Senate, Regents Upset Chancellor
K.U.ToGetExtraHolidays Field House,9 a.m.Classes
It was the first time such a step had been taken since Malott's inauguration as chancellor, seven years ago.
Future policies, established by the University governing groups, came as a iolt to the Chancellor.
"Hrumph!" he told the Daily Kansan in a special interview.
"Hrumph": he told the Daily Kansan in a special interview.
"Hrumph": Dean Paul B. Lawson echoed in carefully chosen syllables.
Students hailed the move as indicative of the progress of student government and mature thinking on the part of campus leaders.
"It's about time," the All-Student Council exclaimed at a special meeting called this noon.
Policies outlined by the two governing groups are:
ONE: Classes to begin at 9 a.m. daily to give professors more time to prepare lessons for the increased number of students.
TWO: Two yearly movable holidays, to provide for student "walkout" celebrations after athletic victories.
THREE: Twenty minute breaks between classes, to give students and professors more time to walk the increased distance between buildings brought about by the University's expansion.
FOUR: Student reserved seats for all campus and out-of-town athletic events.
FIVE: Classes excused for weekly pep convocations during football and basketball seasons.
SIX: A new field house, complete with swimming pool, basketball arena to seat 8,000, spacious dressing rooms, club rooms for the K-Club, women's and men's gymnasiums, indoor track, to go into construction immediately.
SEVEN: Athletic scholarships for University men. (This step was highly commended by Dr. F. C. Allen.)
EIGHT: Activity fee reduced to $2 yearly, with same provisions as former book.
NINE: Library open from 1 to 10 p.m. every Sunday.
TEN: A fine for professors lecturing over the whistle, or giving assignments over holidays, with A.S.C. members to serve as Prof Proctors.
ELEVEN: Women's closing hours extended to 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday nights; midnight all other nights.
TWELVE: No general biology requirement for College students.
THIRTEEN: A concert course designed for students to include programs by Johnny Mercer, Dinah Shore, Stan Kenton, Frank Sinatra, and others.
Commenting upon the measures, Daily Kansan executives said, "We agree—today IS April Fool's Day."
News... of the World
Russian Troops Start Evacuation of Iran
Tehran, (UP) — Russian troops are starting to evacuate Tabriz, capital of Azerbaijan province and main Red army headquarters in Iran, an official American source said today.
Athens, (UP) — Premier Themistocles Sofouli submitted his government's resignation today when it became evident that the Royalist Populist party would win a majority of the votes cast yesterday in the Greek general election.
Allies Thwart Attempt At New Nazi Group
Frankfurt. (UP) — American and British counter-intelligence agents held 200 suspected "postwar" Nazis for questioning today after a surprise midnight roundup which smashed an attempt to form a new Hitler-type government in Germany.
Aboard USS Goodrich off Sasebe, Japan. (UP) — Twenty-four of Japan's remaining operational submarines were sent to the bottom today in a U.S. navy operation known as "Boad's End."
Sinking of the submarines was part of the Allied plan to destroy Japan's potential war weapons.
Strikes Hit Coal Transit Industries
There was little prospect of a settlement for at least two weeks, when the full force of the coal stoppage will begin to be felt. The White House adopted a hands-off policy, saying that President Truman is leaving the handling of the strike to Secretary of Labor Lewis B. Schwellenbach.
John L. Lewis' United Mine workers began a countrywide strike against the soft coal industry today, threatening an immediate slowdown in steel production and gradual paralysis of the nation's harassed reconversion program.
The strike of the 400,000 miners affecting soft coal production in 26 states began officially at midnight with the expiration of the wage contract between the UMW and the mine operators. The miners follow a traditional policy of "no contract, no work."
Some big steel companies said the strike would force them to begin closing blast furnaces "almost immediately." Others could continue full-scale production for two weeks or so.

Danforth Chapel Dedication Begins Tonight
Schwellenbach put the problem for the present in the hands of Conciliator Paul W. Fuller, once a coal miner and later a representative of the miner's union.
Meanwhile, in Detroit, public transportation facilities were paralyzed today as more than 5,000 AFL streetcar and bus operators struck to back demands for a wage increase.
Formal dedication activities of Danforth chapel will begin tonight with a reception in honor of the principal donors at the chancellor's residence.
Pres. Kenneth I. Brown of Denison university, Granville, Ohio, will address an all-student convocation on "The Ensign Said, Take Good Care of Life," at 10:30 a.m. tomorrow in Hoch auditorium.
Gov. Andrew Schoeppel will give the greeting at the convocation and the A Cappella choir will sing "Credo" by Gretchaninoff, with Imogen Billings singing a soprano solo.
A service will be held at the chapel before the convocation to which principal donors and other guests, including about 30 students, have been invited. The Student Religious council is sponsoring a luncheon in the English room of the Union, and a reception for Mr. and Mrs. William H. Danforth of St. Louis will be held in the Kansas room from 2 to 3:30 p.m.
Mr. and Mrs. Clarence H. Poindexter, donors of the painting "Christ at Gethsemane" for the chapel, will be guests of Chancellor and Mrs. Deane W. Malott during their stay. Mr. and Mrs. Danforth are guests of Dean and Mrs. Paul B. Lawson.
The class schedule for tomorrow is as follows:
8:30 classes----8:30-9.
8:30 classes - 8:30-9.
9:30 classes - 9:30-10.
9:30 classes - 9:50-10:20.
Convocation — 10:30-11:40.
11:30 classes — 11:50-12:20.
Peace Meet Prospers At Kansas State
Manhattan. (Special) — The International Security Assembly, a "peace conference" modeled after the United Nations Organization, will hold its second general meeting at Kansas State college, April 9.
Atom bomb control, sovereignty versus world organization, universal language, and international airways will be the chief topics of discussion. Judge Hugo T. Wedell will be the guest presiding officer, and Gov. Andrew Schoppel will speak. Delegates from high schools and colleges over Kansas will be guests.
From a planning committee of 11 students, organization of the ISA was started a year ago to create student interest in national and international affairs.
"We don't wait for the UNO to make decisions, but run our organization as we would run the UNO," Lois Meisner, student chairman, said.
Each of the 30 organized houses chose a country, important in world affairs. Large dormitories were given the larger, more influential nations. Each house chose a chairman, secretary, librarian, and faculty sponsor.
Coincidentally the first organization meeting which the ISA planned fell upon VE day.
"This gave us a rousing start, and created much student interest," Miss Meisner said.
Members of the committee wrote embassies to get all of the pamphlets and books possible about the countries and their problems.
"As a student project, the ISA has been quite successful—students will lose interest as they become more complacent, but the project will continue into next fall," Miss Meisner told the Daily Kansan.
With the fall semester came renewed student interest in the project. Representatives from foreign embassies were invited to speak at Kansas State. Included were representatives from Great Britain, Sweden, Russia, and the Dominion of South Africa. Colored films, showing cultural and historical aspects of the countries, were shown once a week.
'Further Retaliation Would Be Childish'
Lawyers Ask Truce After Kidnapping 'Hop' Queens
The campus was back to more of its pre-war "normal" today-with the engineer-lawyer feud topping the list of recent peacetime "comebacks."
Developments in the wrangle went like this during the weekend:
ONE. The lawyers kidnapped 11 of the 15 candidates for "Hobnail Hop" queen Saturday afternoon.
TWO. The engineers had a queen anyway—Barbara Neeley.
THREE. The lawyers took the "kidnappees" to a dinner and a dance, and claimed "they had more fun than they would have had at the engineer dance, anyway."
FOUR. The Engineers, most of whom thought "it's good to see a little life in the lawyers," accused the lawyers of stealing the queen ballot box, along with the prospective queens.
Glad to See Some Life In Law School Engineers Declare
The lawyers today denied that charge, and came up with an offer of a truce, "now that we've evened up the painting of Jimmy Green." Detailed comments from the two sides were as follows:
Disappointed as they were at the Hobnail Hop Saturday night, some of the campus engineers were willing to chuckle today over the kidnapping of their queen candidates.
"I'm glad to see a little life in the Law school after all these years," Lichty grinned.
Engineering Council Pres. Frank Lichty recalled that he sat at his hotel room window Satur-day afternoon, and watched the coeds being kidnapped, as they streamed into a photography studio across the street. He never guessed the lawyers were "ambushing" the girls there.
Robert Kunkle, another Engineering council member, wasn't so happy
University authorities said "no punishment" would be the rule for the participants in the abduction.
Dean Henry Werner allowed "it's something for the dean of women to consider."
"If the laws count the ballots, and their results don't tally with ours, let 'em crown their own queen," he declared.
And Dean Elizabeth Meguiar added "I'm not going to do anything about it—the girls were out after closing hours, but it was somewhat unwillingly."
'Bitter Bird' In Initial Landing
The Bitter Bird has 44 pages of stories, articles, poems, cartoons, and photographs of campus scenes. Its next issue will be published the first of June, Herriott said.
University Glee Clubs Present Concert Tonight
Orville Roberts, College senior, and Jean Moore, College junior, won two out of three events in the Missouri Valley Forensic League contest held last week at Austin, Texas.
Jane Gillespie, Pi Phi and a senior in psychology, won the "Alluring She" contest; and George Gear, Phi Psi, freshman engineer. and letterman on the football and basketball varsity teams, was elected the "Fascinating He."Pictures of the winners are shown on the two center pages.
Firemen extinguished a blaze behind Hillercrest house at 1:20 today. The fire started in a pile of lumber in the backyard, but no damage was done to the house.
The University men's and women's glee clubs will present their first joint concert in three years at 8 tonight in Hoch auditorium.
Now We're Even For Jimmy Green, Lawyers Answer
A war casualty, the men's group was reorganized last semester and composes about half of the 120 voices in the combined groups.
The first issue of the Bitter Bird, campus humor magazine edited by Terry Herriott, went on sale today in the Union, Frank Strong hall and Fraser hall.
Hillcrest Has Fire
A lawyer "committee," in a letter to the Daily Kansan today, pointed out that "we feel we are far from even for all we have suffered for three years, but we are willing to call a truce" with the engineers.
The letter pointed out that "due to depleted forces," the lawyers have been forced "to accept whatever the war was prepared to do" during the war years.
"Any further retaliation would be childish," the lawyers said.
I think they had a better time when they would have at the ball, he added.
Graduate Lawyer Maloolim Black. declared "most of the girls were good sports" after they were lured into a bus for a picture Saturday, then driven away from Lawrence.
Roberts, Moore Win At Speech Meet
A crowning touch to the abduction was the presence of Ruth Green. Miller hall candidate for queen. She didn't get to the dance—and she's an engineer herself.
The lawyers reported they informed housemothers of the candidates of the coed's safety, and telephoned them long distance when they learned the women wouldn't be home by regular closing hours. Most of the coeds were back home by 1:30 a.m. Saturday after dinner and dancing with about 15 lawyers.
Roberts placed first in debate competition on the subject "American Politics" more won first with the book "The Fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse."
In the past 12 years, the University has placed first six times in oratory and five times in extemporaneous speaking. Roberts won the oratory competition last year, and Moore took first in extemporaneous speech.
Eleven other schools are members of the forensic league: Louisiana State, Texas, Arkansas, Washington of St. Louis, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Iowa State, South Dakota, Creighton, Wichita, and Kansas State.
The debate team, consisting of Moore, Roberts, James Crook, business junior, and Robert McKay, graduate student, placed fourth with the subject, "Resolved that Congress should enact legislation for compulsory arbitration of labor disputes."
WEATHER
Kansas—Fair and continued warm except slightly cooler extreme west in afternoon, high 80 in northwest to 90 in east and south today; tomorrow partly cloudy and cooler.

A Tactician Retires
Most veterans, when they receive their little yellow bird and the chapel's handshake, betake themselves to the nearest bar, railroad station or clothing store.
But one seasoned campaigner, who has been in action since 1942, merely waved a casually affectionate farewell to servicemen and ex-servicemen everywhere, and slipped back into the ink bottle from whence she was born.
She is the voluptuous Miss Lace, heroine of cartoonist Milton Caniff's "Male Call."
Cartoonist Caniff originally drew the comic strip "Male Call" as a fill-in for service papers back in 1942, until such time as GI artists could take over the assignments. However, curvaceous Miss Lace and her myriad of bewildered, embittered, or over-amorous servicemen friends proved so popular that Caniff just went on drawing.
For servicemen far from home, surrounded by heat or cold or boredom, Miss Lace's appearance was a morale builder, in capital letters. Lace was anything but the clear-eyed, long-limbed, fresh-scrubbed, wind-blown creature that is supposed to be the typical American girl.
She was all glamour—Chanel No. 5 and black silk undies—purely a never-never dream girl, and any serviceman who said he had a girl back home just like Lace (almost everyone did) was allowing his imagination to run riot.
In her own way, Lace was as skillful a tactician as Eisenhower on Bradley. Every soldier she met, regardless of rank, was greeted "Hi, General." Her Class "A" uniform was a slinky evening gown that was tighter than the principal character in "Lost Weekend." And a girl with Miss Lace's topography has to be a tactician.
Still, she was as adept at bringing cheer to a morose, homeisck, down-trodden private as she was in fencing but not offending a wolf in Sam's clothing. Lace was intended to be the female protagonist of the civilian-turned-soldier.
She could exchange soldier talk with the best of them, or she could make a man forget for a while all his troubles, but she never let anyone forget that Miss Lace was every sinuous inch a lady.
Best of all, the "Male Call" strip could be funny and stimulating without degenerating to the double-meaning. Lace wore far more clothing than the customary pin-up. She was neither seducer nor seduced. And when the occasion warranted, Lace could be serious. One of the most memorable cartoons of the "Male Call" series was one concerning a combat man who had returned to the States embittered against civilians. This soldier, noticing Lace dancing with a civilian, dropped a few pointed remarks about 4-F's and then proceeded to jostle the civilian. At this point, Lace drew the soldier aside to explain that the man supposedly rolling in civilian luxury was an ex-soldier who had lost his sight in combat. It is doubtful if any wartime cartoon ever drove home its point more effectively.
So, good-bye, Lace, back into the bottle, but don't get any ink on your good conduct ribbon. Nobody did any more than you to earn one."W.F.

Parking Troubles Growing Worse, Warns C. E. Maiden
Admitted, Saturday
Mary Jo Moxley, 1246 Oread.
Stephen Ellsworth, 1325 West Campus.
To the Daily Kansan: Ample space for parking automobiles is badly needed on the campus. This need has been caused not only by an increase in the number of students, but also by an increase in the percentage of students owning cars. Most students drive because they must—in many cases because they have been unable to find a place to live within walking distance of the school.
Norman Tucker, 608 Kentucky.
Nolene Stiller, Miller hall.
Glenda Luehring, 1339 West Campus.
Sufficient parking facilities would provide much needed relief for the parking situation at concerts and basketball games at Hoch auditorium.

'Rank Not Important In Veterans Club'-P
Parking space in certain sections of the campus streets should be retained for people parking for half in hour or less.
The campus streets are jammed with cars all during school hours. It's a waste of time for a student to look around for a place to park his car. There are just too many automobiles for parking spaces on the campus at present.
The present situation is bad, but will be worse when the fall term begins. It's very apparent that someone soon to take care of this need.

To the Daily Kansan: In reply to the letter published last week concerning the officers of the Jayhawk Veterans.

Dismissed, Sunday
William Stewart, 816 Maine.
May I say that until the picture of the meeting and the accompanying write-up were published in the Kansas City Star a few weeks ago I did not know that my fellow officers were all ex-officers while in service.
Modern cement making is an art which was lost for ages, but rediscovered in the middle of the eighteenth century by the famous Scottish engineer, Smeaton, who built the first Eddystone lighthouse.
The subject of prior rank was never brought up at any time before, during, or after the election.
At our organization meeting last October all persons present introduced themselves to a small group. The first person, an office vice were mentioned but not rank

A likely story. When Bob Masey, Sigma Nu, asked D.G. Gwen Goerz for a date Saturday night she replied, "Well, I had planned to go home this weekend, but I think I should stay here and study anyway—so it's a date!"
Man who came for dinner—lunch and breakfast. The Alpha O's, especially Mary Sedlock, are just crazy about Charles Theroff, 1332 Louisiana—but when you see a person 18 out of 24 hours. . . . To assume a resigned tone and quote Mother Klinkenberg." I put him out with the cat and let him in with the milk bottles."
Go slow, boy. Jim Hover, TKE,
has the idea that mankind is racing
to its doom—and he wants to keep
out of the mmd dash. Sure way seems
to be his "Jackson," archaic horse-
less carriage with a right hand steer-
wheel and four kerosene lamps
for head and tail lights.
The Jackson has its moments, though. Last week it made 14th street in the same time it took two TKE's to walk it. However, the boys walked slow.
Greetings. Grass grows greenest
Pays $361 To Rescue Girlhood Memory
Kansas City. (UP)—A memory cost Mrs. Earl Newcomer $261.
As a girl in pignails, she walked along in front of the old Wyandotte court, matching a stick along 300-foot-long fence in rafters of the front building.
Veterans. There is nothing in the regulations which would bar an exEM from holding office. In fact all members are eligible for any office.
So Mrs. Newcomer paid $361 for it and the couple moved to her Lake Lautena wanna home.
The city decided to widen the street and decreed the 50-year-old picket fence would have to go.
With three bottle caps. Dave Thompson, SAE, runs a contest each week for the pledges just "to keep them on their toes." For the first week Dave had the boys write on "Why I think Thompson is a fine man." Subject this week: "Why I think Thompson is a fair and just man."
GEORGE PARMLEE
Ex-secretary, Jayhawk Veterans
If the person writing the letter referred to wants some EM in office, all he has to do is nominate his man or woman at the next election.
Why? Well, because the Nu's have revived their old custom of greeting visitors with a refreshing bucket of water. The other day Dick Parsen and Bob Dougherty took Rae Betlach and Georgia Westmoreland, Delta Gamma's, up the walk for a coke. A greeting was in order and the DG's got it—both buckets full. The girls left thoroughly refreshed.
When Leroy comes marching back again. The V-12's were drilling under the direction of Leroy Robison student ensign platoon leader, Intending to move the platoon to the left, Leroy found that he had moved it too far so he gave out with the very military, "Back up!--back!" How about an about face, forward march next time, Mac?
Pratt County Will Have First Fair in 25 Years
Pratt. (UP) — Pratt county this summer will have its first fair in more than a quarter of a century, it was announced today.
Chamber of Commerce officials said they had arranged for use of a plot of ground just east of the city, on Aug. 15, 16 and 17.
The old Pratt county fair was dissolved in 1920 and its ground sold to George Lemon. Lemon converted it into a park which he donated to the city six years ago.
Seattle (UP)—A nervous and bewildered navy pharmacist mate delivered his first baby last night aboard a storm-tossed tanker 1,209 miles at sea on radioed instructions from a medical officer aboard a coast guard cutter racing to aid him.
The baby, a bouncing seven pound,
four-ounce girl, was delivered by

Battenfeld Men Make Good 'Housewives'
PETER SCHNEIDER
RICHARD HOLLINGSWORTH
"Shoot the baking powder to me, Joe, these biscuits are gonna need it." No, it's not a cooking class—just the Battenfeld men doing one of their daily duties.
**
As Battenfield is run on a cooperative basis, each student is given a duty by the prector. For instance, Tom is assigned to the kitchen and spends an hour a day creating culinary arts, while Dick waits tables, and Harry draws bedmaking. The stock remark around the hall is, "We may not be ready for the big, wide world when we are graduated; but, we certainly make wonderful housewives."
"With our apple pie, brownie, pancake, and other experts our food is remarkably good. And, I'm bragging and not complaining when I say that!" exclaimed Deane Postlethwaite
Battenfeld hall, located at 1425 Louisiana, was built and presented to the University in 1940 by Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Battenfeld in memory of their son, John Battenfeld. John, a university student, was killed in a motor car accident near Lawrence in December, 1939.
Membership to the hall is given as a scholarship to worthy men able to maintain the required scholastic standing of 1.5 each semester. Although keeping the highest grade point average of any men's organized house takes time, the Battelden men are still able to enjoy their Christmas parties, spring formals, and their own version of freshman initiation.
Miss Carlotta Nellis is housemother.
House officers are Richard Hollingsworth, president; William Hollis, vice-president; Marion Sumner, secretary; Theodore Getfys, treasurer; Deane Postlethwaite, publicity chairman; Victor Reinking, freshman trainer; Thomas Saffell, sergeant-atarms; and Dale Rummer, scholarship chairman. Guy Ashcraft is proctor.

BIG PRIZES
The British think American women are "smart," our soldiers stationed in England left much of their "culture" behind, and American university women have a good break, according to Mrs. John Deichen, the English wife of a K.U. engineering student.

"Your women are so smart," she said, "especially your older women. They dress so smartly. The older English women don't bother so much about clothes—you know what I mean."

Mrs. Deichen arrive in America a month ago, the first English bride to arrive here since Eugene Rose. a special student, brought his English bride to the University in February. She believes there couldn't be a better feeling between Englishmen and Americans. She told how during the war, American soldiers spread slang in the English culture, and that some of the Britishers remembered the slang, and still use it. Imagine an enraged Englishman shouting

When asked what her idea of American university women was, she remarked:
"University women in America have a few more career opportunities than the British women, because in England it always has been the fellows who went to the universities."
She confessed she was homeschied,
"But I like America. Though sometimes I think it moves too fast.
England is so slow. It's hard to strike a happy medium. But what bothers me most in America is your radio commercials. They do annoy me, really," she declared.
Patterson Will Speak At Ft. Riley Dedication
Ft. Riley. (UP)—Secretary of War Robert P, Patterson will deliver the principal address dedicating the $404,885 academic building of the Cavalry school to the memory of the late Gen. George S. Patton, Jr., here Thursday.
Public relations officers at Ft. Riley announced today that Patterson would come from Washington to participate in the dedication ceremonies. Patterson was one of scores of government, military, state and civic officials expected to attend the dedication.
London. (UP)—First Lord of the Admiralty A. V. Alexander acknowledged that Britain has suspended her battleship building program, presumably to await the outcome of the U.S. Navy's atomic bomb tests at Bikini atoll.

Better Inspect American Policy Before Criticizing Russia, Ise Says
Russia is afraid of the atomic bomb, uses bad manners in her dealings, and has reason to look with suspicion at the United States.
These ideas were expressed by three members of the faculty in a discussion of Russian and American relations.
Frank T. Stockton, dean of the School of Business, John Ie, economics professor, and Hilden Gibson, professor of political science and sociology, all speakers in the University at Peace series, were the faculty members in the discussion.
They stated that powerful forces in the United States department of state appeared to be trying to start a war with Russia. Dean Stockton held that economic interests of the two countries made the idea of war less likely.
Countries don't avoid war because they lack money or certain resources. Professor Ise answered when questioned as to whether Russia was financially able to wage war.
"Both are 'have' nations," Dean Stockton said.
"The trouble is the Russians use bad manners in their dealings. Probably got them from us," he explained.
"The Russians want governments on their borders friendly to them," Professor Ise continued. "We deplore her spheres of influence in these states which lie at her own door step, while, on the other hand, we impose our own on Korea, more than 7000 miles from our shores."
"Russia," asserted Professor Gibson. "is afraid of the atomic bomb and her current bravado is merely whistling in the dark."
Russia has reason to look at us and wonder, Professor Ise declared, "With the United States record of dealing with the tolerating fascist groups and states (Spain and Argentina for example) it is no wonder the Russians look at us with suspicion. We consider it necessary to dictate the policies of South America and would really howl if the Mexican or Canadian governments were unfriendly toward us. Yet we are critical of the Russians holding the same point of view with regard to their borders."
Professor Ise blamed our attitude toward Russia on war exponents, especially in the state department, while Professor Gibson cited fear as
the source of our feeling toward Russia.
Directly questioned as to the chances of a war with Russia all three answered in the negative.
Dean Stockton said, "The only thing that would cause a war between Russia and the United States would be rivalry."
Professor Ise said, "I would not forecast a war within the next week or 25 years."
Professor Gibson said, "I don't see any reason in the Russian economy that should cause us to go to war with them."
Part of Fraser Meant for Insane (Well...)
Several early campus pictures are now in the "display case" near the central desk in Watson library. One is of Fraser hall in 1882. The hall looked then like it does today—but the background has changed.
Would Fraser hall, 64 years ago interest you?
An explanatory note, based on "Across the Years on Mt. Oread", by Dr. Robert Taft, of the chemistry department, states that "the frame entrance has been replaced by a stone portico, originally designed for a building at the State Insane asylum at Osawatomie."
There is a picture of the first University building (in 1859), that stood where Corbin hall now stands. An accompanying note says that when the plans for Fraser were laid in 1870, the campus was moved to the southern part of the hill to allow for expansion.
The stone cutters made a mistake, and the portico could not be used here; the portico was shipped to the University and "stuck" on the front of Fraser hall.
A third picture shows Fraser hall, old Snow hall (built in 1885, and located within 50 feet of Watson library), and a few other buildings. An aerial view of the campus completes the picture display.

State Accountants To Work A Month on Annual Visit
The annual audit is now being conducted in the Business office, Karl Klooz, Bursar, announced today. Several accountants from the state accountants' department are needed for nearly a month to go over all the books. The work this year is in charge of Karl Kliewer.
"The increased enrollment foreseen for next year probably will not affect the length of time needed to audit next year's accounts," Mr. Klooz stated, "except in the case of veterans under the Public Laws. Their cards may have to be gone over individually, because the government is paying expenses for them."
Houston. (UP)—Her divorce could wait but a pair of nylons couldn't, a pretty young divorce-seeker told Judge Ben Wilson.
Nylons Come Before Divorce
She showed up two hours late for the hearing yesterday and explained:

"On the way down to court I saw a nylon line and couldn't keep from getting in it."
At the Tone of the 10-Ton Bell It Will Be Exactly—Dismissal Time
She got the divorce but not the nylons. They were gone before her turn came.
One of the work-a-day jobs of the campanile, (that's a bell tower, son) to be constructed north of Frank Strong hall as part of the World War II memorial, will be to sound "class dismissed" for the University.
The music-producing part of the campanile is the carillon, a set of about 50 chromatically-tuned bronze bells, ranging in size from the jumbo bass to the 15-pound soprano.
An English firm, either Johnson's or Taylor's, will mold the bells. Kenneth Postlethwaite, Memorial association director, said. A set of 52 costs about $100,000.
The bells hang in tiers on a steel frame near the top of the tower. The carilloneur, or "organist," controls them from the keyboard room. Levers connect the keyboard to hammers which strike the rims of the bells and produce the tone. The carilloneur hits the large oak or ivory keys with clenched fists.
"The person who will play our carillon will have to be brawny," Mr. Postlethwaite commented.
Work on the campanile is expected to begin in June, 1947, and will be finished in about eight months. According to preliminary architects' plans, the tower will be between 150 and 175 feet high.
In the base will be a Memorial hall, with arches opening on four sides. The tower itself contains the carillon room, keyboard room, shower and dressing rooms for the carilloneur, and an observation room, with views of the Kaw and Wakarusa valleys.
Besides using the bass bell for dismissing classes and sounding the hour and half-hour automatically, the whole carillon will be played before and after the church hour in connection with various University ceremonies.
Kansas was the 34th state to enter the Union.

Carrier Plane vs. B-29: Army, Navy Differ On A-Bomb Delivery Method
Washington (UP)
Washington. (UP) — Rear Adm.
John H. Cassady and Maj. Gen. Les-
e R. Groves have different ideas on now best to deliver atomic bombs to the enemy.
Cassady champions the carrier plane. Groves the B-29.
"Operations in this expedition," the Admiral told reporters aboard the Midway off Labrador, "have proved that planes flying from carrier have a definite advantage over those operating from long land runways covered with snow in severe temperatures."
The Admiral, in charge of the U.S. S. Midway's "operations frost-bite" in subarctic waters, said recently that carrier planes would be better than land-based heavies for lugging atomic bombs to enemy targets in adequate numbers.
The general, in charge of the army's atomic bomb project, said that the B-29 is the only plane that can handle the new missile. Asked if a carrier plane could manage the A-bomb, Groves said yes—if the carrier plane was a B-29.
"You just can't keep up that pace," Cassady said, "with heavy bombers."
If Groves is right, the smallest carrier that could launch an atomic bomb sortie would have to be more than 3,000 feet long and at least 300 feet wide. The Midway, largest carrier afloat, is 935 feet long and 113 feet wide, including the island. No one has dreamed of a carrier that big.
The 46-year-old Cassady said 1,000 to 1,500 carrier planes could drop atomic bombs on the enemy "day after day." And only carrier planes, he added, "can ever be in such a position to keep such an umbrella—rather, such a cloudburst—over enemy territory."
Cassady gave this reason for backing the carrier plane against land-based bombers in atomic warfare—especially if the war were fought across the arctic:
The latest carrier planes can handle a load of around two tons. Groves would not say definitely whether size and weight of the atomic bomb were the limiting factors which make the B-29 the only craft now capable of delivering it.
But as of now, Groves said, the B-28 is the only plane equipped, and B-29 crews are the only airmen trained, to carry and drop the bomb.
The weight and dimensions of the atomic bomb are top secrets. Reporters found that out all over again recently when they visited the Roswell, N.M., army air field—at the army's invitation — ostensibly to watch B-29 crews training for the Bikini atomic bomb test July 1.
The reported were not permitted to see either the dummy bomb used in practice drops or the B-29's which dropped it. They were told it would be dangerous to security for them to see the planes because they might be able to deduce the dimensions of the bomb from the bomb bay outline.
The only clues to the bomb's size
have come from scientists who worked on the atomic project. The latest are in a book published under the title "One World or None." It is a report to the public by several scientists and others "on the full meaning of the atomic bomb."
In one chapter Dr. Edward U. Condon, director of the National bureau of standards and an authority in nuclear energy, suggests that an A-bomb can be made to weigh around one ton.
Discussing the possibility of atomic abotage, Condon says:
"Within the volume of a small watermellon is stored the energy of more than 20,000 tons of old fashioned high explosive. The saboteur can carry on his person more destruction than the Eighth Air Force could bring to Germany by 10 raids at maximum effort.
"To be sure, the little lump of atomic explosive must be put together with other mechanisms to make an atomic bomb—our government is chary of the details, but we know that the resulting bomb will fit the bomb bay of a B-29, and we can be sure that the structure can be made for a total weight not far from a ton.
"It can be packaged in the shape and appearance of a filing cabinet or an upright piano."
And, Condon adds, a single typewriter box "could contain an instrument of enough power to wreck the Panama Canal."
Baruch Asks Extension Of Price Control
Washington. (UP)—Bernard Baruch, elder statesman, said today that the price control law must be extended quickly or "we'll all fall down on our faces".
But price control is not enough, he said. He urged that strikes and lockouts be prevented for at least a year, by law if necessary, to enable production to rise. He called for creation of a High Court of Commerce—"a sort of supreme economic council"—to settle disputes between all segments of the national economy.
"We have a tottering structure—let's not do anything to break it down." Baruch told the House Banking committee in support of a bill to extend price controls for another year after June 30.
The 75-year old former financier and adviser of presidents said his chief concern was to let the people know what the government is doing. He criticized the National Association of Manufacturers for advocating removal of all controls.
Emphasizing that taxes must not be decreased further until the budget is balanced. Baruch said he'd even like to "go back and cancel last year's $6,000,000,00 tax reduction."
Rep. Fred L. Crawford, Rep. Mich., said, "Td like to too, but it's political suicide to say such a thing."
Stilwell Road Abandoned In Burma
Washington. (UF)—The Stilwell road and 11 airfields in Durma,vuilt with American and Chinese blood and sweat, have been abandoned because they are useless for anything but war, the government announced today.
The road and the fields were carved out of mountains and jungles at a money cost of about $164,000,000 with the labor and skill of thousands of U.S. troops and native workers, the Foreign Liquidation commission said. Their abandonment, the FLC said, will expedite the return home of more than 12,000 American soldiers.
Explaining that salvage of either the road or the airfields would cost more than it would be worth, the commission added, "there can be no better example of the terrific waste of war and the fact that much war surplus cannot be used in the civilian economy."
U. S. investment in the Stilwell road, formerly the Ledo road, was $137,058,000, the FLC said. The reverse lend-lease investment in the road was $11,852,000, and the American expenditure for the airfields was about $15,000,000.
Be It Doll House Or Street Car, 'There's No Place Like Home'
(By United Press)
Be it barrel, doll house, or street car, there's no place like home.
Especially in this day of the housing shortage.
A United Fress survey showed today that the homeless from coast to coast are meeting the housing problem with old-fashioned American ingenuity.
A Chicago scrap dealer put 250 street cars on sale. War veterans snapped them up for houses at $300 each.
James Nykodem, recently discharged after four years in the army, plans to set his up in suburban Hinsdale. He will light and heat the car with the built-in electrical system. His wife, Elsie, said she could make the car "look real cute."
"I'm going to fumigate it, repaint it,
and even add a little corpse," she said.
A Los Angeles family has converted a double-decker bus into a two story house, and a Sandy, Utah, couple moved into the waiting room of an abandoned railroad station.
At Devil's Lake, N.D., Ardell Hagen moved his wife and baby daughter into a giant barrel formerly used as a hot dog stand. He rigged up an electric stove, running water, lights, cupboards, and a sink.
Herbert Anderson and his wife signed a lease on a 40-year-old doll house in Minneapolis. The house, built as a luxury toy for a wealthy child, is fully equipped-in miniature. The Andersons expect to get along fine if Anderson, who is five feet 11 inches tall, can remember to duck his head going through doorways.
The city of Delton, Ga., bought 200 16-foot square prefabricated hutments from Oak Ridge, Tenn. Two hutments, lined with sheet rock, are combined in a three room house selling for $125.
Jeeps are used as switch engines in Australia.
The home folks came through for Pfc. J. T. Jarvis, who lost both legs in combat. His neighbors in Corpus Christi, Texas, built a house for him in a single day.

SPOTLIGHT ON SPORTS
Bv BILL SIMS
Several changes in softball rules have been made by the National Softball association. The rules received very little publicity at the time, but many persons believe the new rules will make the game more interesting and popular.
One of the new rules does away with the tenth man, the shortfielder. Another states that any batter hit by a pitched ball will get a free ticket to first base. The third important change designates that the batter's box will extend two feet in front and two feet behind the plate.
All three changes favor the batter and were made in order to create a better offensive game. There will be many high scoring games, and batting averages will be fattened considerably.
东 东 军
The elimination of the shortfielder may allow many balls to fall safely for hits which were formerly caught by the shortfielder. Many extra bases may be stolen, when an infielder allows a ball thrown by the catcher to go through him because no one will be playing halfway between the outfield and the infield.
The batter will be able to stand farther away from the pitcher's box aiding him against a fast pitcher. He will have a better chance to take a full swing at a fast ball, and this should help make the game more interesting for the spectator, even though the pitcher won't appreciate

The intramural track meet held last week was a real success even though most of the participants hadn't been practicing very long. Some of the marks turned in compare favorably to some varsity marks and Coach Ray Kanehl watched several of the performers with a gleam in his eye.
Some of these men will be out for the varsity track team this week and should add strength in several events. The Jayhawkers should field a more formidable team in the Big Six outdoor meet at Lincoln than the one which performed at the indoor carnival. Kansas picked up $1\frac{1}{2}$ points to take fifth place in the indoor meet, but indications point to a better showing at Lincoln.
30 Volunteer To Go On A-Bomb Tests As 'Guinea Pigs'
Washington, (UP)—Thirty persons—including a parachute jumper, a self- profession alcoholic, several veterans and one woman—have volunteered to be human "guinea pigs" in the army-navy atomic bomb+.
In the army-military bomb tests.
Only two of them thought they
(meaning their next of kin) should
be paid. One man estimated that
$50,000 "would be about right." An
other volunteered to be a-bombed
because "he heard" the price was
$125,000.
Task force headquarters quickly explained by return mail that volunteers would not be accepted—at any price. Only goats, sheep, pigs, and white rats will be aboard the target ship when the postponed tests are held.
One of the volunteers wrote that he would gladly make a broadcast from one the doomed ships—"at least, up to the second I have been radiated." He thoughtfully enclosed his telephone number.
"Fifty per cent of our population are alcoholic and as an alcoholic I offer myself as a guinea pig, P. S. I'll bet you $1,000 I live too."
Here are some other excerpts from volunteer's letters:
"My 18-year-old companion and I, after serious consideration, decided, if we are accepted, to offer ourselves as human 'guinea pigs.' We felt it our duty, not only to science, but to the rest of the world."
Here's the West All-Star collegiate basketball team which lost a one-point upset, 60-59, to the East five in a Madison Square Garden game Saturday.

V-2 German Rocket To Set 100-Mile Altitude Record
Las Crunes, N. M. (UP)—A V-2 German rocket will pierce the stratosphere for a record 100 miles from the earth's surface next month, the army revealed today at its White Sand proving grounds.
For the first time in history, records as to temperatures and atmospheric conditions at that altitude will be recorded, said Lt. Col. Harold R. Turner, commanding officer of the project.
The rocket, to be fired almost vertically, weighs $13\frac{1}{2}$ tons, is 49 feet long, and six feet in diameter. Turner said it would reach a maximum velocity of 3,000 miles an hour, returning to earth in seven minutes from the launching, and would hit the ground traveling 1,800 feet a second.
The rocket will carry no explosives.
Previous record height for the V-2 was the 62-mile altitude attained by the German explosive-laden missiles fired during the war. A change in the controls will enable the test rocket to reach the greater height, Turner said.
Scheduled for mid-April, the first experimental firing will be secret. A similar test later in the month will be open to the press.

It was revealed only Thursday that German scientists brought to this country on a voluntary basis were assisting army ordnance experts in the rocket experimental work.
Turner declared that although Germany spent 15 years in intensive rocket research, which resulted in the V-2 weapon, the United States now has an equal knowledge of the rocket. He said that a supply of 300 carloads of parts for rockets are on hand at the proving grounds, only one of its kind in the country, and that enough materials are available to build 25 V-2 missiles.

Varsity Golf Team In Tryouts Wednesday
Qualifying rounds for the varsity golf team will be played Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, Coach Will iam Shannon said today. The candidates will qualify at the Lawrence Country club over a 36-hole route.
Each of the 14 candidates will play two out of the three days. A 36-hole total of around 170 probably will be the dividing line, but eight or 10 men will be kept on the squad all the time. Coach Shannon said.
Here is the schedule for the qualifying rounds;
Tuesday, 1:45 p.m., Jack Hines,
Robert Moore, Earl Pickeral,
and Philip Wade. At 2 p.m., E.D. Christensen, Byron DeHaan, James Jones,
and Stanley Rudey. At 3 p.m., Delbert Bangs, Raymond Hall, Thomas McGraw, and William Winev.
The Kansas Jayhawkers have been picked as one of the outstanding basketball teams for next year in a forecast by the country's leading cage coaches. The entire Jayhawker team will return and will be bolstered by the return of several veterans.
Kentucky, coached by Kansas' Adolph Rupp, was picked to be the leading team in the nation. The Kentuckians will have their 1946 entire team, except for Wilbur Schu, back next year. The Wilcats won 28 of 30 games this year and took the National Invitational tournament.
Wednesday, 1:45 p.m., James Neuer and Stanley MacCampbell. At 3:45 p.m., Byron DeHaan and Thomas McGraw.
Other teams picked in the top 10 include the Oklahoma Aggies, Yale Mublenberg, Layfayette, West Virginia, Dartmouth, DePaul, and New York university.

You Must Give Them A Little Corn. K.C. Orchestra Director Says
New York. (UP)—Efrem Kurtz, the pied piper of Kansas City, unlapped his long legs from around his French poodle today and explained the magic necessary to produce a major philharmonic orchestra out where the tall corn grows.
First you must give the people a little "corn". Kurtz admitted, and then you slip in the better music.
Kurtz, who has conducted the Kansas City orchestra for the past three years, knows what he's talking about because when he took it over the Kaycee philharmonic's audience was practically nil. This past season, which began in October, he had to turn away hundreds from the "pop" concerts because of lack of seats.
Kurtz, who is in New York to do some recordings with the New York philharmonic on a radio program March 31 and April 7. Then he goes to Mexico City for a series of concerts with Jascha Heifetz as his soloist.
"I give them something from Carousel or Oklahoma," he explained,
"and then I give the Beethoven's eighth or Brahms' fourth, and they love it."
The tall. cheerful, Russian-born conductor believes that inland America, staunchest stronghold of the jitterbugs, is due for a great increase in major symphonic orchestras.
"In Kansas City we are going ahead fast," he said. "One of my former assistants, Anton Dorati, has started a fine orchestra in Dallas and another has been started in Denver."
"First chair men in every section are imported," he explained, "and usually several in the strings."
He believes that most experts sell the average American short as a music lover.
Kurtz said that about one-third of his Kansas City orchestra was imported, with the rest local talent.
"He will come to your concerts and he will listen, just as do the people of Europe."
"Give him something he knows, and then mix it with something he should know, and he is most appreciative." Kurtz said.
Kurtz said that he, himself, was quite entranced with much popular music and that he even liked boogie-woogie.
"This Benny Goodman, I have
tell you, he is. is, very fine musician."
Kurtz said that he liked nothing better than to go to a night club and listen to "the jazz."
Keep Job Service, Bradley Urges U.S.
Washington. (UP)-Gen. Omar N. Bradley, veterans administrator, said today that one out of every five discharged servicemen quit his peace time job after a few weeks of employment.
Bradley said the re-employment of these veterans is an "acute emergency." He asked a Senate labor subcommittee to postpone return of the U. S. Employment service to state control. Such action, he said, might "throw the whole system into confusion."
Bradley said that of an estimated 11,200,000 discharged servicemen, approximately 20 per cent had held their first civilian positions only a few weeks. An additional one-tenth were about ready to quit at the time a recent survey was made.
Dogs Kill Sheen. Turkeys
Salem, Ore. (UP)—Marion County, Ore., residents were wondering if the countryside was going to the dogs when county dog catcher Paul Marnah reported that one band of 20 sheep and a flock of 45 turkeys had been killed during February by marauding canines.

Shirley's Brother Wrestles With Career
Hollywood. (UP)—Actress Shirley Temple's big brother George, who won his first professional wrestling match, took on his family today in a battle over wrestling as a civilian career.
Temple, who learned to wrestle in the marines, made his professional debut at Ocean Park. He used his 195 pounds to pin Iron Mike Works, 210, in 20 minutes of a one-fall preliminary match.
The match was no surprise, as Temple was a champion in the marine corps. But most of his famous lions used to come and watch him win it.
Only his father, George Temple Sr., was present. He "sneaked" into the audience, sat far back, and angrily brushed off reporters and photographers. He refused to go to his son's dressing room after the match and did not speak to him.
Young Temple, 26, said he and his family had been arguing over his career ever since he decided not to go back to his prewar job with the California highway patrol. A technical sergeant, he was medically discharged from the marine corps March 20, 1945.
His family does not want him to go on with wrestling, he said. And if he does, they do not want him using the family name.
"I have no intention of trading on on my sister's name," he said. "I intend to make my way on my own.
"But the name Temple is my name too and I have a right to use it. I am not going to hide under an assumed name. Wrestling is nothing to be ashamed of."

Breaking Out or Breaking In —It's All the Same to Police
the chronicle of a writing family.
New York (UP) — Clarence Brown, 45, denied that he was guilty of forcing entry in connection with taking $192.50 from the office of a former employer after hours. He admitted taking the money, but said he hid in the office until it had been locked for the night. "I broke out of the office, not in," he said. He was held for trial after detectives explained that forced exit also was frowned upon.
Wichita Police Union Continues Protest
Wichita (UP) — Wichita's police union quarrel grew more violent today as union members began demanding the recall of two or more of the city's five city commissioners in a protest against the firing of seven police officers because of their connection with a police union.
Two of the discharged officers, Clyde Daniels and W. L. Nash charged that parking tickets in the city were torn up and that in some hotels law enforcement officers have orders not to go above the lobby floors to enforce certain laws.
They further charge that senior officers in the department would not permit the rank and file officers to swear on liquor or gambling violations.
Union officials also announced they would appeal the decision last week by Judge Robert L. Nesmith, denying a writ of mandamus to force the reinstatement of Daniels, former police sergeant and treasurer of the union.
Nesmith pointed out, however, that he knew of no law to prevent police officers from organizing or belonging to a union.

K.U. Professors Plus Laboratories Minus Sleep Equal New Facts
"Research programs are a necessary complement to good teaching."
That is the way E. B. Stouffer, University dean, sums up the attitude of the University concerning the importance of research within schools.
"The best research workers are those who work late at night and who begin work early in the morning. They cannot be stopped, and they have little time for social gatherings, he explained.
"Many times discoveries are made that, though of no practical use at the time of discovery, become useful as the basis for a new development later," he said. "For example, helium, a lighter-than-air gas for airships, was realized some time after a University staff member discovered it."
He mentioned that there is a postwar increase in the research activity on the campus, particularly in the departments of entomology, chemistry, bacteriology, biology, zoology, and geology. The last two now rank with the best in the world, he said.
Research at the University of Kansas is dependent upon the individual initiative within the various departments, and upon the teaching requirements of the professors and assistants. No limit is placed upon individuals.
"If the man wishes to sit up all night working on his project, he is free to do so," Dean Stouffer commented.
Most of the research is done by members of the regular teaching staff. A salary is paid to each one with the specification that he spend as much time as possible on research. This, of course, is regulated by the teachings on each professor or instructor, Dean Stouffer continued.
The only full-time research men on the staff are those employed in the Research foundation. This organization is not financed directly by University funds but is supported by industry which pays money to have certain problems solved. These funds are given to the University which hires the staff to work on the problems presented.
"It is difficult to measure the extent and the expenditures of research in the departments," Dean Stouffer suggested. "The needs of each department are determined by its own personnel in accordance with the projects being carried on."
The lasting benefits of research activities often are revealed through publications, according to Dean Stouffer. Many publications on research accomplishments are issued by the University. In this way, he said, the University lets the world know what it is doing.
Top Price of $100 Is Set
For Boxing Match Tickets
Perhaps discoveries are now being made that will add dramatically to the benefits of science to mankind. Some research projects will pass into oblivion. But research at the University goes on and only time can evaluate its worth.
New York. (UP)—A top price of $100, the highest ever charged for a ticket to a boxing match, was set today by promoter Mike Jacobs for the heavyweight championship fight June 19 between titleholder Joe Louis and challenger Billy Conn.
The bout, to be held in Yankee stadium, is expected to gross more than $5,000,000 including picture and television rights.
In revealing the scale of prices Jacobs said that he already had received orders for more than $1,000, 000 worth of tickets.
First Commercial Flight
San Francisco. (UP)—A Pan American World airways clipper landed at Seattle, Wash., Saturday to complete the first commercial airline flight between the Orient and the United States over the great circle route.
The big transport plane completed the 4,789 mile flight from Tokyo in 23 hours, 16 minutes, including a stopover at Adak, Alaska.

Candidates for delegates to the student religious council are Caroline Morris-, Fine Arts junior, Emalouse Britton, College somohore, Betty vanderSmissen, College freshman, and Melba Whiting, College sophomore, two of these candidates to be elected.
An informal tea will be held in the Men's lounge of the Union at 4 p.m. tomorrow to introduce the candidates. Only members who have paid their dues are eligible to vote.
EM, Officers' Uniforms Will Be Same in 1948
Washington (UP)—The War department announced today after June 30, 1948, officers and enlisted men of the army will dress in identical olive drab uniforms of the kind new worn by GI's and will adopt a new-type blue dress uniform.
The olive drab uniform, including plain trousers and battle jacket, is now worn by many officers as well as enlisted men.
The War department said the new regulation paved the way for adoption of dress blue uniforms for officers and men, provided they can be manufactured without interfering with production of civilian clothing.
If available, the blues will be worn by officers and men after June 30 1948, for dress and special occasions If the blues do not became available olive drab jackets and trousers will serve for both duty and dress.
Experimental models of the dress blue uniform include a brass-buttoned sack - type coat, matching vest and visor cap in medium weight wool.
Pipiag will be the color of an individual's branch or arm of service. The officer's dress uniform is similar except for the insignia, the war department said.
The new standard jacket and trousers will supplant the many-colored mixture of shirts, blouses, jackets, and trousers which have been recognized as official army uniforms particularly for officers.
The War department said the army would abandon various types of long and short overcoats. Instead, a combination overcoat-raincoat with detachable lining will be adopted.
The War department said the decision to adopt the same uniform for officers and men had nothing to do with current scrutiny of the so-called "caste system" between officers and men.
More than 160 juniors and seniors took the English proficiency examination Saturday in Lindley hall. They had a choice of 17 subjects on which to write.

U.S. Must Continue Electronic Research To Insure Security
Washington. (UP)—The man who devised the Flying Fortress tactics against Germany, and instituted the disastrous Superfortress incendiary raids on Japanese industry, warned the country today it must go to new lengths in research to assure future security.
He is Maj. Gen, Curtis E. Lemay, recently named deputy chief of air staff for research and development. And he sees almost boundless opportunities for technical development.
The signal corps, in contacting the moon by radar, demonstrated how such a vehicle could be controlled electronically, he explained. The limiting factor is the requirement for concentrating sufficient fuel to carry the missile that far, or to accelerate it up to seven miles a second, required to escape the earth's gravity. LeMay said the required power might be achieved by combustion, if not, by atomic power.
Le May said the air forces already has a complete program for developing guided missiles, including anti-aircraft missiles, which will eventually render all current aircraft obsolete. But these antiaircraft missiles will be impotent against attacks at supersonic speeds.
"A rocket capable of reaching the moon could deliver a tremendous blow anywhere in the world at speeds which would defy detection or interception," he said.
"We cannot develop airight aerial defenses," he said. "Radio can be jammed, but it will be impossible to detect and jam all the frequencies or secret combinations of frequencies which the enemy may employ in attacking us with radio controlled missiles.
"Our strongest defense in the air will be a strong offense, because the advantage is increasingly with the attacker as the speed of attack increases."
LeMay feels the country has been heedless of the lessons of two wars and is fast slipping into a dangerous state of unpreparedness.
"We couldn't even fight our way out of a paper bag today," he said.
Through superior research and intelligence the country can achieve a superior technology which leads to an active material unpreparedness. This will require research on an unprecedented scale.
"The country has the scientific brains," he said. "We need money to put these brains to work."
"Before the war civilian airplane builders undertook to build new planes to our specifications. They were willing to gamble the cost of a plane, $20,000 to $50,000, against the chance of getting a contract.
"Now it costs perhaps $15,000.00; to build a new plane. We cannot expect industry to make such outlays in development. We must give industry the tools for research.
"We need a modern development center with new high-speed, supersonic and hyper-sonic wind tunnels—developing speeds up to 7,000 miles an hour—for scale models. Small supersonic wind tunnels now at Wright Field, Aberdeen, and possessed by the national advisory committee for aeronautics, are inadequate. Tremendous power is required to drive such tunnels."
While the country has rapidly demobilized, aviation research has gone ahead, LeMay assured. All the funds were available that could be spent during the current fiscal year.

K. U. Has Record of Squabble Among Nations for Past 25 Years
KU. can tell how nations have squabbled over everything from the disinfecting of animal trucks to the boarding of private vessels in search of intoxicating liquors.
Every agreement and treaty reached in all international wrangling from 1920 to 1941 has been registered and published by the League of Nations, in volume form, and copies of all the volumes issued —128 of them, have been filed in Watson library.
Today the UNO requires that all treaties from the second world war be registered and published on a similar basis to the treaty series of the League of Nations, in order to "avoid secret negotiations that breed wars," according to Prof. Herman Chubb, who attended meetings of the League of Nations after the last war. The treaty series volumes at Watson library are the only ones in Kansas, Professor Chubb believes.
In one of the volumes it is told how Japanese, Italian, and German representatives met at Berlin in 1940 and agreed to "stand by and cooperate with one another in regard to their 'efforts' in Greater East Asia and the regions of Europe." Ironically enough, this Tripartite pact was signed on the basis that the pact should remain in force for 10 years.
Although Russia eventually warred with Japan, she was involved in a convention in 1925 at Peking in which the "parties (Japan and Russia) solemnly affirm their desire and intentions to live in peace and amity with each other."
America and France in 1924 reached an agreement on the prevention of smuggling intoxicating liquors into the United States. The treaty said that the French government would make no objection to the boarding of private vessels under the French flag for the purposes of searching for liquor.
One agreement governed the disinfection of trucks used for the conveyance of animals between the Czechoslovak republic and Roumania, stating that trucks used for hauling pigs, horned cattle, horses, and other animals, must be cleaned.
The various agreements among nations are versatile as a fly's appetite, but for the most part, later develop into profound, historical, documents. The Atlantic charter means even more today than it did in 1941.
"After the final destruction of the Nazi tyranny," it says, "they hope to see established a peace which will afford to all nations the means
of dwelling in safety within their own boundaries, and which will afford the assurance that all men in all lands may live out their lives in freedom from fear and want."
Nazis Wanted Russian Pact Ribbentrop Tells Court
Nuernberg, (UP)—Joachim Von Ribbentrop told the war crimes court today that the Nazis tried for months before the war to wrangle Russia into a full fledged Axis pact but failed because the Soviet counter-demands were too stiff.
Ribbentrop testified that Russia wanted Finland, "points of support" in the Balkans and specifically in Bulgaria, and access to the Baltic, the Skagerrack, and the Dardenelles as the price of a tripartite pact with the Nazis and Italy.
Chiang Kai-shek Approves Sino-Russian Treaty
Chungking. (UP)—Gen. Chiang Kai-Shek declared today that cooperation between China and Russia is a basic principle of peace in the Far East and the world, and pledged China's faithfulness to the Sino-Russian treaty.

