Kansan Comment
Reno, Take Care!
Here Comes Kansas
If the state legislature and Governor Ratner approve the proposed one-day divorce law, Kansas may well become an important stopover for romantic world's fair visitors this summer. The procedure may possibly be something like this.
Johnnie Jones, a resident of Montana, decides to take in both fairs. He goes to San Francisco where he spends a week. The last night at the Golden Gate exposition, he meets a blond charmer named Sadie. Falling in love with her at first sight, he is married and immediately they take a train for the East.
On the train, Johnnie gets a second sight and falls out of love. So, the newweds get off the train at Burr Oak, Kan., where they consult Attorney G. Hullinger Pfuca, Mr. Pfuca, being an astute barrister and an honest one, agrees to get things settled right away. Free from the nasty marital bonds, Johnnie and his former wife board the train the next day and ride on to New York in separate berths.
Through the goodness of a far-sighted Kansas legislature, Johnnie arrives in New York, and sees the fair with Susie, whom he has met on the train, with a clear conscience.
Of course there might be one hitch. Lawyer Plufca didn't "handle this thing right." For the legislator who proposed the divorce scheme hinted the legal profession could "make a fortune" if they could contrive not to try the case in a hurry.
The senator, speaking in support of his proposal, reasoned: "Couples don't have to establish residence to get married in Kansas. Why should they be compelled to establish a residence of a year to get unmarried?"
Having attacked the subject in a similar frame of mind, we would answer:
For the same reason that although you don't have to establish a residence not to vote, you are compelled to establish a residence to vote.
Faculty Compiles Guide to Books
Many plans for a well rounded education have been suggested by educators and students all over the world. One of the most well-known is that offered by Will Durant in his book, "Adventures in Genius," and which many are familiar with. Many students, however, do not know of another list prepared especially for students here at the University.
The booklet, "A General Reading List," published several years ago by the department of English is the result of many spirited battles of the books. To quote from the preface, "Neither caprice nor tradition governed our choices; but, though private enthusiasm influenced us somewhat, we could not ignore those great authors who ever challenge us all to climb to their own level of thinking and feeling."
The list was not a hurriedly-got-together affair, but the result of much research and many conferences. In 1925, Prof. W. S. Johnson, chairman of the department, appointed a committee to compile a reading-list. Remembering the peculiar needs of University students, the committee omitted many classics studied in the high school. In departments like science and history, reliability as well as style and intrinsic interest was considered. The result was a list of more than 550 titles, ambiarly divided into fourteen different sections.
Students desiring to read of the best in the world of books will find this general reading list a good guide to those "realms of gold" of which a young man who had stayed up one night to读 an exciting book once wrote.
"Speaking of trees," says the Clay Center Dispatch, "we are reminded of that poem of Joyce Kilmer's." The Dispatch doesn't know how lucky it is. We are reminded of the darn thing every time we turn on the radio.
Whoops! Tarzan Bites the Dust
The West is safe for men, women, and children again. Earl Durand, modern counterpart of Jesse James and Tarzan, is no more. For nine days Durand terrorized the hills of old Wyoming. Then yesterday, just after his fifth victim had bit the dust, the outlaw was wounded and then finished the job by shooting himself.
During his nine-day reign, Durand accomplished acts of bravado that put him in a class with Edgar Rice Burroughs' perennial chest-bearing hero. He ate raw meat (evidently believing those toothpaste ads about the Eskimos' wonderful teeth), and carried deer and elk skut on his shoulders as we would a tennis racquet.
While Hitler was doing all right over in Germany, and European statesmen were plain scared, Wyoming was having its worries, too.
A 200-man pose was sent out by two states to track down the desperado, and Adolf had to share front page headlines with a hillbilly.
Campus Opinion
I wonder if something can't be done about the tremendous number of silk hats that are raided every day.
Editor, Daily Kansan:
Of course, the problem could be solved by having the girls stand up in every class, but then it would be hard for the other members of the class to see the teacher.
The girls on this Campus are tired of snagging and tearing their hose every time they sit down in a class room chair. We with that co instructor would take the students' shoes and chairs in his classroom are free of protruding mats.
