Around Campus Flag Thefts Continue
Theft of the flags in Strong Hall continues.
According to Leo Ousdahl, assistant superintendent of the KU Physical Plant, the number of flags stolen this year show a marked increase over previous years. Five flags have been stolen from the rotunda in Strong plus the Kansas flag in front of Strong.
Two flags were stolen last month.
United Nations, Belgium, Canada, Thailand, Russia, and Kansas flags have been stolen since the beginning of the fall semester.
Ousdahl said that this month the new flag of Kuwait will join the 85 flags now hanging in the rotunda.
The Kuwait flag is a combination of one vertical black stripe and three horizontal bars of red, white, and green.

"The principal role it plays is to produce a degenerative condition in the heart. This is called necrosis and refers to the presence of dead tissue areas." Prof. Wenzel said.
"THE RECENT FEDERAL government report on smoking went only as far as it had to go. It failed," Prof. Wenzel said, "to indict smoking for what it really does."
Prof. Wenzel started his research on cigarette smoking in 1953. He found the occurrence of heart disease in the Norwegian people during Nazi rule to be very low. "I turned up the fact that the importation of tobacco during those years was down to zero," he said.
"I gave up smoking in 1958 when the research I was doing started to prove that nicotine was definitely a factor in causing heart disease."

Smoking is just a slow way of committing suicide, Duane Wenzel, acting dean of the School of Pharmacy said.

Smoking Described as Suicide
At first, Prof. Wenzel's research was sponsored by the Tobacco Institute Research Committee. Since then he has had grants from the Life Insurance Medical Research Fund, KU, and the U.S. Public Health Service. The latter two groups are still supporting his work.
"ONE OF THE BIGGEST problems is to develop techniques to study the effects of nicotine on animals, Prof. Wenzel said, "This is a problem because rats refuse to smoke. They cannot be put into experimental chambers because they either hold their breath or become asphyxiated."
This problem is solved by giving animals with induced heart damage nicotine in their water. Rats drink at intervals similar to those of a person smoking cigarettes, Wenzel explained. And like people, rats get the "tobacco habit."
"Since it is impossible to convince
Prof. Wenzel's advice to cigarette smokers is to quit. They should at east try to cut down smoke inhala-
everybody to quit smoking." Prof. Wenzel said. "Scientists are going to have to look for some drugs which will prevent the damage done by smoking."

AWS, Magazine Seeks KU's 'Best Dressed Girl'
Prof. Wenzel will present a paper on the role of nicotine in cardiovascular disease at an international conference on preventive cardiology at the University of Vermont in August.
Thirty-one candidates from the organized women's living groups will be selected this week for competition in the 1964 "Best Dressed Girl" contest sponsored by the AWS and Glamour magazine.
The 31 candidates will be interviewed by a panel of 10 judges Sunday and ten finalists will be selected, Janet Duncan, Ottawa junior and chairman of the AWS committee for the contest, said.
The judges, whose names are being withheld, are campus leaders who are "conscious of trends and fashions." Miss Duncan said.
The 10 finalists and the other 21 nominees will be presented at 3:00 p.m. February 23, in the ballroom of the Kansas Union.
The winner from KU will go to New York to compete with girls from several hundred U.S. colleges and universities for a place among Glamour's "Ten Best Dressed College Girls," Miss Duncan said.
The "Best Dressed Girl" will be selected from the 10 finalists February 23.
Girls will be judged on poise and good "clothes sense." "Clothes sense" is matching one's dress to fit the personality," she said.
Last year Martha Yankee, Wichita sophomore, placed as one of Gla-

Cigarettes Put Out At Medical Center
Dr. C. Arden Miller, Dean of the school, ordered them out yesterday. Miller said the move had been requested for some time by Dr. C. Frederick Kittle, a medical center surgeon, who has done much research on the effects of smoking.
KANSAS CITY—(UPI)—Cigarette vending machines were being removed today from buildings at the University of Kansas Medical Center on doctor's orders.
