Owl Co-Editor Loses Wallet, Shrugs It Off
After waiting patiently for three long months, Neil Clemans, co-editor of the Trojan Owl, rereived his overdue GI subsistence check yesterday, only to cash It and lose the money and his wallet a few minutes later.
“This is at least one means of notifying my creditors that I won’t be able to meet my obligations,” said Clemans with a rueful smile.
“Until I can find my wallet I guess my friends will have to bear the brunt of my living costs”, he added.
The wallet also contained a driver’s license, title to a car, and a photo of a girl in a bathing suit (whose name and address Clemans refuses to disclose). A reward will be offered to the finder who returns the wallet and the photo to the Owl office.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2. <U.P) — The government today put square-1} up to John L. Lewis the task of defending himself in federal court tomorrow aaginst a charge that his United Mine Workers (AFL)) strike might force 5,000.000 workers into idleness and result in a major disaster to the country's, economy and welfare.
Judge T. Alan Goldsborough, who sought to avert the walkout of 400,-000 miners by issuing an injunction against Lewis and the union, indicated that he would decide quickly whether the defendants were guilty of contempt for ignoring it.
A finding of guilt could mean jail or a fine, or both, for the massive, shaggy-browed Lewis, and a heavy fine for the union.
U. S. CLOSES CASE
The government, racing against time in the face of a cold wave sweeping the coal-hungry eastern 'seaboard, closed its case against Lewis late today after introducing testimony that a prolonged strike would cripple steel production, rail transportation, and shunt down many industries which must have soft coal to survive.
Secretary of Interior Julius A. Krug, who signed a contract with Lewis and the UMW last May, was the final government witness. Earlier. he told a house committee that within five or six days the now-idle big inch and little big inch wartime pipelines would be carrying 50.000.000 cubic feet of natural gas daily from the southwest to the middle west and east to provide a small measure of relief.
STATE COOPERATION
As Lewis’ battery of attorneys prepared to open his defense, a majority of the country’s 48 governors assured Krug that they were cooperating in the campaign to conserve coal. Twenty-six governors advised him that they had taken emergency action. He addressed another appeal to the remainder to act now “to forstall for as long as possible the catastrophe facing the nation.”
The government, pursuing a “no retreat" policy against Lewis adop-(Continued on Page Two)
No Lunch Today At Town, Gown
The cafeteria in Town and Gown foyer will be closed for lunch today. This is made/necessary in order to serve luncheon to the members of Town and Gown. The cafeteria will re-open to students at 5:30 p.m., according to Robert D. Fisher, financial vice-president.
The first, NROTC. has the broad er age requirements. A candidate must not be less than 17 or more than 21 years of age on July 1947 to be eligible. In addition to his regular course he will be re quired during the four years to take 24 semester hours of naval science He will wear civilian clothes except during drill periods. All educational expenses, including tuition, will be paid by the navy.
SUMMER COURSES
Two summer cruises and one summer of aviation training will complete his schedule, at which time he will receive his B.A. degree and a commission as ensign in the navy or second lieutenant in the ma rines.
An important feature of the plan is that students already in college will not revert to freshman status once accepted but will stay in their present class. It is also possible to continue on into graduate work within the four-year limitation.

Modern Art s Weaknesses Is Rogers' Lecture Topic
“Art, if it is going to live and have lasting value has to deal with universal problems,” Millard B. Rogers, assistant profe£»ior#of fine arts, said yesterday. An artist has to paint something that is alive and a problem of the day. Therefore he cannot concern himself with how many angels can sit on the edge of a pin
as artists once could.’’
Professor Rogers, who will discuss “The Lack of Content in Modern Art,” in the final LAS Wednesday lecture tomorrow at 3:15 p.m. in the art and lecture room. University library, said that “content” to the layman means subject matter, and to the artist it means form.
REALTY VS. ABSTRACTION
“The artist is very unwilling to compromise his position that the meat of art is form, and he is unjustly scornful of his public who misunderstands what he is trying to do.” he said. “The public demands subject matter as content and sees no possibility of art possessing anything else.’’
Stressing ihe thought that the layman has a literal or simple-minded interpretation of what he thinks art should contain. Professor Rogers said that most persons want either prettified imitations of ideas which they consider beautiful, such as sunsets, or likenesses of familiar objects or people. The artist, he said, is far more concerned with the abstract concepts of beauty such as rhythm or continuity.
“The public is, as a rule, untutored in abstract content of art and since it is naive as to abstractions it is reluctant to try to acquire such a point of view.”
Y Women Work To Achieve Coal For New House
Women of the Y are working to reach the $100,000 goal for their “Hospitality house” this week through hot dog candy, and pop corn sales on campus.
The new building not only will serve members of the Y but it will benefit the entire campus. All organizations may use it facilities. The building is to feature the only banquet room in the university and offer room for committee meetings.
Julia Milikan, chairman of the drive, stressed the need for a larger house. The Y now has 1200 members that it will be able to aid much better in its new building.
A small amount of the fund has already been accumulated through various donations. Each member of the cabinet and council has donated $10, regular members have giyen $5, and the AWS has donated their proceeds from Taxi day.
The schedule of the sales for the week is Tuesday, a hot dog day and candy sale sponsored by the sophomore-junior club and the freshman club respectively; Wednesday a sucker sale sponsored by the Soqial Welfare club; and Thursday a popcorn sale sponsored by the Faith club.
to watch the departure of the command ship Mount Olympus and three other vessels. He will sail later and join the expedition in January.
Four other ships were to leave San Diego, Cal., later today.
Byrd flew to Norfolk from Washington for a last-minute conference with Rear Adm. Richard H. Cru-zen, commander of the expedition task force, who sailed on the Mount Olympus.
POLAR FLIGHTS
Cruzen told a news conference just before he sailed that several flights over the south pole are planned as part of the expedition. The flights will be made by twin-engined DC-3's and Mariner flying boats.
In reply to a question, Cruzea said the expedition had asked for some Geiger counters, devices which indicate presence of radioactivity, but had not yet received them. They might be needed for cosmic ray observation, he said. They also oould be used to locate radio-active ores, including uranium.
POSSIBLE MINERALS Cruzen is in technical command of the 4000-man navy task fore* assigned to explore the earth’s last unknown continent — the 6,000,-000 square miles of frozen wasteland surrounding the south pole, an area which may hold vital mineral resources for an atomic age.
Byrd told newsmen he would see them “some time in January.” He will sail either on the 27,000-ton carrier Philippine Sea or the ioe breaker Burton Island. The Philippine Sea leaves Norfolk Jan. I, and the Butron Island will sail from the west coast Jan. 15.
Byrd said the ship6 sailing today probably would reach the polar ioe pack on Jan. 2 or 3. He said the present expedition should be able to tell what’s in half of the 4.000,000 miles of unexplored territory.
VAST RESERVOIRS
The antarctic holds- vast reservoirs of natural resources, including it is believed, enough coal to last 50 years, he said.
The expedition lost three of ita members before it sailed. Someone stole three of the six young pups quartered on the Mount Olympus. The 27 full-grown dogs were not molested.
The polar fleet will compete indirectly with Russian and British expeditions now operating in the antarctic. Byrd’s group will establish bases at Little America, about 800 miles from the south pole and about 1500 miles east of the area now being surveyed by the British. It not known where the Russians are.

Final plans for the trip to Camp Seeley for the west coast Lutheran students convention will be discussed tonight at the regular weekly dinner-meeting of the Lutheran student association at th^ YWCA house at 5.