Editor. Dailv Kansan:
COED
Well, sister (?) you started it but I hope I don't finish it. After all I'm hardly the one to defend the non-sorority girls. But when you say that you are presenting the "true facts" concerning the "angle of college finance" of sorority and non-sorority girls you only presented one side and that made-bounty.
Assuming your fact is correct that sorority girls pay $ to $6 a month for room and board and house expense pay anywhere near that amount for similar necessities. Here are some figures secured from girls representing sorority girls in the college. For a month for room and board plan what they spend for lunches which never exceeds a couple of dollars make hall girls pay $2 a month for room and $2 to $12 for board but do their own cooking, and Corbin hall girls pay $3 a month for room and $3 to $18 for board.
A survey two years ago of the girls on NYA showed that the average room rent paid was $7.75 and for the young women eating out the average board was $18.02 per student and for those who did their own cooking but were not exceptions but average amounts. A similar study this year indicates that these figures are still accurate.
Taking $45 a month for security room and board, plus a $75 initiation fee, plus the smallest University fees of $88 this would be a total close to $350 for the dormitory of girls on NXA was determined to be $35 a year.
Although sorority girls wear clothes to classes which are supposed to be smartly sloppy, I suppose surely their formulas are not bought to be worn in the same way as those of any other class. Anyway, there are a lot of non-sorority girls who can't afford much in the way of clothes. Frankly I don't know but I'd venture to say most sorority girls have a kind of self-consciousness.
And so parents should know that a young woman may come to KU, and get an education without the advantages of a security (how sad) on $235 a year or less as shown by carefully compiled statistics.

Hospital Guinea Pigs Aid In Detecting T.B. Cases
Guinea pigs, microscopes, and X-ray machines combined with the testing and diagnosis of the staff at the Watkins Memorial hospital are all used in combating the development and spread of tuberculosis among students at the University.
One thousand three hundred and twenty-five new students were given the preliminary tuberculosis test last fall. Among these students there were 542 positive reactions to the arm test. Chest X-ray's were taken

lier in the evening he'd been the victim of a telephone conversation that would worry any band leader. It ran something like this;
Corner voice: Hello, Mr. Smith!
This is Ahno Gretter. I'm a right smart trumpet player. Could you use me in your band?
Mr. Smith: I'm afraid not. I already have two fine trombones.
Corny voice: Well I'd shore like to have you hear me. Will you practice before the party?
Corny voice. Well I don't have a tux but I got some sailor pants that look real slick. I'll wear them.
Mr. Smith: We never practice.
Corny voice: Oh that's all right I'll come on up and sit in with your outfit anyway. So long.
Never prefers.
Corry voice. I don't think so.
How will your band dress tonight?
Smith: The boys will wear tuxedos.
The party was well under way before Smith discovered that it was Dean Brooks, his ace trombone man, who had so annoyed him.
of the 542 students to find the type and extent of the tuberculosis. Through the chest X-ray tests it is determined for certain whether or not an individual has tuberculosis. This disease always effects the lungs and hence the danger of congion in spread through coughs.
Smith: Well thanks, but . . .
Early Diagnosis Important
The two types of tuberculosis are childhood tuberculosis, and adult or secondary, tuberculosis, both of which give a positive reaction to the arm test. The childhood tuberculosis is seldom fatal and is usually inactive in college students. The secondary tuberculosis, which is the more serious type, gets its best start in persons 19 to 28 years old.
Out of the 542 positive arm tests, eight students were found to have the adult type of tuberculosis. Three of the eight had the active and inactive tuberculosis and were advised withdraw from school until cured.
"Because an early diagnosis is important in accomplishing a satisfactory cure, and to protect those who come in contact with the carrier, the Watkins Memorial hospital is carrying out a necessary preventative plan by an ingenious method utilized by the staff of the doctor." Dr. R. I. Caranotone, director of the student health service, said.
Watch Five Inactive Cases Closely "Due to the early diagnosis, these cases will react more favorably to treatment; a cure may be effected within a year, and school work may be completed inpatient." Doctor Canutenm explained.
