'Wolves' Howls' Did Not Spoil the Game
Do "howls of the wolves" shatter a football team's morale? Or does it jell and crystallize into a vindication so that team and coaching staff bear lightly the burden of the heavy end of a lop-sided score? And is student support scattered, lost among the despondent "howls"?
In the game with traditional rivals at Manhattan. Saturday, the Jayhawkers, both students and team, dramatically demonstrated at least in one clash that criticism did not break down the winning spirit.
But morale is intangible, as fleeting and unpredictable as the winds, and upon the coach, not on criticism, rests the thankless task of constantly fanning the flames that burn opponents to a crisp. And upon the foundation of his success or failure through the years, student support, as well as that of the alumni and fans measured at the box office, normally floods and ebbs.
Splashing an ear into the "obbing tide" of K. U. sentiment, no doubt at flood stage now, the Kansas State Collegian Friday in a front page editorial titled "Let's Not Be Fooled," predicted with startling insight the outcome. The prognostication, omniscient to the extent of defining motives, though erroneously, read in part:
"We believe, as do many other persons on the K-State Campus, that the whole scheme is a deliberate attempt to incite the University team and student body to a fighting fury, an attempt to build a belligency that will be unleashed against the K-State squad."
Adding authenticity and authority to the opinion, Coach Wes Fry, indubitably unprepared, was quoted:
"We believe they are attempting to whip the team into a fighting mood for Saturday's game and we are prepared."
So far, our critical attitude, indicted in news dispatches, has been cited in a left-handed manner as the causing factor. Wishing to take none of the credit, we gladly heap praise on the team, especially seven seniors who have seen Kansas defecated by K-State the last two years. However, we wish they had possessed the foresight to have bolstered morale or the coaches had applied similar psychology, if that was all that was lacking, at the season's inception.
Nevertheless, mid-season "wolves" howls' destroyed neither team morale nor student support Saturday. The score proves the former, the K. U. attendance the latter.
Now Is Your Chance To Support the Band
In appealing to the student body for funds to finance a trip to Washington, D. C. for the band, the supporters of the drive are giving YOU a chance to show your appreciation in a definite way.
And you cannot fail. The "boys in blue" are never behind a haystack fast asleep when you want to rally, when you want to sing at convocation, when you want to parade down Massachusetts.
This is your chance. You may not get another while you are in school. The band deserves your support.
You may cheer the band as it marches in Memorial stadium; you may applaud its concerts in Hoch auditorium. True appreciation, however, is more than that. Real gratitude will be reflected in the way you meet this test of your appreciation.
What Would Happen In Actual Warfare?
Sunday evening the Columbia Broadcasting system presented Orson Wells and his Mercury Theater—and fifteen minutes later thousands of persons in the eastern part of the United States were panic-striken, and westerners themselves were apprehensive of their own safety.
Why? Indirectly, because the Mercury radio program depicting an invasion of the United States by inhabitants of Mars was so realistic. Directly, because Americans are such chumps.
Explosions in Jersey, horrible killings in New York, dead estimated at from 40 to 7,000—all these announcements which were delivered by rapid fire news announcers served to instill in Americans the greatest panic of many a moon.
Police department switchboards were clogged with calls from fearful citizens and newspapers were swamped with hopeful inquiries. Even doctors and nurses and public officials called to the city hall, offering their services in the crisis.
Such panic might be justified if there hadn't been a joker in the bag. Four times during the program, an announcer interrupted to announce: "This is purely a fictious broadcast." And yet public hysteria reached the state
Comment
where eye witnesses to the "invasion" could be found. Again, why? Again, because Americans are such chumps.
An American can be told that there is no ghost in the park, but if he sees a car's headlights shining on the trees he assumes that the ghost is real. An American can be told that he is being fooled, but if the hoax is dramatic enough, fancy becomes reality for him. An American's imagination can turn black to white in the twinkling of an eye.
