One For All
All over the Hill nominating committees are meeting now for "preliminary considerations" of next year's officers. Whether they emerge with a collective list of 15 or 50 to "carry on" is the question we are waiting to have answered.
There should be at least 50 names on the list. But if the cabinet meetings of one or two organizations are indicative, all the jobs on the Hill will again be dealt out to 15 or 20 students.
Nominating committees seldom display much originality. If one student has been elected president of another organization, they reason that means something. That means he is efficient and would be a good president for them—at least a good treasurer.
So the people who made the mistake of being precocious underclassmen find themselves drowning in a sea of officers.
Certainly they accept them. They don't mind—until it is too late. To a sophomore, being trusted with many things is an honor and a thrill. The sophomore always says yes.
But usually by the end of his junior year—certainly by the middle of his senior year, the unfailing effect has begun to take hold.
He finds that he needs a 35-hour day and several more sets of arms and legs to do all the things asked of him. He finds himself stuck with a half dozen jobs—honors, he thought—but because there are so many of them, they cease to thrill him.
Because he is competent and reliable he realizes what he is obliged to do—and not having the time to fulfill his obligations is frustrating to him.
His organizations in turn become impatient; they feel they aren't progressing as well as they should because their elected leader neglects them. He misses a meeting to study for a mid-semester, and five indignant members jump on him the next day.
During the war, the campus fell into the habit of letting too few people do too much. In all probability such concentration of responsibility was not warranted, even with the shortage of men. Certainly now with more than 5,000 students on the campus, there is a different one for every major position.

The Unveiling. Some people have the ability to do the right thing at the right time, and some people don't have the ability to do anything at the right time. We do with the following incident, we don't know; but ponder on it.
Anyway, Mary Schnitzler (Schnitz) did the wrong thing one day in the not-so-distant past, when she conducted Charlie Smith, SAE to the water-cooler in the Gamma Phi back yard. Several of the girls were attempting to acquire a santa in said backyard, and weren't exactly dressed to receive Charlie or any other member of the opposite sex. Besides embarrassing some of the lovely maids, the whole affair has given Charlie an inferiority complex. Says he, "I thought I wasn't popular because no one leaped up to meet me as they usually do"
Water over the... If anyone has any extra room in his living quarters there are four Phi Delt's, and maybe more, who may soon be looking for a new home. It's not that Mrs. Kramer disapproves of a miniature Niagra Falls in the living-room, dining-room, hallways, bedrooms, and down the stairs. It just that Bert Morris, Carl Clark, Dick Hawkinson, and Corky Baker go about the thing in such a determined manner. When those boys say "water fight," they mean it.
Turn about is... play. We are now quoting Leon Thomas, SAE and we refuse to take any responsibility for the ensuing story. A census has been taken at the Gamma Phi house, and it seems that one Bill Daugherty, SAE, has only 22 more Gamma Phi to go before he will have dated every girl in the house. In what we call admirable spirit, the Gamma Phi's

Canuteson Speaks
Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the University health service, spoke yesterday at the refresher course on internal medicine at the University of Kansas School of Medicine, Kansas City. His topic was "Functional Heart Diseases."
have decided to number consecutively, so that the next time Bill phones, in order to make things less confusing for him, they will simply call the girl whose number has come up. The situation sounds vaguely familiar.
Nelson, Lawson, Smith Attend Chicago Meeting
But I . . . Didn't you enjoy the first number at the dance Saturday night? You know, the one in which the four lovely damselfls danced, chorus-like? Well, those skirts were borrowed and after the ball was over, someone placed them neatly in the back seat of Phi Psi Bryon Schutz's car, to be returned to their respective owners. By, all unknowing, "Nobody ever tells me anything!" drove the car home Sunday morning, and returned just in time for study hall Sunday night. There followed a frantic phone call from Father Schutz, the general drift of the conversation being, "Where in (should we say it?) did those four skirts come from?" The tragedy of the whole thing was that Byron, Jr. didn't know any more about it than did Byron, Sr.
J. H. Nelson, dean of the Graduate school, and Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, left today to attend the annual North Central association meeting in Chicago. George B. Smith, dean of the School of Education, is already there.
