All Y.W.C.A. members may sign up for workshops for this semester next week at Henley house, Mrs. Christine Alford, executive secretary, said today.
The workshops include vocations, worship, minorities, community service, national problems, fellowship, and world service. Anyone wishing to change the workshop they are on now also may do it next week, Mrs. Alford said. Any student who would like to join may do so now at Henley house.
University bursar lie in his ability to remember things, especially names of students who frequent his office. He has a weakness for sports and loves a good game of bridge.
Chairman of the Jayhawx advisory board, Mr. Kloozo is a past-president of the Lawrence Rotary club and seven years has been secretary of the club.

Don't look now but--, Dorris Bickel, Herman Co-op, is in the news again, this time with a bad knee. But the hospital did a good job of wrapping it. Consequently, Dorris was walking down the campground, crawling up a little limp when she became conscious of two small boys just behind her.
One and the same. Doris Kingsbury, SK pledge, awakened with a start at 6 a.m., remembering that she was to write a description of herself in French for class that day. So she plowed out of bed and spent two hours on the assignment.
"Say," one was saying to the other, "do you suppose that girl knows her underwear is showing?"
But Mr. Towne only looked blank when he was presented the sketch. "I've never made an assignment in my life, like this," he said.
Next hour, the truth was out. Before she arose that morning Doris was dreaming—and her subconscious mind had understandably twisted things. The assignment was, not a personal description in French, but a contour map in geology.

What would you do if you saw 34 young ladies marching and singing down the middle of the street? Some would give appreciative whistles and others would just enjoy the sight as do the residents around Foster hall when they see the women walking to Corbin for meals. As there are no cooking facilities in Foster hall, the woman walk a block for breakfast, lunch, and dinner with the Corbinites.
Pajama parties are one of the favorite pastimes of the Foster women, the strawberry festival being the most important of these. The girls gather around in their "nighties" for the usual gab fest and eat nothing but lots and lots of strawberries and ice cream.
As Foster hall, the building was first used to house men in the signal corps training and later as a dormitory for women in similar training. It was converted into a girl's dormitory in September, 1943, when it began operating as a unit with Corbin hall.
Foster hall has changed hands many times through the years. Originally the home of a university professor, it was later the home of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity. Then it was purchased by the University Endowment association and named Foster hall in honor of George O. Foster, who served the University for 52 years, 44 of which he was registrar.

Thinclads Break Five Records
The Kansas tracksters turned in five record-breaking performances against K-State and Nebraska at Lincoln last Saturday.
Four meets, combined into one, completely confused the over-capacity crowd to the finish. Three dual meets putting Kansas against Nebraska and K-State, and Nebraska versus K-State, and a triangular affair between all three schools, composed the program for the night.
Kansas defeated K-State 56 1-24 1-6 2-1; placed second in the triangular contest, 57 points to the Huskers, 41 1-2 for KU., and 21 1-2 to K-State); and was defeated by Neb.aska in the dual event 58-46.
The feature run of the evening was turned in by Hal Hinchee, NROTOC transfer from Denison University. Hinchee ran a beautifully engineered 880 against "Unbeatable" Dean Kratz of Nebraska, and set three new meet marks in beating Kratz by more than 20 yards.
KIRA
Johnnie Jackson continued his "record-a-meet" performance as he set a new triangular meet record for the quarter mile at 51.4 seconds.
K.U.'s top relay team compo-
jice Jim Richey, Jackson, Andy Luns-
ford and Dick Shea ran off with
that event for the third record of
the evening at 3:34. Lunsford also
placed third against Nebraska and
second against K-State in the open
quarter.
Tom Scofield tied the Nebraska dual meet record in the high jump and Bob Stoland came through with a close second. Stoland, after a five year break in competition because of the war, won the broad jump with Mel Stevens taking third against both rivals.
Leroy Robison bettered his previous mark-in the shot with a throw of 46 feet 6-3-4 inches. Robison also placed third in the low hurdles against K-State. Frank Raab placed second against the Aggies in the mile and third in the same event against the Huskers. Raab also took third in the half against both schools. Don Schuster, freshman V-5 trainee, showed great promise in the distances as he placed third against both rivals in the mile and two-mile runs.
Dick Anderson and Rod McLver ran two, three against both schools in the sixty-yard dash. Anderson and Gene Alford tied for second and third against the Huskers and for third against the Wildcats. Dexter Welton ran third in both hurdle events against N.U., second in the lows and third in the highs against State.
The absence of Hal Moore, champion miler and two-miller, gave the Huskers the necessary points to win the K.U.-N.U. dual meet and the triangular meet.
The outcome of these meets places KU, at the top of the heap with Iowa State and Nebraska for the Big Six meet next Saturday on the Kansas City Municipal auditorium spruce oval.
Christian Youth Week Stresses Daily Living
The greatest test of faith is daily living, Jeanne Ackley, K.U. Danforth Fellow, asserted last night, at a religious meeting which opened Christian Youth Week activities in Barlow chapel, after a College Forum in Myers hall.
Miss Ackley, speaking on the topic, "We Must Be the World We Want—How?" said that each person can determine the type of world he wants by working toward the creation of such a world. This, she added, is the only way the Christian dream can be attained.
A banquet Wednesday night will be included in Youth Week activities, the Rev. Mr. Warren Hile, of the First Christian church has announced.
Suomi is the native name of Finland.
Women's Basketball Will Be at 9 Tonight
It will be seniors against freshmen and juniors versus sophomores in the women's basketball class team games at 9 tonight in Robinson gymnasium, according to Miss Ruth Hoover, physical education professor. Both games will be played at that time, she explained, to avoid conflict with the Varsity basketball game in Hoch auditorium.

Pauley 'Considers Withdrawing Name
Washington (UP) -Edwin W. Pauley today agreed to "take under advisement" a suggestion that he withdraw his nomination to be undersecretary of the navy.
The suggestion was made by Sen. Leverett Saltonstall, R., Mass., after Pauley had demanded without success a public apology from Sen. Charles W. Tobey, R., N. H., for the charge that Pauley sold oil to Japan shortly before Pearl Harbor
Saltontall asked Pauley whether if the Senate naval affairs committee vindicates him in the oil sales, he would be willing to ask President Truman to withdraw the nomination. Saltontall said Pauley need not answer if he didn't want to.
"Let me take that under advisement," Pauley replied. "That suggestion is not unique. I've seen it in all the papers. I just want to remind you that I'm still here."
Jerusalem. (UP)—Police arrested five thousand Jews in the Lydda area today in an unprecedented hunt for the terrorists who attacked three RAF air fields last midnight and escaped after a running gun battle with British troops.
What's Good for Rats Can Do for Husbands
Elkhart, Ind. (UP)—Mrs. Rose Masuth, 38-year-old mother of four, said today she tried three times to kill her husband so she could marry their bearder, and finally succeeded by spreading rat poison on his peanut butter sandwich.
In her two previous attempts, Mrs. Masuth said she gave her husband an overdose of sleeping tablets and turned on gas jets while he was asleep.
Mrs. Masuth and the boarder, Leslie B. Marjason, 55, were arrested Sunday on a morals charge, and authorities said Mrs. Masuth confessed the slaying. The morals complaint was brought by Mrs. Masuth's oldest son, Donald, 20.
Chungking; (UP)—Twenty-five thousand Chinese students and professors staged an anti-Russian parade in Chungking today as reports of similar demonstrations came from Hankow, Peijing, Chengtu, Nanking, and Tsingtao.
65 Under Arrest In Race Riots
Columbia, Tenn. (UP) — Fearcrazed Negroes who had believed that lynching parties were out to get them were calmed today after a night of rioting and bloodshed in which seven persons were wounded.
Five hundred state guardsmen in full battle regalia patrolled the streets of the Negro section, maintaining order.
Sixty-five Negroes were under arrest and 12 were charged with "attempted murder." Those charged were believed implicated in the shooting of four policemen during the night. The other wounded were two white men and a Negro. The disorders were the worst racial disturbances here in 10 years.
Detroit, (UP)-Top officials of the CIO United Auto Workers reported late today that no settlement of the 97-day General Motors strike was in sight and summoned delegates from all GM local UAW unions to a national conference here Friday and Saturday.
Meanwhile in Washington, the government was reported to be studying a plan to seize steel stocks in the strike-idled GM plants and divert them to other auto companies
French To Close Spanish Border In Slap At Franco
Paris, (UP)—The French cabinet decided today to close the French-Spanish frontier at midnight Friday, ask America and Britain to join France in a break with the Franco regime, and refer the situation to the UNO security council.
Unanimous decisions by the government in a long, clamorous session brought to a head the mounting pressure in France for a clear-cut severance of relations with Generalissimo Francisco Franco.
Communists, Socialists, trade union organizations and the left wing press had been crying for a break with Spain at once—by France alone, if the United States and Britain would not join.
Communist members of the cabinet were reported to have urged strongly that the break be made now. Members of the Popular Republican party were holding out for more temperate terms and a single-handed move by France would be premature and probably ineffective.
probably need. The closing of the frontier will satisfy one major demand of the powerful General Confederation of Labor, and save the government possible embarrassment which might ensue if transport workers took matters in their own hands and refused to handle shipments to and from Spain.
The tension became more pronounced today with publication of news that four additional Spanish Republicans had been executed at Barcelona. It was the execution of 10 Spanish Republicans last week, after their conviction on various charges, that kindled the fire under the present boiling pot.
Partnership Insures Peace, Halifax Says
The "greatest insurance" for future world peace is the partnership of Great Britain and America, Lord Halifax, British ambassador to the United States, told a near capacity audience in Hech auditorium, this mornin
"If the United States and the British Commonwealth had stood together the past 25 years, and the world had known they were together, it might have prevented the wars and misunderstandings that occurred," the speaker declared.
Lord Lady Halifax, who are the guests of the University today, will return to Washington tonight. Lord Halifax will be replaced as ambassador in May by Sir Archibald Clark-Kerr.
"When they are able to build the top structure supplying the federal arch that will hold the British states and the Indian states together, they will be able to govern themselves," he continued. "One of the greatest charms of the Indian problem, is that the farther you are away from it, the easier it looks," he laughed
Regarding the problem of India, Lord Halifax said the question was largely one of the Indians inability to organize.
A mutual understanding between the two nations, not between individuals, is important, Lord Halifax said.
Reynolds, Morrow, Piper in Accident

