Education Faces Test Says Judge
NUMBER 25
Colleges M a s t S Supply
Students With Proper
Spirit, Attitude, Wedell
Tells Parents
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1938
A justice of the Kansas state supreme court last night handed down the opinion that the test facing education today is whether colleges and universities can supply their students not only information and data but also spiritual attitudes to aid them in facing the problems of the world.
"I am convinced," sait Judge Hugo T. Wedell, 120, that the mere supplying of data and facts to the mind of a student is not enough. Without spiritual background there is no successful education."
Justice Wedel, himself a parent, University alumnus, and former faculty member, emphasized the importance of proper education in a civilized world with: "The greatest and most paramount issue before humanity today is this: to provide children with a safe creed and to develop the proper spirit and proper attitudes on the part of the individual to the problems of life."
And from more than 350 fathers mothers, students and faculty members who attended the twenty-sec
Speaking as a parent, the jurist pointed out the tremendous interest of fathers and mothers in the University. He said parents are not connected with the institution might employ, but the results which are produced.
"In that interest," Justice Wedel declared, "we find mutual ground with the faculty. We believe the teachers are the result of their efforts."
"A great university should and does feel the tremendous importance of assisting young, rambling
gaping life to find its particular bent. Had I the ability to take a group of young people such as are in this Campus, we would be suited for which they are best fitted, I would resign from the bench tonight."
In concluding, Justice Wedell placed the responsibility for education equally upon the shoulders of parents and teachers, challenging the assembled fathers and mothers "to co-operate in the output, product, result that will go out from them to the problems of today successfully."

Skirts Will Swing
At Gingham Folic;
No Men Wanted
Skirts will swing when girl meets girl at the Gingham Fling Wednesday afternoon from 4 to 5.30 in the Memorial Union ballroom. This dance, sponsored by the W.Y.C.A. and W.S.G.A., was instituted several years ago. Since then it has become an opportunity for weavers of sorority pins to mingle with independent students.
Betsy Jane Boddington, c'40, and Loulie McVey, f'a39, are co-chairmen of the committee for all arrangements. They have announced that Louie Kuhn and his band will furnish dancing rhythm for this all-woman varsity. In addition to the routine dancing, there will be two specially numbers by Ann Rightwell, m'a40, and D J Wiltsace, off-the-cuff numbers, in true collegiate fashion, a "jitterbug" routine. For the more conservative, there will be an exhibition of the Lambeth Walk.
Admission will be five cents to cover costs of the band and of the cider which will be served. Gevene Landrith, c30, president of the W. KCA, c40, president of the Y.W.CA, urge all women to attend.

Editors Meet To Discuss Own Problems
W. Neibarger I Elected
Chairman and Conducts
Roundtables; Are Guests
At Football Game
One hundred and one registered guests of the department of journalism left for their homes in Kansas yesterday evening after spending the morning discussing their editorial problems and the afternoon watching Oklahoma manpower Kansas 19 to 0.
Walter Niebarger, editor and publisher of the Tonganoei Mirror was elected chairman of the group and conducted the discussions on the amount of publicity that should be made to prevent adverse legalization, on social security and unemployment taxes and on shop problems.
Kirke Mechem, of the State Historical Society attended the conference and extended an invitation to a meeting Tuesday, which will display old Kansas newspapers still visible on campus. This display will be in Topeka.
Senator Jesse Denius of Dodge City, chairman of the Ways and Means committee in the state legislature, was asked about the feeling towards newspapers in the legislature. He replied that there is a great deal of sentiment against newspapers. Most congressmen want to cripple the papers who did not support their candidacy.
Following the morning discussions the editors and their wives were the guesses of the Athletic depart- at the Parents Day football game.

Speaking of lines, the Kansas boys were making the Sooners fight for all they got. In sports, the Jayhawk forward wall looked the best it has this season, but in between spurs, Oklahoma did too much spurting. We may be prejudiced if we were picking an outstanding lineman for the game we step forward. Warren was in on most of the tackles, and played all but a few minutes, Nordstrom of K-State and Brock of Nebraska are going to have start piling all their press notices to keep Warren off that all star team. . . Massare was in there
Sooner Powerhouse Rolls Over Jayhawks, 19-0
The Kansas passers weren't clicking partly due to inability of receivers to hold onto the ball, and partly because the passers had a little too much power behind their heaves. Miller, Bunsen and Repogle were doing a nice hunk of ball lugging, and defensive work too. Sullivant and Meier did their share of tackling while they were in there.
Freshman Council Names Temporary Officers
The Freshman Council, the only self-governing freshman body of the Hill, met and elected temporary officers Thursday afternoon.
Game Highlights In Review
1. Intervened in the Hungarian- Czech minority dispute to force another attempt at a peaceful settlement.
Temporarily, until the Council is officially organized, the officers are Bill Miller, president; George Kettner, vice-president; Dave Water-mulder, secretary-treasurer; and Lloyd Estes, publicity chairman.
Hitler Still Unsatisfied
By Bill Fitzgerald, c 39 Bill Hargis wasn't fooling when he said "Okhahma really is this year. The Soooms are big and have plenty of reserves. The rest of the Big Six is in for a few headaches before they can count Tom Stidham's team out of the championship running. . . . Rogers and McCarty, two speed merchants, perhaps did the most damage yesterday had to help from MeCaddy, Cowder, Corrotty, Seymour and that massive Oklahma line.

