R UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN OFFICIAL STUDENT PAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS NUMBER 110 VOLUME XXXVI LAWRENCE, KANSAS. FRIDAY, MARCH 10, 1930 Ghosts Run Wild Over Kappa Sigma By Clint Wood, c'40 - Independent Team Ramps Through Frat Quintet in First Game of Intra-mural Finals Z-229 The unpredictable Galloping Ghosts ran wild over a demoralized Kappa Sigma aggregation yesterday to take the first game of the University intramural finals 32 to 14. For the first time during the playoffs, the Ghosts played the brand of ball that has made them one of the most feared teams on the Hill for a number of years. The smaller Sig's brilliant passing game failed to click and the Ghosts didn't even slow the Ghost offense down as they galpped through, around, and over the baffled Sig's to score most of their points by set ups. The second game for the University Intramural basketball championship will be played between Kappa Sigma and the Galloping Ghosts Monday in Robinson gymnasium. The Kappa Sig. as, usual, jumped into an early lead when Steve Cave dropped in a long shot from the side shortly after the opening tip-off, Coffin, Ghost's brilliant guard, tied it up with a beautiful left handed shot from the corner of the court. For several minutes both teams played eratically, taking wild shots and fighting for the ball, Hensley gave the Sig's a lead with a long shot but from here on the Ghosts settled down and took complete charge of the game, to take most of the rebounds off of each backboard and Warren Shupe hit a goal from the side, added a one-handed shot from the free-bre row and hit a setup while Hare and Savely were each scoring a long goal for the Ghosts. Out In Front With the Ghosts now out in front 12 to 4, the Sig's abandoned their smooth passing game and threw the ball around wildly in an attempt to score. The half ended with the score 12 to 5 when Clover made a long run. It was followed by McIntire of the Ghosts just before the period was over. Starting the second half, the Ghosts begin to play a stalling game, the Sig's began to rush them and the Ghosts passed the ball effectively around the bewildered Kappa Sig's to score three setups in rapid succession. Honaley tossed in a free-throw for the Sig's to bring the score to 18-6 in favor of the Ghosts and Southern sank a beautiful shot from the center of the court after which the Ghosts again turned on the power and ran their score up to 28 when Kelley made a setup. Drops in Long One Coffin dropped in a long shot, and Hars and Shape each got free under the basket for a close shot. Cave, Pierson and Clover then each made a long shot to Sig's score to 14 and Savely slipped through a setup and made good. Foulwife failed to report foulwife ended failed to report Ghosts in complete control of the situation 32 to 14. Warren Shupe was hight point man of the game with 8 points for the Ghosts and 'rudely Sawy was close behind with 7. Cave's four points was high for Kappa Sigma.

Unofficial estimates were that about 600 of the University's 3,800 students participated in the one-day demonstration in protest to the administration's athletic policy to de-emphasize football and other affiliated administration "banging" of the university athletic situation. Three police cars patrolled the campus as "gurilla riot" groups of strikers had occasional fist fights with students who opposed a general strike as part of the demonstration. Milling groups of students sang, cheered, and walked in and out of class rooms, interrupting instructors in an effort to get other students to join in the protest. A bugle kept blowing "tape" to the "femal knell" of big time football which Sutherland had built up in his 15 years as coach. Despite the din some instructors continued their classes, while a few suspended when the paraders entered with placards. One instructor took off his glasses and battled a group of invaders. With the aid of students he barricaded the doors. In other class rooms the demonstrators were booed. It was reported that fraternity houses were called last night and members warned not to participate in the gathering, of the report could not be learned. University Band Concert Postponed to March 30 Announcement was made today by Kenneth Postlethwait, secretary of the University Concert Band that the thirty-second annual spring concert had been postponed from March 13 to March 30. Lack of sufficient practice time was given as the reason for the delay. The group needs additional work on Bill Ward's "Oread Symphony" and on Tschakowsky's "First Concerto." Jan Chapuspo, not pianist, will appear with the band when it plays the concerto. Westminster Student Foundation, dinner-dance et Colonial Tea room and Westminster hall, 12 o'clock. Time taken from the band's regular practice time to prepare the Kamas network broadcasts has been improved by a factor in causing the postemployment.