Can this gullibility of the American public be the result of being fooled too many times in public and business life, of being hoaxed by politicians who guise as statesmen? Can this easily excitable fear be the aftermath of the many fears which have permeated the country in the past ten years, economic fears? What would happen in actual warfare? One only knows that too large a proportion of our citizens were afraid Sunday night.
Perhaps it has 'come to the place where Americans like to be fooled and mislead. Perhaps being fooled is a pleasant way to avoid reality. Perhaps fear of the unknown is still the greatest fear in the world.
'Far Above The Golden Valley'
At no other time of the year is the Alm Mater TIE Alma Mater so much as it is now during the football season. Look south to the Wakarausa or north to the Kaw and you will see the sight of surpassing beauty that inspired some one to write;
"Far above the golden valley
Glorious to view."
A hundred different shades of yellow can hence the beauty of a forest of trees and here and there a splatch of red or rich deep brown adds more color to the scene. All in all it makes the valleys around Mount Oread as colorful and intricately beautiful as any Gobelin tap estry.
And this week, of all weeks, our noble Alma Mater really stands above the valley, towering toward the blue. There is a spirit in the air this week that defines definition; a spirit that comes from a lip-smacking victory over an old and traditional enemy; a spirit that shows the value of a winning football team.
So, all in all, the Alma Mater song is in full force and effect all week and if you want to whistle it as you walk to school, you'll be for-given or perhaps even encouraged.

Professor Wiley and the Band Boys In a Dither Over Washington Trip
Prof. Russell L. Wiley, director of, the Concert Band, yesterday was so excited about going, that he had the telephone receiver to his ear for nearly an hour and kept mumbling "Where's Clarkshire?" Where's Clarkshire?"
but decided they could not let more vocal students "steal their stuff" so—the band is going to Washington to rehearse with Sevahoe听他的secretary, and secretaries.
Musicians are funny people. When Mrs. Roeveelt was here, the Men's Club g歌唱 for her. The usual hospitable hand did not play for her.
Clayton Krebiel, a freeman, who plays the cornet, has never been East. He lives at Blue Ridge Kan, where there is evidently a cherished "swimming hole," because when asked what he thought the Potomac river would be like he said, "I expect the Potomac to be a little bigger than 'Turkey criek', but it won't be as 'purty.'"
In between words on the telephone Professor Wiley says, "It's a great thing! The main points of interest will be see M. Vernon (George Washington's home), the Library of Congress, the White House, the Capital, the Smithsonian Institute, the Marine band room, and the United States government mint. It is hoped that the President will be in Washington and that the band boys will meet him personally."
Kenneth Shook, bask, bass clarinet player, sticks up for his home folks too, when he says, "It's a good chance for the boys to see the East. I am anxious to go. I think the scenery between here and Washington will be much different from the Kansas prairies. In Washington I expect to
'New Utopia to Save Us'— Satirical Plan on Ham and Eggs'
Here is a new scheme which will transform the rolling plains of Eastern Kauai into a twentyth century heaven, the arid plains of Western Hawaiia. The answer is that it is known simply as NUTS - New Utopia To Save-us.
This startling new innovation will give to every person (provided he or she is white, Negro, Indian, Christian, Mohammaden, or sunburned) the sum of $277.84 on every day of the calendar year. The method of financing and operating this plan is surprisingly simple.
By Vincent Davis, c'uncl.
A separate sub-capital would be set up at Lawrence to cope with the minor requirements of such a plan. The Bureau of Co-ordination would be in complete control of the NUTS. Its main function would be to prevent armed hostilities between officials of the various bureauals.
The Bureau of Script would spend Tuesday and Thursday collecting used meal-tickets from over the state, these tickets to be used as script. Each Wednesday noon, persons in possession of these tickets would be forced by law to place a piece of paper over one of the pushed-out holes.
The lucky individual who has one of these tickets after all the holes have been patched up can turn it in at the nearest cafe for a ticket good for $5 worth of meals. In turn, the customer must pass over ticket to the state government in lieu of his sales tax payment for the month.
