Yes, This Is Exceedingly Awful Indeed
By ALLEN DALE SMITH
So I'm sitting there reading my Daily Kansan, as every respectable student should at 3 p.m., when my eye focuses on this story about Dandelion lay. Now there is a very good deal, indeed. In fact, if they put this on a ballot I will certainly vote for it although I still don't understand these politics.
But here they say that maybe we can get a whole day vacation with nothing to do but dig dandelions, eat at picnics, and dance in the street. That is to my liking more than somewhat.
proaching are these two schmoes. This is exceedingly awful. How can we dig dandelions and have a vacation, if these characters are going to exterminate the little creatures with this new chemical spray gun?
Work Begun On $140,000 Union Annex
All of a sudden my peace of mind is greatly shattered, because ap-
Work began Friday on the $140,000 Union annex after more than two months of delavs and false starts.
Ogden Jones, chairman of the Union Operating committee, estimated that the project will be finished early next fall.
"Now that the work has started I hope we don't run into any more bad weather or other delays," he said.
A power shovel has begun to dig into the hill north of the Union building for the new foundation. Most of the material for the annex has been obtained, Mr. Jones said. Only glazed tile for interior finish is lacking.
Work on the annex was planned to begin March 1. Bad weather, mud, and a strike of construction employees caused delay.
Planned For March
The new extension will have another kitchen and dining room and more space for lounging and recreation.
The proposed roof-top dance floor, one story high and extending 60 feet to the north of the present building, will be finished in smooth concrete. This surface can be waxed and will accommodate 480 couples.
Financed By Bonds
The annex will be financed by long term bonds to be paid off by student activity fees, and will be constructed so that additional stories can be added.
Another annex to the south of the present building is already being talked of. This extension, a threestory structure, will complete the unit.
Anderson To Give Recital Tonight
Merton Anderson, tenor from the studio of Miss Irene Peabody, will present his senior recital tonight in Frank Strong auditorium.
He has been tenor soloist in the choir of the First Methodist church of Lawrence, doing solo work in "The Messiah," "The Creation," and other works. In addition to being a member of the a cappella choir and men's glee club, he has done solo parts in choral works given at Baker university, Paola, and other nearby cities.
Mr. Anderson is a member of Phi Mu Alpha, professional music fraternity, and was recently elected to membership in Pi Kappa Lambda, national honorary music society.
Lawrence Journalists On Tour Of Europe
Mr. Dolph Simons, of the Lawrence Journal-World, and Mr. Waldo Bowman, editor of the Engineering News-Record of New York, are among the 12 editors and publishers who will go on a month's inspection tour of occupied areas in Europe next week.
Mr. Bowman is a former Lawrence resident and graduate of the University in 1923.
7:50 A. M. Whistle Doesn't Until 90 Seconds Later
The University whistle blew one and one-half minutes late this morning. The power had been shut off for 30 minutes Sunday and the clock was set wrong.
"When we set the clock Sunday after the power came on we used our own watches and they were probably off some," an official at the power plant explained.
- The whistle was back on schedule at 10:50 today.
