THE JAY HAWKER Jayhwker Undercover Some of the perennial campus features took a back seat this issue in favor of a subject which we hope is making it ' s last appearance in any Jayhawker maga- Our cover man and cover photographer for this issue have a lot in common. Jim Kennedy, above, well-entitled to his homing pigeon discharge button, spent eight months overseas in the European Theatre, and has two purple hearts. He was a Business junior here when he left in 1943, got his discharge June 7. Hank Brown, who took the excellent cover shot, was a navy man, and also left the Hill as a junior in 1943. While still in cadet training, he was injured and spent six months in a navy hospital in Long Beach. He later enlisted with the regular navy, spent another six months in a pho- tographic school at Pensacola, and re- ceived his medical discharge last August. zine the returning veterans. The 10 students (pages 18, 20, 22) are a few of those who took time out to win the war and are back in school carrying books instead of mess kits. Capt. Kenneth Postlethwaite, a K.U. graduate in 1939 and former head of the publicity department, now stationed in Ft. Monmouth, N. J. with the Special Services, graciously agreed to write our opening arti- cle, The Return of the Natives, (p. 15) . It ' s about the veteran from a service- man ' s point of view, and under the vivid humor and cynicism you ' ll find material guaranteed to be thought-provoking. The contributor ' s col- umn is sparked by some old-timers. Mary Morrill, editor of the Jayhawker for a year and a half, reviews the coking technique in The Verbal Spike, (pp. 46, 47) , insists that the information didn ' t come from experience. R. J. Atkinson, who has been called upon by four successive Jayhawker editors in as many years, kept up his reputation with Freshmen Women (p. 29). It may or may not have been the cause for his four-day stay in Watkins hospital. Pat Penney, running a close second with the Regis- trar ' s office for collecting names, found time to write the Sense of Humus (pp. 6, 8) , in addition to The Bill of Rights, (p. 18) ... and G. . Joe, (p. 20) . Another one of our claims to fame lies in Dodie Sulzman, last year ' s managing editor of the Daily Kansan, and now Editor-in-Chief. In spite of being a second semester senior, she still managed all the dirty work connected with being editorial associate, pol- ished off the rough corners on more stories than we care to tell. Elaine Thalman, also one of last year ' s staff mem- bers, came through with flying colors when the last- minute squeeze play on this issue began. When things really look hopeless, it ' s the discovery of new talent that keeps the staff ' s collective chin off the floor. Keith Wilson, freshman, and Bunny Lawler,
