Kansan Comment
If K-State Can Do It. Why Not We?
The announcement that Kansas State college will soon publish an interpretative magazine, presenting a complete picture of campus life, suggests the need for a similar publication on Mount Oread.
True there is the Jayhawker and the Sour Owl, but neither magazine fulfill the functions of a true University magazine as do The Stanford Chapel or The West Point Pointer.
It is probably expecting too much to ask the Sour Owl to change after all these years, and the very nature of the Jayhawker makes it more of a review of the year than an interpretive magazine.
The University has just as many traditions and as much talent and ability as any other college in the country. There is no reason why it cannot support a monthly pocket-size publication devoted to the more serious aspects of college life.
Save Democracy in Schools, Not in Camps
The recent proposal for a training course in democracy involves the same program for which we condemn Germany—the indoctrination of youth.
The plan, initiated by a Delaware minister, advocates a "non-military service program for re-education in citizenship and self-discipline as a moral bulwark which alone will save democracy." The minister urges that every boy be enlisted immediately after high school for a year's training in principles of democracy in cooperation with the government.
In Germany, education consists of the indoctrination of youth in the principles of fascism. The parallel which may be drawn between the two indoctrinations is rather uncomfortable. Are we so afraid of losing our democracy that we must resort to the methods of dictators to keep it? And if we adopt their methods, is that not a step toward dictatorship?
Admitting the need for training in social efficiency, the place to start is in the schools. If they cannot produce the right kind of citizens, then it is time that our educational system is reorganized instead of setting up a new machine outside the schools which will only need repair and which cannot do the job any better.
The President's attempt to bring the C.I.O. and A.F.L. together is a good example of laboring at an union .
The end of the rainbow has finally been found. It is at Fort Knox, Ky., where the United States keeps its sixty per cent of the world's gold.
Lesson Number Five:
February.Daze
February is the shortest month of the year.
This is because it has twenty-eight or sometimes twenty-nine days whereas each of the other months have thirty or thirty-one days, depending of course in which line their names occur in that famous poem beginning: "Thirty days hath September - - - -"
Thus February is a good month for those people who get paid by the month because they receive a month's salary for doing less work than they ordinarily receive a month's salary for.
But it also means that February is a bad month for those who get bills by the月. Because they have to pay a month's bill for only twenty-eight or sometimes twenty-nine days' service.
People who get paid by the month would like to see February become shorter because they would get paid more.
People who pay bills by the month would like to see February become longer because they would pay out less.
And people who both pay and get paid by the month would like to see February both longer and shorter.
But since the calendar makers can't please everybody, February will probably continue to have twenty-eight and sometimes twenty-nine days, which should make everybody feel either very good or very bad or both.
The Spanish war is over, and it is expected to be five more years before someone brings up the question: "Who won the Spanish civil war?"
The Supreme Court condemned "sit-down" strikes in a surprise decision yesterday. "Sit-down" strikes are against the law, illegal, unconstitutional, and besides that they aren't "cricket."

Kicks About 'Lombardo Lover'
Editor. Daily Kansan:
With all due respects to the gentleman who wrote his own opinion of Jimmy Robertson & Co. of Krupa etc., we take this opportunity to inform him that, contrary to whatever feelings he has about the matter, his personal opinion carries little weight with the majority of students.
It has been customary, in past years, to express one's opinions AS opinions when writing editorials, instead of setting them down as facts which every schoolchild should know. We are not trying to tell anyone what music is better or whether Jimmy Robertson is a columnist. On the contrary we should like to point out the gentleman's possible misstatements and let the readers draw their own conclusions.
In the first place, he asserted that those who are putting out the Kansan are not journalists. This is also largely a matter of opinion, but there has been little complaint to date. We rather complain that compulsive reading could have been, by now, compulsions from persons far better schooled in journalism than the "Lombardo Lover."
In the second place, he demands that everyone forsake Shaw, etc., and boost Lombardo. It seems to be the general concensus of opinion that Lombardo's music went out with the horse.
Lastly, and worst of all, he informs all advocates of sowing that they shouldn't be out of knee pants. Because he is a 'Lombardo Lover' doesn't mean that he is a champion. Perhaps it is better that he DIDN't sign his name.
But we wish only to remind the gentleman whi his opinions may be as good as anyone's, he will be better in the future if he will present them as such at the meeting. But we would not want to memory by everyone on the Hill and elsewhere.
JUST A KICK
Turn About Is Fair Play
Edition: Deluxe Edition
Editor. Daily Kansan:
At the recent annual Negro Student Varsity a large number of white student were present who formed a large audience of spectators.
I don't know whether they came to listen to the music (I have a hunch that that was their purpose) or to watch the "Jitterbugs" dance. But whatever the reason they seemed to be enjoying themselves. We must admit that the music was sweet and tantalizing coming from the well-known K.C. Rockets band.
We have noticed this sort of situation before when the affair was supposedly to have been a strictly "Negro affair" that our customary white spectators came in to listen to the orchestra. Now don't get me wrong. We were listening to the orchestra. We do like to be admirable whether it be for our dancing technique or for musical reasons.
Let's get down to the point. What would like to do is be allowed to do likewise. We were just wondering if the white students would mind if we be spectators for once. Since we as a student group can't finance the appearance of such well-known bands as Duke Ellington, Jimmi Lueferon, Ferdinand Loeper, it appears to me that we should be allowed to speak or listen in on the music of those we love so well.
Can't we be broad-minded and unbiased about the matter? We would like to hear Count Basie "swing" when he comes on the Hill Friday night. I've heard that what is good for the goose is certainly good for the gander. How about it? Do we or do we not hear the Count?