Berlin, Oct. 15. - (UP) - Nazi Germany began her new economic, political and military prestige on Central Europe tonight. In a series of swift developments the government of Adolph Hitler demonstrated that its annexation of the Studentenland was only a beginning.

secretary, discussed formulating

scraping, but then so was the rest of the Kansas line and they were doing it against superior man power. . . We weafed out that Waddy Young, big Oklahoma end, at least wasn't invincible, and the Jayhawks made several good gains around his end. Maybe it was an off day. . . And don't think Kansas didn't miss Ferrel Anderson in the line.
But the Nazi activities did not end with Central Europe. Hitler told Brazil to withdraw her ambassador to Germany because of Rio de Janeiro's hostility to Nazi activities, and the controlled German press made a bitter attack on Bernard Baruch, American financier and various British advocates of rearmments.
5. Banned Jewish lawyers from the Reich, effective Nov. 30.
6. Ordered Czech citizens, especially Czech Jews, out of Vienna and German territory.
It looked as though the Lindsey lads might have the big Sooners on a temporary run in the second quarter. The Jayhawkers had the ball on the Sooner 13, first down, but on the first play Miller fumbled and Oklahoma recovered. A touchdown at that point might have made a different story out of the whole affair.
Chancellor and Mrs. Lindley To Receive Faculty Thursday
Chancelor and Mrs. E. H. Lindley will give a reception to the facillion of the University Thursday evening in the clock in Spooner-Thayer Museum.
We only hope the Jayhaws keep up their policy of winning every other game when they go to Ames this coming Saturday. Then they can forget the custom and drop K-State out of the picture the next Saturday if they want to. (That is, if they want to badly enough to overcome the Wildcats objections, which are always very strenuous). Maybe we should quit the Big Siz nad join the Southwest Conference. The competition doesn't seem to be so strong down there.
stunt of the Oklahoma band went over big, Jack Nessley and assistants, including some one thousand students, deserve a hand for their card display which is becoming better every game, despite lack of any practice. The card team could have used a few reserves when some of members were away to play, colleen had a few plays, but the飞翔 Hawkeye and travelling Sooner covered wagon were the best we've seen yet.
Oklahoma, which ranked fifteenth nationally last week, should shoot up the ladder, after yesterday's loss to the Cleveland. Missouri, the first 20 after dropping Missouri

Plan For Big Homecoming Celebration Will Include Rally and Torchlight Parade Nov. 4
Lindseymen Penetrate Deep Into Territory Three Times But Fumbles and Stout Oklahoma Line Stop All Threats; Red and White Team Displays Smashing Ground Attack
Plans for the Homecoming celebration, to be held the weekend of Nov. 4-5, are taking shape at the University. Within a short time, the University of Kansas Newsletters will go out to the thousands of alumni all over—and out of—the country, inviting them to age and take part in the "big dino'in", the main feature of which will be the football game with the Corn-huskers from Nebraska.
Tentative plans for the weekkeen include the traditional torchlight parade and rally the night before Defino plans for these activities in 2015. The next weekend and for the prizes to be awarded will be made in the near future.
There will be a big rally on Friday evening, with torch-lighters, band, Ku Ku's, Jay Jones, and fan old and young H. J. Hanna, Lawrence business man, is chairman of the rally committee, as he has been or the past three years. Manable for the great success of previous rallies and this year looks like a "better-han ever" for the ralliers.
The W.S.G.A. and Jay James will have charge of registration facilities for the alumni in the Memorial Union building, which will be the center of the reunions—when the stadium is not. Entertainment will be provided in the building, including a dance on Friday night and a Varsity on Saturday evening following the game.
Articles by Students Published in Magazine
Arrangements for Hobo Day have not yet been made, but the activities of this day are always among outstanding features of the celebration.
The current issue of "The Intercollegian" carries two articles written by University students.
A huge Oklahoma powerhouse battered the game but outclassed Jayhawkers into submission yesterday in Memorial stadium before a crowd of 11,000 Parents' Day fans, by a score of 19 to 0. The scrappy Kansans, outweighed 20 pounds to the man in the line and weakened by injuries, gave ground grudgingly, but the titanic Sooners would not be denied and swept through for a touchdown in each of the first, third, and final quarters.

Sooners' 20-yard line. Meanwhile their opponents were piling up a total of 241 yards from scrimmage on straight power football.
The Jayhawkers' inability to score was characterized by the impunity of their running attack, which also affected their aerial game by making it impossible to "mix 'em up."
Early in the first quarter with the wind at its back Oklahoma drove the dykhawkers back into their own territory. They were able to speed, hard-drive Howard Me-

Carly, and alternate thrusts by quarterback Hugh McCullough. The latter, a terror to the Kansas team all afternoon with his passing, punting and plugging, catapulted through the finish line and the first score of the ball game.
The Crimson and Blue came back gamely in the second period after another Sooner drive ended with an attempted field goal from the 18-yard stripe. The Kansas, spearheaded by Ralph Miller, drove down the field from their own 20-yard line to the Oklahoma 21, a series of spinners, short passes, and an end run. The threat ended abruptly when Rogers intercepted Miller's on his own five and ran back to the 40, where he helped Mckel recovered again after