K.U. Blows Cyclones Off Court To Win Big Six Crown, 69-41
Players 'Accept' Championship Calmly
BY DON PIERCE (K.U. Sports Publicist)
Like the prewar Yankees or Chicago Bears, Kansas' mighty Jayhawkers accepted their 12th Big Six basketball championship with happy reserve Monday after smothering Iowa State, 69-41, under a Niagara of points in hoch auditorium.
There wasn't any uniform tearing or hat smashing a la Babe Ruth and Dizzy Dean in the locker room as the laughing, steaming Jayhawks — Black, Schlindbacher, Peck, Owen, and Evans—filed into Robinson gym on the wave of their ninth consecutive conference triumph and their 18th in 19 contests this winter.
Most of the bantering took place in a "beat Oklahoma" atmosphere. The red and blue gang was happy over its title, of course, but every one of Phog Allen's fighting, hustling, slamming troupe, gave you the idea he wouldn't be completely satisfied until the Sooners were hurried Thursday in K.U.'s final hoop test of the season.
"Watch us go after those Sooners," yelled Otto Schnellbacher, the big, banging forward from Sublette who continued his late season surge with 14 points against the Cyclones. "We want that undefeated conference record."
"That's right," chimed in Owen Peck, the bobbing, soprano-voiced little quarterback who flicked in 10 goals against Iowa State for his biggest night of the season. "They'll be tough, the. We can't let down."
"And what a passer," said Peck.
"How does that Charlie do it," marveled Jordan Haines, newly-acquired rookie from Sabetha. "I don't see how a man can rebound with one-hand the full 40 minutes like that guy does and still have time to score 19 points."
"And what a plasser, sad Peck."
Black, a wheelhorse all season in every department of play, turned in another superlatively astounding game, whitewashing the board with that long rebounding claw which seems to magnetize the leather whenever he gets his fingers on it
"What about that record," someone asked Charlie.
"I'm not worrying about any record right now" the angular All-American rattled between sweatmatted hair. "The points will come for all of us if we play ball."
With his eight basket three-free throw performance Monday, night,
"The Hawk" moved within 16 points of Gerald Tucker's all-time conference scoring mark of 175 tallies erected in 1943.

You May Dance, or Drink Beer But Not Both, New Law Says
Iowa Stalling Halts Threat at Record
A new law passed by the board of county commissioners has set up new regulations for county businesses licensed to sell beer, prohibiting dancing in such places. If students want to combine dancing with beer, they will have to go out of Douglas county to do so.
Dancing without beer or beer without dancing. This is the prospect facing University students.
Roy G. Borgen, proprietor of the Dine-a-Mite inn, which draws a large crowd of University students
At least five places in the county outside the city limits are hit by the dancing ban. These are the Dine-a-Mite inn on West 23rd street; Indian Village, Route 3; the Blue Bird Tavern, Route 3; the Golden Arrow, Route 5; and the Alvin Deines cafe, 333 East 23rd street.
and townpeople said, "I don't believe the resolution, in-so-far as the ban on dancing is concerned, is wise, because adults and young people enjoy dancing as a popular form of recreation and will seek it in towns distant from Lawrence if not available nearby."
In explaining the reason for passage of the law, M. N. Penny, member of the board of county commissioners said, "We were merely setting up regulations similar to those which have been in effect in the city of Lawrence for a long time, with the idea of county establishments not having an advantage or disadvantage over similar businesses in the city. Certain conditions prevailing at some of the county beer-selling places, we felt, needed additional regulations to correct."
The eighth undisputed Big Six conference championship was captured by the Alpine Jayhawker quintet last night as they scored a 69-41 victory over the third-place Iowa Cyclones.
Kansas must yet tangle with the running-up Oklahoma Sooners Thursday at Norman before becoming official Big Six champs, but even if defeated by the southern team, K.U. will preside over the conference for the first time since 1943.
Stalling the last four minutes of the game after the Mt. Oread five reached the 69 point mark, the Iowa-Staters prevented the Jayhawkers from possibly breaking the all-time high of 74 points a game, made by the Cyclones last Monday night against K-State.
agilitie Owen Peck, flashy quarter-back and the only less-than-six footer on the starting quintet, pooled in 10 field goals to take high steering honors. Big All-America Charlie "The Arm" Black tallied 19 points with eight field goals and three charity tosses.
Before 10 minutes of the second half had passed Otto Schnellbacher and Black accounted for 13 more points and Hicks, the Cyclones starting forward, went out on fouls. The score rose to 54-30.
The alert Black, who may reach the all-time high individual scoring record in the conference, started the scoring last night with a tip-in after only a few seconds of play. Ron Norman, who nipped Oklahoma's chances of winning undiputate possession of the title by sending a field goal 90 seconds of play at Ames Saturday, came back with a long one-handed push shot to even up the game.
The count remained tied up to 5-all when Ray Evans, Owen Peck, and Black came in for three goals and a free throw to start the victorious march.

From Chaos to Co-op
The seasonal rumbling of dissatisfaction over the book and school supplies situation seems to have reached the proportions of a typhoon.
Former students shrug their shoulders and mutter, "It's part of the cycle' (Re: Dr. Wheeler) Veteran students, however, seem to be a little more articulate in their expressions of distaste.
Their amazement and disgust at the inadequacy and inefficiency in supplying students with needed equipment is easily heard, and is echoed over the Hill. The directness and earnestness of the veterans' criticisms may indicate that the apathy with which this situation is annually greeted is antiquated; action is in order.
The University's swollen enrollment must have some very important implications. If the students are correct in their assertions, one consequence is the absolute necessity of an improvement in the distribution of academic supplies.
The board of regents, and the University administration, in allowing the enrollment to expand, have placed upon themselves tremendous responsibilities to former and new students. The University is a community, and its officials cannot inflate it with hundreds of new students without safeguarding against scarcities and inadequacies which might result.
They are doing this admirably in their vigorous efforts to combat the housing shortage. They have also recognized their responsibility toward providing students with sufficient supplies at reasonable costs. Indication of this is their recent consent to the establishment of a co-operative book store, tentatively assigned space in the Memorial Union building, the center of the student community.
With permission for the store granted, the responsibility of establishing it lies with the students—probably students who so far have not worked on the project; it will be established at some time in the future when its current supporters are gone.
This month's chaos should convince every student on the Hill that the book store is something worth working for. The confusion should recruit several thousand cohorts for next year's job.—W.N.
How Ya' Gonna' Keep Him Outa' The Groove, After He's Seen Paree
The "hepcats" have a word for what Prof. Laurel Everette Anderson, University organist, has done for 18 years at the close of the annual Christmas Vespers.
He jams!
live-jargon for getting in the groove and improvising as you ___
Professor Anderson enjoys improvising, but admits that at one period of his career it was wiser to be orthodox. That was when he was organist and director of music at the famous American Church of Paris, about 20 years ago.
"They knew what the next note should be, and I didn't dare disappoint them," Professor Anderson smiled.
Organists from all over the world traveled to Paris for advanced training, and many of them attended services at that church.
Professor Anderson almost made a career of bank notes instead of musical notes. After graduation from high school in Racine, Wis., he was well on his way to a financial career in a local bank. But his love for music won, and he entered Oberlin college in Ohio, sacrificing money for music.
He received his master of arts in music degree in 1922, taught at Grinnell college for several years, then traveled to Paris for further study under Joseph Bonnett and Louis Vierne in organ, and Raul Lapprair in composition.
In 1927, he returned to the United States and came to the University as assistant professor of organ. Today he is the head of the department, professor of organ and theory and University organist.
The professor's hobby is cabinet-making, and he has won several awards for original design with his work. If he had the wood, he'd build a cabinet now—if he had the time.

Rock Chalk
By SHIRLEY LEITCH and KATHY McBRIDE
Sweet Dreams. Never let it be said that the Phil Gan's are lonely. It is rumored that they average eight boys to a room with eight other Fiijis' worldly possessions also in said space. The joke is all "effects" are kept in only one dresser and one closet. (But then looking on the bright side of things—eight makes for a good game of poker.) The boys claim that they don't mind sleeping in vertical beds but when it comes to finding spikes for storing the rest of the boys for the night they put their feet down. Their motto is—last one home gets the chandelier. To quote Art Hoffman, "and, brother, that ain't easy."
Funny Foundling. Lost, strayed, or stolen. One car from the Alpha Chi house left on the Theta front doorstep. When interviewed the Theta's gave but one statement, "No thanks, thanks a lot, but no thanks."
Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk, Yoo Hoo.
The true spirits of K.U. in the forms of Pat and Mike Winsor, Fig Newton, and Bob Mallonee, Sigma Chi's haunted the Missouri campus after the K.U.-M.U. game Friday night. The famous Rock Chalk yell echoed throughout Columbia between each Sigma Shy (???) serenade. All they needed was Bob Beeler's dog to hold down the baritone.
Double Trouble. This weekend at a colorful spot in Kansas City a bunch of Phi Psi's were watching one toe dancer cut a mean caper when Jack Gosnell piped up with the innocent statement, "I don't see how both of those girls can keep together so well."
Peanuts, Popecorn, Crackerjokes.
Wanted. Pertinent Poop for part time position peddling popecorn in Professor Crafton's Motion Picture class. Well (???)
Sad Situation. One of the more successful projects of the Jay Janes' date bureau turned out to be a Mutt and Jeff act. The gentleman must not have been sanforized because when he picked up his 6-foot date he had shrunk from the reported 6 feet 4 inches to a mere 5 feet 6, heels and all.
Picking on Peck. Saturday morning, cheerleaders were stowing things back into Mrs. Charlie Black's car in front of their Columbia hotel when they heard a terrified soprano voice crying "No, no boys. Don't do it—you wouldn't do it! Not to me!"
The damsel in distress was Owen Peck. The team was loading on its special bus across the street and Ray Evans and Otto Schnellbacher, having lifted Owen lightly to their shoulders, were in the act of putting him off the bus. They had been ribbing him for days about going to the vice-versa dance with Pi Phi cheerleader, Joan Woodward. This was the pay-off. They decided he should ride home with her.
Drumming up business? Phi Delt Harry McClure, famous for his traps, hasn't gotten over the strange girl who passed him on the campus the other day and said coyly, "Hello, drummer-boy."
The Voice Squeaks. Back safely in Lawrence the famous Sigma Chi became Pep King. After gazing at the nylons he was awarded, Owen said, "Hmmm, $1.55—Do I hear $2?"
On the bottom step of the bus the muscle men slipped, piling up in a puddle of rain water. But the joke was "止 on" Owen.

