Kansan Comments Hopes for Peace Overshadow April Fools' Pranks on Easter
For the seventeenth time since 1776, when this nation began official operations, Easter and April Fool's Day will come in together next Sunday.
White rabbits and gaily colored eggs will be around to delight freshly-scrubbed little boys and girls. But it is doubtful that practical jokers will have much place in the Easter setting, for the dawn of peace is near. Church and prayer will be uppermost in the hearts of people everywhere. Their thoughts will be centered on those men and women who are represented by stars in the windows. Next Sunday will be a day of remembrance and hope for all of us.
The past year has brought tragedy to many lives. The invasion in Europe followed by reverses in the Rhineland, blood-soaked Iwo Jima, and the Philippine campaign—all are memories colored with grief.
But Easter comes Sunday as a beacon of bright faith. With it comes the assurance of victory on all fronts to reward our confidence in the trying days of the past dark years. American troops are plunging deeper and deeper into German territory; their success encourages prophecies that the war in Europe will be over before another Easter, and even before another Christmas. Knockout blows against Japan are scattering her big hopes to the Nipponese winds. The 1945 Lenten season will be remembered as a period during which sacrifice brought victories.
This Easter, peace does not seem far away. There is no reason however, to clothe our thinking in rosy optimism. Many thorns must be removed before we can return to our pre-war happy-go lucky attitude.
Human suffering will not disappear with the armistice. The wounded must be cared for, and battle-worn countries must get to the work of rebuilding. The effect of this war cannot quickly be erased from the blackboard of history.
We will have much to think about as we go to church next Sunday.—E.A.B.

Tunnel of love, fish pond, and a fortune teller are among the booths planned for the annual carnival at the University of Southern California. Chairman of the committee in charge of the committee in charge admitted that they were out to get lots of money in this "all-university dig." Most popular is expected to be the kissing booth with a beautiful co-ed in charge. It's special purpose is for the orientation of new marines on the campus!

Rock Chalk Talk
Did you say raid or red?—Clad in the alphabetical attire of bed (p. j.'s to you) infuriated Phi Psi's dashed to the rescue of three hurriedly redecorated cars, in time to see Alpha Chi cipultebros putting finishing touches (red painted head lights, windows, and miscellaneous streamers and old socks) on the jalopies of Crawford, Silks, and McCaul. Avenging brothers, Atkinson and Chestnut, painted faces of femmes with three shades of shoe polish and arrived home to see a Phi Sign—"Happy Easter, Egg."
My Old Flame—Before lighting their one cigaret, Beta's Elton Hoff and Bob Schwanzle leaned out the window to watch horseshoe-heaving brethren and dropped precious fag on the roof. While searching, Elton not only almost fell but was locked out of the house. Tiring of their horseshoe game, the players turned to pelting Hoff and house with mud balls. After Elton had finally lighted the cig again, it was dropped once more to the first floor where eager spectators finished it. Moral—if your cig is on the roof, don't fall hoff.
Dear Mom? — Glancing through "Pi Philes," Genie Hepworth, scholarship chairman, noticed certain scrappy inserts. Not knowing if they belonged there, she read a few which began, "Dear ---, Here I am

"And throw the key away"—Finding new uses for her new key, Mary Margaret Morris, Kappa, tried it in the door of Gower Place. Seeing it didn't work she lightly tossed it aside. Evening found M.M.M. still scratching for the pin with flashlight, urged on by the phantom image of Marge Free whose key she wore.

"Spring has Sprung" — Sirens blared at Tom Bailey, Phi Gam, as he drove down Massachusetts because, barked one of the cops, "That low hanging trunk on your car looks suspicious. Let's have a look in there!" Despite his pleas, "But I tell you, the springs are just broken," and "I can't find the keys," he was finally forced to open the trunk disclosing three cases of coke to crestfallen cops.

Because of the changeable spring weather, the V-12's on Purdue's campus had their uniform changed four times in one morning. Biggest shock came when a PE instructor told his class that the uniform of the day would be swim trunks' n paddle boards. Then there was the sailor who was caught wearing a white hat instead of the blue. Surprising the officer, he pulled his blue from a pocket—boasting that he was always prepared. Yes, the fellows suddenly became quick-change artists!

Come the revolution at Colorado State college—girls at last have invaded the male-dominated pool room at the Student Union. Although many were baffled to discover that the pool room wasn't a place to swim, still they have become quite sharp at the game. At least every girl's password is—"Pardon me, boys, this is my cue!"
