Dear Buildings and Grounds:
How about some light on the subject of those broken wooden steeps over the new Lilac Lane drain, before some nocturnal student breaks his clavicle in the dark?

Letters to the Editor
Upon coming to the University, all new students are urged to participate in and attend as many University programs as possible. The idea is a good one until classes begin. Then, no matter what good lecture or concert is to be given, class assignments are never reduced to make it possible for students to feel free to go.
Dear editor:

This is a terrible problem for the conscientious student who takes pride in getting classwork in on time and done well. Likewise, the student dislikes to miss some of these other activities, that he has helped pay for, which are really just as educational as any regular course could be. The fact that the University sponsors them is proof

Ring Out, Wild Bells, Rumor has it that Fran Pierpont, SAE, and Ann Alexander, Chi O, celebrated a "third anniversary" last Sunday. Since such observances don't occur on the campus every day, some of the more pensive Sig Alph's are wondering just what event it is that comes in for sorsaid tertiary celebratin'
Ah. Sweet Revenge! Evidently the Sigma Kappa "pledge-lings" thought that the time had arrived to cast off from the old apron strings and head for greener pastures.

Wasting no time, they sneaked away from the house at six a. m., Saturday. But first they did things up right by tying shut all the second-floor doors and by overturning furniture right and left.
The sisters returned from their excursion at 10 o'clock Saturday eve; they found that for some unfathomable reason all the doors and windows of the house had been securely locked.
The green little Greeks finally gained entrance through one unlocked window, but not until they

The motivation for such acrobatics was a screen which had evidently weared of the monotony of hanging in the same old position day after day. So, it dropped off; Clarence dropped in to fix it; the girls dropped to by watch.
Any independent students interested in helping in the Independents office, Union sub-basement, in the afternoons, should contact Lois Thompson, president of Independents, phone 980.

Flying Club to Elect
Jayhawk Flying club officers will be elected in the regular class meeting tomorrow, in 609 Marvin hall, Prof. W. M. Simpson, of the aero-nautical engineering announced to-day.
While studies shouldn't be forgotten, teachers shouldn't expect students to attend these cultural programs and then stay up half the night trying to catch up on what would have been done had they not gone.
I know that students would be happier, healthier, and probably better educated, if more consideration of assignments were given on days when special programs were coming up.
Sincerely, Cleo Norris

THE QUARTER HITS THE LINE-1903
In that year, for the first time in college annals, the quarter could run with the ball snapped direct from center. Brains and speed succeeded crude mass play, and the modern game began. It was a popular innovation. Like Railway Express round-trip service for college laundry and baggage, the new method once tried out became nation-wide standard practice. Make a standard practice, too, of packing and wrapping securely, addressing clearly and starting early whatever you have to express. It will help all concerned.

RESEARCH AND ENGINEERING KEEP GENERAL ELECTRIC YEARS AHEAD
A NEW "HOUSE OF MAGIC" FOR POSTWAR AMERICA
Crowded in its present quarters, the G-E Research Laboratory will soon move to a more spacious location. Five miles east of Schenectady, New York, is a site that offers special advantages for a "House of Magic" of the future. On a rocky cliff overlooking the Mohawk River, it is particularly adaptable to work with radar, television, high-frequency, jet engines, and x-ray.
A staff of 800—expanding the present 550—will carry on research in a laboratory built on a 219-acre lot.
Since its birth the G-E Research Laboratory has contributed much to better living, not only through scientific achievement, but through increased efficiency, as in the case of the modern incandescent lamp.
And in the future G.E. will continue and expand the work it has begun. In the words of Dr. Coolidge, former laboratory director, "A research laboratory is essentially a group of men engaged in extending the frontiers of knowledge." General Electric Co. Schenectady, N.Y.