How to Stay Out of the Hospital

Clothes designers and life insurance companies frown upon overweight. The former establish clothes styles upon emaciated models; the latter repeat the true and lugubrious observation that too much fat shortens life.
The obese fall into two general classes: Those who eat with abandon and shun physical activity, and those who, although they may not euxhobbitantly, store food as fat instead of using it for energy. These latter are commonly called the glandular type of obesities.
The treatment of both is the same cut down on food intake. There is no easy way to lose weight. It requires an objective, a stern will and a little help from friends. It must more difficult if some from a large group of people who have heavy frames and who have kept them well padded.
You can't lose weight by exercise unless you reduce your food intake below the level of energy expended. A pat of butter will provide enough energy to let you climb Mt. Oread. But exercise during weight reduction is important to avoid flabby muscles and sagging waist lines.
Not every one can expect to fit the usual height-weight charts. There are too many individual variations in frame structure and development. Height-weight tables are only rough guides. The average K. U. coed arrives on the campus measuring 64 inches in height and 119 pounds in weight; the average man weighs 142 pounds and is 5 feet 9.
It is safe to say that a coed coulle add 20 pounds and a man 50 pounds without putting either of them in the overweight class, but it may put a strain on their clothes. If you sucker for weight gain, you might chin chin and a strain on the belt, then it is time to consult the weight charts and see where you are headed.
There are no reducing medicines. Drugs have been advertised to make you reduce your appetite or to speed up the rate at which you burn your food. Most of these are not only useless but they are dangerous.
in some cases deficiency of the thyroid gland contributes to storage of food in the form of fat. These cases must be sorted out carefully and even so they will not lose weight on thyroid treatment. Upon a rigid reducing diet added vitamins are sometimes advised.
This all amounts to a very simple formula: if you want to lose weight you must eat less food than is required for your usual physical activities. And it is useless to cheat on a reducing diet because the scales will reveal your failure to stick to the prescribed food intake.
The safest way to go about reducing is upon your doctor's advice. If you are in good health and too fat, a reducing diet properly graded will do you no harm and will faithfully result. If have a glandular deficiency he can prescribe for it along with the diet.
A worthy objective for a man is to control his weight so that when he gets to be 40 his chest measure will be appreciably greater than his belt line. And girls should remember that it is an old custom for the bridegroom to carry his bridge across the threshold—so watch your weight.

On the Fenski with MEG WENSKI
"How to win a game by stalling" was partially displayed by the Iowa State Cyclones last night as they held off the last four minutes and kept the powerful Jayhawkers from scoring a single point past their 69 count.
The small visitors were clever enough to stop driving in toward the center and stick to safe passes on the edge of the shooting circle. Several times the Cyclones refused charity tosses in order to keep the ball on their side of the court.
While stalling, the Cyclones racked up seven points and prevented the Jayhawkers from handling the ball for a score even once. In an attempt to retrieve the ball Kansas added three fouls to its mounting list, and gave the Cyclones two additional points.

have.
The argument used by officials was that the civilians had purchased special tickets at the athletic business office for seats for the game. The sailors said they also had purchased tickets and were not obligated to give up their positions just because someone "accidentally" oversold the tickets by several hundred.
Sidelights on the Crowd. A half hour before the starting gun, Hoch auditorium was packed with people, some standing even in the third balcony. An attempt to give a section occupied by sailors to civilians when the Navy men refused to leave.
On the Coaches, Coach "Phog" Allen, Number 2 basketball coach of the nation, drank his usual quarts of water to cool his temper, while the quiet, little man behind the cyclones, Louis Menge, calmly watched his little fighters get under the Jayhawkers' skin by preventing them from breaking the conference scoring record.
On the Players. Ray "The Body" Evans, all-American guard in 1943, passes the basketball like he does a football. Jack Ballard, who traveled with the M & O Smokies until two weeks ago, does more for talking up the game and keeping up the spirit of the boys than any other member of the team. Johnny "Little Phog" Fittsch, is another pep promoter who keeps the boys in the fighting spirit. Charlie Black, now leading the Big Six in individual scoring, needs only 16 more points to break the conference all-time individual scoring record. Jim Stark, fourth in the Big Six scoring list with a 12.0 average, was absent from the court during most of the game because of an injured back.
The objective of the NCAA playoffs is to put a western champion selected at Kansas City against an Eastern champion selected in New York, to play off a mythical national title in Madison Square Garden. Oklahoma A & M was the winner last year.
On the NCAA. Kansas and Oklahoma A & M are chief contenders in the Missouri Valley to represent this section in the NCAA Western playoffs in Kansas City next month.

KU's terrific blasting of the game, hustling, trying Cyclones pushed their home court average for the season up to 62 points per game and lifted the overall mark on home and foreign courts to an astronomical 56.0, highest in Kansas cage annals. The Hawkers 69 point detonation against the Menzene pushed them over the 65 point mark for the third consecutive home game.
"Those boys who came back from the service have what it takes," the coach explained. "Evans, Black, and Schnellbacher joined the squad and they trained and fought like freshmen. "They carried the load, of course, but Clark and Peck certainly did their share, especially against Iowa State."
His teammates could not get over Peck's performance. "Where is that little ball-hawk," laughed Hoyt Baker, the blond football fullback who played briefly at forward. "Ten buckets—wow."
"How about that Evans," said Don Auten, another newcomer who played in the waning seconds. "That guy rebounded like a team. He killed 'em, didn't he."

Truman Names Krug Secretary of Interior
Washington. (UP)-The nomination of Julius A. (Cap) Krug as secretary of the interior appeared headed for senate approval today. President Truman named Krug, 38-year-old public power expert from Wisconsin, as secretary of the interior late yesterday.
Krug, if confirmed, will take over on March 15, the post that was held for 13 years by Harold L. Ickes.
Krug, who never has held a political office, was war production board chairman in the final months of the war and a key executive in the Tennessee Valley authority for five years.
Washington. (UF)—Economic Stabilizer Chester Bowles told congress today he hoped the government's new wage-price policy, would result in no more than a 5 per cent increase in the cost of living within the next year.
"I think the 10 per cent increase estimated by Marriner S. Eccles, federal reserve chairman, is rather high." Bowles said.
Eccles made his estimate in testimony yesterday before the house banking committee.
40,000 Reds Reported Entering Manchuria
Mukden. (UP)—The Red army appears to be digging in for a long stay in Manchuria, and there are reports that another 30,000 to 40,000 reinforcement troops have arrived
reinforcement troops have arrived by sea at Port Arthur.
The Russians are bringing in big quantities of heavy tanks and artillery and are building an air base between Dairen and Port Arthur, unofficial information disclosed.
There is every indication that the occupation army intends to remain at least through the summer, and probably until the last American quits China.
Washington. (UP)—The government announced today that meat prices will be increased $1 \frac{1}{2}$ per cent for the average family within the next month as a result of wage increases in the meatpacking industry.
Buenos Aires. (UP)—Dr. Jose Tamborini took a lead of nearly two to one over Col. Juan D. Peron in the Argentine presidential election today on the first returns from rural precincts.
Washington. (UP)—Senators investigating the shortage of cotton clothes were told today that a lot of printed cloth is going into feed sacks instead of dresses because manufacturers can make more money that way.
Raise Service Pay Secretaries Suggest
Washington. (UP)—Secretary of War Robert P. Patterson and Secretary of Navy James Forrestal, today asked congress for a 20 per cent increase in the pay and allowances of the officers and enlisted men of all the armed services.
Washington. (UP)—The state department denied today that there was another secret clause in the Yalta agreement binding the United States to return to Russia all Soviet citizens who left that country after 1929.
1629. The existence of such a clause was reported by a Vatican source in connection with the recent condemnation by Pope Pius XII of forced repatriation in Europe.
Replace Franco Washington Asks
London (UP)—The British foreign office at London has received a note from the United States condemning the Franco government and recommending establishment of a temporary "caretaker" government to replace the Spanish dictator, Franco.
The United States would like to see this body hold elections permitting the Spanish people to decide what kind of government they want, and would want the temporary government to agree to release political prisoners and permit the free entry into Spain of political exiles.
Sources said that the United States note indicated that it felt a "caretaker" government must be based on the most stable elements in Spain if civil war and another blood bath such as occurred when the Franco regime took power, was to be avoided.
The French government tackled the Spanish situation again 24 hours after ordering the Franco-Spanish frontier sealed. Spain countered today by stopping all traffic across the internation bridge at Hendaye.
Meanwhile France is sending new proposals to the United States and Great Britain today for a joint break in relations with the Franco regime.
Informed quarters in Madrid said Spain had closed or would close the entire frontier with France at any time.
A French spokesman disclosing the fresh representations to America and Britain for a three-power break with Madrid, was understood to have indicated that the note contemplating the whole Spanish question be submitted to the UNO Security Council.
One More Day to Give To the Polio Drive
Have you contributed your share? Today is the last day of the poliomyelitis drive here at the University.
Members of Jay Janes will collect money at the organized houses, and those students not living in organized houses may make their donations at booths located in the Union lounge, and the center foyer of Frank Strong hall.
Although no definite quota has been set, a goal of 50 cents a person has been asked, Betty Jo O'Neal president of Jay James, said.
Musical therapy, offered at K.U. for the first time this semester, is designed to show the influence of music on human behavior, and for healing certain psychopathic cases. The 3-hour course, in its embryonic stage in this country, is taught here by E. F. Caston, assistant professor of music education, and is open to seniors and graduate students.

A total of $59.20 has been contributed to the infantile paralysis drive by 40 faculty members, Dr. Forrest C. Allen, chairman, said today. The faculty drive deadline has been extended until Tuesday to give tardy contributors more time to mail in their money, he added.
An alluring "she" and a fascinating "he" will be elected by the student body in a contest sponsored by the "Bitter Bird" magazine beginning Friday. Pictures of the winners will appear in the magazine upon its publication.
two or more candidates must be nominated from each house in this campus-wide search for allure and fascination, Terry Herriotty, editor-in-chief, said. There will be no limit to the number of candidates.
The deadline for names and pictures of candidates is Friday when registration for those wishing to vote will be conducted in booth #40136256 of the campus. Students must present their activity books to register.
Men will elect the alluring "she" and women, the fascinating "he." Winners will not be announced until the publication of the magazine. The "Bitter Bird" will also sponsor a poll to find the most "datable" girl and boy from each organized house.
Students to Discuss Independent Merger
A series of conferences to discuss merging the ISA and Independent parties on the campus will begin next week, Lois Thompson, Independent president, announced today.
The ISA history will be discussed by Lorraine Carpenter, president. Lois Thompson will summarize the activities of the Independent party since its beginning last year, it divisions, and its relation of ISA.
The proposed plan, for consolidation of the parties will be presented by Jack Nichols. Rosemary Harding, political chairman, will explain the affect of consolidation on the parties.
The meeting will then be open to discussion of the proposal.
Disabled Students Get Parking Priority
Physically disabled students who have a doctor's permit from Watkins Memorial hospital will have top priority in obtaining parking permits, Emily Stacey, student chairman of the parking committee, said yesterday.
yesterday.
If the present amount of parking space is insufficient to take care of essential applications, some of the permits granted last fall will have to be revoked, Miss Stacey added. Students commuting from Sunflower, Oskaloosa, Baldwin, Topeka and other nearby towns will rate high on the priority list.
Robert Taft, Jr., who will receive his master of arts degree in chemistry in June, has accepted an assistantship at Ohio State university.

