SOLDIERS VOTED PAY WHEN DISCHARGED
Congress Passes Law Granting $60 Bonus to Men Who Leave the Service

   Col. Morton C. Mumma requests that the following order relating to the payment of $60 to all discharged soldiers be printed:
   Section 1406 of the Revenue Act of 1918, approved February 24, 1919, provides a payment of sixty dollars ($60) in a single payment to all persons honorably separated from the military or naval service of the United States since April 6, 1917, or who may hereafter be separated from service. It shall not be paid however in the following cases: 
   1. To any person who though appoined or inducted into the military or naval forces on or prior to November 11, 1918, had not reported for duty at his station on or prior to such date or 
   2. To any person who has already received one month's pay under the provision of Section 9 of the act entitled "an act to authorize the president to increase temporarily the military establishment of the United States" approved May 18, 1917, or 
   3. To any person who is entitled to retire pay. 
   4. To the heirs or legal representatives of any person entitled to any payment under this section who may die before receiving such payment. 
   The following method must be followed by every person who has already been separated from service and received final pay:
   Claim for bonus of sixty dollars (60) in accordance with the terms of the above quoted act must be forwarded to the Zone Finance Officer, Lemon Building, Washington, D.C. and must be accompanied by (a) the discharge certificates or order for discharge or release, if no certificate was issued, but both certificate and order if both were issued. It is important that the particular paper which bears the indorsement of final payment military service since April 6, 1917 be included (b) a statement of all showing date and place of reporting at first military station, and (c) address to which check is to be sent. 
   All papers forwarded as above required will be returned with the check. 
   It is to be noted that this payment will be made to officers, enlisted men and female nurses at any time within one year after the termination of the present war.

PROFESSORS' CHILDREN PROMINENT IN U.H.S.
   Genevieve Lathrop, niece of Prof. E. E. Lewis of the college of education, is editor-in-chief of "U High Life," the new University high school paper.
   Marshall kay, son of Dean George F. Kay, is president of the junior class and business manager of the "U High Life."
   Robert Dorcas, son of H.C. Dorcas, University Registrar, is vice president of the freshman class and a reporter on the paper. Marion Seashore, son of Dean C.E. Seashore, is a reporter; and Frank Breene, son of Dean F.T. Breene, is treasurer of the freshman class. 

TAU DELTS HOLD FORMAL
   The first fraternity formal since the war was given last night when Delta Tau Delta entertained at a dinner-dance at the Hotel Jefferson. Music was furnished by the Ogle nine-piece orchestra. Chaperones were Mr. and Mrs. W.D. Cannon. 

FACULTY WOMEN WARN AGAINST LOW SHOES
   "Girls are simply gambling with pneumonia when they wear low shoes in the winter," said a woman member of the faculty. "Oh, yes, they probably study just as hard regardless of the kind of shoe they wear, but certainly our present fad is general evidence that they lack good sense."
   During the past two months more low shoes have appeared on the campus than during any other winter season, according to an expert on dress. Even the snow does not discourage patent leather oxfords with three inch heels. 
   "The only reason I can see, is that they think it's fashionable and looks pretty- a smart display of a well-shaped ankle," explained another authority. 

CYLDE WILLIAMS RESIGNS 
Iowa Graduate Heading Athletics at Ames Enters Business
   One of the big events in state athletics was sprung this week when it was made known that Clyde Williams, athletic director at Ames for the past ten years, handed in his resignation to be effective at once. He was football coach up to the year 1914 when Mayser took charge of the football team. Williams' action did not come as a surprise to close followers of Iowa athletics; for it has been known for more than a year that he was planning to enter the automobile business.
   Williams has not only a state and Missouri Valley reputation as a coach, athlete, and athletic director but he is known nationally. For years he has been a member of the football rules committee. Williams is an Iowa graduate of the class of 1902 and was a star athlete in baseball and football here. He will locate at Sheldon, Iowa.
   R.W. Rogers, physical director at Ames, has been appointed director of athletics temporarily.

PHI DELTS WINNERS OF PAN HELLENIC CUP
   Displaying a brand of basketball that the Kappa Sigma five was unable to stop, the Phi Delta Theta quintet downed Coach Dutton's team at the armory Friday night by the close score of 9 to 6. The Phi Delts were thereupon awarded the Pan Hellenic championship cup.
   Both teams had a perfect average in the games played. Umlandt starred for the north end boys while Gardner and Synhorst of football fame were chief cogs in the Phi Delt team. Synhorst's southpaw basket and Umlandt's ringer from beyond the center of the floor were the features.

FRATERNITY COUNCIL ACTS
High School Students Will Not Be Pledged Before Graduation
   That fraternities at Iowa will no longer pledge high school students was the decision of the inter-fraternity council at a recent meeting. Members of the Greek letter organizations in the University are also opposed to pledging members of high school fraternities. 
   The action of the council was based upon the declaration of several school superintendents over the state who claim that pledging men in high school is decidedly detrimental to the morale of the secondary schools. 
   In view of this attitude on the part of high school authorities, the practice of such pledging will be abandoned and under no circumstances will it be tolerated by fraternities here, according to statements made by Robert E. Reinow, dean of men, yesterday in speaking in behalf of the inter-fraternity council's action. 

   The mental alertness of students at the University of Illinois has been examined by the regular army tests.

COMMERCE CLUB MEETS
   Commerce club will meet Tuesday evening at 7:30 in the Commercial club rooms. Mr. C.E. Duffie, advertising manager for the M.E. Smith & Co., of Omaha, will talk on "Retail Advertising."

   "It Must Never Happen Again" is the subject on which the Rev. Theodore G. Soares of Chicago University will speak at Vespers next Sunday.

He has just returned from France where he has been addressing the soldiers on various subjects. 

   Irma Kern is visiting in Cedar Rapids for a few days. 

COACHES TENTH BRIGADE
   Lieut. Floyd E. Thomas, a former Iowa University athlete, recently coached a team from the Tenth brigade which won the game over a team coached by "Pete" Russell, a former star quarterback of the University of Chicago. About 8,000 spectators were present. 
   Thomas was a star halfback at the University of Iowa and later played on eastern teams when a student at Harvard law school. He was practising law in Ottumwa when he entered Fort Snelling.
