How To Date More And Wonder Why
Speaking as the collective female voice of Texas College of Arts and Industries, columnist Betty Barber for the South Texan gives the men some advice:
by Bibler
"Girls don't expect you to read Emily Post, but they hate to stand in front of a door waiting for a fellow to open it, when he comes along and asks, 'Whatsa' matter, you weak or something?"
"There are common courtesies that girls appreciate, such as opening of car doors, help in being seated, rising when she enters the room and letting you go ahead of you."
"Then," continues Miss Barber, "there is the coupe casanova. He takes a girl out for a Coke, then parks someplace and tries to squeeze it out of her. When a girl says no when asked for a goodnight kiss, the fellow should accept her answer."
Don't brag about previous conquests. The girls say they "aren't particular interested."
Other hints: When you are telling your life story don't be conceited about it. Be subtle about implying you are a superman.
And furthermore, "After a first date the boy shouldn't assume the girl is his personal property."
In reply to all this, one male student came through with this magnificent non sequitur; "I don't like girls who squeeze a tooth-paste tube in the middle."

In the middle of reading the movie section we jumped up and ran to the nearest mirror to see if our hair had turned gray. We had just seen the ad for "My First Love" starring Margaret O'Brien.

It is with deepest sympathy that we read that coeds at Michigan State are facing the dire prospect of having only four-and-one-twentieth men apiece this year. With those odds it is possible that some of the girls won't get to go out more than seven nights a week.
A story from a southern school telling of the faculty members who have served for more than a quarter of a century doesn't interest us at all. Something more to the point would be an article on their athletes who have been playing in varsity competition almost that long.
The law school at the University of Oklahoma has hired a woman professor for the first time. We presume that she is a married woman, well accustomed to laying down the law.
Of course George Sauer, Baylor's football boss, hasn't let his name do anything to the condition of his players. The Bears won their opener 19 to 0.
The major league baseball season is all but over now and the St. Louis Browns are once again firmly entrenched in the cellar in the American league. Gosh, it's sure good to know that there is at least one place in sports where professionalism hasn't crept in.
It's rumored, however, that if Bill Veeck remains in charge there, the Brownies may have to join the circus performers union.

Football Seating, Again

Where is our school spirit? Three issues of the Kansan have been printed since the weekend football game, and no one has shown the ambition to write in complaint of the seating situation.
Editor, Daily Kansan:
Could this give students, when they see a few scattered gray and bald heads in their section, an erroneous impression? Might it not be explained that the "faculty member or two," who were there, were directed onto the ramps leading into the student section, and had tickets they had bought in good faith?
But Wednesday's Kansan quoted Mr. Falkenstein: "And as to personnel other than students sitting in their section, that I cannot understand," and "However, it may be that a faculty member or two was there."
As every student who attended the game knows, the student section was jam-packed, and the rest of the stadium at least half vacant. Since I had more important things to do than wait two hours in the stadium to hold a seat for the game, I stood for the entire time of the game. It is difficult to rouse up enthusiasm from the not-too-comfortable seats of the stadium; it is nearer an impossibility to shout and yell when your feet howl from standing through a game.
Since there appears to be no possibility of enlarging the student section (at least, moving the iron wire fences would be difficult) why not allow students in the vacant sections of the stadium at the end of the first quarter?

Sooner or later, the question of televising the football games is going to raise its ugly head at K.U. as it has at many other schools. When that time comes, I shall be whole-heartedly in favor of televising the

games. That seems the only solution to the problem of enabling the whole of the student body to enjoy them.
I was glad a few weeks ago when I received a notice that general admission football tickets would again be available to faculty and staff members. Last week I went early and had a good seat. Everything was fine.

News From Other Campuses
President Clarence Decker of the University of Kansas City is quoted in the University News as telling the board of trustees that the tuition there should have been increased fifty per cent. This was the result of decreased enrollment and mounting operational costs.
A Negro law student at the University of North Carolina refused to accept football tickets marked "Colored" in place of the athletic passbook normally issued. Chancellor R. B. House explained, according to the Daily Tar Heel, that the action was taken because "Negroes are not billed for athletic passbooks in their tuition and bills."
DePaul students are preparing now, says the DePaulia, for their annual "Trip of the Year." The sports department of the paper last year sponsored a week long vacation in Miami, Fla., where they cheered their boxing team against Miami U.

News Roundup

Monday, Oct. 8, 1951
Truce Negotiators Will Meet Tuesday
Tokyo—(U.P.)—Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway today accepted a Communist proposal to resume the suspended Korean truce talks at Pan Mun Jom, five miles southeast of Kaesong.
The United Nations commander notified the Communists that he is instructing his liaison officers to meet Red representatives at 7 p.m. Tuesday (C.S.T.) to make the necessary arrangements.
The Red commanders Sunday had reluctantly suggested Pan Mun Jom for the conference after Ridgway refused to send his truce team back to the incident-ridden former site, Kaesong.
Says Policy Not Anti-Red
Washington—(U.P.)-Harold E. Stassen swore today that "the record" contradicts sworn testimony of Secretary of State Dean Acheson and Ambassador At Large Philip C. Jessup that they followed an anti-Communist policy in China.
Stassen said he could not "accuse or exonerate" anyone for his part in American policy. "The results," he said, "are equally tragic—whether they follow from honest mistakes or subversive treason."
Tito Tells Of 'West' Enemies
Belgrade, Yugoslavia—(U.R.)-Marshal Tito, in the strongest anti-West speech he has made for many months, has warned his people that Yugoslavia has enemies in the Western world as well as in the East.
He said "controllers of the press and radio" in the West strongly attack "the social system of our country." The only times Yugoslavia is mentioned favorably by the press and radio of the West, he said, is when "we quarrel with Russia or when we answer her."
New York—(U.P.)-Premier Mohammed Mossa-degh of Iran arrived at Idlewild airport at 10:24 a.m. (C.S.T.) today.
Iran's Premier Arrives
Pasadena, Calif.—(U.P.)—Astronomers attempted today to compute the orbit of a newly discovered celestial body believed to be the 12th moon of the planet Jupiter.
A chartered Royal Dutch airlines plane raced the ailing Iranian premier across the Atlantic with a delegation of 15 advisers armed with arguments to contest the U.N. rights to intervene in the oil dispute and to present Iran's side of the case if, as appears likely it goes into full debate.
The object was discovered by Dr. Seth B. Nicholson of the Mt. Wilson and Mt. Palomar observatories, and if the body proves to be Jupiter's 12th moon, he will rank with Galileo Galilei as a discoverer of the planet's satellites.
Las Vegas—(U.R.)—The Las Vegas Morning Sun said today that President Truman may be a spectator at the nation's first atomic combat maneuvers scheduled to begin soon at the atomic energy commission's Frenchman Flat proving ground.
The paper did not disclose the source of its information, but it said it was convinced that the President, Defense Secretary Robert Lovett and other top Washington officials would be present when the tactical maneuvers employing newly-designed atomic weapons are launched.

Prince, Princess In Canada