Winners will be announced March 8, the Contest Editor reported, and some of the winning cartoons will be reproduced in the Daily Kansan.
Faculty Garden Plot Will Be Site For Housing Units
The faculty garden plot, south of the Hill and back of the University power plant, will be site of the 110 demountable housing units which will be erected soon, the administration revealed today.
This area, part of Gowan's tract, will eliminate part of the gardens over which professors huffed and puffed (and reduced waistlines) during the war.
Prof. George M. Beal, University architect, is planning the two-story frame buildings, which will be equipped with gas, cooking, and heating units. The housing will be "arranged in convenient and attractive pattern," he said.
Sunflower Wives Get Club Room
The units, available to veterans only, will be obtained from the regional Federal Housing agency, at Ft. Worth. Fourteen units will accommodate six families, five will house four families, and two will take three families.
A club room in the Sunflower Village nursery school has been arranged for wives of K.U. veterans living there, the University housing office announced today.
Equipped to accommodate 80 persons, the room will provide space for educational and recreational activities. It has a kitchen attached. Activities now planned for it include discussions of child care, child psychology, and block printing.
Mrs. W, D. Thompson, Jr., the former Jean Moyer, a K.U. alumna, has been named acting president of the wives' group at the Village. The group will cooperate with the K.U. Dames in HIll activities.
Buchler to Illustrate 'How to Build An Oration'
Prof. E. C. Buehler, of the speech department, will speak on "How to Build an Oration" at 4:30 p.m. tomorrow in Fraser auditorium.
Don't Laugh at That Clavicle, 'Cause It Really Isn't Humerus
Pardon me, Miss, but—
The talk is designed to aid those students interested in entering the University Oratorical contest March 12. Cash prizes totaling $25 will be given for the best original, 10-minute oration. The contest is open to all undergraduate.
Taron is in the cave.
Yes, it is a bone, but, darn it, I thought I got it up my coat sleeve before you saw it!
This is what members of the physical therapy class say every time they get caught with a bone showing. And there are a lot of bones showing these days.
When you see one of these young women wandering around the campus with a bone and mumbling in coherently to herself, don't think she has lost her mind. To her, the humerus isn't humorous at all; it is the bone above the elbow, and it has a "jillion" parts that have to be
learned before class tomorrow.
Those two trays at the table across the cafeteria belong to physical therapy students. On one is a scapula (shoulder blade, to you), and the other is decorated with a radius and ulna (bones of the lower arm). The students are talking—with each other—but to their bones.
The crooked bone that just went into Lil's coat pocket is a clavicle. She knows every groove, curve, and bump on it now, and is returning it to class to tell the instructor what she thinks about the collar bone.
Carrying bones around the campus isn't so bad, but just try to get on speaking terms with them. Oh, bro-ther!
Sauer Gets Backfield Assistant
Another grid assistant will be named soon, Quigley said.
Bradford will start hsi new duties Friday under Gauer Sauer, newly appointed head coach for K.U., when he arrives from Paris, Kentucky.
Henry "Vic" Bradford, who filled the quarterback slot when Alabama went to the Rose Bowl in 1938 and once played in the New York Giant's baseball outfield, was appointed backfield coach today by E. C. Quigley, athletic director.
Bradford was discharged Feb. 12 after serving 34 months in the navy as a lieutenant.
A three-sport performer for the Crimson Tide, Bradford lettered in football, baseball and basketball. He captained the 1938 Tide club grid and gained all Southeastern Conference honors his last two years.
He broke into organized baseball with Hartford of the Eastern league, moved up as playing manager of the Sally circuit at Jacksonville in 1942, and served a brief stint with the Giants in 1943. He entered the service in May during that season.
Bradford is a big 190-pounder stretching to the 6 foot 2 inch mark. He is 30-years-old, married, and has a 21-month-old daughter.

The Fourth Republic
Little short of pathetic is the current political and economic situation in France. "The Glory of France" is a phrase now found only in history books, and one wonders whether France is not already permanently relegated to the position of a second-rate power.
The establishment of the Fourth Republic some months ago seemed an inevitable step in French political reconstruction. However, the question of whether or not it will succeed in establishing French prestige at home and abroad, and whether France, as a representative republic, will be able to pick up the threads of national progress and rise again can be answered only with the passage of years.
But several considerations suggest that the Fourth Republic, not through lack of desire or good intentions, but because of its very nature, cannot succeed.
First, there is the element of a great tradition. While the life span of the three former republics totals about 85 years, the life span of monarchial governments totals over 1200 years. Regardless of what the French monarchy may have become at the time of the Revolution in 1789, it was that monarchy, absolute and self-determining, which accomplished the consolidation of the French nation, and enabled her to become and remain one of the world's great powers.
Only political sophists suppose that that consolidation could have been accomplished by any other system of government. That the monarchy became tyrannical, self-centered, and corrupt after France's zenith and unification were attained in 1661, seems not so much a criticism of the French monarchy as such, but rather a criticism of an absolute monarchy which had justified its existence by achieving political integration, but continued to exist in a period when a royal system of the British type might not only have averted the Revolution, but gone far in permanently stabilizing French politics.
But the monarchy, at its best, demonstrated its ability to maintain stable government and assure national greatness. In France, this ability seems characteristic only of monarchy, though the three republics have tried to emulate it.
The temperament of the French people themselves is another factor which bodes ill for the future of the Fourth Republic. The average Frenchman has shown on the one hand a consistent devotion to a form of Caesarism best exemplified by Napoleon, and on the other hand a passionate hatred of political anonymity.
Obviously these two facets of the French temperament are irreconcilable, and one must give way to the other before stable, permanent government is possible. Caesarism in France has enjoyed spasmodic success. Couversely, weakness and eventual downfall have been characteristic of the attempts at government based on popular sovereignty.
We are making an argument neither for a monarchial restoration nor for authoritarian government of any kind. But history and psychology tend to suggest that only a government based on the spirit of monarchy can succeed. This spirit includes a recognition of the country's past and the creation of a central and eternal source of political activity such as that found in the royal crown.
A sense of honor as Montesquieu defined it, seems to be necessary—the recognition by Frenchmen of the fact that all cannot rule and that those who do should be regarded not as politicians but as the personification of national integrity.
The Fourth Republic shows little likelihood of developing in this manner. It will probably exist and perish, as did the Third Republic, by walking the path of political petulance, basing its policy on political expediency rather than that of national welfare, professing a "liberalism" which is little better than an organized hypocrisy, and in the end sinking into an abyss of national nothingness.-O.R.
Autograph My Egg?
A girl came up in the fountain the other day and asked us to write our name on an egg.
She had the egg; and as surely as she proceeded from booth to booth with it, another siege of women's pre-initiation weeks— hell, courtesy, and what have you—had started on the Hill.
Last semester the Inter-fraternity council felt that taking a pledge's time from his studies to crawl upstairs backwards and say poems over the telephone was inconsistent with the ideals and goals of the whole fraternity system. But the women weren't so perspicacious.
A few Greek houses are content to scare their freshmen for a day and then throw a big feed for them at night. But many sororities still hold their pledges to the grand old tradition—four or five days of eating with egg beaters, wearing false freckles, polishing trophies at 3 a.m. and doing callisthenics at 4.
The point of it all? Well, there doesn't seem to be any. Just try, if you will, to work out a point to being tied on a pole with 17 others and living in unison with them for a day.
The only argument used consistently for hell week is that it is a tradition - pledges really look forward to it. Without it their freshman year wouldn't be complete.
Perhaps Pan-Hellenic council is one family which would do well to be more conscientious about keeping up with the Joneses. The Joneses, in this case belong to Inter-fraaternity council.
Lose Your Shirt Shooting Craps? The Vets Have None to Lose!
"Grab that gall! Ask her where she found that size 16 white shirt!" yelled Gene Miller.
Yes, the veterans are having a tough time with their clothing problem.
"Hank" Brown says, "I was lucky,
I grabbed my one and only shirt just
as the clerk was putting it on the
rack."
Since the servicemen received their discharges, many have been astonished by the lack of men's clothing, most just taking it with a grain of salt and saying, "Well, wearing this uniform another few months won't hurt—much!"
Even shoes are being converted. G.I. ingenuity, aided by a paint brush, has changed much government issue footwear into flashy saddles.
So that's just what they are doing. Bill Norris came out wearing a blue cashmere sweater, green marine trousers, key chain and all.
most ex-servicemen are jealous wrecks when they see the girl friend in jeans with a beautiful white shirt hanging to her knees. To protect herself, the flustered female stammers, "You wouldn't like it anyway. It doesn't hold starch."
Great consolation for the shirtless male!
"Are you still wearing QD shirts?"
received various answers ranging from "Yes," to "Just a minute, I'll loo—!" John Toehy drawled "This clothing situation she' is rough, but I'm not wearing OD shorts." Ray Hartley, psychology lab instructor, laughed. "I still have two pair left." At this Johnny Ouer queried. "What do you do on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays!"
No merchandise, no nothin' 'il our shipment comes in, is the cry of the clothing stores. Most of the stores try to help the clothing seekers, even though they have nothing to offer in the line of pajamas, shorts, topcoats, and shirts, where most of the shortage lies.
The clerks take the veterans' names, sizes, and phone numbers in case. However, as one man put it, "First here, first served. We don't have enough merchandise to carry on a special program for veterans, but most of them take it with a grin."
As spring comes to the campus we will see the vets strolling to class, dancing, and jellying in their hybrid dress. But as one member of the opposite sex sighed, "We don't care what they wear. We're just glad to have them back."
Letters to the Editor
★
Ex-Corporal Criticises 'Battle Dress' on Campus
★
To the Daily Kansan: Since returning to school, the writer has seen so many men wearing either partial or complete officer's uniforms, that he isn't certain whether he is at Lawrence or Ft. Benning. He has also seen men wearing "battle dress," usually unessential items of wearing apparel, which demonstrate that the wearer has seen action and that he desires all who pass by to be aware of this fact.
Perhaps one of this hodge-podge of civilian and service garb may be due to the clothing shortage. Still, it seems unusual that ex-officers have experienced so much more trouble than ex-enlisted men in securing civilian clothing.
The writer, an ex-corporal, is willing to give his former lords and masters the benefit of the doubt. After spending some time in Europe, under conditions that might be described as trying, he realizes that among the officers, as well as among the lowly EM's, there were some good men along with some monumental phonies.
The point is this—isn't it about time that we cease this brandishing of past glory, either of rank or warlike achievements?
You won't find many of the men who saw the war up close flourishing their trophies, because to them victory did not bring elation, but a knowledge of the tremendous cost; to them, the remembrance of Salerno or Normandy beaches or Remagen bridgehead does not bring a feeling of triumph, but the memory of friends who died there.
It has been the writer's experience, in conversations with men who have really seen the worst of the late war's battlefields and the men who flew dangerous missions, and from his own personal knowledge, that the only true glory is with the men who cannot return to profit from the achievements so dearly bought.
State Passes Up Cut
New Orleans (UP) — Operators of slot machines in Louisiana pay the federal government over a million dollars yearly in license fees, yet the state government does not collect a penny tax because the machines are claused as "illegal gambling devices."
In memory of these friends who cannot share whatever gains we have made by defeating our enemies, most of the real veterans have respectfully stored their uniforms away in mothballs.

