TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY. DECEMBER 14, 1944 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Letter to the Editor Editor's Note: David Battenfeld was a student at the University from the summer session of 1943 until last month. During the last session he was co-chairman of the Democratic party, and he has served in the armed services since November. As a student for nearly two years at K.U. and one who was always interested in student government, I cannot help but be affected by the recent ruling of the Chancellor in regard to the A.S.C. and the Sour Owl. From what facts I can gather, I cannot help but feel that the Chancellor was fully justified in taking the action that he did. Student government is fully dependent upon the students. If they want it badly enough, they will get it. But here the woolful ineffectiveness and insignificance of the A.S.C certainly cannot be expected to stir any students uninterested in student government anyway, and may dishearten those who work for it. When all the A.S.C. can find to do is to quarrel with the K Club over freshman caps, or put out a lewd magazine, it is time to investigate why such a case has come about. To The Editor: The superficial trouble seems to me to be the caliber of persons on the A.S.C. Last year's Council was an outstanding group, and did much toward more student responsibility. But the very Council members who are supposed to be the school leaders have put out this inane magazine and wrought disgrace upon themselves, the A.S.C., and the entire University. But this fault goes to the very heart of student politics itself. Student elections are tremendous fakes. The principal aim of all parties is not to further the cause of student government by putting up progressive, intelligent leaders as candidates, but merely to win by putting up popular athletic heroes, or by vicious attacks on the fraternities, thus widening a breach between "barbs" and frat men, that must be closed completely for any harmonious and united action by the students ever to take place. Students of Kansas University! We are fighting a war to preserve democracy. But what kind of democracy are you going to have in the United States, if you refuse to take the advantages offered you now?

I'm Bob-bglad to meet you." Don't dare make a statement like "You're kidding, of course," or you'll be answered, "No, I am not Kidding of Course, Jim." It's maddening, to say the least, and you can blame it on Bill Douglas, Phi Gam, who started it all, and Fiji pledge brethren who have succeeded admirably in running it in the ground. "Are you tired?" "No, I'm McDermott." "Gosh, I'm hungry." — "You are? Well, I'm Hargiss." Eeeeek! By PAT PENNEY Kansas U. is now being governed under a good and necessary dictatorship. Necessary because you refuse to shoulder the burden yourselves. And thank God that it is of a sort that will yield power to you as you prove yourselves ready to take it. For unless you prove that you truly desire responsibility and self-government, you may one day find a dictatorship in America that is neither good nor necessary. Fascism is no joke! Show an interest in your A.S.C., and you can have a Student Council that will make K.U. a model for all colleges in America! 杂 杂 杂 Ask Mary "Gus" Zeller, Kappa pledge, for a look at her driver's Lie-cense---- Pvt.

Marian Howe, Alpha Delt, certainly could've used a good bone-putter-back-in-place the other night. Mar got so excited over the bond sales for the Bond Queen that she jumped off a desk and threw a hip out of place. It was a tough fight, and we hope it was worth it. Somewhere over the rainbow--shock. Any similarity between lipstick and what was all over her face and neck was far from coincidental. At 8:25, sisters were still busily scrubbing Nancy who arrived at class somewhat tardy with an unusually rosy complexion. Now Pi Phis are singing, "If she cuckoos like a cuckoo in a clock—it's Love, Love, Love." "Rainbow" Jones, they're calling him these days. That's Bob Jones, Sig Alp pledge, who showed up at a basketball game the other night in a pair of pink, blue, and yellow striped shorts (they tell us!). There ought to be a law—or somepin'. Nancy Love, Pi Phi pledge, dressed hurriedly for school one morning this week, and in groping around in the dark in her room (yep, there was an active asleep there!) picked up what she believed to be her perfume stick. It comes in a tube remarkably similar to a lipstick. Nancy gave herself quick swipes across the face and neck and behind the ears. Then tore out into the lighted hallway, got one look at herself in the mirror, and almost fainted from Tabu on you---shock. Any similarity between lipstick and what was all over her face and neck was far from coincidental. At 8:25, sisters were still busily scrubbing Nancy who arrived at class somewhat tardy with an unusually rosy complexion. Now Pi Phis are singing, "If she cuckoos like a cuckoo in a clock—it's Love, Love, Love." The C.V.C. meeting previously scheduled for tonight will not be held, Joan Burch, head of C.V.C., has announced C.V.C. Meeting Called Off The Betas went Christmas caroling a few nights back, and were cordially received — until they left one sorority house singing. "Merrily we roll along—down to the KKG'S." Dead silence rather than applause greeted this rendition; then one sweet feminine voice chimed out, "Goodnight, Phi Delts." I'd rather be a dirty dog--- Pardon me, you look like Margie— Carl Clark, Phi Delt, has been wearing hair ribbons and bobby socks, since he saw in the Campus VARSITY TODAY - THURSDAY "AIR FORCE" This scene will be duplicated in millions of homes this Christmas. Let us hope that before Christmas 1945, America will be at peace forever. Millions of boys will come home, as they went away-by bus. When the war is a memory, look to Overland Greyhound for the best in bus transportation. "Well keep it shining until he comes home! " Remember—The boys will need the buses for those holiday furloughs. For a welcome gift—give your seat to a fighting man. Union Bus Depot 638 Mass.
