PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS MONDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1928 Kansan Comment The Goods Received May Not Be Worth the Price If the Parents' day advice of Justice Hugo Wedell that an education is more than just information, data, facts, is followed, the problem of the working student must be solved first. In an institution which provides for a "fully-rounded" course of study, there are hundreds of students who are unable to take advantage of the broad extra-curricular program because they must earn all or part of their college expenses. Through the depression years, in an effort to show the University was not a playboy's paradise, encouragement was given the working student. As a result, many ambitious young men come to Lawrence with barely enough money for fees. They believed they could get a job to finance a college education. Some succeeded, others didn't. The successful were pointed out as men who really know what an education is. No doubt, they did. While it is admirable to encourage young people with limited financial backing to attempt to get a college education at any cost, this sort of encouragement can be carried too far. Admitting the cost of four years at the University is comparatively small, and that more than 50 percent of the student body is either wholly or partially self-supporting, it must be pointed out that he who works his way may pay a certain price. That price, too often, is the inability to get more than information, data, facts, or even impairment of health. More than 800 students made application for the 360 available NYA jobs this year. Only 294 men have found either steady or sporadic employment, out of more than 600 who registered at the employment bureau. Sympathy naturally falls with those who could not be placed. The successful applicants, however, have far from a rosy future. The student who is constantly faced with the necessity of making ends meet cannot do full justice to his course and many times is unable to enjoy any of the various extra-curricular activities. It would be better, then, to emphasize the difficulty of working one's way through college. If an education consists only in faithful scrutiny of books, a student can educate himself at home—through correspondence courses for example. If an education consists, as Justice Wedell believes, in acquiring spiritual attitudes as well, then the prospective working student should be warned in advanced. He should be warned that he cannot take full advantage of his curricular and extra-curricular opportunities if he must work day and night to keep his budget from being warped out of proportion. Hitler thinks Czechoslovakia should give up its military alliance with Russia. Hitler can't understand why anyone would want to have a treaty with a country uncivilized enough to think of keeping it. He Saw What Fools These Mortals Be With the death of E. C. Segar, creator of the comic strip character Popeye the Sailor, dies a satirist of American hero worship, pan-handling, and other typical customs. Scrawny and pugnacious, with balloon-like forearms, the Sailor-man, Popeye, born in 1929, soon had followers from coast to coast and his he-man antics for his love, Olive Oil, were published in 500 newspapers. It was after the King features syndicate of New York had sought his services that Segar created his "Thimble Theater" with Olive Oyl and Ham Gravey, its first actors. Later he added Castor Oyl and Ma Oyl to his cast. Future generations may see in Segar's Popeye the Saylor strip a satirical but humorous treatment of the human weaknesses and idiosyncrasies. After completing a twenty-dollar correspondence course in drawing, Segar worked on the Chicago Herald. Two years later he went to the Chicago American where from 1917 to 1919 he drew a local strip entitled "Looping the Loan." John L. Lewis says he will resign as head of the C. I. L. if William Green will resign as president of the A. F. of L. The boys could then "meet each other out in back." Football and Hokum On the Bill of Fare Hokum hits the football field. Football remains the feature of Saturday afternoons, but the supporter of the losing team can always turn to the booster of the opposite camp and say, "At least our band outplayed yours." New to these parts was the flag waving stunt of the six flag waivers with the Oklahoma band. Each banner carried the initial letter of schools in the Big Six, waved in the strong south wind in time to the music, tossed into the air, furled and unfurled. Incidentally, flag waving isn't new to the world for the Swiss folks have waved flags in their Alpine retreats using bright red silk banners and whipping them through the air at such a rate that they look like streaks of flame. Card displays staged by Kansas rootters drew much comment from fans on the west side of the stadium. Extra fancy and showy was the Jayhawk which flapped its wings and the Sooner Schooner that moved majestically, though jerky, across the blue and red cards. The Kansas band staged a good show too, though the boys' leg work could be more precise. Their ballet-dancing-marching to Rachmaninoff's "Prelude in C Sharp Minor" gave the crowd a good laugh. But the moral of this little lecture is that a football game is no longer just a football game. With the assistance of bands, cheer leaders and inebriated alumni and fans, it equals the "Big Top" in entertainment. The Japanese open an offensive against Canton. They apparently want to send their troops south for the winter. A special board of inquiry of the immigration authorities won't allow John Strachey to enter the United States. Apparently it was afraid he might become contaminated by Republicans.

