SOCIETY AND PERSONAL Prof. G.T.W. Patrick's name was omitted by the Daily Iowan for Sunday in the list of University men mentioned in the last "Who's Who in America." Professor Patrick is recognized as a philosopher and psychologist. He is also the author of several textbooks. Dr. Benjamin F. Shambaugh, head of the department of political science, is ill with influenza but he is expected to return to his classes soon. Mlle. Jeanne Terraz asks all students of French who wish to speak and understand French to come to room 105, liberal arts at 7:30 every Friday evening. She will direct conversation on French life, history, literature, the war, and art. The show at the "Y" Saturday night was rather unique in that the men who witnessed it wore masks. Dean Kay gave a talk at the "Y" Sunday morning. Mabel Lucas' mother who has been visiting here left for her home Friday evening. J. Mel. Hickerson, editor of the Hawkeye last year, has just received his honorable discharge at the officers' training camp at Camp Pike and is visiting in Iowa City for a few days. Sarah Kearns of Sigma Chi house who has been suffering from a nervous breakdown, left for her home in Webster City Friday, accompanied by her mother. Ivan L. Pollock, former instructor in the political science department, made a brief visit in Iowa City after receiving honorable discharge from Camp Pike. Lieut. Louis J. Roberts of Columbus Junction visited here Thursday. Lieut. Roberts was a student in the college of engineering and will return to chool after Christmas. Faith H. Boies, state secretary for the Voluntary College Workers, who was to have spoken to the workers here on food conservation Friday, did not come. She is expected here Dec. 13. Henrietta Martin of Sayre, Okla., a freshman last year, was here Friday visiting friends. Miss Martin is teaching the sixth grade in the Sayre schools this year. Stephen A. Swisher, L.A. '15, was made first lieutenant on Peace Day in France. He was prominent in athletics in the University. His wife, formerly Miss Dorothy Yetter is living in Iowa City now. Charles Parsons, who sailed for France with the 20th Engineers, has been made a first lieutenat. He was graduated from the college of applied science in 1915. Parsons won nine "I's" during his three years of athletics in the University. Yeteve Taake, Tri-Delt, who was a sophomore last year, has been for several months at Nitro, W. Va., where she has a position in the Administration laboratory of the munition factory. George Brum, senior engineer, of Iowa City, is at his home recovering from a serious case of influenza. Sergeant Leonard A. Mach who has been at the officers' training school at Camp Grant has returned to enter the senior class in pharmacy. Louis Roberts has returned from an officers training camp to continue his work in chemical engineering. Alida Guthrie of West Liberty is visiting her sister Isabel at the Achoth house this week. Mrs. Lozier from Des Moines is visiting Florence Londan at the Alpha Theta house. Helen Younkin from Lone Tree, sophomore last year, is spending the week with Evelyn Bracewell. Madeline Hoover of Minneapolis is spending this week with Alberta Vassey. MISS GWINN HAS RETURNED Orders for Canteen Workers Cancelled for Time Being. Olive Gwinn, who left for Chicago Sunday, Dec. 1, where she expected to be ordered to New York and soon to go overseas for canteen service, has returned to Iowa City and is awaiting a call to report later. Had Miss Gwinn arrived in Chicago a day sooner she would in all probability have been sent to New York but authorities received word Monday, that all orders were cancelled for the time being. Miss Gwinn says it is the opinion of the men in the headquarters at Chicago that further orders depend upon the action of the United States government as a result of the peace conference now in session, and they believe that those who have passports will be sent overseas. Since Miss Gwinn has already been approved and has her passports ,it is likely that she will be called as soon as the situation is cleared up and workers are ordered to sail. TELEPHONE COURSE TO BE CONTINUED The special course in telephone engineering now being given for the benefit of the vocational unit of the S.A.T.C. will be continued as a part of the regular work in the course in electrical engineering. There is only a normal demand for men trained in this field, according to Prof. A.H. Ford of the department of electrical engineering, and in the future the broader side of telephone developments will be emphasized instead of the trade side of telephone installation and operation. SCHEDULES READY NEXT WEEK The schedules for the second quarter are ready to go to the printer and will probably be available for student use the first of next quarter. MANY FORMER STUDENTS WILL REENTER SCHOOL The following men are planning to return to the law school Dec. 31. Those of the class of 1920, are: Roy D. Burns, Larchwood; Allan A. Rerrick, Humboldt; James 9. Hollingsworth, Keokuk William B. Sloan, Iowa Falls; Henry B. Witham, Orient; Bert McDonald, Meriden; Walter C. Henneberry, Eagle Grove; RObert H. Hotz, Iowa City; Dudley G. Douglass, Maxwell; and Rothmer A. Scott, Lamont. Those of the class of 1919 are: Russel J. Fenton, Marcus; Kenneth W. Nelson, Winfield; and Ross E. White, Storm Lake.
