Another TB Case
With the finding of another case of active tuberculosis in a fraternity house food handler this week, the urgency of tuberculin tests for all food handlers received additional emphasis. In this case the food handler was, to outward appearances, free of infection, but x-ray and laboratory tests proved the existence of active tuberculosis. Members of the fraternity will be checked by the student health service to ascertain whether the infection has spread to others.
Thus far, due to the efforts of the student health service and the Pan-Hellenic council's action in requiring the testing of fraternity and sorority food handlers, nineteen Greek letter organizations have completed the examination of all food handlers in their employ. These include the following organizations:
Acacia
Alpha Chi Omega
Alpha Delta Pi
Beta Theta Pi
Chi Omega
Delta Chi
Delta Tau Delta
Delta Upsilon
Gamma Phi Beta
Kappa Alpha Theta
Kappa Sigma
Phi Delta Theta
Phi Kappa Psi
Pi Kappa Alpha
Sigma Alpha Epsilon
Sigma Chi
Sigma Kappa
Sigma Nu
Sigma Phi Epsilon
More surprising, perhaps, is the response of other organizations outside the jurisdiction of the Pan-Hellenic councils. Dr. R. I. Canutes, director of the health service, offered the facilities of the service without charge to any organization wishing to cooperate in the tuberculin testing program, and twenty-one have requested the examinations. Testing of employees in Corbin hall and the Memorial Union building, two of the first to volunteer, has been completed. Others cooperating in the plan is the Triangle fraternity and the following boarding houses and restaurants:
Dunakin club
Dunarkin choi
Mrs. Blanche Yeaton, 1620 Tennessee
Mrs. Ida Feier, 845 Missouri
Mrs. Verma, Sharer, 1218 Mississippi
Mrs. Letty K. Cutler, 1215 Oread
Mrs. Mae Edmonston, 1241 Louisiana
Mrs. Beulah Overton, 1940 Indiana
Mrs. O. M. Bruchmiller, 1145 Indiana
Mrs. Faye Perrin, 1247 Ohio
Mrs. A. M. Caulk, 1420 Ohio
Mrs. George Jones, 1041 Tennessee
Bondeson club, 1241 Tennessee
Mrs. N.C. Fries, 1400 Tennessee
Mrs. Osa Custer, 1247 Kentucky
Mrs. Charles B. Vickers, 1325 West Campus
Mrs. T. V. Rowe, 200 West Twelfth Hal's cafe
It has been suggested that cards, similar to those of approved men's and women's rooming houses, be given to organizations volunteering for the examinations at the completion of examinations of food handlers in their employ, with the stipulation that the house, club, or restaurant agree to require the testing of any new worker not previously examined. Such a move undoubtedly would serve as a stimulus for other organizations to cooperate in the health measure.

Editor, Daily Kansas
I should like to propose the Gamma Phi Beta house as being one of the nicest on the Hill since in my mind it contains within its portals the ideal type of sorority girl. Now should any of my other friends recognize the author, I mean, then, no discourtesy; nor do I imply that they are the less worthy because they do not accord with this type. More than one desirable
combination of virtues exists, and in fact this ideal type I describe would hardly be the one for me.
Looking at this girl from the point of an independent with little money and fewer charms, I would say that to the strong belong the fair and she is certainly no exception. For an individual of my stamp, she is only to be looked at and dreamed about. However it is she that gives the fraternities their best selling point when they are inducing a man to pledge. If they can boast that the prospective pledge will be enabled to meet her if he joins the Eta Bita Pie, he is surely sold.
her if he joins the Ella Bateman. She is a powerful antidote to the painted, stuck-up, high-hatter that looks down her nose at all but a few select Greeks and insists in being driven in the latest model. Though you could hardly do her justice in any printed description, you could say that she is truly a gorgeous person overflowing with fun and possessed with one of those rare types of real natural beauty.

An Artistic Appraisal Editor, Daily Kansan:
Editor, Daily Kansan:
If the Hill's appraiser could succeed in pushing Hemingway, Lewis, Petty, and Thurber, together with all other acknowledged brush-wielders in the Spooner-Thayer collection where man knows they may never be seen again, he could then finger-crossedly say that recent and attraction-attracting, if not attractive works on the Campus are art-pure and simple.
on the Campus First on the list of Hill history-makers is the present painting on the Anatomy building. The result, if not beautiful, has at least one of the points of some kinds of art—clean work. This initial progress is permeated with the atmosphere of Michelangelo—if not his genius.
Spasmodically harmonious is the result of the side by side hanging of above chef-d'oeuvre with the "Sculpture of a Lawn" just beneath. The grass has been clay in the weed digger's hands. Starting like a true sculptor with too much, he has brought it down to that just-enough stage—for the present at least.
All in all, the University outdoor museum has qualities to be commended-for its unusual attacks, if nothing else.

Study in Optimism--- Horses To See City; Riders Hope They Can
By Benny Lemons
It may be that I was too deeply impressed by the simple life Jugs of wine and thou, and things of that nature.
But for some reason I can't exactly feel athletic over some 2 local horsemen who are donning red shirts and riding clothes for a canter over to the city.
Per se, this is ridiculous. I'd be willing to wager that very few of the Places in Kansas City would condone the presence of a horse at the bar. Or even on the dance floor. I should think the animal would feel rather conspicuous anyway.
Besides, these riders will feel sorry if, on the trail they frighten somebody's great grandfather into thinking they are a squadron of the King's Red Coats which somehow got left in the Colonies. Who knows, the old gent might drag out his muske I've heard that those things have a terrific recoil. At his age doubt if he could survive.
All of which brings up something else. The Revolutionary War proved that red coats provided an excellent target. That alone should be enough of a warning to the Tories of Lawrence Some day when one of those horsemen is peering down his nos (and his horse's) at some commoner, what's to keep any patriot, red-blooded American from defending his country's tradition?
But to look deeper into the matter: The horse is of the gen "Equus" and of the family "Equidae," which I am told, includ asses and zebras. I have never seen a zebra, so on that score must admit I am not well versed.
I have seen a horse, however, and didn't find him particular intriguing.
And I have conversed with others of the genus.
That is. I have been trapped in a horseman's conversation. have never taken part in it.
Just the other day I was walking down with my, friend George, who is one of Their number. A man on crutches hailed him from across the street.
"Who did you have today, George?"
I was immediately interested, because if someone would ask me such a question I wouldn't know just how to answer. Bu George did.
"Oh, they saddled up Princess for me," George replied. "Sh was in a rather testy mood today."
I seized George by the arm and tried to walk along but it w hopeless. They launched into a lengthy discussion, which, think must have been about horses.
I gathered that the man on crutches was on crutches because he also found a horse in a testy mood. Some horse named Lad.
Then there was talk about gaits, about western and stic saddles, about stirrups, and numerous other terms which no mon Kansan can understand.
I wondered if my companions would mind if I just walk away. I tried it, and neither noticed. Obviously the cast is above the average run of just good old, class-cutting students.
They dress differently, they act differently, they talk differenlly—all because they have the distinction of associatin with horses.
One of those persons hangs around our building all the time in a pair of boots with big heels. It took me some weeks to go used to his 65 degree forward lean.
No, there's no future in this horse business. I am of the belief that the horse is on the way out. Even if the Hunt Club one of the most stable institutions on the Hill.