Retiring Greek Leader Asks for Understanding
To the Daily Kansan: The question of the Greek-Independent friction has long been prominent, and for the four years I have wanted to express my own ideas on the subject. Now, I think my opportunity has come.
After serving as President of the Women's Pan-Hellenic council for a year, I have come into close contact with both Greek and Independent girls and have formed many opinions and acquired many ideas.
Primarily, we are all working together for a common cause, that of being loyal members of our school and of sharing all the good and the bad. Both of the groups have a rightful and just place and. I feel, offer the same advantages and disadvantages.
Can't we keep the primary interest in mind in doing our daily tasks, and can't we forget our petty, unjustified and unfair criticisms and thought of the others?
It is true both groups are closely-knit organizations, each hanging together in order to have a better understanding and knowledge of its fellow-members.
Certainly while I have been associated with Pan-Hellenic I have done all in my power, and with full co-operation, to extend and enlarge the opportunities open for both groups. We have re-established the old custom of exchange dinners, the annual舞场 open to all university students, and have given $2000 to Dandolem Chapel. And of course, we have worked to develop among the sororities themselves a feeling of co-operation and understanding rather than one of competition.
For years sororities have been recognized as always being dependable and willing to come to the aid of the University when called upon to do so. This doesn't mean praise is exaggerated, but it means they are always ready to help in things expected and desired by the University of all its students.
I can sincerely say that I enjoyed my duties as president in that I made many new friends and had valuable experiences. I leave the University this year hoping for a better understanding and appreciation between the two groups, and knowing that it is possible.
JANE MILLER College Senior.
Olathe Naval Base to Stay
Olathe—Assurance of the future of the Olathe naval air station was given last week when the navy disclosed plans for the base to remain in commission. The Olathe base has been named as one of 15 naval air stations in the United States designated for the exclusive mission of training air reserves.

Weather strip-teasing. Helen Tode, Sigma Kappa, spent much time worriving about how to improve the let of the working classes lately since her major is sociology. She finally hit upon the solution to all of the ills of the impoverished and undernourished. She decided that by simply installing weather stripping on the doors and windows of all third class dwellings there would be fewer cold, better health, and finally the elimination of unemployment altogether.
New student. It seems that the fabulous "Kilroy" has finally returned from the wars and is now enrolled at K.U. Many people have often wondered just who Kilroy is and what he looks like. We would like to offer the suggestion that he is a gremlin, a very small gremlin at that. A campus office received a large envelope in the morning mail the other day. When it was opened it was found to contain nothing but a large sheet of paper which stated, "Kilroy was here." Small guy, this Kilroy, to creep in and out of letters.
Ooh what you said!! Bobby Davis, College freshman, has been dating a member of the Occupational Therapy club lately. She had been trying to invigle him into attending some of the lectures for some time, and finally succeeded in persuading him to attend the lecture by Professor Speidel on the anatomical study of human cells in motion. When several of his roommates asked Bob where he was going, he replied in all seriousness, "Oh, we thought we'd go out and study anatomy tonight."
To obtain more information on this vital subject, she sent off to various building material concerns to gath data. For weeks the Sigma Kap- house was flooded with timely parchlets on weather stripping. Then the crowning event happened. Several days ago a long sleek sedar pulled up before the door and an important-looking man stepped out. Entering the house, he inquired if Mrs. Todd, the housemother, was in. It seems that he had received quite a bit of correspondence from "Mrs. Todd" about weather stripping. Perceiving a prospective customer, he had driven out to make an estimate on the house.
All veterans enrolled in the University under the servicemen's adjustment act are requested to meet with Mr. Stith of the Veterans Administration in Kansas City, at the Military Institute Auditorium or 7 p.m. in the Frank Strong auditorium, the same day, whichever is convenient.

Hopkins Hall Named For First K.U. Coach
IRELAND
SUE TAYLOR
From football players to women aeronautical technicians to K.U. coeds, this is the tale of Hopkins hall.
***
The hall, located at 1011 Indiana was named for Dr. Edwin M. Hopkins, first football coach of the University. During his 48 years of service to the University, Mr. Hopkins served in various fields. Coming here in 1889 as a professor of English, he later managed and coached the University's first football team in 1891.
Hopkins hall, opened during the fall semester of 1942, first housed football players and operated on a cooperative basis similar to that of Battenfeld hall. Later, it was used by women studying to be aeronautical technicians, under the supervision of the University. After five of these groups had occupied the hall, it was converted into a women's dormitory.
Mrs. J. W. Wallace has been the housemother for the past three years. House officers are Sue Taylor, president; Bonnie Simpson, vice-president; Geraldine Powers, secretary-treasurer; Jewell Mishler, re-

Secretaries Run The Business, Othman Insists
By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN
(United Press Staff Writer)
Washington. (UP)—Now I know why I get the bum's rush when I call upon a big business man; his secretary hypnotizes him into giving me the business.
She could, if she wanted, make him believe that I'm a Missouri cousin of President Truman. Only she doesn't want. I could give her nylons, or chocolate drops or French pertume, but it wouldn't help. She'd take my gift; 'I'd still be a bum.
The business world is a woman's world and I am the fellow who is positive of it. These ladies at the outer desks even have studied the technique of how to tell a lie and get away with it. A more man has not got a chance.
What happened was that I bumped into Mrs. Adria C. Lynham, a handsome and persuasive lady. She said her School for Secretaries here was celebrating its 25th anniversary today, her 12,000th student was about to graduate, and women in business are making progress. They are indeed. I am scared of 'em.
Mrs. Lynham said if I wasn't doing anything better, and she doubted it, I could learn something by attending her classes. I said I was not interested in typewriting and shorthand. So I spent the day in her classrooms, observing the fair sex being instructed in the art of putting the male, or dumb, sex in its place. The professor at the morning session was Mrs. Elizabeth Hamby. The name of the course was "principles of persuasion."
She said it was bad business to tell visitors the boss was out, because he might step in at that moment, looking for a pair of scissors.
"Then you have three very embarrassed people on your hands, including yourself." Mrs. Hamby said. "It is much better to say your employer is too busy to see anyone, even if you know he is cutting paper dolls."

Here's The News From Your Home Town in Kansas
Yokohama Was Next On Boeing's Bomb List
Wichita (UP) — A "grand slam" project reportedly aimed at Yokohama was in the making when the atom bomb ended Japanese resistance, spokesmen for the Boeing Aircraft Company revealed today as the War Department took the project off the secret list.
The decision to undertake the job was made here last June 29 when a B-29 took off from the Wichita airport with a load of 22 tons of dummy bombs, the heaviest bombload ever carried by an airplane.
Tucked under each wing of the great plane were mammoth sand-filled dummy bombs, each 24 feet long and nearly four feet in diameter.
It was reported unofficially that the "Grand Slam" project was designed with Yokohama as its target and was a companion project to the preparation of B-29s for the atomic bombing.

ter a two-inch
Where two weeks ago the dry topsoil was ripped from the fields,
there was plenty of moisture as a two-inch rain moved out of the district.
A report from Garden City sait that the rain "may prove to be worth over $50,000,000." Garden City received about an inch, while to the east, at Pratt, two inches of slow rain soaked in. But wheat mer around Garden City called the 1.2 inch "more valuable than a two-inch soaker during the spring."

Farmer Veterans Want Kansas Wheat Land
Garden City. (UP) —Returned veterans were swarming over the western Kansas wheat belt today, looking for land to rent for spring crops and to work this summer for fall wheat sowing, but they were finding practically no land available. Land dealers said that scarcely a day passes without inquiries from former servicemen.

Young 'Lawyer' Wins First Case
Topeka—A youthful "lawyer" defended himself in police court recently and came out on top.
Douglas Jennings, 17-year-old Topeka High school student charged with following fire engines at too orange, chose to act as his own attorney. He asked police officers a few pointed questions, and testified he didn't know it was a violation of a city ordinance to park in the same block in which there is a fire, because he had arrived at the scene before police had blocked the streets.
Judge Eldon Sloan, impressed by the youth's defense, suspended sentence and commented that the case had been the best conduced in his court in a long time. Marlin Casey, assistant city attorney, added, "That boy ought to study law."

Don't Kill Rabbits, Leahy Tells Hunters
Praft (UP) — Dave Leahy, director of the State Forestry, Fish and Game Commission, today warned hunters who participate in wolf and coyote drives against wholesale slaughter of rabbits.
In recent weeks there have been many such drives in various parts of the state as farmers banded together to reduce the number of marauding animals.
"It is about time to make a protest against those who engage in cowork and wolf drives and who, while advancing through the fields, kill every rabbit before them," Leahy said.
"They've been leaving the rabbits lying on the ground without making any use whatever of them as food.
"Those conducting coyote and wolf drives should leave the rabbits alone as they are beginning to be a very scarce 'article' in Kansas."
Topeka (UP)—Former Gov. Harry Woodring today termed the extra one-cent gasoline tax, including non-highway fuel, a "crime" and demanded that legislature respond on the first day of its session. He called on Kansas Democrats to abolish the state income tax law, declaring that the sales tax, with proposed liquor traffic revenues, would give the state all the financial resources required.

