Amateurs' Artistic Genius
Students in organized houses all over Mt. Oread are burning the midnight oil this week while they plan, paint, and erect various artistic means of welcoming back alumni and predicting that K.U. will beat Nebraska Saturday.
About a week before the all-important game, some member of each house usually realizes that H-day is just around the corner. He calls a committee and dozens of ideas are weighed and considered with the seriousness of a U.N. resolution. The final decision is often a compromise between many "brainstorms," but every member of the committee and of the house feels sure that no other scheme could be more ingenious. . . that is, until the decorations on the house next door are revealed.
Still, K.U.'s house decorations consistently express original ideas with a reasonable display of artistic talent and occasionally a little mechanical genius. But most of all they represent the results of cooperative work.
Twould be a bleak Homecoming without any gigantic Jayhawkers and diminutive Cornhuskers in an endless parade of new ideas. Hats off to the persons whose enthusiastic and tireless efforts help create an atmospheric Homecoming.
Bill Graves.
Twenty-Third Slam
The college professor is my shepherd and I am in dire want; He preventeth me from lying down in the bed which I renteth; He leadeth me to distraction with his exam questions; He shaketh my resolution to get a college degree; He leadeth me to make a fool of myself before my classmates. Yea, the I burn my lamp until the landlady howleth, I fear much evil.
For he is against me.
His policies, his theories, and his ranting frighten my wits from me He assigneth me extra work in the presence of mine enemies; He anointeth my quizz paper with red pencil marks, And my zeros fill a whole column. Surely, theories, exams, and themes will follow me all the days
Surely, theories, exams, and themes will follow me all the days you college career.
of my college career,
And I will dwell in the bughouse forever.
—Oregon State Daily Barometer.
Political enthusiasm of Lawrencites is overwhelming. A spot check revealed that only 43 persons attended a recent speech by E. P. Scrivner in Clinton park. All but six members of the audience were either candidates or relatives of candidates.
A modest statement below the Daily Californian's nameplate says, "Monarch of the College Dailies," and Rodney Nipnap asks which of Webster's definitions fit this use of monarch—sole supreme ruler, an English coin, or a large butterfly.
"Citations for parking ignored by students," says a headline in the Oregon State Daily Barometer, and perhaps the K.U. parking committee should write an analysis of their techniques for the Oregon authorities.
