Kansan Comment
Is Dyche a Museum Or a Memorial
Another generation of freshmen is wondering what that red-roofed building across from Thayer museum might contain. Since 1932, freshmen have been wondering about Dyche museum, and if the present lack of progress continues, several more generations of college students may graduate without ever glimpsing the interior of one of the largest buildings on the campus.
Building appropriations for campus improvements are not so plentiful that money can be annually sunk in what appears to be the campus white elephant. Insufficient funds is the reason for the nine-year closed-door policy at Dyche, and yet last January C. G. Bayles reported that $48,000 had been spent on Dyche and $25,000 more were needed to finish construction work.
Condemned in November, 1932, Dyche has been simply standing on the campus since then, useless and expensive. The museum's exhibits once valued at approximately $500,000 have deteriorated, although placed in the best storage available: cubby holes, closets, and under the stadium. Recent P.W.A. refusal to grant further funds has put a damper on the building program.
The University needs those wasted class rooms, and the community would benefit from the reopening of a museum of natural history which formerly attracted Sunday crowds. Indifference and inefficiency don't answer the problem.
Will Dyche museum ever reopen? If not, why not race the building and use the stones for the hoped-for men's dormitory?
Sigmund Freud,
Exiled Psychologist
Every student recognizes the tremendous debt that is owed to those scholars who first blaze the trail of scientific research in a new field. Such a man was Sigmund Freud, Jew, who died Saturday night in London where he had fled from anti-Semitic persecution in Vienna.
Freud is famous as the founder of modern psychoanalysis. The literature of psychology is filled with the contributions of Freud, who laid the foundation for most of the present day work in psychopathology. He devised the technique of psychoanalysis for the study and cure of mental ills, and was known for his treatment of hysteria and his theory of dreams.
As with many pioneers, the Austrian psychologist often was misinterpreted and misunderstood. Evidence of his greatness as a scholar was his willingness to revise his studies in the light of further experience. He was an authority on his subject before the World War but did not hesitate to modify his theories and to start his painstaking work again in the light of knowledge acquired since he pioneered in the field.
Europe and the world have lost a giant intellect whose legacy to mankind may someday be recognized as far outweighing the achievements of those who drove him from his work to die in a foreign land.
Rumanian Heritage Typically Balkan
Mirroring the type of social heritage handed Balkan youth, nine young Rumanians assassinated their premier last week. Weakness within in the nations of Central Europe as well as without has stifled national patriotism as it is known in the United States. Central Europe stands a stagnant pool of uneducated masses without sufficient leadership.
Primary cause of divided allegiance is the ever changing boundary program. A dearth of firm and intelligent leaders has made for disunity among the respective peoples. In Rumania, King Carol exemplifies the leader who has assumed his responsibilities too late. For many years he ranked as foremost playboy of Europe's blue bloods. Recently, with his country in danger, he became an excellent leader. Carol, however, arose too late to popularize himself with the Iron Guards, pro-Nazi Rumanians. Had he been wise, he would have strengthened Rumanian loyalty months ago in one of two ways: either by gaining the sympathy of the youths or by ousting the faction while yet weak.
Rumania's heritage remains at fault in a second way. Too few of her people get an education. If her students, presumably among the country's intelligent class, can be led by German agents to kill the premier, what must the peasants be like? The answer is that when a shrewd outer force plays upon their unschooled emotions, they kill first and think afterwards.
Until Rumania unites herself within, she can never withstand propagandizing or force.
Vote on Neutrality
All University students should be vitally concerned with the present Congressional discussion of Neutrality. To find out the opinion of college students, the University Daily Kansan is printing a ballot in this issue to allow you to vote upon the possible changes in the neutrality act.
We ask you to mark X in the propositions you favor, sign your name, and deposit the ballot in one of the Kansas boxes. This public opinion poll will be forwarded to Congress to exert at least a small influence on neutrality legislation next week.
An alive and enlightened public opinion is necessary in a democracy.
Campus Opinion
Alumnus Comments
Congratulations to the K.U. Faculty for the fine program that introduced the new Chancellor to the air waves and to the student body. Fred Hardie made his contribution to the Chancellor did his duty very well and with great eloquence.
But where in the world did you find such a band?
Any director that would place such a band before the student body on a broadcast should have an appointment to have his head examined at the very fine K. The school does not sea o'c that former students and alumni do later to their programs with hopeful interest.
Great music has a place in everyone's heart, but then such a mess is made and to our real wonder and amazement such a noise is called music! Let's have an investigation and see if a grade school band was not auditory enough. Let's play the band next night and see if they might now sound better to the ears of the listeners. That last one almost blew tubes out of the radio! The Crismon and Blue was a louty something or other the way that it was played.
BILL MILLER, Former Student, Topeka, Kan
Editor's Note: Like every other Hill organization the Band is composed of students, and those students have just returned from vacations. Rehearsals naturally have not begun, and many of last year's alumni still must complete their degree has been a faithful part of practically every Hill activity responding to every call. Russell L. Wiley, director, has produced many outstanding bands. Last year the students of the University sent their best work to DDA for publication. We are proud of our band, and know that after intensive practice it will be up to its usual standard.

Library 'Mystery Room' Is Worth Weight in Gold
Bv. Eldon Corkill. c'40
Watson library doesn't go in for collecting rare editions of books. Money spent for books must go a long way, and expensive "first editions" are often available on a little room on a level with the main floor of the building that is always locked.
Inside the room of that door are few rare books—that is books that sell on the market for high prices. But most of the material in that room could not be replaced for any amount if it were misdirec. If you use a book from this room, you are requested to place your name, address, and telephone number on the card, and under no circumstances take the book out of the building.
Early Jayhawkers Preserved
Material kept in the "vault" as librarians call the room, consists of a few rare editions of Shakespeare and other well-known authors; clippings concerning former great personalities and officials on the Hill; complete histories of the University; documents dealing with early events on the Hill, and many volumes dealing with legislative procedure of the state of Kansas. Besides that, there are the early copies of all Hill publications, including the University and all the other early University annuals. A complete file of the University Daily Kansan, the Graduate Magazine, Jayhawker and even the Sour Owl is kept.
Almost every book written by a Kansan, or about a Kansan is kept locked up in the room. That is why, when you asked if you could check out a copy of Hertler's "Horse and Buggy Doctor" or William Allen White's "The Puritan Woman," you were informed that the only copies to be used already checked out had to be used in the building.
Copies of all doctors theses, works of Kate Stephens, the life of Buffalo Bill Cody, numerous tales about John Brown, and books on the histories of various counties and communities of Kansas are all filled with stories concerning University alumni, athletes, faculty members and students are kept up to date and added to the hundreds of Kansas books already assembled. There are volumes of material on Quentin's rill, raid, early history of Kansas, and even a volume of clippings concerning the dust storms of the western part of the state. One large book is filled with the feats of the "Kansas Fleer." Dr. Glenn Cunningham.
Dust Storm Clippings Kept
Charles Lueck, 38, an employee of the Independent Petroleum Association of America, died, accidentally, in his Tulua apartment Saturday night from gunshot wounds. According to reports Lueck was taking the gun from a shelf when the trigger caught causing it to go off. The body was sent to Lueck's former home in Netakaw.
While on the University campus, Lucew was active in hill politics, the pan-helenic council and was a member of the Karpa Sigma fraternity.