Stars 'Too Pretty To Be Loved,' Hollywood Photographer Decides
Hollywood (UP) - Movie stars have been getting more glamorous every year until now most of them look like beautiful dolls in a show case, too pretty to be loved, says Arthur Miller, veteran movie photographer.
Miller, who has been photographing feminine contours for 35 years, and the movie girls were losing the realism men like.
"They look like they'd break if you hugged them," he said. "That scares a mere male away."
Miller said there were exceptions. For instance Miss Irene Dunne, whom he is photographing at present in "Anna and the King of Siam," which 20th Century-Fox is making from the Margaret Landon book.
In the old days, when Miller was filming "The Perils of Pauline" with Pearl White, the gals didn't look "so slick." he recalled.
"She's one of the most beautiful women on the screen," he said, "but she doesn't let beauty get in the way of realism. If a scene calls for her to look ruffled, she looks ruffed."
"Pearl White didn't care whether every strand of hair was in place, but she was so real that 'The Perils of Pauline' is still running in some parts of the world," he pointed out. "She got $85 a week for that role, and I got $35. At that, we were the highest-paid people in the movie business."
"When I first began in 1910, we were happy to get anything on the film," he said. "If you could see the people moving on the screen, that
Photography has helped to glamorize the girls, he reported, by the use of lights and shadows which create illusions of beauty or mystery.
Alston to Head New Choral Group
A choral group was organized on the campus last night by Sidney Lee Dawson, a student in the School of Fine Arts. The group is made up of 30 University men and women.

Tentative dates for the groups to appear in Kansas City and Topeka have been made.

Dawson said he would like to have four more men audition for the tenor and bass sections of the chorus.
Teacher Group Supports Atomic Bill
Support of the McMahon bill on atomic energy was voted by the K.U. chapter of the American Federation of Teachers at its meeting last week, Dr. Calvin VanderWerf, president, announced today.
The McMahon bill provides for the international distribution of basic scientific information regarding atomic energy "consistent with the foreign policy of the United States."
Atomic energy legislation was discussed at the dinner meeting held in the Memorial Union. A letter will be sent from the organization to the Kansas senators, supporting the McMahon bill which has been introduced into the Senate.
was excellent photography."
was excellecved. and Miller Times have changed, and Miller has won two Academy Awards for artistic photography.
Today's stars must be beautiful and well-groomed, Miller said, or the public would turn against them.
"People have come to expect glamour with a capital G." he said. "If the actresses now played scenes looking like Mae Murray used to when she thought it added to the realism, Hollywood would hear about it."
Stories of Graduates Killed Will Be Retold In Graduate Magazine
A card bearing a name, an address and a class year isn't just marked with a "deceased, killed in action" and tucked away in the alumni files, forgotten.
What of the life, the likes, the aspirations and the disappointments of the person listed on the card? It's the job of Fred Ellsworth, Alumni secretary, to find out.
The card of Lt. Neil Pennington, 42, Wichita, is marked "deceased in crash of Hawaii-based PBY patrol bomber, Feb. 1, 1945." And what of Neil Pennington? Let's go back to the days when he was in the fifth grade.
The first entry consists of two little poems published in the Gardiner school paper in Wichita under the name of "Neil Pennington." Later he made a hobby of collecting stamps and became a member of the Stamp club at the Alexander Hamilton Intermediate school in Wichita.
When he entered an essay contest on stamp collecting conducted by the Wichita Stamp club, three judges considered his paper superior and asked the paper superintendent if she thought he had written it himself. When she showed them some of his regular school work and he was awarded the prize.
His interest in writing led to a place on the staff of the high school paper, The Messenger. While in high school he was a member of the National Honor society. A scholarship plus proofreading for the Wichita Beacon, and clothing in stores, helped pay his way through two friends. Friends University at Wichita. He entered K.U. in February, 1939, for a pre-medic course. Neil left the University in 1941 to join the Navy.
He took a CAA course at the University and earned his private pilot's license. So determined was he to get into naval aviation that he went back three times for his physical examination.
Behind each of the cards in the Alumni office lies a life story of someone, a story which will be retold in a special edition of the Graduate Magazine. It will be published as soon as all of the stories are complete. Ellsworth said.

Pope Was 'Middleman' In '40 Peace Move, Vatican Paper Says
Vatican City. (UP)—The official Vatican newspaper Osservatore Romano has acknowledged for the first time that Pope Pius XII acted as middleman in an attempted German peace move in the early days of 1940.
Osservatore denied the Prague newspaper's assertion that the Anglo-German feelers were linked up with a plot against Russia or that the negotiations in which he was involved envisaged replacing Adolph Hitler with Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels.
The pontifix's peace role was disclosed by the Osservatore in reply to a recent article published by the Prague communist newspaper "Praze," which accused the peace minister of being a British politicoso" to have Germany turn her entire military machine against Russia.
It emphasized that the pope transmitted all the messages through "ordinary official channels" and at no point presented any peace plan of his own.
The Vatican organ said Pope Pius was approached by "certain important German circles" who asked him to transmit peace proposals to Britain. The German overtures, Osservatore said, were aimed at the ultimate overthrow of the Nazi regime
Woolens Need Soap
State College, Pa. (UP) — Don't spare the soap when it's time to wash your best woolen sweaters, a professor of textile chemistry at Pennsylvania State College advises.
"Too many people think they've got enough soap just as soon as they work up suds, but woolens, especially if they're badly soiled, require an extra heavy concentration," Dr. J. Fred Oesterling says.

January Strikes Cost 10 Million In Man Hours
Washington. (UP) - Strikes cost the nation around 10,000,000 man-days of work in January, the largest such loss on record, according to government estimates today.
The loss of work reflected the impact of the steel, General Motors, electrical and other strikes.
it dimmed an otherwise generally right economic picture. A Unitedress survey showed a gain in employment and unemployment (dissearning strikers). The increase inith was due to the expanding size the labor force as more service- men sought civilian jobs.
The industrial production index in January was off five points as strikes in the steel and auto industry spread shutdowns in other lines. The retail price index made a fractional gain. The farm price index took a small seasonal setback after several months of upturn.
The weekly average wage in the latest month for which figures were available was off slightly but average hours of work likewise showed decline.
Treasury spending continued to fall lower. Receipts almost equalled those of the previous month, and exceeded those of January last year. The deficit was lower.
'Hitler Lost Hope,' Eva Braun Wrote
Frankfurt (UP)—Eva Braun wrote to her sister last April 23—more than a week before the fall of Berlin—that Adolf Hitler had lost all hope, it was revealed today.
U. S. Occupation headquarters released Miss Braun's letter of that date in which she said:
Each day and each hour may be our last. The Fuehrer himself has lost all hope for a desirable conclusion. But everyone here, including me, will continue to hope as long as life is in us. It goes without saying, however, that we will not let ourselves be captured alive."
About a week after the letter was written, Miss Braun and Hitler were married, killing themselves a few hours later, as the Russians were completing the conquest of Berlin, according to the best available information.
Soviet Publication Attacks Politicians
Moscow. (UP)—The Soviet publication "New Times" today published a virulent attack on "reactionary" elements in the United States and Britain who, it said, are trying to prevent the economic disarmament of Germany.
The semi-official Russian publication specifically cited as "enemies of Germany's economic disarmament" 34 American senators who appealed to President Truman last December for an immediate increase in German food rations.

Jayhawkers Will Go To National Cage Meets-If Invited
Kansas has no reason to fear Oklahoma A. & M. and could measure up to the Aggies in every way at this time, Dr. F. C. Allen said today.
"We are definitely receptive to the idea of attending either the N.C.A.A. tournament or the Madison Square Garden invitational meet," Allen added, "But now, all our thoughts are directed on Oklahoma. We'll think about the tournaments when we come to them."
Allen has not yet been approached by National Invitation officials and does not know whether Kansas would receive an invitation to the tourney in Madison Square Garden.
If Kansas does not receive the N.C.A.A. bid and receives an invitation to New York, Allen is willing to shoot for the big city cage show if the team wants to.
News from New York indicated that the Oklahoma Aggies, 1945 N.C. A.A. champions, would represent the fifth district in the Westerns March 22 and 23, and that Kansas might be invited to the National Invitational.
However, no action will be taken until after the season is over. The Jayhawkers cap their season tomorrow night at Norman. The Aggies end their regular schedule March 13 against Oklahoma.
The Kansas quintet met a 46-28 defeat at the hands of the Aggies in the semi-finals of the All-College tournament at Oklahoma City during the Christmas holidays.

As for the fellows, in the interests of your scholastic careers, why not squire that blonde senior who instructs your math class to the Saturday night dance? You can't lose, and you might make an—.
Due to the increased enrollment and a temporary scarcity of professors and instructors, a number of smart seniors are taking over beginning classes in German, mathematics, and swimming and diving.
Betty Loeffler, College senior, teaches beginning German students. Lab instructors in the department include Jerald Hamilton, College junior, and Irma Spangler, College special student.

Band, Orchestra Are Best in Years—Wiley
"The finest in three years."
That's the way Russell L. Wiley, associate professor of music and band director, feels about his spring orchestra and band groups.
Beginning the season's tours will be a trip by the band Saturday to Kansas City, Mo., for the annual Big Six Indoor track meet.
Tentative plans for other trips include an all-day trip to Topeka for the orchestra in March, and possible trips to Iola, Coffeyville and Chanute.
University students will have chances to judge the caliber of this year's orchestra May 9 and May 27 and of this year's band May 20 at Hoch auditorium.
Some of the numbers to be played, according to Professor Wiley, are "Requiem" and "Fourth Symphony" (Brahms), "Cappricio Espagnol" (Nicholas Rimsky-Korsakoff), and the "Sorcerer's Apprentice" (a phonic poem by Michael Daetke). Featured in the spring concert will Allen Rogers playing "Concerto in E Flat Major" (Franz Liszt) for piano.
One hundred and ten pieces make up the band. The orchestra has 52 string pieces, 16 brass, 14 woodwinds, two percussion pieces, and one harp, for a total of 85 pieces.

