1885 Students Got By On $185 Each Semester
Come to K.U. Have a large time.
Only $185 per semester. . . all expenses paid.
Sounds good, but you're 61 years late.
Back in 1885 the University advertised the following expenses to be incurred by a student each semester:
Board, 40 weeks at $2.25; $90; room,
40 weeks at $1; $40; fuel and lights;
$10; washing and incidentals; $20;
books; $15; fees; $10.
Total. $185.
Of course one could cut down on new yo-yo strings, sody water, and Sen-Sen, and clip another $10 from the budget. If you were unfortunate enough to be an orphan of a soldier or a citizen killed in Quantrill's raid, the University quite generously exempted you from the five-dollar continent fee.
So by shivering a bit, wearing your dickies slightly soiled and cutting out your hair-falutin' airs, the college character, vintage 1885, could be quite

PROF. ALLEN CRAFTON

A naive flapper, a sentimental diplomat, a prize fighter, and a self-conscious vamp spend a weekend in the home of an eccentric family in Noel Coward's "Hay Fever," to be presented by a student cast, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday in Fraser theater.
A completely new set has been constructed and painted for the production. Cloth for covering the flats used in the sets has been unavailable since 1941, and some flats have had to be painted more than 20 times.
The 1938 campus of production of "Hay Fever" had a six-night run, and additional performances may be arranged this year if the demand necessitates them, Allen Crafton, director, said.
"Hay Fever" is the first full-length play to be presented this year.
The executive council of the Independent Organization has appointed Jacqueline Goodell, Foster hall, as representative from the fourth women's precinct, Lois Thompson, president, said today. Miss Goodell replaces Johnnie May Mann whose resignation was accepted last week.

That's No Hill, Son---No Hill, That Is What's More, We Can Prove It
A topographical map furnishes the

(Daily Kansas Staff Writer)
"It goes straight up," moans the sleepy sophomore who shamplies up the slope at 8:29, toward an 8:30 class in Lindley hall.
The angle of incline at 14th and Ohio streets is—not 90 degrees, not 45 degrees, but 7 degrees, 25 minutes. This represents a rise of about a foot and a half for every 13 horizontal feet.
But it doesn't!
And we can prove it. One windy day last weekend, we borrowed a clinometer from D. D. Haines, associate professor of civil engineering and measured the hill.
The sum of squares of the two sides equals the square of the hyponotenuse—and that makes the 14th street hill too steep, chum!
information that the elevation is close to 90 feet. Horizontally, it's a little more than 690 feet, and the hypotenuse, the part you climb, is less than 700 feet.
Now that you know it's really no hill at all, you should be able to sprint up without taking an etra breath. Maybe that's why the new sign has been installed at the top, warning, "Speed limit 20 miles."
You can always dodge the issue by riding the bus or detouring and walking up Mississippi street. The next generation of Jayhawkers may fly up the hill in helicopters.
But, mere figures don't change the impossibility of scaling the slope on an icy day. Going up, you forget how easy it is to slide down, and stumbling down in spike heels, you forget how hard it was getting up.
We'd still like to have an escalator!
Churchill Slaps Soviet 'Shadow' On Allied World
BULLETIN
London. (UP)—Anthony Eden denied in Commons today that Winston Churchill intended to "put Russia on the spot" by his speech at Fulton, Mo.
Eden said he had heard nothing of the kind from Churchill, and would not believe it "for one single minute."
Official sources said Churchill spoke as an individual, and denied implications that his address had the approval of the British government.
Fulton, Mo., (UP)—Winston Churchill said today that Russia seeks "indefinite expansion" of her "power and doctrines," and called for a permanent Ango-American military alliance which might some day include common citizenship.
Pointing to the Soviet "shadow" upon "scenes so lately lighted by the Allied victory," the former British prime minister called for firm and immediate steps, including establishment of an international armed force by the United Nations Organization, to prevent another war.
Great Britain's wartime leader was introduced by President Truman as he spoke at little Westminster college here, and the president had seen the prepared text before it was delivered.
This small Missouri town and its sedate college campus provided an incongruous setting for Churchill's thundering denunciation of the manner in which Communists in Europe "power factions"eyed their numbers, "power are seizing everywhere to obtain totalitarian control."
Then he got down to international cases, making these points in rapid succession:
At the outset, Churchill told his audience of college students and rural Missourians that he spoke without any official standing, that he was speaking only for himself.
4. There should be cooperative Anglo-American use of sea and air bases. This would be in continuance of wartime "mutual security."
1. The UNO must "immediately" begin an "international armed force" with each participating nation providing air force units.
2. It would be wrong to give the atomic bomb secrets to UNO. They should be held for the time being by this country, Great Britain, and Canada.
3. The people of any nation should be given the right of "free, unfettered elections, with secret ballots."
5. A "special relationship" between this country and the British commonwealth would be consistent with overriding loyalties to UNO.
6. "Nobody knows what Soviet Russia or its Communist international organization intends to do in the immediate future, or what are the limits if any to their expansive and proselytizing tendencies."
7. The "Russian dominated" Polish government has made "enormous and wrongful inroads upon Germany...
8. One of the more "somber facts . . . on the morrow of a victory" is the "growing challenge and peril to Christian civilization" caused by Communist parties or fifth columns," around the world.