Waves Hammer Alaskan Coast
(Bu United Press)
Tidal waves hammered the Alaskan coast today in the second day of oceanic turmoil which devastated some areas of Hawaii, where 300 persons were reported dead or missing.
At San Francisco, the coast guard reported heavy waves were running along the coast line at five-minute intervals in the San Francisco area. The coast guard said the waves were four to five feet high.
The original surge of water, churned up by submarine earthquakes, smashed against the coasts of North and South America, the Hawaiian and other tiny Pacific islands, yesterday. These first waves appeared to be receding.
Tremors shook the Aleutian chain early today and four hours later a tidal wave hit the Dutch Harbor naval base, snapping a ferry cable but causing no other damage.
At least 140 persons were known dead and the damage was expected to run into many millions of dollars. A Hawaiian official said at least 300 persons were dead or missing.
A navy pilot riding high over the Bering sea radioed that he sighted a huge wave, travelling about 35 miles an hour, near the air base at Naknek, Alaska. He said it seemed to be heading for the Kvichak coast on the north side of Alaska.
The tidal waves extended 7,000 miles up and down the Pacific. Dispatches from Chile said nigh waves crushed small boats and destroyed coastal installations.
contain Coast Guard station at Point Arena, 95 miles north of San Francisco, reported long, sweeping swells, described as half tides and half waves, surged up the shoreline at intervals of every few seconds.
Heavy waves were running parallel to the coast at San Francisco but there was no indication that they would hit the shoreline with destructive force.
At Fort Bragg, coastal town 40 miles north of Point Arena, fishermen were placed on the alert for the reported approach of destructively heavy waves.

The famed Naniloa hotel has suffered considerable damage. The spacious dining room on the ground floor facing the sea is badly wrecked. Several rooms on the same level are badly watersoaked, broken and filled with debris tossed up by the tidal wave.
Hilo, Hawaii. (UP)—The destruction in this once-peaceful resort city reminds me of scenes I saw while touring shelltorn Guam or Okinawa at the height of the war.
Old landmarks are no more.
Guests have been forced to evacuate because the lighting system and other utilities were knocked out by the waves.

I drove to the naval air station where thousands of refugees are housed in barracks that once sheltered officers. Pinup pictures are still on the walls in strange contrast to the dazed persons huddled beneath them.
The wall of babies echoes throughout the area.
Patients from the Puumaile tubercular hospital also have been evacuated to the naval air station.
I flew over the devastated windward shore of Maui, including the stricken area of the naval air station below Kahului and also past Hana. From the air it is evident that destruction and damage is heavy at both places.
both places.
We could only distinguish a bare outline where homes and buildings once stood. They looked like footprints in the sand. Debris was scattered for miles like match sticks.
The citizens of Hilo have rallied nobly, but officials told me it will be at least a year, before the town can be restored to normal.
'Quiet and Peace Will Be Found In New Chapel'
Danforth chapel, the 19th building to be donated to the University was formally dedicated at an all-school convocation this morning in Hoch auditorium.
The chapel was accepted on behalf of the state by Gov. Andrew F. Schoepell. Kenneth I. Brown, president of Denison university, gave the dedicatory address.
Guests at the dedication were Mr. William H. Danforth, who made the initial gift for the chapel, members of the Clarence H. Poindexter family who donated the painting "Christ at Gethsemane," and A. B. Weaver, donor of the organ. Music was by the University symphony orchestra, and the A Cappella choir sang "Credo", with Imogen Billings singing a soprano solo. First services were held in the chapel at 9:45 this morning.
"The Ensign said: 'Take good care of life.'" was the theme of Dr. Brown's address, taken from a letter of a former student sent from overseas. "Begin with yourself", Dr. Brown said. Be a creator, not an accepter nor a despoiler.
"We must accept 'One Brotherhood' both emotionally and intellectually," he continued. "War built fences between nations. It is our job to tear them down. We can no longer have a double standard of judging nations, having one standard for our enemies and one for our selves.
"There is handwriting in the sky, written by life itself," he warned. "It says that the days of the colonial empire are gone, that racial intolerance must go, and that economic slavery must be a thing of the past."
Speaking of the chapel, Dr. Brown said that quiet, peace, and privacy can be found there which is nonexistent in the dormitory, and that it would give wisdom, strength, and courage to those who seek respite there.
Results of the ROTC record firing with .22 caliber rifles on the ROTC range were announced today by Capt. John D. Bradley, professor of military science.
Chancellor Malott then accepted the chapel and turned it over to the students. The chapel will always be open and lighted, and the organ will play one hour every evening as a background for meditation and repose, he announced.
Francisco Leads

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.

Phys Ed—Required
As a guide to the college student, the University requires those phases of education which experience has proved each individual needs no matter what his calling.
A speaking and writing knowledge of the English language is more important to everyone from the journalist to the engineer. English is required.
Good health and the ability to enjoy physical activity are other "universals." Yet physical education, the only course which helps to equip students with these necessities, is optional at the University.
Physical education as a required course was dropped by the University in the early 1930's as a depression economy. In the fall of 1942 in deference to the national emergency, it was reinstalled.
Then last summer, just before enrollment the administration flatly announced that required physical education was out.
Why? Well, the war was over. And as long as we didn't have to have it for purposes of national defense, phys ed just wasn't worth worrying about. It was administratively impossible. Students cut class so much it was impossible to keep rolls straight and too many wanted to be excused from the course altogether.
It is not hard to see where such reasoning falls short.
The fact that many American youths were physically unfit to meet an emergency at the beginning of the war simply indicates that in the years of peace, more stress should have been laid on physical education.
There is admittedly a problem with rolls and attendance, particularly with men. However, K.U. is one of only a very few large universities which has not been efficient enough to meet the problem. Elsewhere, physical education is almost universally required.
If the program could be administered as heads of the physical education department would like to see it, there would be no excuses to harass administrators. Every student would take some gym course, those with physical infirmities enrolling in corrective classes, rest classes, or for some mild sport.
There are at least three indisputable reasons for a physical education requirement of at least one year.
2. Gym classes provide a relaxing break in a day of mental strain.
1. Many students come to college lacking even ordinary muscle coordination. A number have not been able even to walk to music. Phys ed training catches and corrects such fundamental faults.
3. Physical education classes enable a student to learn an outdoo activity which he can carry over into his leisure time after graduation
3. Physical education classes enable a student to learn an outdoor activity, which he can carry over into his future time after graduation.
Unfortunately the students who really need physical training are not the 450 men and women who have voluntarily enrolled. The ones who need "PT" have never been good in athletics; they don't like them.
In college these individuals have a last opportunity to receive expert physical training—to correct their physical defects, to become proficient enough at a sport to enjoy it the rest of their lives.
On their own, they muff this opportunity. And the University, which supposedly guides and builds its students, lets the error pass.
Physical vigor is the basis of effective living. It is hard to believe that the administrators of our "liberal education" can not grasp the importance of this corner stone.
Templin Hall To House Women Students Next Fall
Templin hall will be a women's dormitory next September, Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced today. This hall, located at 1407 Louisiana, formerly PT-5 and now temporarily housing the Kappa Sigma fraternity, will be used as a dormitory for women students living in Tipperary hall, and Kappa Sigma's chapter house.
The acquisition of Templein hall as a women's dormitory gives the University an operating program of 11 women's dormitories. They are Corbin, Foster, Hopkins, Joliffe, Locksley, Miller, Ricker, Watkins, Sleepy Hollow, and Templein halls.

This is for men only—the sufferers from dandruff, falling hair or the beginnings of intellectual foreheads.
--also because they give it attention. Frequent shampoos, scalp massage and thorough brushing keeps the hair and scalp healthy in the absence of systemic disease.
Man differs from some lower forms of animals in that he sheds his hair gradually the year around rather than seasonally. The hair grows at the rate of one half inch each month, and there are about 120,000 hairs on the head, which is of interest only statistically. Barbers and G.I. regulations frustrate any natural tendencies a man has to compete with the beautiful hair of women.
Excessive falling hair may be due to dandruff, which has a fancy medical name, seborrhea, but which fattens the purses of clever advertisers in its common guise. A small amount of dry dandruff probably is only the natural scaling of dry skin; when it occurs in thick patches, either dry or oily, it does the scalp no good.
Treatment is relatively simple but it must be persistent. Frequent thorough shampoos and the use of simple remedies and scalp massage between times usually does the trick.
A patchy baldness or falling of the hair usually is due to infections elsewhere in the body or to nervous disorders. Removal of the cause is essential for a cure.
And then there is the appearance of the faint halo on the crown of the sword.
Common causes are dandruff, glandular disorders—usually thyroid deficiency—or family traits. If the first two are to blame there may be hopes of holding the line.
Premature graying of the hair can come with illness or nervous disorders, but this too is more apt to be a gift from one of your immediate ancestors. And as a rule you don't turn gray overnight. Graying starts in the growing portion of the hair and requires at least a few days.
Why do women have beautiful hair? To attract men, of course, but
Courses in how to hook a husband aren't a part of the college curriculum that you have to work out for yourself.
Tying Apron On Future Husband Helps To Win Happy MRS Degree
But the women at K.U, are soaking in the fundamentals for blissful married life during their college years, probably without realizing it.
Those courses in home economics, psychology, physical education, and sociology you waded through have really left a big impression on your sense of homemaking, and if you don't believe it, time will tell.
"Anything which contributes to education will make a woman better prepared for homemaking," Miss Edna Hill, home economics professor said today.
If a woman wants an MRS. degree, she should drag her potential husband into a home economic course.
But what is more, her husband should know, too, Miss Hill explained.
The males could stand to take some home economics courses to be able to visualize some of the problems the wife faces in feeding and clothing the family, paying the bills, and remaining within the budget friend husband shells out. After all, women take business law, medicine, and even engineering courses so why not have the men try anroas for size.
The latest report is that 95 per cent of all women college graduates marry within five years after graduation, so maybe you'll have an MRS. to go with that AB before many moons.

DID YOU KNOW that there is now assured more than a million dollars for new utilitarian buildings on the K.U. campus? As soon as materials and men are available, construction will begin on; new addition to Union building, addition to Watson library, new Engineering laboratory, remodelling of Fowler Shops for the William Allen White School of Journalism, two residence halls for men, two for women, and a large women's dormitory.
DID YOU KNOW that, according to the latest figures available, there are only 22 carillons in the United States which are classified as "good." The carillon planned for the KU. Memorial Campanile will be the best obtainable, and will be larger and better than many of the 22 recognized instruments in the nation.

Eight persons were killed in a plane crash near Bazaar, Kansas, March 31, 1931. For seven of those passengers there were no headlines, only the sorrow of relatives and a few intimate friends. But the identity of the eighth man shocked the entire nation.
He was Knute Rocke, Notre Dame's immortal football coach. His teams had been all-victorious since Southern California had defeated Notre Dame 29-14 in 1928. Rocke's 1930 Notre Dame team has been called the greatest of them all. Certainly his "Four Horsemen" back-field is the most famous in gridiron history.
"The Rock's" memory was honored Saturday at South Bend where he rose to the heights as the nations top football mentor. He always will be a legendary figure at Notre Dame.
The Mexican baseball league continues to grab some of the star players from the major leagues in the United States. The fact that it is an outlaw league and means suspension from organized baheball doesn't seem to make any difference to some of the players.
The Mexican league has offered
staggering sums to American athl-
tes, and many of them have been
lured away from organized ball. It
is becoming a serious problem to
major league owners and managers,
but there seems to be no ready so-
lation for them.
Vernon Stephens and Mickey Owen are the most famous players who signed the past week. Stephens played his first game in the new league Sunday, but Owens has not reported yet.
Stephens, former St. Louis Browns shortstop and homerun king last year, signed a three-year contract $20,000 a year. The Browns had offered him $13,000 for this season.
Owens, former Brooklyn Dodger catcher, recently was discharged from the navy. He signed a five-year contract as player-manager of a team in the Mexican league. Owen wired his boss, Branch Rickey, that he was through with organized baseball. He received a $12,500 bonus for signing, but he did not indicate what his salary would be.

Iran Offers To Recall Case
New York. (UP)—Iran accused the Soviet Union today of asking oil concessions and autonomy for Azerbaijan province as a price for withdrawal of Soviet troops from Iranian territory, but offered to withdraw all her charges if the Russians would promise to get out of Iran unconditionally by May 6.
The Russians insisted that their request for oil concessions was not connected with evacuation of her troops, but did not mention the question of Azerbaijan autonomy.
These latest developments in the week-old United Nations Security council crisis came after a four-day recess. The Iranian and Russian replies to the council request for more information on the Iranian situation arrived less than two hours before the short meeting this morning.
The spring issue of the Jayhawker is being distributed today at the W.E.C. book exchange in the Union sub-basement, Hanna Hedrick, editor, has announced.
Soviet delegate Andrei A. Gromyko was not present at today's meeting, continuing his boycott of the council while it considers the Iranian question. But UN officials said Iran's offer would be delivered to him immediately.
The council scheduled a closed session for 2:30 p.m.
withdrawal or the Iranian reply charged that as late as March 24 the Russians had raised the question of oil concessions and Azerbaijan autonomy, that no Soviet - Iranian understanding or agreement has been reached, and that the Russians have declined to promise unconditional withdrawal of their troops.
The Soviet reply contended that the question of evacuation of Soviets from Iran had been solved with understanding to get out within one and a half months, and that other questions such as oil concessions are not connected with withdrawal of troops.
Jayhawker Out Today
The council adjourned until 11 a.m. tomorrow to give delegates a chance to study the Iranian and Soviet replies.

Lawrence Votes Civic Improvement
Lawrence (UP)—Residents here voted overwhelmingly yesterday to raise a half million dollars in bond issues for civic improvements.
Last November 4, the citizen voted for these same measures—only it was official this time. A technicality in the election law invalidated it the first time.
Some of the improvements were: a new veterans building housing police and fire departments, a new city garage, improved garbage collections, street widening project, and a recreation and park program.
Student Election Set For May 9
Student election will be May 9, the All-Student Council decided at its regular meeting last night.
Representatives to be elected from various schools are as follows:
various schools District One (College), four men, four women; District two (Engineering), three men; District Three (Business, Fine Arts, Pharmacy, Education, Graduate, Special students), two men, two women; District Four (Law and Medicine), one man.
The 28 women in Law, Medicine, and Engineering, will vote in District Three since there are no women representatives in Districts Two and Four. Special students in District Three were defined as those taking special courses. Other special students will vote by their respective schools.
A committee was appointed to investigate the possibility of using a University-owned farm for recreational purposes, Shirley Wellborn, Joan Anderson, and Mary Jane Zollinger will report on a farm located about a mile southwest of the campus, south of the pioneer cemetery. It includes a three-story barn with cement floors and running water, a house, and several small buildings. The farm was suggested as a place for picnics, horseback riding, hay rides, and dancing.
Acting upon a letter written by Luther Buchele, Y.M.C.A. president, protesting exclusion of Negroes from Big Six participation, a committee headed by George Caldwell will investigate the racial policy of the Big Six and the Kansas Athletic Association.
Buchele charged that the exclusion was supported by a 'gentlemen's agreement" among Big Six members. Caldwell, who will be assisted by Wendell Nickell, Mary Jane Zollinger, and Carolyn Nigg, will report to the council next week
Emily Stacey, parking committee, reported that the entrance to zone seven, the space back of Robinson gymnasium and south and west of Fowler shops, has been closed because of its dangerous location.

Various pieces of this exhibition are set with aquamarines, tournamelines, moonstones, toaz and onyx.
Frats Approve Paddles; Hazing, Hell Week Out
week, hazing last They amended this motion by adding a definition of Hell week and hazing.
The paddle's back in the swing again—but it has to be confined to the fraternity house. That is the gist of the amendment made by the Inter-fraternity council at a meeting last night.
The Council voted to abolish the existing resolution, passed in January, which did away with Hell week, hazing and paddling.
Amendment One—The definition of Hell week and hazing is to include any overt measures in or out of the chapter house designed or resulting in humiliation or inflicting physical harm on any pledges, this to exclude disciplinary "boards."
Amendment Two—Disciplinary paddling shall be defined as paddling done in punishment for violation of pledge or fraternity rules and shall not be given in a spirit of frivolity. Any paddling done outside the chapter house shall be construed to be hazing.
Vincent McCabe and Charles Eliott were elected to fill vacancies on the Council. Ferril Brown was chosen secretary of the group.
Mary Breed Elected Y.W.C.A. President
Mary Breed, College junior, was elected president of the Y.W.C.A. yesterday. Octavia Walker, defeated candidate for president, will be vice-president.
Other officers elected were Norma Kennedy, secretary; Jean Francisco, treasurer; Mary Wisner, district representative; Emily Stacey, All-Student Council representative; Caroline Morris and Emalouise Britton, student religious council representatives.
Military government and restraint will be necessary for several years in Germany and Japan, Professor Chubb continued, and no settlement will be made with either until the United Nations is ready to act upon this.
Defeated candidates to be made cabinet members are: Elizabeth Sifers, Elizabeth Evans, Rita Wicklan, Melba Whiting and Elizabeth VanderSmissen.
The installation date has not been set, Mrs. Christine Alford, executive secretary, said today.
Conquest Not End Of Total War—Chubb
The shooting and shooting have stopped, but World War II is not legally over, Prof. H. B. Chubb, of the political science department, told a Fraser theater audience last night, in his talk on "The United Nations and the Peace Settlement," as part of the America at Peace series.
"The war will not really be over until a settlement has been signed by all separate parties," he said.
"Many persons believe the unilateral form of peace, which can be modified at any time by the victors, is far better than the inflexible Treaty of Versailles," Professor Chubb stated.
Student Recital Tomorrow
Four fine arts students will appear in a recital at 3:30 tomorrow in Frank Strong auditorium. They are Sidney Hahn, Edward Utley, and Irene James, piano; and Lorane Mal, voice.

Our Chance to Give
Students next week will be given the chance to have a part in the World War II memorial drive and campanile. The campus quota, $10,000, is a comparatively small part of the $500,000 project, and should be filled early in the week.
After World War I, when the student body was smaller and money was less plentiful, students were asked to pledge $160,000 for the million-dollar memorial which included the Memorial stadium, the Union, and the Uncle Jimmy Green statue.
In the campaign which ensued, class was pitted against class, organized house against organized house, and individual against individual until a student felt he had to give or lose face.
This time, students are not being coerced into pledging. They are merely being given an opportunity which they want, or should want anyway.
The campus campaign is the result of the work of members of the student memorial committee. Made up of students who are interested in the project, this committee set the quota, and has met and planned on its own initiative, without the directions or presence of faculty members.
Those students who still are not convinced that the drive and campanile are a fitting memorial should be fair enough to read carefully the booklet which was mailed to them today, by the memorial association.
"What will the memorial do? Who chose it? What other projects were considered? What building projects are already planned for the University? How about the backs of the buildings on the driveway?"
The answers are all in the booklet. To read them with an open mind is to be convinced. And to be convinced, is to give—M.T.
Motion Picture Course is Free But It Has Tests and Lectures
"Two, please," said Joe College of 1930 as he slipped a dime through the ticket window of a local theater and smiled at his date.
The price of a seat at a movie was five cents—1930, that is. Today, how-ever, the Joe's at K.U. hand the cashier a dollar for two tickets and pick up the change—if there is any. $ \textcircled{2} $
Or else, you can enroll in the motion picture class at the University, see Sarah Bernhardt, Lloyd George, or Al Jolsen, and get two hours credit, all at the same time.
You'll spend one of the two hours listening to Prof. Allen Crafton lecture on the development of the movie. But the next time you go to class, in the Little Theater, you'll either pick a seat on the front row to get a good view of the movie or settle down in some dark corner where you can take your afternoon siesta without being bothered by the white glare of the screen. But don't ever sleep through "Birth of a Nation."
"This is the most important picture ever made," Professor Crafton declared. "When the movie was first shown, the crowds stood up and cheered after the first act. We knew the second act couldn't be any better. But then after the second act, we stood up again and cheered louder. It was even better than the first. And then, would you believe it? The third act was better even than the second!"
This picture, which marked the beginning of a new era in the motion picture industry, is looked on in Hollywood as the Bible. For 18 years it ran in Russia, making a 20-million-dollar profit.
"The techniques and crafts which David Griffith used to produce this wonderful silent film." Professor Crafton said, in an admiring tone, "are still being employed today on modern movie sets."
While local theaters continue to display the musicals, love stories, and mystery thrillers which lure movie-goers, Mr. Crafton's keen foresight hints of a change in trend of pictures. "I believe that we're getting away from the story type of film," he stated. "Movies can go a long way to influence the public, and I'm sure that soon newsreels, "March of Time" and such documentary films will be favorites of millions.
No doubt about it! There are fashions in movies, just as there are in women's clothes. The very first movie, a flash of miniature pictures with a scratchy gramaphone recording, is a far cry from today's gorgeous technicolor films and smooth reproductions of Frank Sinatra's voice or Greer Gearer's acting.
Faculty Members Start Atomic Energy Series
Dr. David Hume, assistant professor of chemistry, made a plea for the relaxation of security on non-military information about atomic energy so that peacetime research could continue, at a meeting in Kansas City Monday. Dr. Hume worked on the original bomb project.
The meeting was the first of a series sponsored by the University and designed experimentally to give the public facts about the atomic bomb.
Other faculty members who spoke in the day and night sessions were Dr. J. O. Maloney, professor of chemical engineering; Richard S. Roberts, associate professor of economics; E. O. Stene, associate professor of political science; and Hilden Gibson, associate professor of political science and sociology.
Other meetings will be held in Topeka, Salina, Hays, Dodge City, Wichita, Chanute, and Pittsburg.

If at first you don't. While strolling through the course one day (Sunday), what should take Sterling Hess, Phi Delt of '43, by surprise but a former pledge brother frantically waving a pair of golf clubs over his head. Harry (Hamfat) McClure, the guilty party, looked a little strange going through all those anties while George Byers stiffed guffaws in the background, so Sterling set about to investigate.
The International Relations club will meet 4:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Pine room of the Union.

In a fit of temper, or something,
Harry, he found, had thrown a golf
club into the air, and it had landed
in a tree.
April Fool! How would you feel if you awoke all bright and cheery on the first day of April, leaped out of your bed (?) on the sleeping porch, tripped spring-like to your room, and found it completely chaotic? Closets bare of clothes and clothes draped around the room, lip-stick smeared on mirrors? Well, that's how Regina McGeorge, Mary Daugherty, Jane Farrell, Pat Barron, Jo Larson, and all the other Chi Omega pledges felt on awakening last Monday.
Said Regina. "We just can't imagine who did it"
We make a wild stab in the dark and guess it just might have been the well-meaning Chi O actives. True? True!
Five minutes of silent . . . Prayer,
that is. Let's all bow our heads and
think of Gismo, the SAE mascot,
who was run over on Mississippi
street Saturday. Gismo is back on his
feet now, still dashing under automobiles no doubt, but he certainly placed his master Bob Rosenfield,
and friends Leon Thomas and Frank Haas in an embarrassing position when they dashed over to take the wounded puppy to the vet. Guess the fellas take sunbaths too, girls.
Or are shorts just the style this season?
I'd love to. He cried, Tony Veatch, DU, and Jack Ballard, SAE, were both a trifle taken back when they were called Monday night and invited to a mysterious buffet supper by an even more mysterious "Suzie Jackson." Both boys accepted readily, however, and we're wondering when the rude awakening will come. Could have been another April fool trick, but then who knows . . . and who is Suzie?
Petry corner. During Tuesday's very fine convocation, more than one of our number was inspired. However, a certain football star outdid himself, and during the ceremony composed a poem. Aforesaid anonymous character prides himself on the fact that the only "D" he ever made in college was in English comp. Understandable?
Our chapel is a place of rest
Where we will go to do our best
To find out what, and why, we are,
And why we wandered over thar.
Our Chapel
The author of the above has also written other masterpieces, his best being something about Mary and Lamb. For further reference call Phi Kappa Psi and ask for "Wayno."
Thrifty soul. Bob Kunkle, chairman of the Hobnail Hop, estimates that his long-haired classmates from Green hall must have lost $100 for taxis, bus, food, dancing, and pictures while entertaining queen candidates. "Uncle Jimmy Green can be made to look like a new man for only 50 cents worth of paint," he pointed out.

SPOTLIGHT ON SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
The spring sports program at K.U. is approaching an all-time high in the number of participants. Both varsity and intramural sports are feeling the much-heralded boom expected at the end of the war. The armed services encouraged active participation, and many of the men are continuing their athletic activities.
Approximately 200 candidates are out for varsity teams, and about 420 men have signed up for the three intramural tournaments which start soon. Many more will take part in other sports when they begin.
This increased interest will help build a strong athletic program at KU, which should mean that Kansas teams no longer will fight it out for the cellar in Big Six competition. It also means that more equipment and facilities must be furnished, or some of this interest will subside.
Football leads the parade with 65 candidates, and track and tennis run neck and neck for the second spot with 45 and 42 men, respectively. Thirty candidates are battling for starting positions on the baseball team, and 14 men enter qualifying rounds for the golf team.
Three intramural tournaments starting soon include softball, golf or dtennis. Twenty-six teams have entered the softball tournament, which means at least 260 men will compete. The golf meet has 83 entries, and 73 players have entered the tennis playoffs.
The swimming meet also will be held soon, and more than 100 are expected to compete. The volleyball tournament is nearing completion, and almost 100 men participated in this.
The entire athletic future at K.U looks much brighter than at any time in the last decade.
Coach Red Dugan's baseball team is fast rounding into shape in this warm weather, and it should be ready to go for the first game. The schedule has not been released yet, but the first contest probably will be played before the Easter vacation.
An experienced catcher is needed, and Coach Dugan hopes to have some football men report after spring training who will plug some of the gaps in the field. Hitting power still seems weak, but the players are sharpening their batting eyes with daily sessions at the plate.
Several capable pitchers are on hand, and if the team gives them good support, the Jayhawkers will cause plenty of grief for the title contenders.
Weltmer, Scott Have Reunion
Roderick Weltmer and James Scott, Mankato, students at the University in '42 and '43, had a reunion in Nuerenberg, Germany, last month. Weltmer and Scott are members of Delta Upsilon fraternity.
Cindermen To Texas Relays
A 12-man squad, including four individual performers, will give Kansas its most formidable representation in five years at Saturday's 19th Texas relays in Austin.
Coach Ray Kaneh will send three relays quartets to the post in the one-mile, two-mile, and sprint medley events, but the Jayhawker special event entries are the ones most likely to nail a baule or two.
Tops among these is Leroy Robison who has a fine chance to place in each of the three weight trials. Defending Big Six outdoor champion in the javelin. Robison already has lofted the spear 175 feet in practice and should hit 180 in competition. He also owns practice marks of 46 feet three inches in the shot put and 140 feet in the discus.
KU.'s second weight threat will be Karl Ebel, the country's No. 1 interscholastic heaven last spring who has negotiated 185 feet 10 inches. He also will accompany Robison on the discus.
Another red and blue hand who should place high is Tom Scofield, lank returned high-jumper. Big Six indoor and outdoor champion two years ago, Scofield bagged second in the 1946 indoor conference carnival—his first post-war start—with a jump of six-three.
Bob Stoland, another returned veteran who tied for first in the 1939 Texas Relays with a hoist of six-five, probably will be left at home Saturday. The rangy Lawrence leaper still is nursing a pulled muscle.
Mel Stevens, Kanehl's hustling little broad jumper, will fill out the individual roster. Stevens improved steadily throughout the indoor season, leaping 21 feet $11\frac{1}{2}$ inches in the conference meet to bag a third. He already has gone 22 feet 4 inches in outdoor practice.
Johnny Jackson, the Hawkers' brilliant quarter-miler from Shawnee-Mission, will furnish the hub for two of the relays foursome.
Harold Hinchee, the blond 880-stepper, also is assured of two relays spots, probably as anchor man in the 2-mile and sprint-medley. Bob Laptad, Andy Lunsford, Jim Richey, Hank Raab, and Dick Shea will complete the baton brigade.
Officer Tests To Be Given
Competitive tests for Foreign Service officers will be given Sept. 30 and Oct.1, it was announced today. Qualified veterans or members of the R.O.T.C. or N.R.O.T.C. may obtain applications from the Veterans Service bureau.
Prof. N, W. Storer attended the astronomical section of the American Association for the Advancement of Science meeting which was held in St. Louis last week.
Storer Attends Meeting
Professor Storer gave a paper on "The Short Methods in Celestial Navigation."
Tennis Team Meets Washburn Tuesday
A record high number of 42 men are candidates for the 1946 K.U. tennis team, and about a dozen of these are now playing elimination matches to determine team position.
The Jayhawkers' first match, against Washburn University at Topeka Tuesday, will be played by a team composed mainly of veterans. Among the men now competing are several who have been out of uniform only a few months.
The top candidates include Roy Shoaf, Charles Snyder, Bob Barnes, Eldon Frye, Lloyd Eisenhower, Tom Dulos, George Gear, Bill Spicer, Charles Carson, Tom Scofield, Richard Gray, Randolph Funsten, Richard Champ, and W. B. McLlvaine.
Season play for the netters includes eight Big Six conference matches, two with Washburn, the Big Six meet, and other non-conference play now being arranged. The first home match will be against Nebraska, probably on April 12.
Among the other candidates are Harry Alexander, Louis Anderson, Robert Bessiar, Orval W. Buell, Byron Caskey, Holland Chalfant, Cecil Cooper, Robert Daniel, Warren LaMack, Robert Merriam, Lester Mische, William Parsons, Grady Randle, Calvin Remmers, E. M. Sheldon, Raymond Smith, J. W. Van Ert, J. B. Webb, Victor Wiegand, and John Wildgen.
Phi Psi, Sigma Chi Win Division Titles In Men's Volleyball
Phi Kappa Psi and Sigma Chi were undefeated in the volleyball tournament to win division titles. These two teams, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, and the winner of the Phi Gamma Delta-Kappa Sigma tussle will enter the playoffs Thursday.
Sigma Chi defeated Pi Kappa Alpha 15-6, 10-15, and 15-1. The V-12's upset Kappa Sigma 15-12, 15-10. Phi Gamma Delta defeated Tau Kappa Epsilon in two straight sets 15-4, 15-10.
Beta Theta Pi downed Nu Sigma Nu in the final round of division one play 15-7, 15-10. Phi Delta Theta defeated Tau Tau Delta 15-9, 15-4. Phi Kappa Psi upheld its undefeated record by downing Sigma Alpha Epsilon 15-10, 15-12.
Baldwin-Wallace, Peru State Submit Entries to Relays
Baldwin-Wallace college (Berea, Ohio) and Peru State Teachers college (Peru, Neb.) have submitted entries for the Kansas Relays, April 20.
Baldwin-Wallace will pin its hopes on a 1-man team. Harrison Dillard, Negro performer who won the high hurdles at the 1943 Penn Relays, will compete in the hurdle events for the Ohio school.
The Peru Teachers will send a 16-man squad to the 21st annual Kansas carnival.

Truman Warns Miners Of Production Slump
(By United Press)
President Truman warned today that a strike such as the soft coal stoppage could deliver a knockout blow to reconversion.
His warning came after the Ford Motor company announced that nearly half of its 90,000 production workers would be laid off for a week because of the steel shortage. Maximum steel production was prevented by the strike of 400,000 mine workers.
Vatican City. (UP)—Pope Pius appealed today to nations rich in resources to institute food rationing to help ease the threat of world famine.
The pontifit said the ghost of famine is rising behind those trying to work on the reconstruction and pacification of the world.

UN Delays Iran Question---Crisis Believed Ended
New York. (UP)—The United Nations Security council ended the Iranian-Soviet crisis today by postponing consideration of the situation until May 6, the date by which Russia promised to have all her troops out of Iran.
After adoption of the resolution and hearing statements by council members and the Iranian delegate, the council adjourned until Tuesday.
The resolution, proposed by Secretary of State James F. Byrnes, gives the council the right to reopen the case any time before May 6.
Col. W. R. Hodgson of Australia, who had denounced the council for failing to make a complete investigation and for holding secret meetings, was the only dissenter. He abstained from voting, which was 9 to 0.
Under the resolution, both Russia and Iran are called upon to report to the council on May 6 whether Red army troops have left Iran as promised.
The Kansas section of the Mathematical association of America and the Kansas Association of Teachers of Mathematics will conduct a joint meeting at Kansas State Teachers college, Emporia, April 13.
After the vote, Iranian Ambassador Hussein Ala said that the people of Iran "accept the Soviet letter as a mark of faith that Russian troops will be withdrawn." ___

Enlargement of K.U. recreational facilities was discussed at a committee meeting last night in Robinson gymnasium.
The committee, composed of students and faculty members has met the past month to determine the trend in recreation regarding the facilities, organization, and a 5-year recreational plan for the University. It expects to complete a report to the chancellor in "several months," according to Prof. E. R. Elbel, chairman of the committee.
Committee members are Miss Ruth Hoover, Prof. H. Shenk, Joan Anderson, Frances Chubb, Jerry Simpson, and Professor El贝 George M. Beal, professor of Architecture also met with the group.

The Beaten Path
In most cases the college student's trait of searching out time-savers is admirable. In a pinch, he works everything in by planing off the corners.
But now and then the student cuts one corner too many. Over his quota certainly is the corner of Oread and 14th street which navy trainees and other Union-bound Jayhawkers have lopped off just behind Spooner-Thayer museum with an unsightly path extending diagonally northwest and southeast behind the museum.
The original trail blazers undoubtedly thought they had a stroke of streamlining genius; the thousands who have followed visualize themselves saving valuable steps and seconds. And they do—if 48 steps and 25 seconds are valuable.
The destruction of a beautiful lawn seems a high price to pay for so little time and so little saved energy.
Already the ground has started to erode, and, with the rainy months of April and May at hand, it is evident that the shallow gullies may soon be deepening. There is no grass of any description, some places for a swath of 25 feet, to hold the soil firm.
Building and grounds could dig up this pathway and resod it. But what would be the use if students were still bent on saying their 25 seconds?
Everyone should learn to take pride in his possessions. And the University in all of its spring glory is our possession. We should take a pride in it; we should take 48 more steps to go around Spooner-Thayer!
Letters to the Editor
Forums Board Peace Efforts Upheld by Caldwell
Three contentions seem to have been made in that editorial. (1) That Forums board is responsible for a marked decrease in student solicitude for the K.U. peace conference.
To the Daily Kansan: On behalf of the Forums board, I should like to reply to the author of the March 22 Daily Kansan editorial.
(Editor's note: This contention is based on a misinterpretation. The Daily Kansan simply pointed out that the character is a student, interest in a peace project.
True, it questioned Forums board's methods of presenting the subject, but also suggested that the real trouble lay with the student who did not or could not put first things first.)
(2) That the board's latest "ball-fumbling" was evident in the poor publicity and poor attendance for its first program. (3) that Forums board discussion programs are probably an unsatisfactory approach for awakening student interest in world problems.
What about the first contention? It seem to have been the opinion of two Daily Kansan front page editorials, the Student Council, several faculty members, and a great many students that no great concern for the peace conference ever existed in the past. The point is that when any substantial sacrifice of time or effort to make it a success was mentioned.
(Editor's note: The Daily Kansan did believe in October that the entire student body had a part in the demise of the peace project. This suggestion, however, was met by strong assertions from many-including Mary Jo Co, president of the All-Student Council, that "sufficient interest and potential enthusiasm existed among the student body to make the activity worthwhile."
In its more recent editorial, the Daily Kansan questioned what had happened to these alleged enthusiasts.)
Concerning the second contention, Forums board now realizes that its first meeting was inadequately publicized. We wonder, however, if the Forums boards alone was at fault. The now-critical Daily Kansan placed both our articles in the back section while featuring the weather, club meetings, deck tennis games on the front page.
As for the third contention, the Daily Kansan editorial was misleading. It described our discussion programs as lectures, which they are not. They are faculty talks in faculty homes, but with stress on student participation in discussion afterwards.
Forums board intends to continue its discussion series and other programs. To this end it has already engaged Dr. Harold C. Urey, world-renowned atomic scientist, to come to K.U. April 15 for both a convocation and question period.
GEORGE CALDWELL Chairman, Forums board

Lawrence Teacher Tells Art Club About Fingerpainting
"Anyone can do a good job finger-painting." Miss Helen Shaw, primary teacher in the Lawrence schools, told the Art club Tuesday night.
"Adults don't like finger painting at first because they think it is too messy, but children love it," Miss Shaw continued. "It is interesting to watch children work to music. Something like McDowell's 'To a Wild Rose' inspires graceful swirls and circles, while a march produces an entirely different effect," she added.

NEWS OF THE K.U. MEMORIAL CAMPAIGN
FOR K.U.'S FUTURE
Besides being a memorial to the sacrifices of K.U. men and women in World War II, the Scenic Driveway to be built on Mt. Oread as a part of the University Memorial has three other important functions, according to a statement released today by Justice Hugo T. Wedell, president of the K.U. Memorial Association. "We are planning," Justice Wedell said, "a beautiful, enduring and fitting memorial to the 8,000 K.U. men and women who took part in the recent war. The Driveway and Campanile are designed specifically for that purpose."
that purpose." "Fortunately, however, the Memorial will serve three other valuable purposes."
The three purposes outlined by Justice Wedell are: serving the campus of the future; beautifying the present campus; and developing a model which other schools and communities will be interested in following.
Future Expansion Important
There are now planned for the University new buildings which will cost in excess of one million dollars and for which funds are assured. When materials and men are available construction will begin on: five residence halls; engineering shops building; addition to Watson library; addition to Memorial Union; and remodelling of the present Fowler Shops for use by the new William Allen White School of Journalism.
Since the present campus, atop Mt. Oread, affords no new building sites, expansion of the University plant will have to go north and south of the Hill. The construction of the Memorial Driveway around the periphery of Mt. Oread will open up new campus areas and tie in the new buildings with the rest of the University.
"The present campus at the University of Kansas," Justice Wedell continued, "is already considered one of the finest in the country. The addition of a splendid scenic driveway with its plantings, skillfully blended into the present scene, will make Mt. Oread a place of transcendent beauty. We feel certain that when this Memorial project is completed we will be able to say that KU. has the loveliest campus of any school anywhere."
A Model for Others

of the University not only as a trainer of leaders but in actually displaying leadership.
"It is important," he said, "to realize that what we build in the way of a Memorial on Mt. Oread will stand as a model to other schools and communities. Thousands of students and visitors will see what has been done in Lawrence to memorialize the University's contribution to victory in war. If what they see is inspiring and good, they will want to emulate it in their home communities.
"This 'living' memorial, with its trees, flowers, shrubs, lawns and music, will be worthy of emulation wherever men live together in peace and freedom."
DID YOU KNOW that the University of Kansas was the first university in the mid-western part of the United States to have a stadium and a union? Many schools in the nation are now planning to build stadia and union buildings as World War II memorials.

Mrs. Nettie Lyon, Topeka, of the class of 1901, writes: "My three sons were all in the war and for their sake I would love to help out on this ' alive' memorial."

SPOTLIGHT
ON SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
Probably everyone has heard about the obstacle Glenn Cunningham overcome to be the nation's ace miler and one of the greatest distance runners of all time. Cunningham's legs were burned severely when he was young, and doctors told him he would never run again. He was determined to prove they were wrong and he practiced constantly. Soon he was making everyone take notice of his ability on the cinders.
Many other athletes have suffered injuries or illnesses which threatened to end their athletic competition, and many of them have worked hard until they regained their ability. Some have risen to new heights in the sports world as a result of their determination to come back.
Roy Shoaf, one of the top tennis candidates who hails from Topeka, offers a somewhat parallel case. Shoaf came about eight months in a German prison camp where lesions developed on his lungs. When he returned to the United States, doctors prescribed plenty of tennis playing as the best means of breaking these lessons.
Roy spent a lot of time on the tennis courts, and the lesions disappeared. Now he's out for the varsity team, and he seems to have an inside track on one of the starting positions.
书 书 书
Charlie Black, one of Kansas' all-time basketball greats, had a fine time in New York judging from some of the stories he brought back. Charlie was in New York to play in the East-West All-Star game. "The Hawk" had five shots in the game and tallied on three of them for a darned average.
Baer claimed that he was responsible for World War II.
One of the incidents Charlie relates concerns Max Baer, former world's heavyweight boxing champion, who is now a night club entertainer in the big town.
It's funny just how far a guy's imagination can go.
He said that he defeated Max Schmeling, and this made the Germans mad at the United States. Then, when he beat up Primo Carrera, the Italians were frate. The Germans and Italians got together and decided that something should be done so they could regain their prestige. So they started the second World War.
Aggie Cagers To Meet Kentucky In December

It will be the first Sugar Bowl basket game since 1942. Except for football, the Carnival of Sports was eliminated during the war.
Kentucky will bring to the Sugar Bowl a bevy of top-flight honors. Coach Adolph Rupp's gangling cagers blazed to victory in the Madison Square Garden invitational tournament.

Sauer 'Pleased With Team's Progress
Coach George Sauer was pleased with the progress made the past week as shown in the football scrimmage yesterday. But there are still a lot of rough edges that need to be ironed out, and there won't be any letup in daily drills in fundamentals or in scrimmages on Friday and Wednesday, Sauer said.
Sauer said that Bray, center; Crawford and Channel, guards; Dickerson, Mize, and Burt, tackles; and Schnellbacher and Grubis, ends, had come along faster than the other line candidates. Small, end, was showing the most promise at the wing position before he injured his ankle last week. He has not taken part in any of the rough work this week.
"Blocking has improved 50 per cent the past week," Coach Sauer said. "The entire squad is working hard and is beginning to show the results."
Foster, Shields, and Harmon drew the "most improved" tag from Sauer. Foster and Shields have been hitting hard and taking their man out of plays, and this is important for the blocking back. Sauer said.
"Harmon ran hard tonight," Sauer said. "If he continues to improve, he will be one of the best fullbacks in the conference next fall. He has improved his charge and is running harder and faster as a result," he added.
Dick Bertuzzi, outstanding freshman halfback last fall, was held out of the scrimmage session last night because of a weak ankle. Ray Evans has checked out a suit and is working out in the daily sessions.
An internal combustion test cell engine valued at $40.000 was obtained by Fowler shops, Paul Hausman, professor and director of the engineering shop, announced today.
This instrument was obtained from government equipment that is being distributed among various schools and will be used for running efficiency tests on all types of engines.

700,000 Workers Idle in Strikes
(By United Press)
The coal strike crippled steel production today as the automobile industry was slowed down by steel shortages, and a truck drivers' walkout in Detroit idled 12,000 employees of the Briggs Manufacturing company plant, which makes auto bodies.
The new developments brought to 119,000 the number of automobile employs made idle by strikes.
Negotiations to settle the strike of 400,000 soft coal miners were stymied as the walkout entered its fifth day. Nearly 700,000 workers were idle in strikes across the country.
Kansas City, Mo. (UP)—A 204-day strike, said by a union official to be the longest on record, neared its end today at the General Box company plant here as company and union officials announced they had reached a tentative agreement.
Albania Membership May Be Council Issue
New York. (UP)—Secretary of State James F. Byrnes today turned back to Edward R. Stettinius, Jr., the task of representing the United States on the United Nations Security council and left for Washington to report to President Truman.
Meanwhile, interest shifted from the Iranian case to the possibility of another bitter Security council battle among big powers over the question of Albania's application for UN membership.
Tokyo. (UP) — Former Japanese Premier Hideki Tojo has admitted his war guilt to Allied questioners, but has not indicated he will plead guilty when arraigned before the Far East International Military tribunal.
Linton, Ind. (UP)—The Linton Conservation club sponsored a fishing contest to publicize the fine fishing in strip-mines near here. Nobody won. Not a fish was caught.
Chinese Communists Attack Tangshan
Chungking. (UP) — Government reports claimed today that strong Chinese communist forces are attacking Tangshan on the Peiping-Mukden railroad and are preparing for a drive on Changchun when the Russians evacuate that point.
Washington. (UP)—American women were assured today that scarce nylon stockings won't be shipped to foreign countries in wholesale lots because they bring higher prices there.
Albany. (AP) — The New York State Tax commission held today that there is "considerable doubt" as to whether the late President Franklin D. Rosevelt was entitled to special tax exemptions granted war veterans.
The government, moving to prevent "undue drain" on domestic hosiery stocks, banned the export of nylon stockings except under export licenses, effective immediately.
London. (UP)—The British Foreign office said today that the Paris Peace conference scheduled to open May 1 in all probability would have to be postponed.
Attorneys representing the late president's heirs had sought to have Mr. Roosevelt declared a war casualty so that they could make certain deductions on income tax returns.

1,500 Musicians Crowd Campus
Rain's Such a Scarcity Students Think It's Hail
It wasn't hail this morning, but some persons thought so, which goes to show what happens when it doesn't rain for 13 days.
Some students were a little eager when the clouds began to gather and mistook the sprinklers on the lawn in front of Frank Strong hall for a bit of freak rain.
Conclusion: A possible solution to drought might be to send the buildings and grounds department out over the state with their sprinkler system. They started nature working on this campus.

Dean Swarthout disapproves of the practice of taking a melody from the classics and setting it to modern music.
'Today's Jive Is a Crime Against Civilization,' Swarthout Swears
Seniors: George Adams, Preston Clement, Ruth Green, Leonard Brown, Dan Bartlett, Robert Smith, Ronald Hayenga, Doris Chapman, Rex Paulsen, and Hildreth Stong.
Of jive he said, "That low slam-bang stuff is a crime against civilization. That is jazz in the form of songs that have retained the beat, but lost the melody."
Geologist Confers in Denver
Dean D. M. Swarthout knows about jazz, too.
Charles Williams, geological survey, is in Denver this week, conferring with federal geologists there regarding ground water supplies at Wichita.
He doesn't agree with those who abhor modern music or with those who listen to nothing less than a hundred years old, but advocates a balanced diet in music.
Questioned about jazz, modern musicians, and stealing from the classics, the head of the School of Fine Arts answered with a vocabulary that includes jitterbug, jive, swing, and boogie-wooie.
He stated that some jazz is of the lowest appeal and reverts to animal tastes. He mentioned a few "jump" and "stomp" titles, such as "One O'Clock Jump."
"Music is like food in a cafeteria," he said. "It's there in front of us and we can take what we want. Just as we don't eat pickles or chile-concarne every meal, we shouldn't listen only to one type of music."
what keeps them from hearing it any other way."
He remarked that some of the finest music is found in the simple melodies familiar to everyone.
"The beauty of any music is in the structure," he explained. "We legitimate musicians look at music much the same as we look at Notre Dame cathedral. We look for beauty in structure and design."
"George Gershwin struck a new note in popular music because he took jazz and gave it a good structure of fine notes and coloration."
The Dean hesitated to comment on who's writing music today that will last.
"After all," he said, "the critics of their day said Beethoven and Wagner were making noise, not music. It takes years to appreciate and evaluate music."
He expressed his opinion of several popular musicians.
"Take a person like Hazel Scott; she has talent. Ordinary persons can't do that. Blues singers have to grow up in that atmosphere.
Dean Swarthout considers Benny Goodman and Harry James artists.
to grow up in it,
a would grow up that it is harder for a person to grow up in what I call legitimate music to switch to, what do you call it—jazz, jitterbugging, booie-woogie—than for a person to move the other way."
"We try to give the students of the University a balanced diet of music," he pointed out. "Most of them, I am sorry to sav, don't want it. Just the same, it is here."
Reds Will Leave ---But Still Get Oil From Iran
Tehran. (UP)—Russia and Iran today signed an agreement providing for establishment of a joint Russo-Iranian oil company and evacuation of the Red army from Iran by May 5.
The agreement provides:
The document was signed by Premier Ahmed Ghavam and Soviet Ambassador Ivan Sadchikov less than 12 hours after the United Nations Security council temporarily had closed its books on Iran's complaint against Russia.
2. Evacuation of Red army forces within six weeks from March 24.
The agreement provides
1. Agreement "in principle" to establish a Soviet-Iran joint oil company following election of a new Iranian parliament, and removal from the books of a statute which prohibits Iranian officials from discussing oil.
The composition of the joint Soviet-Iran oil company was not immediately announced, but Russia had proposed that she hold a 51 per cent stock interest and Iran 49 per cent. "This Soviet-Iranian treaty, as well as the Russian withdrawal of troops from Iran, makes further United Nations discussion on May 6 unnecessary," Ghavam said.
3. Recognition of the Azerbaijan autonomy problem as an internal matter which will be solved by Iran on her own.

Reason Backs the Blow
Whether the Inter-fraternity council made a mistake Tuesday night by legalizing paddling as a purely disciplinary measure is a question that cannot be decided now. What can be determined, however, is the reasoning which prompted this action taken by fraternity men at the University.
From some quarters, the council has already received severe criticism for its move. But it is unjust to accuse the group of unintelligent reaction without studying all of the details. Certainly it is unfair for those who have never participated in or fully understood the Greek fraternity situation to be among the loudest objectors.
Agitation against the Greek fraternity system has been rising steadily during the past decade. One of the most strenuous complaints directed at the system has concerned the childish practices exhibited by members in their pledge-active relationship.
K. U. fraternity men recognized the legitimacy of this complaint and in a sweeping action last January banned all hazing, all hell-weeks, all boarding from the campus.
With this action, the Hill Inter-fraternity council stepped on the national council's band wagon which had just started rolling in an all-out campaign to renounce pre-initiation horse-play and hazing.
Even after Tuesday's decision K.U. fraternity men are still on this wagon. They still stand as firmly against "pre-initiation horse-play and hazing" and they have clamped down on that activity with a measure which has the power to make it stick.
As for the use of paddles over and above "hazing," that, too, may go completely before long. Most fraternity men on the Hill now seem to feel that as soon as an effective disciplinary system can be worked out to take the place of paddling, paddles should go.
But a majority of them are convinced that paddling is needed now for one reason and one reason only—to enforce pledge and fraternity rules within the chapter house.
They feel that their organizations are going through a difficult period of regeneration following their more or less inactive status during the past emergency. Reinforcing rules and traditions is a hard enough job, they feel, without striking out all previous methods of government.
Fraternity men on the Hill are agreed that the humiliation and mental and physical torture involved in hazing are a menace to the welfare of their organizations as well as of educational institutions. They have recognized this menace and have taken an admirable step to defeat it.
The fact that it has not proved expedient to them to effect now the complete abolition of paddling is not an indication that they are unsympathetic toward the national reform. It simply means that they are aware of their individual organizational problems and realize the necessity of meeting them and rebuilding strong campus groups.
Just as soon as other measures of discipline can be effectively evoked to meet the problems at hand, there seems little doubt that all fraternities will gladly accept them and toss disciplinary paddling out the window as they have tossed out hell week and hazing.

