We Will Now Sing-
As the band gives forth with the first few strains of the Star Spangled Banner, hundreds of persons at public gatherings reluctantly rise to their feet. Each person, according to his musical limitations and patriotic spirit, plunges into the unknown with a determination to be in on the last note. Some are lost completely in the course of the song, others mutter along making a noise that by no stretch of the imagination we could call singing.
At the close of an assembly or convocation, the Chancellor asks that everyone stand and sing the Alma Mater. Granted that the tune is pitched comfortably, the first lines resound with vigor. After this bold beginning, discords enter with each succeeding line.
The trick of catching hopefully at a neighbor's phrase usually results in disaster as it betrays the ignorance of both you and your neighbor. Everyone rides along until they hear the words Alma Mater and this they know. So, they give forth as if they had been singing all along. The song ends as it began but the impression of half learned lines remains. This is not very flattering to the student body or the faculty.
Why is it that we make such a sorry exhibition in attempting to sing these two songs? How about taking a little time to learn them?
—Laurence Silks.
- Letters To The Editor -
Council Votes
Dear Editor
I was greatly amused at a recent letter to the Daily Kansan which claimed organizational representatives were out of place on the All Student Council. This position was obviously based on the contention that delegates of organizations do not "represent the student body as a whole." It would be degrading to the intelligence of the student body to assume they actually believe this generalization.
In the first place, it would be difficult to ascertain whether or not the A.S.C. actually represents the student body as a whole when a majority is held by a politica party representing less than one-third of the students of the University.
In the second place, it would be difficult to say that the students are being adequately represented merely because several students who are responsible to their own classmates are taken from the various schools and colleges to voice their personal opinions in the student council.
In the third place, it seems to assume that the students are best represented when their interests are focused and this consolidated desire is upheld. No better portrayal of the student's wishes exist than shown in their organizational interests. Not only are their representatives pledged to uphold the particular organization's attitude, but they can be held responsible for their actions directly.
I, therefore, wish to point out that not only do the organizations deserve representatives on the A.S.C., but that they deserve equal footing with those representatives who are honored in the spring general election. Disenfranchisement is a denial of the
students' right to true representation.

Sold Out, Twice
Dear Editor
The Kansas City Star called us a demoralized band of Jayhawkers. But it wasn't nearly so much a result of the final score as it was a result of the resale of some 2,000 seats originally purchased by students for their own use and use of their wives at the Oklahoma-Kansas football game.
Never before in my 27 years have I ever heard of a more dastardly trick being inflicted upon a group of helpless college students. Never before have I seen such regal example of unfair play, of unscrupulous action, of mercenary conning as was displayed by an exemplary institution in this action.
Never before this game have my wife and I, and many others, been forced to sit illegally and uncomfortably in twice-sold seats that we had previously occupied "un-demoralized!"
