Dead Prisoner Makes Us Think (Editor's note: This story from Ruston, La., by the Associated Collegezine Press deals with a problem we believe is of great interest to University students and because of this deserves publication as a Daily Kansan editor!.) Ludwig died the other day as a prisoner of war at Ruston. Death was attributed to pneumonia, resulting despite careful medical attention. This is just a little story about Ludwig Wilhelm. That is not his real name, of course, but it sounds like an "Axis" name and so it will do. The press is requested to refrain from identifying war prisoners or referring to their arrival, movements, etc. But there may be some logic in the thought that when a prisoner of war dies, he is no longer a prisoner of war but a dead man in the custody of his Maker. So . . . It occurred to me that the American Red Cross or some other agency would do a good deed to pass along the word to Ludwig's wife and children that he was given a good burial, the humanitarian, American way. Isn't that constructive publicity for our side, a credit to the United States government? Ludwig was 29 years old. He left a wife and two children in his native land. His interred body was the beginning of a cemetery at the Ruston Prisoner of War Camp. Ludwig was the first of the war prisoners' to die at Camp Ruston. His body was cared for by a local civilian embalmer, dressed in a German uniform, placed in a casket. Ludwig, when captured somewhere, was fighting for a principle we Americans utterly despise. This is our second bitter experience with Ludwig's people and obviously we hold no brief for him or his type. Yet, somehow, one cannot help wondering what kind of a man this Ludwig might have been if Fate had not had him born in a country dominated by maniacal leaders. I would like to believe that Ludwig Wilhelm, at heart, might not have been such a bad sort of fellow. I would like to think of him as a happy father, with two children and an admiring wife, back home in a peaceful country. I picture Ludwig and his family thus because I know of their counterpart in America, in Louisiana, even on the street where I live. The death of this German soldier brings the tragedy of war to our own doorstep. After all, Ludwig was some mother's son, a husband, and father. If he may typify the fighting youth of the world, then war indeed is all that Sherman said it was.—B.K. Rock Chalk Talk By MARY MORRILL Honors for most peculiar of all hill organizations go this fall to the "Yagum" society. (Yes, the navy received due consideration). Yagum originated last year in the irrational mind of Carol Stuart, D.G. Upon dreaming it up, Carol held election of officers, put herself in as president, and began initiating people wholesale. The organization now boasts 1133 dazed members and is international in scope. To become a member one must sit cross-legged in some public spot—preferably in the middle of Massachusetts at Ninth and mutter strange things about Yagum. Initiate's only responsibility is a throaty V-Yagum shouted at any other initiate upon sighting same. Last year it was just Yagum. The V has been added to push the war effort. Dorothy Davis, Pi Phi pledge from Miami, Oklahoma, will probably never forget her embarrassment when she was called on at Monday night dinner and became so flustered she could not remember the name of a single active present. *** *** The most original threesees on the hill without doubt is composed of Emanuel Blando (Bosco), Bob McKinley (Matt), and Gene Brown (Gish). The three reside in the TKE house, but they aren't TKEs. They quit men's rush week after being one smoker and joined the ISA. At Trojan PKP's Elect 67 Prof. Max Swarthout, director of the School of Music at Southern California University and brother of Dean D. M. Swarthout, has announced 67 new members of Phi Kappa Phi on the Trojan campus. The FI Phis, it is rumored may pass a rule soon prohibiting men from calling in about the time people are getting ready to go places. One girl whipped out of the shower recently to talk to her s.p. and the pool of water which accumulated in the phone booth during a half hour conversation almost proved disastrous to the plaster. (Editor's Note—What is she—a geyser?) The little group decides everything by 2/3 vote, an arrangement which always works our poorly for Matt. Says Matt sorrowfully, "that's why they call me Matt—I get walked all over." The Alpha Chis are at present divided among themselves on a matter of rather grave importance—what shall they do with their latest mascot? The mascot is an aged, mangy, but compatible dog that arrived at their house unheralded this fall. He (it is hoped it is he) eats more than three girls, scares company and has fleas. However, he has soulful eyes, understands remarkably about living in houses—and many girls hate to put him (more wishful thinking) out.
