RUM, EDITOR • DICK CARMEAN, BUS. MGR. RECOMMENDED READING Meeting a deadline two weeks after the opening of school presented many difficulties, but thanks to a hard-working, understanding staff, the obstacles were overcome and the first issue of the 59th JAYHAWKER is a reality. Of special value and interest is Betty Sara Brothers ' compilation of the University ' s World War II fatalities which follow the annual ' s dedication. Hours of time-con- suming labor were spent gleaning the data from the files of the Alumni Association, and only those persons whose deaths have been confirmed by their immediate families are included. Gordon Thomas ' dedication poetry was written especially for this issue and Fraser English department critics have already pronounced it professional. If you ' re interested in the heavier style of writing, don ' t miss Dr. A. H. Turney ' s AN OPTIMIST LOOKS AT THE FUTURE, and the pro and con student arguments con- cerning the possibilities of war with Russia. Off go the Editor ' s cap and shirt and anything else appro- priate to more short story writers like Bob Minich and Keith Wilson. For slap-happy humor you just can ' t beat OTHELLO and NEMBUTAL JONES. And as pictures make the magazine, there aren ' t enough superlatives to express the admiration we feel for excellent photographers like Hank Brown and Bob Graham. Making short-notice trips to Kansas City and Topeka with- out a word of complaint, both of these men deserve more than a lion ' s share of credit for the pictures in this issue. Yogi Williams ' professional-like cartooning can cer- tainly speak for itself, and after a glance at Frank Miller s caricatures, you know he must be good. The editor especially delights in pictorial feature stories like THE ROARING TWENTES, SAME SONG- 81ST VERSE, and THE JAYHAWKER GOES TO A WEDDING. All in all, it should be enough to say we ' ve eliminated most of what we didn ' t like. Just take off from here on your own.

The culmination of four months of planning, it ' s a four-color shot of new Lindley Hall as seen from across Chi 0 circle Those who saw the sample annual binder in the registra- tion line will recognize the parallel theme of design and lettering in the lower right- hand corner. With a view to the value of an annual ten years hence, we have diverged from the previous partiality of editors for Cover Girls and Cover Boys. Next Issue With the printer ' s breath still warm on the backs of our necks, we almost shudder to think of repeating the delir- ious whirl in another few weeks. Nevertheless, the show must go on and the second number will specialize in Christmas, Home - Coming, more pictorial features, win- ter beauty scenes, and the broad subject of Women. The 1 9 4 7 JAYHAWKER covers are scheduled for dis- tribution with the second issue providing the manu- facturers deliver according to contract specifications.
