LAKE TOWN, LOS ANGELES BAN FRANCISCO LOS ANGELES Entered as second-class matter, September 17, 1910, at the postoffice at Lawrence, Kan. All Knowledge Is Not From Books As freshmen and prospective students, we enter a final weaning process! We discover ourselves emotionally disturbed as we pack the last pair of shoe laces, cross the familiar threshold, and, with a lump crowding our adam's apple, climb into the car to leave the old home town. And down the line at Lawrence in Douglas county, the University has lost its golden aura. No longer do we see the halo of promised parties and dances ahead. Instead we think of friends who go elsewhere, of parents left at home. Once, indeed, we were sheltered children! But cleaving from this former cloistered existence, we stand on our number 10's. At first, like a young pup learning to walk, we wobble and stagger, groping for a substantial footing. Before many moons pass, however, we find "murseries picking our own neckties with dexterity, budgeting our pocketbooks so that with monetary additions it'll balance, shooping off pestiferous salesmen, and knowing that a continuous string of apple pie a la modes are not the foods on which students live and learn. In short, we have successfully traveled the rocky path of adjustment. We fend for ourselves. Health Service Expands Once an idea but now a dramatic reality, the University health service expands its scope until now the medical staff with modern equipment efficiently guards the health of approximately 5,000 University students. Of the student population last year 85.% visited the hospital for an average of 128 visits a day or 33,750 for both semesters. Of these 1,319 elected to stay, either through choice or through the force of circumstances; for instance, many thought a cold an inconvenient accessory while in other cases the health authorities forbade students dotted with measles to attend classes. Increased to a 62-bed capacity, the hospital houses this year a larger staff. Three doctors, one a woman, an interne, a full-time pharmacist, two X-ray technicians, a part-time psychiatrist and nurses force competently handle the increasing student visits. Among the many services the health service offers free Wasserman tests and the addition of a part-time psychiatrist will aid those students advised by Dr. R. K. Camteness in readjusting themselves to college life. For these services the $5 health fee is a cheap doctor's bill. Few students before entering the University could command such facilities. Independents Forge Ahead The Independent Students Organization — a new departure in organized campus activities — will be in full swing on the Hill this fall for students who do not intend to pledge either a fraternity or a sorority. This new group, founded on the campus last fall and a unit of a nation-wide organization of non-fraternity men and women, has the active support of the University administration. The organization grew as the result of a demand for a wider field of social and athletic activities for independent students. Last year it's plans were mostly formulative but having gained the support of the school authorities who knew the need that such an organization would fill, the Independents are preparing a large and varied program for the 1938-1939 school year. Among the different activities planned are one hour dances every few weeks, two formals during the year, intramural athletic contests, and participation in Homecoming and Commencement events. An Independent day celebration is also planned for the early fall. The national convention held at the University of Oklahoma last spring honored the local unit by selecting it as host for the 1839 convention which will be held on the Campus during the spring semester. At other schools the Independent movement has grown rapidly and is taking an increasing part in school life. Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Washburn all have units which serve an important need for students not connected with organized houses. With the active support of new students this fall, the local organization can play as great a role on Mount Oread this year.
