The Aggie Way
Because they wanted it that way, K-State students had two days for Thanksgiving instead of one. Because they have an established holiday system, recognized and respected by students, faculty, and president, they have no problems confronting their school as a result of a student walkout.
A holiday committee on the Kansas State student council, upon recommendation of the whole council, submits plans for movable holidays to the president of the college for his approval. The plan is submitted in writing at least four days before the proposed holiday.
The council has power to declare two school days as holidays every year. The president believes in the students' good judgment and intelligence in authorizing them to choose the holidays.
Still on a 16-week term basis, K-Staters were to get one day for Thanksgiving. Acting on the suggestion of students and campus groups, the council arranged to use one of the "blanket" holidays to lengthen the Thanksgiving vacation. This was decided early in the term. All students knew about it and accepted it.
At the same time they agreed not to have a holiday after the KU game—even if they won. Had they decided to declare a victory holiday, their plan to the president would have read, "If we win from KU, . . ."
A little orderly procedure and faculty-student cooperation seem to do a neater job than walkouts.

Lost—one bag. If any of you see Mary Branigan walking forlornly along the campus with the look of the hunter in her eye you will know that she's looking for her lost overnight bag. Sunday night, Mary happily returned to dear old KU only to find herself packed into a taxi with a mere dozen joyful knowledge-seeking students.
By ANNE
In the course of their travels over the city it seems that Mary's little bag bounced right out of the taxi's trunk. As a result poor Mary and the taxi driver wandered over the hill
Letters to the Editor
Compliments to K.U. From K-State Dean
SCOTT
University Daily Kansan To the Editor
To the Daily Kansan;
This is to express my personal appreciation for the efforts of the University of Kansas students and staff to include the students and staff of Kansas State college in various phases of your Homecoming activities at Lawrence. The hospitality of the University was cordial and the homecoming program of events was capably planned and carried out. Of course, we here in Manhattan have some regrets as to the outcome of the football game, but I imagine they are not shared on your campus.
Plans Should Be Made Now for Future, Senior Says
Every time demonstrations similar to last week's walkout have occurred the primary thought of the University and the All-Student Council has been punishment as an aftermath. Why haven't these situations been anticipated? Why haven't working solutions been presented?
Surely these failures in the past to unite the student body with the administration do not make a solution incorporating the desires of all factions impossible, illogical, or impractical with this student body. K-State has at least a working plan. Perhaps our student government can improve on that plan or use a similar one. But we cannot sacrifice its name nor the student body's good will simply because we do not have a better solution.
Plans should be laid out that can be put into operation for any general spontaneous action.
Enforcement accompanied by logical and sufficient penalties must be provided.
Sincerely,
Russell I. Thackrey,
Dean of Administration
A solution for the present problem should be worked out once and for all.

Spoon sandwich, big joke. Everything seems to have happened in the city, but the Phi Delts, not to be outdone, had a party. After the game, the boys and their dates traveled around from house to house eating all the left-over turkey. They finally ended up at Ralph (truth or consequences?) Edwards.
and dale flashlight in hand hunting for the little lost bag. She hasn't found it yet, so if anybody finds a stray bag, just call Mary.
It may have been a consequence or it may have been attempted murder—anyway, when Carl Clark bit down on his sandwich, he found a large sized spoon imbedded deeply within it. No one knows just how it got there, but Carl hasn't recovered yet. He even went to bed Monday night with the sparrows—at 9 p.m.
Momnie, the circus is in town.
During their jaunt to the city to play for the game, the band stopped at the Plaza. While director Wiley hunted around for a suitable eating place for his kidnes, Al Ritts dropped into a dime store to see his cousin who worked there. As Al stepped from the bus in his band uniform a little boy excitedly screamed, "Mommie, mommie! look at the clown!"
Result—Al dashed back to the bus to don his Navy coat.
Piming, but where? After the fine MU-KU game, Sally Krehbald, Tom Sinclair, Cathy Piller, and Todd Alkens adjourned to a nice KC spot to take in some local color. Suddenly the zipper of Sally's red suit skirt just refused to co-operate. Tom, rising to the occasion, offered his Phi Psi pin for assistance.
So Sally saved the day by combining her Kappa key with the sigh boy's pin. Ah yes—pining, need we say more.
Rumor of the week—It has been heard that Chancellor Malott has written a book entitled, "Mein Campus."
'Campus Problems' Is Speech Contest Topic
"Preliminary Campus Problems, will be the subject of a speaking contest to be held at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Little Theater of Green hall. All students are eligible to enter."
Speeches should be about four minutes long and may cover any phase of student and campus life, Prof. E. C. Buehler of the speech department said today. Eight of the speakers will be selected by the judges to participate in the finals on Dec. 5. The winner at that time will be awarded a trophy by the speech department.
Judges will be Mrs. Frances Feist,
Prof. Robert Calderwood, and
Professor Buchler.
