A Day Early
A two-inch blanket of snow covered the campus this morning in the first real snow of the semester.
Had the snow been delayed one day it could have lent atmosphere to home-going students who will have Thanksgiving and snow and such on the mind anyway.
Nevertheless this is how the campus looked this morning. The time-bearing building, of course, is Blake hall.
Two Councils In Demand-For More Power
Bv JIM SURFACE
"Give us some voice in those afafirs which affect us" was the simultaneous cry of the two organs of student government, the W.S.G.A. and the M.S.C., as they met in separate sessions last night.
The first voice raised against "administration without representation" was that of the W.S.G.A. in their 7 o'clock meeting when the discussion provoked by the administrative change in schedule centered, not on the problem of afternoon or Saturday classes, but rather on the fact of the decline of student government on Mt. Oread.
Feeling that this latest University action was an example of the fast disappearing importance and power of student government, the women legislators resolved to form a committee to consider possibilities of (continued on page eigh)

The message that Paul Moritz is carrying to the colleges of the United States is one of faith. He tells of an interview with Generalissimo Chiang Kai Shek in which the premier of China stated that China was not fighting to win a war but rather to build a nation that might take its place among the great nations of the world.
Of the many things that Americans can give, Mortil says that the Chinese want most of all our friendship and

saw and heard in the Far East. This is the forty-fourth campus that he has visited this fall.
It was Paul Moritz, honor man of 1939, that the students flocked into Hoch Auditorium yesterday morning to see, and it was his message of hope and faith that they carried away.
Moritz returned this summer from China where he traveled as a representative of the Student Christian Movement. The background of his experiences in China gave him the title for his subject, "Education in a Chinese dugout". Since returning to America, he has spent his time telling American student what he

With a cast surpassing any superlatives a movie press agent might concoct to describe it, the alumni all-stars return to Mt. Oread tonight to open the 1940- 41 basketball season for Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen and his varsity squad in a game that should provide a good indication as to just how potent Kansas University will be on the court this year in comparison with past championship seasons.
The descriptions of student life under the trying conditions of war was as real as it was unemotional. The fact that the Chinese students are discouraged from entering the army
When the starting line-ups trot on the floor in Hoch auditorium at 7:45 tonight, it will mean the start of Coach Allen's twenty-fourth year as head basketball coach here at the University. From those 23 seasons, Allen has garnered 16 championships and during the past 10 years no Kansas team has placed

our assurance that we agree with them in their choice of an objective. Chinese students, want to believe that American students indorse their ideals. Yet they find it hard to explain situations such as the one Moritz describes of the demolition of a recreation center in China built by American money with the explosion of a bomb made of American steel.

Football for 1940, so far as Gwinn Henry and his Kansas gridmen are concerned will have its finale in Memorial stadium Thursday afternoon when the Jayhawks engage a highly improved Colorado State eleven. With no chance of improving their cellar position in the Big Six standings, the Crimson and Blue athletes will be shooting for an even break in their four non-conference games this season.
Jayhawks Defeat Drake
The Jayhawks' only victory this year was recorded over Drake early in the season, while they met defeat on eastern soil at the hands of Villanova and George Washington. A triumph in Thursday's Thanksgiving Day game would bring the Kansas non-conference average up to a respectable .500.
Last year, Kansas traveled to Ft. Collins and edged past the Aggues by a score of 7 to 0. Their chances for repeating this conquest were improved yesterday with the announcement that Don Pierce, stal-
