It's A Good Thing Arthur Wasn't Trigger-Happy
St. Louis—U.P. — When Special Officer James McNamara saw a man flourishing a pistol in the restaurant where his eating he drew his own weapon.
A moment later, he felt the muzzle of another pressed against his neck. The other customers were waiting for the fireworks to start and the car turned around and recognized Detective Sgt. Arthur Erleniether.
Red-faced, the two officers arrested the third man for carrying a concealed weapon.

Soviet Revolt Re-Incarnated Czardom In State Socialism
The Russian revolution did not bring about an embodiment of socialist ideas. It re-incarnated zardom with communists as rulers, rather than landowners, Otakar Odozilik, visiting history professor from Czechoslovakia, told a large audience Tuesday night in Lindley auditorium.
As is apparent in some of Lenin's principal writings, he was contemptuous of parliamentary democracy, opposed socialism during the revolutionary period, but strongly desired a communistic dictatorship, said Professor Odlozilik.
After the 1917 revolution, the world public was under the assumption that the higher classes had been wiped out, Professor Odlozilik observed. Although partially true, a large percentage of them remained and were integrated into the soviet system.
This was particularly evident in Russian art, literature, and music, he added. A completely passive public attitude after the revolution toward Puskin the famous Russian painter, led to a resurgence in the 1920s, and in later years to new popularity and wide distribution of his re-printed works.
"Old Russia, temporarily lost during the revolutionary period, was later re-discovered," the visiting professor remarked.
"Not long after being assigned to important posts in the government, the army, and industry, they fell back to their pre-revolutionary habits; living links, therefore, existed between czarists and bolsheviks," he added.
"The distance between Russia and democracy is the same as the gap between the czarist regime of 1905 and 19th century democracy," commented Professor Odlozilik. Thus, prospects for Russia becoming a western-type democracy are not bright.
Stalin, he added, has more power and a more efficient police force at his disposal than Ivan the Terrible, Peter the Great, or any past Russian
The danger in dealing with the Soviet Union does not lie in the fact that it is not a western-type power, but because it exerts a powerful influence in Europe and Asia, thanks to communists abroad acting as its allies.
The essential factor of Russia's strength, concluded Professor Odiozilik, is that, "while western citizens have lost faith in the democratic creed, the Soviet Union and communist movement are dominated by aggressively-spirited people who retain their beliefs."

Surplus Of Jobs Offered To Musicians Are Mostly Teaching Positions
More job requests are being offered for musicians than there are students to fill them, Russell L. Wiley, associate professor of band said today.
The principal openings are teaching positions in public schools for band, orchestra, and vocal music.
Starting salaries range anywhere from $2,800 to $3,800 a year, depending on the particular school and the location. Higher wages are paid in the West, where the schools are isolated, and consequently must pay more to obtain teachers, Professor Wiley said.
The larger high schools ask that graduating musicians have at least two years of experience, but the smaller ones will sometimes take unexperienced music teachers.
Many former students in music at the University have secured teaching positions, both in Kansas and out of the state. Some have gone into symphonic music.
Herbert Mueller, former student, is considered one of the outstanding cornet players of the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra. He played in both the University band and orchestra, and was one of the featured cornet solists.
Lou Maser, former K.U. bandman is now with the army band in Washington, D.C.
Two brothers, Alex and Arthur Fiedler have entered both teaching and professional fields. Alex is now with the Dallas Symphony orchestra. Arthur has played with the