Who do you think you are? Beta Bill Cole from his lodgings in the Malot home was connected in phone women's houses down the Hill.
Someone kept lifting up a receiver.
Assuming the offender to be one of her sisters in another phone booth, Bill's about-to-be date said, "Please use the other line."
The receiver clicked again, and she repeated her request—politely.
But the third time—well, that was too much. "For heaven's sake," lashed the sorority woman, "can't you tell we're talking? Get on the other line."
The chancellor, attempting to call on his upstairs phone, was properly squelched.
And there's ping pong right across the hall. Drop in at the Union activities office any afternoon you can't find a tennis partner. Bill Brewster, Phi Psi, Bill Wellborn, and Bud Chalfant, Phil Delt, are always available for a swift game of hop scotch. (It's easier if you have a car.)
An eye for an eye. Retaliation took the field twice at the Phi Psi house Tuesday night. The Phi Psis, wolfish gleam in eye, invited the Pi Phi's over for a dandelion digging party. Enjoying their company the Sigh boys invited the Arrows to watch them beat the Sig Alph's at volley ball. Upon returning to the Phi Psi house the boys discovered showing the Chi O's on a raiding party showing their disapproval of the invite to the Pi Phi's. In further retaliation the Sigh's squirited the Chi O's-very thoroughly with H2O and painted Phi Kappa Psi across their foreheads with shoe polish. (Bangs are in style again.)
Crime does not pay. Bill Passell, Pete Pedersen, Willy Reeves, Mary Neel, Alpha Delt, Jan Burkholder, SK, and Jean Preston, Alpha Delt, had a sign from a Kansas historical marker attached to the back of their car, Chug-A-Lug. Monday night they all received a visit from the chief of police. Tuesday morning they had a caller from the state highway commission. Wednesday morning they had a visit from the state police to inspect the car for traces of more signs. Sorry!!!!
Washington, D.C. became the national capitol in 1880.
April Fool. Someone tipped off Gamma Phi actives that their pledges were cooking up fiendish things for April 1 recently, so by way of self-defense they planned a little party for the darlings Sunday (about 2 a.m.). The little GPs were roused from bed, blindfolded, led downstairs, and told to sit without moving a muscle or a tongue 'til they were told otherwise. It didn't take the youngsters more than an hour to discover that the actives had gone back to bed.

SPOTLIGHT ON SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
Monty Stratton, who lost a leg in 1938 to halt a brilliant baseball career with the Chicago White Sox, is making a comeback with the Sherman club of the East Texas league.
Stratton hurled against Paris of the same league recently in his first professional appearance since a hunting accident cost him his right leg above the knee. He pitched three innings, fanned seven of the 12 batters to face him, and yielded only two hits.
Stratton has practiced every year since the accident, but this is his first comeback attempt. It has taken him seven years to perfect his pitching motions and stance and the ability to run bases.
The third ranking woman tennis player in France will appear in an exhibition performance here at 2 p.m. Saturday. She is Mrs. Kenneth Jones, Junction City.
She was third ranking tennis woman in France in 1944 and 1945. She met Jones in France while he was serving in the army, and came to America to join him after his discharge. The exhibition will be staged on the concrete courts near the stadium.

Sidelights—The K.U. Law school boasts some talented net men, but they can't compete in the Big Six because they are graduate students. Howard Corbin, Howard Engleman, Malcolm Black, and Bill Howard all are former number one men on the varsity tennis teams.
Corbin defeated Don McNeill, later top ranking net star, when they were playing junior matches. . . Big Bob Kurtland is debating whether to accept a $10,000-a-year offer to play professional basketball, or a job with the Phillips Petroleum Company. The latter wouldn't pay as much, but it would last longer and probably provide a good job for years after he hangs up his court clothes. . . . The All-America football league won't lack for colorful names next fall. Its list includes such stars as Bruiser Kinard, Rowdy Dow, Hippity Hopp, Special Delivery Jones, Truck Maack, Crazy Legs Hirsch, and Dippy Evans.

'New Era' Threatens 'Forceful Resistance' To End Whistling
To Address Professors
The Engineers' Protective Society was born today, backed by engineers who have vowed to shelter "virtuous young American womanhood" from the campus cut-ups of the K.U. lawyers.
1,000 Engineers To 'Protect' Coeds From 90 Lawyers
The idea for the society started 10 days ago, when the lawyers abducted a dozen candidates for Hobnail Hop queen, and left the engineers with their slipsticks showing.
Undaunted by the relatively small number of lawyers—90, compared with their own near-1,000—the engineers today organized and warned that "forceful resistance" will be the future fare for lawyers who "will stop at nothing" to gain their ends.
"For years law students have whistled in derision at the young women who passed their school building," the engineers pointed out.
"This must stop," they demanded. "The Engineers Protective Society plans to take definite and courageous action against any law student who continues this disgusting and degrading practice."
Such a move, the engineers clucked, is designed to "do much more than just protect the virtue of young womanhood on Mt. Oread.
"It will raise the standards of the legal profession in future generations," they added.
Besides, they said, the young women on the campus may find "solace, comfort, and safety" in this action.
The whole affair didn't seem to bother the lawyers very much.
UN Action Illegal, Reds Say
The coeds continued to pass Green hall, and the whistling went right on.
New York. (UP)—The United States and Great Britain were prepared today to fight Soviet Russia's demand that the United Security council drop the Iranian case immediately unless Iran makes a similar demand.
American and British delegates planned a series of informal talks with other council delegates late today to work out new strategy against the Soviet counteroffensive.
The council was plunged into a new grave crisis by the Soviet's charge that its action had been "incorrect and illegal," and its demand that the council abandon jurisdiction over the Iranian case even before Red army troops evacuate Iran.
"Another feature," explained Mr Mott, "will exhibit the learning process of both horse and rider from the ground up. We will show how we teach our children's class, and how colts are trained in a month by advanced students."
Iranian Ambassador Hussein Ala and his spokesman refused comment today. He told the council last week that there could be no Soviet-Iranian negotiations while foreign troops were on Iranian soil. But less than 24 hours after he made that statement the Soviet-Iranian agreement on troops, oil, and Azerbaijan was announced.
The text of the Soviet demand, in a letter signed by Soviet Ambassador Andrei A. Gromyko, was circulated among the other delegates today but will not be made public until later.
Y.M., Y.W. To Have Dinner Meeting Tomorrow
American officials doubted that Secretary of State James F. Byrnes will change his position. He is unlikely to be willing to admit now that he was wrong and the Russians right—which is what the Soviet Union is asking.
The Young Men's Christian association and the Young Women's Christian association will have a dinner meeting 6 p.m. tomorrow in Myers hall, Mrs. Christine Alford, Y.W.C.A. secretary, said today.
Ned Linegar, new secretary of the Y.M.C.A., will be introduced. Marjorie Bentley will present ideas for summer projects for students, and Myra Lou Williamson, American Friends service representative, will explain summer projects.
A horse show will be presented by the University equitation classes and Spur club at 2:30 p.m., April 30, at the west intramural field, Gayle Mott, equitation instructor, said today.
Included in the free show will be high jumping through fire, a striptease on horseback, sword battles, and the Virginia reel.

Sixty-five students had enrolled for, the eight-week term by 10:30 a.m. today, James K. Hitt, registrar announced.
Life Cameraman Here For Dandelion Day
A photographer from Life magazine will be on hand for pictures Wednesday afternoon when the 4 o'clock whistle sounds the official beginning of Dandelion Day, Anne Young, publicity chairman, said today.
"Two for one" will be the slogan. Each basket counts as one vote for the queen and one for the most popular faculty member, who gets the "D.D.D." or Doctor of Dandelion Dav" degree.
Classes beginning at 3:30 will be cut short for the occasion. From 4 until 6:30, diggess will be cutting and tugging from the intersection of Jayhawk drive and Mississippi street to the lawn in front of Snow hall. Workers will deposit baskets full of flowers in booths in front of Snow and Fowler shops.

Half Education
One of the absolute requirements of an enduring democracy is a well informed electorate with the ability to think out issues and reach rational conclusions.
We are neglecting a vital factor in our society by allowing our educational system to lag behind its responsibilities. Our principle of equal opportunity for elementary and secondary education has become largely a myth.
The American Council of Education has collected detailed information on public school standards and expenditures for the pre-war 1939-1940 school year. They found the national average yearly expenditure for a schoolroom unit of 30 students was $1,650. For this expenditure it was considered that schools could supply only mediocre education with underpaid teachers and inadequate supplies. It is doubtful that there has been any marked improvement since then.
The proportion of school-age children attending school is high. But the important factor is whether those students are receiving the education they must have in order to become intelligent citizens.
any marked improvement since then.
Kansas, with a $1,500 average, was one of 25 states below the average level. The averages varied from $4,100 in New York to $400 in Mississippi. Almost five million children were attending schools that could afford to spend only $1,000 or less per standard classroom.
Why are we lagging on this important job? The fault in the main is not with the local and state school authorities. In Mississippi the school taxes in ratio to total income was 33 per cent above the ratio throughout the nation. This is typical of tax effort of most states with low school expenditures.
The problem is further complicated by the higher proportion of children in states which can least afford public school costs. Mississippi, with 31 per cent more children, by ratio, than New York, when the survey was taken, had approximately one-fourth as much per capita income to support its schools.
Why should a child's opportunity for a good education be based on how much money his neighbors are earning?
With today's mobility of population, ignorance can't be quarantined. We all suffer in the long run if education falls down in any section of the country.
There seems only one solution to this problem. It is to allocate federal funds where they are needed to bring the nation's school system up to the level that today's children have a right to expect. This can be done without imparting federal control to our schools, as it has been done in the case of land grant colleges.
Coming generations will face an even more compex world. They must be given every opportunity to prepare themselves for their responsibilities. To do anything less would be to neglect our duty to the nation's future.
Those who imbibe will soon have to use more respect when referring to "corn likker." The makers of scotch whisky are now using as much as 75 per cent American corn in making scotch due to the shortage of barley.
An Indiana woman has exploded the law of averages. In a two-year period she put $17,000 into a slot machine without netting a dime. Her employer is quite perturbed. It was his money.
Plans for the Memorial Campanile include a shower room at the top of the tower for the carillonneur who, it is said, will need it after his strenuous job of ringing the bells. We wonder if this convenience will be at the disposal, also, of spectators who have climbed the 350 steps.
Letter to the Editor
University Needs Buildings
—Not Companile —Exley
To the Daily Kansan: Perhaps it is rather late to bring up this subject, but before we go too far with the proposed University Memorial, costing $500.000. I would like to remind both students and faculty that that sum will build a very fine building.
On the campus there are three buildings that are eye-sores, fire-traps, and not large enough to serve a post-war campus. These buildings are Fraser hall, Bailey chemical lab, and Lindley hall.
Which is actually more necessary to the campus, the proposed memorial or some new buildings? I'm sure if a poll of opinion were taken the students would be in favor of using the money for the more practical purpose of new buildings.
JOHN EXLEY
Engineering freshman
Editor's note: The Memorial association is pledged to a project which will benefit all students, not just those who would utilize a certain building in their course of study. They further point out that there are already funds available for building additions to the campus but they must wait because of labor and building material shortages.)

Chungking $ ^{(1)} $ (UP)—Lt. Gen, Chou En-Lai, Communist leader, charged today that the government is threatening civil war in Manchuria by attempting to drive Communist forces from major towns before the arrival of Nationalist-Communist-American field terms.
Well they tried. Those aren't birthmarks on Chi O's Jeanne Atkinson, Regina McGeorge, Jean Cunningham, Pat Coolidge and Anne Young. It seems the Phi Psi's had a few Chi O trophies and in an attempt to regain them the girls were branded with crescose and India ink along with being soaked by a bose. (The Phi Psi's still have the trophies.)
You are so right. Sound reasoning about travel on a 19th century stagecoach was delivered by Prof. W. W. Davis when he commented, "After you finished riding several hundred miles on a stagecoach you were more than ready to rest your satchel."
Call Don Aimeche. The Fiiji have installed another telephone. In the process, the "Bell Family" got their wires crossed and the boys still have only one phone with two numbers.
At least she thought it was funny. While Bobby Ford, Alpha Chi, was taking a bath, she was somewhat disturbed to glance around and find a snake also enjoying the serenity of the bath. A little later, Gwen Gupton practically had a heard attack while talking over the phone. She looked up and saw the same snake dangling over the ledge. Marilyn Rosenau thought it was all a good joke.
Chetnik Chief, Former Allied Hero Now on Trial as Nazi Collaborator
We see your point. Bob Glover and Bill Mayer, SAE's, were discussing Bill's cold. When asked if he had taken a hot bath and lemonade Bill replied, "After I drank that hot bath I couldn't keep that lemonade on my stomach."
A word to the wise. Just a word of advice to those who intend visiting the Sigma Chi house "of an evening." Enter with care unless you enjoy a shower at the front door.
Those pessimists who say this generation will never be able to relax and enjoy itself after becoming accustomed to the restraints of war may have something. Even with the better brands back on the market, we still catch ourselves breaking a tick of gum in two.
BY LOUIS F. KEEMLE (United Press Staff Correspondent)
The case of Gen. Draja Mikhailovitch, former Yugoslav military leader, is on the way to becoming an international issue.
Mukhailovitch led Yugoslav guerilla resistance to the Nazis in the early days of the war and was hailed as a hero by the Allies, who gave him what support they could. Then Marshal Titos' partisans gained the ascendancy in the struggle for national liberation.
The two factions fought each other as well as the Germans, and Mikhailovitch was repudiated by Prime Minister Winston Churchill in 1944 as disloyal to the Allied cause. Allied support was switched to Tito
Now Mikhallovitch, long a hunted man, has been captured with a handful of his once large forces. The Tito government has announced that he will be tried as a war criminal and collaborator, intimating that his execution by a firing squad is a foregone conclusion.
An effort to get the United Nations interested in the case was made last week by members of the former Yugoslav exile government in London. A long appeal was cabled to Trygve Lie, secretary general, and to foreign ministers of all the United Nations.
The appeal to the United Nations on behalf of Mikhailovitch has not met with any response, nor does there seem any chance of its being considered, since no question of a threat to world peace is concerned.
Basically, the Mikhaiovitch dispute arose from a struggle between the right and left in Yugoslavia. Tito's partisans, supported by Soviet Russia, accused the Mikhaiovitch Chetniks of collaborating with the German invader and trying to sell out the country to attain power.
Chetnik supporters claimed that the partisans were not fighting against the invaders but against the national resistance movement, seeking to set up communistic rule after Germany's collapse.
The United States, however, has intervened to the extent of sending a formal note to the Yugoslav government, urging a fair hearing at the trial.
Washington's note recalled the Mikhailovitch forces gave important assistance to the Allied cause in 1941 and also that "many United States airmen were rescued and returned to Allied lines through the undaunted efforts of General Mikhailovitch's forces."
The United States did not suggest direct interference with Yugoslavia's handling of the case, but proposed that American military men who have direct knowledge of Mikhailovitch's activities and how he "contributed with his forces materially to the Allied cause" be allowed to testify in his behalf at the trial.
It is not certain that Great Britain will support the United States in the matter. Foreign Minister Ernest Bevin side-stepped with an evasive answer when questioned in parliament yesterday. He went only so far as to observe cautiously that "the government recognize that General Mikhailovitch did perform useful duties to the Allies at one stare."
Nevertheless, the United States' note will require an answer from Yugoslavia, with a logical explanation if the request is refused. The difference of opinion on the Mikhailovitch matter is too widespread to be ignored.
Chinese Theater to Close May 1
Shanghai, (UP)—Lt. Gen. Albert C. Wedemeyer announced today that the U. S. army's Chinese theater of operation will be shut down on May 1.
Wedemeyer told a press conference that an estimated 3,000 to 4,000 army troops will remain in China after May 1 to handle disposal of surplus property, assist the Chinese to repatriate Japanese, help move the Chinese armies, train Chinese troops, and assist Gen. George C. Marshall's peace mission.
Deactivation of the Chinese theater will speed up the return of U. S. marines from northern China, Wedemeyer said.
Chicago, (UP)—The city of Wichita and state of Iowa were today awarded grand prizes in a traffic safety contest sponsored by the National Safety council.

YOUNG WOMAN
BETTE FORBES
* * *
Instead of the headless horseman, Ichabod Crane, or any other characters from Irving's "Legend of Sleepy Hollow," you'll find 32 University women living at Sleepy Hollow hall.
The house, now a University women's residence, had its beginning in the "horse and buggy" days as a barn owned by Judge John P. Usher, Secretary of the Interior in Lincoln's cabinet.
Later the barn, at 1420 Ohio street, was remodeled into a house which was rented by the University club. It also has housed the Pi Upsilon fraternity.
In the fall of 1945, after being privately owned for several years, Sleepy Hollow became an organized house for University women.
Mrs. C. W. Arrick is housemother. House officers are Bette Forbes, president; Doris Brown, vice-president; Mary Petersen, secretary; Marian Graham, treasurer; Barbara Hargis, social chairman; and Josephine Hutig, song leader.
Other residents are Jeanne Lambert, Frances O'Neill, Loree Louis, Martha Gretzer, Ione Jane Stroup, Helen Carpenter, Florence Hope, Patrena Petersen, Margaret Kalin, Patti McClatchever, LaViria Harris, Mary Lou Redmond, Mary Catherine Hatzell, Mary Agnes Detwiler, Dorothy Jean Jones, Gwendolyn Jones, Delphine Denni, Mary Branigan, Betty DeArmond, Peggy Joan Shinn, Doris Cox, Martha Myers, Elizabeth Copeland, Phyllis Seacat, Virginia Ann Taylor, and Sibyl York.

The Women — Bless 'Em — Can't Do Without Them, K.U. Says
"What? No women?"
University men and women alike turn thumbs down on the proposal of Columbia university's dean of women, that women be barred from crowded universities, to make room for more men.
TWO. What would students on Kay Kyser's Kollege of Musical Knowledge do when Kay shouts, "Come on chillin, let's dance!"
- The thought of college without its better half raises four serious problems.
THREE. At whom would the law students on the steps of Green hall whistle? (Scotchmen in full kilt are rare these days.)
ONE. Who would set the pace for young women's styles, if the fashion magazines couldn't talk about what the college girl will wear.
This leads to: Why have steak fries? And another American institution has gone on the rocks.
FOUR. Who would cook the steaks on steak fries?
In a more serious vein, student opinion tends toward solving the crowded enrollment in other ways.
Eugenia Hepworth, Fine Arts senior, thinks the situation can be averted temporarily because all schools are not filled yet. "They shouldn't talk about taking women out until the small schools have their capacity enrollment."
"GI's gripped about the army because of the absence of women. After military school and the navy, I, for one, don't want it all over again." says Michael Alt, College freshman.
Ralph Fleagle, first year law student, disagreed with the proposal by saying, "It isn't good even in theory. It's against the very thing for which
E. R. Elbel. head of the Veterans bureau, continued this thought. "It appears to invoke the German-Jap idea where man is the king-pin and women step aside."
GI's fought."
"Professions would suffer without women," says Mary Turkington, College senior. "We can't afford to have our supply of nurses and teachers cut off."
District Judge Hugh Means, '95,
believes that the proposal may open
the doors in some women's colleges
to men, but there's not much chance
of taking the women from the state
universities. "It sounds rather like
an attempt at sensationalism," he
concluded.
Concerning the constitutionality of the matter, W. E. Sandelius, professor of political science, says, "It would be possible to remove women from the campus by action of the State legislature. However, it might be contested on the grounds of unreasonable discrimination against any group."
Students to Minneapolis For College Union Conference
Representatives of the Student Union will attend the National Conference of College Unions in Minneapolis Thursday through Saturday, Alberta Cornwell, president of Union activities, announced today.
Those attending will be Joan Woodward, vice-president of Student Union activities, Dean Henry Werner, Byron Shutz, Billie Marie Hamilton, a member of All-Student Council and the Union Operating board, and Miss Cornwell.

Wives May Use Electronic Stoves
Lincoln, Neb. (U.P.)—The American housewife's hopes of preparing full meals from frozen food lockers and of using electronic heat to cook the food in a few minutes are not far-fetched dreams, but plans which soon will be realities," according to J. Frank Grimes, president and founder of the Independent Grocers' Alliance of America.
Complete frozen food meals will be available at all modern grocery stores within two years, Grimes predicted. They will be stored in home lockers, where the housewives can keep supplies for as long as a year.
New stoves, utilizing electronic heat, will enable cooks to prepare

How Many Students Read This Paper?
?
The enrollment for this semester is 5,200 students. All are entitled to the Kansan which is distributed in midafternoon, Monday through Friday.
Each of these 5,200 students spends an average of two dollars a day. This means that more than $10,000 a day in some way is being circulated by these students in Lawrence.
Who are these students? What are their wants? How can one reach them? Most of this number have been at the University for a semester or more. Many are returned service men. Some have wives and families who now are residents. Their wants run from sodas and baby carriages to groceries and sports goods.
All are members of the student body and thus their interest centers around the activities and social life of the campus. The University paper is the Daily Kansan. Students depend on the ads appearing in it to inform them where to get the things they want to buy.

Carrier's Planes Set for Atom Bomb Test
Norfolk, Va., (UP)—The aircraft carrier Shangri-La steamed toward the Pacific today with a cargo of expendables destined to keep a rendezvous with the atomic bomb.
The expendables were pilotless drone planes of the Shangri-La's "Ghost Hellcat" squadron of radio-controlled aircraft. They will brave the fury of the atomic cloud over Bikini atoll on July 1 to gather, with automatic recordings and sampling devices, data which science hopes will fill gaps in its knowledge of what happens when an atomic bomb goes off.
Since March 5. the Shangri-La's young men, commanded by Capt. E. A. Cruise, have been training intensively for the intricate part they will play in the first test of the atomic bomb against naval ships. They are part of army-navy task force No. 1 which will conduct "operation crossroads" at Bikini.
The Shangri-La's pilots will be among the closest to the bomb blast. Its drones will fly directly into the radioactive pillar of furious turbulence and intense heat which will rise from the burst into the stratosphere.
Before the 27,000-ton veterans of the Pacific war left her berth for the Panama canal and points west, Cruise told reporters that some, possibly all, of the drones will be lost. But the scientific devices they carry will float, and can be picked up after the test.
To Activate Naval Reserve

St. Louis, Mo. (UP)—Dr. Anton J. Carlson, retiring president of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, believes atomic bombs might wreck industrial civilization, but never would "obliterate our species."
Modern industry, "besides building springboards for war, has created other hazards to man's health and welfare," he said. "The atomic bomb is the culmination of these new and man-made enemies."
Students, Faculty Hear Atom Scientists At Topeka Meeting
"Next to himself, disease is man's greatest enemy," he said. "As a biologist I deplore the diversion of tens of thousands of competent scientists and such large fortunes in human toil for devising better ways to kill and injure our fellow men, better ways to waste and destroy our natural resources by war, because the frontiers of biology and medicine are still so vast."
Topeka (Special) The chances for world peace depend on the correct handling of atomic energy, and that depends now on what the people of the United States tell their congressmen to do about it.
This, in a nutshell, is what five University students heard Tuesday from five atomic scientists at an all-day conference here with attended by social scientists from the University and 260 representative citizens of northeast Kansas.
The conference, second in a series of six promoted by the University in Kansas cities, heard the evidence from the nuclear physicists and chemists, Dr. Lyle Borst and Dr. Harrison S. Brown from the Oak Ridge, Tenn., project, Dr. Theodore Jorgenson of the Los Alamos, N.M., test site, David Hall Dr. of Chicago University, and Dr. David Hume, formerly of Oak Ridge, now in the K.U. Chemistry department.
Adding to this the evidence presented by K.U. professors Hilden Gibson, E.O. Stene, J.O. Maloney, and Leslie Waters, the conference concluded that the only solution is to prevent atomic warfare by putting control of nuclear energy in the hands of a world government empowered to suppress all un-social uses and commissioned to develop all beneficial uses of atomic energy.
The conference resolved that its members should individually support the creation of a civilian control commission for the United States by urging seators to pass the McMahon atomic energy control bill in its original form; and that they should write the state department and senators endorsing the Acheson report which would propose to the United Nations organization that an atomic development authority be set up to control provide control on a world level.
Students attending the conference were George Caldwell, Forums board president, Betty Ball, and Barbara Ford, LeMoyne Fredrick and Loren King representing the Atomic Age Association.
Dr. Theodore Jorgenson one of the group of atomic scientists, will speak on the campus the afternoon of April 11, Caldwell said today, and at Plymouth Congregational church that evening. The time and place of the meeting on the campus will be announced.

SPOTLIGHT
ON
SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
Out of the Southeastern conference, where footballers are openly and honestly put on the payroll through athletic scholarships, comes an interesting yarn.
One conference school is rumored to have reached a new high with a side agreement which will net a former prep sensation down in that country a cool $10,000.
Alumni and campus business men allegedly have raised the money outside regular athletic funds, and will provide an apartment, automobile, tuition, books, fees, a rebate on his GI aid, and cash to total the $10,000.
- * *
George Gear, one of the most promising freshman athletes ever to hit the campus, is a varsity tennis team candidate. He might make the team and earn his third major athletic letter this year.
It seems like the tactics of the outlaw Mexican baseball league are being copied.
Gear lettered in football and basketball. He was a standout performer at quarterback on Henry Shenk's grid squad last fall, and he also lettered on Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen's champion Jayhawker basketball squad.
Another school is reported to have stopped bidding at $7,000.
Sidelights—A report is circulating that Nebraska is trying to woo Bruce Drake, Oklahoma's court mentor, away from Soonerland. . .
* *
If Gear earns a tennis letter, he will be the first freshman athlete in many years to accomplish the feat of winning three major letters.
I wonder whether Gerald Tucker scheduled to return to O.U. next fall, also would migrate to Nebraska if Drake went there. . .
Bobby Layne, Texas grid star who passed and ran the Longhorns to a Cotton Bowl victory over the Missouri Tigers, also uses his throwing arm effectively on the baseball diamond. He hurled a no-hit, no-run game in his first mound appearance this season and since has added a one-hit performance to his credit.
Only Harry Could Get Away With a Fashion Faux Pas
New York. (UP)—The Custom Tailors' Guild of America conceded that it could do nothing about it, if the President of the United States wanted to wear a silver-striped bow tie with his evening clothes.
However, the guild said it wasn't considered sartorially correct.
President Truman committed what the guild considered a sartorial faus pas recently when he appeared at the Jackson Day dinner in Washington attired in evening clothes with the silver-striped bow tie.
But, on the other hand, since the President wore it, perhaps it will become a fad and everyone will wear silver-striped bow ties with their evening clothes, Balletta said.
The silver-striped tie would have been proper with a single-breasted coat with a silver and black vest, said the guild president.
He should have worn a solid black tie, said James Balletta, president of the guild, the organization which annually selects America's 10 best-dressed men.
London. (UP) — Authoritative sources said today that Britain had broken diplomatic arrangements with Albania because of the treatment of a British military commission in that country.

Shoaf To Lead Vets In Tennis Opener
A team of five veterans will represent K.U. in the season tennis opener against Washburn university at Toneka tomorrow.
Roy Shofa, Topeka junior, will lead the Jayhawkers, playing No. 1 singles and anchoring the top doubles team with Charles Snyder, Business senior. Shofa was a member of the championship Topeka doubles team, and played first spot on the University of Minnesota net squad during the war. Snyder is a former junior Davis Cup performer.
Bob Barnes, Eldon Frye, and Charles Carson will play the other singles matches, and Barnes and Carson will team up for the second doubles.
K.U. Places Second In Texas Relays
The Jayhawker thinclads captured second place in the Texas Relays Saturday at Austin. Kansas took one first, one second, and four thirds for a total of 16 points to finish behind Texas university.
Every Jayhawker who participated in the meet returned to Lawrence with a medal, and Coach Ray Kanehl was pleased with the showing made against strong university, college, and service teams.
Tom Scofield won Kansas' only first place by leaping 6 feet, 6 inches in the high jump. LeRoy Robinson threw the shot 45 feet, 3-7 to 8 inches to take third place in that event. Karl Ebel heaved the javelin 189 feet, $6 \frac{4}{2}$ inches for third place, and Mel Stevens captured third in the broad jump by leaping 22 feet, $9 \frac{9}{2}$ inches. The two-mile relay team took second place, and the sprint medley team was third.
All members of the varsity golf team who took part in the 36-hole qualifying round last week are to contact Coach William Shannon by 9 a.m. tomorrow, the coach said.
Golf Candidates Prepare For First Conference Match
The first Big Six match will be played with Nebraska. An 18-hole qualifying round to determine varsity entrants in that match will be played Wednesday.

Legislature Appropriates Damages For Nylons; Deer Don't Count
hers!
hat

By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN
United Press Staff Correspondent)
hop
648
Washington. (UP) — The House of Representatives has done the honorable thing by Miss Daphnie Webb of Spencer, N.C. Now if the Senate kindly will shake its legislative stumps and agree to the appropriation. Daphnie gets a new pair of nylons.
And why not? The government ruined her old pair; it came within a hair of ruining Daphne, too, with one of its postal trucks. She arrived in Washington to be a clerk at the War department when, bang, the truck smacked her.
She put in a bill for three weeks wages while she was recovering from her bruises, $3 to clean the mud from her dress, $44 to pay her doctor and, among other things $1.35 for her nylons, which were total wrecks.
Her Uncle Samuel did her $150 worth of damage; the House passed the Daphne Webb law. The Senate will debate it in another couple of weeks. Then maybe Daphne gets her new hosiery.
Once a month the Claims committee sends up a bundle of bills neatly tied in a piece of red tape. Honest. Genuine red tape. Mostly these laws are for the payment of piddling sums to citizens damaged by their government and nobody, except me, pays am much attention. The congressmen dispose of these bills in such a harry that nobody but a worry-wart bothers to learn what happened. I can't help it. The government knows more ways to get into trouble than anybody. Take the latest session:
Clem and Ida Bryant lived happily on the 116-acre farm six and a half miles of Independence, Kan., until the army built across the road a plant so smelly that they had to move. The army admitted its smells were obnoxious. It sent an inspector (a colonel probably) who reported, and I use his words, that the farm free of odor was worth $5,600, but with obnoxious odor, only $4,800. The House ordered the Bryants paid $800 for the army's smells, plus $600 moving expenses to a less smelly house down the road.
Dr. John A. Logan, Washington put in a claim for $285 because army troops broke into his summer cottage at Ship Bottom, Ocean County, N.J., one winter night for a game of cards.
This, in part, is what he said they did: wrecked an heirloom clock, $50; smashed old china and glass, $65; tore up a mattress, $15; spilled shoe polish on the rug, $30; and burned food in the doctor's pots and pans, $10. The House hastened to make amends.
Mrs. Mary M. Wolf got a job as a stenographer with the Home Owners Loan corporation at Detroit to support her child and sick husband. By the time she'd earned $3,692.50, the comptroller general discovered that she wasn't an American citizen, but a Canadian. He tried to make her pay the money back. The House passed a law telling the comptroller not to be a Simon Legree.
The lawmakers balked only at paying Sgt. Charles A. Clark, Buffalo, N.Y. $500 for running his car off the road. The Compromitron said it wasn't the government's fault two deer strolled in front of him. Congress ordered the claims committee to study that one some more.

Thayer Display Shows Chinese Bridal Dress
Two new displays are in the cases at the entrance of the main gallery of Thayer museum.
One is a group of 20 expensive looking dime store articles, none of which cost more than 10 cents, collected by Miss Maud Ellsworth, assistant professor of Education. The article is a collection of articles ranging from a Chinese Embroidered pitcher to a Chinese wedding gown.
Professor Ellsworth's collection, made over a period of about two years, according to Mrs. Mary Warner, curator of the museum, includes a black glazed teapot, two china figures, a small brass bowl, china and glassware, a string of beads, and an Indian ring and bracelet set with turquoise.
Hoe invented the rotary printing press in 1846.
Jobs Now Available For Senior Women
The Chinese wedding gown in the south side display case was worn by four brides, all of whom were killed in the war, Mrs. Warner said. Other items in the case are an old button collection (including one button made from a copper Arizona tax token), a pewter spoon, a pressed glass bread dish, and the luster pitcher.
Full-time jobs for graduating seniors are available at the U.S. Employment office now, Miss Marie Miller, assistant to the adviser of women, announced today.
The three types of positions with Civil Service commissions are; professional assistant in economics, sociology, political science, and allied fields; librarian—a degree is required and one year of experience in a library would qualify the applicant for overseas work probably in the Philippines or Hawaii; medical technician.
Appointment to the jobs will be handled through the employment bureau, Miss Miller said, and interested seniors can contact them at 201 West Eighth or phone 67.
Snyder Warns of Inflation
"Total civilian production now stands at the highest level ever reached by the nation, in war or peace," he said. He called for prompt extension of price control.
Washington. (UP)—America is in the middle of a boom and must watch out for inflation, Reconversion Director John W. Snyder declared today in a quarterly report on the national economy to President Truman and congress.
"Genie
with the light brown whiskers? —PHOOFY!"
DEAR FOLKS:
I'm not really one to complain. But something's been eating at me lately. It's a book I've run across. Aladdin, Aladdin, with his old lamp and that corny genie in it.
Don't think I'm jealous. No. Only I do think I deserve a better break against that genie with the whiskers. Imagine, writing books about him. And not even mentioning me!
I'm a modest fellow. But let's face facts. That goon doesn't even belong in the same league with me. Why I could give him cards and spades and still come up with more miracles per kilowatt hour than he could perform in a thousand and one nights.
My trouble is that you folks take me for granted. When I heat your electric iron, or chill your refrigerator, or pop up your toast, or clean your rugs, you expect it of me. But let that dopey genie do anything and right away somebody writes a book!
Ah me! Also, woe and alas! But don't think I'm going to sulk. I'm used to being taken for granted. I'll go right on being at your service, day and night. But I just had to get this gripe off my chest!
Faithfully yours,
ELEC TRICITY.

Waters Indorses Labor Unions As Vital To Our Present Economy
"Not necessarily," according to Leslie Waters, associate professor of economics. "Unions are necessary in our modern economy, but with the wages
Are labor unions becoming the tah
that wags the dog?
our model had raised both the wages and the real income of the worker," he continued. "Without them, labor wouldn't have a chance."
wouldn't have Professor Waters mentioned the Kansas Valley Mo. garbage collectors an example, "Because of unions, they receive $2.50 more per week than some school teachers, who are not organized," he said.
In the recent General Motors strike, both workers and management were losers, he said. Millions of dollars in wages were lost by the strikers, and the GM management was delayed almost four months in reconversion.
"The benefits of a strike such as General Motors are distributed over a broader base than he realized," he commented. "The Nash corporation saw the handwriting on the wall and gave its workers their desired wage increase before a strike could be called."
Professor Waters termed unwise the practice of tying up whole plants or corporations because of minor grievances. The problem of local issues should be settled by arbitration in each locality."
He attributed much of the disturbance in industry to the government, because of its policy in relaxing controls of wages and prices.
"All prices are going to rise now, and the government is almost committed to inflation," he said. "The recent increase in the price of steel will undoubtedly cause a coal increase, and the cost of automobiles will soar. The whole situation is just a 'not-s-merry-go-round.'
"Prices must be increased to cover wage increases. GM's net income in 1944, 171 million dollars, would cover only about half of the 18½ cents an hour boost granted," he concluded.
Christian Movement Elects Lees, Wismer
Two University students were elected to the executive commission of the Kansas District Student Christian movement at a convention held last weekend in Salina.
Harry Lees, sophomore in the School of Fine Arts and the University's Y.M.C.A. representative, was elected co-chairman of the Kansas district S.C.M.
Mary Wisner, College sophomore and the University's Y.W.C.A. representative, was elected to membership on the executive commission.
Mrs. Christine Alfred, Y.W.C.A. secretary, was elected to the executive commission which is composed of eight students and four adult advisors. This committee handles all of the state activities of the S.C.M

Groom Blasts GOP's Negative Policies
Robert Groom, College senior and chairman of the University Young Republicans club, injected fireworks into the Young Republican convention at Topeka, Saturday, when he demanded that a definite stand be taken by the Republicans on national issues.
"I the Republican party has failed for the past 14 years to come out with a sound constructive program of its own. We have been against sin and all its ramifications, against the Truman administration and for good government," Groom said in reading a list of proposed resolutions drawn up by the University Young Republicans and approved by the state's collegiate Young Republican Clubs.
The resolution presented by Groon urged taking stands on such stands measures as encouragement of labor's aspiration for an annual wage, downward revisions of tariffs, equal rights of Negroes in employment, and drastic revision of tax laws to encourage risk capital and tax reduction to low income groups while keeping high income taxes at least as high as at present.
"We have a program on which I'd like to see this group take a stand," he told the delegates.
After discussion and a recess for caucus, the resolutions were directed to the district meetings in the state and after approval or disapproval will be voted on by the next executive council meeting of the Young Republicans.

Memorial Report Included Inside
Inside the Daily Kansan today is a four-page "Student Memorial Committee Report," sponsored by the K.U. War Memorial association, and prepared by student members of the memorial publicity committee. Catherine Piller edited the supplement, which is published to promote the current $10,000 campaign for funds on the campus.
Gromyko Ends UN Boycott
New York. (UP)—Soviet Ambassador Andrei A. Gromyko today announced the end of his 13-day boycott of the United Nations Security council a few hours after Poland charged that the "existence and activities" of Franco Spain were a threat to world peace.
He hinted he would not press at once his demand that the council drop the Iranian case from its agenda in view of the new Soviet-Iranian agreement.
Gromyko's simple "I shall go" to this afternoon's council meeting was in sharp contrast to his dramatic walkout from the council chamber March 27.
Council President Dr. Quo Tai-Chi and Secretary General Trygve Lie purposely omitted the Russian demand from today's provisional agenda after consultation with other members of the council.
Earlier Polish Ambassador Oscar Lange officially notified Lie that he would ask in the next few days that Poland's charges against Franco Spain be placed on the council's agenda.
The United States and Great Britain are expected to oppose the Polish move against Spain, although Secretary of State James F. Byrnes told a press conference late yesterday that the U.S. position would depend upon the nature of the complaint lodged by Poland.
Press reports from Warsaw have indicated that Poland will ask all the United Nations to sever diplomatic relations with Franco's regime—a step France urged the big powers to initiate earlier this year.
Britain and the United States turned down the plan then and joined with France in a joint statement calling on the Spanish people to rid themselves peacefully of Franco. The Soviet Union has favored drastic council action against the Spanish regime.

Ethics In The Classroom
What happens to resolutions to investigate the possibility of an honor system at K.U. which student government organizations make periodically? Is the lack of action due to inertia, pressure, or some other reason?
Perhaps a complete revision of the grading system is needed, instead of, or in addition to, the honor plan. The saying, "It isn't the grades that matter, it's what you know," sounds very good. But what prospective employers and graduate school deans ask is not, "How much do you know?" , but, "May I see your transcript?"
Students not only admit, but boast of their unfair methods. The first and standard excuse of anyone caught cheating (which happens infrequently) is, "Everyone else does it." There is no incentive to spend a semester preparing for a final in which someone in the next seat supplements what little he knows with what you know to make a higher grade.
Names listed on honor rolls carry no explanations, where appropriate, such as "apple-polisher", "received help from his neighbors in recitation and quizzes", or "paid $50 for a set of themes." Congratulations are given both to the deserving and the undeserving.
No one quarrels with the economics professor's argument that cutthroat competition, monopoly, and lack of scruples in business is bad for society. But in college many follow those same low principles.
In education for living and striving toward progress, high ethical standards are absolutely necessary. The attitude of "Get the grade, Johnny, get it honestly if you can, but get the grade." just doesn't fit. —A.B.
UN May Get Mandates Held by League
New York, (UP)—Dr. Victor Hoo of China, assistant United Nations secretary general in charge of trusteeships, disclosed today that four African mandated territories are being considered for UN trusteeships
Those territories, which may become the first UN trusteeship areas, are the British mandate of Tanganyika, the Franco-British mandates of Togoland and the Cameroons, and the Belgian mandate Ruanda-Urlandi.
The UN trusteeship council can not be created until some territories are placed under the trusteeship system. The council will include all the Big Five but its total membership must be divided equally between administering and non-administering members.

Traded Watch For Bread Has Time Again
"Last month I got a letter asking me to come to Cincinnati for a stag party." Wade said. "The fellow had made the same deal with someone else and he wanted me to make a big announcement, treating watches. But, I couldn't cut that many classes so he mailed the watch to me.
"He is a jeweler, but you can't buy watches like that now. He wrote directly to the president of the company and explained why he needed these."
When Capt. Wade, who flew a Piper Cub for "organic observation," was shot down over Chaumont, France, in 1944, he had never met the prisoner with whom he was placed. But he let the soldier take his wristwatch to trade for food on the man's word that he would replace the watch when they returned to the United States.
It pays to trust your fellow man. That's what Rollin Wade, graduate pre-medical student, says. He got a new watch that way.
Wade was a prisoner at Stalagluft (an air forces camp) until May, 1945. The trade for food was made through Russian prisoners who worked out-side.
"It was mostly black bread," Wade explained. "And according to our agreement the other guy got 90 per cent of that. Bpt I got a watch worth about four times as much as the one I traded."
He has two brothers at the University. Marion is a graduate student and is an instructor in electrical engineering. Stanley is a sophomore in mechanical engineering.

THE STUDENT MEMORIAL COMMITTEE REPORT
Hill Campaign To Start
Campanile To Be Landmark Bell Tower Will Be Visible For Miles From Mount Oread
The University of Kansas World War II Memorial Campanile will be one of the outstanding landmarks of the state of Kansas.
The plans call for a campanile (bell-tower) which will rise 150 to 175 feet above the summit of Mount Oread. Homer F. Neville, Kansas City, Mo., one of the two architects who prepared the preliminary study said that the tower needs to be "quite tall" in order to look well alongside Frank Strong hall, near which it will be built.
The architects have suggested the promontory directly north of Frank Strong hall, the University administration building, as the site for the campanile.

STUDENTS URGED TO SHARE IN $10,000 CONTRIBUTION TO K.U. MEMORIAL
"Now is the time for all good students to come to the aid of their university!"
Mount Oread will be crowned with a great "living" memorial, a campanile with carillon and a scenic driveway, as a tribute to the 8,000 K.U. men and women who served in the armed forces during World War II.
"This is one of the few times that students are asked to contribute to university projects," Miss Nancy Tomlinson, chairman of the Memorial Drive committee said today. "We know that every student on the hill will feel that it is not only his duty but his privilege to help in financing the Memorial Drive. In addition to serving as an enduring and fitting memorial, it will add immeasurably to the beauty of a campus which already is considered one of the finest in the world."
The goal set for the students in this campaign is $10,000, less than two per cent of the total $500,000 which is to be raised. When the campaign for the World War I Memorial was held, the student body which was at that time much smaller than at present, pledged over $160,000.
Speakers Visit Houses
Monday and Tuesday nights the campaign will get under way with speakers from the Speech League talking in all organized houses. Representatives will collect the contributions and turn them in daily to the central office at 218 Frank Strong. Independents living in unorganized houses will be canvassed according to the precept plan of voting. There will also be a booth in the center of Frank Strong hall for those unable to be contacted. This booth, under the direction of Anna Marie Stevens, will be open Monday through Friday from 8:30-12:30 and from 1:30-5:00.
THE TOWER OF THE AMAZING AUTOBIOGRAPHY
..INQUIRING REPORTER .
Just what do the students think about the memorial drive?
In a completely representative campus interview we discovered whole hearted student support of the planned memorial for the University's tribute to its own heroes of World War II. Read for yourself—veterans, graduate students, sailors,
"civilian" students, men and women gave a majority approval to the question: "Do you consider the proposed scenic drive and parkway, the carillon londs, and the campanile tower a fitting memorial for the K.U. students who died in the service of World War II?" Here are the answers they gave:
Brebcca Valette, College senior, Beloit: "The reason I like it is because of its memorial aspects, and I think it will add much in an aesthetic way to our campus. Both of the projects have lasting qualities and will retain their memorial value for future generations as well as our own."
(continued to page two)
"War II's memorial driveway, campanile and carillon sounds ace high to me."—Capt. Presson S. Shane, e'41, Junction City, Kans., Co-Honor Man for His Class.
"I think it will be a fine thing for Mount Oread. It is quite an inspiration to feel that a project is on foot to enhance the beauty and attractiveness of this beautiful site."—Pauline Ketchum, '13, fa'17, Fort Kent, Kansas.
"The K.U. alumni of the entire nation are looking toward the student body for the lead. Student-backing for the World War II Memorial Drive fund will definitely assure its success with alumni wherever they may be."
The finance committee, headed by Kenneth Higdon, held its final meeting before the kickoff today. Higdon reported that contributors will have their choice of cash payment or signing a pledge card, payable monthly or quarterly over a period of one year.
A variety show to raise money for the drive will be presented May 10 in Hoch Auditorium, Ann Alexander, chairman of the Activities committee announced today. "This show will be bigger and better than anything ever before staged on this campus," she said.
Variety Show As Benefit
Ken Postlethwaite, director of the K.U. Memorial Association, emphasized the importance the students will play in this campaign.
Co-chairmen of the Memorial Drive committee are Nancy Tomlinson and Orville Roberts.

Toward Towering Stature
("El Dorado Times")
In the course of his straightforward and inspiring address to alumni and friends of the University of Kansas at a dinner in El Dorado Wednesday evening, Chancellor Deane Malott uttered this pungent statement of the ideal he holds for the institution under his able direction:
"I hope we can give to our students more than inert knowledge of life, but as well the judgment to select the best elements of it and the wisdom and curiosity to pursue it."
This is a tense way of saying that genuine education does not consist merely of remembered facts and lore, but rather constitutes a wide-open, friendly door to a superior way of life. If Deane Malott and his earnest associates at the university can open this door to the thousands who pass under their tutelage, they will have achieved the major portion of the high objective toward which they are striving.
The chancellor, as well as Justice Hugo T. Wedell and Fred Elsworth, alumni secretary, who also spoke on this local occasion, presented a revealing picture of the scope of university aims and ideals. The university is progressing scholastically, and this includes an expanded program of required courses in fundamental subjects that should serve to produce far better-rounded graduates. All the way thru the curriculum, emphasis is being placed heavily upon fitting students for full participation in the modern world with its changed conditions and tests. One could not listen to these representatives without believing that the university is being conducted by men and women with eyes open to the problems of the present, backed by the fortitude and wisdom of past accomplishments and experience.
The University of Kansas family sings of its alma mater "towering toward the blue". That word "towering" is not only outstanding in this entire expression of university fidelity, but proclaims the ambitions of the school's founders and of those today to whom its destinies are entrusted. Kansas, as is its custom, will support all its other state and denominational schools generously. It will not minimize them or their truly helpful functions, or neglect their nourishment and growth. But it has the opportunity to make of the institution on Mount Oread something of enduring superiority among educational institutions of the Middle West. And this requires far more than lip service and casual support but rather the exercise of devoted attention and even sacrifice to its needs
The University of Kansas can be transformed into a creation that is truly towering in all its stature—and all the elements are present to make it so if zeal does not lag.
"Carillon music is inspired and cleansing. A carillon tower is quite permanent and the basis for a great tradition at the University. As chimes pour forth their melodies everyone will be reminded of the great and noble sacrifices of our sons and daughters."—L. J. "Jack" Bond, 117, El-Dorado, Kansas.
"Because he is a living member of the class of '43, because the war has not escaped him personally, I feel that every member of our class will want to support a K.U. Memorial to those who shall not pass this way again."—Willis L. Tompkins, President, Class of 1943.
A Great Attraction
To find a place to listen to carillon music is always of importance. Such a place should be at least 500 feet from the bells and should combine quiet and an unobstructed view of the loure windows or the lantern of the tower.
The K.U. Memorial campanile will afford unexcelled opportunities for large numbers of persons to hear carillon recitals. No campanile in the world will be more admirably located for this purpose. There is room for at least 50,000 persons to be comfortably seated in the stadium, Potter lake area, Marvin grove, and other open areas north of the campus.
Carillon music is frequently called the "music of the masses" and the most democratic of all music. Because carillon music can be heard over such a wide area and because this campus has ample space for persons to sit and listen, recitals here will have a tremendous drawing power.
power.
Hugh Bancroft, Cohasset, Mass.
speaking of carillon recitals in that city said, "There were undoubtedly 25,000 listeners at each of our last two recitals."
The Mountain Lake, Fla., (Bok Singing Tower) recitals from December 1929 to April 1930, were attended by a total of more than 250,000 listeners; the average being approximately 5,000 listeners for each recital.
Since the K.U. campanile and carillon will afford opportunities for vast numbers of listeners to hear the carillon recitals, it is felt that the Mount Oread recitals will draw thousands of persons to Lawrence.
A "Living" Memorial
The world is full of monuments which are just as dead as the cause or the men whom they memorialize. Few there be which have captured a living quality as has the great Lincoln memorial in Washington, D.C. Following World War I many memorials were designed and built which, through being 100 per cent utilitarian, were planned as "living" monuments. Hospitals, stadia, gymnasia, theaters, recreation centers and many other buildings were baptized with the name "memorial" with the hope that those who used them in future years would be reminded of the heroic past.
the heretic pastitian aspects so far overshadowed their memorial intent that the even name, "Memorial", with which they had been so hopefully christened, fell into sad disguise.
Those men responsible for the planning and designing of the Memorials for World War II sacrifices have established a new trend—the "living" memorial. Designed to be of service to the community, the "living" memorial places the memorial function first, the utilitarian aspect second. Such a memorial is that planned for the University of Kansas.
Primarily it is a memorial which honors all K.U. men and women who served with the armed forces during the late war, and particularly pays homage to those who lost their lives. The landscaped scenic parkway will be literally "alive" through the many shrubs, trees, and flowers, which will be planted along its borders. Its beauty will be inspiring, will lift people up. No memorial could achieve more.
And for those who spend a year, or four years, on the campus of the University, the Memorial will become the focal point of their college memories.
The campanile will live through the music of the carillon. Its spinetingling music will be a source of inspiration to all who hear it. No youngster, on visiting the Hill for the first time, will leave without being thrilled and impressed by the towering campanile and the sonorous tones of the great bells. It will draw him back to the University as will no other single thing on Mount Oread. What more could a memorial achieve than to attract students to an institution dedicated to peaceful pursuits and the perpetuation of that peace?
K. U. will be a better, finer, lovelier place because of the World War II Memorial.
INQUIRING REPORTER (continued)
"Through the years, this Memorial Drive will become a true memorial to the sons and daughters of K.U. It is my studied opinion that it will do more for the University in a physical way than any other project which could be developed." — Edward W. Tanner, Kansas City, Mo.
Charles Elliott, College senior, Hal-stead: "As far as I'm concerned, I
think the drive,
the tower, and
the bells all will
be an excellent
memorial — It's
hard to put in
words what you
actually think it
about something
like this — why
think it's a good
idea and so
on. But to me,
just one reason
for its being a
good idea is that K.U. is going to continue to expand and we might as well build a scenic drive now that will accommodate an enlarged campus at a future date. Also, the campanile tower will draw thousands of visitors to the University — this will undoubtedly add to the prestige of the school. I definitely think its a good memorial."

Ben Ferenbaum. Business junior,
Kansas City, Mo.: "This will be a useful memorial as far as I can see—I really think its a good idea. The carillon bells certainly will be a lot better than the whistle we have now."

Bob White, College junior, Parsons: "Seems to me a memorial to the war dead should be something that could really be used — like a few badly needed new buildings. That's a lot of money to spend for a couple of bells."
Joan Carr, College senior, Kansas City, Mo.; "All that money would be much better spent on a lot of things this school really needs like housing units, loans for veterans, or scholarships."
Mary Morrill, College Senior, Hiawatha. "I like the Campanile and Parkway Memorial idea not only be

The only thing I would have changed maybe is the location of the drive, otherwise I think its fine."
Sally Fitzpatrick, College senior, Lawrence: "I think the scenic drive, the tower, and the carillon bells are all right for the memorial — if that's what it's to be, then everyone should support it."

Memorial Projects Planned By Many Schools and Cities
Compared with other school and community memorials in the nation, which have been announced, the proposed Memorial to be built on Mount Oread in Lawrence will be one of the great "living" monuments in the country.
The Kansas University World War II Memorial is to include a Campanile, housing a Carillon, and a Scenic Parkway built around the outer edge of the Hill. The Memorial will honor the 8,000 K.U. men and women who served in the armed forces during the recent war, and the more than 200 men and women from Kansas who lost their ership of Alf M. Laude lives
Memorials planned by other schools include: University of Arizona, student mem orial building; University of Alabama, memorial hall; Baker University, Baldwin, Kansas, memorial gymnasium; Kansas State College. $200,00 memorial chapel; Washburn College, Topeka, Kansas, memorial building; St. Benedicts, Atchison, Kansas, memorial college expansion building program;
Kansas State Teachers, Emporia,

Boston, Mass., granite shaft containing perpetual flame, memorial library and community meetings rooms; La Mesa, Calif., civic center; Nebraska City, Neb., individual trees planted in honor of the community's servicemen; Bowie, Tex., community center for youth; and Janesville, Wis., $2,500 "Shrine of Honor", a colonial style building housing war mementoes, and displaying on the exterior the names of all servicemen and women.
"Living Memorials" Most Desired In 1945 the magazine "American City"made a survey of 366 U.S. communities in an effort to learn what was the trend in World War II Memorials. Of 111 definitely chosen; 53 were community buildings or auditoriums; 27 parks, playgrounds or stadiums; seven libraries; six swimming pools; four airports; four groves, parkways and drives; two American Legion homes; two bridges; two hospitals; one "singing tower"; one Salvation Army center; one college memorial fund; and one museum with an auditorium.
Funds for these memorials were being raised by: public subscription, 33 per cent; the remainder by current municipal revenues, new taxes and bond issues.
Encirclement
"Not only will the winding road enhance the scenic beauty of the place but it will bind the University into a friendly campus, giving the atmosphere of a community. The driveway and tower will become a part of each student, giving all a feeling of encirclment in their place of learning. That encirclement, with its tower and chimes pealing forth across the valley, certainly will be a living memorial."—Eugenia Hepworth, Student.