ELIZABETH MEGUIAR Adviser of Women. Aid and Promote Democracy, Say Forum Speakers - Social Justice Is Vital, Neutrality Is Necessary, Haskell and Soideman Tell Student Youth Meeting How can war be averted in the future? That was the question that Dr. Joel Seidman, chairman of the League for Industrial Democracy and Henry J. Haskell, editor-in-chief of the Leisure Magazine, described last night before the Youth Forum in the Memorial Union ballroom. Both men, who are authoritis in their respective fields, discuss the subject from different angles Hasbell chose as his topie "Roosevelt Congress and Peace." Dr. Hasbell wrote that "Bank Accounts and Peace." The speakers were introduced by Elijah Cole, c'40, chairman of the Student Peace group. In opening the discussion Mr Haskell said, "Even though our interests are in line with the democracies we should keep neutral as much as possible. But neutrality is not the same as grave killings." Should Aid Trade The truth is we should do all we can to aid the democracies as far as trade is concerned and also the keeping of good relations with them but that doesn't mean we should fight their wars for them. Haskell based his conclusions regarding neutrality on two things: letting aggressor nations know when and where our sympathies lie, and keeping aggressor nations guessing as to our future plans. "Our world today is a very different world from that which our ancestors knew," Mr. Haskell told his audience. "Since it is a different world we must be orient our world to fit the world we now live in." Every nation bases its foreign policy on the national interest involved and constructs its program of national defense in accordance with this interest, declared Mr. Faskell. Best Defense of Democracy Dr. Seideman, in conducting the last half of the discussion, told his audience that the best defense that America can build is a democracy that totalitarian governments will admire. A sound democracy built upon social equality can do more for foreign defense than anything else, explained Dr. Seideman. "Let's have social justice here in the United States," he said. "France and England but let us not use the marines to open up trade there." Dr. Seideman declared, a war under any circumstances will not be a dictatorship against democracy but a war between leaders. For a stable democracy we must have social justice, which means not a denial in the general sense and democracy in the specific sense as well.

Canutelson, student of the doctor health service. divine experience if you want t Hardships of K' Initiates Bring Varied Comment Rv Reginald Buxton, c40' Large Pledge Class Freddie took the vows back in the days when becoming a K Club member meant wearing three coner dress suits and a jacket, acquaintances. Last year a few of the brawny boys of the gaming fields objected to some of the initiation pranks—the diapers proved to be sort of an Achilles' heel—and as a result part of the boys didn't go through with the intake the word of Jack Nessly, b'30 Ralph Miller, ed'42, and Bill Len hart, c'40. This year K-Club bigwigs softened up and as a result 28 men donned blankets, tied towels around their jaws, and became the largest pledge class to be initiated in several years. Not all the initiates agree with Freddie that it still isn't "Hell." Packing ten sticks of gum into a jaw tied up with a wet nail isn't a A tremendous amount of time is lost in industrial centers because workers are not given first aid precautions, and as a result, must quit work for a certain length of time when going long along with their work. By Reginald Bassett "Nuts," said Freddie Beeslowe c'39, star football tackle, his warring temper getting he will "getting as a soft as a half-baked marshmellow." Freddie was referring to the K Club initiates that were scurrying about the campus this morning in blankets acting like scared rabbits but looking like poverty stricken Indians. There are two such stations in Douglas county giving treatment to injured persons before they are taken to the hospital. Prof. Paul H. Douglas, University of Chicago, is a candidate for alderman from Chicago's fifth ward. Mr. Johnson also pointed out the importance of first aid stations along the highways. These are usually located in filling stations or other stopping places along the roads where truffle is heaviest. At present one exists for about every 24 miles. The electrical power official believes they should be increased to about one in every 10 miles. Johnson Urges Safety Program ★ Says First Aid in Rural and Industrial Centers Will Prevent Losses He explained that out of the annual income of $9,000,000,000 of persons living in rural sections, $1,000,000 goes for doctor bills and hospital fees. This is due to the accidents on farms that might have been checked to a large extent by safety measures. "First aid is one of the most important things in rural accidents," said Mr. Johnson. "If a man is given first aid when he receives an injury, he will have much less chance of