They sit before low tables, each equipped with a blue light bulb covered with a makehift metal shade. Each is within hands' reach. In the search for a search site to put his feet. Every inch of space is utilized Only a narrow margin of aisle follows the walls of the room. Three students work under the hood designed to carry off chemical fumes. Sitting on uncomfortable stools they hunch over their microscopes or crane their necks for a glimpse of the professor in the front of the room. Perhaps, if they weren't so engrossed in their work, they might notice the dismissance of this low frame structure west of the library, which was formerly used as a cafeteria. Perhaps they're accustomed to it. The department has been temporarily housed there for six years—ever the closing of Dyche Museum necessitated a move. But acceptance or resignation—whatever their attitudes—they all admit the crying need for a new Medical building. Since the present one is not firefighting a real risk in the environment, $30,000 inventory of models, charts, and microscopic collects. This equipment has been accumulated during a period of 20 years, and some of it cannot be replaced. There are no recitation or lec- notes and discords From the University of Minnesota comes the sad case of a fine arts student who wished a certain song played at a party but was unable to find it in the musical index He wrote. The title of the song "Would God I Were a Tender Apple." He had been looking for "God, I Wish I Was an Apple Tree." Nothing so assures one that the world is full of sweetness and life as does the reading of the editors in the high school exchanges. And nothing so convinces one that the world is on the verge of destruction as does the reading of the editors in the college exchanges. College life as exemplified in the Syracuse Daily Orange. "G'r I Wanted—will the girl who called The Daily Orange offices yesterday morning and told the editor that he was 'un absurd idiot,' please report to the workshop tomorrow to think she has a lovely voice." Our past we always considered blameless, but we have just concluded that once unknowingly we harmed the proof reader for the Kansan. Because for some reason the gentleman into whose hands we nightly commend our column seems to take a perverse delight in shuffling sentences across, omitting important words, or adding a flock of comical jokes. But but a burdering desire for revenge for some unpardonable act could cause him to exact such dire penalty on his copy. Therefore for any misdeed we may have committed against him in the past and for any we may commit in the future, we now offer public penance, Pardon, ooh, proof-reader of renown; let drop a little mercy with rain; A feature story in Sunday's Kansan mentioned the 1915 Editorial meeting held at the University at which William Allen White was in attendance. "It was about that time," the story said, "that White wrote his famous couple, Joseph and Carson."

Because of this much available illustrative material cannot be used, instructional efficiency is made more difficult because the department is under-staffed. There are just two full classrooms and there are programs are so scarced and limited that research and private study are carried on under hardship. A year ago the Council of Medical Education of the American Medical Association made an inspection tour of 63 schools in the United States. Although the school here has formerly received an "A" rating, the overcrowding and lack of facilities not only in the anatomy department but in physiology and biochemistry, may have an unfavorable effect on studenting. The physical facilities of the anatomy department were found to be in the lower 30 percent of all schools in the country. Tomorrow morning may be a bright day with a high wind in the south. The gray building, which University officials once had planned to have razed but installed the anatomy department there instead, may go up in flames within half an hour after a great fall wind with dust blowing in from the parking lot and with 90 white-dued students cramped in the dissecting room, the only other laboratory in the building.

People in nearby booths were wishing the girls were as extinct as last year's dance craze when they began making snowmobiles of open palettes and throwing them ground. The Beta yard is all torn up these days because workmen are installing indoor plumbing. Since the boys are modernizing, one just naturally supposes that they will continue to build the old place for several years yet. Decorations at the Phi Gum tacky party last weekend were just a bit on the risk-gay side to the fellers say. In fact, some of the murals were evidently rejected by Esquire for moral reasons. Don Wood got off to a bang-up start as student dance manager with the O.K. varisty Saturday night. A better than average crowd remained even after the Oklahoma children went home. Several of the Stooner bard boys had put themselves in a mood for a show by lying on their in the lounge before migrating to the ballroom. But our own girls do things almost as bad at the Puff Pant From, so maybe we shouldn't talk. A five dollar fine is imposed on anybody caught plucking Campus geraniums, so people like to pluck them just for the heck of it. But when they are spaded up in the fall and hauled away by the truck-load, are free just for the asking. This year there were just two askers—Professor Crafton and the Triangle fraternity boys. Who says the hairy cared engineers ain't lovers of the aesthetic? With improvement in the market for metals as reflected in rising prices and increased employment, there is a demand for metallurgical engineers. Prof E. D. Kimey of the mining industry suggests that not only are all graduates placed, but currently the demand exceeds the supply. Demand Exceeds Supply For Mining Engineers In some cases salaries operate on a sliding scale depending on the price of metals.
