about the peace strike Alpha Omicron Pi announces the Peace strike never marriage of Miss Maxine Eardart University authorities, 37, of Stleet Cone, Neb., to Mr. Elost active in peace demwyn Dees, 35, of Lawrence, which took place Aug. 8, at the home three years now have Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Green in the defense of Ma. The couple are living in 1
rence. Mr. Dees is athletic Kansas City Star correspondent at the University, one of scatter devoted to K-12.
Rogers, Martin is, however, either ignorant and is ignored a number of pertinent facts J Mary Frese of the "peace strike boys." hta to Paul'e know of only two K.U. students in City, Mr. Roeth are non-combatants, one with the Lappa Sigma service.)
(3) Last year the peace strike was sanctioned by University authorities and allotted a special convocation period.
in Law of the two students, only one has taken
pe and that a minor part, in peace strike acti-
at K. U.
But even more serious than the glaring inaccuracies of the Star's reporting is the implication that since two K. U. students interested in peace went to Spain, they and all who attend peace strikes are unpredictable mental curios. To believe in peace and to demonstrate for peace does not resign one to a fate of absolute and unrelenting pacifism—note the national policy of the United States. Certainly we as a nation desire and believe in peace and yet we maintain one of the world's largest fighting forces, an acknowledgement that under certain conditions we believe war to be preferable to peace and absolute pacifism.
These two K. U. students now in Spain are merely prototypes of our national philosophy, on a more manly and unselfish scale. They believe in peace, even as the Daily Kansan and the Kansas City Star, but when they realized that the civil war in Spain was in reality a foreign invasion of a peaceful and almost defenseless people, they made their choice—and chose the side of humanity.
Of Course You'll Want Yours
In previous years students have bought their Jayhawkers when they paid their fees. The Jayhawker is the Kansas University annual which is issued in five separate magazine sections and may be fitted into a monitor one volume at the end of the year. If, in previous years, for any reason one did not care to subscribe, it was necessary to leave the standing line and secure an exemption slip at another office.
Reward the courage of the Jayhawker staff in discontinuing exemption slips by giving them your support and buying the magazine when you pay your fees.
Now, however, Jayhawker exemption slips have been abolished, andscriptions to the annual are entirely voluntary. In some cases other Big Six schools include a smaller, single volume at five dollars with the activity ticket, making purchase compulsory.
Students are tea-dancing. A natural phenomenon common to most colleges, we are not surprised that after several sporadic attempts this pleasant late afternoon pastime has at last appeared on our own campus.
Tea Dancing:
Fait Accompli
Once again we are faced with a "light" subject, one of "trivial" nature that, were it not in actual practice, would be unworthy of notice.
After all, why shouldn't we dance? Given a presentable spot, a chaperon, preferably of University extraction, and a good orchestra, what possible harm can one discover in a little invigorating exercise between cokes or late classes? To the argument that we are putting temptation into the reach of our wayward comrades, one has only to answer that those who are so easily swayed are fore-doomed.
In college we are not boys and girls, but men and women. We demand treatment as such. Adults, we seek adult amusements. Surely it can make little difference whether, if we insist upon relaxing, we spend our time drinking cokes, playing bridge billiards, or dancing.
A Feeble Step In the Right Direction
A new Illinois law requires applicants for marriage licenses to furnish satisfactory evidence that they are not infected with either of the prevalent venereal diseases.
Already several perplexing problems have arisen out of the statute which have turned the medical profession definitely against it. Physicians feel that evasion of the law is notoriously simple. Shady practitioners merely write certificates for persons known to be unhealthy, or provide a temporary cure which renders the disease undetectable but nevertheless virulent
The routine of registration under the Saltiel law provides listing of the disease victims by name, the lists being permanently on record at the state capital. Thus "snoopers" acquire information which invites quacks and petty blackmailers.
Evaders have a distinct advantage over those who are most innocent, especially the congenitally afflicted, as do persons who contract the disease after marriage and thus escape being put on record.
Written with good intent, an experiment in a comparatively new field, the progressive and high-minded purpose of this law cannot be overlooked. But some satisfactory substitute must be found which will close the loops left open to racketeers and show the way to other states who would correct a social abuse so long pretended to be non-existent.
Andrew Mellon:
Philanthropist or Cheat?
We do not doubt Andrew Mellon's good intentions in founding an Educational and Charitable Trust, but we do wonder at his carelessness in being caught cheating the government at the same time.
Granting his purpose worthy, it still rests with Americans to say whether they approve of philanthropists who ignore and defy the policies of our democratic government. Whether he believed that by personally sending his money back to the people he could do more actual good is of no consequence. Mellon owed the government money, and he should have paid it. This especially in view of the fact that his interests remain intact and active under the guidance of the Mellon children.
Although the esthetic needs of the people must be cared for, so must the physical, bread and butter demands with which the government is concerned be met. There is a possibility that such a gift would serve the dual purpose not only of adding to culture but of putting the Mellon organizations in a good light.
The bestowal of wealth on education and philanthropy through a policy of far-sighted trusteeship is a policy to be encouraged among our millionaires, but not under the black cloud of questionable financial manipulation.

Will Initiate Frosh Thursday Evening
The colorful and impressive ceremony of new student induction will be held in the stadium Thursday evening. New students will meet on the site of the original buildings of the University on North College hill where a torch will be lighted in the firebasket by a member of the Mortar Board, senior women's honor society. After hearing a short speech by the significance of North College hill the students will march from the hill to the stadium where the main exercises will be held.
Kanian Board Members
According to custom, the torch will be transferred from Mortar Board to Sachem, senior men's honorary society, and carried to the Rock Chalk cairn. There it will re-emerge in the stadium further explaining a few traditions and some of the history of the University. At the signal of a bugle the members of Sachem relay a burning brand from the fire by the Rock Chalk cairn to the platform in Memorial stadium.
When the torch arrives by runner it will be passed along a line of representatives of the various classes represented by the fire brigade to the fire on the university altar.
