PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS FRIDAY, MAY 14: 1937 Comment Schools Have Days; The College Only Daze Uniust, unfair, and un-American is the practice put to use in this institution, whereby practically every school in the University gets a day off from classes to troll and play except the largest and most important division in the school, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The engineers, the artists and musicians, the laws—all were granted a "play day," or a part of a "play day." At that time they were free to gambol on the green, overrun the intramural fields and tennis courts, row around the state lake—in short, resort to any form of relaxation or amusement that their hearts desired. Colleges and universities the country over have "play days," "sneak days," and other days dedicated to the pursuit of pleasure. But do we college inmates get such a break? We do not. Moreover, after careful investigation into the subject, we have been unable to find any good reason why we should be denied this delightful privilege. And the members of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the University of Kansas sit spainlessly in their classrooms and do nothing about it. Why, It Broke All Records! George VI has been officially crowned as king of the British empire, and apparently the coronation can be called a success, although this will not be definitely known until the London merchants have balanced their books. Never before has such a ceremony received such widespread publicity and out-mind-out ballyhoo. The London chamber of commerce even went so far as to hire crack press agents from this country to aid in making the affair a success. For weeks the American papers have been carrying stories of the event, pictures of the principals and the scenes where the coronation was to take place. National radio chans have had trans-Atlantic broadcasts advertising the coronation as one of the greatest pageants in history. All this was for one reason, to get the people from this country to go to London and spend their money, and it looks as though it served its purpose. The coronation was nothing more than a good old-fashioned dollar day for London. The Kansan Platform 1. A well-rounded variety athletic program. 3. Establishment of a co-operative bookstore. 4.

"Swing a bustle, Irmentrude" was the audubnd (for they, were modest in those days) cry of our fathers at the Senior Cakewak. And down through the ages, this spring ejaculation has changed only as bustles and such things have Senior Cakewalkers Dance Through Decades to Better Bands and Later Hours Bob Crosby gone out. On Friday, May 21, the ery of the male will be "Truck on out, babe!" as Jayhawks revolve around the Crosby's band. So, time danced on. Senior class parties long have been a tradition at the University. In the dear, dead days, the gymnasium or the old Fraternal Aid Union hall at Eighth and Vermont, was profusely decorated, reading books and with a little waltzing on and with a little Cakewalks were a glorious adventure. In those days, the party was strictly limited to members of the graduating class. The rest of the school, poor souls, were left outside among the zephyrs to waitz to the piping of Pan, if we hadn't done so. *By Bill Downs. e $ ^{37} $ Establish "One O'clock" However, the red-nose of modern publicity crept into these sweet and fun moments.

Before this time, all parties had been terminated at the stroke of twelve; any later hour being scandalously unheard of. Research failed to reveal whether sorority houses and dormitories had fire escapes, for if we know our youth in spring, it would hardly be correct to say that they were sorority students 12 o'clock when the moon was full if these "student aids" were available.

Also, it was about this time that the Senior Cakewalk became a dance instead of a party. Someone conceived the idea that really good dance bands could be obtained if the seniors stopped being so blasted exclusive and opened the Cakewalk to the rest of the school at general admission prices.