The architects have suggested that the campanile, to conform with the majority of the other University buildings, be constructed of native Kansas stone. All of the walls, steps, and other appurtenances to the tower will also be of native stone.
In the base of the tower will be a Memorial hall, 25 by 35 feet, on the walls of which will be bronze plaques with the names of the more than 8,000 K.U. men and women who served in the armed forces during the war. In the center of the 30-foot-high room, plans call for a huge metal globe on which will be marked the various countries and islands in which University men and women were stationed.
Plan Garden of Memories
The tower also affords space for the large carillon (set of bell)s) and an apartment for the carillonneur which will include the carillon clavier (keyboard) room, dressing room, and shower. The dressing room and shower are necessary because playing the carillon requires great en-
CATHEDRAL OF THE HOLY APOSTLE
High open arches will be placed in the four sides of the Memorial hall. The north arch will lead to a balcony overlooking the Parkway and the Kaw valley. The east and west arches will open onto 150-foot long pergolas while the south arch will give access to a Garden of Memories. The Garden of Memories, when screened by the tower, the pergolas, and Frank Strong hall, will be a place of quiet refuge, beautifully landscaped and including a fountain and pool.

To Have Individual Memorials
To Have Individual Memorials The pergolas will be roofted but open on all sides. Fitted with benches, they will afford visitors and students of the University an unexcelled opportunity to enjoy the panorama of the wide Kaw valley. Space will be available in the pergolas and the garden of Memories for many individual memorials to K.U. men and women who lost their lives in the recent war. Steps will lead from each of the pergolas to the Memorial parkway.
Campanile Adds Beauty
"These plans," Mr. Neville said, are still in the preliminary stage and are still subject to considerable change. However, I feel that the Memorial spirit has been captured in the designs and the campanile will contribute greatly to the beauty of the University campus."
Mr. Neville, a member of the K.U. engineering class of 1923, has cooperated in the design of the Kansas City Municipal auditorium, buildings at the Kansas City Municipal airport, and many other notable structures in the middle west.
Working with Mr. Neville on the
campanile design is Edward Buehler Delk, consulting architect for the Kansas City Park board. Delk is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and came to Kansas City years ago to design and lay out the Country Club Plaza district.

How Much Should I Give?
How much should you give? As much as you can! You are asked to contribute, frequently, to many worth-while projects which have no direct connection with the University This week you have an opportunity to give to a project which will add immeasurably to the beauty and future of K.U. You can't give too much.
After World War I students pledged $160,000 of the total fund of one million dollars for a memorial. With almost twice as many students now as there were in 1920, students are asked to contribute only $10,000 of a half-million dollar fund.
Although cash subscriptions are desired, students who wish to make pledges may do so. Pledges should be made payable within one year, and may be paid in either monthly, quarterly or annual payments.
Memorial Drive Will Cross Ruts of Old Oregon Trail
Says Ken Higdon, Student Committee, financial chairman: "No sum is too small nor too large to be acceptable. I hope the students will cooperate in this drive and assure themselves of a share in the Memorial project."
"I believe I express the desire of the class of 1936 in endorsing a K.U. Memorial, which will memorialize six men of our class who died in order that we, the survivors, might enjoy the American life. Things go on without them, but we should support whole-heartedly any project which will forever remind us of their deeds and sacrifices." — Dana Durand, President, Class of 1936.
The Scenic Parkway, to be built on Mt. Oread as a part of the K.U. Worcester War II Memorial, will have "historical significance," according to Prof. Robert Taft, of the University chemistry department and author of the book, "Across the Years on Mount Oread."
"Even before the day of the traveler," Professor Taft writes, "on this height (Mt. Oread) stood many a Kanza warrior viewing a land that was literally the happy hunting ground. From this promontory, Monchonsia, chief of the Kanza tribe, may have*
chief of the Kanza tribe, may have viewed the great flood of 1844, which transformed the region into a vast inland sea."
"As the waters receded and time passed, Monchonsia could also have seen from this same headland a growing number of caravans bound for the Shining mountain sand for the oceans beyond, caravans whose predecessors for a quarter of a century had gradually deepened the ruts of the famous Oregon Trail."
"Beginning in 1849," Taft continues, "there plodded up the southern slope of Mt. Oread a vast emigration bound for the golden land of California. One branch of the great California and Oregon trail, still unnoted and unmarked, thus passed over the very ground now part of the University campus."
According to preliminary plans for the Driveway, a part of it will be laid over the ruts of the old Oregon trail. Memorial association officials expressed the hope that the portion of the Driveway which traversed the pioneer route might be suitably marked in some way.
"Among the first to settle the new territory was a band of New Englanders who, on the first day of August, 1854, camped on this same promontory and found the land beneath them good and their journey at an end. Thus Lawrence was born and the promontory named 'Mount Oread,' from Oread Institute in a far-off town in Massachusetts which, like the present University, occupied a commanding site overlooking its town."
"Even after 1849," Professor Taft writes, "the immigration continued and numerous were the travelers who cast envious eyes on the fertile valleys below, once they had gained Mt. Oread's height. But the land was reserved for its original inhabitants 'as long as the grass should grow and the water should run.' Water stopped running and the grass ceased to grow in a few short years as far as the politicians at Washington were concerned; for, in 1854, the land was removed from the Red Man's domain and given to the white man.
PARKWAY ROUTE
"My three sons were all in the war—and though not K.U, students—for their sake I would to help out on this alive memorial."—Nettie Manley Lyon, '01, Topeka, Kans.
Although not yet definitely determined, it is planned that the Memorial Driveway will be built from a formal entrance to be erected in the vicinity of 13th and Orread streets down the slope north and west of the Memorial Union.
West of the Union the driveway will follow up the present Mississippi'ippi approach to the Hill branching off North of Bailey Chemical laboratories. Curving around through the upper edge of Marvin Grove the road will emerge onto the promontory north of the center of Frank Strong Hall. It is on this same point where the Memorial Campanile will be built.
Leaving the promontory the parkway will be built south and west above Potter Lake and north of Snow Hall, curving up to the present campus drive at the intersection near the Engineering School.
If sufficient funds are available, the Driveway will be extended around the south side of the Hill. Passing in a circle west of Lindley Hall, the road will run approximately midway between the Military Science Building and Hoch Auditorium. Then it will curve down towards Sixteenth Street below the University utility buildings connecting with the present South approach to the Hill.
If additional funds are available a North spur to the Memorial Driveway will be built. It will be constructed from the junction at the west end of the campus in a northeasterly direction past the new recreation area above Potter Lake and on down the Hill to join Maine street just west of the stadium.
At the first thought the selection of a Driveway as one of the two sections of the University of Kansas World War II Memorial seems too common to merit either attention or interest. Deeper study, however, reveals that a Scenic Driveway is singularly appropriate as a memorial to the men and women who fought, and those who died, that the world might be a place of peace and freedom.
The history of roads is the history of civilization. Where roads went, civilization followed. Where they ended, it stopped. The Nazis and Jap., in their enormous conquests, cut off all roads to the world outside the territories which they dominated. Victory came for the subjected peoples only when the Allie pushed roads, on land, sea and air, back into Europe and the Orient.
Consequently it seems entirely fitting to memorialize those who opened up the channels of communication which brought peace to the earth, with a road devoted to beauty and built on a Hill dedicated to the best in life.
Will Be a Mecca
"When the World War II committee decided upon a Memorial Campus Driveway with a Campanile and Carillon the action met with, my enthusiastic support. I can envisage this driveway encircling historic old Mt. Cread with numerous scenic bay recesses. . . . Through the ages it will bring friends and loved ones back to the campus to renew the memories of imperishable acts of our heroes of the World War II. Our University of Kansas will become a mecca. The symphony of the chimes will forever be a reverent tribute to the Kansas youth who have served us so faithfully and so well. Truly this project is a living memorial." -Forrest C. Allen, Director of Physical Education and Basketball Coach.
"Is it not permissable to feel that works of art are more likely to recall to our descendants the deeds of their ancestors than swimming pools; memorial trees, or recreational centers? This is not to say that useful purposes necessarily defeat the real object of a memorial; if they are worthy of notice it is because they were also endowed with beauty." - Paul P. Cret, chairman, Committee on War Memorials, Amer. Inst. of Architects.
. "Our own University has a memorial project which I feel certain we all heartily endorse. Every effort should be made by us to help fulfill this most worthwhile and lasting memorial."—Clyde L. Smith, President, Class of 1939.

Progress On Campaign Reported As "Good"
K. U. Alumni are supporting the World War II Memorial, to be built on Mount Oread,"magnificently", according to a statement released today by Ken Postlethwaite, Organization Director of the Memorial Association.
"Alumni organizations," Postlethwaite said, "have accepted quotas for more than $300,000 of the memorial fund and are now at work securing contributions. We are exceedingly hopeful over the results of the campaign thus far and believe that the full amount of $500,000 will be subscribed without difficulty."
Kansas City, Mo., according to the Association's report, has accepted a quota of $100,000—the largest single share of the Memorial fund taken by any alumni group. Under the leadership of Dorman H. O'Leary, vice president of the Cook Paint and Varnish company and general chairman for the Kansas City campaign, K.U. alumni will conduct a drive this spring.
In the campaign for funds for KU, U's World War I Memorial, the two Kansas City's subscribed 20 per cent of the $1,000,000 goal. In the current campaign, Kansas City, Mo., is taking a 20 per cent share by itself. Kansas City, Kans., working independently, will raise $25,000.
Chairman of the Kansas City, Kans. general campaign is Nona E. Snyder, attorney.
Lawrence Campaign Continue
The only campaign in the country being conducted by a community for the Memorial is at Lawrence. Endorsed by the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce and operating under the direction of Chairman Charles Radcliffe. Lawrence will raise a $50,000 fund for the memorial project.
Faculty and staff members of the University are cooperating in the Lawrence drive under the chairmanship of Dr. Bert A. Nash.
Other K.U. alumni groups in Kansas which will start drives for funds this spring are: Topeka, $30,000, chairman Dean Akers; Wichita, $30-, chairman Laurence Figge; Atchison, $4,200, chairman Fritz Smith; El Dorado, $4,375; Ottawa, $5,000, chairman R. D. Harris; and many others.
Out of State Campaigns
Alumni in many out-of-state communities also plan campaigns for this spring. Already underway are drives in Los Angeles for $12,000; San Francisco for $4,000; and Chicago for $7,- 000.
Drives in New York, Philadelphia Washington, Detroit, Bartlesville Okla. Tulsa, Oklahoma City and many other cities are planned.
"Alumni everywhere", Postleth-
waite said, "have been enthusiastic
about the Memorial project. Many of them have not seen the University for years, nor will they see it as frequently as they would wish. But they are not critical about what is to be built. They accept, in good faith, the fact that the members of the committee which selected the Memorial recommended the best possible sort of a Memorial.
"Their faith in the University and its people and their willingness to give generously give us great hopes for the success of this campaign."
Student Committee Plans Hill Drive
The University drive which began today has been organized by the Student Memorial Drive committee under the chairmanship of Nancy Tomlinson.
This representative group of university students has been working the past month on the organization and presentation of the university drive for the war memorial. The committee has four divisions: financial, activities, speakers and publicity.
the financial committee includes:
chairman, Ken Higdon, Business junior;
Charles Crowley, Business junior;
Jane Kendal, College freshman;
Mariette Bennett, College senior;
Shirley Wellborn, College sophomore;
Anne Stevens, College senior;
Alberta Moe, College junior.
The activities committee is headed by Ann Alexander, Fine arts freshman, the membership of the committee includes; Lorraine Carpenter, College sophomore; Betty Jo O'Neal, College senior; Virginia Wickert, Business junior; and Mila Williams, fine arts freshman.
The Publicity committee is: chairman, Hilly Stong, Engineering senior; Pat Elledge, College freshman; and Cathy Piller, College sophomore.
The committee for speaking in the organized houses includes: chairman, Jim Crook, College junior; Terry Herriott, College sophomore; Byron Shutz, College freshman.
--the committee, in searching for the ideal memorial, kept four principles in mind:
Questions and Answers
As you have heard about the University's World War II memorial during the past few months, and thought about it, you undoubtedly have had questions.
"If I could just get hold of someone who knows what it's all about and get some concrete information," you have exclaimed, "I'd feel more like contributing."
We'll try to beat you to the draw, this time, and answer a few of the things you have been wondering.
You did. Before the Memorial committee, composed of alumni and students, met to choose the memorial, all students were invited to give suggestions. The committee then carefully considered anything which you wanted and suggested.
"Why didn't I have a chance to help choose the memorial?"
"Why were the driveway, campanile, and carillon chosen?"
1. The memorial should be something which would not be provided by other means.
2. It should have a memorial function and appeal.
3. It should benefit a majority of the students.
4. It should endure.
Dormitories — class buildings — field house — swimming pool — addition to the Memorial Union — campus planting and landscaping — radio center — international relations scholarships — these, and others were suggested, but none answered the four qualifications for a really appropriate, living memorial.
Construction of the driveway and campanile will begin when all the money has been collected, probably in about a year, and will take eight months. The memorial, then, should be completed early in 1948.
How much will it cost?
The scenic driveway, it is estimated, will cost about $250,000, with another $250,000 for the campanile and carillon, making a total of $500,-000 for the entire project.
"When will the memorial be finished?"
TEMPLIN DREAMED OF CAMPANILE 16 YEARS AGO
"How will all that money be raised?"
Alumni and friends of the University will contribute the entire amount There will be no bonds or indebtedness.
"How much will it cost?"
You don't. The campus campaign for funds is being conducted, by students, to give those who want it a chance to have a real part in a living memorial for your friends and fellow students who served in World War II.
"Why do I have to give?"
Although they are a memorial to KU. men and women who served in World War II, the campanile and carillon to be mounted on Mount Oread are, in effect, also a memorial to the late Dean Olin Templin who conceived the idea of Pioneer Memorial to be built at the Univ. in the form of a campanile with carillon. The proposed Pioneer Memorial campanile was to have been an obelisk, a replica of the Washington Monument, 333 feet high. At the top was planned an observation room capped by a glass pyramidion which would have been illuminated at night so that it would be visible from a great distance.
Dean Templin proposed that the substructure for the campanile be built of stone from old Snow Hall. It was to include a lobby, two memorial halls, record rooms and other public rooms. On the walls of the memorial halles were to have been the names of 10,000 Kansas pioneers.
According to Dean Templin, the government should have financed the building of the Pioneer Memorial.
"The Free State Hotel," he wrote,
"which was built at a cost of $50,000 by the Massachusetts Emigrant Aid
(1)
Dean Templin
Company, was wantonly destroyed by officers of the Federal Government on May 21, 1856. The motive was to prevent immigrants arriving from New England to make the place their home while locating government claims. These immigrants were opposed to slavery.
"The value of that building, $50,000, with reasonable interest added, constitutes a just claim against the government and ought long since to have been discharged. It is now asked that the amount necessary for the proposed memorial be allotted for the purpose stated, in return for which the parties at interest are to relinquish all claims for further payment."
Now that Dean Templin's campanile and carillon idea has been incorporated in the K.U. World War II Memorial, his dreams will finally be realized.
Dean Templin was never able to follow through on his proposed memorial. The government failed to consider his claim for the Free State Hotel and a general campaign for contributions throughout Kansas had to be abandoned because of the widespread financial depression of the times.
The carillon will, as he wrote "sound the call to work for students of the University; it will pour into the ears of these young people the total beauty for which many other campuses are already famous. This music of the bells will bind the hearts of all Kansans to the University as nothing else can do, and they will bind these hearts to the past and to the memories of their state."

THE TOWER OF THE COLLEGE
THE BOK SINGING TOWER at Mountain Lake, Florida, is one of the outstanding campanili of the country. Built by Edward Bok, noted publisher, in memory of his mother, the tower and carillon are one of the great tourist attractions of Florida. During the five months of the year when carillon recitals are given at the tower, an estimated 250,000 persons are in attendance.
Four Purposes ...
There are now planned for the University new buildings which will cost in excess of one million dollars and for which funds are assured. When materials and men are available construction will begin on five residence halls; engineering shops building; addition to Watson library; addition to Memorial Union; and remodelling of the present Fowler Shops for use by the new William Allen White School of Journalism
Since the present campus, atop Mt. Oread, affords no new building sites, expansion of the University plant will have to go north and south of the Hill. The construction of the Memorial Driveway around the periphery of Mt. Oread will open up new campus areas and tie in the new buildings with the rest of the University.
Besides being a memorial to the sacrifices of K U. men and women in World War II, the Scenic Driveway to be built on Mt. Oread as a part of the University Memorial has three other important functions according to a statement released by Justice Hugo T. Wedell, president of the K U. Memorial Association.
"We are planning," Justice Wedell said, "a beautiful, enduring and fitting memorial to the 8,000 KU. men and women who took part in the recent war. The Driveway and Campanile are designed specifically for that purpose.
The three purposes outlined by Justice Wedell are: serving the campus of the future; beautifying the present campus; and developing a model which other schools and communities will be interested in following.
"Fortunately, however, the Memorial will serve three other valuable purposes."
"The present campus at the University of Kansas," Justice Wedell continued, "is already considered one of the finest in the country. The addition of a splendid scenic driveway with its plantings, skillfully blended into the present scene, will make Mt.
Oread a place of transcendent beauty. We feel certain that when this Memorial project is completed we will be able to say that K.U. has the loveliest campus of any school any where."
Justice Wedell stressed the mission of the University not only as a tramer of leaders but in actually displaying leadership.
Justice Hugo T. Wedell
"It is important," he said, "to realize that what we build in the way of a Memorial on Mt. Oread will stand as a model to other schools and communities. Thousands of students and visitors will see what has been done in Lawrence to memorialize the University's contribution to victory in war. If what they see is inspiring and good, they will want to emulate it in their home communities.
P. R. S. C.
"This 'living' memorial, with its trees, flowers, shrubs, lawns and music, will be worthy of emulation wherever men live together in peace and freedom."

A hundred and fifty years ago small pox in epidemic extent was common. It was almost a rarity to see a face unmarked by small pox scars.
It was long known that cowpox an animal disease not unlike smallpox in humans—could be spread from cows or horses to humans Edward Jenner, small town English physician, wondered if cowpox a relatively harmless infection—would protect humans against smallpox. On May 14, 1796, he took some matter from a cowpox sore on the hand of a dairy maid and rubbed it into scratches on the arm of a healthy 10-year-old boy. A cowpox sore developed and then healed.
Two months later Jenner tried unsuccessfully to infect the boy with smallpox. Thus was born scientific vaccination against smallpox.
Today smallpox vaccine is produced under strictest precautions and包aged in individual sterile doses. Pressed into the skin—the scratch method is absolote—it produces in the person who does not have immunity to smallpox a pustule less than dime-size, which heals in three to four weeks leaving a faint scar the diameter of a lead penil.
In the immune or partially immune person the reaction varies from a tiny pimple-like eruption lasting a few days to a slightly larger cluster of pimples disappearing without scar in two weeks.
Preferred site of vaccination is on the upper arm. Here healing is rapid, the chance of bruising is minimum and normal activities are not hindered. Vanity sometimes demands vaccination on the thigh—a procedure entirely without merit. Bruising is more frequent, healing is slower and the scar is larger and no more apt to remain concealed.
To assure against smallpox, vaccination should be given in infancy, again when the child starts to school, and then at five-year intervals. If immunity persists, there will be no response to re-vaccination; if immunity has waned re-vaccination again establishes protection.
Where vaccination is compulsory, smallpox has disappeared. Kansas, without compulsory vaccination, averages about 25 cases a year. The last major epidemic occurred in 1922.
Smallpox kills only a few of its victims, but it scars them all. Smallpox is preventable by harmless vaccination. Protection is yours for the asking.

SPOTLIGHT ON SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
All-American Bob Kurland is slated to enter two events at the Penn Relays this spring. Kurland has said he will compete in the high jump and discus.
Bob Fenimore, Oklahoma Aggie gridiron star, also will enter, and will compete in the sprint events.
Kurland should be able to cop the high jump without much trouble. He could step higher than a lot of men could jump. If Fenimore evades opposing sprinters with the same skill he eluded enemy tacklers on the gridiron, he should be able to win first place in a walk.

The turbulent Mexican baseball league is staying in the headlines with the traffic of American ball players across the border increasing daily.
Vernon Stephens lasted in the outlaw league three days before he decided to return to the St. Louis Browns. Stephens turned down an offer of $125,000 for five years after the president of the league had said he would place $50,000 of it in an American bank as a guarantee.
Stephens returned to the Browns, Catcher Mickey Owen of the Brooklyn Dodgers has said he might confer with his former club about going back to them. He added that he definitely wants to know more about why Stephens jumped the Mexican league. So the Dodgers may have Owen behind the plate this season after all.
Two Negro rookies have been assigned to the Brooklyn Dodgers' Nashau farm club by the parent club. Assignment of the Negroes to the Nashau club was in line with the Dodger policy of giving talented Negroes an opportunity to make good in organized baseball.
Two other Negroes, Jackie Robinson and John Wright, have signed contracts with the Dodgers' Montreal club in the International league.
It will be interesting to see if these players can make good in organized ball. There should be no reason they can't stick if they have the talent. There is no doubt that Satchel Paige could have been one of the greatest pitchers in the major leagues if he had been given the opportunity. Many baseball experts have called Paige the greatest pitcher of all time.

Kansas Relays Famous 23 Years; They Began As Outland's Dream
On April 20, another colorful array of track and field stars will gather in Memorial stadium for the 21st annual Kansas Relays.
It will be almost 23 years to the day since another such star-studded field of athletes participated in the first running of the Kansas Relays. This now famous track and field event first took place on April 23, 1923.
And it all began as the dream of Dr. John H. Outland. Outland came to the University as a freshman in 1893, and he lettered in football as a fullback and tackle in his first year of varsity competition. He transferred to the University of Pennsylvania in 1895, and the Penn Relays was founded while he was a student there. It was then that Outland conceived his idea for such an event in the middle west.
Dr. Outland returned to the University in 1920, and approached Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen with his idea. Allen was enthusiastic, and plans were formulated that spring for the beginning of the Kansas Relays. Allen made radio speeches, distributed stickers, and printed a 62-page program in order to promote interest.
Response to the initial Relays was better than had been expected. All of the Missouri Valley conference schools were present; the Big Ten was represented; several Southwestern conference schools sent entries; and a team from Pennsylvania came to the first performance.
The Kansas carnival rates high among the many famous outdoor relays such as the Penn, Texas, Drake, Colorado, and Illinois relays.
The Kansas squad, coached by Karl Schlademan, won both the 440- yard and the half-mile relays, and picaed high in the other four events
Since the first Relays in 1923, many records have been established and many trophies have been given away. Such outstanding track stars are Glenn Cunningham, Gene Venske, Charles Fenske, James Bansch, Ralph Metcalf, Glenn Morris, Fred Wolott, Elmer Hackney, and Campbell Kane have competed in this annual event.
This year's carnival promises to pick up where it left off when the event was interrupted by the war. Several famous stars already have entered, and many more are expected to send entries this week. The Kansas Relays will once again take its place among the topnotch track and field meets.

She plans to do graduate work toward a master's degree in personnel administration next year.
W. A.A., intramurals, and personnel administration don't take all of her time, however. She is a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority, has served on the AH-Student council, is a member of the Y.W.C.A. board, Pan-Hellenic council, Quack club, and was recently initiated into Mortar Board, honorary society for senior women.
Softball and volleyball rate highest with Marge, but her KU tennis record shows that she partici- pates in almost every intramural sport.
Marge wishes she had more time to wear long shirts and blue jeans and laments the fact that veterans don't like them. The one thing she really has a passion for, she says, is spaghetti and meat balls. The envy of all her spaghetti- loving friends for being an expert at twirling it around a fork. Marge has a dislike for people who cut the stuff up into small pieces.

Miss Maude Ellsworth, instructor in the design department, recently returned from St. Louis, where she presided at an afternoon program of a midwestern art teacher's convention.
Drake Mile Star In Outdoor Debut Here
Young Bill Mack of Drake, the Midlands' new mile sensation, will make his outdoor debut at the twenty-first annual Kansas Relays here.April 20.
hertemphly enough, the 18-year old Bulldog freshman begins his collegiate outdoor career in the Glenn Cunnnhgam mile, feature event of the revived Javahawk games.
A standout on the first time he laced on a Drake track shoe last fall, Mack startled the track world March 28 running a 4:19.0 mile at the Chicago
The youthful Drake star finished fourth in that race, but his spectacular time drew Mack his first national attention. A teen-age freshman running a 4:19 mile on an 11-lap board track was something no one had anticipated.
Mack's running career started two years ago when he was a junior in high school at Argo, Ill. That season he was runnerup in the mile at the state high school meet. Last year he won the crown.
For many years track fans have been looking for another Cunningham. On his record to date Mack has all the marks of achieving that designation within the next couple of years.
The Drake yearling is bending all efforts toward making his outdoor unveiling a success. With the idea of becoming the first winner of the Cunningham mile here, Mack passed up the Texas Relays to stay in Des Moines and work on his running technique.

Game Wardens Add Rare Fish to Dyche Collection
Several fish have been added to the collection in Dyche museum through the courtesy of Fred Anderson and Olin Mickley, state game and fish wardens.
The spoonbill, fresh water fish found in large rivers and ox-bov lakes in the Mississippi range, was caught in Murray's lake, Miami county. This fish is rare in collections and is the first on record in Dyche museum, Claude Hibbard curator, said. Another specimen of this species was reported in 1910, but was not found.
A long nosed gar and a short nosed gar were also caught.

Lewis Walks Out On Coal Conference
Washington. (UP) — Negotiations to end the 10-day coal strike collapsed abruptly today when John L. Lewis dramatically walked out with the declaration that the conferences were futile.
The walkout of the United Mine workers from the meeting with operators appeared certain to force the government's hand if the strike of 400,000 soft coal diggers is to be settled before it cripples industrial reconversion.
The next move appeared to be set up to Secretary of Labor Lewis B. Schwellenbach, who said yesterday the government would give the miners and operators a few more days to reach an agreement on their own.
New York. (UP)—Concert violinist Fritz Kreisler sold his 235-year-old Stradivarius violin for "something less" than its assessed value of $80,000, he said today.

'Germans Doing Atom Research In Spain-'Poland
BULLETIN
New York. (UP)—Authoritative Polish sources revealed today that Poland has evidence indicating that German scientists hiding in Spain are working under the auspices of the Franco Spanish regime on atomic and rocket research.
New York. (UP)—Poland demanded United Nations security council action against Franco Spain today, implying that German scientists hiding in Spain may be working on atomic energy research.
The Polish complaint poses another major crisis for the council when it meets again Monday—the date set at a secret council meeting today for considering Russia's attempt to eliminate the Iranian case from the council's jurisdiction.
In a formal complaint against Spain and a request for unspecified council action, Polish Ambassador Oscar Lenge charged, without elaboration:
The United States and Great Britain have indicated opposition to discussion of the Spanish situation in the security council. The state department in Washington announced earlier today that the United States had rejected a French proposal to apply economic sanctions against Spain but left the door open for further discussion of the suggestion, probably at the forthcoming foreign minister's meeting in Paris.
"The Franco regime . . . allows and promotes scientific research by German scientists engaged in devising new means of warfare."
K.U. Farm Proposed For Recreation Center
Dancing in a three-story barn, a golf driving range, picnic grounds, and bridle paths were listed as possibilities on the proposed University recreation farm in a report to the All-Student Council last night
classes.
Dean Werner also suggested that the council appropriate funds to cover part of the cost, and to confer with Chancellor Deane W. Malott on the possibility of the University's contributing as much as $1,000 to the project.
Shirley Wellborn headed a committee, including Joan Anderson and Mary Jane Zollinger, which investigated the farm during the past week.
She reported an interview with Henry Werner, dean of student affairs, in which he suggested the committee find out if Gayle Mott, equitation instructor, would live on the farm and operate concessions there in addition to holding his classes.
The farm is now owned by the University Endowment association, and is occupied by tenants. It is located a miles southwest of the campus. If used by the University, the land would be tax-free.
Publication of the "Bitter Bird" campus humor magazine, during the school year 1946-47 was approved by the All-Student Council last night.
Bird' Authorized For Next Year
The A.S.C. approved issue of the magazine next year without limiting the number of editions, following an appearance of Terry Herriot, editor-in-chief, before the council.
Herrick read several letters from faculty members and students appraising the issue. He also pointed out that the magazine is a non-profit enterprise, representative of the entire student body.

P.S.G.L. Plans For Spring Election
Plans for the P.S.G.L. nominating convention to be held April 25 in the Union building, were discussed at a meeting Tuesday night of the P.S.G.L. Senate in Battenfeld hall.
The Senate announced its intention of running a man for president of the All-Student Council. In order for any person to be nominated for office, the Senate ruled that a petition bearing 25 signatures must be submitted to Guy Ashcraft before midnight, April 23. Petitions for president must bear 50 signatures.

B.G.L. will nominate candidates as follows: district one (the College) four; district two (School of Engineering) two; district three (Schools of Business, Fine Arts, Pharmacy, and the Graduate school) two; district four (Schools of Law and Medicine) one.
Election at the Convention will be by secret ballot. Three minute nominating speeches will be permitted.
These problems, solutions of which will be presented within the next 10 days, concerned the point from which the drive will start north of the Union and the part of the drive which will be built on the south side of the Hill.

of the Hill.
The plans presented by the architects showed that it might start at a point between the Union and Dyche museum. The board preferred to have it start north of the Union and go down the hill much as the old road goes but changed so the road won't be so steep. Mr. Postlethwaite explained.
Two specific problems in plans for the Memorial drive remain unsolved, Kennecott Postlethwaite, organization director, said today after a meeting with a representative from the Kansas City architecture firm of Hare & Hare and the Memorial association executive board.
The All-Student Council went on record last night as supporting any changes necessary to permit Negro participation in Big Six athletics.

George Caldwell, chairman of the committee investigating the racial policies of the Big Six and Kansan athletic associations, said that Negroes are excluded from participation by "an agreement of policy" and not by rule. Faculty members who represent the schools in the conference are responsible for this agreement, according to W. W. Davis, professor of history and K.U.'s Big Six representative, he reported.
Investigation was started by the Council last week following the reading of a letter by Luther Buchele, Y.M.C.A. president, protesting exclusion of Negroes.
Caldwell said that Professor Davis told them that a two-thirds vote of the six-man board which governs Big Six athletics would be necessary to change the present policy and that chances for such action are "slim at present."
Caldwell reported that present Kansas Relay regulations require participating athletes to be eligible in their own conference. Under this system, Big Six schools may not enter Negro athletes although other schools are sending such competitors.
He suggested that a campaign to arouse student opinion might be the fastest way to achieve a change. Pres. Milton Eisenhower of Kansas State is against discrimination, Caldwell said and Chancellor Deane W. Malott has stated that he has no objections to Negro participation in the events.

Dandelion Dig This Afternoon Despite Clouds
Only a cloud-burst or a six-inch snow will postpone Dandelion day scheduled to begin at 4 this afternoon, sponsors say.
A whistle at 4 p.m. will cut short the 3:30 classes. Food booths go into operation at that time, serving hot dogs, baked beans, potato chips, ice cream bars, and cold drinks.
A "Life" photographer will be on hand to take pictures, Charles Wright, founder of Dandelion day, will be here to crown the queen and confer the degree on the most popular faculty member, the YWCA has food for 4,000 starving diggers, and Lynn Craig's band will play for a street dance in front of the Chemistry laboratory.
As the baskets are filled, workers will deposit them in booths in front of Snow hall and Fowler shops. The "two for one" slogan is being carried out with one bushel dug entitling a person to a vote for his favorite student queen candidate and faculty member.
The queen coronation and the conferring of the degree on the faculty member will take place at 8 p.m. during the intermission of the street dance which will be held from 7:30 to 9:30.

The state department has announced what it believes may be a method for international atomic energy control.
A.D.A. And The Future
The plan, still in general terms, called the Atomic Development Authority, proposes the formation of an international technological monopoly of atomic energy development under the control of the United Nations.
This state department report was first submitted to the senate atomic energy committee on March 25. Committee members agree it will touch off one of the most heated debates in a long time.
The A.D.A. has far-reaching implications. National states would no longer have complete sovereignty. Persons would have a direct responsibility and obligation to the United Nations to preserve world security. Anyone violating that trust by research or other actions directed at atomic weapons could not hide behind national protection to escape prosecution.
This body would have authority transcending national powers. It is recommended that all deposits of fissionable materials would be under its control. All nations would have the right to develop atomic energy for peacetime uses only. Plants would be closely supervised and all those working in them would be directly responsible to the international authority. They would have to account to the United Nations for any actions and research considered detrimental to world security.
This is as it must be. Unrestricted nationalism became obsolete when the first atomic bomb devastated Hiroshima. Atomic energy scientists, who will be most directly affected by such a plan have given their support to the A.D.A.
Research would not be throttled as long as that research is directed toward peaceful utilization of atomic energy and is not carried on in secret. Stockpiles of vital materials would be limited to absolute peacetime needs.
Walter Lippmann, writing recently on the subject of international security, said, "The principle is to make individuals, not sovereign states, the objects of international agreements; it is to have those laws operate upon individuals." This principle is part of the state department's recommendations.
In making the plan public, Secretary of State James Byrnes pointed out that, "The document is being made public not as a statement of final policy but as a basis of discussion . . . which is one of the essential factors in the development of a sound policy."
Any effective international machinery for control of atomic research will affect all of us directly or indirectly. The solution of this problem must take top priority in the minds of all Americans. We brought the atomic bomb to the world. It is our responsibility to lead the way to its control.
K-State Follows K.U.. Abolishes Hell Week---'In Policy, Anyway'
While K.U. fraternities were trying out their short-lived ban on paddling in any way, shape or form, Kansas State fraternities also placed a temporary ban on paddles and hazing in general which is still in effect.
According to spokesman Jim Davis, the temporary ban on any type of hazing will be effective until a permanent resolution can be passed. The K-State council is now trying to find a definition of "pre-initiation practices which are injurious to health, morals or the public's respect," and when a definition without any loopholes can be drawn up, the resolution will be incorporated into the council's laws.
Davis said that recognition of the value of the K.U. ban and the belief that physical and mental punishment is of little value in training men led to the unanimous action a short time after K.U. passed its original prohibitory resolution.
Davis, president of the council and a member of Delta Tau Delta fraternity, says fraternity activities at K-State are nearing an all-time peak. Fourteen fraternities are active on the campus and many are through pledging for the year because of full memberships. Four fraternity houses, loaned to the college for use as girls' dormitories, will be returned to the fraternities at the end of this semester.
The K-State Inter- Fraternity council is much the same as the K.U. version. The council is made up of one representative from each of the fraternities and meets with the Women's Pan-Hellenic council to decide political and other matters affecting the Greek organizations.
The word "Greek" at K-State is misleading for the two agricultural
Most of the Inter-Fraternity council rules there, like the K.U. rules, deal with regulation of rush week, pledging and initiation. To be initiated in a recognized fraternity at KSC, an initiate must have earned a C average while carrying at least 12 hours of college work.
fraternities, Farm House and Alpha Gamma Rho, belong to the Inter-Fraternity council along with the Greek letter organizations.
Political influence of the Greek organizations is about equal with that of the Independent Student association which usually captures most of the freshman and sophomore offices while the Greeks take the junior and senior offices. How much effect the increased enrollment of men will make in the political battle between tie Greeks and Independents will be seen at the student election next month.

Glass Houses. People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones and people who live in sorority houses shouldn't leave their shade up.
Take for example Ann Brown. She was asked in her history class the other day by a veteran, "You're a Gamma Phi, aren't you?" When he received an affirmative answer, he commented, "Well, you and I are neighbors."
Upon further investigation she found that the veteran was Russell Atha, returned Sigma Chi, who lived next door on Ann's side of the Gamma Phi abode.
Reason Enough for Excitement.
Toby Brumback, TKE, sent the following telegram to his parents last weekend. "Friend just arrived from overseas. Won't be home for the weekend."
Toby and his buddy, Wayne Dewey, then proceeded to hold a reunion in the City. Returning Sunday, he found there had been several frantic calls from his parents. It seems the telegram read this way when delivered to them, "Son just arrived from overseas . . ." Parents worry about things like that.
On Wheels?? The Phi Pesi's and Kappa's started out on wheels Saturday morning at their skating party but the majority of them spent most of the morning in the sitting and reclining position. In fact Terry Herriot and his date Sue Newcomer claim to be the only ones who didn't fall down. The fact that they didn't skate for more than 10 minutes may have had something to do with that.

"This is the earliest we have ever had to sprinkle the laws," W. C. Johnson, memoirs engineer, said today. "Our team们 aren't started until June or July."
You're All Wet But Only From Our Sprinklers
Fifteen sprinklers, in their first spring appearance watered the lawn and unwary students with equal enthusiasm.
The revolving sprinklers turn because of the force of water power against the revolving head. While turning, they water weeds, grass, and the unobservant at a rate of 250 gallons each minute.
The sprinklers are also the reason students have to bend "way down" for a drink of water at their favorite contain, according to Mr. Sanderson.
"When we have the sprinklers out, it keeps the water pressure very low," he said.
Inconsistencies spring up in sprinkling as in any other business it seems. For instance, three men were working in front of the library with a pail, a section of grass marked off with white string, and a spray. They were not 50 feet from three very active sprinklers.
What were they doing?
The nearest sprinkler slowed down noticeably
"This stuff we're putting down will kill any broad-bladed weed." the spokesman for the group volunteered.

SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
Henry Iba, whose Oklahoma Aggie basketball and wrestling teams were national champions this year and whose football team was undefeated last fall, has proposed a uniform collegiate athletic scholarship program controlled by a czar.
Iba proposed that equal scholarships should be established in all conferences, and no one of them should offer more inducement than the other. He also said that the heads of the various conferences should get together and agree on standards, and then they should choose a national director with absolute power.
This is not the first time a suggestion has been made to have a national collegiate czar. Our own Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen long has favored this plan, and many other outstanding sports figures approve it.
隶 隶 隶
But Iba's suggestion brings up another point. Should there be a uniform scholarship plan? This idea has been argued for years, but no one has been able to convince a majority that there should be.
Boris:
The main argument has been that this would make college athletes professionals, and players wouldn't be interested in going to school to learn but only to participate in sports.
sports. This argument doesn't hold up because many schools openly admit that they pay their athletes. So if an athlete only wanted to participate in sports, he could attend one of these schools. It's true that some athletes don't care about a college education except as a means of getting to play football or basketball, but this isn't often the case.
Several conferences have athletic scholarship programs which seem to work well. Many other conferences don't come out in the open on the subject, but some other schools in those leagues pay their athletes and get away with it.
It seems to me that it would be fairer to all schools to have a standard program such as Iba has suggested. Then there would be no "bidding" for athletes, and the entire athletic situation would improve.
Tennis Team Wins Over Washburn, 5-1
The K.U. tennis team won it first victory in nine years over Washburn University yesterday in Topeka, taking the match 5-1. The last time the Jayhawkers defeated the usually-strong Washburn netters was in 1937, when K.U. took the Big Six championship.
Only Bob Barnes, smooth-stroking number two Jayhawker, lost his match. He and Bob Taggart of Washburn tangled in a two-hour see-saw battle, and Barnes once held match point, but erred.
Roy Shoaf, Topeka junior, beat his former doubles partner, Carl Lozy, in the number one match, 6-4, 6-3. Shoaf and Charles Snyder, Business senior, teamed to win an easy first doubles match from Lozy and Ned McCue, 6-4, 6-1.
Other results saw Charles Carson defeating Les Hasselgott, 6-3, 6-4. Eldon Froid beating Don Silver, 6-2, 6-1 and Carson-Barnes teaming to whip Taggart-Hasselt, former high school doubles champions, 7-5, 6-3.

Hunter Honored By Cage Lettermen
Hunter, who was killed July 21, 1944, on the first American landing on Guam with the marines, was paid tribute by 17 Kansas lettermen. He lettered in 1940, 1941, and 1942, was graduated in June, 1942.
The idea of honoring Hunter came from Charlie Black, the All-American forward, because there wasn't a senior on this year's squad.
"I have never seen a finer gesture of love and friendship among men," Dr. F. C. Allen said after the squad decided to honor Hunter.
Letters were awarded to Black, Otto Schnellbacher, Ray Evans, Owen Peck, Gib Stramel, Wendell Clark, Jack Ballard, Gene Barr, Fay Frisby, Gene Peterson, Hoyt Baker, George Gear, Don Auten, Gene Anderson, Gus Daum, Maurice Martin, and Dean Corder.
Phi Psi's Champions In Men's Volleyball
Intramural volleyball championship went the Phi Kappa PSI team last night in the final game at Robinson gym. The Phi PSI team defeated Sigma Chi 17-15, 15-6 in two straight games.
The first match was closely played with both teams never having over a four point advantage at any time during the game. The Phi Psi's were able to hold a slight advantage until the last when the Sigma Chi team tied the score at 15 all. The duce game went to the Phi Psi's when they scored two straight points to take the first game.
Having a one game advantage, the Phi Psi team was able to easily take the second match 15-6. They gained an early lead and were never seriously pressed during the remainder of the game.

Black Named All-American Again
Charlie Black, one of Kansas' all-time basketball greats and three time All-Big Six forward, has been notified that he has been selected on the Helms Athletic foundation's 1946 All-America basketball team.
Black first received All-American honors in 1942, as a sophomore. He won the Big Six individual scoring championship this year and missed setting a new record by only three points. "The Hawk" was the big gun in the Jayhawker attack and was chiefly responsible for Kansas' ranking as one of the nation's top teams. He led the Jayhawkers to an undefeated Big Six title and a total of 19 victories in 21 games.
Chosen with Black on the 10-man squad were Bob Kurland, Oklahoma A. and M.; George Mikan, DePaul; Max Morris, Northwestern; Leo Klier, Notre Dame; Tony Lavelle, Yale; Norte Dame; Tony Lavelle, Yale; Sid Tannenbaum, New York university; Jack Parkinson, Kentucky; Paul Huston, Ohio State; and Jim Jordan, North Carolina.

News . . . of the World
World's Fair Grounds New UN Site
New York. (UP)—Mayer William O'Dwyer offered to UN Secretary-General Tylgve Lie the Municipal building at the World's Fair grounds for use of the United Nations general assembly which will meet Sept. 1. The offer was accepted by Lie.
Washington. (UP)—Maj. Gen. G.
B. Erskine said today that one reason veterans often have to pay $75 for a suit is that too much material is going into the production of women's clothing.
His goal is to get each veteran two suits for $75—one for work and one for dress.
Tokyo. (UP)—The Communist party showed unexpected strength today in early returns from the Japanese national election, but the darkhorse Social Democrats and the powerful conservative-minded Progressive and Liberal parties led by large margins.
Reds Refuse Demands In Balkan Treaties
London. (UP)—Russian refusal of three Anglo-American demands has deadlocked consideration of Balkan peace treaties by the Big Three foreign ministers' deputies in London.
Soviet-proposed drafts of treaties with Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary fail to include provisions for equality of access to the Balkans for trade and economic relations, freedom of access to the Danube and limitation of the size of future armed forces of these countries.
Washington (UP)—President Truman today presented the 1945 Collier's award for distinguished congressional service to Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg; and Rep. A. S. Mike Monroney.
(By United Press)
The labor department moved today to restore negotiations in the coal dispute, which accounts for nearly one-half of the nation's 653,000 strike tilted workers.
Secretary of Labor Lewis B. Schwellenbach arranged separate meetings with officials of the AFL, United Mine Workers union, and soft coal operators.
Gromyko Will Devote Full Time to UN
New York. (UP)—Russia's action in relieving Andrei A. Gromyko from his ambassador duties to give full time to the United Nations Security council was regarded today as further proof of the importance the Soviet attaches to the work of the UN.
Gromyko has been replaced as ambassador to the United States by Nikolai V. Novikov.
Shanghai. (UP)—Chinese messengers for American and British news services agreed to end their strike today after the Bureau of Social Affairs ordered their salaries raised to $65,000 a week—$35 in American money.
Washington (UP)—The Pearl Harbor committee received testimony today that the United States was trying to arrange with Japan for save evacuation of marines and civilians from north China up to an hour before the sneak attack on Hawaii.
Chungking. (UP) — Government quarters charged today that "tenes of thousands" of Communist troops are streaming into Manchuria and efforts to break the National-Community deadlock over Manchuria again has failed.
U.S. Supports Polish Demand
New York. (UP) — The United States will support Poland's request for full United Nations Security council discussion of the Spanish question, which is coupled now with Nazi atomic and rocket scientists working in Spain, official sources revealed today.
However, it probably will continue to oppose any council action against Generalissimo Francisco Franco unless Poland produces some air-tight evidence of Franco's sponsorship of Nazi atomic and war weapon research.
Injection of the atomic issue into the Franco Spain problem appeared to ease the earlier Anglo-American rigid opposition to council discussion of Spain.
Poland seems assured of getting her case against Spain on the council's agenda, as it takes only seven votes of the 11-member council to do so. But for council action afterward, the seven votes must include each of the Big Five.
Poland dropped the atomic bomb issue into the council's lap unpeeled and without warning late yesterday, and the State department substantiated in part some of the Polish charges.
American official sources said Secretary of State James F. Byrnes had instructed Edward R. Stettinius, American delegate, to support to the hilt Poland's request to discuss the Spanish situation and to present her evidence to the council.
Although the United States is opposed to Security Council action against France Spain, it also has become the chief advocate in the council of letting any United Nation present to the council any situation which it thinks threatens world peace.
Meanwhile, council delegates settled down to what they hoped would be a quiet four-day recess. No major meetings are scheduled for today. Tomorrow the delegates will attend the memorial services at Hyde Park, N.Y., on the first anniversary of Franklin D. Roosevelt's death.
K.U. To Buy Surplus Airplanes For Use in Flying Instruction
The University plans to purchase six to eight army and navy surplus airplanes through the Reconstruction Finance corporation, to be used in flying instruction, Prof. William M. Simpson, of the aeronautical engineering department, has announced.
The University will purchase a 100-by-40-foot steel building for use as a hangar. The Lawrence city council has given the city engineer authority to approve the University's request that the hangar be placed at the Municipal airport northeast of the present airport building.
'F.D.R. Still Lives'
The building is ordered and will be erected as soon as the building and grounds department constructs the cement floor, Professor Simpson said.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, America's longest - termed president, died a year ago tomorrow, but his precepts and principles live on, Daily Kansan Editor-in-Chief LeMoyne Frederick points out on Page 2.
Navy 'Coach' Also Is From 'Husker State
Capt. John V. Peterson, U.S.N., new commanding officer of the N.R.O.T.C. and V-12 program, thinks that his new duties will be "interesting and along the same lines of training I've been engaged in for the last 20 years."
Captain Peterson received his bachelor of science degree from the United States naval academy at Annapolis, Md. He also attended Nebraska university and is a graduate of the primary flight and advanced aviation school at Pensacola, Fla. In 1918 he decided to make the navy his career because of the opportunity to get into aviation.
His last command was the U.S.S. Santee, an aircraft carrier, which was engaged in the Okinawa campaign. From 1941 to 1943 he was in command of patrol wing 10 which was engaged in the Philippines, Java, and Australian campaigns. Capt. Peterson has taught flying, advanced aviation and ship naval tactics.
"I have a wife and a 14-year-old daughter in California who will join me in June. I'm having the usual trouble getting suitable accommodations for my family," he said.
Capt. Peterson holds the legion of merit, distinguished flying cross, distinguished service cross awarded by the Netherlands, presidential unit citation, U.S. army unit citation and campaign ribbons for World War I and II.
"I am especially interested in athletics and I hope we beat Nebraska next year in football," Capt. Peterson smiled.
Any University Student Is Eligible To Win $2,500 White Literary Award
Friday Is Fee Deadline
Friday is the last day for enrollee in the nine-week term to pay their fees, according to Karl Klooz, bur-sar. Veterans must have their fee cards stamped at the business office not later than Friday. A 50c fine will be charged the next three days, after which enrollments may be canceled.
'Beer' Law Partially Lifted
University students may have both beer and dancing in the same establishment—although not simultaneously — county commissioners decided Wednesday.
The decision, which eases the previous restriction against beer and dancing licenses to the same establishment, came after the county leaders had numerous meetings with K.U. and city groups, among them the Jayhawk Veterans club.
The amendment passed by the board of county commissioners yesterdy allows dancing in establishments serving beer between 8:30 p.m. and midnight, but also provides that no beer shall be sold on those nights between 7:30 p.m. and midnight.
Roy Borgen, Dine-a-Mite owner said that unless present OPA regulations are changed, he will have to sell beer in preference.
"All my profits come from the sale of food and beverages, since I make no charge for dancing, and unless the OPA will let me assess a slight cover charge for dancing, I won't be able to go along with the amendment," he explained.
The Golden Arrow, on Route 5, will continue to sell beer but, according to the manager, "some arrangement may be worked out so that dancing will be allowed three evenings a week."
The present Country club policy is not much affected by the amendment. At many of its dances before the prohibitive regulation, the manager said that "no beer was sold."
The only change in policy to conform with the amendment will be to extend the "no beer" idea to all dances. Beer will continue to be sold during the hours when no dancing is held.
Atomic Conference Tonight
Members of the University's Atomic Age group will attend the Lawrence Atomic energy conference at 7:30 tonight at the Plymouth Congregational church, 925 Vermont street. All students may attend.
Eileen O'Connor, Miss Florence Black Chosen Queens
The Hill Is Lighter—10 Tons of Dandelions Are Gone
Eileen O'Connor, Kappa Alpha Theta, and Miss Florence Black, mathematics professor, shared the spotlight as dandelion queens yesterday, after the digging had stopped at 6 p.m. and 2,369 bushels had been tabulated.

Raymond H. Wheeler, professor of psychology, received the degree of "Doctor of Dandelion Day," wearing a mortar board with a dandelion tassel.
The coronation was rushed through at 7 p.m., when the first drops of the rain, which had threatened throughout the day, began. Charles Wright, founder of Dandelion in 1941, crowned Miss O'Connor, who had polled more than
300 votes, with a dandelion cornet. Attendants were Joan Larson, Chi Omega; Emily Hollis, Corbin hall; Rosemary Gaines, Gamma Phi Beta; and Sarah Smart, Kappa Kappa Gamma.
Kapp. the rain increased, students danced for a few minutes in the street in front of Bailey chemical laboratory, for the benefit of Mark Kauffman, Life photographer, then went home for umbrellas.
went home for dinner.
Mr. Kaufman said his pictures were for a feature, "Spring Hits the Campus," to be in next week's issue, for which pictures are being taken all over the country.
The Y.W.C.A. food booth, forced by the rain to close early, after served only about 750 of the
expected 2,000 with hot dogs, potato chips, baked beans, cokes, and ice cream bars, wrote off its loss as "a service to the University." Some of the surplus food was bought by the navy and Mortar Board, and more was sold in organized houses later last night.
Today, buildings and grounds workers had the task of removing the 10-ton stack of wilted weeds from Fowler grove, repairing the turf uprooted by over-zealous diggers.
University officials estimate that the students had saved them about $1.400 in dandelion digging expense in return for the 90 minutes of work lost by dismissing classes at 4 p.m.
Details of competition for an annual literary award of $2,500, second largest award given to one school in the nation and which will be known as the William Allen White Award in Creative Writing, were announced today by the William Allen White School of Journalism in cooperation with the publishing firm of G. P. Putnam's Sons.
"This is an award of major importance being exceeded only by the Hopson literary awards at the University of Michigan," Dean J. H. Nelson, chairman of the English department, said today. "Its value for this campus can be seen when one realizes that competition is to be limited to students enrolled here."
The award will be offered beginning in 1946-47, and the first winner will be named at commencement in June. 1947.
Any University student, including graduates and junior faculty members taking work toward advanced degrees, will be eligible.
Freshmen and sophomores enrolled in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences are expected to see their advisors either Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, Dean Paul B. Lawson announced today.
The types of writing which may be offered are a novel, a volume of short stories, a full length play or volume of short plays, a book of essays, a biography, a collection of poems or a cultural or interpretative study of contemporary society.
If no manuscript of sufficient distinction is submitted during any year the award will be withheld.
The winner of the award will receive $1,000 from G. P. Putnam's sons as a gift and $1,500 will be an advance against royalties on the work when published. The company will have the right tq negotiate for publication of any manuscript submitted.
Manuscripts must be submitted to the dean of the School of Journalism six weeks before commencement of any year and he will be the cx-officio chairman of a committee to do preliminary reading and to aid the selection committee.
The selection committee is made up of Chancellor Deane W. Malott; Frederick Babcock of the Chicago Tribune; and Kenneth L. Rawson, head of the editorial department of G.P. Putnam's Sons.

