Kansan Comment
More Grand-Stand Cooperation
The fighting Jayhawkers beat Iowa State. The crowd in the grand-stand blew hot, blew cold, and had to be begged into cooperating on the sign stunts between the halves. The cheer leaders work hard to figure out the various card displays—the least we can do is make a success of the thing.
Support for the teams is not just a matter of screaming your voice away after each touch-down. It is a fan's duty before, during, and after the game to be a good sport.
Mr. Malott,
Mr. White
The University has a new chancellor, and he is young in spirit as well as in years. We are proud of our chancellor, but interested in William Allen White's comment as interpreted by the New York Times:
"The eleven of the University of Kansas, famous on the field for a 'yell' that would have made the Apaches skedaddle, is thought to be a little slow this year. While Mr. White usually roots for Manhattan, he affects an especial interest in K.U. this Fall.
Jump out of the chancellor's box, boy, throw off your coat, put on a sweater, hop in and bust your way through. If nothing else will save the game, grab a ball or a game, young feller! Show 'em you've got what it takes! Up and at cm, and let academic tradition be a dignified dignity go hang. Hit the line! Hit the line."
"At the head of the university is a young chancellor in his first year of office. If his university loses the silver cup the graduates will 'hiss passionately and point an accusing finger at the new chancellor.' Therefore Mr. White points a fire-tipped pen at him and tells him what to do if he 'sees the goose eggs hatching in the game with the University of Nebraska or of Oklahoma:
The traditional high-hats worn by the boys at Eton have been discarded as a hindrance in the use of gas-masks. One worries immediately about the guards at Buckingham with their extra-high sakos.
The Business Of War
Among the numerous other myths still clouding the thinking of Americans, is the Waris-good-for-business fantasy. Some misguided interpreters accuse business of a leading part in drawing us into the last war and are alert for signs of legislative sabotage on the part of industrial leaders in the present 'limited emergency.'
War has drastic effects on the normal process of business. There were more business failures in the United States in the period from 1914 to 1918 than in any similar period of national business history. Not even during the depression years did so many failures occur in a corresponding number of years.
Abroad we see the almost complete commandeering of industry and finance by government, with regimentation of every phase of national life. Extension of government control over business is inevitable in time of war.
The American Chamber of Commerce and many other leading business groups have come out in strong opposition to entanglement in the European 'peaceful war' or 'warlike peace.' So long as public opinion is steadily negative to any martial suggestion America will remain neutral.
War is an economic waste in that non- constructive industries are the ones chiefly stimulated, with a resulting destruction of raw materials with nothing to show for the effort when the war is over.
"In the United States," says Gertrude Stein, there is more space where nobody is than where any body is. This is what makes America what it is."
Poland's Tragic History
No matter how this particular chapter closes, in Poland's tragic history it is but one episode in a long continued series of ravages endured by this state.
Three hundred years ago, war came to Poland and carved out East Prussia, creating the Polish corridor. Two hundred years ago, war swept Poland in the rise of Frederick the Great of Prussia.
One generation later, war in Poland brought the first partition in 1772 and the corridor, excepting Danzig, became West Prussia. Only twenty years elapsed before the next war in 1793 gave west Poland to Prussia and east Poland to Russia in the second partition. In 1795
the third partition gave Warsaw to German Prussia and south Poland to Austria with a major share to Russia.
Poland was the site of battle only a decade later when war with Napoleon occupied Europe. England fought France on the sea and supplied gold for Prussia to fight France on the land. Armies trumped over Poland.
By 1812 Napoleon had made a buffer state of Warsaw but three years later, German princes took eastern Poland and the Tsar of Russia proclaimed himself as king of Poland.
By 1830 another crop of boys had grown up and civil war came when Warsaw revolted and threw out the Russians. A year later the Tsar returned, crushed the revolt, and made Poland part of the Russian Empire. A revolt in 1863 ended disastrously for the Poles with their language banished from the schools.
