Kansan Comment
Everyone Enjoyed Hop- Then the Bills Came In
Fond memories of the recent Sophomore Hop may linger in the minds of many persons.
These fond memories cannot be expected to be shared by the class of '41. The loss on the dance was estimated at $125.
The number of passes used was fifty-eight. They were divided as follows:
42 to politicians—M.S.C., W.S.G.A.
5 to officers, dance managers
5 to the ticket salesmen
2 to the Daily Kansan
2 to the Sour Owl
1 to Jayhawker
1 to "Publicity"
Maybe it is necessary that members of the student governing bodies should get passes—even after their term of office has expired.
Maybe it is necessary for the Hill publications to receive passes for publicity purposes. But we don't see why.
And the fact remains that if fifty-eight more tickets had been sold at $1.75 apiece, the deficit would have been cut down to about $25.
Perhaps if there had been no passes for the class affair, the class of '41 might not have lost so much money, and the fond memories might have been universal.
Liberty-Lovers Rally To Defend Religion
Religion's place in democracy, as recognized by President Roosevelt in his message to Congress, has been a topic of much recent comment. It is a notable event in political affairs when the leader of a country makes a public call upon religious sentiment to preserve equanimity in matters of public interest nowadays.
That great destroyer of spiritual values—war—left countless thousands with empty souls after the great World War. This barrenness of spirit was furthered by the materialistic twenties just after the war. Came the depression, and people again learned that it is indeed folly to base all one's happiness on material goods.
Europe was shattered more badly than the United States by the World War. Her people were lost. In following their dictatorial leaders, they may have progressed a little materially, but certainly not spiritually. The sad lessons taught by religious persecutions are being learned anew by Catholic, Protestant, and Jew. A social order based on force and servile submission, which exalts the state above all else, leaves no room for the dignity of the individual. Their tongues have been silenced, and their minds and souls will be chained.
President Roosevelt will find the agnostics of his country, as well as the members of organized denominations, ready to support his call to rally religious freedom and peace as a pillar of democracy.
Gallop Poll Compiles Student Activity Schedule
January 15- Students pledge themselves to a hard week of study. Finals, you know.
January 23—Students face the necessity of cramming for finals after missing two good weekends.
January 21—Students really pledge themselves to a weekend of diligent reviewing. Finals, you know.
January 25—Students are ready to give up and go home. Finals tomorrow, you know.
January 24—Students decide that if they get through this semester they will really keep up second semester.
January 26—Students have decided to take finals anyway. Have two hours to study before first one and maybe they can learn something then.
February 2—Students resolve never to go through another semester like the last one. Now for some real study.
February 15 - Students are up in all classes after first week of school.
February 22—Half of the students are up in half of their classes after second week of school.
May 20-Students pledge themselves to a hard weekend of study. Finals coming up, you know.
This is where we came in.
I. S. A. Proposes To Make Campus Society Democratic
The Independent Student Association, whose membership drive starts tomorrow, offers to "barbs" for the first time the opportunity to have social advantages equal to those traditionally associated with "organized houses."
The idea behind the I.S.A. seems to be fundamentally sound. It has been tried and proven at other Universities. There is no reason
why fraternity members should have the advantage over unaffiliated students in social activity—that is one of the exploded premises of collegiate prestige.
The new plan proposes to give independent students dances that may properly be compared in entertainment quality to similar fraternity and sorority parties. By so doing, it definitely makes for more representative social democracy on the Campus, and as such it should be encouraged by independents and "Greeks" alike.
Goodbye, Arch Jarrell--
We'll Still be Reading You
The Kansas press says goodbye to Arcel Jarrell, as skilled a newspaperman as ever had his paragraphs clipped from the Ark City Traveler in news rooms throughout the Middle West. He goes from his post as managing editor of the Ark City paper to the editorship of another of Oscar Stauffer's papers in Grand Island, Neb. It is a step up on the well-known ladder. It is a promotion.
Students of journalism at the University thank Arch Jarrell for helping to make the Kansas press one of the most respected in the country. It is through the efforts of men like the witty Ark City columnist and editor that Kansas newspapers have been made national leaders in wit, fairness, and good common horse sense.
Meanwhile, first, we pick up our scissors and await our Arch Nebraska column.
Campus Opinion
Editor, Daily Kansan:
As co-chairman of the Y.M.C.A.-Y.W.C.A. Curwen Action Commission, I wish to correct a statement which appeared in the Kanman of Jan. 12 concerning this Commission. In the Kanman's report of the so-called commission, Mr. Elijah Cole was stated that Elijah Cole was elected head of the joint Commission. This statement is untrue. The meeting which the Kanman reported was that of a group of students who wish to further the cause of the Youth Committee Against War here on the camps and was of that group that Elijah Cole was elected chairman.
- I also wish to put an end to any misconception of the Current Action Commission which may result from the statement made at Wednesday's meeting by Harriet Stephens, also co-chairman of the Commission. She will speak at our next meeting since meeting time and place to the new anti-war group since the Commission planned to spend the rest of its time working in the group. Though our Commission may cooperate with the newly-formed peace group, we do not intend to lose our identity in and become connived with the group. Ms. Stephens' statement was slimly misleading.
A meeting of the Current Action Commission will be held on Wednesday, Jan. 16 at 4:30 in Henley House.
Sincerely,
GERALD BANKER