F.D.R. Still Lives
It was 5:49 p.m., Thursday, April 12, 1945. The scene was the Columbia Broadcasting system studios in New York. John Daly was speaking, "We interrupt this program to bring you a special news bulletin from C.B.S. world news. A press association has just announced that President Roosevelt is dead."
Even those who differed with him on lesser matters could not take issue with his fundamental ideals and aims. His greatness as a leader and his devotion to high principles was beyond question. His own words tell best his philosophy for a peaceful, secure, and democratic world:
With that terse announcement the world first learned of the president's death.
"Today we seek a moral basis for peace. It cannot be a real peace if it fails to recognize brotherhood. It cannot be a lasting peace if the fruit of it is oppression, or starvation, or human life dominated by armed camps. It cannot be a sound peace if small nations must live in fear of powerful neighbors. It cannot be a moral peace if freedom from invasion is sold for tribute. It cannot be an intelligent peace if it denies free passage to that knowledge of those ideals which permit men to find common ground. It cannot be a righteous peace if worship of God is denied."—Radio address, March 16, 1940.
One year has passed. Military victory has been achieved and the United Nations has been organized, two aims that occupied Roosevelt's uniting efforts during the latter years of his life.
"And I say that we must wage it in association with the United Nations with whom we have stood and fought—with that association ever growing."—Address in Boston, Nov. 4, 1944.
"Today as we go forward toward the greatest contribution that any generation of human beings can make in this world, the contribution of lasting peace, I ask you to keep up your faith. I measure the sound, solid achievement that can be made at this time by the straight edge of your own confidence and your resolve. And to you, I say. The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today. Let us move forward with strong and active faith." (These words were written the day before his death for a speech he was to deliver April 13.)
"I say we must wage the coming battle for America and for civilization on a scale worthy of the way we unitedly waged the battles against tyranny and reaction, and wage it through all the difficulties and the disappointments that may ever clog the wheels of progress.
Only the passing of time will show his real place among the leaders of history. But it is doubtful whether any other man in modern times has had the world-wide respect that was Roosevelt's.
It is altogether proper that we look in retrospect at the principles and ideals professed by Franklin Roosevelt. Not only because tomorrow is the anniversary of his death, but because those principles did not die with Roosevelt. Our devotion to these ideals must carry them on.
The world is beset with doubt and apprehension. The future of freedom is not yet secure. If we were to choose one of Franklin Roosevelt's precepts as a guide for the tasks ahead, we could pick no better than the one he voiced upon assuming the presidency, "The only thing we need to fear, is fear itself."

Eager beavers—Gamma Phi freshmen should be given a medal of some sort for meritorious service above and beyond the call of duty. Saturday night they were all confined on a blanket campus, each assigned to a definite cleaning task. After going over the house with a fine tooth comb, Beverly Fox, Barbara Byrd, and Marion Sheldon spotted a bit of dirt in the hall about 3 a.m. and ran the sweeper down said hall into the senior dorm. No, the actives weren't the least impressed.
Long hairs—Ray Hartlev and Evan Stevens, psychology lab instructors, have a perverted sense of humor, so their pupils think. During a musical aptitude test, they gave instructions to listen carefully to the last selection, for the next class assignment would be an essay on the asthetic qualities, balance, sensitiveness of phrases, and structure of the number. The selection?—a late boogie woogie, "Hey Bob, a Lee Bob."
Two's a crowd—The Chi O'is are learning by practical experience about soothing diplomatic relations. They graciously invited the Sigma Nu's for a dinner engagement Monday night. Everyone was having a lovely time until the Fiji's appeared at the door during dinner with several invitations for their Sea Island party Saturday night. As a little boy, clad only in a grass skirt, called the names, each coed had to excuse herself from a Sigma Nu to receive the invitation. The Chi O'is are still trying to smooth out the matter.

D-Day Prompts Vets To Protest Coeds in Jeans
Nine campus veterans, whose dislike for University women to wear jeans, was kindled into a desire to do something about it by the sight of so many out on Dandelion Day, staged an anti-jeans demonstration in a campus cafe last night.
Thomas Baird, College freshman,
in a purple dress, topped with a
feminine straw hat tied with a pink
ribbon under his chin and escorted
by his other protesting friends
invaded the cafe and swaggered
through the aisles of booths displaying
an anti-jeans sign on his back
"All I saw in the navy for four years were jeans," Baird said. "I expected to come to school and see dresses, but not jeans."
"Think of all the poor lumber-jacks, carpenters, and plumbers the girls are putting out of work," Thomas Jordan, College freshman, said.
"All of these jeans should be bundled up and sent to Washington for redistribution so these men can get back to work."
Other members of the distressed tribe, all residents of 1329 Ohio street, were Victor Teyenck, Engineering freshman, Herbert Hill, College freshman, Frank Miller, Fine Arts freshman; Gerald McGrew, Engineering junior; R. L. Graves, Engineering sophomore; Walter Hoffman, College freshman; and William Casto, Engineering freshman.
The veterans had all planned on going to the street dance last night dressed like Baird, Jordan said, but its cancellation spoiled their plans, and the protest was subdued.

Charlie Black may become the first three-time All-American in Jayhawker history. "The Hawk" was named to the Sporting News All-American in 1942, and he was named to three All-American teams this year, by the Sporting News, True magazine, and the Helms Athletic foundation.
Black has another year of eligibility and has indicated that he plans to return next year. He will lead one of the best group of players ever to den Kansas colors at the same time.
Besides big Charlie, there will be Ray Evans, Otto Schnellbacher, Owen Peck, Wendell Clark, and the rest of this year's lettermen who will carry K.U.'s hopes of another Big Six championship. George Gear may be called to the army this summer, but Gib Stramel may return from navy duty. The addition of Stranel would give the Jayhawkers one of the strongest point making combines in the country.
Sidelights—K.U. tennis prospects are looking up as a result of the decisive victory over the Washburn crew. A benefit football intrasquad game was played recently by the University of Alabama for one of its former stars, Charley Boswell, who was blinded by a German shell during the war. It will net him over $29,000. The major league baseball nets start Tuesday, and starting pitching assignments are being announced. . . Wayne Replogle, end coach, is a forester during summer months. I wonder whether spotting firestores sharpens his eyes so that he can do such a swell job of scouting enemy football teams in the fall.

Spain Demands Proof Of Polish UN Charges
Madrid. (UP)—Official Spanish circles challenged Polish Ambassador Oscar Lange today to prove his UN charges, which they called absurd, that German scientists are working in Spain on new forms of warfare.
An autoritative source said that Spain will refuse to recognize the legality of any measure the UN may take against the Franco regime.
Atom Scientists Renew World-Control Plea
Washington. (UP)—The car-hungry public was told today that OPA ceiling prices on four 1946 model General Motors automobiles would range from $66 to $417 higher than in 1942.
Washington. (UP)The men who made the atom bomb today renewed demands for world control of their dread brain-child.
"Irreplacable time is ticking away" and the world is threatened with a perpetual war of nerves, they declared.
The scientists said other nations could develop the bomb in three to eight years and warned that an unrestrained arms race would lead undoubtedly to an atomic war of unpredictable destruction.
Washington. (UP)—The government relaxed its restrictive emergency housing order today to permit many groups of non-verans to construct new homes or other essential building.
The Civilian Production administration and the National Housing agency said priorities assistance would be granted to servicemen, veterans' widows, farmers, and other special groups.
Washington. (UP)—President Truman said today that he has been assured that the scheduled target dates will be met in the Bikini atom bomb tests, which he characterized as "of vital importance" to the national defense.
(By United Press)
Efforts to reopen negotiations in the soft coal strike failed today, and new labor troubles were brewing for the nation's railroads as a spokesman for 1,200,000 members of non-operating railroad brothers said the unions are preparing to serve new demands for a wage increase.
Communists Attack Manchurian Railroad
Chungking. (UP)—Nationalist reports said today that Chinese Communists have thrown 30,000 troops into attacks against the Peiping-Mukden railroad as part of a synchronized campaign against Manchurian rail communications.
Reykjavik, Iceland. (UP) — A Communist campaign to get the approximately 1,000 remaining American troops out of Iceland today failed to draw from the Icelandic government any indication whether it intends to grant the United States post bases.
Tokyo. (UP)—Allied sources indicated satisfaction today with the first free election in Japan's history as official and semi-official tabulations of 30,000,000 votes continued to roll up a sizeable majority for four conservative parties.
Washington. (UP)—The State department has made it clear that it "has no information" that German-owned factories in Spain are engaged in atomic research.
Little Man On Campus

"You're right. Meg. he was a fresh man."
F.D.R. Home 'Given' To U.S.
Hyde Park, N.Y. (UP)—Leaders of the nation joined the country folk of Dutchess county today in tribute to the memory of Franklin D. Roosevelt.
One year ago today, "the boss" died in a little cottage at Warm Springs, Ga., where he had gone in an effort to throw off a haunting weariness.
This afternoon, on the porch of the late president's graceful home high on the banks of the Hudson, President Truman pledged his administration to a continuing fight for the foreign and domestic policies of his predecessor.
Donald Ivan Kane, Fine Arts sophomore, has won a $15 award for his design of a bookplate for the Danforth Chapel hymnals.
The Missourian who was projected into the nation's highest office a year ago, endorsed its entirety his former chieftain's program.
"In the aftermath of a global war, the overall task is difficult. But it can be simply stated: it is to carry forward the underlying principles and policies, foreign and domestic, of Franklin D. Roosevelt."
The formalities today consisted of turning over the late president's home to the government. The sprawling house where he lived as a boy now becomes the property of the Interior department.
Junior and senior classes in commercial art submitted designs to the contest. The hymns for the chapel have already been ordered, according to Marjorie Whitney, design department. Kane held the rating of AEM 2/c while in the navy.
The radio hook-up today was one of the most elaborate in broadcasting history. The ceremonies will be around the world in 23 languages.
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, widow of the late president, conveyed the ancestral estate of the Roosevelts to the national government, and Secretary of Interior J. A. Krug formally accepted it.
Fine Arts Sophomore Wins
Danforth Bookplate Award
It will be a national historic site open to the public.
Student-Faculty Meet Tomorrow
"Education for Responsible Living in an Age fo Crisis" is the topic of discussion for the second student-faculty solidarity conference sponsored by Mortar Board and Sachem at the Lawrence Country club to-morrow.
The purpose of the meeting, sponsors explained, is to examine the purposes of liberal education, to measure the degree to which K.U. is achieving these ends, and to chart the steps which lie ahead in developing a more mature, responsible college community.
Chancellor Deane W. Malott, 17 faculty members, and 58 students attending the conference will meet at 8 a.m. in the rotunda of Frank Strong hall to go to the Country club.
Marjorie Free, chairman of the committee on counseling, will speak on "The Counselling System." "Campus Governing Bodies" will be discussed by Mary Wisner, and Rosalie Erwin will discuss "Curriculum Changes."
The program for the day will include speeches by Wendell Nickell on "Obtectives of a Liberal Education," and Hildreth Stong, on "Activities."
James Case was elected president of the Snow Zoology club at it initiation dinner held last night.
James Case to Head Snow Zoology Club
Other officers chosen were Mary Maxine Smyth, vice president; Marilyn Nigg, secretary; and Arthur Chapman, treasurer. The retiring president is Muriel Stember.
An evaluation of the conference will complete the university.
New initiates of the club are Arthur Chapman, Helen Jones, Helen Lucas, John Mansfield, Joao Mooijin, Anna Lee Murphy, Marilyn Nigg, Owen Peck, Betty Ann Sandwell, O. Dale Smith David Stockwell, Jane Wegert, Benjamin Weybraw, and Ruth Williams.
Louis Kuitert spoke on malaria control along the Leio road using illustrative slides of the raad.
Malott Slaps Congress For Mixup In Student Housing
Chicago. (UP)—Deane W. Malott, chancellor of the University of Kansas, said today that congress has made available "nearly free" education for more than 10 million returning veterans with no conception of the resultant strain on college facilities and no adequate means of aid.
Urey To Speak Here Monday
Dr. Harold C. Urey, atomic scientist from the University of Chicago, will speak at an all-University convocation at 10 a.m. Monday, in Hoch auditorium, on "Atomic Energy: Master or Servant." The convocation will be sponsored by the Forums board.
Monday morning's schedule is as follows:
8:30 classes 8:30-9:05
9:30 classes 9:15-9:50
Convocation 10:00-10:50
10:30 classes 11:00-11:35
11:30 classes 11:45-12:20
Dr. Urey was awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1934 for his discovery of heavy hydrogen. He became a member of the Uranium committee in June, 1940, and from that time directed the work on the separation of U-235 by the centrifugal and gaseous diffusion method at Columbia university. He is now in the research institute at the University of Chicago.
"We had no idea what Harold was working on during the war," Miss Daum said, "but we did know that it was something to end all wars."
Dr. Urey will arrive in Lawren Saturday night, according to Miss Bessie Daum. 18, his sister-in-law, assistant librarian in the Lawrence public library. Dr. Urey and Frieda Daum were married here in Miss Bessie Daum's home, 1801 Mississippi street, in 1926.

Engine Seniors Interviewed
By Aircraft Representative
Frank Coe, engineering personnel manager of an aircraft company in Stratford. Conn., interviewed graduating seniors in aeronautical, civil, electrical, and mechanical engineering yesterday.
Mr. Coe stated that the shortage of aeronautical engineers is greater than before the end of the war. He said that it will be at least six years before the supply of engineers is able to take care of the large demand.
Lilyan Warner New President Of Physiotherapy Group
Miss Lilyan Warner, physical therapist at Watkins hospital and instructor of physical therapy of the School of Medicine, has been elected president of the newly organized Kansas chapter of the American Physiotherapy association.
Miss Warner came to the University January 1, after spending three and one-half years in the Physical Therapy corps of the army, two years of which were spent in overseas duty.
5,400 Feet of Pipes For Sunnyside Unit
The 5,400 feet of pipes which are lying on the slope south of the campus are part of the preliminary work being done on the new Sunnside unit, which will house 900 students next fall.
The largest of the structures, Mr. Beal said, will be a six-family unit, 100 feet long and almost 26 feet wide, with two bedrooms and front and rear porches.
Addressing a national conference on the education of veterans in colleges and universities sponsored by the National Education association, Malotl said that instead of attacking the problem with the same energy and resources that created war plants, "the national housing activities merely have pecked at the problem.
"Most educational institutions report record-breaking enrollments, the tide of applications still rises, and there is discussion that the educational facilities will break down, that the G.I. bill was fabricated by educators, and now they can't handle the job. Some Washington politicians are thus running for cover, at the gargantua which, in their generosity and gratitude to 10 million or so soldiers, they created with little help or advice from the educational institutions."
He praised education for meeting the emergency by providing credit for military service, short courses, refreshers, and in general, by doing all that could be done in the face of an "enormous" amount of "red-tape" and a "disheartening conflict of authorities."
"If the whole story could be told of the activities, imagination, and ingenuity of the colleges and universities, it would be an epic of history in the life of our nation," he declared.
Malott said that the University of Kansas is spending nearly $200,000 this year in emergency housing, and eating facilities—housing under the Stadium, in one whole floor of the art museum, and parts of "an already crowded gymnasium."
"In the last analysis, housing would appear to be the limiting factor," he revealed, "housing for students—both veterans and others, housing for faculty, and in some instances housing for educational and training facilities. There is no overall attack on the problem. A central core of understanding and interest is required."
"Wartime housing is being sliced up like a jelly roll and moved to campuses, again as a token of help, if the university installs the utilities and grades the land—engaging in expenditures of educational funds to the extent of many thousands of dollars."
Malott said the problem must be attacked "with promptness and vigor." He recommended first an over-all factual appraisal of the nature and extent of the problem, leading to a tabulation of the service personnel to be released by next September, the number wanting further education and the schools they want to attend.
"One way or another we have extended our facilities to care for 800 married students, and more than 1200 single men and women. And still the applications come in from five to 25 a day," he declared.
'Big Name' Band For K-Club Dance
A "big-name" band will play for the K-Club Varsity, May 11, Harold Hunter, Varsity dance manager, announced today.
Bands being considered are those of Jimmie Lunceford, Boyd Raeburn, and Horace Heidt under the direction of "Shorty" Sherock, Hunter said.
"We expect to have one of these bands signed by sometime next week," Hunter added.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Student Newsaper of the UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
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.
Mail subscription: $2 a semester, $4.50 a year, plus 2% tax (in Lawrence add $1 a semester postage). Published in Lawrence, Kan., every afternoon during the six year except September 17, 1916, at the Post Office at Lawrence, Kan under act of March 3, 1879.
The University has just concluded a noteworthy project for the people of Kausas, the sponsoring of atomic energy conferences throughout the state.
That program, given in eight Kansas towns, should prove effective in making the people of Kansas more aware of the momentous implications of the atomic bomb.
The A-Bomb And Kansas
The brain-child of Hilden Gibson, associate professor of political science, this project was the first state-wide project of this nature in the country.
Four scientists closely connected with the development of atomic energy and 14 University faculty members took part in the program. It was so organized that the subjects were comprehensively covered and reduced to simple terms, understandable by all.
reduced to simple terms.
Much has been said and written of atomic bombs since the devastation of Hiroshima on August 6. But the real value of this program was its intensive treatment of the subject.
Being an all-day meeting, with sessions that totalled six hours in length, it was a contrast to the fleeting connection most laymen have had with atomic energy information. Atomic bomb news may occupy a few minutes of a radio news broadcast; it may take a few moments of our time before we turn to the sports section of our newspaper; or we may spend slightly longer reading a magazine article on the subject, but in any event, our attention is quickly diverted. In these sessions the urgency of coping quickly with this scientific Frankenstein was hammered home in sessions long enough to have a real effect.
At the close of the Topeka meeting 260 persons unanimously approved a resolution embodying the following recommendations:
1. Support of the state department's recent Acheson Report recom- ment of the control of atomic energy under the U.N.
2. Support of the McMahon bill, for national control of atomic energy.
3. Rejection of the May-Johnson atomic energy control bill.
4. Complete support of the U.N.
5. That each person present inform the congressmen of Kansas of these opinions.
6. Organization of community groups to stimulate interest and study of atomic energy and its implications.
Similar resalutions were adopted at the other seven conferences.
The mid-west has often been described as complacent. But sitting through the conference at Topeka with a cross-section group of housewives, businessmen, teachers, and farmers, one was aware of their keen interest.
It remains to be seen if the people of Kansas will utilize this worthy project for further enlightenment. If they do, it will have been time and effort well spent.
If the federal justice department has its way, the phrase "Hey bud, how about a light?" may drop from existence. It is trying to break up the international match cartel that has controlled the match industry for years, preventing such improvements as a patented match that can be lit as many as a thousand times.
Hawks and Sparrows
"The educational system of America is failing the youth of America. . . It is fashioning sparrows and pushing them out to compete with hawks. . . Why on earth should we be taught . . . this foolishness about honesty, truth and fair play?
"If a student is majoring in law, he should be taught not only the laws but the most approved methods of finding loopholes. . . If he is to be a doctor, he should not only learn medicine but how to milk the largest fees. . . If an engineer, how to construct with the cheapest of materials. . . If a journalist, how to slant, alter, and lie. . . In the securities field, the different methods of watering stocks and duping the suckers.
"Let us get up petitions to remove these professors stumbling on their White Horse Truth, and get some good hardheaded businessmen in our colleges to teach us what we have to know to become a success."
The above quotation is from the Daily Bruin, student newspaper of the University of California. The opinions are those of Jay Douglas Haley, a veteran on that campus, as reprinted in Time magazine.
Our first reaction to the above is a cynical agreement. There is ample evidence to support that opinion. But the important question is whether the type of society he has depicted is either necessary or desirable. Few will argue that it is either.
Therefore the issue becomes whether we are to succumb to the anti-social practices of the unserrupulous or whether we are to remain faithful to higher ideals and thereby make those principles the rule rather than the exception.
There is today an unparalleled opportunity to do the latter. The nation's colleges and universities are bulging with record enrollments. Those millions, soon to take their places in society, can inject into our social structure new life devoted to truth, honesty, and respect for their fellow men.
The ancient Confucius phrased it this way about 24 hundred years ago and the principles still apply: "The superior man understands what is right; the inferior man understands what will sell. The superior man loves his soul; the inferior man loves his property."

No Quiz File
On First Job—Yost
To the Daily Kansan: Again the perennial question of a communal quiz file has arisen. This is the proper time for it; the suggestion is usually made in the somewhat panicky period of orientation to new courses, just after the first quizzes. Especially is one apt to have a feeling of loss after being out of school for several years. I know.
It is my opinion that the good students (I'm keeping this impersonal, you notice) use quiz files very little.
The use of files seems to be in inverse proportion to the ability of the student. The student whose grades are low probably does not need a quiz file so much as he needs to learn to study.
Why are we attending K.U.? Fundamental to most of us is the desire for an "education." We are not seeking to acquire a huge mass of facts so much as we are seeking certain mental attitudes and habits.
Since most classes at K.U. are large, individual help from instructors is usually out of the question. What we learn must be obtained mostly from our own reading and thinking. It is mainly by a process of intelligent reading that we acquire the ability to think. By intelligent reading I mean arguing with the book, asking questions, reciting silently.
These cannot be obtained from a quiz file, but only by hard work in conjunction with a full realization of what we are striving to obtain. I am sure that there is no shortage to the true goal of education—learning to think.
Quiz files tend to discourage a questioning attitude and self-reliance.
The fact does remain that there are courses in which a good quiz file would simplify obtaining grades. It seems quite likely, however, that the professor who can be successfully "quiz-filed" is not doing a good job of teaching. He has become stereotyped to the extent that he is predictable.
As to grades, I feel that the use of a quiz file will influence the grade-point average very little. The actual derived is more fancied than real.
It is entirely conceivable that over a period of four years continued
reliance on a quiz file would be detrimental to the grade-point average. Certainly it would be detrimental to the acquisition of the mental habits we will need greatly after graduation. There will be no quiz file on our first job.

Campus U.N. Conference Open To All Students—Tribble
To the Daily Kansan: The editorial in your issue of Thursday, March 28 (Studies v. Education) was excellent. The writer is right when he out points that it's important to get an "education" at the same time one is doing his studies.
in that connection there is to be an all-day, all-student conference on the U.N. Saturday, May 18. The United Nations urgently needs the support of intelligent people.
One of the chief hurdles for that embryo organization is the Russian enigma. The basic cause of difficulties in dealing with Russia is skepticism born of ignorance. The primary fact is that we must find a way of cooperating with the Russians.
The skepticism that hampers us has a long history. Since 1917, when the Allies took an expeditionary force into Russia and fought with the Whites against the Reds, Russia has been suspicious of other nations and other nations have had little to do with Russia. Russia felt that whatever she was to accomplish she must do herself. This long habit of living in forced isolation apparently carries over to the present day.
And there is skepticism on our part too, due to the tremendous accumulation of ignorance between us and our lack of understanding of what Russia really wants. Ignorance breeds fear and fear breeds hate.
To help allay this skepticism, at least among University students, basic facts will be presented at the campus U.N. conference. It is the purpose of this conference to make those facts easy to understand and easily available. Every effort will be made to present the fundamental facts of recent history which explain clearly, simply, and forcefully the actions of the nations in the U.N. No effort will be spared to get authoritative information.
This is to be an all-student conference and any student may help

Fuzzy Psychology. The psychology department is at it again. This time all the male members of the department are growing mustaches. The movement was started by Evan Stevens, lab instructor, and was quickly taken up by George Yeckel, Edward Swain, and Dr. R. H. Wheeler. In defense of his courageous but not very successful attempt, Swain remarked, "It's a typical cold rat reaction." Dr. Wheeler just laughed and said, "That's a joke — Swain growing a mustache, that is."

Let's put the University in the national spotlight by holding the first successful U.N. campus conference.

So Solly, No Kissy Missy-Then The Americans Arrived in Japan
Gen. Douglas MacArthur was responsible for the whole thing.

He suggested to the Japanese motion picture industry that kissing scenes in movies would be a step toward democratization.
Vi's Gift Shop HOTEL ELDRIDGE
Big shots at the Shochiku studio thought the general had something there. They had their writers turn out the script—"Diary of a Bridegroom's Troubles." Everybody was happy but Miss Mimura, who said she would break her contract and quit the business.
She was not joking. A clinch before the cameras definitely was not her idea of acting—and she is Japan's leading movie actress.
Director Tada Tanaka was upset. Shinichi Himiori, the leading man, was upset. But Miss Mimura was in a state bordering nervous collapse.
"Hoberechtans," she said, "I am worried. I like being an actress. I like my job and I do not want to quit it. But Japanese movies never had kissing before and I cannot go through with it."
Thirty minutes later—with the aid of two dictonaries to eliminate any possible misunderstanding—she had convinced me that she had lived 25
"Not only have I never been kissed in front of a camera," she said, "but I have just plain never been kissed."

Well remembering General MacArthur's suggestion, I saw my obligation to democracy—and I performed it.
I am now happy to report that the first Japanese movie with a kissing scene soon will be showing here. The hubub aroused by the kiss still is rocking the studios and movie officials now realize that henceforth a considerable period must be all-lotted for the staging of a Japanese kissing scene.
But at least the ice is broken.

Nazi Prisoner-Physician Strangled Poisoned More Than 3,000 Infants
New York. (UP)—A plump little woman sat in a sun-flooded New York apartment today and told how, as a prisoner-physician in a German concentration camp, she killed more than 3000 babies.
Her voice was calm, but her hands twisted nervously in her lap as she said:
"Some I strangled with my own hands. Others I poisoned."
As she gestured, the sun brought out clearly on her white left forearm the number tattoed in blue—A 25404—placed there by the Germans who held her in Auschwitz concentration camp from May, 1944, to the war's end.
"You understand," she said in rapid Hungarian, "I had to kill them, in order to save both them and their mothers from the gas chambers and the crematorium.
"I was placed in charge of the women's hospital—an old stable with no medicine and no instruments—in July, 1944. I saw immediately that all new born babies and their mothers were put to death.
"I began then systematically to abort all pregnant women, and to kill the babies of those who gave normal birth. I would work all day on the wounds of those who had been beaten by the Germans, and at night I would do one abortion after another.
Dr. Gizella Pearl, who was freed
"I was supposed to give the new babies to the Germans alive. I delivered them dead, to spare them pain in the experimental laboratories and the gas chambers."

"But I saved many women from otherwise certain death," she said.
by the British last September, said she had taken the lives of more than 3,000 infants.
The dark-haired, middle-aged woman who formerly operated with her husband a sanatorium at Sziget, Hungary, told then how her entire family-mother, father, husband, and 17-year-old son-had been killed by the nazis.
"I tried twice to commit suicide," she said. "They caught me each time. But now, in spite of the horrible things I have experienced, I want to live, I hope I can be useful."
Doctor Loses Trousers But Delivers Twins En Masse Nowadays
Hobart, Okia, (UP)—Dr. J. P Braun simply refuses to be distracted when delivering babies, especially twins.
A safety pin, on which he relied too heavily, gave way and he felt his trousers slipping. Unable to grab them, he wigged out of them and kicked them to one side.
"It was so early in the morning there wasn't much of an audience," the doctor said, "and anyway I had on a physician's

Flour Black Market Prophesied by Bakers
Washington. (UP)—The American Baking association said today a proposed Agriculture department order reducing millers' flour deliveries by 25 per cent "can mean only a black market for bread."
John T. McCarthy, president of the association, said he had learned of the planned order and had advised all state baking groups that it was expected soon.
McCarthy said the effect of the order in many areas would be to cut present production of bread in half "That can mean only a black mar-
A department of Agriculture spokesman said new measures are necessary because it is evident that the U.S. cannot meet its commitments to starving countries abroad with the present conservation program.
McCarthy said bakers would have no objection to measure made necessary by a genuine shortage of grain.
"But there is no shortage of grain," he said. "The situation has been by an administrative means the handling of meat and grain prices."
Keitel Admits Guilt
Nuernberg, (UP)—Marsshall Wilhelm Keitel admitted before the War Crimes court now that the fate of 50 British airmen, recaptured after their escape from a German war prisoner camp, was sealed at a conference of himself, Adolph Hitler and Heinrich Himmel.

This thicket of birch trees is one of the Bell System's scientific workshops.
Here our scientists have strung telephone wires through the crowded branches to learn just how much tree rubbing and abuse the protective coverings and insulation on new types of wire will stand.
Important? With more than fifteen million insulated "drop wires" connecting home and business telephones to nearby poles, we've got to be sure that the wire we use is the very best that can be produced.

Manhattan. (Special)—In order to make its college students better citizens, Kansas State college recently has installed the Institute of Citizenship.
K-State Students Study Citizenship
Suggested courses for the fall semester are Freedom of Responsibility, Political Economy in Democratic States, and War and Peace in the World Community. It is expected that the enrollment in courses will grow, and that eventually the Institute will become a large department in the college.
Speakers which the Institute has sponsored include Dr. Ruben Gustavson and Hugh P. Raney, atom bomb specialists; Paul Appleby, of the United States budget department; and Mordecai Ezekiel, economist.
Take One, Not Both,
Former K.U. Prof Says
It was started from a $100,000 grant from Volkers Charities, Kansas City, Mo. Robert W. Walker and Carl Tjarsanden were hired to head the department. Classes were started this semester. Speakers were engaged to speak at assemblies, and interest rose among the students.
Washington. (UP) - Would you rather achieve fame or live to a ripe old age?
You must take your choice, according to a leading sociologist, because the two do not generally go together.
Courses are taught around the theory that reading, speaking, thinking, and writing are the essential tools for citizens. American Democratic Ideas was the first course offered. Students read the Declaration of Independence, Federalist papers, writings of Alexander Hamilton, and Thomas Jefferson. The books are the teachers, with Walker and Tjerandsen merely directing the discussion. All books for the course are furnished by the Institute.
He based his conclusion on a study of Americans listed in Who's Who. He found that these great and interesting people are not reaching their life expectancy.
Dr. Mapheus Smith, selective service sociologist and former University of Kansas professor, today said that it is the little known people who have a much better chance of living to an old age.
The reasons for their shorter lives, he said, was the mental strain, lack of exercise, overwork and erratic hours that generally accompany fame in modern times.

Hitler's Banquet Silver Now Used By Ex-Captain Anderson's Baby
Leo J. Anderson, Jr., 10 months old, may be said to have been born with a silver spoon in his mouth—Adolf Hitler's spoon.
The spoon, knife and fork that little Leo uses are part of a 100-piece set once owned by Adolf Hitler and used at state dinners and banquets. The set was sent home as a war trophy by Leo J. Anderson, Engineering sophomore.
Anderson, a former army captain, found the silverware in the vaults concealed in the tunnels connecting the various state buildings in Munich. He was commanding officer of the headquarters company of the 1269th engineer battalion, serving as part of an intelligence task force constituting the first Allied military personnel in advanced areas. The silverware was found during one of the search missions in the tunnels beneath the Reichschancellery.
"The silverware was hidden in large vaults along with Nazi party records, state papers, Goering's art collection, furniture, antiques and quantities of German marks. I was inclined to believe that the treasures had been buried with the thought that later they might be used by the Nazi party.
"The doors to the vaults had been cemented over but caretakers pointed out their location in return for food and cigarettes," he said.
The state seals and the initials "A.H." for Adolf Hitler are on each piece of the silverware from the tiniest spoons to the largest gravity
ladles and the large casseroles and bowls. The number "800" marks each piece, which Anderson said indicated that eight hundred one-thousandth per cent pure silver was used.
Leo, Jr., is the privileged character of this family. "We don't use any of the silverware except that which the baby uses," his father said.
Besides the war souvenir of silverware, Anderson has a luncheon set and a matchbox thought to have been owned by Hitler. The luncheon set is decorated with the state seal and Hitler's initials and the matchbox which shows signs of use carries the initials "A.H."
Transportation of the heavy silver would have been a problem if headquarters had not declared the set a war trophy.
"As it was," Anderson explained, "I was able to mail it home." The set is complete with the exception of about six pieces.
Anderson attended the University for two years before leaving in January, 1942, to work as a civilian employee for the corps of engineers. He entered the army in July, 1942 was later commissioned and sent overseas. He returned to this country in September, 1945, received his discharge in December and reentered K.U. at the beginning of the second semester.

The State Board of Regents has approved a plan for building part of the Student Union with funds now available, rather than waiting until the entire building can be constructed as a unit. The completed building will cost about $1,000,000, with about half that amount available now.
The second proposal is to construct the entire shell of the building without finishing all of the interior. Under this plan lounges, dance floors, and the cafeteria would be omitted.
One proposal is to build the subbasement, basement, and first floor. This would provide the recreation unit, including bowling alleys, ballroom, lounges, and post office.
Kansas State's war memorial will be a $200,000 chapel. Plans are not completed yet. The chapel will seat about 250 persons, and will include chimes and an organ.
MacArthur's Son Plays, Composes Piano Music
Tokyo, (UP)—Arthur MacArthur, eight-year-old son of Gen. Douglas MacArthur, has written two compositions for the piano and is considered by those close to the family to be a musical prodigy.
"He loves music and practices for hours at a time on his own initiative," said one of the few persons able to penetrate the screen of secrecy MacArthur maintains around his slightty-built son.
The boy has been taking music lessons since he was four and a half years old.
May Split From Democrats
Chicago. (UF)—The possibility of a split in Democratic party ranks developed today with the announcement that Progressive farm and labor leaders met secretly here during the weekend to discuss formation of a third party.

Eddie Arcaro, one of the most famous jockeys of all time, will have the chance May 4 to become the only four-time winner in Kentucky Derby history.
Arcaro has ridden three winners in the Churchill Downs classic. So have Isaac Murphy and Earl Sande, but Arcaro may surpass their record, if he chooses the right horse.
He will have his choice of the Maine Chance farm colts. Lord Boswell, Knockdown, Star Pilot, and Colony Boy. If he picks the right one, he will go down in jockey history.
Arcaro scored victories with Lawrin in 1938; with Whirlaway in 1941; and with Hoop, Jr., last year. In 1942 he had his choice between two horses, Devil Diver and Shut Out. He chose Devil Diver, and Shut Out won the race.

One of the top events in the Kansas Relays, April 20, will be the high jump. Competition will be rugged with some of the best jumpers in the nation vieing for top honors.
Kansas will be well represented by Tom Scofield and Bob Stoland. Scofield won the event at the Texas Relays last week with a leap of 6 feet 6 inches. Stoland has been out of action several weeks with a pulled muscle, but he is slated to line up for action by Relays time.
Iowa State's Dwayne Feekin and Missouri's L. D. Howe will put up a stiff fight for top honors. Scofield has a score to settle with Feekin, who beat him in the Big Six indoor meet.
Howe, hoisted, himself over 6 feet 5 inches last summer to share the National A.A.U. title with three others. He is expected to better this jump, if weather conditions are satisfactory.

Anyone remaining in Lawrence all next week will be offered a variety of sports attractions. The Jayhawk baseball球队 will make its debut Monday and Tuesday against Kansas State. Thursday afternoon the final session of spring football drills will be held with a big intrasquad game. Coach George Sauer promises to tell us what he thinks of Kansas' prospects on the gridiron next fall after this game.
The Kansas Interscholastic league track meet will be run Friday. High schools in track, will attempt to whi. its fourth consecutive title.
The Kansas Relays on Saturday will wind up the week's sports program. Many of the nation's outstanding track and field athletes will compete, and the Relays promises to furnish some of the best track entertainment seen here in years.
The Helms foundation ranked Kansas as the fourth best cage team in the nation the past season. The Oklahoma Aggies drew the top spot, North Carolina was placed second, and Kentucky was named the third best. It is interesting to note how these teams finished the season.
The Aggies were acclaimed the mythical national champions after winning the N.C.A.A. tournament in New York. They defeated North Carolina in the finals to take the title. So that puts the two top teams in the N.C.A.A. above the Jayhawkers.
Kentucky, coached by Kansas' Adolph Rupp, won the National Invitational tournament in New York. Some of the stiffest competition in the country was represented in the tourney.
It was a fine tribute to a great band of Jayhawkers that they should be ranked so high in the national ratings.

There is not one of us that can truthfully say that he cannot afford one morning in each week at which time to offer thanks for our many blessings. Easter should bring with it the realization that religion is vital and offers a haven of retreat, but as with everything worthwhile, requires a certain amount of exertion to comprehend its potentialities.

Vets To Get Million New Homes--- But They'll Have To Sit On The Floor
Washington. (UP) — The Civilian Production Administration in wondering where the furniture is coming from for the 1,200,000 homes for veterans scheduled for completion this year.
A CPA expert on furniture production says that CPA is now making a survey of amount of lumber needed by furniture manufacturers to equip a million veterans' homes this year. This survey is expected to be completed in about a week.
Preliminary estimates of CPA show that 80 per cent of the entire production of household furniture will be needed to equip 1,000,000 new homes. The remaining 20 per cent of production must fill all other needs
The current production rate of the industry is steadily declining. Many furniture concerns are closing down or working shorter hours because of the critical situation, according to the CPA.
The CPA spokesman was gloomy about the furniture situation, which he said, "has not been given enough attention." He predicted "a lot will be heard about it in the next few weeks."
For example, CPA is setting aside most of the production of plywood for prefabricated and other housing Plywood is also used extensively in the manufacture of radios, luggage and trunks, and many types of furniture.
Will CPA set aside a certain percentage of furniture manufacture to insure the furnishing of veterans' new homes? The answer is no. The agency hopes that furniture dealers will see that veterans are taken care of without orders from the government. "We hope veterans' needs can be filled in the good old American way," the CPA spokesman said.
Meanwhile, Charles Woodruff, acting director of the new CPA construction division, said that new permits granted contractors of commercial and industrial construction would not carry priorities. "We are not guaranteeing priorities to anyone who starts construction with a permit," he said.
Those who start construction without a permit have violated the second war powers act, and, if proved guilty, can be penalized with a $10,000 fine, a year's imprisonment, or both.
The construction division offices in 71 cities are now open. Permits will be issued in proportion to the amount of material on hand. Woodruff said every effort would be made to bring materials from "free" areas, where they are in good supply, to "tight" areas, where they are needed.

$400 Pay Raise Ditched
"Only $600 had been received to ward a $10,000 campus memoria drive quota," Nancy Tomlinson said today.
Washington. (UP)—A House Military Affairs subcommittee today ditched its previous proposal for a flat $400 annual pay raise for officers and men in the armed forces, and approved instead a plan giving increases ranging from 10 to 50 per cent, with the largest boosts going to the lowest ranks.
Memorial Campaign Off to Slow Start
Kappa Alpha Theta and Delta Upsilon have both subscribed 100 per cent, she said, each member giving at least $2.
"I'm frankly amazed at the lack of cooperation in this drive," stated Miss Tomlinson. "The students must not realize that it will take at least $2 for each of them to make the change, but I know that there has been such a good response in some quarters, and I hope this will influence others."
A public discussion about the memorial drive will be held Monday at 7 p.m. in the men's lounge of the Union for students not living in organized houses, who did not have an opportunity to hear speakers on the drive Monday and Tuesday, Jim Crook, chairman, has announced.
Richard Schiefelbusch will be in charge of the meeting, with Jean Moore and Kenneth Beasley as the speakers.
Seven Isn't 'Chuck' Elliott's Lucky Number
$20,785.49 has been collected in Lawrence toward the community $50,000 goal, the Chamber of Commerce reported today.
Seven years "Chuck" Elliott has waited.
Seven years he has looked forward to being senior manager of the far-famed Kansas Relays.
And today, with the Relays only a week off, Chuck Elliott lies in a Watkins hospital bed.
Seven years ago, he started work. He became freshman manager for the Relays, doing a lot of dirty work no one else wanted to do.
He moved up to sophomore and junior manager, did more dirty work, envying the big boss of the Relays committee, that senior manager, who had so many of the responsibilities for one of the best-known track and field events in the country.
Then he went to war. The Kansas Relays were cancelled, but when Chuck came back from war this spring, the athletic department said "you will be the senior manager."
Seven years he had waited. Then in the hospital for a major operation.
The operation was a success, but the team than that Chuck thinks about today.
He lies between those white sheets and stares out a site window. If the Hill were leveled off a bit, he could see through to the stadium, where the starting gun will pop for the relays April 20.
"You'll be up walking in five or six days," the doctor has said. "But whether you can get as far as the stadium in a week. . ."

T. B.
One arm in a sling is bad enough, but Mary Jean Monroe still can laugh with life with both her arms in slings.
Miss Monroe, College sophomore from Fleming, Colo., broke an elbow and a wrist while attempting some trick riding in a University equitation class. The accident happened March 27, but she has been attending class the past two weeks.
Main trouble now is that she can't feed herself. The only book she can carry is her Spanish text—"because it will fit in my sling," she explained.
"My friends have been nice about helping me study and eat," the coed declared, "but I still can't do any of my written assignments."
She gets to about four hours of lectures a day, and the doctors at Watkins Memorial hospital, where she's been staying, predict the casts can come off in about two months-just in time for the end of the semester. (Daily Kansan photo by Ralph Andrea).

Uniang Intervenes In Political Crisis
Chungking. (UP) - Gen. Chiang Kai-Shek intervened directly today in the Nationalist-Communist political crisis as 30,000 Communist troops, were reported besieging a small Nationalist garrison at Changchun, capital of Manchuria.
Chinese quarters said that if the move succeeded it might relax conflict in Manchuria which is rapidly assuming the aspects of full-fledged civil war.
Iran Withdraws From UN Dispute
The council starts a difficult week with the showdown with the Russians on Iran already overshadowed by the preliminary diplomatic maneuvering over Franco Spain. During the "cooling off" recess of nearly a week there has been an intensive buildup for a crucial test later this week over Poland's charges against Franco Spain.
New York (UP) — Iran's decision to withdraw its formal charges against Russia failed today to alter the determination on most United Nations Security council members to keep the Iranian case on the agenda until May 6, the date Russia has promised to get out of Iran.
Iran's last-minute decision to support the Soviet demand for immediate dropping of the Iranian case promised another bitter debate and another Big Three split when the council meets this afternoon.
Iranian Ambassador Hussein Ala declines to comment on his new instructions.

U.S. Has Only 'Second-Rate' Scientists On Atomic Research, Urey Declares
Let Civilians Control A-Bomb, He Asks
A limited world government with world control of atomic energy under the United Nations, is the only solution to the atomic bomb problem. Dr. Harold C. Urey, Nobel prize winner and member of the University of Chicago faculty, told a Hoch auditorium convocation this morning.
George Caldwell, chairman of Forums board, which sponsored the convoction, on "Atomic Energy, Master or Servant," introduced Chancellor Deane W. Malott, who introduced Dr. Urey.
"We have three alternatives in dealing with the atomic bomb," Dr. Urey said.
The first is to do nothing, and let the world drift on, producing World War III in 25 years or less. In five years, other countries will acquire the same facilities we have. Imagine the situation if a small controversy should arise, such as those we have had with Russia in the past few weeks. We all would live in a constant state of tension and fear.
"The second solution." Dr. Urey continued, "is immediate attack, while only we have the bombs and facilities for making them. But then what? The United States would have to become another Rome, ruling the world by force for many decades, until the hatred our attack had instilled had been forgotten."
The only solution which the scientists who developed atomic energy favor, Dr. Urey said, is world control of the atomic bomb, and world control of war.
Mrs. Martha Truman Here for Wedding
The atomic bomb has made the world into two political units, the United States and Russia, with their friends and satellites, he said.
Mrs. Martha Truman, 93-year-old mother of the president of the United States, celebrated the anniversary of her son's first year in office Friday by attending the wedding, in Myers hall, of Miss LuEllen Hall, a family friend, and Henry Pauspin, engineering student.
"Don't put anything in the paper about me," she said. "Tell them about that beautiful bride."
When someone suggested that she be carried upstairs in a chair, to the wedding reception, she declared, "I don't need any chair," and proved it, going upstairs aled only by a white bamboo cane.
Dr. Urey will be in the men's lounge of the Union building at 4:30 today to answer student's questions on matters of atomic interest. The meeting, sponsored by the Forum board, is open to the public.
"The long-term solution we must work for is a world government with legislative, judicial, and executive powers, which it draws from the people, not from the nation-states.
The scientists who developed the atomic bomb regret its use as a weapon, but have a real pride of accomplishment in having understood another field of nature and nature's laws. Dr. Urey said.
Wearing a perky blue straw hat with three big white gardenias and a blue veil, Mrs. Truman kissed the bride and groom, met old friends, and enjoyed punch and wedding cake. Her daughter, Miss Mary Truman, who played the wedding music, sat beside her, introducing guests to her, and seeing that they did not tire her.
Nickels Recital Tonight
Arleene Nickels, soprano from the studio of Miss Meribah Moore, will give her senior recital at 8 tonight in Frank Strong auditorium. Her accompanist will be Marjean Carr.
'Other Nations Have Top Men on Job, But Best Americans Aren't With Government'.
The United States is working on atomic research "without even a good skeleton crew," while other nations are assigning their top scientists to the job. Dr. Harold C. Urey, key figure in the wartime development of the atomic bomb, told the Daily Kansan today.
The University of Chicago professor was on the campus for a convoca-
Campbell Elected Relays Queen
Carolyn Campbell, Fine Arts sephomore, will reign as Queen of the 21st annual Kansas Relays, Saturday. Miss Campbell is a member of Pi Beta Phi from Kansas City, Mo.
As queen, Miss Campbell will be presented to Relays officials, visiting dignitaries, and spectators, and will have her regal serenity heckled by photographers' flash bulbs.
The Relays royalty were selected by the University of Iowa track squad from 23 photographs.
The queen's attendants will be Georgia Lee Westmoreland, Delta Gamma, and Jeanne Gorbutt, Gamma Phi Beta. Miss Westmoreland is a sophomore in the School of Education, from Kansas City, Mo. Miss Gorbutt is a College sophomore from Topeka.
Miss Campbell will serve as the first Relays queen since 1942. The Relays became a war casualty for three years after the 1942 carnival.
Virginia McGill reigned as the last Relays queen, and her escorts were Gloria Brinkman, Chi Omega, and Mary McCleary, Delta Gamma. They were picked by the University of Minnesota track team.
New Kansas Engineer Staff Announced
The Kansas Engineer staff for 1946-47 has been appointed by the Engineering student council. The appointees, who will take over with the next issue, are Robert Kunkle, junior, editor; John Thiele, sophomore, and Morris Borene, freshman, assistant editors; Barbara Hume, College freshman, business manager; Harold Vagtborg, freshman, advertising manager; and Joann Ruese, sophomore, circulation manager.
The following members of the outgoing staff were awarded Kansas Engineer keys in recognition of their services: Richard Nelson, senior; William Andrews, senior; Betty Jennings, College senior and Frank Darden, junior.
Urey said most of America's top-tight atom scientists weren't working for the government now. They are pulling for the support of the McMahon bill to put atomic energy under civilian control, he said.
"What the government has left is a crew of fairly competent men—second-raters but still pretty good—who are working on atomic energy, but certainly not looking into any more of the atom bomb's secrets," he said.
Urey said establishment of civilian control of atomic energy with "a good five-man civilian commission in charge" should help direct America and the world away from another war.
"That is," he added, "unless Mr. Truman lets Groves (Maj. Gen. Leslie R. Groves, wartime military head of the atomic work) have his finger in the pie. Groves is a completely impossible man to work with, and if he gets in, even as a retired military man, then the top scientists of the country will have nothing to do with him.
"Good men simply won't work on the atom bomb the way the army wants them to," he continued. "At least a civilian commission wouldn't throw out a competent scientist just because it didn't like him, which is what the military did."
Urey predicted that atom research would be directed "toward developing weapons more deadly than the original A-bomb if there is the slightest indication that we are heading toward a third war.
"The world will be on that warpath again if we don't establish adequate control of atomic energy within five years," he said.
Secrets of the atom bomb aren't even "scientifically interesting." Urey said. "This is one place where even a Mata Hari can't help spy—a good figure isn't any assistance when it comes to understanding voluminous scientific reports."
Urey foresaw a "working world government by the end of the century" as an outgrowth of the atomic bomb. That government, he said, "might work out of current international peace efforts, or it might have to be helped along by a third world war."

Beautiful Girls Don't Go to College, Showman Billy Rose Maintains
New York, (UP)—“With very few exceptions, beautiful girls don't go to college,” Billy Rose, New York showman, declared today.
"Judging beauty is an important part of my business." Rose said. $^{b}$ This year I've waded through pictures of hundreds, possibly thousands, of college girls trying to find the prettiest for their class magazines.
"I start out anxious to find some fresh beauty, a fascinating face, a pretty pair of legs, a gorgeous figure. But I'm convinced that with very few exceptions, beautiful girls don't go to college.
"It seems to me that when a girl
realizes she has a gorgeous figure she figures she doesn't have to fool around with higher figures. When a girl is beautiful she either marries, goes into show business or becomes a model. She doesn't go to college."
Rose said he certainly had nothing against college girls. He just prefers a brains and beauty combo. Such a girl can come to him dripping with degrees and he'll be only too glad to hire her. After all, the publicity wouldn't be bad, would it?
"As a matter of fact, I wouldn't hire a showgirl for the Diamond Horseshoe unless she had a fair amount of gray matter," he said. "But being brainy doesn't necessarily mean a college education."

Share Your Share
The next best thing to a "First" is a "Close Second" and K.U. has the opportunity to be a close second in a worthy project.
Cornell university has begun a "Share Your Share" program of food conservation which it believes is the first such campus program in the country.
Ninety-six per cent of the women at Cornell have voted to impose upon themselves a program of self abstinence in food consumption. Bread is not to be eaten at any evening meal and there will be one meatless day each week. They expect the same plan to be adopted by the men students at Cornell.
It shouldn't be necessary to point out again the seriousness of the current world food shortage. That has been explained fully over the radio and in the newspapers and magazines many times.
It's common knowledge that Americans waste enough food each day to feed millions of people and that we eat better than the people of any other country. Our moral conscience should cause us to do all in our power to give life and new hope to the hungry and discouraged peoples of the world.
Hunger has often been the seed of revolt, chaos, and tyranny throughout history. The world is in dire need of unity today. Widespread hunger and suffering will not help us to achieve that world unity.
There is common agreement that the world of tomorrow must be founded on brotherhood, and our brotherhood can't be sincere if we profess it and yet allow millions to die of starvation.
It may be hard to visualize the critical conditions that exist in Europe and Asia as long as we have our own well-stocked stores and restaurants. To dispel any doubt about the seriousness of the situation one need only talk to a veteran who has served in one of the war-devastated countries.
Personal efforts to prevent food waste and to eat less are laudable. But even better is a program that unites groups of people in a common cause to that end. We have the opportunity to set a precedent in the Middle West in a cause of the highest merit.
The students of K.U. can show their awareness of the critical food shortage and their earnest desire to do their part to alleviate that condition by embarking on a University-wide effort to prevent food waste and use less food from the world's insufficient supply.
Our reward would be the satisfaction that we had helped to save human lives. Who can ask for a better reason?

Why don't the parties remain active throughout the year? You can be of service not only to the student body but to the entire student body as well.
Parties should serve as a medium for reflecting student opinion to the student council and for crystalizing opinions into definite issues to be presented to the council for action. Continued activity throughout the year would help stimulate the interest of all students in Hill affairs and issues.
If there is any reason for student political parties, then that reason is sufficient for them to show an active interest in student affairs throughout the school year.
The Danforth chapel has been open only about two weeks and already the building and grounds department reports that students are ruining the grass around it by failing to use the stone walk.

You Can Tell Me. As Winston Karkew, Ben McKinley and Dan Gardiner, SAE's, were approaching the Chi O house they saw an ambulance out in front and a man at the door ringing the bell. They made a mad dash to the door, grabbed the man and shaking him asked, "What's the matter? Don't spare us, we live here too!" The man answered in an exasperated tone, "I came to get Shirley Crawford." Then he added, "She's my daughter."

