The Faculty Shows Us Up
The campus Memorial Drive fund campaign has now run for more than two weeks and so far the response has been only half-hearted. Student contributions have not yet reached $2,000 of a goal of $10,000.
This apparent lack of interest is in direct contrast to what is being experienced in other branches of the drive. The people of Lawrence have already passed the half-way mark in their quota of $50,000. Members of the Memorial Drive committee who have been visiting various localities throughout the state report a great enthusiasm for the project in nearly all cases.
One of the best responses to the entire fund campaign has come from the University faculty. Though comparatively few in number, they have already contributed $6,500. Many of these faculty members are still being paid salaries on the pre-war level.
What is the explanation of this apparent lack of student interest in the memorial project? It can hardly be that it has not been thoroughly explained. The Memorial committee has gone to great lengths to promote a thorough understanding of the entire project. Perhaps all students have not been contacted personally for contributions. But it should be common knowledge by now that any contributions can be left either at the Alumni office or at the Memorial association office (room 218) both in Frank Strong hall.
The students and faculty are the groups most closely related to the University. Contributions from other sources will tend to fall behind if we do not demonstrate real interest and support for this project. The faculty members have done their part. It is now up to the student body.

Are they scarce too? Doc Wheeler's latest outstanding feature is a brand new mustache of about three weeks growth. On a recent trip to the "Mite", Roy Borgen, the proprietor, sent the waitress to the table with a meat from the house—a silver platter holding one lone razor blade.
Happy Easter—Doc Sherman and Pat Maloney, Phil Delt's aren't such successful farmers afterall. The pink and blue baby chickens (The Beta colors) they received as Easter gifts from two Gamma Phil's lived a short life. One died the next day, despite careful feedings and an incubator home, and Pat swears that he didn't fry the one that disappeared.
SOS-Sig Alph Jack Ballard's latest claim to fame is a statement uttered in great stress during the Sigma Chi-Sig Algh game. Jack ripped a huge hole in his slacks in the midst of the struggle. After canvassing the entire female audience, he was finally taken from the game screaming, "Isn't there one safety pin in the house?"
Civil War—Intra-dorm warfare has reached new proportions at the Sigma Chi house, Ernie Wildhagen and Eddie Sheldon (master crafts-men) silently sealed Doug McCleod and Frank Patee in their room while they were "hitting the books." Never one to leave a job half done, Ernie after securing the door with no less than three hasps and half a dozen screws decided it was safe to make a little noise and began gleefully hammering in two inch spikes. At this time Patee decided action was necessary and proceeded to kick the door out. A brief scuffle ensured climaxed by Doug's parting remark, "This is a dirty trick and it means OPEN WAR."
Back to Nature. Disregarding the abnormal amount of H2O so prevalent these days, one must admit that spring, or something closely resembling it, is here. And with spring there are always pics.

Saturday the three D.U. Veitch brothers, Jack, Lee and Bob decided to have a picnic of their own, with proper feminine accompaniment, of course. But they decided too late to get the usual food requisites. Their dates told them they weren't interested in a picnic without food. I guess the way to a woman's heart is through her stomach, too.
