Editor's note: Way back in 1923 children did scandalous things at the University so a yellow named Robert covered a column in which he spread the dirt. The column was called "On the Shin" and blossomed forth on page one. The year of its incipiation stained it red, and it was dust storm. One explanation at the time was: "This ninti no real dust storm, it's Hollyway dragon!" He then wrote yesterday for a visit and consented to write today's column.
If the truth were known, . . . and I understand that it off times 'willw out' (boy, do I like to say 'willw out' like that) you the venerable Uncle Joe hardly know how to go about this business since the only keys I've punched in the last three years were those on a tenor saxophone (att'n, all aspiring journalist!).

No Daily Kansan Until Next Tuesday; Turkey Day Jeans
Once again the annual turkey sees
seen rells, around and the result it
that all the labs and lashes on this
Campus flag up their heels and dash
for home in order to portake of the
Thursday feast.
Some assert that they go home for a different reason, but that is hard to believe. Because everyone known as a friend also likes to eat as well as he does.
Trains will be boarded, buses cancled, cars "thumbed," today now when this institute let's its inmates go. But alera, ply those youthful vagrants Sunday night when brawn will be tainted to the limit with what they should have been tazed with four days before. Anyhow, Monday morning at the early hour of 8:30 a.m. students will again be at their posts, [let us hope it isn't the bed posts].
Because of no school the Daily Kansas does not see why it should put out a paper for no one to row until Tuesday, Nov. 29.
Report Gauntlet Killing of Jews
kMany Brutally Beater To Death By German Troopers
The supported eyewitness account which the newspapers said was obtained 'from sources the veracity of which may be possible to doubt.' follows in part:
"A Berlin police officer and 15 policemen arrived at the concentration camp with 62 hostages to be delivered to the camp commander. The police guarded the camp for years, doctors, loadlifters, engineers, businessmen, and two rabbis."
"At the rate of the camp stood two guards in the black uniform of Hitler's deathhead battalion.
"Entering, the police officers made the hostages leave the motor coach and prepared to march them to the offices of the camp commander for registration but two long ranks of black muck lined the way with whips, clubs, and spades, in their hands.
The gunnell scene occurred at Sachsenhausen Concentration camp, the newspapers said, and lasted a half hour with the guards hitting the Jews with whips, clubs, and grades. The Germans closed and the remainder unmasked.
The news reporters vouched for the episode in "an eye witness account of the torture and killings" of German Jews.
London, Nov. 21—(UP) —The London New Chronicle said today that of a 19 group of 62 wealthy Jews allegedly were beaten to death when made to run a gunitet of "black" men at a German concentration camp.
"The police officer approached the leader of the trouppers and asked less passage. He was met with the crowd to deliver the hostages on the spot.
"Thereupon the Jews were made to run a gantlet of shock troops. As they approached between the ramsa a hail of blows feel on them, Police, unable to bear the cries turned their laaks in they fell. The Jews were beaten further. The beating lasted half an hour, then other prisoners were ordered to carry them away.
"Twelve of the 62 were dead wih broken skulls, all the others were unconscious, most of them horribly beaten.
"The leader of the shock troopers handed a receipt to the police officer to show he had delivered the money. The police returned back to Berlin."

The First Thanksgiving Day --- 1621
Jayhawk Rooters Have Cawed for 48 Years
Bv Lillian Fisher. c'41
BY Lafontain Freney, c. 14
A special train en route to the first annual Missouri-Kansas football game left the Safe Station 8 hours ago with approximately two hundred loyal, enthusiastic two-coach only went to Kansas City. Mo—the game being played in neutral territory so that each team would have an equal amount of supporters. But according to Prof. E. M. Hopkins, then manager of the team, the Kansas roots had the edge in volume of yelling.
From 1801 to 1906 Kansas City was the scene of the games, and then in 1907, the game was shifted to St. Joseph, Mo. This move was not successful, however, and the game went back to Kansas City for the season. The final game was played on one of the campuses that was in 1911 at Columbia.
When the little two-drive whee
engine of 1891 arrived in the "big
city" after a two-hour trip, a raily
of the students, alumni, and friends
was staged on Twelfth street. The
noisy and bloated crowd yelled,
"Rock Chalk, Joy Hawk!" frequently.
But they did that we can't
Thus it was, that in 1891, a football rivalry began that will be renewed tomorrow. Thanksgiving Day, when the Kansas Jayhawkers and the Missouri Tigers meet on the Tiger gridiron. Kansas had its first football team in 1890, and the following year saw the Jayhawkers tangle with the Tigers for the first time. The two teams have played every year since then with the single exception of 1918.
Game at Columbia in 1911
In this first historic football feud, in the Jawhackers triumphed over the Tigers by the wide margin of 22-8. The game was the who's thing as in baseball, not the band to perform at the half, and Jack Nesley card displays to watch.
do successfully today. They staged a rally without the aid of the band. The University band had not been organized at that time. Tenight a similar rally will be held in the Union station, but the band will the nucleus for the pep of the 1938 roots.
Kansas has almost a 2-1 advantage in points scored during the long rivalry. The Jayhawks have rallied up a total of 500 points while the Tigers have scored 287. In eight of the games Kansas has scored more than 20 points, while Missouri has accomplished that feat only once.
Following the game, the teams returned to the Midland hotel, where the big sum of $300, the total receipts of the game, were divided. Thus the University athletic treasury was raised to $150. This money was brought back to Lawrence and deposited in the safe of Woodward's Drug store, now known as the Round Corner Drug store.
The Jayhawks handed the Tigers a 32-0 defeat in 1930 for Kansas's most decisive victory in the history of the rivalry. Missouri's largest margin of victory was a 25-6 win in 1928. Kansas has played more tigles with Missouri than with any other team, but Kansas won 0-9 contests, two of them finished 3-3, one was 5-5, and the seventh was 6-6.