Expiring League Of Nations Shower UN How Not To Keep World Peace
By LOUIS F. KEEMLE
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
It is somehow symbolic that the last rites for the League of Nation should be in progress in Geneva at the same time that its successor. United Nations, is grappling with one crisis after another in New
The scene has shifted from the old world to the new; the problems remain much the same in pattern, although in many ways much larger in scope. The world is waiting in anxiety to see whether they will be handled more intelligently and effectively.
Even more, there is a negative value which might be the greatest of all. That consists of the lessons to be learned from the League's mistakes and occasional successes.
The League is dead, but it is passing on to its infant successor a legacy which is not all failure and idiosyncrasion. The valuable part of the legacy is a record of experience and of earnest effort toward a lofty goal, even if the effort failed. In addition, there is a groundwork of experience with the national social, health and related problems which should put the UN far ahead of what is would have been had it started from scratch.
Many reasons have been advanced for the failure of the League of Nations. The chief and most obvious is the absence of the United States throughout the League's existence, and the limited adherence of Russia, which was admitted on sufferance in the 1920's and expelled in 1939 after the invasion of Finland.
The League had vague provisions for collective action against an aggressor, but its members were not bound to take armed action and it had no intrenational military force. Economic penalties were tried, but failed miserably.
Italy invaded Ethiopia and was not punished.
The powers which subsequently became the axis wrecked the League by successive acts of aggression.
Germany kicked over the Verta-
lon who had barely bound into the League covement
Japan flagrantly violated the terms of her mandate over the Pacific is by fortifying them for war. and later with the annexation of Manchuria.
The League floundered helplessly in the face of foreign intervention in
the Spanish civil war.
With each successive step, the aggressor nations realized that if they could get away with one clear act of defiance, they eventually could get away with anything. Hence the second world war.
The fear among delegates to the present UN Security Council in New York has been that if the authority of the UN is flouted at this stage, the result would be weakening and dangerous to the world organization.
Every effort therefore is being made to preserve at least the semblance of UN jurisdiction over any dispute or question that might endanger world peace. Wide concessions were made to keep the Greek, Indonesian or Iranian issues within bounds.
The real problem has been for the big nations to pull together and so far it has been a terrific strain. If Russia, Britain and the United States can emerge from the present meeting without an open split, the smaller nations are likely to have a little of their confidence restored. The shadow of the atomic bomb may be somewhat less frightening.
Falls 15 Floors—With Interruptions—and Lives
Chicago, (UP) - James Anderson,
29, was working on a 15th floor sca-folding on the Dearborn hotel. He lost his grip and fell.
A rope hung down the side of the building, but Anderson's falling body was at least four feet away. His partner, Phil Walsch. 53, swung the rope toward the falling man. By what Walsch called "a million to one chance," the rope looped about Anderson's body as he hurtled past the eighth floor.
Anderson slid down the rope to the third floor. But there he lost his grip and tumbled to the ground
Attendants at St. Luke's hospital said today that Anderson's only injury was a wrenched back.

Westminster Hall To Be Religious Center Only
Frances Richert, College freshman, spoke on "Air Navigation" at a Mathematics club meeting in the Union Thursday. She described and showed navigation maps of a flight she made from Newton to northern Texas last summer.
Westminster hall will not house University women after this semester, Dr. Theodore Aszman, pastor of the Lawrence First Presbyterian church, announced Thursday in his resignation as director of Westminster Foundation, Presbyterian student program.
"Use of Westminster hall as a student religious center as it was originally planned instead of a woman's dormitory follows the policy of the Presbyterian church," Dr. Aszman explained today.
Spanish Club Plans Program
The hall, located at 1221 Oread, for the past few years has housed 16 University women and served as Fresbyterian student headquarters.
A program of traditional Spanish dances and songs will be presented by the Spanish club in Frank Strong auditorium April 30 under the direction of Alvaro Chavaria. Those in the program are Bolivar Marquez, Samuel Duran, Ruben Valderramas, Mrs. Manuel Maldonado, Judith Quiras, Miss Irene Cebula, Nancy Cook, and Dorothy Gentry. Those participating will wear Spanish costumes and will dance the conga, somba, Mexican hat dance, tango and the rumba.
Richert Tells of Flight
Harvey on Navy Staff
Lt. William B. Harvey has been assigned to the Naval unit here as an instructor in ordinance to replace Lt. Howard A. Morton, who is eligible for discharge, Capt. John V. Peterson, commanding officer, announced recently.
Lieutenant Harvey will arrive here for duty in the near future. His last station was at Tufts college, Medford, Mass.
Gerard Protects Students At Work or Play
One man polices and protects 37 University buildings and over 5,000 students. He is Deputy Sheriff A. H. Gerard. He says he works a 60 hour week directing traffic, checking cars for permits twice a day, and being on hand at all University dances.
Mr. Gerard directs traffic daily at the intersection between the library and Fowler Shops at 8:20 a.m. and 1:20 p.m. "I've been doing this for $2\frac{1}{2}$ years, but my work has more than doubled this semester," he said.
Mr. Gerard has been at the University $2_{1/2}$ years and was Deputy Sheriff for 6 years in New Mexico where according to him "you really had to be on your toes." Mr. Gerard wears a shiny silver badge proclaiming him a Deputy Sheriff of Douglas county. "I really work for the state, but I have a commission from the sheriff in order to have authority."
"I usually stand back and let traffic flow as it normally does unless it gets congested and then I intervene making pedestrians and car drivers take turns crossing the street."
"The accident rate is low and not much damage is done in car collisions because most of the cars are old wrecks anyway and couldn't be hurt." Mr. Gerard continued.
"You have to use judgment in a job like this and know when to be severe and when to be lenient" Mr. Gerard remarked. "I don't want to interfere with school spirit, but I don't want state property destroyed."
"I have more trouble with drivers from the city coming up on the hill than I do with students not obeying me," he concluded.
Two of the three women whose families will receive these certificates were serving with the American Red Cross and one was in the Women's Army Corps.
University War Dead Honored by K.U.
The certificate, bound in smooth black calfskin leather, at the bottom of which is the signature of Chancellor Deane W. Malott and the University seal, reads:
"The University of Kansas holds in reverent memory the name of (the person's name) who gave his life for his country in the Second World War. May the sacrifice which he made, help those who come after him to live peaceably in a free world."
The band will appear in a morning concert at Iola high school, in the afternoon at the Chanute High school, and a night program at Coffeeville High school.
Engraved in gold on the front of the folder is the University seal. The folder will be lined with white satin.
Radway Replaces Coldwell
Lt. R. W. Radway, U.S.N., will relieve Lt. L. L. Coldwell, who will be discharged from active duty May 2, as instructor in navigation, Condr. R. J. Baum said today. Lt. Radway has had 25 months sea day and was commanding officer of a landing craft for infantry before coming here.
Instrumental soloists include Leo Horacek, cornet; ShirleySLou, clarinet; and Richard Ferrin, violinist, who will play the solo in a number written especially for violin and band.
A concert tour will be made by the University's 110-piece concert band on April 29, Russell L. Wiley, director of the band, announced today.
K.U. Band To Tour Kansas High Schools
A baton twirling exhibition will be presented by William Sears, Alvin Haggard, Dorothy Higginbottom, Glenda Luehring and Mary Ernst.
The tour is the fourth major trip the K. U. band has taken this year. They played in Wichita, at the Big-Six Indoor track meet in Kansas City, and at the K.U.-Oklahoma A. & M. basketball game in Kansas City.
Theta Sigs Elect Officers; Choose Convention Delegate
Recently elected officers of Theta Sigma Phi, honorary journalism sorority, are Patricia Penney, president; Dixie Gilland, vice-president; Alamada Bollier, secretary; Anne Young, treasurer; Billie Marie Hamilton, keeper of the archives.
Letters are being sent to faculty members, asking them to contribute to the Lawrence cancer drive, which began last week, Ogden Jones, University chairman, said today. Dr.F.C. Allen is general chairman of the drive, which will continue for the rest of April, with a goal of $8,000.
Miss Hamilton was chosen delegate to the Theta Sigma Phi national convention at Chicago in June, with Miss Gilland as alternate.

Bring Along Your Brass Knuckles We're Going to Visit Congress
By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
Washington. (UP)—It is a nerve-shattering experience. I can tell you, visiting the house of representatives in these parlous times. Makes you wish you'd remembered to bring along your air raid warden hat in case the ceiling falls.
So there were two leading congressmen trying to climb down each other's throats without even removing their broogans. The Democrats were cheering. The Republicans were going, "Boo, Boo, Boo," an unidentified snake-in-the-grass was hissing, and I was scared. I have watched riots develop in my day. I started to scram.
Old hands in the press galleries restrained me. They said this was nothing unusual in the springtime of an election year. They said the boys (everybody now was shouting) simply were getting in practice for the political battles to come. They said the ceiling recently had been reinforced and the danger was slight. I resumed my seat, but I remained on the alert, ready to jump.
Rep. Frank B. Keefe, Oshkosh Wis., Republican, said he'd read in the papers that Democratic Leader John W. McCormack had made a speech last Saturday night claiming all the Republicans on the Pearl Harbor investigating committee had acted disgracefully. He said he had not, either, performed disgracefully. That started it.
McCormack laughed. He said he meant all the Republicans on the committee except Keefe, for whom he had the highest regard. The Republicans booed; the Democrats cheered.
Rep. Bertrand W. Gearhart Fresno, Calif., said, hey, he was a Republican and he was on the committee. He said he'd been insulted. He said he defied McCormack to show him one place in 1300 pages of Pearl Harbor testimony where he'd said anything disgraceful.
"I care not for the attacks of the left-wing smear-bund," the chubby Gearhart shouted.
Hooray, the Republicans cried
Boo, the Democrats booed
"Can the gentleman from California say he has not been witch hunts screamed the tall, gray-hooded McCoy? The boors versed sides again with the
"I defy you . . ." shouted Gearhart.
"You . . . You . . ." yelled Mc-Cormack.
They shook their fists. They made so much noise the stenographer, who was supposed to record the words of the statesmen for posturity, laid down his fountain pen. His expression was what I'd call resigned.
There was so much noise now you almost could see it. The speaker banged his gavel. The hissing grew louder. A soprano congresswoman screamed for order, order, order. Gearhart said he'd been subjected to no more criticism than Keefe.
"You are trying to ride on in on the back of the gentleman from Wisconsin," McCormack yelled. "I am not." Gearhart yelled back.
"The gentleman from Wisconsin is an entirely different kind of gentleman than the gentleman from California." McCormack screamed.
"Why " shouted Gearhart.
"You"
"Yes," shouted McCormack, "I said it Saturday and I say it again that the Republicans on that Pearl Harbor committee (not you, Keefe) were trying to smear President Roosevelt."
"Will you yield?" demanded Rep. Robert Rich of Pennsylvania.
"No, no, no," McCormack shouted. And so on for about 10 more minutes. Then everybody got busy on the second deficiency bill. The ceiling didn't fall. Next time I'll act brave. I am learning, as you can see, about politics.
Gambling Near UN
New York. (UP)—Four men were caught shooting dice a few blocks from the new United Nations site in Flushing.
Magistrate Maurice Simmons warned, "You might disturb the peace of the world with that gambling." He gave them a suspended sentence.
Lichfield Inmate Refuses to Testify
London. (UP) — A prosecution court martial witness has refused to testify about his alleged mistreatment as an inmate of the Lichfield army prison camp because of the "treatment I have received in the London guardhouse" where he was confined while awaiting his court appearance.
The reluctant witness was William F. Pond, former enlisted combat service man, who is under a seven-year sentence with dishonorable discharge for being AWOL.
Pond said he was "afraid" to testify because of the treatment of prisoner-witnesses in the London guardhouse.
Pond was called to testify in the trial of Staff Sgt. James M. Jones, one of the enlisted men accused of brutality at Lichfield. He said he had made a sworn statement to the "investigating general" here. He did not explain further.
The prosecution asked for a recess to study Pond's attitude.
Last week Capt. Earl J. Carroll, assistant prosecutor, resigned. In a letter he charged that prosecution witnesses held in the London guard-house were being discouraged from giving testimony and conditions were so harsh there that several prisoner-witnesses had broken out of confinement.
At the opening of today's session, Brig. Gen. E. D. Betts, judge advocate general of the European theater, pledged that the trial of eight enlisted men charged with brutality at Lichfield would be conducted "without prejudice to the defense."
It's Not Such A Cold, Cold World After All,Cripple Finds
Chicago. (UP)—George Barr, Chicago chemical manufacturer, believed today that most people are kind and honest despite a world filled with strife.
To prove his faith was not misplaced, Barr made a $500 investment in human nature. It paid off four to one.
Barr, 34. a cripple, selected the names of 500 persons, most of them from the telephone book and mailed each a $1 bill, enclosing a letter stating that the money was his contribution to the Illinois Association for the Crippled.
"I'm sending these dollars," his letter said, "in the belief that every one will come back, and that each dollar will bring several more with it.
"Remember, both my dollar and your dollar go to help crippled children and adults. Have I made a good really kind realy kind really kind —or tyrally heartless?"
Of the 411 who replied, 339 sent back the dollar with something additional—from $100 to 25 cents, he said. Seventy-two sent back the dollar and 89 so far haven’t sent back anything.
Washington. (UP) — The OPA has removed price controls from perfume and hair beautifying cream but will continue them on lipstick, toothpaste, nail polish and face cream.
Price Lid Off Horse Blankets; OPA Still Sits On Lipstick
The agency also announced that controls would be removed at once. These includes, washing machine covers, flags, fishing lines and coat hanger covers.
The contributions, in addition to Barr's $411, totalled $2,069.50.
O. P.A. said it was lifting controls on such items as perfume because they were "luxuries."

Cotton Demand Stops Quotas, Allotments
Washington (UP) - The House agriculture committee today approved a bill to forbid establishment of marketing quotas and acreage allotments for cotton in 1947 because of continued heavy demands.
The action was taken on the re- recommendation of a special cotton subcommittee headed by Rep. Stephen Pace, D., Ga.
The committee asked the Agriculture department to hold up preliminary work on the 1947 cotton quota and allotment program until Congress has a chance to act on the measure.
The subcommittee said its recommendation was based on the fact that cotton will be in great need this year and probably next due to growing exports, high domestic consumption and heavy demand for production of fats, oils and protein feeds.
Jap Subs Are Being Sunk By Big Four Powers

Stuck With Stamps
Yesterday Weir, discharged from the army, went to the post office to cash in his stamps. The clerk said post office regulations forbid the repurchase of postage stamps.
"And who wants to buy $400 worth of 6-cent stamps when airmail stamps are 8 cents now?" asked Weir.

Flowers For University Offices Supplied by Building and Grounds
Thirty-five to 50 bouquets are supplied to administrative and departmental offices once or twice a week by the department of buildings and grounds from flowers grown in the University greenhouse.
Cut flowers from the greenhouse are sent to the chancellor's office and business office. They decorate the hospital, the Union, and the library, as well as the various offices. The exact number of bouquets sent out depends upon the number of flowers in bloom in the greenhouse.
A pre-war practice was the placing of flower arrangements in the rooftops of Strong hall. This practice may be resumed by buildings and grounds.
The greenhouse furnishes cut flowers for various University teas, dinners, and parties.
Its services are not confined to this campus. Flowers are sent to the University hospital in Kansas City to be planted there.
The lilacs blooming along Lilac lane and on other parts of the campus will last approximately a week, according to James Reiter, landscape foreman. The iris blooming will last about two weeks.
About the time the iris fade, or near May 1, the flower beds in front of the hospital, the triangular bed by Green hall, the Chi Omega circle, and the bed in front of Hoch auditorium will be planted with flowers transplanted from the greenhouse. These will include red geraniums, petunias, and red and green Alternanthera.
Thanks to the efforts of the greenhouse workers with cooperation from nature, the campus never will be without flowers this spring. Mr.Reiter's problem now, however, is what kind of flowers to use at Commencement in June since the early spring has rushed the blooming time for most of his flowers.

Prof. Allen Crafton, the director, said that this comedy on the history of the human race is the most produced play in America this season. He added that during the year of production, 1943, it took both the Pulitzer prize and the Critics' prize.
The play is about George Atobus, any average American man, his wife and two children, and the maid, Lila Sabina. They have survived fire, flood, pestilence, the seven-year locusts, the ice age, the black pox, many wars and many depressions all by the "skin of their teeth." And still they have great plans for the future.
They live now in the present, now in the past, are alternately "be-witched, befuddled and becalmed." They are the stuff of which heroes and fools are made. They are true offsprings of Adam and Eve, victims all who are which such heirs. The play is a tribute to their indestructibility.
The presentation of the play is informal. Some of the action takes
place off the stage. Sabina, the maid, has no scruples about talking to the audience.
Speaking about the play in the first act, she says, "I don't understand a single word of it, all about the troubles the human race has gone through. . . Besides the author hasn't made up his mind as to whether we're all living back in caves or in New Jersey today, and that's the way it is all the way through."
What's more, the play ends as it began, with the Atrobuses still planning the future with confidence, and with Sabina explaining that "the end of the play isn't written yet."
Vander Werf, Bradlow Improve on DDT
Profs. Calvin Vander Werf and H. Leon Bradlow, both K.U. chemistry department teachers, added fluorine to DDT, made what they call DFDT; and now find experimentally that it's more potent than its original, they explained.
Two University scientists have developed a stronger successor to DDT, they told the American Chemical society meeting in Atlantic City last week.

RESEARCH AND ENGINEERING KEEP GENERAL ELECTRIC YEARS AHEAD
LIGHTING AT GENERAL ELECTRIC
THE amount of knowledge accumulated in lamp making is enormous. Some of this knowledge is committed to paper, but much of it is to be found only in the minds of technical and production men in the laboratories and in the factories. Among these men are scores who, on leaving their technical colleges, have since directed their special training to developing better lamps for less money.
The manufacturing operations of General Electric's Lamp Department are far-flung, its 36 plants being scattered about the country in 17 cities.
Altogether they add up to 94 acres of floor space roughly equivalent to an eight-story, mile-long factory a hundred feet wide.
The goal of G-E Lamp Research has always been to produce the best possible lamps for every lighting service at the lowest cost. Over the years lamp prices have been repeatedly reduced while lamp efficiency has steadily improved. For example, the present 60-watt lamp bulb is 56 percent brighter than its ancestor of 1923, yet costs only one-quarter as much. General Electric Co., Schenectady, N.Y.

SPOTLIGHT ON SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
The Kansas Relays Saturday will offer some of the best track and field stars in the nation. All of the events will be hotly contested, but one of the biggest battles will be the javelin throw.
Four of the top contenders in the spear-throwing contest will be Herb Grote, Paul Fagerlind, Leonard Naab and Karl Ebel. Each of the first three has marks of better than 200 feet, and Ebel is expected to reach that distance this season.
Grote, Nebraska field star, was runner-up in the N.C.A.A. meet in 1940. Fagerlind, Iowa university white hope, was runner-up in the 1945 N.C.A.A. carnival. Naab, Michigan State ace, was the Central Intercollegiate champion in 1942.
Ebel, Jayhawker freshman, looms as one of the finest field prospects in the Big Six. He was selected on Look's "All-Interscholastic Track Team" last year. Ebel took third place at the Texas Relays, his first collegiate meet, with a heave of 189 feet, 6 inches. He is expected to do much better than this before the season is over.
- * *
Another outstanding college freshman track star who will compete Saturday is Bill Mack, Drake's sensational young miler. He was the nation's No. 1 high school milest year, and seems to have made the big step up to college competition satisfactorily.
Mack will compete in the Glenn Cunningham invitation mile run. The 18-year-old Drake star participated in the Chicago Relays in his first big indoor meet. He finished fourth, but the other entries were men like Leslie MacMitchell, who is considered the nation's top miler. But Mack finished with a time of 4:19 and was the talk of track experts everywhere.
Many track authorities believe the Drake ace may be the greatest freshman miler of all time. If he can get his time down to 4:15 on the outdoor track, the distinction probably will be his.
**
Sidelights The Jayhawkers showed surprising strength at the dual meet with the Sooners, Saturday. Kansas placed two men to the Sooners' one in 10 of the events.
Johnny Jackson realized a life ambition when he ran the 440-yard dash in 49.5 seconds. He has tried for years to break 50 seconds, and Saturday his dream came true. . . Charlie Black adds strength to the field events for Kansas. He is sure to win some points at the Big Six meet. . . When Andy Lunsford won the 880-yard run Saturday, it was the first time this year that another Kansas man had beaten Harold Hinchee. . . Opening day games in the majors tomorrow start what probably is one of the most colorful baseball races in history.
Oil Company Is Building New City Near Elkhart
Johnson. (UP)—A new city began springing up in the midst of Stanton county wheat fields today as officials of the Pure Oil company planned to move 75 homes into the gas fields.
The company today was moving huge semi-trailer loads of cement and building material to the site to erect the 75 dwelling units.
The site of the new town is about 20 miles southwest of Elkhar.

Kansas Beats Sooners 71-59 in Dual Meet
Kansas' Jayhawkers gave advance notice to the Big Six schools Saturday that they would be much stronger at the conference outdoor track and field meet, than they were at the indoor carnival in defeating Oklahoma's Sooners $71_{25}$ to $59_{34}$ in a dual meet in Memorial Stadium.
Eleven new records were established, six by Oklahoma and five by Kansas.
Kansas.
Johnny Jackson turned in the best performance of the day when he ran the 440-yard dash in 49.5 seconds to set a new record. The former mark was 51.5 seconds.
Lenoy Robison was high point man with 13 points. Robison took firsts in the shot put and discus and scored a second in the javelin. "Robbie" established new meet records in both the discus and shot put.
Dexter Welton, the Jayhawkers' fast-improving hurdler, pulled the upset of the day when he defeated Jon Sharp. Big Six indoor champion, in the high hurdles. Sharp held a slight lead most of the way, but he hit the last hurdle and broke his stride, and Welton forged ahead.
Charlie Black added strength to the already potent field event scoring of the Jayhawkers. It was Black's first meet this year, and he took first in the pole vault and third in the shot put, discus, and broad jump.

Kansan Doesn't Print the News Is Criticism At Student-Faculty Meet
O
That students "aren't getting news from the Daily Kansan" was one criticism voiced at the student-faculty conference held Saturday at the Lawrence Country club.
"Students have a right to say what goes into their paper," Duane Adsit, College freshman, protested. "The Kansan just isn't giving the campus good coverage."
Each campus group is seeking publicity and the Daily Kansan editors have to decide which stories have the most news value, Patricia Penney, the Daily Kansan managing editor explained.
"I think the Kansan has improved greatly during the past year." Dean Paul B. Lawson of the College, said, "but it should keep in mind its community responsibility."
"I have worked with metropolitan papers, Mrs. Christina Alford, Y.W.C.A. secretary, added, "and have never seen a paper so hardboiled about printing news of community interest such as the Red Cross and War Memorial campaigns."
"The all day conference was sponsored by Mortar Board and Sachem senior honor societies. The day began with an introduction by Clyde Jacobs, moderator, and continued with the discussion of the "Objectives of a Liberal Education", "Activities," and the "Counselling System." After lunch at 12:30 p.m. come the discussion of "Campus Governing bodies". "Curriculum Changes", and evaluation of the conference by Chancellor Deane W. Malott and Frances James, Mortar Board.
During the discussion of activities, it was recommended that no credit would be given for any activity, but that a record of each students activities would be kept with the student's transcript.
In the discussion of the counseling system the plan of having upper classmen as freshmen counselors was approved. Concerning the problem of a campus placement bureau, Chancellor Malott said, "There will be further consideration of this project, because of the student interest shown here today."
An A.S.C.-faculty senate organization with equal representation from both groups formed to handle emergency matters and to make suggestions to both groups was discussed in campus governing bodies.
The Curriculum committee suggested that "the foreign language requirement be changed so that less stress be placed on grammar and more on the study of the economic systems and culture of the foreign countries."
"Subjects should be more practical and less theoretical," the committee stated. "The proposed course in human relations, a two hour course to be required for all students, would teach us more about the affairs of the world."
"We at the University must continue to reach out, experiment, and discuss, if we are to solve the problems facing us," said Chancellor Deane W. Malott in his evaluation of the conference.
Kids Tear Up Butte
Butte, Mont. (UP)—Police were alerted today to prevent further vandalism and rioting by gangs of teen-aged hoodlums which has resulted in serious injury to two youths and thousands of dollars worth of damage to homes.
The disturbances were connected, authorities believed, to the six-day strike by the CIO Mine, Mill, and Smeltermen's union.
Baseball Game Postponed
The K.U-Kansas State baseball game scheduled for this afternoon has been postponed indefinitely, Coach "Red" Dugan said today.
Packers Will Be Investigated
Washington. (UP)—The Justice department joined in the government's fight against black market meat operators today by opening an investigation of reports that many packers have been making false subsidy claims.
Mott Endorses A.S.C. Recreation Farm Plan
Gayle Mott, equitation instructor, said today he would be willing to operate concessions on the proposed University recreation farm, as discussed in the All-Student Council meeting Tuesday.
Mr. Mott said he believed the four recreational possibilities for the farm—barn dancing, a golf driving range, picnic grounds, and bridle paths would work satisfactorily.
"All the barn needs is a good cleaning up and a dance could be given there the next day. The whole set up is a natural. The grounds are nice for general hiking, and as for a driving range, it just needs a little mowing down there. There's a bigger demand for recreation now than ever before, and if the students want this recreation and the University gives its O.K., then things could get underway soon." Mott said.
"I'm ready to start tomorrow," he added.
Mr. Mott also suggested that the barn with a nickelodian be used for short parties, and said he was confident that, with student help, the farm could be a success.
K.U. Delegates Back From Union Meeting
Problems of running Union buildings were discussed by delegates from 30 universities at the national convention of Union Building association members last week at the University of Minnesota.
Among problems discussed were operational difficulties, student organization, food services, lack of meeting rooms, the Union's responsibility in helping to draw the returning veteran into school activities and the relation between the Union director and the student board.
The famous Rock Chalk yell, "Tm a Jayhawk" and the "Crimson and the Blue" were led by Alberta Cornwell and Joan Woodward during a presentation of different universities songs and cheers.
Other delegates from the University were Byron Shutz, Dean Henry Werner, and Billie Marie Hamilton.
Carey Pottery Pieces On Display in Tulsa
Sheldon Carey, ceramics professor at the University, has a collection of pottery on display in three galleries of the Philbrook Art Center in Tula, Okla., Bernard Frazier, art director of the center and former member of the department of design at KU. said today.
Vases which are unique in their form and decoration, comprise most of the 18-piece collection. One of the pieces was displayed at the Golden Gate Exposition held at San Francisco in 1939.
Cleveland. (UP)—Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower solemnly raised his coffee cup as 1,200 people drank a toast to him at a banquet.
Painted on the general's cup in bright blue was a rope-tenwined anchor and the letters "USN."
Then the crowd burst into a laugh.

Reiters Never Put Bananas In The Refrigerator—No, No, No
The papaw and orchid plants are both bearing now. Four papaya (they taste like cantelope) are on the only full-grown papaw, and the orchid collection boasts two flowers.
By EDWARD SWAIN
(Daily Kansan Staff Writer)
"Company for them would be nics," Mrs. Reiter says, but when the mates for both birds died not long ago, nobody knew which mate had survived."
Bananas, orchids, papaws, bread.
fruit—
Sounds tropical, doesn't it? But they're growing here on the campus.
The banana trees touching the top of the greenhouse have two bunches of bananas, one green, the other greener. They do ripen, though, and if you know the right people or have breakfast with the chancellor, you may get a few sliced with cereal.
The tropical atmosphere is made complete by an aviary containing parakeets, society finches, canaries, one dove, and one cockateel. The cockateel and dove present a problem. They get lonesome.
Mr. and Mrs. James Reiter, in charge of the greenhouse, say that visitors like the tropical greenhouse best, because it is different.
It's all part of the three greenhouses the University maintains behind Fowler shops. One, the Building and Grounds greenhouse, is for plain flowers like petunias, another is the botany greenhouse, now unused, and the third is the tropical greenhouse.
Orchids do a lot of blooming in October, and some in July and August, according to Mrs. Reiter.
If your date wants orchids, and you are a fast taker or a good glass cutter, you might be able to give her white, deep purple, or lavender blossoms, after they have bloomed. And the brooch fruit tree?
It's big and healthy looking, but—no bread.
Franco Puts Controls On German Firms
London. (UP)—The Franco regime today announced strict financial controls on German firms operating on Spanish soil, apparently to appease United Nations criticism, as London Communists claimed that German atomic scientists are working in a village five miles from Bilbao.

A.V.C. To Hear Gibson At Meeting Tomorrow
Prof. Hilden Gibson will speak on "The A.V.C. Comes to the Hill" at a meeting of the American Veterans committee at 4:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Kansas room of the Union.
At the meeting a vote will be taken to determine opinion on the proposed extension of the draft that is now being discussed in Washington. A resolution embodying the chapter's wishes will be sent to the A.V.C. planning committee at national headquarters in New York. Similar decisions are being made in other A.V.C. bodies and the consensus of the local groups all over the country will consequently become national A.V.C. policy. Copies of the resolution also will be sent to Kansas congressmen and to the chairmen of both the senate and the House Military Affairs committee.
The organizational committee will offer for discussion, amendment and approval a statement of intentions defining and explaining the policies of the University chapter. This prospectus will eventually become a part of the campus A.V.C. constitution.
Because so many veteran's organiz- zations, unlike the A.V.C., will not accept merchant marine vets into their membership, former seamen are especially invited to tomorrow's meeting.
500 Senior Boy Scouts Will Visit Here Saturday
five hundred Boy Scouts from eastern Kansas will tour the campus Saturday as guests of Lambda chapter of Alpha Phi Omega, national service fraternity of the Boy Scouts of America.
Here for Senior Scout Conference day, they will attend the Kansas Relays, and see demonstrations and exhibitions arranged by the School of Engineering and Architecture, the departments of chemistry and entomology, and Dyche museum of natural history.

Truman Signs Anti-Petrillo Bill
Washington, (UP)—President Trump today signed a bill designed to prevent James C. Petrillo, president of the American Federation of Musicians, from coercing broadcasters in labor matters.
The new law provides penalties for anyone found guilty of forcing radio stations to hire more persons than needed for broadcasts.
Washington. (UP)—Estimates that the coming atomic bomb tests will cost the United States $525,000,000 were described as "gross exaggerations" today by Vice Adm. W. H. P. Blandy.
He said the cost would be "only a few per cent of the annual naval appropriations and will probably not exceed the total cost of one large new ship."
Railroaders Schedule R.I. Strike Tomorrow
Kansas City, Mo. (UP)—Some 2,500 members of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen have scheduled a strike against the Rock Island railroad tomorrow, J. A. Coleman, chairman of the Union's grievance committee, said today.
Under the Railway Labor Act, President Truman may appoint a fact-finding board to inquire into the dispute. Appointment of such a board usually delays a strike at least 30 days.
Washington. (UP)—The American Red Cross and the AFL and CIO special Red Cross relief committees will end their controversial wartime fund raising arrangement on April 30.
Washington, (UP)—The most far-reaching housing program ever considered by congress went to the house today with senate approval.
The measure was intended to encourage construction of 15 million new farm and city homes in the next 10 years.
Rome. (UP)—Rome's Easter preparations were not affected noticeably today by a widely-publicized prediction that Christ will return to earth Saturday and address Romans from a balcony on the ancient Appian way.
Chungking. (UP)—Chinese Communist troops smashed into Changchun yesterday and engaged a handful of Nationalist troops in house-to-house fighting, the Central News agency reported today.
Chinese Troops Fight In Changchun Streets
A spokesman for the National Military council said a peace preservation corps and the small government force still held the Manchurian capital late today.
Washington. (UP) — The House backed up its UnAmerican Activities committee today and voted to press contempt charges against the executive secretary and 16 members of the executive board of the joint anti-Fascist refugee committee of New York.
Washington, (UP)—A Texas meat packer blamed OPA regulations today for a growing shortage of insulin and other medicinal preparations which are produced by by-products of cattle-slaughter.
C. L. Childress said legitimate meat slaughterers, who normally save livestock glands that yield such extracts, were finding if virtually impossible to continue operations under recent OPA price regulations.
UN Postpones Iran Showdown On 'Illegal' Angle
New York. (UP) — The United Nations Security council agreed without objection today to postpone a showdown on the Iranian case after Secretary General Tryge Lle suggested that the Anglo-American attempt to keep the Iranian case on the agenda over Russia's objections might be illegal.
The new snarl in the Iranian case came after U.S. delegate Edward R. Stettinius, Jr., answering Russia's questioning of American motives, indirectly accused the Soviet Union of using her troops in Iran to get Iran's last minute withdrawal of her case before the Security council.
Poland, France, and Russia immediately claimed that no vote on Russia's demand for withdrawal of the Iranian case could be taken until the experts report on the legal issue Thursday.
Lie's memorandum contended that the only way the council could retain a case over objections of both parties would be through voting an investigation of the situation.
French delegate Henry Bonnet also introduced a draft resolution for disposing of the Iranian case. He had suggested that it be dropped from the agenda as requested by Russia and Iran and to Lie to report back when Russian troops save left Iran.
Stettinius said that the council could not ignore the fact that the sudden reversal of the Iranian government's position yesterday took place while Russian troops were still in Iran.
In Tehran, Iranian sources contended that Premier Ahmed Ghavam ordered the Iranian complaint against Russia withdrawn from the United Nations Security council because Soviet Ambassador Ivan Sadchikov told him that Russia would feel "insulted" unless Iran ordered Rina Ala to withdraw his charges.

In Your Bonnet with Frills Upon It —'Braaaack! Say Campus Men
Off with the Easter bonnet!- them's the sentiments of most campus men.
Richard Sevier, exclaimed, "They all look like refugees from a chicken hatchery—the hats, that is!"
"Ha, that's a laugh," was the opinion of William Irwin.
"It's safer not to say anything," Jack Cousins muttered.
James Barr, looking at things from a different angle, laughed. "It what goes with the Easter bonnet that counts. Now take Easter nylons . . ."
With a sideglance at his wife, Dean Ostrum growled, "Hats are a crime against womanhood!"
Mike of the Pat and Mike Windsor combination said brightly, "I start with the hat, look down, and then back up. After that, I try to figure things out!"
on, but it wouldn't be so smart to give examples."
"Braaaaan," was the expressive answer of Dan Kreamer, who continued, "The relative merit of the Easter bonnet depends upon who it's
are examples.
Chester Dillon grumbled, "How do people make a living designing such things?"
"My gawd!" was all that Robert Thorpillh could utter.
"These women are just trying to attract attention," was the sage remark of James Topping.
John Conard smiled, "It's a great American institution, but sometimes I wonder if it’s worth all the time and money."
"As far as Easter goes, everybody needs church, not those hats!" Chauneye Veatch commented.
"I just love hats," was the unusual answer given by Joseph E. Brown, Jr.
Ralph Fleagle paternally explained, "Children have their Easter bunnies and colored eggs, and the rest of us have to have something to laugh about. So hooray for the Easter bonnet."

The A.V.C. Comes to K.U.
The formation of the K.U. chapter of the American Veterans Committee brings a new veterans' voice to the Hill. Headed by Russell Barrett, College senior, it is one of hundreds of campus chapters throughout the country.
The AVC is a fairly new organization, being born out of World War II. It was founded in 1943 when a corporal and a group of his friends in the service began exchanging ideas on how to provide the peace, jobs, and freedom they and their comrades were earning on the battlefields.
It is a group of young men that feel the veterans of World War II through their experiences have gained a new perspective and they desire to express it without interference from older and in some ways outdated veterans bodies. Its membership includes Harold Stassen, Bill Mauldin, Col. Evans F. Carlson, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr., Will Rogers Jr., George "Sad Sack" Baker, Richard Tregaskis, Barney Ross, and Merle Miller.
What is the AVC fighting for? Its statement of principles seems commendable. Among other things it is plugging for: a job for every veteran, under a system of private enterprise in which business, labor, agriculture, and government work together to provide full employment and full production for the nation; adequate financial, medical, vocational, and educational assistance for every veteran; thorough social and economic security; free speech, press, worship, assembly, and ballot; establishment of an international veterans council for the furtherance of world peace and justice among all nations; and above all, active participation of the United States in the United Nations to stop any threat of aggression and to promote social and economic measures which will remove the causes of war. At a time when many fly-by-night veterans groups are being formed, it is reassuring to find one with the motto "Citizens First—Veterans Second."
The AVC already has several notable accomplishments. It sent the only veterans delegation to the United Nations' San Francisco conference in 1945. It proposed and got an amendment to the GI Bill of Rights liberalizing farm loans and increasing payments to vets going to school. It pointed out shortcomings in the Veterans Administration and saw those faults corrected in some cases. It fought for the Wyatt Emergency Housing plan while some veterans organizations stood by twiddling their thumbs.
The KVA is already established on the campus but the appearance of this new group should provide no arena for conflict between the two bodies. Certainly that is not the wish of either organization. Since the two associations are organized on different campus lists, many of the Jayhawker vets will want to belong to both organizations.
What the K.U. chapter of the American Veterans Committee will accomplish in the matter of Hill problems remains to be seen. No one will deny that there are plenty of perplexing problems for this new group to tackle—J.C.

THE MOST HONORED
WATCH ON THE

By JOAN HARRIS
Famous first words—While snapping shots for "life" on D-day, Mark Kauffman lined up a group of girls for "atmosphere" pix. Upon spotting Joan Joseph clad in shorts, he raised an eyebrow and said, "That's a good-looking girl—cute face, too."
Everyone appreciated Chancellor Malott's sage remark that Harold Urey, whose wife is a former Jayhawker, has K.U. for his alma "mater-in-law."
What'll ya' have?—Sig Ep's revived an old ya' tradition at their hay-ride rack Saturday night by selecting a "Hobble Bobble" queen. Dates were requested to stroll slowly around the bonfire, turning on all the old southern charm. For having all the qualifications plus being a strawberry blonde, Betty Emigh, SK, was winner. By way of booty, she was given her choice of ten-dozen toasted marshmallows or a shot of firewater.
Daaaa—An important point confronted the psych class and Dr. Coleman requested that each student keep his attention strictly within the windows. After stating the issue, he proceeded to give examples and explanations, drawing numerous diagrams on the board. Just before the whistle blew, LaVerne Keeven, Corbinite, waved her hand and said, "Dr. Coleman, what was it you said was so important at the first of the hour?"
Wallflowers—Fifi's got around the no-out-of-town parties ruling by having members of the highway patrol escort them to Topeka for an affair at the Jayhawk hotel Saturday night. There they held a big banquet with cigars and gardenias for after-dinner favors. The only blight of the evening was that many of the 17-year-old rushes present, who also received cigars, were too sick to participate in the dance which followed.

In the spring a young man's (or maid's) fancy often is diverted from more interesting pursuits by a disressing skin irritation acquired on hat last moonlight picnic.
Poison-ivy - Rhus toxicodendron —commonly grows as a low shrub. Sometimes it attains a luscious growth of six or eight feet like the specimens along the playing field fences on Mississippi Street. Occasionally it winds up a tree, its three-bladed glossy leaves, turning to reds and yellow in the fall, making a beautiful vine.
By R. I. CANUTESON, M.D.
(Director, University Health Service)
Not all persons are sensitive to the plant, but to those who are poisony is a far worse summer hazard than chiggers.
Local history recalls cases where the brilliantly colored foliage was used as house or table decorations, to the later distress of some of the vestests.
Contact with the bruised plant produces in sensitive persons a red itching eruption in a few days. Later, vesicles or water blisters appear. These break and crusting follows. All this time, itching is a distressing symptom, and it is aggravated by contact with clothes or by warmth. Treatment runs the gamut of a hundred remedies—each a sure-cure for its advocate—but none is specific. Attention is directed toward keeping the victim as comfortable as possible by the use of a variety of rather simple remedies.
The affliction runs a course of 40 to 15 days, regardless of treatment.
Prevention is the prime factor. Learn to recognize the plant. A specimen is on display at Watkins Hospital. Know where it commonly grows and how to avoid contamination by it. Indirect contact with oil from the plant through a golf or tennis ball retrieved from a patch of weeds, contaminated shoes or firewood, or a friend who has the affliction may produce poison-ivy dermatitis.

If you think you have come in contact with poison-ivy, first wash the hands thoroughly using plenty of soap. Then wash the face and then take a complete bath. This procedure avoids contaminating the whole body with the plant oil that may be on the hands.
Don't foolishly try to find out whether you are sensitive to the plant. You may not be on the first contact but will develop sensitivity upon repeated contact.
And if you are one of the unfortunate sensitive individuals, stay in the beaten paths—especially after dark.

SPOTLIGHT
ON SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
Jim Reed, Topeka Daily Capital sports editor, has cut loose a high-powered criticism of the football situation here at K.U. It wasn't directed at the coaches or athletic department, but at the students. Here is what he said:
"Sauer is faced with the apathetic interest in football displayed by the student body. With nearly 5,000 students enrolled atop Mt. Oread, only fifty men are willing to make the sacrifices necessary to become good football players.
"During early drills, a number of the husky lads丹ned suits with the thought in mind of practicing football two nights a week, and spending the other five evenings at social engagements. Other promising candidates decide to wait until autumn before reporting on the gridiron.
* *
"That method of practice was entirely new to George Sauer. He did not become an all-American by practicing two nights a week. So, George cracked the discipline whip.
"If anyone can give U. of Kansas a winning football team, it's Ernie Quigley and George Sauer. But one man cannot a mighty nation mold, nor can two a winning grid team unfold. It appears to me that football's destiny down the Kaw is now squarely in the lap of the student body.
"If the students continue their country club attitude, KU, will continue as a Big Six football doormat. My students are willing to forsake litter-bugging and its accessories, and co-operate with the present athletic regime, Kansas can field a football team that won't embarrass the school every Saturday afternoon."
George Sauer faces much the same problem here that his former coach, Dana X. Bible, faced when he went to Texas university. The student body showed the same lackadaisical attitude that is, and has been for several years, prevalent on the K.U. campus.
It took Bible five years to build a winning team at Texas, and my guess is that it will take George Sauer from three to five years to put Kansas on the football map in the Big Six. It is a big problem, and it can't be solved over night.
Jim Reed has pretty well figured out the biggest difficulty with Jayhawkier gridiron teams, but there are a few things he has overlooked.
Other schools, some openly and some behind closed doors, have obtained football players by subsidizing. Kansas has refused to be a party to such actions, and thereby has missed getting some outstanding Kansas athletes. Perhaps this is one reason K.U. has not fared so well on the gridiron.
***
There is no doubt in my mind that Mr. Reed has hit at the core of Sauer's biggest problem. But there's more to it than meets the human eye. It is definitely up to the students under the present set-up to see that this "apathetic attitude" situation is remedied.
A coach can't build a winning team unless he has the talent and co-operation of that talent.

No Need to Fear, Fair Maider The Wolf Is a Marked Man
Students with wolfish tendencies, both male and female, are helped along in their prowling by the new Student Directory Supplement which not only gives the names of all students enrolled since the September registration but marks with asterisks all students who already have found a mate.
The new "protective" supplement is available to all students at the registrar's office, Miss Mare Ruble, assistant registrar, announced today. In addition to the listing of new students, the supplement has a revised list of the faculty.
Summer School Dates Revised
Dates for the 1946 summer session here have been revised from June 18-August 10, to June 24-August 17 because of the increasing number of new students desiring to enroll, Dean George B. Smith, director, announced today.
Orientation for all new undergraduate students will be June 18, 19, and 20; registration, June 20; registration and enrollment, June 21 and 22.
This will allow for an orientation and advisement period during the first week, he said.
Classes will begin on Monday. June 24, and final examinations will be held on Aug. 15, 16, or 17, depending on the days individual classes end.
Only holiday during the summer session will be July 4.
The most extensive program of courses ever offered in summer session by the University will be available for all students to be offered in all of the ring schools.
Closing hours have been advanced from 10:30 to 11 p.m. tomorrow night because of the A.A.U.W. fun fest, Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, dean of women, has announced.
It has not been necessary to invoke the priority plan recently announced for admission to the summer session, James K. Hitt, registrar, said, but application for admission to the summer term should be sent to the registrar immediately, he urged.
Housing facilities for single students are adequate for the session, according to the housing office, but housing for married students, particularly those with children remains critical. Married student veterans can be housed at Sunflower Village, but there is a scarcity at present of three and four-room units.
Wesley Elliott, K.U. Negro, did not participate in the Kansas Relays, Saturday, because of a Big Six ruling against Negro participation, E. C. Quigley, athletic director, has said.
Elliott Was Ineligible For Kansas Relays

Contributions totaling $148 have been received in the faculty cancer drive, Ogden Jones, campus chairman, said today.
sait.
Kansas Relays rules stipulate that participants must be eligible in their own conference to enter the relays.

In a report of the smoking committee, Emily Hollis, chairman, said there had been fewer complaints about smoking in lobbies of buildings, but the basement of Frank Strong hall was still littered with cigarette stubs. Miss Hollis said C. G. Bayles, superintendent of buildings and grounds, said a worker had been appointed to clean the building entrance.
Baseball games with the University of Oklahoma scheduled for this afternoon have been cancelled, Coach "Red" Dugan said today.

Stadium Dorm To Be Ready for Next Fall
Contracts totalling $53,704 have been let for dormitory facilities for 64 men students in the east side of the University memorial stadium, according to George M. Beal, professor of architecture. The units will be ready for occupancy for the fall semester, according to present plans.
Rooms for four dormitory groups of 16 students each, and two large recreation rooms will be built. Each 16-man unit will have rooms for sleeping, dressing, study, and a washroom and clubroom.
Meals will not be served in the dormitory. Facilities for ping-pong, cards, and other activities will be available in the recreation rooms. A typing room, removed from the study and sleeping rooms, will be provided.
Entrance to the new stadium units will be through what are now arches on the east side. This will not affect the basic structure of the stadium, Professor Beal said. An exterior doorway and windows are included
The new structure will be semifireproof concrete blocks. An apartment for a supervisor and his family will be constructed in the northeast corner of the development, he added
Storer Views Heavenly Bodies Stars, That Is—From 'Penthouse'
If you're going to sit outside these spring nights watching the sky anyway, you ought to know something about heavenly bodies—stars, that is—not to mention planets and comets and constellations.
and conservation.
K. U.'s astronomer, Prof. N. W.
Storer, is giving a series of weekly talks over station K.F.K.U. at 9:45 p.m. each Tuesday on the appearance of the stars.
His talks center on "things in the sky which may be seen with the naked eye on the night of the broadcast and changes which will occur during the following week," he said.
Recent success of radar men in recording an "echo" from a radio impulse sent to the moon won't aid astronomers in their gigantic measuring tasks, he said.
"We know the distance to the moon now probably within a mile," the professor said, "There is little possibility of more accurate measurement with radio waves."
might say, of course, that the radar test is the first direct evidence we astronomers have that there actually is a moon. However, it wasn't a great surprise to us."
At one time, he held the distinction of being the only faculty member to occupy a complete building by himself, but his small observatory was torn down in 1944. Now his office and observatory are located in the "penthouse" of Lindley hall.
he added, with a smile: "You
Professor Storer combined a mechanical touch with his star study in 1941, when he developed an aid to celestial navigation for high-altitude planes. He also designed a miniature planetarium for use by astronomy students.
Professor Storer came to the University in 1935. He has taught astronomy at various other schools, among them Smith college, Columbia, and Illinois, and holds a doctor of philosophy degree from the University of California.
Justice Stone Funeral Thursday In Washington
(By United Press)
"The death of Chief Justice Stone is a previous loss to the country." President Truman said. "He was a great justice and a great American."
Funeral services for Chief Justice Harlan F. Stone, 73, will be held at 2 p.m. Thursday at the Episcopal National cathedral. Burial will be in Washington at a private service.
Mr. Stone, who died of a cerebral hemorrhage at 6.45 p.m. yesterday, was the last man on the Supreme court bench who was there in the fight by President Roosevelt to reorganize the high tribunal in 1927.
Hugo Black, the senior associate justice, becomes presiding judge until a new chief justice is nominated by the president and confirmed by the senate. He will call the court to order at noon today to announce an adjournment until after Stone's funeral.
As the capital mourned the unexpected death of the famed jurist, the names of associate justices Robert H. Jackson and Stanley F. Reed, both liberal Democrats, were ranked at the top of the list of possible successors to the chief justiceship.
President Coolidge appointed Stone to the court in 1925, and President Roosevelt promoted him to chief justice of the United States when Charles Evans Hughes retired in 1941.
1941.
Stone, known as a great disenter, appeared well when he read his last court decision—a dissent. The square shouldered chief justice read griffy for 15 minutes. Then he picked up what appeared to be a letter instead of a legal document. He fumbled with it an instant, then turned to confer with Justices Black and Reed. The court crier, sensing something was wrong, stepped forward. Black, as ranking associate justice, nodded for the end of the court session. He and Reed helped Stone leave the chamber through the red velvet curtains behind the bench.
Mrs. Stone went to the court to drive the chief justice home in their automobile at 3:30 p.m. His alient at first thought to be a slight attack of indigestion, appeared more serious at that time, and his two sons were summoned to the home. He died three hours and 15 minutes later.
More than $300,000 of the $500,000 quota has been pledged by K.U. alumni groups for the World War II Memorial, Kenneth Fleshtlewhite, director of the Memorial drive campaign, announced today. About $40,000 of this figure has already been raised, he added.
Alumni To Contribute $300,000 to Drive
The Lawrence drive, which began April 3, has raised about half of its $50.000 quota. A Topeka drive for $25.000 will begin tomorrow.

Cancer And The Atom
During April the American Cancer Society is endeavoring to raise a fund of 12 million dollars to fight a disease that takes more lives each year than any other disease, except those of the heart.
Today, approximately 17 million Americans are destined to die of cancer unless we can do something to prevent it. Between Pearl Harbor and V-J day cancer killed twice as many persons as were lost on the battlefields.
Those facts should make us very concerned about what can be done to conquer this disease. The funds collected in this drive are to be used for education of the public about cancer so that cases may be detected in their early stage; for the establishment of more cancer clinics; and for research directed at eventual control of cancer. Sixty per cent of the funds contributed will be devoted to local use and the other forty per cent will be used by the national society for research.
One of the most effective means of treating cancer is by the use of radium. But this treatment is extremely costly since radium is worth approximately $25,000 a gram. As a result, many victims deprive themselves of this treatment until it is too late and many hospitals are unable to equip themselves for cancer treatment.
In dealing with an enemy as strong as cancer we must use every means at our disposal to bring us nearer success. Now we are passing up one method of combating cancer. There is now a source of treatment that it is expected would cut the present radium treatment cost to one-tenth what it is today.
In the process of atomic bomb research radioactive by-products are produced. These products can be effectively used as radium is today for cancer treatment. Dr. David Hume of the department of chemistry, who worked on atomic research at Oak Ridge, Tenn., estimates that more of this by-product has already been produced than our total supply of radium has ever been or will ever be.
Of course, not all cancer cases can be given the radioactive treatment. But with the menace what it is today, any method of treatment should be exploited to its limit.
However, the tragic part is that under the exigencies of war there was little effort to preserve it or devote it to proper use and now it is almost irretrievably lost. But at least we now kniw what can be done.
This is one more reason why it is highly important that we devise a proper program of atomic energy control soon so that research and developments for the good of mankind will not be throttled.

How to Stay Out of the Hospital
PETER BURRICK
.
By R. I. CANUTESON, M.D.
(Director, University Health Service)
The little things in life are responsible for many discomforts and aching feet are no exception. A weak arch or painful callous can change an entire personality.
Commonest foot troubles are due to weak arches, either the longitudinal arch or the transverse arch which really isn't an arch at all; callouses or "stone bruises" on the bottom of the foot; and the ordinary corn.
Many people come equipped with weak feet; others acquire fat painful arches from improperly fitted shoes, too high heels and aversion to exercising the feet. But no one is born with corns or callouses. They are the products of wearing shoes.
As a rule, the first pair of shoes put on a child has the correct lines for the normal shape of his foot. By the time he is old enough to walk, shoe styles are based on the vague ideas of the designers rather than on human anatomy. The toes are crowded producing corn at points of pressure over the toe joints. The transverse arch is squeezed and rounded and callouses form. High heels cause the foot to "pronate" (turn inward), the long arch weakens, and body weight falls forward on the all ready pinched transverse arch.
Expert Shoe Repairing
One of the most sensible fashions ever inaugurated was the wearing of low heels by women. As a result fewer college women than men have painful feet. One of the best things that has happened to many men was a pair of G.J shoes.
A flat weak arch isn't improved by an arch support. Quite the contrary. Foot exercise is restricted and the arch becomes weaker.
Feet don't become flat by walking on them — unless the load is too heavy. Weak feet, not result of congenital development, can be greatly relieved by the simple expedient of properly fitted shoes, foot exercises that can be done in the evening while you are studying, sometimes elevation of the inside of the heel, and walking with toes straight ahead or a little pigeon-toe.
And the corn's and callouses? Again properly fitted shoes, and relief of pressure by means of pads—not the all-purpose drugsstore type—but pads fitted to your needs, and gradual removal of the thick skin that forms the corn or callous.
So when the first hot summer days come and your dogs ache, heed their complaints. You can't be happy if your feet hurt.
Morriss, and Mr. and Mrs. John Blair.

