Advertising Manager Any Year Now--timers out of bed and witnessed a command performance staged by the oldsters. Good taste and censorship prevents correspondents from securing more details on this epoch-making threat to our existing social order. Fifty thousand war-weary sailors who, since V-J day, have been engaged in transporting Chinese troops and repatriating Japanese to and from North China have something to look forward to—another year of transporting Chinese and repatriating Japanese. Where is the Navy department? Where are the brass hats and gold braids who issue the cheerful home-coming reports? Maybe "just another year" in the life of a salty seaman doesn't mean a lot to the big boys who will put their feet under their own table on Thanksgiving day. Or maybe a forgotten fleet of fifty thousand home-sick men, putting in time transporting troops to fight in a war not our own, is the result of a lot of incompetent bungling administration. The navy boys and their commander, Adm. Daniel E. Barbey, figured, without much difficulty, that the United States ships engaged in transporting and repatriating could be manned largely by Chinese and Japanese nationals. How long will it take the boys in Washington to "brain out" something as good? Kansan Open Letters Dear Indiana U.: THE DAILY KANSAN Our loss is your gain. Professor Ashton was one of our best.

Dwight Eisenhower and his treatment of the Germans have begun. A few months ago we gave General Eisenhower an unprecedented welcome in this country. Are we people who must have a flag waving and a band playing to keep faith with a soldier who has done and is doing an excellent job? Rock Chalk Talk The American Way of Life. A corpse emerging from a barrel, spooks in corners, jack-o-lantern, and special torture chambers were feature events of a spine-chilling show at Henley house. However, the honor guest of the affair, Dr. Evelyn Misra of India, merely laughed off the terrifying display since the cadavers were stuffed pillows and sheets rather than some overworked K.U. student. After an hour and a half of a typical American Halloween celebration, Dr. Misra parted with the comment, "Now I've seen everything." By GEORGE CALDWELL Special delivery. A regular delivery of milk and medicine every noon has been added to the schedule of Dragon Lady of the Gamma Phi house, Jane Atwood. Why? The Sig Alphas have been making the daily deliveries because of a fatherly concern, on the part of "Peaches" Daugherty, for Miss Atwood's health. Mutiny on the bounty. K.U. frehmen and new students who are weary of domination by upper-classmen now may consult the new girls at Jolliffe hall to obtain blueprints for revolution.

University Daily Kansan Dear Editor: Investigation shows that the Greek political parties, Pachacamac and the unnamed women's Greek party, were the official sources of the news story, "Fresh Political Mixer Replaces Midweek," that appeared in the October 31 issue of the Daily Kansan. (b) According to University regulations a scheduled midweek will at all times take precedence over any other social event in the Union or elsewhere on the campus. Therefore no political mixer or meeting could ever replace a midweek unless scheduled without the permission and authoriation required by the W.E.C. SUNDAY thru Tuesday 2 FEATURES GENE AUTREY VARSITY (a) There was no midweek scheduled for October 31. It was, then, incorrect and misleading to say the mixer was to "replace" the midweek, and it appeared to attach undue importance to the rally. (c) The news story implies that the Student Union, intended for the use of all students, was to find itself TODAY — Ends Saturday "Under Fiesta Stars" and JOHN O'MALLEY TODAY — Ends Saturday "SUNSET" CARSON "Bandits of the Badlands" FRANK JENKS "The Missing Corpse" and Chapter Three "JUNGLE QUEEN" "Sporting Chance" 南 赤 向 It could happen to you. When a waiter approached Jean Murray, Kappa, and a friend to collect for grilled groceries consumed, both girls discovered they were without funds. The waiter, just call him great-heart, settled for an I.O.U. since most of the dishes were washed. How to Get a Buzz. Margie Nigus, not very heavily clad, was dramatically demonstrating the way in which she had posed for a portrait for the benefit of Foster hall friends. In the audience was an uninvited bee who caused Margie to act even more dramatic when she started to occupy the chair in which Mr. Bee was enthroned. You figure it out. Cleo Norris, aspiring headline writer, brought this one to Editing class the other day: SWAN'S ATTACK BUFFA-LOES MULES. Prof. Elmer Beth commited that it seemed a little "fowled" up and he didn't care for such horse-play. ** ** Bell Writes Article For Mathematics Journal P. O. Bell, professor of mathematics, has had published in the August, 1945, bulletin of the American Mathematical society, a research paper "Metric Properties of a Class of Quadratic Differential Forms." The paper is based on a work done on Euclidean applications of the projective differential geometry. housing a Greek political mixer at the expense of an all-University dance—that would be unfair discrimination. Editor's Note: The Daily Kansan published the above-mentioned story in good faith. Was this story an example of machine politics or merely negligence and oversight? The answer to this question can come only through the future activities of the Greek parties. William Vandiver.