University Graduate Studies Healing Maggots
By Paul W. Anderson, c'uncl.
Many articles have been written about the University's department of entomology and its collection of insects, but little has been mentioned about insects individually, as to their beneficial or harmful effect upon man and his environment.
Comparatively few people realize that the small, white, squirmig maggot is actually used in combat disease of men. William Robinson who graduated from the University in 1924 with a Masters degree in entomology and who is now located at George Washington University in Washington, D. C., has done great work in the study of maggots and their use in fighting diseases of human beings.
Not so many years ago Dr. William C. Bauer presented a new and unusual treatment for slow-healing wounds such as the persistent and widespread bone disease known as osteomyelitis. This disease caused great sorets in the flesh of human beings and instead of healing, sometimes continued to go unchecked for years. In response to this sudden lapse, Sterile blowy maggots were placed directly into the wounds that had failed to heal under other treatments and, after a few applications of maggots, the wounds in general became cleaner and healing began to take place.
Baer Started Movement
The success of this novel method of fighting stubborn discharging wounds aroused a great deal of interest and it was found that the maggots were not only acting as savengers in eating pus-forming wounds, but were actually injecting a potent healing substance into the wound.
Search For Healing Agent
A search for this healing agent was therefore attempted. Realizing that throughout nature no organism does anything primarily to benefit an unrelated individual, it was decided that any good resulting from the association must be the result of a secondary or involuntary act. In the case of the maggot, it must include the function of excretion. As the fecal and urinary products of maggots are abundant and conspicuous, a study of them was undertaken first.
In this study, it was found by chemical analysis that allantoin was found in the excretion of maggans. Previously this fluid had been found to contain great healing powers, as an Englishman by the name McAlister had written an article in 1912 stating that he had used allantoin successfully in the treatment of chronic ulcers.
As the amount of allantoin in may-
get excretions is too small and the
process of extraction to involve to
much, allantoin was prepared synthetically
for academic purposes. Its effect in
stimulating healing was carefully
notes'n discords
by John Randolph Tye
One of the best things about a college education is the great minds a student comes into contact with. Only this week we brushed shoulders with the following notables: a man who used to hit the "O" in the Jack Benny Jello program; a woman who owned a hen that was featured in Ripley's "Believe It or Not"; and last but not least, a younger brother of a man who once held the national tree-sitting title.
As far as we can see, the only change that will occur when the Daily Kansan becomes an evening instead of a morning paper is that in the Hill restaurants hall will instead of coffee spots, wine stairs.

Milky Remarkable Recovery
Remarkable recoveries from stubborn cases of unhealing infestations have been reported in which the use of allantoin has played an important part.
An elderly woman had an infected eye removed, and despite every treatment to refuse the infection of the eye socket, it failed to bail. Finally, when the socket was packed with wet anatomy dressings, it responded promptly and healed in less than 3 weeks.
Many Remarkable Recoveries
A man with chronic discharging X-ray burns on the foot had tried many kinds of treatment without avail, and for several years walked with the aid of crutches. After using alloinction solution for 2 months he was so far recovered that he discarded crutches and used only a two-inch cutlery until he next few months enabled him to walk normally without support.
Thus one sees the benefits resulting from this small white, squirrel maggot, which to many people is just a worm.
Will Durant--
eral years and continues to be reprinted to the present day.
At the present time, Durant is working upon an ambitious project entitled "The Story of Civilization." This work will, when completed trace the cultural, political and economic institutions of the present nations. "The first pair 'Our Oriental Mutants,' was published in 1895.
Chancellor E. H. Lindley, commenting upon the lecture, said that he had heard Mr. Durant speak on the same subject at a district convention of Rotary in Joplin, Mo., last spring.
Mr. Lindley indicated that he regarded Mr. Durant as a most friendly human lecturer, and his address as the clearest, sanest, most comprehensive analysis of the national situation that he has ever heard.

as ever.
"Kingfish" Chuck Alexander's purge of the I.S.A. seems to have met with a little opposition from the Susan Maloney faction, which, until yesterday, didn't note that he was assuming a rather dictatorial attitude. The whole affair is regretable. The independents have a good hand in the way they hold of the thing of power, can soon ruin. One side or the other should pull a Chamberlin pronto or the national convention to be held here on April First will come on a most appropriate day.
Came theme-song-time at the last mid-week. Zeke Cole was dancing with a Gamma Phi named Betty. Zeke asked her date's name so he could do a little looking but couldn't think. At last she said, "I'm going to see uh. uh Wednesday" .uh .um 'it!" Which would indicate that some swain is sickling a mighty wide swath where Betty is concerned.
Cecil Strickland worked hard on an engineering report last Friday night. In fact, he worked until early the next morning. At 7:30 he decided to take a bath. On his re-turn from the tub he discovered he had laid a bathrobe on a cigaret. His desk was in flames, and before Roger "Emily Post" Prior (a co-author of "Manners Make Men") could extinguish the blaze with wet towels, Cecil's report, notes, textbooks, best shirt, and fountain pen had been consumed. The moral if any: Don't take a bath, but if you must, don't smoke.