Published in Lawrence, Kan., every afternoon during the school week except holidays and Sundays, University holidays and examination periods.

Cancer And The Atom
Today, approximately 17 million Americans are destined to die of cancer unless we can do something to prevent it. Between Pearl Harbor and V-J day cancer killed twice as many persons as were lost on the battlefields.
Those facts should make us very concerned about what can be done to conquer this disease. The funds collected in this drive are to be used for education of the public about cancer so that cases may be detected in their early stage; for the establishment of more cancer clinics; and for research directed at eventual control of cancer. Sixty per cent of the funds contributed will be devoted to local use and the other forty per cent will be used by the national society for research.
One of the most effective means of treating cancer is by the use of radium. But this treatment is extremely costly since radium is worth approximately $25,000 a gram. As a result, many victims deprive themselves of this treatment until it is too late and many hospitals are unable to equip themselves for cancer treatment.
In the process of atomic bomb research radioactive by-products are produced. These products can be effectively used as radium is today for cancer treatment. Dr. David Hume of the department of chemistry, who worked on atomic research at Oak Ridge, Tenn., estimates that more of this by-product has already been produced than our total supply of radium has ever been or will ever be.
In dealing with an enemy as strong as cancer we must use every means at our disposal to bring us nearer success. Now we are passing up one method of combating cancer. There is now a source of treatment that it is expected would cut the present radium treatment cost to one-tenth what it is today.
However, the tragic part is that under the exigencies of war there was little effort to preserve it or devote it to proper use and now it is almost irretrievably lost. But at least we now kniw what can be done.
Of course, not all cancer cases can be given the radioactive treatment. But with the menace what it is today, any method of treatment should be exploited to its limit.
This is one more reason why it is highly important that we devise a proper program of atomic energy control soon so that research and developments for the good of mankind will not be throttled.

SPOTLIGHT
ON SPORTS
Harrison Dillard, ace Negro hurdler from Baldwin-Wallace college, lived up to all advance notices concerning his ability when he won the high hurdles at the Kansas Relays Saturday.
Dillard tied the Relays mark set by Fred Wolcott of Rice by scooting home in 14.2 seconds. Dillard out-distanced the second place winner by 10 vards.
Bill Mack, Drake's sensational young miler, came through as predicted to win the Glenn Cunningham mile with a 4:24.2 mark which compares favorably with Cunningham's own times in the Relays. The Drake ace has a brilliant future ahead and may some day be the first man to run a four minute mile.
Tom Schofield had three chances to establish a new Relays high jump record. On his second try the Jayhawkers' ace high jump artist cleared the bar, but his trailing foot touched it and knocked the bar off. Scofield has another year of competition and may set a new mark next year.
***
Sidelights at the Relays--Charlie Black. Jayhawker All-American basketballer, vaulted 12 feet 6 inches to tie for second place. "The Hawk" has been out for track only two weeks, and this makes his mark even more creditable. . . . Hal Moore trailed Bill Mack by 20 yards to take second place in the Glenn Cunningham mile. This was Moore's first outdoor appearance this year. . . . The Jayhawker victory in the university two-mile relay was an upset. Missouri was leading by about four yards when Chromister collapsed 30 yards from the finish, and Hinchee drove on to win for Kansas.
Punahou, the Hawaiian entry, drew a big hand from the audience. The crowd also laughed and whistled when two members of the team presented gifts to the Relays queen, Carolyn Campbell, and then proceeded to kiss her. .Among the honored guests were Dr. John Outland, Father of the Kansas Relays, and Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, the founder of the Relays. .Karl Ebel, Jayhawker spear hurler, heaved the javelin 193 feet 9 3/4 inches to take third place. This is Ebel's best mark, but he may get up to 200 feet before the season closes . . .
Schaake Appointed Williamette Coach
Elmer Schaake, assistant football coach at the University for two years, has been appointed head basketball coach and assistant football mentor at Williamette University. Salem, Ore.
Mr. Schaake resigned from the K.U. faculty last spring to accept a position at Dinuba Calif. High school. His new contract becomes effective July 1.

The Kansas Jayhawkers took two firsts, one second, two thirds, and tied for a secondand a fourth to rank with Colorado, Drake, and Texas at the top of the university division of the Kansas Relays Saturday. Approximately 600 athletes competed in the Relays.
Weather conditions were perfect, and 5,000 fans were on hand for the 21st annual running of the Kansas carnival, the first since 1942. The record in the Kansas City, Mo., high school relay event was the only mark to fall. Southwest High school clipped 9. of a second from the old record. Harrison Dillard of Baldwin-Wallace college tied the high hurdles record of 14.2 seconds which was established by Fred Wolcott of Rice in 1938.
Tom Scofield won the high jump for the Jayhawkers with a leap of 6 ft. 5/78 inches. The Kansas twomile relay team scored an upset to win that event. Hal Moore took second in the Glenn Cunningham mile run. Leroy Robison captured third place in the shot put with a heave of 45 feet 8/78 inches, and Kansas' sprint medley relay team also won third place.
Charlie Black, versatile Jayhawker star, tied for second place in the pole vault with a leap of 12 feet 6 inches, and Bob Stoland tied for fourth place in the high jump with a 6 ft. jump.

Fascist March On Milan Feared After Theft of Mussolini's Body
Milan. (UP) — Italian police blocked all roads into Milan today to prevent a Fascist march on the city inspired by the theft of Benito Mussolini's body and claims that a fight against Communism has begun in Il Duce's name.
A fiery manifesto circulated by the "Fascist Democratic party," proclaiming, a fight against the "Red parasites" regardless of the cost, prompted precautions against an outbreak of violence.
The manifesto, smacking of the blood and mysticism used by Mussolini in his heydey, was circulated among newspapers and reached police. It said the Fascist Democratic party" was obliged to begin the struggle "against those henchmen of Red violence" to compel the free expression of the popular majority.
"Finally, O Duce, you are with us. You will always be for us that light which we will look to as the sun. The sun has returned to shine on your forehead. We will surround
Authors of the manifesto claimed that the grave robbers escaped with the complete body, although reports circulated that a decomposed part of one leg had been left in the grave. The graveside note, found in a sealed envelope, said:
you with roses but the perfume of your virtues will be stronger than roses. Duce, we will fight in your name, teaching ourselves the way."
The body was removed by four men, using ordinary garden spades. They dug up the body nad placed it in a wheelbarrow, trundling it over to a nearby fountain. The number of men involved was established by their footprints in the soft earth, police said.
The spades and the wheelbarrow were part of the cemetery's equipment. It was believed that the men washed Mussolini's corpse and wrapped it in a sheet before taking it away.
In Rome, 30 armed policemen were posted in the Piazza Venezuela to prevent any Fascist demonstrations. The guards reported everything calm beneath the dictator's old balcony.
The manifesto contained messages venerating Mussolini similar to those in the note found at the grave.
"Let us gather up that body, let us drink deeply of that light," it said. "The day will come when, our land purified of Red parasites, the flame spirit will again be able to break forth invincible and in fiery triumph against all materialism and all weakness."
Irene Cebula, graduate student, and Alvaro Chavaria, College freshman, will dance a rumba, and Bolivar Marquez, College senior, will sing Spanish songs at the Fun Fest to be held from 8 until 11 tonight at the Lawrence Community building.

Advocating a policy change which will permit Negro participation in Big Six athletics, the A.S.C. committee investigating conference athletic rulings will apaley directly to the Big Six schools, George Caldwell, committee chairman, said today.
A.S.C. To Take Matter Of Negro Participation To Big Six Schools
Other members of the committee are Wendell Nickell, Mary Jane Zollinger, and Carolyn Nigg.
Caldwell said that the decision to work through the Big Six association was strengthened after Wesley Elliott, Negro, was declared ineligible to participate in the Kansas Relays Saturday because of conference policy.
The committee will meet soon to decide the "plan of attack," Caldwell stated. He added that communication with the other schools probably will be directed at an asking student opinion against school discrimination. So did that the student council of the University of Nebraska and the officials of the University of Iowa have expressed opinions against racial discrimination.

Spain's 'Internal' Affairs
The Polish delegate to the U.N. Security Council has asked that body to investigate the activities of the Spanish government. He has charged that France's regime is engaged in activities that threaten world security. How this problem will be handled will establish an important precedent for the United Nations.
Secretary Byrnes has already said that he feels the security council has no real basis for going into Spain's internal affairs. He is of the opinion that it is a matter for the Spanish people to settle, saying that it is up to them to throw off the Franco dictatorship. He feels that at present the U.N. has no place in taking action on the Polish charges that Franco is massing troops on the French border and devising super weapons, probably based on atomic power.
This position is founded on the old principle of self-determination; the principle that nations have a right to their own form of government and that there should be no external interference in the internal activities of such governments.
In a larger, less integrated world this ideal had a plausible foundation but now the picture is changed. Today the world is a geographic, social, and economic interdependent whole. It must also become a political entity.
This does not mean that all governments must be identical but it does mean that there must be an authority above national governments that has the power to stamp out the seeds of war and aggression before an overt act is committed. The job of bringing about that unity is up to the U.N. But it cannot achieve that end if we continue to cling to the theory of self-determination and unrestricted nationalism.
The state department has proof that Franco was in active collaboration with Hitler. They likewise know that the Spanish government is the antithesis of the fundamentals of the U.N. If Poland can substantiate its charges against Spain, it is the responsibility of the Security Council to investigate fully the conditions in that country and take appropriate action.
There can be no assurance of peace if governments are allowed to build the foundations for aggression behind the cloak of nationalistic self-determination. The time has come when nations no longer have the sacred right to do as they please within their borders when those activities are contrary to the welfare of other nations and the world in general. There must be limitations on countries just as we limit the activities of our individual states for the common good.
The Security Council should take its stand on this issue now and show that the interdependency of the present world makes the principles of unrestricted nationalism and self-determination inconsistent with the aim of world peace and security.

Letters to the Editor
Mathematics club will meet at 4:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Pine room of the Union. Josephine Byerly will talk on "Number Theorems."
To the Daily Kansan: The editorial policy of the Daily Kansan in two recent issues (April 4 and 5) was so offensive that I hope you will excuse my including two criticisms in one letter.
Nickell Says Kansan Defends 'Childish Paddling'
Metallic currency in China is restricted almost entirely to pieces of 20 cents or less in value.
That letter was chopped into three pieces by the eager editor's insertions. Regardless of the arguments involved in the letter, this manner of treatment appears to be unjustified.
The first criticism is the treatment of the letter of George Caldwell in the April 4 issue.
I feel that the average reader remsts having anybody, editor or otherwise, abruptly interrupt such an article with interpolations and rebuttals. I am not acquainted with journalistic policy on this point. However, I cannot recall a single instance in which any other editor, Kansan or otherwise, has seen fit to treat his readers' letters in this way. The common, and most courteous, treatment seems to be the insertion of editor's notes after letters.
The second criticism of the editorial defense of the recent Interfraternity Council fiasco. Possibly the editor will object to the use of the word "defense," since he so painstakingly implied that his editorial was only an explanation. However, in reading this article, one gets the impression that the writer is taking a defensive stand and that he is effectively, if subtly, presenting the same feeble line given by other individuals concerned with the action.
I consider the Interfraternity council's action a "fasco" because it rescinded an intelligent, well met stand taken only three months ago. This stand, to eradicate the childish anties of paddling and so forth, was hailed on most sides as an enlightened Greek policy, and was met with sighs of relief from those who feared that such anties might prove a serious vulnerability to the fraternities, who were in the line of much criticism and discriminative action nationally.
Now that the storm has partially subsided, some of the die-hard Greek groups have succeeded in slipping in their favorite pastime of beating as one of the sanctioned rituals. They justify this, with the apparent concurrence of the Kansan, as a governmental measure to keep obstreperous members in tow. Isn't it odd that such methods should be applied to a group supposedly engaged in the serious pursuit of an education? A group, incidentally, with a large percentage of veterans in its membership.
The majority which supported this action was comfortably close. The obvious inference is that the Kansan is in the wrong boat, and that any defense of such a doubtful cause should have been made in a letter to the editor by one admitting his connection with the parties concerned.
★
As it is, not even a letter of criticism has been printed. They have been submitted. Odd, that a defense against such criticisms should be printed even before the criticisms are given voice.

No Place Like The Bug House---- Ask The Museum That Owns One
By NANCY JACK (Daily Kansan Staff Writer)
Enough furs to make several coats, a "blond" skunk, and thousands of birds, reptiles, and mammals are among the collections in Dyche museum.
The little-known third floor of the museum is divided into office space, a mammal gallery, a reptile room, a bird room, and a taxidermy room. Casual museum-goers seldom climb as high as the third floor, and research collections there are kept in light proof, mothproof, dustproof cases or preserved in jars of alcohol or formalin.
Furs valued at several thousand dollars are kept in a temperature-controlled, cork-walled room downstairs. They are tanned and include mink, red and grey fox, skunk, lynx, beaver, bear, coyote and deer and sea-lion hide.
Animals in the mammal room are stuffed and along with their skulls, classified and filed in the proper case. Everything from a Peromyscus (field mouse), to a coyote may be found on a rabbit's back, rabbits, chipmunks, weasels, mice, gophers, and many small rodents are included.
Lawrence Typewriter Exchange 735 MASS.
Snakes, salamanders, turtles, frogs fish and bones of these animals are preserved and classified in row after row of jars and cases in the reptile room. In this room also is the refrigerator in which students can keep specimens fresh until they are ready to work on them.
Birds occupy the south room on the third floor. They, like the mammals, are kept in airtight, lightproof cases. Although it is hard to obtain an American eagle because it is illegal to kill them, the Museum recently obtained one that was presumably killed by a power line. A library of books and periodicals on birds and nature lore shares one corner of this ornithology room, and heads of bear, moose, elk, deer, bighorn sheep, mountain goats, and buffalo are mounted on the ceiling beams.
Behind the reptile room is the taxidermy department. It is here that animals brought in are worked on and mounted. Tools and materials for the job line the walls, and workbenches, a drying cage, and cases of specimens fill the rest of the room.
Part of the department not housed in Dyche is the "bug room," which is in the physiology laboratory. Bones not too well cleaned are "thrown to the bugs," and when they get through, the bone is the only thing left.
Graduate students and majors in zoology choose particular problems to study, and through their findings and collections, the number of research specimens grows.
Specimens are given to the university by interested persons all over the country, and some are bought. The

other source of specimens is field trips. By trapping, shooting, or snaring, the dauntless zoology majors get their specimens.
All the rooms on the third floor of Dyche are large and well-lighted. Workbenches line the large windows and from the height of the third floor, the whole campus can be seen.

SPOTLIGHT
ON SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
One of the biggest problems Ernie Quigley faces in trying to put K.J. on the sports map is that of getting the co-operation of the students. It has always been a handicap, and it will continue to be until the students decide they want champions and take steps to produce them.
Students have been clamoring for a championship football team, but the turnout for spring drills showed that they aren't willing to work to build one. Out of the 110 men who checked out suits at the start of the drills, only 36 were present for the final scrimmage session. This is a pitiful showing for a school the size of K.U.
Several men have said they would report for the fall drills, but they needn't expect much consideration from George Sauer. He isn't that kind of a man. He is a strict disciplinarian, and it is about time that we have some discipline here. Sauer heads the finest coaching staff Kansas has had in many years, but I'm afraid we won't keep it very long unless the students wake up and realize that it is up to them to do something about the deplorable athletic situation at K.U.
We might as well forget about a Big Six champion gridiron team for two or three years. Right now the first division is a long way off.
It isn't only in football that the athletic department faces a problem. The baseball situation is also depressing with several fine players on the campus not interested enough to turn out for the diamond sport. There is one case in particular which has come to my attention. One if the most heralded baseballers ever hit the campus is back this year, but he isn't out for the team and seems to have no intention of going out.
WHY? IT SEEMS HIS FRATERNITY WANTS HIM TO PLAY SOFTBALL FOR IT IN THE INTRAMURAL PROGRAM.
There is far too much of this going on here. Teams place too much importance on winning an intramural championship. Our intramural program is one of the best, and it is a wonderful thing to have, but it should be reserved for those men who aren't good enough for varsity material.
This is another factor in K.U.'s perpetual second division dwelling in Big Six sports. Until it is corrected, we can't expect very much from our athletic teams or coaches.
Intramural Swimming Meet Scheduled for Next Week
A men's intramural swimming meet will be held May 1, 2, and 7 according to James Richey, student intramural manager. The preliminaries will be held May 1, the semifinals May 2 and the finals May 7. All three meets will begin at 7:30 p.m.
Entry blanks have been sent to all organized houses, but any person or independent group may enter by submitting its entry to the intramural office by the closing date, noon, April 29.
KU Netters Lead Big Six Conference
The K.U. tennis team is leading the Big Six conference standings today, after taking a tough 4-2 win over Oklahoma here Tuesday, and whitewashing Kansas State, 6-0, in Manhattan last week.
Roy Shoaf, KU., beat Taneel Dasi-
lakhoma. 6-2, 6-4.
Bob Groom, K.U., beat Everett
Bellork, Oklahoma, 1-6 6-2, 6-2.
Bill Myers, Oklahoma, beat Bob "Bitsy" Barnes, K.U., 6-4, 6-1.
Charles Carson, K.U., beat Roland Champion, Oklahoma, 6-2, 6-2.
Shoaf-Groom, K.U., beat Dakil-Ellerd, Oklahoma, 5-7, 6-1, 7-5.
Myers-Champion, Oklahoma, beat Barnes-Carson, 7-5, 6-2.
Oklahoma university has declared that it will resign from the Big Six if the high moguls decide to let Negroes participate in conference athletics. This problem will probably arise at the meeting of conference officials in May, and already three student councils have adopted resolutions favoring Negro participation. Kansas was the first to come out in favor, with Nebraska and Iowa State following quickly.
If Oklahoma should resign, it probably would have to continue as an independent participant in athletics. The Southwest conference seems to want to drop Arkansas because of travel difficulties, but it is believed that the conference wants to maintain an all-Texas-school membership. It seems that the only other conference available to Oklahoma would be the weak Missouri Valley league.
Oklahoma's participation as an independent school would pose quite a problem except in the gridiron sport. Perhaps the school is trying to pull a bluff, but it will remain to be seen what the Sooners will do if the problem arises.

Forrestal Appoints 58 Civilian Advisors
Washington. (UP)—Navy Secretary James Forrestal today announced the names of 58 persons, including three women, on the navy's civilian advisory committee which will hold its first meeting on the carrier Tarawa in New York harbor on Friday and Saturday.
One of the first problems the committee will discuss is the question of officer-enlisted men relationships in the navy. Members of the committee include Dr. Arthur H. Compton, president, Washington university, St. Louis, and Father E. J. Flanagan, Boy's Town, Neb.
Washington. (UP) — Germany scuttled more than half her submarine fleet after VE Day, the Navy revealed today.
In all, 994 German and 116 Italian submarines were sunk from all causes during the war. The Italians scuttled 17 after their surrender.
Tyler, Tex. (UP)—You can't make goo-goo eyes or cough at a_girl in Tyler. It isn't legal.
Assistant City Attorney Warren MacDonald says a 1918 anti-flirting ordinance still is legal and must be enforced.
(By United Press)
two memorable events occurred
a year ago today.
The United Nations assembled in San Francisco to draft its charter, and American and Russian troops joined hands at Torgau on the Elbe river, splitting Germany in two and symbolizing the approaching end of the war in Europe.
Paris, (UP)—The Big Four foreign ministers assembled today for peace treaties with signs that Russia may be preparing to yield on the Trieste issue and that Britain is opposed to any common Anglo-American front against the Soviet.
'Army Unrest Due To Communism'
Frankfurt. (UP)—Gen. Joseph T McNarry said today that "certain individuals" with communist tendencies were trying to cause unrest in American army circles.
He blamed the decline in morale and discipline on too fast a pace in redevelopment, forcing rapid shifts of skilled officers and non-commissioned officers from one unit to another.
Washington. (UP)—Gen. Carl Spaatz, Army Air forces commanding general, has announced that air force officer strength will be cut from about 92,000 on duty now to an estimated 50,000 in the postwar AAF.
Spatz said the reductions would begin immediately.
(Bu United Press)
New labor troubles in the rubber and railroad industries today kept 629,000 American workers idle. A railroad spokesman said last night that while the unions might accept a 16 cent wage increase, recommended by a fact-finding board, they opposed the few rules changes allowed by the board.
Miss Conger to Play
Dr. Albert C. Spaulding will address the Geology club at 7:30 tonight on the topic of "Early Man in America," in 426, Lindley.
Spaulding To Address Club
Miss Allie Merle Conger, of the Fine Arts faculty, will give a piano recital at 3:30 tomorrow, in Frank Strong auditorium. The recital will be sponsored by the Lawrence Music club.
France Demands UN Investigation Of Franco Spain
New York. (UP)—France today demanded a UN investigation into Spain's activities and called for arraignment of Franco before the Council.
Reaction to the French investigation proposal came quickly. America and Great Britain are publicly on record as desiring the fullest examination of all the facts pertaining to Franco Spain.
A few hours before the council was scheduled to resume debate on Spain, there was no general agreement on a detailed plan for a Spanish investigation. A majority of the council agree in principle with an Australian proposal which would bar the Franco regime from telling its side of the story.
The suggestion for an investigation of Spain is a compromise of the original Polish proposal that the council call for a diplomatic quarantine of Spain by all United Nations. Two days of debate on Poland's resolution last week revealed only Poland, Russia, France and Mexico supporting it.
Composition of the investigating committee seems certain to cause a scramble. Poland seems assured of a place by the fact she filed the complaint against Franco Spain. Australia likewise would be a member for having initiated the investigation resolution.
600 Attended A.A.U.W. Fun Fest
About 600 persons attended the fourth annual Fun Fest, sponsored by the Lawrence branch of the American Association of University Women, Wednesday night at the Community building.
Bingo, bridge, and ping pong were played, while others danced in the arena to the Serenaders. During the show from 9:30 to 10 p.m., the concessions were closed.

'No Academic Degree Has Ever Brought Success'
By DEANE W. MALOTT (Chancellor of the University)
As the academic year ends, many graduating students are looking forward to the next phase of their life's activities—a job. It has long been recognized that a collegiate or professional degree is a useful, and sometimes essential, prerequisite to success in finding a position in one's chosen field.
ONE. Select carefully, perhaps by a process of elimination, not only the kind of job you would like, but the size and location of the community in
But no academic degree has ever brought success in life; there is no assurance for your future in being a graduate of the University of Kansas. It will require all your skill, energy, imagination, and stick-to-it-iveness to be the success of which you dream.
If you will bear in mind the few following simple rules, you may avoid errors that would otherwise retard you in fulfilling your ambition:
which you wish to live. These decisions are best not left to chance.
TWO. In discussing a job with a prospective employer, leave the question of salary to the boss. In the first month or so you aren't worth much to anyone, until you:
to increase the responsibility delegated to you.
(a) Gain the confidence of the boss
(b) Learn the routines of your job and its relation to other parts of the enterprise.
THREE. You will have lots of bright ideas; but remember, most of them have been thought of before. Find out, before you become an "eager beaver" for reform.
SEVEN. It is better to leave your diploma in the attic than wear it upon your sleeve. Your less fortunate associate, who left high school to go to work in your outfit, can teach you much if you are willing to learn.
FIVE. Understand what you are to do on the job; it is no disgrace to ask questions.
FOUR. Be careful of your personal appearance; each time one of your associates looks at you, you are having your picture taken.
There is a destiny in store for you. The world is always seeking those who are willing to work, who can think about what they are doing, who are curious, and who are not to concerned about which person gets the credit. Good luck to you.
EIGHT. At the cost of overtime work, if necessary, learn all you can about the job of your immediate superior, and help him whenever possible. You never can tell when his job may be open to the best equipped candidate.
SIX. Once sure of the task that is yours, do it. An early reputation for taking responsibility will lead those above you
This is the first in a series of Daily Kansan articles on job opportunities for K.U. graduates. Other articles in the series will appear soon.
17 Students III After Attending 'Zilch' Dinner
Seventeen journalism students were ill today after attending the annual Zilch dinner at the Eldridge hotel Crystal Room last night.
More than 90 students, faculty, and guests, attended the dinner, which had a menu consisting of chicken a la king, corn, potatoes, and pumpkin pie.
"I bought fresh chickens for the dinner at 11 am, yesterday." Mike Getto, hotel manager, said this morning. "I just can't understand why anyone should get sick. My dishwasher has been with us three to four years and is very capable."
Students who complained of illness today were Willie Harmon, Cloe Norris, Reverdy Mullins, Charles Roos, Marcella Stewart, Nancy Jack, Mariam Thompson, Marion Jones, food and dessert specialist, good tricaria Manley, William Sims, Patricia Penney, Vera Strobel, Mary Morrill, and LeMoyne Frederick.
About half the students received treatment at Watkins hospital this morning.
A skit by faculty members and the crowning of Lee Cole as "Old King Cole—Peachy Pedagogy" were other highlights of the evening.
The return of Elmer Zilch, patron saint of journalism, who has been in Alaska during the past year, was welcomed at the dinner.
The Fee Wee Kansan, anonymously edited baby edition of the Daily Kansan, made its annual appearance.
The purposes of the William Allen White Foundation were outlined by Chancellor Deane W. Malett in a speech at a dinner for the foundation Wednesday night in New York.
Malott Explains Foundation Aims
The chancellor pointed out that the foundation planned to provide "realistic teaching material for the University and for all other colleges and universities offering work in the area of communication" and to bring to the University "leaders of thought in various fields exemplified by the life of William Allen White for lectures."
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower was guest of honor at the dinner attended by representatives of press, radio, motion pictures, and education. Other speakers included Sen. Arthur Capper and Frank E. Tropp, manager of the Gannett newspapers.
Mr. Tripp called on the press, radio, and film industries to unite behind a slogan of "freedom of expression." He said that the phrase "freedom of the press" was misleading and outmoded.
"Make it what you will, freedom to know or freedom of expression," the Elmira, N.Y., publisher said, "but make it all inclusive and understandable."
The press has been the "lionstone goat" in the battle for freedom of expression, Mr. Tripp said, because the founders of our country could not foresee the scientific developments in communication. "As a newspaperman, I will defend the freedom of the screen and of the air as zealously as the freedom of the press," he said.
YW Members To K.C.
Meredith Heinsohn, Dorothy Park,
Franzena Jackson, and Mrs. Christine Alford, Y.W.C.A. secretary, will attend the Institute on Human Relations at the University of Kansas City Saturday.

The Faculty Shows Us Up
The campus Memorial Drive fund campaign has now run for more than two weeks and so far the response has been only half-hearted. Student contributions have not yet reached $2,000 of a goal of $10,000.
This apparent lack of interest is in direct contrast to what is being experienced in other branches of the drive. The people of Lawrence have already passed the half-way mark in their quota of $50,000. Members of the Memorial Drive committee who have been visiting various localities throughout the state report a great enthusiasm for the project in nearly all cases.
One of the best responses to the entire fund campaign has come from the University faculty. Though comparatively few in number, they have already contributed $6,500. Many of these faculty members are still being paid salaries on the pre-war level.
What is the explanation of this apparent lack of student interest in the memorial project? It can hardly be that it has not been thoroughly explained. The Memorial committee has gone to great lengths to promote a thorough understanding of the entire project. Perhaps all students have not been contacted personally for contributions. But it should be common knowledge by now that any contributions can be left either at the Alumni office or at the Memorial association office (room 218) both in Frank Strong hall.
The students and faculty are the groups most closely related to the University. Contributions from other sources will tend to fall behind if we do not demonstrate real interest and support for this project. The faculty members have done their part. It is now up to the student body.

Are they scarce too? Doc Wheeler's latest outstanding feature is a brand new mustache of about three weeks growth. On a recent trip to the "Mite", Roy Borgen, the proprietor, sent the waitress to the table with a meat from the house—a silver platter holding one lone razor blade.
Happy Easter—Doc Sherman and Pat Maloney, Phil Delt's aren't such successful farmers afterall. The pink and blue baby chickens (The Beta colors) they received as Easter gifts from two Gamma Phil's lived a short life. One died the next day, despite careful feedings and an incubator home, and Pat swears that he didn't fry the one that disappeared.
SOS-Sig Alph Jack Ballard's latest claim to fame is a statement uttered in great stress during the Sigma Chi-Sig Algh game. Jack ripped a huge hole in his slacks in the midst of the struggle. After canvassing the entire female audience, he was finally taken from the game screaming, "Isn't there one safety pin in the house?"
Civil War—Intra-dorm warfare has reached new proportions at the Sigma Chi house, Ernie Wildhagen and Eddie Sheldon (master crafts-men) silently sealed Doug McCleod and Frank Patee in their room while they were "hitting the books." Never one to leave a job half done, Ernie after securing the door with no less than three hasps and half a dozen screws decided it was safe to make a little noise and began gleefully hammering in two inch spikes. At this time Patee decided action was necessary and proceeded to kick the door out. A brief scuffle ensured climaxed by Doug's parting remark, "This is a dirty trick and it means OPEN WAR."
Back to Nature. Disregarding the abnormal amount of H2O so prevalent these days, one must admit that spring, or something closely resembling it, is here. And with spring there are always pics.

Saturday the three D.U. Veitch brothers, Jack, Lee and Bob decided to have a picnic of their own, with proper feminine accompaniment, of course. But they decided too late to get the usual food requisites. Their dates told them they weren't interested in a picnic without food. I guess the way to a woman's heart is through her stomach, too.

There is an additional story behind the no-hit, no-run game that Ed Head of the Brooklyn Dodgers pitched yesterday. Ten years ago a surgeon told Head that he would never pitch again. His arm had been shattered in an automobile accident.
The surgeon was half right because Head never pitched another game as a southpaw. With the heart and courage of a youngster who wouldn't let his dream of becoming a major leaguer fade away, Head refused to give up and learned to toss stones with his right hand. Soon he could get enough distance and control to play ball, and he started the long, hard grind up through the minor leagues.
Today the courageous Dodger pitcher is in the company of baseball's big league immortals who have hurled no-hit, no-run games. In 2013, he was granted permission since he was released from the service Head accomplished the feat which has been the dream of every hurler to reach the majors.
Head succeeded in fulfilling his ambition to reach the majors, and he did it in grand style. His is just another case of one who wouldn't quit, but overcame a handicap to reach the top.
Leo "The Lip" Durocher, turbulent Brooklyn Dodger manager, faces a possible penalty more drastic than any he has ever received after one of his tiffs with an ampire.
Durocher and a special patrolman at the baseball park are charged with breaking a heckler's jaw in an alleged attack which occurred after a night game last June 9 with the Phillies.
If they are convicted, both men face maximum penalties of five years in Sing Sing prison and heavy fines. The Lip's fate rests with a criminal court jury which insisted it could try the Dodger manager without prejudice even though 11 of the 12 are Dodger fans.
Rained out of its two game series with Oklahoma here this week, Kansas will invade Manhattan tomorrow for a return baseball scuffle with Kansas State.
Baseballers Meet K-State Tomorrow
Tommy Saffell, veteran Jayhawk righthander who limited the Wildcats to three hits in the teams' first meeting at Lawrence, is booked for KU's starting mound assignment Friday with Lefty Hammer, Medicine Lodge southpaw, slated for Saturday's mound chores.
Saffell gained a 2-1 triumph over the Wildeats on his three-hitter, but the Cats hammered three other Hawk pitchers for a 14-8 win in the nightcap.
A. D. Pi, Kappa Win Women's Softball
Alpha Delta Pi won a 4 to 2 victory over I.W.W. and Kappa KappaGamma trounced Tipperary hall. 21-14, in the women's intramural softball tournament Wednesday. The Independents forfeited to Corbin hall. Last week's games found I.W.W. defeating Kappa Alpha Theta 14-13 and Miller hall winning over Tipperary hall 12-1 with L. Rothenberger and Graves as battery for Miller. Battery for the Theta's were Fadler, Joseph, and Patchen.

Strip Tease, Square Dancing, Basketball Highlight Spur Club Horse Show Sunday
Yippy-yi-oh-ki-yay—and a strip tease too!
That's an attraction for a free horse show, sponsored by the Spur club and equitation classes at 3 p.m. Sunday on the west intramural fields.
The strip tease on horseback by Eleanor Churchill will be one of the afternoon's highlights along with the horseback sword battle. The group of fighters, armed with three-foot wooden swords, will gallop around trying to keep each other from breaking the balloons tied to the back of the saddles.
"The rider's main difficulty here," Mr. Mott explained, "is trying to control the horses frightened by balloon popping."
Clarence Francisco will demonstrate his "own brand" of trick riding and George Eisenhardt will have the warm job of jumping his mount through a flaming hoop.
High jumping will be by Martha Laffer, Carol Long, and Eisenhardt. This trio will do both single jumping as well as group jumping. Also,
Miss Laffer and Miss Long will ride
two colts which they trained and
"halter broke" two weeks ago.
Later in the afternoon will come the horseback square dance and the basketball game. Each "eage" team will have six players who will make scores by shooting the ball down at the rubber tire goals on the ground.
"If a passed ball is missed, it automatically becomes a free ball and can be thrown or retrieved by rifters can dismount or lean from the saddle!" Mr. Mott laughed.
"We are also running a 16 horse drill, a demonstration of three and five gaited horses, and western style riding. In western riding, each rider will be given one minute to show what the horse can do such as a dead run, spinning, and the figure eight," said Mr. Mott.
As a part of the "learning from the ground up" section of the program, children from 6 to 10 years of age will demonstrate their riding ability and play a fast game of horse-tag.
who suffered a skull fracture, told authorities from his hospital bed that he was going too fast to stop the train in time to avoid the crash.
Edward Flynn, vice-president of the Burlington lines, confirmed that Blaine was traveling within the railroad's speed limit, which is 85 miles an hour for that section of track.
Flynn said, however, that a train going 85 miles an hour could stop in less than a mile and a quarter. Blaine had told authorities that when he saw the yellow warning signal he put on the brakes but could not stop his train. Blaine, a railroad man for 44 years, was described by Burlington officials as an engineer with a "better than average" record for safety and efficiency,
Officials said that 36 of the injured were hurt seriously. The other injured were treated at the scene for shock, bruises, and minor lacerations, and then released.
By the time rescue workers satisfied themselves early today that there were no more bodies in the wreckage, four separate investigations into the cause of the crash were under way. The wreck was the worst in the road's 90-year history.
The Flyer roared into this small town 28 miles southwest of Chicago at more than a mile a minute yesterday afternoon, and ripped into the lounge car of the Advance Exposition, which had made an unscheduled stop.
Six cars of the Advance Flyer and five of the Exposition Flyer were either derailed or overturned. The 4,000-horsepower diesel engine of the Exposition plunged into the rear lounge car of the Advance two thirds of the way, splitting it wide open and hurling passengers and debris into the air.
The three cars forward of the rear car_of the Advance were smashed hopelessly, and dead were strenu along the twisted tracks. Wreckage and bodies were soaked with diesel oil.
Just before the crash, the fireman of the Exposition shouted to the engineer. "Bill, you're going to hit." Then he climbed from the cab and leaped to his death. Most of the other dead were aboard the last car of the Advance, and most of the injured were in the three cars forward.

Moscow Tells Its Story
During the consideration of the Soviet-Iranian dispute by the Security Council, the Russian delegate chose to say little about its side of the question. But a recent editorial in Pravda went into great detail explaining the Soviet position to the Russian people. The following are excerpts from that editorial.
For a long time the Soviet Union's aspiration to establish good-neighborly relations and firm cooperation with Iran encountered the systematic resistance of the reactionary ruling circles of Iran. . . From the very beginning of its existence the Soviet Union resolutely renounced the former imperialistic policy of czarist Russia and adopted toward Iran, as well as toward other neighboring small countries, a policy of respect and the recognition of sovereign equality between countries. February 26, 1921
However, in that same year Iranian ruling circles granted, in violation of the treaty, to a foreign company (the Standard Oil company) an oil concession in northern Iran, right at the frontier of the Soviet Union.
concession in northern Iran, right to the hostile "But matters did not end at this. After the annulment, upon the demand of the Soviet government, of this concession, Iran, in violation of a treaty of 1937, again granted to an American company a concession situated near a frontier of the U.S.S.R. and two years after the annulment of this concession, they granted to an Anglo-Dutch company a concession of oil fields situated south of Baku. This concession was also annuled upon the demand of the U.S.S.R., but not until 1944...
of respect and the recognition of his merit. "To accordance with the treaty signed in Moscow on February 26, 1921, which up to these days formed the basis of Soviet-Iranian relations, the Soviet Union voluntarily turned over to Iran numerous concessions . . . and refused to exact payment of loans granted to Iran by the Tsarist government.
"Such actions of the then existing Iranian government, which roughly violated the treaty of 1921 in favor of foreign oil companies and stubbornly refused to grant concessions to the Soviet Union serve as vivid evidence of the hostile policy of those circles toward the U.S.S.R. ...
"When the Soviet government was convinced that the new Iranian government, headed by Ahmed Ghavam, showed the desire to establish good-neighborly relations between the two countries, there arose the possibility of a favorable settlement of the problem of the evacuation of Soviet troops from Iran. Therefore, very weak grounds existed for bringing up the so-called Iranian question before the U.N. Security Council . . ."
The question of whether the Russian oil concession will satisfy the Soviets or whether she is determined to make a puppet of Iran will be answered by future events.
There has been comment in congress and elsewhere recently about the proportions to which legislative lobbying has grown. This added discussion of an old pressure group practice is mostly the result of the activity during the past few weeks of the real estate and building lobby that has been fighting the Wyatt housing program.
One Lobbyist's Opinion
It is said that this group of lobbyists is operating on a fund of between one and five million dollars, allocated expressly for the purpose of furthering their interests in Washington.
They continue to point out that they are acting in the interests of the nation as a whole and that they are as anxious to give relief to the veterans in their search for a place to live as any one else. That's the impression they want to give to the public.
But privately they have shown their true colors. One of the most ardent of those lobbyists is Cotton Northrup, of the National Retail Lumber Dealers Association. Recently one congressman asked him not to block veterans housing for selfish interests because after all the veteran had been fighting for him. At this, Northrup snapped back, "They weren't fighting for me."
That's about as good a statement of policy by this group of lobbyists as one could ask for. It explains a lot of things.

One way to get an Easter outfit, Commander Baum had to pay for a new Easter outfit after a wager at the PT-8 house party. Mrs. Baum was sure that she heard baby chickens but her husband thought the idea was absurd. An investigation revealed 100 baby chicks which were later given to the guests.

Allies Put Out Fire Of Hitlerism But Nazis Keep The Embers Glowing
BY LOUIS F. KEEMILE (United Press Staff Correspondent)
The leaders of the movement have been arrested and the organization is described officially as having been smashed. Nevertheless, British and American officials do not think this is by any means the last of such efforts.
The vitality of the Nazi idea among certain classes of Germans, notably the younger generation, has been shown by the American-British discovery of a highly organized underground movement to perpetuate Hitlerism.
tions.
A United Press dispatch from British headquarters in Germany said authorities there believe similar organizations may be expected in increasing numbers and under various guises and that the "peaceful conditions of the first nine months of occupation are not likely to be continued."
The growth of "incidents" involving British and American troops was noted. Although small so far, they were taken to indicate that the sullen, rebellious spirit is growing. It apparently is being encouraged by the return of many arrogant Nazi's from prisoner of war camps in other countries, who consider themselves undefeated and are spreading the doctrine of internal betrayal which was made gospel by the militarists after the previous war.
after the previous Events such as the July, 1944, attempt against Hitler and the high command are being used as arguments to bolster this new version of the previous legend.
The present movement, judging from official accounts, was notable for its efficient, long-range program, mapped with typical German genius for organization. There was to be no sabotage. On the contrary, these survivors of the Hitler jugend (Hitler Youth) and the Bund Deutscher Madel (League of German Girls) planned an appearance of co-operation with allied occupation authorities.
The stress was on economic as well as political infiltration. From the long view, economic control was necessary to some day get the Allies who could be pressured into joining Germany in another war effort, to say nothing of being weakened by Germany's economic domination of central and eastern Europe, as before.
The potential danger of this movement is evident. The only consolation is that American and British intelligence officers were thoroughly alert to it. They tracked its developments for ten months before making mass arrests, with a complete case in their hands.
At the same time, the conclusion is inequitable that no time limit can be set safely yet on the length of allied military occupation of Germany.
The present generation of younger Germans has in large part been irrevocably inoculated with the Hitler poison. Their children, who will begin having a voice in affairs 20 to 30 years from now, might conceivably be "educated" toward a better viewpoint by allied supervision. The prospect seems more likely that parental influence, exercised in secret, will offset any attempts at education.
This is as Hitler planned it, even though his werewolf idea proved impracticable. It probably explains France's reluctance to consent to a centralized government of Germany for the time being. Although the French have shown signs of moderating their previous demand for complete separation of the Ruhr, Rhineland and Saar from Germany, the latest exposure of the real German spirit may tend to stiffen their attitude. The French, who have been invaded from Germany three times in living memory, are incurably suspicious.
Cherokee, Okla., (UP)—Three 13-year-old boys appeared in county court today to tell their story of an unsuccessful attempt to steal an airplane and fly to Texas to hunt coyotes "because we were bored."

"The Minnesota Lake-bed Girl," one of the few primitive skeletons found in America, probably wouldn't do for a "pin-up," but geologists smiled when Dr. Albert Spaulding, anthropologist, mentioned "her" in his talk at the geology club meeting Thursday night.
Dr. Spaulding, who spoke on "Early Man in the New World", said that although few skeletons of ancient man have been discovered in America, archaeologists have found indirect evidence of his having been here in obviously man-made weapons uncovered near camp sites and in the ribs of extinct animals.
'Minnesota Minnie' Wouldn't Do As Pin-Up
He explained that archaeologists believe the skeleton of the "Minnesota Lake-bed Girl" is contemporaneous with the 12-foot deep clay bed in which "she" was found.

Campus Politics Just'Ain't What They Used To Be'
Fraud, Not-Always-Subtle Mudslinging Have Marked Campaigns Since 1909
"If elected, I will conduct a price-slashing campaign. I will endeavor to bring the price of Spearmint within reach of all, start a campaign to establish a rest and smoking room for men, to raise the price of Bull Durham, and lower the price of Camels."
This campaign polled a huge vote for the dark-horse "Dollars and Cents" party in the 1922 election on the University campus.
There have been others. The "Fairnsquare" and "Status Quo Antebellum" tickets of 1919, the Crimson and Blue ticket, the Rising Sun, the Oread-Kayhawks (a coalition), the Progressives, the more recent Women's Independent Greek Society, the Progressive Women's Cooperative League, and the present day Pachacamac. Progressive Students Governing league, Women's
Greek party, and Independents have campaigned every spring since the beginning of student government in 1909.
Mudslinging has been more subtle on the campus recently, but formerly statements to the press, published propaganda, and other more novel plans were used to express unguarded disdain for opposing parties and platforms.
Formerly, the big contention was in regard to fraternity and non-fraternity representation on the tickets, each party claiming that the other was misrepresenting the fraternity affiliations of candidates in an attempt to hoodwink the non-fraternity vote.
Party workers picked up non- fraternity men in their cars in 1931, and took them to the polls to vote. Approximately 80 per cent of the men voted that year.
The Kayhawker official party, dedicated to "truthful journalism" elucidated upon Hiil problems such as the "liquor situation, student government, barbarians, and other social questions."
Political vandals used eggs as bombs and brown paint to spread "terror" among their political rivals in 1834. The injured party denied that they would send a request to the governor for national guardmen to patrol polling places the next day. At the same election, a state activity tickets at state institu-
senator who had been against havitons was a rally speaker,
The first penalty for dishonesty and fraud in elections was reported in 1929, when culprits had three hours of credit added to their requirement for graduation, and full publicity.
Campus dogs were drafted for the cause in 1922. On election day they appeared decorated with their party's name and colors. The only difficulty was that before the last vote had been counted, a dog had his political affiliations changed several times by other parties wishing free advertising.
This notice was found in a local cafe that year!
"In regard to my name appearing on the Cake-Eater Ticket, I am not withdrawing from this ticket for fear of losing my reputation to any squirrel print that might appear, but simply because I want to see a squirrel in my yard, I graft. I don't want it all. Yours for better government. G. H. Penney."
Jazz bands, parades, rallies, stump speakers, and distribution of peanuts and ice cream bars have been popular methods of reaching voters' hearts. Campaign literature has littered the campus, while ardent workers reactionered as close to polls as they'd stayed. One year the line was so heavy on both sides of Fraser that it extended about 200 feet west, and those who ran the gauntlet received enough cards to "fill a bucket."

Elections usually have a lighter side. The following appeared in 1922:
Some years students could walk unmolested to vote for the can-
"In reply to circulating propaganda which says that Van the Animal man will lose the fraternity vote in his race for dog catcher, Van made it known this morning that he had caught no fraternity dogs or "barbarian" dogs this year.
"A man by the name of Pulley is pulling in the dogs, Van says, and all Van does is to give them board and lodging; takes care of the inner dog, so to speak. However, Van declares that he will faithfully perform the duties connected with his office if elected, and will specialize in corralling country dogs which stray on the campus."
Chiang Postpones National Assembly
Chungking. (UP)—Generalissimo Chiang Kai SHEk today announced indefinite postponement of the first meeting of China's National assembly, and press reports said the government has decided to forfeit Harbin, a major Manchurian industrial city, to Communist troops.
Washington. (UP)—The Veterans administration estimated today that 4,000,000 more jobs will be available by the end of the year—enough to threaten a labor shortage.
VA said the increased demand for labor was indicated by plans for new construction and for increased output of durable goods.

How About This Dryden, Anyway? He Plans Business To Go To Pot'
To plan for a business to go to "pot" isn't common in the businessman's world today, but James Dryden, special student from Ellsworth, is doing just that. By June, 1946, he will be a full-fledged pottery maker.
Dryden, who is 28, has a versatite background of experience, some of it gained while serving in the army during the war, from which to choose his life's vocation. None of them, however, added up to pottery making.
"The man who actually sold me on making pottery my vocation was Norman Plumber of the University Geological survey." Dryden recalled, "He happened to be in Ellsworth one day and told me that the clay in central Kansas was fine for pottery making."
Dryden is studying under J. Sheldon Carey, professor of ceramics.
Lt. Col. Senate Receives Army Commendation Ribbon
Lt. Col. Ray C. Senate, '34, former circulation manager of Capper publications and former governor of Chung Chong Pukto province in Korea recently was awarded the Army Commendation ribbon by Maj. Gen. Archer L. Lerch, military governor of Korea. The award was made to Colonel Senate before he returned to this country to be discharged.
While attending the University, Colonel Senate worked on the Sour Owl, and was a member of the Players. He is now president of the Topeka Junior Chamber of Commerce.
Los Angeles, (UP)—Dean Daly, manager of a metropolitan airport, was convinced today that the housing shortage in Los Angeles really was acute. He reported to police that a frame house located on the airport grounds, had been stolen.
Professor Carey has developed a new idea for using volcanic ash, plentiful in central Kansas, in the glazing of pottery. The volcanic ash is combined in liquid form with the color and is applied to the surface of the pottery by dipping, brushing, or spraying.
Dryden will set up his "factory" in a Quonset hut in Ellsworth in June, and with the aid of helpers, will begin making pottery for four retail customers who have already agreed to buy his pottery if it is acceptable. He plans to transport his product by truck to various stores throughout the state.
"Why did I decide to make pottery?" he shrugged. "I knew the clay was there, I knew my career in the army was over, and I knew I had to make a living."
Here is one business which will successfully go to "pot."
Frankfurt (UP)—Gen. Joseph Mc-Narney has ordered a disciplinary crackdown on U.S. occupation forces acknowledging that lax discipline had damaged the American reputation among the Allies.

"The A. V. C." Professor Gibson said, "carried the ball by itself against the biggest bunch of joby-ists in history to fright for the Wyatt emergency housing program."
Russell Barrett, A. V. C. chairman, gave a short history of the organization. The organization's three-point statement of policy was adopted unanimously. In a vote taken for continuance of the draft law, four members voted against extension of the draft.

SPOTLIGHT ON SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
Another attempt is being made to organize ball players into a union. It is the fourth effort to organize them, but the other three died out quickly. Baseball is a profession and not a trade. That is one reason why a ball players union is impractical. No two ball players are of precisely the same ability, therefore it would be impossible to set a maximum wage scale.
maximum wage
What makes baseball a highly competitive game is the lack of salary cellings. Place a limit on pay, and the game will collapse because many players, realizing they were being paid the limit, would play only as well as they had to play, instead of as well as they could.
Baseball men are curious to know whether the union advocates would so a certain wage scale for pitchers, ca chars, first basemen, etc. Would they want Hank Greenberg, for example, to slash his salary to strike an average for first basemen, or would they demand that all first basemen receive the same pay that Greenberg does?
It seems to me that a union in baseball would knock the game flat on its back. Perhaps this attempt will fade quickly like the others, but the union officials claim that they have made much progress. It will bear watching to see how many ball players fall for the scheme.
There is a ludicrous side to the threat of unionizing the game. A manager might want to make a switch at one of the positions, but the players would object. If the manager insisted, he would cause a strike. Or, players might strike if they didn't like the umpire, or if they objected to the locker room, or the way the playing field was kept up.
Just imagine a 5 o'clock whistle on the center field fence; time and a half for extra-innings; vacations with pay; five-day weeks; guys walking up and down in front of baseball parks with sign: "Organized Baseball Unfair to Lefty Doakes."
The incidents that could develop are almost limitless, and the life of unionized baseball, while real merry, would be very short.
Churchill Downs officials are getting set for the 72nd annual Kentucky Derby May 4, and they are expecting 110,000 or more persons as compared with last year's 85,000.
The bluegrass classic will no longer be the wartime "streetcar" event, but will bring representatives from just about every state. Hotels have been sold out for weeks and are still turning away reservations by the hundreds daily.

Durocher Acquitted On Assaulf Charge
New York (UP)—Leo Durocher, fiery and管理局 manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, was acquitted Thursday on a charge of second degree assault that arose out of a dispute with a fan at Eocets field.
Joseph Moore, a special patrolman at Ebbets field, also was found not guilty by a jury of 11 Dodger fans and a non-baseball addict.
They had been accused of striking John Christian, a war veteran who used to go to Ebbets field three or four times a week to heckle "them bums." He charged that Durocher and Moore took him under the stands during a night game between the Dodgers and Philadelphia on June 9 and beat him with a black-jack and Durocher also hit him with his fists.
Conviction on the second degree assault charge would have carried a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a $1,000 fine.
Conviction also probably would have meant the end of Durocher's colorful baseball career for only once in the history of organized baseball has a convicted felon been permitted to play the game. That player was Alabama Pitts, who was granted special permission to play after serving a term in Sing Sing prison for robbery.
Under baseball law, the matter would have been up to Commissioner A. B. Chandler, who would have had the power to bar Durocher he had decided that his actions were detrimental to the game.
Carruth, Old Timers Win Softball Games

Jayhawker Thinclads Invade Iowa Today For Qualifying Rounds of Drake Relays
A squad of 14 Jayhawker thinclads invaded Des Moines, Iowa, today for qualifying rounds for the Drake Relay tomorrow afternoon.
K. U.'s high jump ace, Tom Scocfield, who has cleared 6 feet 6 inches to take firsts in the Texas and Kansas Relays, is favored to capture his third high jump crown tomorrow. Scofield's partner in this event is veteran Bob Stoland.
Freshman Karl Ebel, who has startled crowds in his first performances for K.U. by breaking 190 feet in the javelin toss is expected to place high in this event, which will probably be dominated by Michigan State and Notre Dame entries.
The crack relay squad of Andy Lumsford, Hank Raab, Harold Hinchee and John Jackson will be trying for their third straight mile relay win, although Hinchee is nursing a bad ankle.
The shot and discus events will be in the hands of Leroy Robison, who placed third and fifth respectively in the Kansas Relays last Saturday. Robison, whose events take place
this afternoon, has been on the sick list.
"Hurry Harold" Moore, second place winner in the Glenn Cunningham mile last weekend, will participate in the Drake two-mile run. Moore, a staunch two-miler during the fall cross-country season, reported again to Coach Ray Kaneh, two weeks ago.
Charlie Black, KU's All-American basketball ace who has surprised fans with a versatile track performance since he joined the squad several weeks ago, will try to take the pault vault, an event in which he tied for second in the Kansas runnings last week.
Little Mel Stevens, Tulane transfer, will be representing Kansas in the broad jump event. Mel took fifth in the Relays last week, and has jumped consistently over 21 feet this season.
Relay men, John Jackson, Harold Hinchee, and Andy Lunsford will run the low and high hurdles. K.U. will not be represented in the 100-yard dash.
'Most Expensive' Cooper Will Be Out for a Month
New York, (UP)—Walker Cooper, baseball's most expensive piece of bric-a-brac was on the shelf today—for at least a month.
The big catcher, who cost the New York Giants $175,000 when he was purchased during the off-season from the St. Louis Cardinals, broke the small finger on his throwing hand Thursday when he was struck by a foul tip in a game against the Braves.
War Crimes Trial in Uproar
Nuernberg. (UP) — The war crimes trial was thrown into an uproar today by the disclosure that a witness had been threatened and with charges of plotting for mutual protection among the defendants and their lawyers.
Justice Robert H. Jackson told the court that threats were made against Hans Bernd Gisseius, former attache of the Nazi interior ministry, while he was waiting to testify.