China To Fuse Armies On American Plan
Chungking (UP)—A military subcommittee, advised by special U. S. envoy Gen. George C. Marshall signed an agreement today for fusing China's Nationalist and Communist armies into an American-style military machine.
Agreement on the plan was reached Friday by Gen. Chang Chih-Chung, government representative, and a leading Communist, Gen. Chou Enlai in a conference with Marshall.
The reorganization of the new army was scheduled to start immediately and be completed within 18 months.
University credit, Dale Rummer and Lois Tarklerhead, College seniors, are in there pitching with the poor Jay-hawkers who have not accumulated enough math work, such as elementary geometry and algebra.
In swimming, there is James McCoy, a veteran who has returned to the campus as a College junior after serving with the naval air corps. He will instruct men's swimming classes.

and make the honor roll, scholars.

News of Sunflower Village
By GEORGE RIPPEY
These first weeks of getting back into the swing of things on the hill are beginning to show by the lines in the faces of Sunflower residents, so perhaps moments of relaxation do have their place.
Some of the men already are taking advantage of the swimming privileges at the Robinson Gymnasium and seem to go for it in a big way. Particulars on what hours are open at the pool may be obtained at the office in the gym.
We can be getting our tennis rackets in condition also because it shouldn't be too long before ole man weather cooperates to the extent that we can get in a couple of games at the last afternoon bus to the village.
The wives of the students of Sunflower got the preliminaries to their activities organization off to a big mass meeting their first mass meeting at the village.
Ex-Sunflowerite Mrs. Jeanne Moody, who does such an excellent job of giving people discouraging news in a pleasant manner at the K.U. Housing Information Office, led the gals in the discussions of their problems assisted by Mrs. Jeannette Feigenbaum. While the exact sub-questions are not known to the general male population of the village, they discussed them for a couple of hours so it must be good.
Present plans call for a lecture on "Plastic's" to be given in the Grade School Auditorium at 8 tonight. Husbands are invited, and since this particular topic will be of interest to us both in living and working in our post-war world, a capacity turnout is expected.
The wives also are invited to attend the meetings of the Service Wives Club held at 2 p.m. each Friday in the USO building. Though this is called a "service" wives club, it is also called "a service" as eligible for membership and a fine chance to get acquainted with one's neighbors.
From all reports these meetings have been very entertaining for the women and those with children may attend by leaving the youngsters at the nursery next door to the meeting hall. There is a nominal charge for their care but many of the wives seem to think it is well worth the price to have a "maid's afternoon off."

Student's Wife Had 'Quiz Kids' In English Class
How would you like to teach a class with two Quiz Kids in it?
Mrs. Dorothy Simons, wife of Robert A. Simons, engineering sophomore, while teaching at the University of Chicago high school she had 11-year-olds Duskin and Jerdar Darrow of the Quiz Kid radio program game, in her seventh grade English class.
Blonde, dimuntive, Mrs. Simons said that she had no difficulty with the pain. They learned quickly, were very hard work to get than the usual number of questions.
Ruth Duskin, the Quiz Kid authority on the Bible and Shakespeare, had the highest I. Q. in the school. Jerard, explained Mrs. Simons, was an average student but had been drilled in his specialty, entomology.
Mrs. Simons taught the seventh and ninth grade English classes in this laboratory school where new teaching methods are tried. Many of the pupils in the classes were children of college professors which gave them an educational background. Such students were usually "eager beavers" in class, she said.

the men haven't received too much attention. The reason for this, of course, is the fact that they don't have any spare moments right now.
A good part of their time is spem trying to clear the cobwebs from the little gems of knowledge they possessed in the long, long ago and once they get the thinking machine back in the academic groove more time can be devoted to some gabfests or sports.

3,000 G.E. Strikers Demonstrate in Philly
Philadelphia. (UP)—A surging crowd of 3,000 electrical strikers, some giving the nazi salute and shouting "heil," was broken up and dispersed by charging mounted and motorcycle police today several blocks from the Eastwick plant of the General Electric Company.
Defying a court injunction against mass picketing for the second successive day, the parading pickets burst through an auxiliary police line of about 15 foot patrolmen before they met the full force of nearly 300 charging officers on a 50-foot wide railroad bridge.
In the brief but sharp malee which ensued, about a dozen strikers were injured and 17 others arrested.
Washington. (UP)—Iranian ambassador Hussein Ala said today that Iran may appeal to the United Nations security council if Russia fails to withdraw her troops from that country by Saturday midnight. The council meets in New York City March 21.
The last of 600 British troops in Iran were expected to leave by Saturday but there was no sign when the approximately 75,000 Russians would be recalled.
U.S. Denies Reports Of Ruhr Decision
Washington. (UP)—Veterans Administrator, Gen. Omar N. Bradley asked congress today to clear the way for raising the pensions of from 120,000 to 140,000 disabled veterans
Washington. (UP) -The state department denied today published reports from Frankfurt that the United States has decided to let Germany keep the industrial Ruhr valley, called the arsenal of Europe.
The French embassy said that until it receives an answer on this issue, the French government is not prepared to withdraw its veto of a unified government for Germany. Germany is now divided into four occupation zones, each with its separate government.
Chicago. (UP)—American motorists started out 1946 on an "inflationary market of death" with the third greatest number of accidents of any January on record, the national safety council said today.
He told the house veterans committee that the new disability pay schedule would mean average boosts of $17.25 a month for about 100,000 to 120,000 veterans of World War II and 23,000 of World War I.
Buenos Aires, (UP)—Col. Juan D. Peron, "strong man" and nationalist-laborite presidential candidate, maintained a slight lead today in the counting of scattered, inconclusive returns from the Sunday election...
Nuerberg. (UP)—American prosecutor Robert H. Jackson, today demanded a blanket war crimes conviction against all six ruling organizations of nazi Germany, opening the way for later trial and punishment of the thousands of "little fuehrers" of Hitler's Third Reich.
Jackson Calls For Trial of 'Little Hitlers'
He said conviction of the organizations as criminal bands would not automatically convict their millions of individual members but would establish a legal basis for trial of the underlings who committed or ordered personally many of nazidom's worst war crimes.
All Hands Helped To Win Conference Crown

K. U. has had basketball stars galore this season—at least five of them on the first team which forged into the Big Six conference championship this week. Pictured here, in the best camera study of the champions yet taken, are (left to right) Owen Peck, Otto Schnellbacher, Charlie
Black, Wendell Clark, and Ray Evans, the first five regulars. Their clasped hands are symbolic of the teamwork and cooperation which has marked the Jayhawker play in winning the league title all year. (Daily Kansan Photo by Duke D'Ambra)
Spain Sends Troops To French Border
BULLETIN
Washington. (UP)—Both Great Britain and France have agreed in principle to the U.S. proposal that the three powers issue a joint statement urging that a caretaker government replace the Franca regime in Spain.
Paris. (UP)—French press dispatches from Madrid today reported Spanish troop movements along the entire length of the sealed frontier, and one dispatch said soldiers of the Madrid garrison had been sent north toward the border.
A Bourg-Madame dispatch said that since yesterday morning all international traffic had been at a standstill. Spanish frontier authorities "barricaded themselves behind a thick barbed wire barrier," it said, and the Spaniards were carrying rifles and tommy guns.
All normal traffic between France and Spain had ceased several hours before the deadline set by the French cabinet to close the frontier at midnight tonight.
The Earl of Hallifax, British ambassador, was expected to deliver the British reply to the U.S. proposal today. British sources indicated their government's acceptance might be conditioned on a stronger statement assuring that there would be no actual intervention in Spain's internal affairs.
Tires and wheels
On the French side in that area,
no unusual precautions were taken,
and frontier guards and customs
men were on duty as usual despite
the lack of traffic.
I.S.A. Council Gains Four New Officers
Four new members were elected to the L.S.A. Council in its meeting last night.
They are Emily Hollis, vice-president: Lou Hommer, secretary; Shirley Wellborn, treasurer; and Norma Jephy, publicity manager.
Harold Stassen, ex-governor of Minnesota and 1948 presidential hopeful, will not be able to appear at the All-University convocation scheduled for March 18, Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, said today.
Stassen May Speak Later, But Not on March 18
Plans for a dance on March 16, and for a bridge tournament soon were discussed.
Arrangements are being made to have Stassen appear on another date, possibly in May, Nichols added.
Simpson to Play Organ Recital Sunday
Guy Criss Simpson, assistant professor of music theory, will present a vesper organ recital in Hoch auditorium at 4 p.m. Sunday.
The program will include "Dorian Toccata and Fugue" (Bach), "Romanze" from "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" (Mozart), "Prelude and Fugue in E" (Saint Saens), "Oeillet du Soir" (Vierne), and "First Organ Symphony" (Maquaire).
This recital will be the 120th vesper organ recital presented by the School of Fine Arts.
Champions Shoot at Third Unbeaten Big Six Season
Although their 12th Big Six championship has been safely captured, Kansas' power-packed Jay-hawkers will battle for their third unbeaten Big Six season in history 'onight with Oklahoma.
Twelve members of the Jayhawk quintet left last night to make the trip to Norman. The team will return Friday.
Possibilities of an Oklahoma win are dim, but the fact that the Kansas will be attempting to make their second clean sweep in four years, plus revenge for two defeats, will make the Sooners pull the Jayhawk feathers hard.
Sachem Chooses Four Senior Men

Sachem, national honorary scholastic fraternity, elected four senior men at a meeting with the faculty advisory committee in Dean Henry Werner's office this week.

35-32, in Kansas second home game. Paul Courté, freshman scoring season, the Oklahoma, will be the driver's seat for the Oklahmans and will be backed by a stronger team than the one which Kansas topped twice.
This was the mid-term election. Another election will be held just before honors convocation in the spring.
title in 29 seasons of Missouri Valley and Big Six warring.
Kansas again defeated the Sooners, 53-52 in Kansas' second home game.
Dick Reich, a pre-war veteran, tallied 18 points against Iowa State last Saturday, and will be in top form. Dayton Spaulding, who also joined the squad late also should be at peak time.
The addition of Ray Evans, all-American guard in 1943, has increased the guard defense two-fold. Schnellbacher's offensive playing has improved enough to make him high-point man with 22 points in the bucket at the Tiger game. Charlie Black. Wendell Clark and Owen Peck will be the other starters for Kansas.
The Sooner-Jayhawker battle tonight will be the third meeting of the season between the two Big Six contenders. Oklahoma dropped the first encounter by 27 points, S3-28, when Kansas took third place in the All-College tournament at Norman during the Christmas holidays.

