Additional Eating Places Needed For Students on Campus
With the opening of the Jayhawk Cafe today, the eating situation on the campus will be eased slightly. Lunch hours, however, still find long lines of students and faculty members waiting patiently, or impatiently. as the case may be, to be served.
Although the sorority houses, a few fraternities, the women's and men's dormitories, the co-operative houses maintain their own tables to take care of several hundred students, there are still hundreds of men and women who have to try to crowd into two or three small cafes or the Union cafeteria and get served in the one hour they are allowed for lunch. Consequently, many students either go hungry or are late to class if they persist in awaiting their turn. To compensate for not getting their necessary nourishment at meal-time, these students then go down to the Fountain or some other cafe and fill up on candy bars, coke, etcetera.
The labor shortage is a real prob.
Jem, it is true and the lack of equipment is also a serious handicap. The Union fountain, for instance, does not have and can not obtain large coffee urns at the present time, and is forced to serve dozens of persons every hour by filling and re-filling the small silex coffee pots they do have.
Professors Give Lecture Series About Russia
Despite these difficulties, however, it should be possible for some enterprising business man or perhaps the University administration itself, to obtain the necessary help and equipment and open up an additional eating place on or near the campus. If they find it impossible to operate seven days a week, they should attempt to close on some week day, because both the Union cafeteria and the fountain close on Sundays, making it harder than ever for the Hill students to find some place to eat.
Whoever has the initiative to start such a project can be almost assured of success.
The most important cultural event of the summer was a series of lectures on Russia given by members of the faculty. The series of five lectures was arranged by Prof. John Ashton of the department of English. The speakers were Prof. Ashton, Prof. Sam Anderson of the department of German, Prof. Waldemar Geltch of the department of music, and Prof. Hilden Gibson and Prof. Walter Sandelius of the department of political science.
The first lecture was on "Social Currents in Russian Literature," by Professor Ashton, Professor Ashton traced the social developments and the literature of the 19th and 20th centuries, showing how they went hand in hand. The authors whom he particularly discussed were Gogol, Pushkin, Goncharov, Turgenev, Tolstoi, Dostoevski, Gorki, and Cheoelokhov.
Gibson Talks on Economics
Professor Gibson gave the second lecture on "Russian Economics and Politics." He said that the ultimate goal of Russia's economic system is a better, richer life for everyone. He went into the organization of the system, and then spoke of how very successful it has been.

The third in the series was presented by Professor Anderson on "The Russian Language." He traced the history of written and spoken Russian and told of the invention of the Russian alphabet.
Geltch Traces Russian Music
"Russian Music and Musicians" was the topic of Professor Geltch. He traced the development of Russian music through the 19th and 20th centuries. It is still, he said, in comparative adolescence. He told of the work of Glinka, Borodin, Cui, Balakireff, Mussorgsky, and Rimsky-Korsakoff, Tschiaikowsky, and the modern composers. Russian music lives up to Lenin's statement, he said, that "Art belongs to the people."
The final lecture was given by Professor Sandelius on "Russian Foreign Policy." He stated that the foreign policy is hard to find because it is so obvious. After the European war is over, Russia will join us in the Pacific war, in Prof. Sandelius' opinion. The five lectures were presented in

At Miller hall one of the house duties freshmen are responsible for is the unpleasant task of waking Perc Snook for her 8:30 class. They take turns at it because no one wants to do it more than she absolutely has to. Came the day when 'twas Bunny Kline's turn but Bunny happened to have a good excuse and passed it off onto a poor unsuspecting freshman again. The freshman, supposing Perc to be like other human beings, politely poked her in her spare ribs and sweetly said, "Bunny says it's time for you to go to class."

When Marge Benecke, a new Kappa pledge, surveyed the hilltop on which her new home was located, it was hard to tell who was more impressed—Marge or her jallopy. At any rate both members of the party were apparently stalled at the bottom of said Hill when Mariette Bennett spied them from the Theta backyard. "Brunettesome" Bennett scurried over to be of assistance and after looking the situation over for several minutes she suggested that Marge put her foot on that little knob on the floorboard known as
Mail Christmas Gifts Soon If They Go Overseas

The boxes must not exceed five pounds, measure more than 15 inches, nor measure more than 36 inches in length and girth combined. Not more than one parcel may be sent to any one servicemen, nor may any sender dispatch more than a parcel a week to military personnel.

Over at the Delt house there seems to be some question as to who the actives are. If the word "active" has anything to do with activity, however, the pledges feel certain that they're the boys who rate the title. The schedule assigned to them for Friday night was as follows: football game at Haskell 'til mid-night, scrubbing floors at 1:00 a.m., washing windows at 2:00 a.m., painting walls at 3:00 a.m., shining shoes at 4:00 a.m., moving the lawn at 5:00 a.m., cooking breakfast at 6:00 a.m., and falling over dead at 7:00 a.m.
Ed's note: The average life rate of the Delt pledge is not very high.

Guynelle Jones feed in a book somewhere that a college woman should be poised, polished and stuff like that thar! Accordingly, she poised and polished herself before taxing over to Delt Gamma for a rush date. Entering the house like a cool November breeze she was disappointed to note that the Delta Gams could be frigid Brids, too. Confused, she stumbled on a rug and the two went down together, soon becoming so tangled, that no one knew where the rug left off and the gal named Jones began. When she came to, however, Guy fourd herself surrounded by beaming DG's who wished to claim a kindred spirit.