The World War made Poland first the battleground on the eastern front and finally the buffer state when peace was written at Versailles. Poland fought until 1923, taking considerable territory from Russia. Russia now has invaded and recaptured that territory in the twelfth major conflict that has swept over Poland in 200 years. Twelve war in 200 years means a new war for every generation for 12 generations.
Today's chapter is but an episode for Poland.

Kansas Muralist Portrays History On Capitol Walls
The walls of the statehouse in Topeka are being redecorated, and in a novel way. John Steurt Curry, famous Kansas painter and muralist, is portraying the history of the state, by way of murals, on the rotunda walls of the capitol building.
Curry's latest work will portray the history of Kansas from the pioneering days of John Brown to the present time. The dominant theme of the murals is the struggle of man against nature—the battle of the agricultural population against drought, depression, and disease.
Artist Curry never attended school here, but a brother, Paul W. Curry, deceased, was graduated in art from Princeton University, in '27, and Milded Curry in
John Stewart Curry was born "two cornfields and a meadow" cast of Dumavant, in 1897. His father attended the University one year along with William Allen White and Colonel Funston, but gave up academic education to make his living as a farmer.
ON THE OFF B-E-A-T
There are imaginations and imaginations, but by no stretch of ours we can call that towel one freshman was wearing a nightshirt.
By Roderick Burton
One delegate to the high school journalism convention wore his Quill and Scrott on one lapel and Junior G-Man badge on the other. He didn't explain but probably he had found that it was much more useful than a mere press card.
Our stately pride is hurt. We have just discovered that there are more students at the University from Pennsylvania than Texas.
All the moves for peace in Europe are a lot of useless motion without a second to open the proposals for dislassion.
Scepticism, if not philosophy, was reflected at times. To a colleague who reported that "Time files" one responds, they asked: "How fast does it go?"
There's many a bark between sub. and shark.

32. In high school, John, as his friends called him, was outstanding in track and football. He attended art schools in Kansas City and Chicago and was contemplating a career as an illustrator when was declared. America joined the Allies and Curry joined the army. Sent to a training camp, he was quickly released when it was discovered he was too young for service.
Thwarted in his desire to serve his country, Curry entered Geneva College, Beaver Falls Pa., as a special student in art and football. His grades in the art courses were above reproach and he won more than local fame as halfback on the football队.
Although he studied in Paris and New York and lived in Connecticut for a while, Curry's greatest paintings are scenes of his native state. Probably his best known painting, "The Tornado," is a scene showing a tornado which passed close to his home in Jefferson county, May 1, 1920. His depiction of the tornado was the first prize and $1,000 at the Carnegie International Exhibition at Pittsburgh in 1932.
Curry holds the position of "artist in residence" at the University of Wisconsin and is represented by paintings in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum, the University of Nebraska. Phillips Andover Academy, the Whitney Museum of Modern Art, the Addison Gallery, and by the Westport Junior High School frescoes.
Blow Over Cyclone-
(Continued from page one)
Codwalder burped a pass to Fry on the first play and in four cracks at the sturdy Cyclone line Mili Sulliant picked up the remaining eight yards to the double chalks Chester Gibbens was rushed in to extra point and his drop-kick sales far and true over the goal posts.
His first flip was incomplete and on the next play Kansas was penalized 15 yards for offensive interference. This put a temporary damper on the scoring threat, but it was revived two plays later when John Narramos pounced on an Iowa receiver in the 22-yard Stulls Cracks Oversee.
Iowa State elected to kickoff and after an exchange of punts the stage was set for Fry's touchdown jant. On short punt formation he took the ball to the left, whizzed by the Cyclone wingman and raced on to the end zone as downfield blockers knocked over the Iowa backfield. EO Hall booled over the extra point from placement to make it 14 to 1. Kansas right back and was once more storming the north goal line. Don Pierce intercepted one of Wallace's passes on the 27 and took it down to the 23. Bukaty, Hall and Sullivant took unmasking the Cyclone forward wall and had the ball on the 2-yard line with four downs to score when a holding penalty put a stop to the drive.