Othman Conducts A Test Among 'Greedy Lobbyists'
OPA's Policy on Chairs Is Positively 'Splintering'
By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN (U.P. Staff, Correspondent)
Washington. (UP)—One of the holding chairs, handsomely made and carefully varnished, bore and OPA sealing price tag of $2.20. I sat in that one.
The rickety chair, roughly bolted together, unpainted and splintery, and an OPA price of $2.50. Maj. Benjamin H. Namm, head of one of Brooklyn's biggest department stores and president of the National Retail Dry Goods association, sat gingerly in that one.
Surrounding us in a congressional committee room was the association's portable dry goods store, with a stock of everything from pink panties to lawnmowers to baby dresses. These displays were designed to show congress that the OPA was ruining America's storekeepers. The OPA retorted that the horrid examples were phoneys; the dry goods men said they weren't.
Chester Bowles, who used to head the OPA until he stepped up a notch in the governmental hierarchy, charged that the association chiefs were irresponsible, reckless, and greedy lobbists.
"Are you a greedy lobbyist, Major Namm?" I asked.
"Ouch," the major said. He pulled
a sliver of wood from his chocolate-colored pants.
"But are you a greedy lobbyist?" I insisted.
"You've got to be careful with this new merchandise," he said.
"I am a citizen first," he said, tugging at another splinter, "and a merchant second and I guess I am a lobbyist, all right. That is, I am a lobbyist, if a man petitioning his congress to correct injustice is a lobbyist. But I am not a greedy lobbyist."
The major said our chairs were a first class example of what—ouch—he was talking about. Mine, the good one (you know me), was out of production because the manufacturer insisted he could not sell it any longer for $2.20.
"So the OPA lets him go out of business," Major Namm said. "But another new manufacturer comes along to make this chair of mine (durn, you'd think he could have scraped off the splinters) and the OPA gives his a price of $2.50 for something not as good as the chair the old-established man wants to make, but can't.
The major said that OPA pricing policies alone were responsible for the bare shelves in his store and in every other shop in the country.
stocks of merchandise are at a lower ebb than when the fighting was at its height," he said. "And that isn't all. One of the worst things is the way this system has taken away the dignity of American man and woman."
That's straight from acting city manager J. M. Nagle.
The city manager gave his verdict on love-making in Hermann square, a park in front of the city hall, after Park Director Hugo Koehn sought to ban lovers from the park.
U.H.S. To Have 'Hi-Home' Night
Two of the major's models, one wearing a pre-OPA house dress which was pink and pretty, and the other clad in an OPA number which fitted her only in spots, strolled in. These ladies bore price tags, but the tags (Othman, you dope) turned out to be the prices of their frocks.
The major jumped. Another splinter. I must say he did not look dignified.
Houston. (UP)—Love in front of the city hall is not only wonderful it's legal.
University's high school's annual Hi-Home night will be held in the Kansas room of the Union at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Ward L. Kiester, principal, said today.
"I don't mean that," he said. "I am talking about the folks who used to come into the store with heads up and a smile on their faces to buy what they wanted. Now they must beg for merchandise, and connie, and get to know the right clerk, and sneak stuff out from under the counter.
"The merchant has lost his dignity, too. We have got to get down on our knees and plead with the manufacturer for the privilege of buying merchandise we wish we did not have to sell."
The parents of present students, prospective students and their parents, and U.H.S. graduates are invited, he added.
The program will be prepared and presented by students with the exception of an address by Dean George B. Smith, of the School of Education. After the program there will be visiting and dancing, Mr. Kierster said.
The lovers, sun-bathers and nice old men liked to eat in the park, Joehn said, and left too many paters, pickle jars, chicken bones and ice crusts lying on the grass. "Let them love," Nagle ruled.

Washington. (UP)—Secretary of Labor Lewis B. Schwellenbach said today that he would call disputants in the coal strike into new joint conferences next Monday or Tuesday in an effort to get negotiations going again.
Guy W. Smith Named Mathematics Head
Before coming to the University, Dr. Smith had taught at the University of Colorado from 1909 to 1913; the University of Illinois from 1913 to 1917; Beloit College, 1917 to 1918; and the University of Kentucky from 1918 to 1920.
The mathematics department has a peak load of students this semester—1750 in all. Reasons for the increased enrollment are given as being due to heavy enrollments in engineering, and the fact that almost all branches of science are now demanding knowledge of mathematics.
Dr. Guy W. Smith is the new chairman of the department of mathematics at the University. He succeeds Dr. E. B. Stouffer who has been appointed dean of the University.

DR. GUY W. SMITH

Dr. Smith began teaching in the mathematics department in 1920 and was made a professor in 1934. He is one of six members of the mathematics staff who have taught in the department for 25 years or more.

Y.M.C.A. Secretary Said 'I Do' To the Um-Pa-Pa of a Calliope
By BEVERLY BAUMER
(Daily Kansan Staff Writer)
Ned Linegar, K.U.'s new Y.M.C.A. secretary, insists he's a "pretty common fellow," but most common fellows don't have to scream above the bump-pa-pa of a calliope and the roar of an airplane in order to get married.
Mr. Linegar did.
During the ceremony, which was held on the front lawn of his flame's house overlooking the Ohio river, a steam boat, equipped with a calliope, passed by. The bridegroom couldn't bear himself say "I do," so his future father-in-law influenced the captain of the boat to quit making with the music. Then an airplane zoomed over continually for 15 minutes. But regardless of the racket, he got his Mrs.
The new "Y" secretary arrived here recently from Philadelphia, where he worked in a rural recreational center. Before that, he was associate Y.M.C.A. secretary at Pennsylvania State college, and he was employed in Chicago as an assistant program director for a Y.M.C.A. hotel that housed 2,500 men. He graduated from the University of Missouri, and did graduate work at the University of Cincinnati.
Besides doing recreational work, Mr. Linegar has worked with the bosane and feeble minded. During the war, he did social work in a school for mental cases.
In the school, located near Philadelphia, were several idiosavants, among them, a 25-year-old, who
"He was never wrong. He could tell you what day Christmas fell on in 1890, 1920—any time. I only knew once when he missed, and that was when he was doing it in front of a clinical group, and got excited."
He told of other unusual cases like one man who would ask your birth date, and then tell you what day of the week it fell on.
could tell the exact time day o. night, without looking at a watch.
"Recreation has many religious activities, and one big problem the church is not wanting to combine the two. Persons express their personalities through recreation, and it is possible to be religious and recreational-minded at the same time," Mr. Linear stated.
Mr. Linegar, somewhat portly brown haired and brown eyed, who reminds you of the "friendly minister back home you always wanted to talk with but did not get the chance," has lots of ideas on the practical application of religion, though not a minister himself.
Religious questions somehow always come into his "Y" work, and he thinks recreation should tie in with religion.
The new secretary will establish his office in the subbasement of the Union. As for plans in the future, he says that his job will be to help coordinate Y.M.C.A. activities, to act as a student counselor, and to be responsible for the concessions for the organization, but as for government and control of the "Y" the men themselves are to "call it theirs," he declared.
To Understand 'Skin Of Our Teeth, Just Take Along Your Imagination
"What's going on, anwway?"
That's a typical reaction to "Skin of Our Teeth," by Thornton Wilder, according to Allen C. Crafton, director of the student play which will be given in Fraser theater, at 8:15 p.m., Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
"First of all, we're going to try to make the play clear to the audience," Professor Crafton said.
All the spectator needs, he said, is knowledge of the history of the human race, a few points of Biblical history (especially the story of Cain), and a sense of humor.
George Antrobus, played by Herk Harvey, represents the average man. At first he is a roughneck "banging his family around." He is the inventor of the wheel and the alphabet. Through the ages, he becomes rich, egotistical, and pleasure-loving. He survives disaster after disaster, finally becoming discouraged and humbled after a war but he still believes in man's progress.
Mrs. Antrobus, played by Mrs. Kathleen Howland, fights to keep their home intact, lies and cheats for her children, tolerates "the other woman," and campaigns for women's rights.
Raeburn May Play (If Thev Find Him)
Boyd Raeburn and his band may play for the K-club dance May 11 and then again—
Before the Easter vacation, Harold Hunter, varsity dance manager, sent Raeburn a contract to sign, and half of his fee in advance. This week, when Raeburn had not returned the Hunter contacted the Hollywood band which had booked the band. He was told to contact Raeburn personally.
Today, by long distance telephone Hunter is hunting Raeburn, who is touring southwestern army camps in an army C-46 transport plane.
"We expect to catch up with him by tomorrow, and have him signed definitely," Hunter said this morning. "We'll have a band for that dance yet!"
Holtzclaw Elected Religious Group Head
New officers of the Student Religious council, elected Thursday, are Mary Holtzclaw, president; Charles Dillon, vice-president; and Margaret Gruenthal, secretary-treasurer.
The council is beginning to plan Religious Emphasis week for next year.
The United Indian Traders association today announced its code of standards for genuine hand-made Navajo and Pueblo Indian jewelry, and prepared to license use of its stamp and mark on silver in order that quality hand work can be readily identified.
Gallup, N.M. (UP)—From now on, tourist purchasers of Indian jewelry can be sure they're getting the real McCoy.
The mark will consist of the initials of the group, UITA, with an arrowhead breaking the letters in the center. A number, designating the member who applied the mark, will follow the arrowhead.
New Standards Set For Indian Jewelry
The executive committee has also ruled out use of power machinery in the fashioning of jewelry, except in the grinding and polishing of stones and for final finishing. Power equipment that tends to shape, design, stamp or cut out jewelry is prohibited.

Army Unveils Secret Of Night-Fighting With Infra-Red Rays
Indianapolis, (UP)—The army has taken the wraps off of the "sniperscope" and the "snooperscope," two infrared devices credited with 30 per cent of the Jap casualties on Okinawa.
The devices enabled U.S. sooters and marines to seek out and kill the enemy in total darkness by means of infra-red radiation.
The Sniper scope, mounted on a 30 calibre carbine, and the Snooper-scope, a hand model, made it possible for fighters to shoot an invisible beam of light into the night. Both models have what appears to be a fog灯, its glass face painted black, and an eyepiece resembling a telescope. The entire unit is connected to a power supply carried on the soldier's back.
Among the most carefully-guarded secrets of the war, the "sniperscope" and "snooperscope" were demonstrated yesterday by the manufacturer, the Electronic Laboratories of Indianapolis. The army permitted the demonstration after it was learned that the Germans had used "night sight" equipment during the war.
Here's the Sniperscope works:
A fighter hears a sound. He points the Sniperscope into the darkness, peers into the eyepiece and turns on his power supply. He swings the weapon back and forth like an invisible searchlight until he sights the enemy.
The enemy soldier is unaware that he is surrounded by an aura of greenish light. (In the eyepiece all objects appear as various shades of green.)
The soldier takes a bead on the enemy through the eyepiece and fires his carbine.
Simple, isn't it?

"You only dreamed you wrote it." That's what Heinrich Himmler told Nora Waln, tomorrow's Honors convocation speaker, when she told him the manuscript for her book, "Reaching for the Stars," had been stolen from her home in Germany. Miss Walt had spent the years from 1934 to 1938 there with her English husband, George Osland-Hill, while he studied music.

Law Students' Kidnaping Pictured in New York Paper

'Hellzapoppin'in 'Skin of Our Teeth' At Fraser Tonight
"Help me! Help me! Save the human race!" Lily Sabina will cry tonight as the glacier threatens mankind in act one of "Skin of Our Teeth."
The play, by Thornton Wilder,
will be presented by an all-student
cast in Fraser theater at 8:15 p.m.
tonight, tomorrow, and Wednesday.
According to Prof. Allen C. Crafton, director, it is one of the most informal plays to be presented since "Beggar on Horseback," six years ago. The scenery, representing the George Antrobus home, is in constant danger of falling down, some of the acting takes place off the stage, and the actors frequently stop to argue among themselves or to discuss some point with the audience.
At the beginning of act three, an announcement is made that some of the players are sick. Stage workers and ushers are brought out to rehearse, and the play is resumed.
In the last scene, at the end of a war, Antrobus picks up one of his books and says, "We've come a long way. We've learned and we're learning." And he begins planning for the ages to come.
One of the actors of the present production has called it "Hellaz-poppin', with a swell idea which makes you want to think."
A.V.C. Founder To Speak On 'Veterans as Citizens'
Gilbert A. Harrison, one of the founders of the American Veterans committee, will speak to the K.U. chapter at 4:30 p.m. tomorrow in the men's lounge of the Union. His topic will be "Veterans as Citizens."
Veterans wishing to join A.V.C. can do so at room 202, Frank Strong, any morning or by contacting Richard Kroesing, Lane O, apartment 28, Sunflower.
Success Goes Hand-in-Hand With Being Chosen K.U. 'Honor Man'
Being chosen K.U. honor man is a sure-fire passport to success, judging by the careers of past honor men.
Ralph Waldo May's advancement from baggage clerk to construction supervisor with the army is due partly to his selection as honor man of 1944. Through an error, May was drafted from his civilian position as aeronautical engineer for the wind tunnel at Langley Field, Va., in August, 1944, and was sent overseas as an office clerk.
When his commanding officer, also a K.U. man, Maj. Gen. Ewart G. Plank, a student '18, discovered May's University record and 2.95 grade average in the School of Engineering, he had him transferred, May and a captain are now in charge of about 1,200 civilians and 25 army personnel in the Philippines.
Executives come out of honor man material, as evidenced by the first honor man, Paul Endacott, 1924, who is now vice-president of Phillips Petroleum company; Wallace James, 1925, an official with R.C.A.; and Arthur Cromb, 1930, treasurer of the Standard Steel Works in Kansas City.
These outstanding individuals aren't limited by geographical boundaries but have strayed as far as China and Afghanistan. Paul Moritz, 1839, is an educational leader in China and Robert Fluker, 1942, a teacher in Afghanistan.
The armed services have claimed several. Clair Wood, 1932, has remained a colonel in the regular army air forces, and Balfour S. Jefrey, 1928, a discharged army major in charge of labor personnel, is now an attorney in Topeka.
Their professions have extended over many fields. In 1934, Glenn Cunningham was graduated as honor man. Charles Haines, 1929, is an architect in New York, and Wren Gabel, 1931, is with the Eastman Kodak company. Raymond Nichols University executive secretary, was honor man in 1927.

The petition was filed Thursday by Roy G. Borgen, Dine-a-Mite proprietor, but no action has been taken because Hugh Means, judge of the district court, has been ill at home.
May 9 has been set by Judge Hugh Means for a hearing on a petition for a court order to restrain five Douglas County officers from coercing the recent "beer resolution" in the Dine-A-Mite a dine-and-dance place at 23rd and Louisiana streets.
Judge Means was in his office this morning, but expects to be out of the city tomorrow. Shortly before noon, John W. Brand, attorney for Mr. Borgen, told the Daily Kansan that he intended to ask the judge today to consider the petition for the restraining order which, if granted, would be effective until a hearing on the request for an injunction could be held. Mr. Brand explained that Judge Means might hold a hearing before he decides on the request for the restraining order.
The petition filed in district court Thursday by Roy G. Borgen, proprietor, asked for an injunction against county commissioners, Lou Griffith, M. N. Penny, Ed Johnson, County Attorney Robert Oyller, and Sheriff R. H. Skinner from enticing the rule of the board prohibiting dancing during hours when cereal malt beverages are sold.
The rule places him under duress, Mr. Borgen alleged, and has caused him to restrain his customers from pursuing a normal, customary, and acceptable behavior in his place of business, in that the board notified him that it would cancel his license to retail cereal malt beverages unless he stops his customers from dancing during the hours when beer is sold.
The plaintiff stated his belief that the board members are opposed to dancing, and that the rule is directed at dancing by individuals, and not at the proper regulation of the sale of beer.
Borgen said this rule is in effect an interference with the personal liberties of his customers and a violation of the 14th amendment to the Constitution of the United States in that it abridges the privileges and immunities of citizens. He added that it deprives the plaintiff of his property without due process of law, and denies to the plaintiff equal protection of the law, the pardon charges.
The rule under controversy was passed by the county commissioners Feb. 20, to state that dancing could not be permitted in an establishment licensed to sell beer. This was amended April 10, to state that dancing would be permitted between 8:30 p.m. and midnight providing that no beer was sold after 7:30 p.m. that same evening.
Dance Manager Post Open for Next Year
Applications for next year's dance manager must be mailed to Billie Marie Hamilton, 1244 Louisiana, before Saturday, Miss Hamilton, chairman of the social committee of the All-Student Council, said today.
Those sending in applications must include name, classification, qualifications, and other activities in which they have taken part at K.U. The social committee, Jane Peterson, Carroll McCue, Marguerita Kerscher, and George Darsie, will choose the new manager sometime next week.

Let Them Eat Cake
The black market has virtually taken over the meat industry. Consumers are throwing away more than a billion dollars a year on bootleg meat, according to the American Meat Institute. Farmers and grain dealers hold more than 300 million bushels of wheat in storage. In desperation the government has had to give bonuses to them to get that badly needed grain out of the bins. And recently a syndicated news picture showed a woman collapsing of hunger in a Berlin street.
About 1789 a young queen made history when she said, or is supposed to have said, "Let them eat cake," upon being told that the peasants had no bread. Then she and her court continued their mad, heartless debauchery. But at last the sufferers rose up, seized the government, and guillotined Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI.
The government can do nothing without the will of the people. And obviously individuals can do nothing alone, although humane deeds for the rest of the world depend on each person in the long run. But just as in the French revolution, the results of individual selfishness may destroy the government and our way of living as well.
The United States is in much the same position on a world scale that the nobility was in France in that day. Comparatively a young nation, she might do well to grow up and accept her responsibility before her immature follies lead to her downfall.
The eastern hemisphere has been ravaged beyond the understanding of some of us pampered Americans. Whether the fault of that destruction lies here or there is not a question to be considered now. Some almost bankrupt countries are forced to export clothing to us which their own people need badly in exchange for a little food which they absolutely cannot get along without.
Cutthroat competition has developed in Americans the instinct to be sure of getting returns on all investments and not to give up anything unless his neighbor will make the same sacrifice. So American pigs fatten on food which, if it had been correctly utilized, would have helped to raise the European diet above the starvation level.
Such dire need does horrible things to morale, and suffering may dry out human pity until the person who struggles to the position of having the upper hand is merciless. Since subordination of the conquered countries indefinitely is undesirable, particularly to those personally interested in having their sons come home, it seems wise to give them a desire for cooperation rather than for revenge.
In modern warfare neither side really wins. Some day ours could be the side that loses the most. If democracy cannot show that it offers freedom from want and fear, particularly to those who have seen no evidence of those benefits, it too may get the guillotine.—A.B.
Meat Packer 'Roasts' Senators Who Can't Judge Grade A Roasts
B FREDERICK C. OTHMAN
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
"Here," he told a dozen senators, "I'll show you."
Washington. (UP) — There was a rustling in the background when meat packer Leonard Meyer testified that the government's inability to decide what makes a good beef steak was ruining his business.
The paper-crumpling noises were being made by Meyer's fellow packer from Richmond, Va., James J. McSweeney, who had trudled two large boxes of meat into the agriculture committee room and now was cracking 'em open for the benefit of the hungry lawmakers.
"Ill take that one," said Sen. Allen J. Ellender of Louisiana, pointing at a particularly juicy rump roast under the nose of Chairman Elmer Thomas, of Oklahoma. Mr. Meyer moved it a little further from the gentleman from Louisiana. Mr. McSweeney kept hauling out roasts, steaks, shoulders, briskets, and sides of lamb.
Mr. Meyer stripped them of their wrappings and arranged them artistically until the senatorial table looked like a meat counter used to look when all you needed to buy meat was money. The senators gazed raptly upon this prodigality from a by-gone day, like patrons of the arts, while the pink-faced Mr. McSweeney made a speech.
He said the O.P.A.'s meat regulations had collapsed of their own complexity, that 90 per cent of the meat being eaten today was from the black market, and that even honest packers, like himself, were in the toils of the government because of their inability to tell whether a live
"Yes sir," added Mr. Meyer, a snail man with a diamond horseshoe on a loud necktie. "That is why we brought this meat along, to show you just what is happening to meat."
steer will make tender steaks or tough ones.
"Take this beautiful piece of choice beef," he cried. "It's got plenty of fat, marbling, youth, everything. Now we go to the U.S. government stamps on it."
He held up a mouth-watering, 10-pound rump roast.
"That's because the government graders look at a *piece* of meat and can't tell what kind of meat it is," he said. "One of 'em called this lovely piece of meat Grade B. I got his boss and he stamped it Grade A. See? Stamp them on the same piece of meat. Now. You can't make up their minds, how do you expect us to grade meat with the hide still on it?"
One stamp said it was Grade B meat. Another stamp said it was grade A.
He said the O.P.A. demanded that packers tell exactly the quality of the meat in a steer by looking at the animal. If the packer guesses wrong, he is penalized: sometimes he's taken to court, he said.
"No wonder there's a black market," Mr. Meyer exploded, sitting down in front of a crown roast.
"The gentleman from Louisiana seems to have his eyes on one of those roasts," commented Senator Thomas.
"Oh no," yelped Mr. Meyer, re-trieving his meat. "We'd leave this meat here gladly, but we're going to have to use it later on."
He and Mr. McSweeney rewrapped their roasts, folded their steaks and stole away.
Letters to the Editor
Not Students, But Alumni At Fault in Athletics—Moore
★
To the Daily Kansan: In the Wednesday Kansan, Bill Sims, the Kansan sports editor, placed considerable blame on K.U. students for their school being in the athletic doldrums. Being a student and a rabid sports enthusiast, I would like to defend my fellow students and former students of the University.
In his column, Bill says that student cooperation has always been a handicap on Mt. Oread. Is this statement justified? Agreed that during the last few war-torn years student enthusiasm for sports hit a new low. However, many of the students were trainees, sent here not of their own volition. All athletic programs were somewhat curtailed.
In pre-war days, Gwinn Henry praised the students of K.U. as the greatest he had ever seen even though his teams were losing regularly. Did this point toward student non-cooperation? K.U. students and sports followers have always wanted champions. They can have them, too, as witness the numerous basketball crowns the Jayhawkers have won.
The steps students can take toward getting champions are somewhat limited, as also are their resources in most cases. I believe if the University is to scale the athletic heights to championships, the first step is to obtain stronger alumni support, especially in a monetary way. A structure is only as strong as its foundation. K.U.'s foundation is its alumni.

University Fails To Support Baseball Team, Says Fan
It is also true that some of the instructors have threatened to flunk several members of the baseball team for not taking examinations scheduled on the day of a game. Why should the faculty show any preference for certain varsity sports over others? There was no such trouble for football and basketball players.
To the Daily Kansan: Our sports editor, Bill Sims, failed entirely to get at the root of the trouble in his diagnosis of the ills besetting K.U.'s baseball team. I am surprised that anyone at all goes out for baseball here at KU. Those who do, do so only because of a love for the game and not because of a desire to serve the school.
The University has failed to give the baseball team any support whatever. I don't blame men for not wanting to play baseball in uniforms and with equipment that was worn out before the war. Kansas State's baseball team came here with complete new uniforms.
The sports editor is correct when he says that the student body does not support the baseball team, but the blame does not rest entirely with the students. The majority probably don't know that we have a baseball team on the Hill. With the exception of two or three lines the other day, Sims' criticism of the baseball team in the April 24 issue is the first publicity the baseball team has received.
I suggest that the sports editor find the real trouble and also contribute his support before criticizing the student body for non-support and ball players for not going out for baseball.

'It's Still a Small World, Old Top,' English Brides Discover at K.U.
By ALVERTA NIEDENS (Daily Kansan Staff Writer)
They lived in the same borough. They knew the same people. They'd even dated the same boy. But two English brides had never met until they both came to live at Sunflower Village.
Mrs. Audrey Bradley and Mrs. Cynthia Rose got together for a typical English tea on the Rose's second wedding anniversary with the husbands taking a back seat while the wives chatted of Kettering, Northhamptonshire.
"It's only about a five-minute walk between our homes in Kettering, and here it is just four lanes over." the brides explained.
Mrs. Bradley arrived in Kansas a week ago today. Aubrey Bradley, her K.U. veteran husband, said, "I wondered about cleaning up the apartment, and whether she'd recognize me."
Audrey, in turn commented, "An army lefanant--you call it lieutenant—met me at the depot. 'Mrs. Bradley?' he said. I looked up at him and though, 'This man doesn't look much like my husband.'"
"I was very pleased," she said, speaking of her new home. "Of course I couldn't say otherwise. 4,500 miles is a long way."
Every bride was given a cook book on board ship. "But the names of the recipes were all different. Why, the cook book Brad has here only has one tart recipe. I got so disgusted with the bread they served on the ship, that I threw that cook book out of the port hole."
Mrs. Bradley was seasick for eight out of the 14 days she was on the Atlantic.
"I instead of bringing me something nice to eat like bread and butter, the first food they served me was a chop with suet on it that thick!" she said indicating three inches. "I hadn't seen a chop in five years. I was so seasick, I couldn't be home-sick." It has been seven years since she'd seen a banana.
"Everyone expects me to have an Oxford or a Cockney accent," she said, imitating both, "but I have neither. Northhamptonshire was voted as using the King's English this last year."
Audrey hummed "Personality" while she went about fixing tea. "I don't like these little bags; it's so lazy," she said. "I see I'm going to need a larger teapot, too."
Mentioning movies, she said, "You should see 'The Seventh Veil.' It is so British. How I loved Joseph Cotten in 'Love Letters.' So very English, the countryside, but the accent!" She grimaced, "The way he slapped the other officer on the shoulder, you'd never see a British officer do that."
"This American money, it’s awful. I go into a shop and ask the price of something. The clerk says it is $4.95, and then I stand there and figure it out in English money. But the clerks are more helpful over here. They are very reserved in England. It’s much easier to travel to England from America, because everyone is much more friendly here."
"Aren't they long roads?" she commented looking at the highway. "Ours are all corners."
Pulling up her hose, she asked,
“Aren’t ladders disgusting? I know you call them runners.” She also confided that she had a pair of

Both brides agreed that the Americans embarrassed them—especially in the fish and chip shops.
"Fish and chip shops are like your hamburger stands. Only they sell cooked fish and chips (sostring potatoes). And the Americans would go down the street holding a fish in their mouth eating first one and the other. That isn't done in England," they explained.

SPOTLIGHT SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
One of the biggest problems concerning the Big Six spring sports program should be brought up at the meeting of the faculty representatives and athletic directors at Lincoln, May 17.
There is far too much laxity in spring sports, both in participation and in the schedules. From year to year some schools do not participate in certain sports, and others play only limited schedules. Track is the only spring sport that has much emphasis placed on it.
Perhaps this is one reason why Big Six schools do not have really well-rounded athletic programs. If every sport had a full schedule and a championship that meant something, there would be a big increase in athletic interest in the conference schools.
If other conferences can maintain full athletic programs that draw the interest and support of students and alumni, why can't the Big Six do it? It seems to me that something should be done about this, and the best place and time to do it is at the meeting in May. We'll have to wait to see if the meeting is just a good gab fest, or if something worthwhile is accomplished.
Certainly no one can say that all the fault for the deplorable athletic situation rests on any one group, students, coaches, alumni, or conference officials. It is a mixture of all groups.
Students won't take much interest in athletics, unless the faculty and athletic department give their support. It is true that support is given by some faculty members, but there are still some who think athletics should be forbidden and make this evident. But this is another factor which should be corrected to help improve sports here.
When it comes to the athletic department, everyone has praise for what it has done the past year in trying to put Kansas in the first division of Big Six teams. But there are still some things which need to be done to help build up student and alumni interest.
For example, equipment and facilities for athletics could stand a lot of renovations. The football team next fall will be resplendent in new uniforms from head to toe, and this will be a big improvement. But what about the baseball team? Most of our players may have large patches on them. This certainly doesnt help the morale of the players.
It will take the co-operation of every group and every person interested in athletics to put K.U. on the top of the Big Six sports heap. We can do it if we all work together.
Equipment is being improved rapidly, but there is still much to be done. Of course, it will take time, and I believe that Ernie Quigley won't rest until Kansas has ample facilities to carry on a full sports program.

K.U. Beats Aggies Twice In Ninth
Coach "Red" Dugan's Jayhawker baseballers took two games from the Kansas State Wildcats Friday and Saturday at Manhattan to make the record read three victories and one defeat for the season. Both games were decided in the ninth inning.
Right-fielder Verl Anderson delivered a sharp triple to center field with two mates on base in the first half of the ninth inning to give the Jayhawkers an 8 to 6 victory in the first game. Anderson's smash scored first baseman Harold Stewart and pitcher Tom Saffell with the winning runs.
The Wildcat hurler, Carl Shapley, was struck on his pitching hand by a hard-hit ball in the fifth, and Kansas ganged up on him in the sixth for five runs to tie the score. Fillmore and Hart followed him to the mound, and Hart gave up the winning triple.
Saffell let the Wildeats down with five hits for his second triumph of the season, both over Kansas State.
The Jayhawkers had to stage another thrilling finish to take the second game, 10 to 9. Third baseman Dale Morrow scored the winning run when he beat out the Wildcat first baseman's throw to the plate in the first half of the ninth inning.
Kansas State, trailing 2 to 9, staged a 7-run rally in the last half of the eighth inning to tie the score. The Wildcats had the bases loaded when catcher Gryskiewicz grounded out to retire the side.
Then came Morrow's game-winning run, and the Jayhawkers checked the Wildcats in the bottom half of the ninth inning to take the game.

News .. of the World
lot to Assassinate MacArthur Revealed
Tokyo. (UP)—A plot to assassinate Gen. Douglas MacArthur by and grenades and pistol fire during Communist May Day celebration tomorrow, has been discovered by allied Headquarters Intelligence officers, it was announced officially to say.
A headquarters announcement said U.S. and Japanese military police were searching for the alleged ring-sadder, Hideo Takayama, of the Japanese overseas police force, on a tip from a fellow plotter whom Takaya unsuccessfully tried to poison. They hoped to take him into custody within 48 hours, a headquarters official said.
Milan. (UP)—Italian police announced today they had discovered an arsenal of Russian-made arms and munition, together with two radio transmitters and receivers, in Milan. Authorities believed the arsenal belonged to a local political party. No connection had been established between the arms cache and the unrest arising after the theft of Benito Mussolini's body from a Milan cemetery.
Russia May Consent To U.S. Treaty Plan
Paris. (UP)—Russia has indicated willingness to place the American 8-year treaty for German disarmament on the Big Four conference genda, it was learned today, possibly in return for concessions to Soviet point of view.
An American spokesman said the conference has adopted Molotov's suggestion that uncontroversial problems be dealt with first and more difficult questions later.
He said this was the reason the council has agreed to delay consideration of the Dodecanese issue and of the American 25-year treaty proposal.
Navy medical officers said headquarters of the system would be located at Guam. A 300-bed hospital is already under construction there.
Washington. (UP) - The Navy has established a chain of hospitals and floating "ambulances" in the Pacific to provide modern medical care for 100,000 natives who have relied chiefly on witch doctors.
Barcelona. (UP) — A bomb exploded today at the base of a monument erected in 1939 to commemorate the victory of Generalissimo Francisco Franco in the Spanish Civil war.
The monument was not seriously damaged by the blast, but the statue, a bronze figure of a woman representing victory, was overturned by the explosion.
Washington. (UP)—The lady who signs the president's monthly pay check retires tomorrow at the age of 70.
10. She is Mrs. Helen B. Smith, treasury department worker who has been writing out the checks in long hand since 1938. She signs each one "H. B. Smith."
Jews Go On Strike Against U.S. Troops
Landsberg, (UF)—Four thousand Jewish residents of the Landsberg displaced persons camp went on a hunger strike today, shouting "down with Americans" in an upoarious dispute with occupation troops.
Approximately 1,000 Jews marched to the camp gates shouting protests against the arrest of 20 comrades following Sunday's riot against Germans at the camp.
The Play Is Fine But Who Knows What It's About?
BY VERA STROBEL and CHARLES ROOS (Daily Kansan Staff Writers)
Lily Sabina, the maid, isn't the only one who doesn't understand the play, "Skin of Our Teeth." A first-nightger audience which saw Thornton Wilder's 3-act comedy last night in Fraser theater left fully entertained but with a big question as to just what the play was about. They saw it but couldn't believe it.
The play will be presented again tonight and tomorrow at 8:15 p.m.
"Skin of Our Teeth" traces George Antrobus, the average human being, through fire, flood, and frost, not to mention a couple of detours with Lily Sabina, the eternal vamp, and leaves him still optimistic about the future at the final curain.
Built around the idea of the indestructibility of mankind, the play races from the Ice age to Atlantic City beauty contests, while the lights flash off and on, the players wander down into the audience, and parts of the scenery threaten to topple over and mash the cast.
Although the literary antics of Mr. Wilder, in breaking all the rules of play production, placed a heavy load on amateur actors, the play was well received by a near-capacity audience.
Beverly Sus Presley, who portrayed Lily Sabina, the giddy maid, was the outstanding character and "stole the play." Herk Harvey in the difficult four-character role of George Autrobus carried out the mission. George Howland was splendid as the dull, never changing wife, Maggie.
Mary Booth as Gladys and Robert Mickle as Henry, the children, held up their parts during the play. Edith Fleming Lessenden came as a surprise in the second act as the fortune teller, whose portrayal carried an otherwise dull and dragging act.
Probably the high spot was the final scene of act one, with the glacier moving down on the Antrobus home. Maggie tries to convince George that the world is worth an attempt at saving, while Lily Sabina conducts a chorus of neighbors in "Jingle Bells."
A presentation of the department of speech and drama, "Skin of Our Teeth" is directed by Prof. Allen Crafton. Supporting players are Fred Thomas, JoAnn Tindall, Margaret Gosney, Louine Brown, Mary Schmidt, Mary Ella Barber, Bettyl Cepesde, Susie Bartlett, John Eliott, Nicholas Schmidt, Vincent Baker, Gerald Wilson, Robert Williams, Haney Scott, Buford Trible, and Don Harilins.
Summer Session Schedules Are Ready
Schedules of classes for the summer session, to begin June 18, are available at the College, registrar's offices or at most of the offices of other schools of the University, Dean George B. Smith, director of summer session, announced today.
James K. Hitt, registrar estimates that 4,000 students will attend the summer session. Students in school now will not need to register for the term. he said.
Eighty-five afternoon courses are offered this year, most of them laboratories. Only one afternoon class was scheduled last year. There will be 69 7:30 classes, most of them five hour courses lasting two hours, but no 12:30 classes will be offered.
The program for the session is:
June 18, 19, 20, orientation for all new undergraduate students; June 20, registration; June 21 and 22, registration and enrollment; June 24, classes begin; July 4, holiday; August 15, 16, 17, final examinations.

Donald Alderson, 1945 Honor Man, Had 'Cooperative Spirit, Impeccable Character'
Being chosen Honor Man for the class of 1945 is just one more honor for Donald Alderson, who chalked up more than his share of honors during his four years at the University.
President of the Independent Student association during his junior year, last year he was president of
1930-2024
DONALD ALDERSON
the senior class, and a member of Sachem, honorary organization for senior men. He served as a student representative on the World War II Memorial selection committee, and is a trustee of the University Memorial association.
He held a Carruth hall scholarship for four years, being graduated from the School of Business with 126 credit hours and 239 grade points. He was a Carruth hall proctor, and a member of the Inter-Residence Hall council.
"Don had a fine co-operative spirit." Dean Frank T. Stockton of the School of Business commented today, "He was extremely loyal to the University. He had good balance and judgment, he was unselfish, and he was interested not only in his own field but in all aspects of the University. He kept abreast of what was going on in the world, and was recognized as a young man of impeccable character."
Alderson is employed by the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company at Topeka, and plans to be married in June to Betty Jean Whitney, Pharmacy senior, a member of Mortar Board, and president of the School of Pharmacy and of Sigma Kappa.
K.U. Pays Tribute To Top 200 Student Leaders
The University recognized its leaders in scholarship and service today in the annual Honors convocation in Hoch auditorium.
More than 200 students were named as tops in their studies and in leadership and activities. Miss Nora Wahn, author and traveler, spoke on "The Challenge Life Makes to Every American Citizen."
Miss Wahn spoke of the conditions in Europe where some people still receive the luxuries of the world while others are dead in the streets from starvation.
Donald Alderson, Business graduate, was named Honor Man of 1945, and John Kirk received the annual Phi Sigma biology award. New members of Mortar board, Phi Beta Kappa, Tau Beta Pi, Pi KappaLambda, Delta Phi Delta, Mu Phi Epsilon, and Sigma Xi were announced.
"Even if all the food were evenly divided," she pointed out, "there still would be starvation. We alone cannot cure that situation, but we can help to stir others into acting."
The complete list of honors is as follows:

Freshman Show May 30 Canceled
To avoid competition with the Memorial Drive benefit show, plans for the freshman class show have been abandoned, Elizabeth Vander-Smissen, secretary, said today.
"The class will sponsor a housewarming for the proposed recreation farm instead, if the University decides to undertake that project," Miss VandertSmissen announced.
The show, which was suggested last November as a means of promoting class spirit and unity, was to be given May 30. A program had been planned and talent was requested from each organized house.

Freedom Of The Seas
On the surface, the recent Iranian dispute was based upon the threat of Russian troops in that country but a deeper reason was the belief that those troops would become a spearhead for further soviet penetration into the middle-east.
World trade will be a vital issue in the future and Russia is determined to have its place in that trade and thereby strengthen her position as a world power. We cannot fairly oppose that desire merely on the basis of ideologies for we have already affirmed our support of free international trade.
Continual jockeying for control of the world's key points of world commerce will only prevent the establishment of unity and cooperation which is so indispensible to any preservation of peace and security.
Both of these issues are vigorously opposed by the British Empire. The British have lost much in the war and the loss of their control of the Middle East waterways would be a heavy blow.
There is one alternative that can eliminate much of this perpetual discord. That is to put the strategic points of the world's waterways under United Nations control. Those points should include the Suez canal, the Panama canal, Gibraltar, the Dardanelles and perhaps Singapore.
One of the thorniest problems before the current peace conference in Paris will be Russia's request for a suitable outlet on the Mediterranean.
These vital points should be internationalized and thereby open to free use on equal terms to all nations.
The United States finds itself in the middle of this dilemma. The first inclination is to side with Britain but on the other hand we must strengthen our relations with Russia if we are to preserve anything of the Big Three unity.
On the other hand, it seems perfectly logical that Russia should have a suitable outlet to the Mediterranean to enable it to take its place in international trade.
This would go far toward showing the Soviet government that we mean more than lip-service to the Atlantic Charter. In that document Roosevelt and Churchill pledged "to further the enjoyment by all States, great or small, victor or vanquished, of access, on equal terms, to the trade and to the raw materials of the world which are needed for their economic prosperity" and "... enable all men to traverse the high seas and oceans without hindrance."
This issue and that of trusteeship should be given early consideration and constructive action by the United Nations to clear the air of underlying friction that is thwarting international cooperation.
Plutonium Pile May Yield Steam To Make Coal Argument Boil Dry
By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN
(United Press Staff Correspondent
Washington. (UP)—I'm beginning to think John L. Lewis and the coal mine owners, now entering their fourth week of snarling at each other, don't read the newspapers. They're acting like they never heard of the plutonium pile.
This is a gadget, gentlemen, that splits atoms in a business-like way. A chopped atom gets so hot it easily boils water. That makes steam. Catch on, coal men?
While you fellows sit in suites with picture windows and mirrored fireplaces at the Shoreham hotel, charging each other with bad faith in keeping the bituminous mines closed, the scientists are figuring on maybe closing some of 'em forever
hissing some of them forever.
The atomic steam plant is in the works. The researchers decide how to control the stuff so nobody will make bombs (and men of good will expect that will not be too long), the plutonium piles will begin to heat the steam that turns the world's wheels.
Five years, maybe? Ten? Not more certainly, before you coal fellows start losing customers. I may be pacing the green-carpeted halls of the Shoreham then and leaning against the raspberry-colored walls, waiting for the Amalgamated Association of Atomic Activators, a union of the future, to demand shorter hours and higher pay.
If that happens, I'll be back where I am today, trampling the rug in front of suite 100-G. My feet are tired, friends, but I have a suggestion:
Kiss and make up and start worrying about those atoms.
I got to thinking about this when I joined 12 other news men at 10 a.m. for a chat with John L. He sat in an
easy chair by a plate-glass window overlooking the foliage in Rock Creek park. He said he had a couple of things to do and didn't think he'd get around to the morning's session between the mine workers and the owners.
The rest of the negotiators met in a similar suits on the floor below, where they sat on plum-colored velvet chairs in front of a white marble fireplace and, I must presume, insulted each other. At 1 p.m., out came Paul Fuller, the government conciliator, who said nothing was accomplished. "Don't put me on the spot," he begged. "I won't answer questions; I can't." Then he got into the elevator.
The operators stayed inside. At 1:30 p.m., the door to 100-G swung open. Thirteen reporters filed in and tried out those velvet seats. Mine still was warm. The air was hot from too much humanity and too many medium-grade cigars; the ash trays were heaped. The mine owners had gone to one of perhaps six other rooms in the suite. They wouldn't come out to talk.
He didn't either.
Next out were 10 of Louis' assistants. They looked glum. "Nope," said one, "we got nowhere."
The reporters went to the union's suite, where Lewis had met them earlier. Here was the fireplace with the magnificent window, the beautiful furniture. Lewis was gone, but some of his negotiators were there. They read the operators' statement "Those bums," muttered a union leader.
That's it, miners, managers, stockholders. The scientists are perfecting the atom, plants; the statesmen are drawing up the rules. Looks to me like coal may become an interesting mineral in the museum.
Rock Chalk Talk
By JOAN HARRIS
No connection of course. Yes, that was a spring dance Glenn Williams was doing down Massachusetts street about 10:30 Friday night. Though Sylvia Small declares he was just like a judge, we are reminded of Red Skelton and the local cinema—"Guzzer's gin comes in two convenient sizes, the jumbo size and the college size."
One way to lose weight. While in a meeting in the basement of Green hall, Roundman Stanton decided he had big business with Glenn Warner. Upon calling at the Phi Kappa Psi house, he was told that Glenn had wandered down to a show and no, they didn't know which one.
Stanton patiently called all four and the Mite for good measure, setting a score of public servants in action calling for Glenn. Finally he gave up and returned to his meeting to find Warner calmly sitting by the window in the basement. He had been across the hall at a picture sponsored by the German club in the Little theater.
Dem bums mean business. League leaders from PT-7 take the greatest care of their pitcher, Luke Burhe, looking out for his interests while he is (theoretically) in training. One night, therefore, Earl Krieger called at the Sigma Kappa house and, in a growl punctuated by snorts, he told overworked ballplayers had massaged it, fed rumors, ball but stood on their heads for Burch only to have his beautiful morale shattered by some SK who had the nerve to call their hero a "big stuffed shirt."
How appropriate. When the women's glee club trekked over to Leavenworth to entertain the boys behind the eight ball recently, they sang a little ditty which went like this: "If I had the wings of an angel, over these prison walls I would fly."
Baaaa. When the Theta's say, "We have the most terrible time getting him out of the house," they are referring to the little tattletale gray lamb the Sigma Chi's left on their second floor landing over the weekend. The only comment the SX's will make is, "Baaaa."
The Sig Alfs held their annual violet hunt Saturday and from 1 to 1 'tis said that not a single purple posey was unearthed.
Floral notes. Chi O's were given the nod Saturday when Delt pledges were faced with the dilemma of picking dandelions throughout the day. Calling on their West Campus friends, they asked for the pledges one at a time, kidnapped them, and set them to work on the offensive flowers.
OFFICIAL BULLETIN
That's gratitude for you. The Gamma Phi's were among the first to take advantage of the serenade season when they drove over to sing at the Delta Tau's one moonlit night. Ever eager, the fellows invited their visitors in. The Gamma Phi's, attired for retiring, declined the invitation and locked themselves in the car. Then the Delt's rushed out and lifted up the car bodily and carried it around the premises.

The harrassed look seen on many coed faces this week may come from due notebooks and term papers. In all probability, however, it comes as the result of having dropped off to sleep during the daily sunbath, and "Oh my back—don't touch it."

Have Sincerity, Faith Humility To Lead VanderWerf Advises
Leadership as a responsibility rather than an honor was emphasized by Dr. Calvin VanderWerf at the first meeting of the Y.W.C.A. Leadership Training course in the Union Monday.
Open 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m.
411 Fourteenth Street
The three most important qualities of leadership, Dr. VanderWerf explained, are deep sincerity and true motive, indestructible faith in others for what they are and for what they may become, and humility in never asking anyone to do something you would not do yourself.
Thirty-six women are taking the course, Mariette Bennett, chairman said.
The second meeting, discussing techniques of group discussions and committee meetings, will be held in the women's lounge of the Union at 7:30 p.m. today.
The meeting Thursday night discussin leadership in the Y.W.C.A. and Girl Reserves will be open to all students, Miss Bennett announced. "It will be of special benefit to those students who will teach in schools next year where they may be in charge of Girl Reserve groups," she added.

How to Stay Out of the Hospital
.
By R. I. CANUTESON, M.D.
(Director, University Health Service)
A little knowledge about medical facts often engenders unreasonable fear. This is particularly true about cancer.
Cancer has achieved the place of number two cause of death because more people now escape the contagious diseases of early years and live to the cancer ages, and diseases such as tuberculosis and pneumonia that formerly were high-ranking killers have been pushed down the ladder by the same control measures that are now being applied to cancer.
Cancer has been neglected, partly because of public superstition and partly because of ignorance. Cancer is not contagious, so it presents a different public health problem than tuberculosis. Like tuberculosis it is often insidious in onset. At present, there are no simple methods for mass surveys as we have for tuberculosis.
But there is at hand sufficient knowledge in diagnosis and treatment of cancer to make enormous progress in its control if the barriers of ignorance, fear and neglect are broken down.
About 2 per cent of cancer deaths occur before age 25 years. Generally speaking, cancer is a disease of middle life and old age, but like tuberculosis, it often starts in younger age groups. Like tuberculosis it should be diagnosed and treated early.
Up to the present time, cures are reported in from 30 per cent to 68 per cent of cancer cases, depending upon the type, location and stage when diagnosed. Using only present methods of treatment, the rate of recovery can be materially raised if diagnosis is made at the onset of the first symptoms. And progress in scientific knowledge of causation and cure of cancer is advancing rapidly.
Do not assume, because these symptoms are present, that you have cancer and are marked for an early exit. The symptoms may be harmless but let your doctor decide. Early diagnosis and treatment spell doom for cancer.
Warning signals requiring investigation are persistent lump, repeated bleeding from body openings, sores that do not heal, or progressive change in color or size of moles or birthmarks.

SPOTLIGHT ON SPORTS
By BILL SIMS
There are several points concerning the Letters to the Editor in Monday's Kansan upon which I would like to comment.
In Robert Roy Moore's letter, the fact that Roy Henry said during his coaching days that K.U. students were the greatest he had ever seen though his teams were losing regularly, was brought out.
This is true, and it also is true that student support as spectators always has been very good. But there were several men on the campus during Henry's tenure as head coach who could have made the varsity team, or certainly would have strengthened the reserves. It is also true that were several fine footballers on the campus last fall who played intramural football instead of varsity.
I don't call this co-operation with the athletic program, and I don't believe anyone else would do so. With these men out for the team, Kansas might have been a better than average club and might have climbed into the first division of the Big Six.
Mr. Moore brings up the part of the alumni in regard to the athletic situation at KU. This is a big factor, and I agree that we must obtain stronger alumni support.
It has improved a lot since Ernie Quigley has been in the saddle, and I believe that he is building one of the strongest alumni organizations for athletic support in this part of the country.
I agree whole heartedly with "A Baseball Fan" in his comment concerning the faculty. As I said Monday, there are some faculty members who believe that athletics should be abandoned. This is certainly detrimental to the sports program, and it undoubtedly has some bearing on the attitude of the students.
The baseball team has compiled a good record this season with three victories and one defeat, and I think we have a good team. But I also believe that we could have had a stronger team if several good ball players on the campus had gone out for the team.
When Ed Head pitched his no-hit, no-run game for the Brooklyn Dodgers recently, a former Jayhawk athlete was on the receiving end of Head's pitches.
Ferrel Anderson played baseball and football at KU, before he signed a professional baseball contract in 1939. His home is Maple City, and he was discharged from the service just two months before the season started.
When Mickey Owen jumped to the Mexican league, Anderson was thrown in to catch Kirby Higbe for the Dodgers. He caught Higbe against the Giants that day, and he's been the Dodger catcher since.
Y.M. Meets Thursday
A Y.M.C.A. meeting, open to all campus men will be held at 7:30 p.m. Thursday in the Kansas Room. Luther Buchele will act as master of ceremonies, Wendell Nickell will speak on "The Y and the Student". Prof. Calvin Vanderwerf will speak on "The Y and the University," and Ned Linearge will speak on "The Y and You."

Jayhawkers Seek Fourth Diamond Victory; Netters Tie, Golfers Lose at Oklahoma
The Jayhawker baseballers will be out to garner their fourth victory of the season when they entertain the Sedalia Army Air base team at 3:30 p.m. tomorrow on the home field.
The Jayhawkers have found their batting eyes and promise plenty of trouble for any team on the schedule. Kansas made 23 hits in two games with Kansas State last week, and is expected to send out a heavy barrage of base blows in every game. day at Norman when Roy Sheaf and
Tom Saffell may get the call to pitch tomorrow. Saffell hurled a complete game against the Aggies, and also had relief duty in the second game. Coach "Red" Dugan may give him a rest, and, if he does, Bob Gilmore probably will be the starting choice.
Jayhawker fielding is still spotty, but the team is coming along fast. If the Crimson and Blue team can improve their fielding and keep up their heavy hitting, they may finish the season with only one defeat marring their record. If they can do this, they will rank at the top of the Big Six standings.
Probable Kansas starting lineup:
Anderson, rf; Pritchard ss; Morrow,
3b; Hogan, cf; Hayden, lf; White, 2b;
Stewart, 1b; Putz, c; Saffell or Gil-

K.U. Leads Big Six Tennis
Jayhawker netmen came from behind to gain a surprising 3-3 tie against the Oklahoma Sooners Monday at Norman when Roy Shoaf and Bob Groom staged a blazing finish to win their doubles match.
Shoaf and Groom also won their singles matches to garner all the K.U. points.
Kansas kept its undefeated season record intact, and remains on top of the Big Six conference standings. The Sooners had a much stronger team than the one Kansas defeated here 4-2 last week.
Linksmen Lose, $ 13\frac{1}{2}-4\frac{1}{2} $
Coach William Shannon's Jayhawkier linksmen lost to the Oklahoma Sooner golfers $13\frac{1}{2}$ to $4\frac{1}{2}$ Monday on the Oklahoma City Golf and Country club course.
This was the same score by which O.U. defeated Kansas at Kansas City recently. Coe, Oklahoma, was medalist with a 2-under-par 69.
