Nobel Prize Winner To Speak
Sinclair Lewis To Open University Community Lecture Course N e x t Tuesday Night
Sinclair Lewis, well-known novelist, will speak in Hoch auditorium Tuesday as the first attraction of the University community lecture "The Novelist Will be the Novelist as Profit," and the lecture will begin at 8:20 p.m.
Mr. Lewis was the first American to win the Nobel prize for literature, which he was awarded in 1930. His novel, "Arrowsmith," was awarded the Pulitzer price of $1,000, but he did not come to an agreement with the donors on terms and returned the money.
Lewis was born in the small town of Sauk Center, Minn., in the heart of the agricultural country. His novel, "Mainstreet," which was one of the most popular novels of 1920, was written about the small town life with which he was so well acquainted.
Educated at Yale
Some of his other novels which have been widely read are "Babbit," "Elmer Gantry," "Dodworth," and "It Can't Happen Here."
The author received his college education at Yale, and after graduation worked for a few years on newspapers and writing short stories.
After producing his first novel "Our Mr. Wren," his progress was rapid. At this time he was writing adventure stories, but later turned to the sociological problems on most of his later books are based.
Was Here in 1926
He has recently written a book which has not been published yet. It is said that he has for the time being given up novel writing and expects to write plays. A new play by him, "Publish Glad Tidings", is completed, but has not been published or presented on the stage.
Students will be admitted to the lecture on presentation of their activity tickets. Reserved seat tickets will be sold for 50 cents, plus tax and general admission will be 25 cents, plus tax.
Mr. Lewis visited the University in 1926. At that time he spent some time in studying the "Dove," and made a substance called conti-ria publication.
on the SHIN by Don Hays
More "Big Apple" comment: They probably call the new dance craze the "Big Apple" because it takes a little more effort, and only an Alpha Chi could explain it.
"Clever" was the word for Axe. Anderson when he came to the rescue of "Spigit" Willis in helping him solve the question of what to wear to the Halloween masquerade ball. Anderson could only one long look at "Spigit". Anderson could suggest only one thing—"put a cap on and go as a beer bottle!"
LAWRENCE, KANSAS. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1937
Then there's the one about the local psychology professor who, in his haste to catch an outgoing train, ran into the wrong entrance and after much confusion discovered that he was in the ladies' rest station.
Some "Campus slangage" that has been handed down to us:
Wife—steady galfriend
Wackchop—same as wangdaff.
Wangdaff—a guy what is nuts.
Wangdaff a guy what is nuts.
Harbor lights—a frand which
Harbor lights—a frand which I nuts. You know, ships that pass in the night, lost in a fog, etc.
Pussyreed—something not to be like a pussy willow.
Mop—a guy what can stand at most, two beers.
Barrag—a guy what can stand at most, one beer.
Which all proves that the Shin is more right than wrong . . . From all indications in the library last night Dennie Lemire wrestled the football practicing the daily football practices at the stadium . . . at any rate the climax came last night

Henry Makes Debut
New Athletic Director Speaks at Short Rally Yesterday
"You hate to lose football games, but the team hates to lose worse than you do. They're out there fighting, and if you continue to hold a stiff upper lip the team can't quit."
It was with this challenge that Gwinn Henry, the University's new athletic director, keynoted his first appearance before a student gathering when he spoke yesterday morning in front of Robinson gymnasium.
Although the rally was for the Michigan State game, the speaker had some things to say about the Nebraska and Missouri encounters.
Alumni Spirit Better
"Nebraska is just like every other team. They don't sprout wings and fly. They have to run with their feet." Does that doves have a chance to beat them?
Remembering his coaching days at Missouri, Henry remarked that it was certainly fine to be able to listen to the Rock Chalk yell from the field. "You don't know how demoralizing it can be," he declared.
Team Leaves at 8:41
Just back from a state-wide wint
n which he spoke to alumni groups
he new director reported the spirit
of his campaign and undergone a
revenuation, too.
"Kansas has had its lean football years, but so have other schools," Henry commented. "Just remember, Missouri has beaten us only once in the past six years when we lost to all the supposedly poor teams."
A large crowd gathered quickly after being drawn at 10:20 from their classes by the noise of sirens and fire crackers. Plenty of pep was exhibited as the speaker was frequently interrupted by cheering. The rally was closed by the giving of the Rock Chalk.
The team is leaving at 8:41
morning. No special rally is planed,
but the cheerleaders hope that
many of those who do not have 8:30
classes will go to the station to give
the team a good send-off.

Squad in Fair Shape
Adding to the edge the Spartans have is the fact that this game comes the week before the Nebraska-Kansas classic. It is feared that the Jayhawks will be thinking too much about that game to play their best ball at East Lansing.
However the Kansas eleven seems to have attained winning ways and with the enthusiasm of the school thoroughly aroused, the Jayhawkers should at least put up a better battle than was evidenced by the scores of 42-0 and 41-0 in the last two games with the Spartans.
Coach Lindsey will take a squad along that is in much better physical shape than the one that made her last season popular, regular center, will be the only

The Kansas attack hopes to function more smoothly this week, with the return to shape of Dick Amerine, finally broken field runner and pass catcher. Amerine did some sensational ball carrying in practice this week, getting away for touchdown jumps of 50 and 92 yards.
Michigan State will rely heavily on the ability of John Pingel, classed by East Lansing observers as being

On his bicks this season he has an average of over 50 yards per punt. This should give rise to an interesting punting duel between Pingel and the Jayhawk booters, Divens and Replouge.
