PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS STUDENT BOARD---late and promote extracurricular activities. The Daily Kansan, however, is not only an extracurricular activity. (continued from page one) Although positions on the Daily Kansan are open to all students, almost all reporters and copyreaders are doing that work as required laboratory practice for journalism courses. The newsroom supervisor for the Daily Kansan is hired by the department, and there are numerous other instances in which the department is financially, as well as professionally, interested in the Daily Kansan. Politics Is Big Threat to Free Kansan The Daily Kansan and the department of journalism have grown up together over a period of 40 years. Through the years the two have developed almost inseparably to reach the point where what affects one influences the other. Therefore, it is impossible to term accurately the Daily Kansan as exclusively "extracurricular." In refusing to accept "supervision and regulation," the Daily Kansan reasons that control by a politically-minded group could be as destructive to the ends of freedom of the press as control by any University administration. A "boss" party or clique with no real regard for student rights or the University would threaten the independent stand the Daily Kansan has always taken. This student newspaper must maintain its freedom from control by either student or administrative groups.

Country Club: Mrs. Butcher, retiring Delta Gamma housemother, was beginning to think she had been a distinct failure in enforcing closing hours when a group of pledges came roping down to the farewell party given for her with huge black bags under their eyes. At close range, however, the departing housemother saw the effect of great wickedness had been created with second and third applications of dark mascara—Margaret Wrightsillis contribution to D. G. S. A. P.S. to V-12, Navy Air Corps, ASTP, etc; Sorry fellows, the D. G.'s are getting another housemother to replace her. - * * The bliss of childhood: Pi Phis were somewhat embarrassed Sunday morning when they saw what variety of paper had been laced through their trees and shrubs by unnaturnally happy fraternity men the night before. So delicate was the situation, in fact, no one would volunteer to be seen in the front yard tidying things up. In the end Joan Lemoine, 10-year-old and yet uninhibited sister of Rita, was recruited for the job. Joan, a weekend guest, spent all morning happily rolling up the decorations.

The first man she danced with was an exhibitionist jitterbug and in the very short time they were together, everyone at the party became aware of the diminutive brunette, her partner, and their activities. Thereafter every man who cut Virginia went on the assumption that she was an enthusiastic jitterbug, and whether he was particularly adept along that line or not, made a strenuous effort to please. Virginia managed to get to attend classes Monday, but she spent Sunday in bed Big drawing card—these B-24's! Just as Mowyre started out on the 80-yard run which saved Jawahyehr spirit and prestige Saturday afternoon, one Jay Jane, on her feet with excitement, was accosted from the rear by an ante male voice "Hey, down in front, will ya," it growled.