Most of the young initiates are freshmen-unlike in the early days when only seniors were admitted to membership in a fraternity. Another practice which has been abandoned is having initiation all year around. It was a little too hard on the members.
"Must we pet?" was the challenging question hurled at a student forum at the state university this week. Probably not, but at times it's a pleasant change from bridge—The Ottawa Herald.

Editorial Staff
Most of the organized houses have existed for 50 years on the average. Many during their early stages were literary or professional organizations having only their Greek names in common.
Prof. Percy W. Bridgeman, known as the premier physicist of Harvard University, has barred his laboratory to any student from a totalitarian state, and the dean of the college at Princeton University hails his set as a great deed. That's the nice thing about scientists. They think of nothing but the advancement of science.

The papers report that when the jury announced its decision, Jimmy Hines' face was covered with an unusual blush. The papers failed to say which of the 58 varieties it was.

Some college students get jobs to get degrees, while others get degrees to get jobs. Graduates, we unanimously say, face the fact that they have degrees.
Just because Mrs. Roosevelt resigned publicly in her column last night from a club she belonged to, she needn't think that all columns will do the same. We wouldn't think of turning in our lovely embossed membership card in the Cappet Poultry Club which has been our pride and joy for lo these many years.
It's a shame so many students chose to ignore Igor Gorin's concert last night.

Out of the establishment of the second chapter of Alpha Delta Phi at Miami University, Ohio, grew the first chapter of Beta Theta Pi. It was the first fraternity west of the Alleghenies. Kappa Kappa Gamma was founded in the same year as Kappa Alpha Theta but in a later month.
On the Shin --
On the Hill, Beta Theta Pi was the first fraternity, established in 1872 Phi Kappa Psi was second in 1876.
Pi Beta founded in 1873 was the first sorority on the Hill. Kappa Alpha Theta was second in 1881.
If it's true that Phog Allen has promised his basketball players a rattlesnake dinner if—or rather when—they win the conference championship, I wonder if Les Kappelman or Fen Dardur would mind smuck me out a nice mite whathawk. They'll probably grade last year and heard that Indians are rattlesnakes I've wanted to taste a hunk.
Westminster A Cappella To Sing in Kansas City
The Westminster A Cappella choir of 72 voices will represent the University Thursday and Friday when it sings with the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra in Kansas City's Music Hall.
(Continued from page one)
Final rehearsal with orchestra and solist will be held Thursday morning. The trip to Kansas City will be made by bus both days. The choir will return to Lawrence each evening following the performance.
The choir will perform the "Ninti-
n or Choral Symphony" by Beethoven in which Marie and Joseph Wilkins of Lawrence will sing the solo parts of soprano and tenor. Under the direction of Dean D. M. Swarthout, the choir has been studying this intensively during the school year.

Patty Jayne Wadley, much in the news lately because of her vocalizing in "Cum Laude," is probably still mad because her name appeared "Paddy" on the program and hence in the most of her clippings—if she keeps clipping, and she probably does. Miss Patty, by the way, has been coking and churching and dancing with J. D. Ramsey quite often, at her school began. Yshi Ster approves heartily of any steps this couple might take toward getting serious—and in a cupidly tails told Fletto to play with his own gang on the other side of the tracks.
