Debaters Drop Contest To Texas
The University debate team lost to Texas by a unanimous decision of the three judges last night in Fraser theater.
Irving Kuraner, c'40, and Mac Wynne, c'40, defended the negative of the Isolation question for the University while Texas was represented by Julius Goldberg and Gilford Jones, on the affirmative. Judges for the only three judged debates on the campus this year were: Milton Beach, Douglas county attorney; Charles Springer, Lawrence attorney; and Walter Russell, instructor in speech in Lawrence Memorial High School.
Goldberg of Texas opened the constructive arguments by stressing that the United States had to choose one of three ways: war, economic aid to one set of belligerents, or strict isolation. The affirmative contended that it is better to lose trade than to go to war.
For the negative Kuraner contended that the Allies don't want our goods, they don't need them, and they couldn't pay for them if they did. The obvious results Kuraner told the affirmative is that trade won't bring us into war.
Constructive arguments for the affirmative were concluded by Gilford Jones of Texas with the argument that strict isolation would allow for peaceful program for solving domestic problems.
Mac Wynne closed the negative arguments by reminding the affirmative of the economic upset and maladjustment at home resulting from a policy of strict isolation. Wynne defended the cash and carry policy by saying that 90 per cent of the American people favor it, and that it results in sound economic trade.
The debate was concluded by Gilford Jones of Texas as he quoted Senator Borah, "Where goes the American dollar, there goes the American flag and there goes American youth."
John Lintner, instructor in economics, was chairman of the debate.

These Kids-- Texas Textbooks Enjoy A Very Short Life
Used textbooks in Texas usually wind up their careers as educators down by the railroad tracks in a place called the State Textbook depository, in Austin, according to the Daily Texas.
Those who paw over this dust-laden infirmary have found many interesting marks and articles, which are a psychology in themselves. Since the books represent use by children of nearly all ages, an accurate hieroglyphic account is exposed on the covers and pages. These extracurricular activities often dominate the educational func-
Letters, notes, and drawings are common, the clearing house employees tell us. Boys, especially, make disrespectful comments about the teachers and discuss juvenile work recently accomplished freely.
"Love, oh lovely love" seems to be the most outstanding hobby of the girls during school hours—that and making smart little wiscracks about their girl classmates. The girls have als) left valentines as bookmarks. Love letters and valentines—valentines and love letters—what a life for the clearing-house boys.
Both silver and bills are tucked within the pages of these discarded books. It is rumored that a porter found three one dollar bills in a book in the basement of the depository.
'Time' Offers New Series
For the school year 1937-38, I-
257,781 books were received by the
depository, of which only 145,427
were usable again the following
year.
A happy Time will be had by all Stories ended like that, way back in 1939 A.D. and before.
Yet this story begins thusly for legitimate reason. Something like Time newsmagazine's streamlanguage could have initiated the change. But it didn't. Something else Time is inaugurating accomplished the reform.
Beginning in this issue of hte DAILY KANSAN, Time Incorporated, is running a series of fullpage ads to run every other week on the back page. Running also in leading metropolitan dailies, the series is designed to give a clearer picture of the world of news-gathering, news-writing, and news-reading.
Jefferson once declared that if he were offered the choice between democracy without newspapers and newspapers without democracy he would take the latter. Believing this is an accurate expression of the importance of journalism, and that the
scope of the profession is taken too much for granted, today. Time newsmagazine through its advertisements is attempting to enlighten the nation's readers on the value of the newspaper and newsmagazine to an abundant life.
Faculty members and students who wish a bound copy of all the Time advertisements to appear in the Kansan may procure one by calling KU 66 or dropping in at the Kansan office. Reservations must be in early in order that the demand may be covered adequately.
Catholic University of America has organized the nation's first religious round table for law students and lawyers.

42 Women Cast Ballots At 'Y' Polls This Morning
Activity Fee---for EFFECTIVENESS
(Continued from page one) State students to raise their fee to around $25 a year.
BEAT THE SOONERS !!
While Harris would not state whether the desired increase at Kansas State was to erect a union building there, other reliable sources hinted as much today.
Since the athletic and publication fee already is a compulsory part of the activity stipend at State, any increase there would be taken to mean that a union building is a probability.
Definite action on the matter probably will be taken by the Board in a week or so, Harris intimated.
Forty-two voters had fulfilled their obligations at the Y.W.C.A. polls in the basement of Frank Strong hall by noon today.