getting injured." He has also passed over the matter without any attention to the wound." Emphasizing the need of first aid programs for industrial safety, C.M. Johnson of the Kansas Electric Power company addressed the American Society of Mechanical Engineers last night. University women went to the poll yesterday and put five independent women on the council to climax a W.S.G.A. election contest which was comparable to the men's campaigns for political maneuvers. Only 664 women—less than half the Hill women—cast their votes for the 12 positions open on the Council which governs them. Velma Wilson Elected to Head Women Students And being embarrassed to the point of tears when a professor coldly looks over your blanketed body and betweened face and advices. "If you're that ill, you'd betray me," she said, especially desirous sensation. It's rough; just ask Bill Arnold, c'40. Renko gets Off Easy By Agnes Mumert, c'40 Velma Wilson, c'40, wased elected to succeed Gevere Landrith, c'39, as president of the Council. Backed by the Pi Phi, Gamma Phi, Theta, Corbin, Watkins, and combine, and the predicted "favorite," she won over Marie Norton, c'40, 373-291. - Five Independent a Win Offices in W.S.G.A. Election Held Yesterday in Rotunda of Frank Strong Hall; Less Than Half of Coeds Vote as Only 664 Ballots Are Cast Maybe it was Steve Renko, c42, that Freddie was "beeping" by Steve got off the easiest of the lot because he only had one class and that one at 11:30 a.m. The varsity came over to Robinson gymnasium, was checked in by the bullies, and then lounged around the joint in his flowing garment until his only class—in Robinson. Monte Merkel, ed'41, mighty tackle from the tackle, showed up at the checking-in station sans the required doll but with a shaggy pooch as a substitute. Merkel, and Chester Gibbons, *d'41*, because of their rollyphysiognomy, were the objects of unjust accusations of no carrying There were no reports of anyone trying to take the 240 pound leviana that the Windy City down and chastising him for insubordination. The combine reported to have been confident of a "sweeping landslide" won seven positions on the Council, including two of the four major offices. The rival combine which includes Chi Omega, Alpha Chi Omega, Alpha Delta Pi, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Sigma Kappa, and all other sororities and independents, ran in the remaining five. Robertson Nosed Out Betty McVey, c'40, deluded Louise Grayson, c'40, 360-391 for vice-president of the council. The two remaining offices went to independent women. Winifred Jameson, b'40, bled out Jean Robertson, c'41, by being fired. Jack Pearson, c'41, won over the Corbin candidate Jean Steele, c'41, 329-325. Voting was close in two other instances only—in the race for senior and sopohone secretaries. Mary Garrison, c'40 defeated Maurine Mong, c'40 by four in the 91-87 race, and Jeanne Breuss, fa'42 won over Freda Lawson, fa'42, for sopohonese secretary, 79-71. Organized campaigning is considered illegal in W.S.G.A. elections, and is defined to mean distributing printed bills, transporting voters to the polls, or any "form of bribe." Many houses telephoned independent women living in houses not organized to solicit their votes. Clip Off Ballot Numbers Three weeks ago various houses meet to select candidates and map out election plans. Candidates then submit their applications to the com mittee of five senior women, and ballet forms were drawn up. Many women were given lists showing them how to perform, their combine wished them to vote. Both dormitories and sororities required that their residents vote, and women who neglected this duty were given dementia which may result in campuses. Contrary to the practice in former year, ballot numbers were slipped off so that there would be no check on voting. Three members of the present W.S.G.A. council were re-elected to the body in different offices. Wilson, the victorious presidential candidate, is the present treasurer, and Betty McVey, elected vice-president of the council is now junior vice-president. Brown Is Representative Ruth Olive Brown, c'40, is the college representative, having defeated Francine Zemnyter, c'40, 295-237.

In the race for senior vice-president Betty Jane Beddington, c'40, edged out Noll Clark, c'40, 96-84. Junior offices were not closely contested. June Aumiller, c'40, won over Helen Anderson, fa'uncl, for vice-president by 27 votes. Dorothy Hendrison, ka'41, was elected junior secretary, with 94 votes in opposition to Mary Lou Randall, 'uncl, who received 55, and Margaret Harbaugh, c'41, 21. Jeanne Moyer, fa'42, won the sophomore vice - presidency from Nadine Schuerman. c'42 by 24 votes. Amendment Carries Four revised articles of the W.S.-G.A. constitution and two articles of the by-laws were included on a printed sheet, and they were voted on, in committee for or against. Twenty words were written in the negative for the proposal, and 529 voted for it. The remainder of the women neglected to vote.