What's in a Name
Students have heard two of the four speakers in the spring "big name" convocation series. On successive days they presented a respectably large audience to Dr. Arthur Compton and practically filled the house for Lord Halifax.
General reaction to both speeches was good, and yet there were many who were disappointed. Some students who had hoped for more than amusing stories, a few newsy details about the atom bomb, and vaguely stated, weakly supported generalities, reflected on the convocations with the feeling that both men had failed to give their best.
Dr. Compton dealt hazily with the heart of his subject. We were all aware of how the atom bomb has challenged the humanities. It has been preached since the day of Hiroshima.
His answer to the challenge was nothing new. His endorsement of the principles of education, co-operation, and the discovery of a worthwhile objective in life may have given them prestige, but students who think at all have had these ideas pounded into their heads day by day.
More important, his recommendations for developing international cooperation will surely be too slow to head off another war. He spoke as if he relied on the UNO to be able to set up the necessary international organization. Students of world peace remember the UNO as a pre-atomic age creation, laudable for what it has done and for its good intentions, but already obselete for the purpose of arresting society's mad stampede down the road to war.
Halifax, the retiring British ambassador to the United States, more nearly accomplished his purpose, plugging Anglo-American relations, but it was done more by what he is than by what he said.
We all considered it an honor to hear the distinguished Britisher, but he, too, failed to say anything important that we hadn't read or heard elsewhere. He could have skipped India and apologized for the British in Greece, in the Near East, in the East Indies, and in China if he wanted to negate our fears and suspicions.
Altogether, the two "big names" were disappointing because they strayed not from the beaten path, dealt not with unorthodox doctrine, and jeopardized not their high positions.
They were "big names." L.K.
A cartoon in the Chicago Tribune ridiculues Truman for misleading a blind Uncle Sam who carries the problems of the world on his shoulders. The cartoon charges the president with making appointments according to "a small time machine politics viewpoint." And would the Tribune recommend a big-time machine such as that which now strangles the city of Chicago?
The 'Other Side' in China
In spite of the signed truce between the Nationalist and so-called Communist forces in China, all is not well in that far eastern country. Our government has repeatedly voiced its support for the establishment of a democratic and progressive China. It is therefore important that we examine well and give fair consideration to the conflicting issues involved.
As trouble continues to flare up in China we tend to lose patience and lay blame to one side or the other. Often it is placed upon the Communist forces, not only because the term "communist" has a mental stigma for most Americans but because generally we know too little about that Chinese group. A few facts about those people may give us a new out-
The term "communist," as applied in this case is very misleading, for the Jook on the Chinese problem.
political organization of these people bears little resemblance to Soviet Communism and in many ways the Chinese Communists have achieved a greater degree of democracy and social and political freedom than Nationalist China has ever known.
Here are some of the things these Chinese have achieved in recent years in spite of a long and difficult guerrilla war against the Japanese.
The area they inhabit has been organized into four regions, each with its regional government. Delegates to those regional governments are chosen by popular vote, an innovation in Chinese history. Suffrage has been granted to all persons over the age of 18.
Private enterprise is encouraged under an economy they describe as "state controlled capitalism."
Free compulsory primary education is enforced and high schools and colleges, including a college for women, have been established. In many areas 80 per cent of the school-age children were literate according to a survey in 1944.
All political parties are recognized and members of any party may be elected to office, including the Nationalist-Kuomintang party. To help form a united front of all parties, the communist party restricts its membership to one-third of any elected body.
Meanwhile, Nationalist China has been slow in instituting social improvements necessary for the development of a democratic China.
As in all questions, the controversy is two-sided. The important thing is that we continually seek the truth of the issues involved and retain our sense of values and justice to help establish the united China vital to a stable Far East.—L.R.F.
So that they won't forget what the rush at the bookstores last week was like, students have taken it upon themselves to maintain that impenetrable jam at the door of Watson library between classes.
Rock Chalk Talk
By FRANK CURRY
Ah, well! A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. Marion Minor, journaliste extraordinaire, instructed all the Tipperary chillun to call her "Scoop." Aias, the nickname is now supplanted ignominiously with "Stupe." Nobody knows the sorrow. . .
What do they keep in Spooner-Thayer, anyway? One of the uninhibited denizens of Spooner-Thayer, Duane Postlethwaite, put a wistful sign on a milk bottle to the effect that contributions would be gratefully accepted by the "Society for the Care and Preservation of Aged and Decrepit Swiss Naval Officers."
Ah. education. The students in Mrs. Hadley's 4:30 p.m. algebra class listened patiently while she proved, algebraically, that an empty bucket is "just as good as a full one." As she finished triumphantly, having proved her point, the inevitable voice came from the rear.
"Sure," says a guy named Hank Curry, it's much better when you save to carry it.
Mrs. Hadley is not at all perturbed about the assignments she gives her class. She believes that each student wastes a great deal of time each day, anyway. The married vets in the class wonder how they can waste less time and keep their wives.
And silence reigns. The snoring of Tipperary's Virginia Shuss is quieted at last. Her roommate, Margaret Dean, has devised a sure cure for the moonlight serenade. Each time the music starts, Maggie drops a milk of magnesia tablet into the open mouth of her yodeling roommate. The snoring stops, oddly enough.
The campaign was a smashing success. The drive has网送 to date; Missouri tax tokens, I. O. U.s., and even a few bus slugs. Give generously, brother, someday YOU may need help.

Cora Lou Child was drinking hot coffee as quietly as anyone drinks hot coffee and waiting for some of her Kappa sisters to show up, when a young man introduced himself as Arthur Johnson, and sat down in the booth with her. He told her that he was a veteran and that he had done a number of strange things in his life (giving illustrations). Also that he talked constantly for 30 minutes and then left. Corky hadn't even said hello.
Building up whose morale? The full page picture of Otto Schnellbacher has been clipped from the last issue of the Jayhawker and pinned up on the wall of the men's gymn. The caption "Miss Robinson gymnasium of 1946."
Letter to the Editor
An eye for—business, Scotty Knox, a Fiji who has had a honeymoon, was sent by the powers that be to Sunflower village for a pictorial feature on veterans for one of the student publications. But somehow, Scotty got sidetracked. He turned up later with a dozen glamour shots of women.
“Well,” Scotty explains weakly, “they were all veterans’ wives.”
'Gashouse Gangs or People?' —Student Lambasts Prohibition
Editor's note: The publication of the following letter does not indicate that the views expressed are those of the Daily Kansas. as are other letters to the editor it is offered only as an expression of student opinion.
At the very mention of the name, "prohibition," I am forced to laugh. What does it do? It certainly doesn't prohibit anything. I wager a free ride to K.C. against an old economics book that I can purchase a fifth of Scotch in any town in the state with little or no risk, effort, or time spent. Anyone who has seen the merry holiday crowds getting} stewed to the point of vomiting cannot believe that prohibition serves its intended purpose. With regard to liquor only, prohibition merely places high class prices on partly distilled rotugt. This is hypocrisy! It is also a crying shame!
What's wrong with Kansas?
"There is something wrong with Kansas, something vitally wrong. Something that affects the lives and well-being of every man, woman, child in this. This great evil goes under the innocent name of "prohibition."
Let's take a look at what prohibition does accomplish in the sunflower state. It keeps a large assortment of gamblers, bootleggers, bums, and general scum - of - the - earth equipped with Cadillacs every year!
Long years ago, a country editor of a small town in eastern Kansas made himself a national figure by asking this same question. I don't want to steal any glory because of the time it was. It is high time that the citizens and future citizens of Kansas began asking this question again.
What is wrong with Kansas?
Many people are so naive as to believe that since we are living in the much heralded year 1 A.A. (Atomic Age), we are just around the corner from Utopia and all is right with the world. Such people are either hypocrites or juveniles who still place an emphasis on Santa Claus as a blind as to be content with the status quo should throw away his newspapers and start a subscription for Uncle Mur-gatrold's "Bedtime Stories."
The lack of interest in the ballot box that is shown by every eligible voter in the state serves to keep the broad posterior of some Wichita gunman encased in Kuppenheimer pants each season. This is disaster!
Furthermore, since everyone desiring decent drink must migrate to neighboring states, the continuance of prohibition laws in Kansas means that the citizens of this state will present over a million dollars in revenue to Missouri, Nebraska, and Colorado each year. Kansas is not so prosperous a state as yet that it can afford to cast off money in such a frivolous fashion.
The truth is that many institutions in this state are sorely in need of the old green stuff. For instance, the school system. If a 10 per cent liquor tax had been collected on every bottle that was confiscated in the week end haul that federal authorities made in three Kansas cities some months ago, nearly $4,000 would have been added to the coffers of the state treasury. Enough money to buy a new textbook for every student in Topeka. That's quite a lot of lettuce!
This entire question boils down to a decision between two factions. The state of Kansas is either being run for the benefit of the gas house gangs of 10 cities and numerous chapters of the WCTU or it is being run for the benefit of the people—all of them.
Are the people of Kansas so philanthropically minded that they prefer giving large sums of money to the state treasury of Missouri instead of the Kansas school system? I don't believe we love Missouri that much; the time has long arrived when the people of Kansas rise up in righteous indignation and cast the money changers out of the temples of Topeka!

Dominick Hasn't Any Problems On Houses—He Builds His Own
The house that James built will be completed in about six weeks, and James R. Dominick II, Engineering sophomore, will have a threshold to carry his bride across when he is married in June.
Discharged from the army all corps in December, Dominick planned to come to K.U., and bumped into the familiar new-student problem of where to live. Several weeks of unsuccessful apartment- and house-hunting, with time out for registration and enrollment, caused him to think if he wanted a house, he would have to build it himself.
He now spends his lunch hours supervising construction and looking for more lots, so he can build more houses.
A man of action, he looked for vacant lots in Lawrence, and talked with building material suppliers. By Feb. 1, he had acquired two lots at Rhode Island and 22nd streets and hired a construction superintendent and seven workmen.
He plans to sell one of the two houses he is now building to a vet-
cran, estimating the cost of living in it and paying for it at the same time at $52 a month. Modern in style, the concrete block houses each have five rooms, an attached garage, and a "basement" utility room, all on one floor.
Poola — On his 90th birthday D. M. Reese was guest of honor at a trapshoot held at the Elliott shooting park in Kansas City, "D.M.", as he is familiarly known, led off for the first squad of the youthful team whose ages all totaled an even 400 years.
Dominick, who is studying industrial engineering, hasn't decided whether to make house construction his permanent business.
"The weather won't cooperate," he complains. "It keeps holding us up. Maybe I'll go into something that won't make us take a vacation every time it snows."
Although he has been trapshooting more than 50 years, "D.M.," had not shot for over two years until about three weeks ago.

Plans For Union Recreation Room Approved