Separate Capital
In this way the citizens of Kansas will get free food, the cafe owners get free sales tax exemptions, and the public would get a new supply of um
The president of the band, french horn artist and field major, Bob Hamelpel, says, "I had known about it for a long time, and I watched the many obstacles meet defeat.

see more hills and a mixture of people, but I do not think I will find them as friendly and nice as they are here."
"I hope we go through the Mint!" says magician Jack Dalby who also blaws a baritone horn and twirls a silver lion. "My first reaction was—It's a dream." Now I think 'Boy, oh, boy!'
Victories do have their disadvantages. The sentiments inspired by a game even as exciting as the one at Manhattan sometimes aren't worth it. It's all that instance Flint Hills Peggy of The Topa Capital commented as follows:
Ricketts, Shannon, plays the guitar. Rockefeller plays the clarinet who has lived in Washington, says, "I think TI get just as much of the trip as the other boys, but I will be a little more home. I might even get more of a thrill. Anyway, I hope we win the football game; I do all the yelling you can."
One authority credits the K.U. victory to the emotional prayer-meeting staged by the seven Joyhawksen supporters of the movie, looking the Chancellor pek talk?
"No one could have failed to receive a thrill at the game. It is always so satisfying when the poor little ragged barefoot country boy in the story triumphs over the self-assured, warmly clothed kid from town." Never did we think we'd see the day when anyone would use our gilded Alma Mater for such an ignoble comparison.
notes and discords
Harry Stuckenbruck, clarinet player and treasureur of the organization, when asked how he felt when he heard he was going for sure, spontaneously exclaimed, "I won't be able to see Lucilia over the weekend." He also added, "It means a lot of hard work before and after the trip, but then that makes it better when we do go."

punched meal tickets which would be punched out, thus replenishing the supply of punched-out tickets which would be needed to carry on NUTS. If a shortage of meal tickets would have street car transfers may be used.
The Bureau of Secret Stuff will be manned by publicity writers and gummen, whose duties would encompass intimidating the state supreme court so the NUTS would not be declared unconstitutional. (Only by a law passed in congressuation could the plan be conceived as unconstitutional, however.)
Only one other of the 347 bureaue necessary to NUTS need be discussed here, and that is the Bureau of Red Ink. This bureaue would keep track of the profit made by the state of Kansas through increased purchasing power afforded the citizens by NUTS. The other 348 bureaue with a certain amount of apportionment of all powers, would handle the few remaining duties.
In addition, this bureau would get a corner on the sales tax tokens in Utah, then sell these tokens back to the Utah state government at two cents a piece. The funds derived from this source would be used to support the Bureau of Script.
**REQUIRED INCLUDES:**
With economic conditions what they are, whatever they are, something needs must be done—and quickly. NUTS is the answer to a politician's prayer. Since the writer of these lines does not graduate until next June, it is hoped that some man of vision and foresight will get into politics and adopt this plan as his own gift to Kansas. NUTS will guarantee the election of any man to any office.
In short, the plan is simply the NUTS.
The ubiquitous Harry Hill claims that the reason Sing Sings wants to schedule a game with West Point is that the pen is noisier than the sword.
Heywood Broun, formerly America's leading pacifist, is now whooping things up in his column for a greater army and navy. Not content with that, he insists that the CCC be militarized and the national guard be trained to defend the Broun for many years, but we are warning him that when he tries to arm the Boy Scouts we're going to quit reading his column.
This department is willing to make a small wager—say a short time against a tall chocolate coke that the mass hairstyle engendered by the Orson Welles broadcast will prove to be the biggest free public hoax since the famous Mae West-Adam and Eve skit.
But we hasten to warn the guillible who were upset by the dramatized visit of the Martinian war hordes Sunday night that the "On to Washington" campaign is not an attempt to capture the nation's capital.
