PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS ..-The Kansan Comments--- Learning Goes on To New Goals The University goes on, come flood, epidemic, or war. That was the theme of the well-received speech of the former chairman of the Kansas Board of Regents in con- vocation yesterday. The speaker, Fred M. Harris, knows what he is talking about. A law student at the University dur- ing the Spanish-American War, Mr. Harris since then has followed the progress and development of. this school through World War I up to the present conflict. Learning is one of those immut- able things which cannot be de- stroyed. Under suppression it. gath- ers its strength and continues grow- ing underground, ready for the day when the sun of freedom shall shine again and it can burst. forth in bleom. - The University, housing’ learning, takes on its'deathless qualities. Em- phasis may be placed now on sci- ence, mechanics, and physical. train- ing, but those arts of peace such as philosophy, music, literature will come into their own again. . ‘Since men’s minds and souls must live and grow too, even in war, it is not wise to eliminate from the college curriculum the fine arts and eayrse primarily meditative: The liversity has realized this fact and bt open the same courses of study that were enjoyed in peace-times, adting war-time classes to suit the needs of the men in uniform and . eivilian students preparing for sery- k ice. 4 ‘ It is vital that the peoples fighting Military Trainees - call K.U. 66 to these Stations: Frank Strong Union Buildin Journalism North Entr Other Civilian Students : = Please call for your copy each day at the most convenient of Kansan Business Office, to liberate enslaved intellects over the world do not themselves lose their culture, their freedom of thought and expression, and their institutions of learning. After the war, the University will make great strides forward in the sciences. It is to be hoped that the social sciences and arts can keep pace with the scientific development, If they can, the world will find its way out of the prevailing darkness; if they cannot, the new world of science and no heart or soul will not be worth the sacrifice. An optimist because he has seen the University after wars return not to.normalcy but to something better, Mr. Harris predicts the continuance of KU as a great institution after the war. It is such liberal-thinking, public-spirited citizens of Kansas who believe that the University should lead the state in learning and ideals, who will bring this about.

WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 29, 1943 y MARY MORRIEL Roch Chall Talk \ Proving that this years freshmen are no different: One rushee arrived at the Gamma Phi house at the stroke of 4:30 p.m. the day of teas and took her place demurely in a corner. She said yes and no quite intelligibly— intermittently she -bared her teeth. Suddenly after an hour and a half she jumped as if prodded by an acetylene torch and dashed out the door. “Sorry to run off like this,” she said giving the rush captain’s hand a fleeting pump, “but its al- most 6, and I haven’t been to the Gamma Phi house yet.” * * * * When the Kappas went out their back door to school Tuesday morn- ing they encountered a formal gown hanging from the porch light and numerous suitcases and toilet ar- ticles neatly arranged on their back steps. The formal was identified as belonging to Nancy Miller, pledge, who later admitted getting up at 5:30. am. so she could move in at the earliest possible moment and then losing heart when it came to ringing the doorbell at 7;30 and raising a possibly irate active. At one sorority house when the closing hour bell rang their first “in” night three freshmen dashed madly out of their rooms inquiring if the house was on fire. * * * * 3,000 uniforms and she picked. on him: Dr. Pierce, head of the Wesley Foundation on Mt. Oread, was somewhat taken aback when he called. Donna Jean Stember at Wat- kins hall, and, before even uttering hello, was greeted with, “Well, hello, my little apple blossom!” Upon be- ing informed that this was not her little apple blossom, Donna, an alum, almost swallowed the transmitter. Apple blossom is Claudine Cham- kerlain.
