The Editorial Page-
Read It And Weep!
Editor's Note: Here is an opportunity to see the Communists in action. The following editorial bespeaks of the woes facing the Daily Worker, but throughout there is a tone of down-right egotism and cockiness. While turning its rather shallow propaganda on its own readers, the Worker manages to bleat some typical accusations at its hated enemies. Read it and laugh! We need never fear this sort of rot.
To all readers of the Daily Worker; a great decision rests in your hands.
The Daily Worker asks you to guarantee its continued publication by your decision to make up its present deficit. There is no other source, no other way this can be accomplished.
We are confident that, as in the past, your answer will insure long life to the Daily Worker. Your splendid response to our recent subscription drive for the Worker gives us this confidence.
To the labor-hating, hell-bent-for-war newspapers of America such a sum of money is very small indeed. Ten days' advertisements in the New York Times would net a larger amount. But papers like that get such money because they tried to break the miners' strike. Funds are available to them because they endorse the manufacture of the Hell Bomb. Their revenues come in because they support the headlong drive to a police state in the U.S.
Despite the successful subscription drive, and despite every possible economy we have made in the editorial and mechanical departments of this paper, there's an immediate $175,000 deficit staring us in the face. Without that money the paper can't roll.
Publishing a paper which stands uncompromisingly for labor is a continuing battle against the financial interests who would close us down.
What joy there would be in the camp of Rankin and McCarthy, Hearst and General Motors, Dubinsky and Reuther, if they could force the Daily Worker to cease publication! And what a void would be created in American journalism!
What paper would then back-talk to the atomaniacs? Who would talk for the men and women in the shops? Who would talk for the Negro people and confound the lynchers and double-talkers about equal rights?
Our needs are urgent but we are calm and confident in your decision. Send us your contributions without delay.

'Small Things'
"Union Plans Double Size," says a headline, and the freshman cynic snorted that if they mean double sized malts, it's about time.
"Governor Named Reverend" said a headline in the Kansan, and the freshman cynic hushed all the snickers by saying, "It's possible! It's possible!"
An ad for "Twelve O'Clock High" says that Kansas City is going wild over the picture, and we just want to add that everything appeared normal Saturday night.
Biology Students May Get Awards
A Phi Sigma honorary scroll will be given by the national biological honorary society to one senior and one graduate student at the University, John L. Ott, president of the Kansas Phi Sigma chapter, announced today.
This annual award is given to a senior who has maintained a B average in biological sciences, is in the upper 35 per cent of his class, and who has been actively engaged in some research problem in biology at the University.
The award to the graduate student is based on the student being in good standing in the Graduate School, and actively engaged in research in biology at the University.
Those eligible must submit to the chairman of their department an abstract of their research work, not to exceed 750 words.
The abstract should contain a brief outline of the research problem, the procedure and methods used toward solving this problem, and the results or conclusions that have been reached.
An awards committee will judge the abstracts on basis of research ability demonstrated. The scrolls will be presented by the national headquarters of Phi Sigma to the winners who will be announced at Honors convocation.

Conforming to an All Student Council ruling which allows only one cheerleader from the Jay Janes, the group decided that any other member becoming a cheerleader will be an inactive member.
They also decided that selection of the cheerleader should be left to the pep committee. This will insure the Jay Jane a position. Then if any other members wish, they may go inactive and try to become cheerleaders on their own.
The group agreed to support a program in which the University will send a student to a foreign country to study during his junior year.
