THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Union Will Use Carnival Profit For Activities
Confetti, queer exotic costumes intermingling with blue jeans or skirts and sweaters, and men in navy blue or the traditional collegiate slacks and sweaters, Josting crowds sweeping from one booth to another, crayon-decorated paper gradually being torn off the stands as the evening becomes more hilarious—this will be the scene at the Union carnival, Saturday night.
Although the chief incentive for the hours of hasty but hard work necessary to "throw" such a project together is, as far as many students are concerned, to have a little fun and to break the monotonous study routine, the project has a more serious purpose. This year profits from the carnival will go to the Student Union Activity fund to aid in meeting the expenses incurred by the group in sponsoring its many activities, such as Saturday afternoon canteen dances, various hobby clubs, maintenance of a lost-and-found department and of a travel agency.
In previous years, surplus cash was used for the benefit of the local Young Women's Christian Association or to supplement a student scholarship fund. Post-war projects on the campus also have derived aid from money turned over to them by the carnival committees in bygone years. Although dedicated to a different objective each season, this annual carnival was originated for a worthy cause, and profits made possible by the students' co-operation and enthusiasm are always turned back into some plan which will pay the students dividends.
So, even though you're not racked with pangs of hunger or wildly impatient to discover your immediate future, spend an extra dime at the refreshment stand or give the fortune teller a chance to "strut her stuff" Saturday night. You, or some underclassman you know, will receive the benefits of it perhaps a month, perhaps a year, perhaps ten years from now—JF.

Great Galloping Ghosts! Gross Anatomy is the battlefield where Doris Bixby and Dorothy Stump, aspiring young medics, are learning the tricks of the trade. Doris, uncertain as to the relationship which should exist between herself and her friendly subject, was proceeding slowly when the army medic working on a cadaver behind her turned to address a question to the engrossed Miss Bixby. He touched her shoulder to gain her attention and then recoiled in horror at the amount of it she gave him. With an unholy shriek Doris left the floor and so, might we add, did the other members of this particular class in anatomy.

Tippierary Tales — Frantic voices rang over the telephone at "Tippierary" "Please come and get us out of the 'Cottage'" were the sobbing pleas of Marian Minor and Alice Goldsworthy to Polly Staples, "We don't have any money and the 'brute' won't let us out until you come pay our check!" Virtually all the girls on second floor rallied, abandoned their studies, threw on their street clothes, and dashed to the rescue. Outside on the doorstep sat Marian and Alice patiently waiting. Tippierary decided that two telephone lines

"Beyond the Call of Duty"—Edith "Butch" Sula, Corbin, was galvanized into action one morning recently when a heavy hand fell on her door and a graffu voice mumbled, "Plumber." Instantly housecoated, Butch admitted the intruder and, to use her own words, he "looked at the plumbing and left." Shortly afterward roommate Jean Pike opened the door the same man had come back to "recheck" the plumbing. Butch bemoans the fact that in the meantime she had left for class. "He could tell I'd washed my hair," she said. "It still had the laundry tag..."
Howard E. Baldwin, pfc., USMCR,
dead. Parents, Mr. and Mrs. Fred

"The Doors Swing I-n-n-n, the doors swing out—" but Professor Melvin of the history department prefers them not to swing at all. Members of his Modern Europe class all but collapsed recently when his ires against the idly swinging classroom door mounted higher and higher. In the flick of an eyelash, he dashed out the door and followed it right back in. The rite produced a magical stabilizing effect. "It takes years to learn little tricks like that," he confided—and the class roared on!

Kansas Pay for Official Is Lowest of Any State
"Kansas pays its state superintendent of public instruction the lowest salary of any of the 48 states," William D. Wolfe, city superintendent of schools at Atchison, told a conference of secondary and primary schools this week. He said too, that Kansas is one of only eight states that continue to elect their state superintendents instead of appointing them.
With the departure of army trainees from the Colorado College campus Dec. 2, the school will resume use of its Student Union building. The entire building will be opened for students in January.
