Back in the days of Kansas history when women wore sunbombs and their husbands' most conspicuous implement was a well-loaded shotgun, a trip from Kansas City to Lawrence was a business venture not a pleasure trip.
In those days of wagon trains and pack-horses, travelers little thought that on the weekend of Nov. 18, 1939 about 75 pleasure-seekers from the state would come to Lawrence for an overnight trip to one of the Union
sity's 29 sorority and fraternity houses. But such is the trend of events.
Weekend guests at Dyke hall included: Helen Van Dyke, Kansas City; Marjorie Trautwein, Topeka Annamary Collett and Gladys Ferguson, Wellington; Mary Jane Siger, gr, Kansas City; and Mr. and Mrs. Frank Druck, Oxford.
Guests at the Pi Kappa Alpha house this past week were Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Walker, Herington; Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Shafer, Joopin; Moe. Mrs. Sylvia Glauer, St. Joseph; Moe. Mrs. J. C. Freeman, St. Joseph; Moe. Mrs Frances Martin, Washington; Dr. Moe. C. W. Walker, Moe. Mrs. M. Lindsay, Los Angeles; Callt. Mr. C. W. McDowell, Kansas City; Moe. Charles R. Kalus, Kansas City; Mo. and R. G. Bower, gr.

Sunday I received an angry communication from the reporter who was assigned to cover the symphony concert. The letter answered, to the reporter's satisfaction, that he was covering the word "delicate" in describing Brahm's symphony . . . "For your information I wish to refer you to pages 295 of the fifth edition of Webster's Collegiate Dictionary. On that page, under the letter 'D' you will find the word 'delicate' defined. "Delicate" it says, means, "pleasing the senses; finally made fragrant; early on," and means "not to cover Brahm's delicate symphony, I'm your grandmother. Since I have enough relatives, I'd much rather Brahm's symphony proved to be 'delicate.'"

One excuse Dean Nelson had to accept- Seward Fleison was called into the College office to account for not having his freshman card pummed at the induction services. Fleison's excuse: he was the freshman receiving the torch in the induction services.
The woes of Bruce Varan—"the dashing Delt of basketball fame has had to turn down one Theta and two Pi Phi party bids because of conflicting dates on the court.
Man-trap, they sell it. They should know for no less than two of Beta's most eligible baucheries have placed them in the Guam Gamla's in the past week.
Somewhat new in corages—John Ewers sent Rene Klinkadon a corage made completely out of rocks for the Canna Phi party last week. He sank more "rocks" in the orchids that followed, however.
(next to what will do with the Kansan)—Who will receive Betty Bell's bid for the Kappa party? Two guesses: Kappa Sig Larry Hambley or Sig Alph Billy Oliver.
Weak's biggest Campus Problem
Fun my word, Roderick (he writes Off-the-Beat) your puns are too punny for words. I am fortunately able "to confirm the rumors" that you do not write On the Shin. You need an air to be guilty of that errure.
Look, books, if I promise not to mention the Gamma Pii showers again, will you please stop sending me inculding notes? Honestly, I didn't know the Sour Owl had already mentioned the amine things. I'm getting so I can't enjoy a shower myself.

THE EYE...
... AND EAR $ ^{\star} $
OF THE CAMPUS
THE daily newspaper of University City is the eye and ear of the campus. We mean this almost literally. The trained staff of student reporters have their ears to the ground for every possible news bit to enlarge your interest in living in University city. They translate what they hear into pages of type and you say, "I hear that John Doe broke his collar bone in football practice." You read it in the Kansan...the ear of the campus. The merchant receives a shipment of winter pajamas...just the kind to keep a freezing student warm, at least from the neck to the ankles where the special knitting ends...but the students don't know anything about it. So what does the merchant do? He runs a cut (a drawing or photograph) of the desired pajamas together with a glowing description, in the advertising columns. "I see where Blank's are showing some p.j.'s guaranteed to keep a guy above zero. Let's go down and get some," says the reader. The advertising columns of the student newspaper are his eye. If you are a student take care of your eyes and your ears. If you are a news source call up a Kansan reporter. If you are a merchant train the student eye on your wares. It pays.
