Stuff We Haven't Even Used Yet——
Men May Come, Men May Go But Colyums Go On Forever
By ALLEN D. SMITH
The University Daily Kansan is going to try something that hasn't been done now for several years, namely run a column of miscellaneous this's and that's'. In the past such attempts have have always ended in a clique-ish rat race with the names of the columnist's friends appearing every day in their assigned places. The Big Boys appointed your present writer (?) because they knew he would never do such a thing. No1.
write (7?) because they blink.
Never do such a thing. No friends.
A columnist's job is a rough one. It requires a man with brains who can turn out clever copy day after day with no let up. This column will run once a week if the editor can find space.
We will try to fill our space with material that will be of interest to all. We will toss bouquets or brick-bats with equal abandon as the need dictates. Not even the Kansan itself will be immune.
We cordially invite contributions of any kind from anyone, and will not be below peeking over the editor's shoulder as he reads his "Letters to the. . ."
Have you noticed the kings and queens of the Greeks have started a new contest? Each hour during the day is assigned to a different frat or sorority. Then, during the break period of that hour the chosen organization throws its heaviest smokers onto the Watson library front porch. The group that most effectively blocks the entrance wins the day's contest.
Some Of The Nicest People:
With all of the criticism and bitter banter that we get concerning the running of our little sheet, it gives the staff an especially large charge when someone pats us on the back.
Thanks then, to Prof. Allen Crafton and to Darlene Van Biber, star of "Joan." Professor Crafton scribbed a note of appreciation to the Kansas for its coverage of his latest play. The note should be framed and used as an antidote for some of the "I was misquoted!" screams. Miss Van Biber went out of her
Miss Van Biber went out of her way to thank the reporters who worked on the play.
Thanks for your thanks, nice people.
The 1947 "K" Book lists over 200 offices in various campus organizations under the heading "B.M.O.C." (Big Man On Campus). We're sold on extra-curricular activity as a good thing for students. It not only adds to a person's experience, but it sometimes makes leaders out of wall flowers. Many students grow under added responsibilities. . . others just swell.
Did you notice a brief in Wednesday's paper about Charles Haverity, an engineering freshman, who cut

his hand while test tubing in Bailey? Our Kansan Snoop got that one the hard way. He noticed and picked up a trail of blood on the corner by the chem building, followed it to its source, and then to its destination at Watson. Result: One story.
For good listening while studying:
The Supper Club at 6 p.m. every day on N.B.C.; likewise the Fred Waring show at 9:30 Monday night aired on the same net.
Our reporter later admitted that his grandfather had been an Indian scout.
For good laughing while not studying; Henry Morgan at 9:30 Wednesday night on A.B.C.
Fond For Thought:
Most of the familied veterans or campus are still laughing at the government's food conservation program. Imagine having the meat on Tuesday and the poultry on Thursday to give up.
Stark Wins $15 In Cover Contest
Marjorie Stark, fine arts junior was awarded first prize of $15 in the K.U. Calendar cover contest. Miss Stark's design depicting a quiet interlude in University life will appear on the 1948 calendar in gold on a maroon leatherette cover.
Only one prize of $15 was originally offered in the contest. But the quality of the entries was so uniformly high that second and third prizes of $8 and $3 were awarded LuAnne Powell, fine arts junior, won the second prize and Gerald Correa, fine arts junior won third.
Honorable mention was given to designs by Kenneth Edwards, Barbara Rivard, and Marvel Senti, all fine arts juniors.
Paul Hausman, assistant professor of shop practice, and Frederick Lauver, instructor of welding, are attending a 3-day lecture series on machine and structural design at the University of Kansas City. R. H. Davies, consulting engineer from Cleveland, is giving the lectures.

Clark Speaks To Pharmacists
Prof. R. W. Clark of the School of Pharmacy was the moderator of a panel of four speakers at a Kansas Pharmaceutical association meeting held in Salina recently. The subject of the meeting was "Adequate Pharmaceutical Service for Kansas". The speakers discussed the improvement of drug stores and professional service throughout the state.
Others on the panel included Mr. Robert B. Dockum, graduate of the University School of Pharmacy, '31, and president of the Dockum Drug Co., Wichita, and Mr. Norman McCullough, '38, of the McCullough Drug Co., Kingman.
Student organizations are asked to observe the following rules in keeping the campus clean, Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, announced today:
Professor Clark will attend the meeting of the national officers of Kappa Psi, pharmacy fraternity, in Philadelphia tomorrow. Professor Clark, who is grand ritualist of the group, will discuss a revised ritual.
1. Placards, notices, and handbills are to be posted only on the billboards provided for that purpose.
'Post No Bills,' Nichols Urges
2. Notices are not to be pasted or taped to any doors or walls on the campus.
3. Special bulletin boards are unauthorized unless written permission is given by the administration.
George Never Had It So Good, Then Love Stepped In To Make Things A Dog's Life.
Love has made a mess of George's life.
George is a carefree soul who frequents the Union cafeteria and lounge, engineering labs, and other places of high fashion and culture.
George is a Boston terrier with a short, straight tail. George is thankful that his tail is where it is. That way he isn't constantly being reminded that it's a reflection on his pedigree. $ \textcircled{4} $
It should have a neat curl.
Better Than Dog's Life
But back to this love business. George never had it so good as when he and Charles Chitty, engineering senior, were friends together at Spooner-Thayer dormitory. Things were utopian, you might say. Then love stepped in.
Now George has character. He didn't suspect a thing when Chitty began going out nights instead of staying in with the books. Chitty was busy all right, but it was a wedding he was engineering.
The whole thing came off before George could say "Red Heart!" Erma Volkel, a summer session College sophomore, became Mrs. Chitty, and George became an orphan. He had been an orphan before, but somehow it wasn't the same anymore. The Union's 17 cent meat leaf no longer brought that lump to George's throat.
Why did George just go and settle down with Mr. and Mrs. Chitty out at Sunflower village? Well for one thing there'd be nobody to look after him, and, besides, George believes that eternal triangle stuff is strictly for the birds out in Hollywood.
Village Too Dull For George
So, George still lives at Spooner-Thayer dormitory, and he still meets Chitty down around Marvin hall every day. The whole thing is
