Comment--by John Randolph Tye
Progressives Hold Promise For G.O.P.
As Congress settles down to business, observers the country over are watching the debates for glimpses of the Republican party's renaissance. The substantial working opposition in evidence will be severely scrutinized in future. The approaching Presidential year gives spice to the proceedings, if the issues are all of a Democratic split, the Republicans may have their day sooner than earlier predictions would allow.
The question is: Are the Republicans, even after the jolts they have received, capable of fulfilling the requirements of an intelligent opposition? If so, they will be recommending themselves as capable of handling majority rule sometime in the nearer future. This is their testing-time, and wo be to them if they neglect their duty and devote themselves to quibbles, personalities, and vagueness.
Only very recently has the record tended in their favor. Appacently stumed by the double blows of 1932 and 1936, the logical necessity of setting their house in order has been approached gingerly and fearfully. The rise of a new social liberalism found them politically drowsy, a state from which they have been slow to rouse themselves.
The first reaction was a war-ry of fascism or of communism-with a proud disregard of definition. This shaded into a panegyric-process in regard to the "American system," plus the same disregard. Even August of 1937 found the Republicans cold to Hoover's suggestion of a new party principle. But August of 1938 found them gathered around the streamlined image of an elephant, inscribed: "Let's G.O. Places!"
It is to be hoped that the phrase is prophetic. Certain things do tie in. Previously Glenn Frank had been reluctantly appointed to hear a plat-form committee—100 men and a goal. This was a good augury and it is to be hoped that intelligent suggestions will be made.
The November campaign brought forth the pleasantest indications of all, for there were a number of young, progressive candidates presented who were also capable of thinking straight. Taft of Ohio, Dewey and Barton, of New York, Lodge of Massachusetts, Vanderbilt of Rhode Island—such men as these are the Party's hopes for a rename of the state, to see that New Deal objectives are unavailable. They were quick to agree with its motives. But they were equally quick to decry its methods and there they struck at their opposition's weakest point.
The faculty members of the physical department presented Mrs. Howard L. MnCurdy with a beautiful tea service yesterday afternoon.
Physical Education Faculty Presents Gift to MacCurdy
Mrs. MacCurdy, assistant professor of physical education, will leave the University faculty as soon as the final examinations are over to join her husband in a job they will make their residence. Before her marriage last month, Mrs. MacCurdy was Miss Elizabeth G. Dunkel.
Let the Republicanis be resigned to a new and irreducible minimum of progressivism. Let them become interested in methods and men. Let them, above all, be careful of attacking the amazingly popular practical ideology of Secretary Hill. And let them find themselves fulfilling a perfectly healthy American tradition by taking another turn at governing.

CAMPUS OPINION
Protests Intramural Coverage Editor: Daily Kansan:
What's the matter with the Kansan's intramural basketball coverage of the team? Was it efficient or lazy? By looking through the files of the Kansan for several years back, I discovered that intratournaments were less complete than for any previous season. Kansans of other years carved out a place in the games with box scores, this year, the Kansan has had box scores for only two seasons. How many hundreds of games played. Why?
Maybe the present editor of sports does not realize that most of the men and many of the women readers of sports are able to score scores for familiar names while under the present method of reporting games, when they are reported, only a few scores are received.
University Daily Kansan
The other night, intramural scoring records were shattered when one team scored 122 points in a regular season. The second four points. The Lawrence paper mentioned this the next night, the Kansas omitted it entirely from its next season and missed four days later. Interested intramuralists can no longer depend on the Kansas for intramural news but must go to the intramural office
Yours for a wide-awake sports department.
