But for real records of longevity he still has to bow to some of his own early products. Enlightenment at Vassar Five weeks ago Vassar college began an experimental, non-credit course of ten evening lectures on marriage and family life. It has proved popular and has been met with wide approval. Such subjects as the biological aspect of marriage, courtship and choosing a husband, and the philosophy of the budget were discussed. Both men and women speakers gave the lectures which usually lasted an hour. Then the girls were free to ask the speaker any questions they might have. Chief among the reasons for the approval given the series was the fact that they tended to stop the "chitter-chatter" about sex among the students, talking about such matters in the open where the truth could be learned. Certainly it will prove helpful to the girls when they become engaged. Many a marriage has failed because of ignorance of matters sexual on the part of the couple, and a course like this may be the solution to the problem. Something along these lines might well be instituted here at the University. It should prove decidedly helpful, for an intellectual and frank approach to problems such as these is immeasurably better than the usual gossip, carried on with smirks, seething with misinformation. Such a plan deserves consideration. He who thinks of himself alone usually is alone thinking of himself. "Vermont farmers report that the sap has started to run," goes a news item. What a life; we hardly get over one political campaign until another one starts—Kansas City Kansan. A Thought in Passing The treasury department of Great Britain will be out $2,270,000 as a result of the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in May. Officials have reported that this is a far greater sum than has been spent on any previous coronation, and they attribute it partly to the fact that "there is work for this coronation which has never been done before." It is true that this ceremony is creating more interest in the United States than any international affair has been able to do for a long time. The Mulligan street Murphys are poring over the rotogravure sections depicting the royal family no more avidly than the Park Avenue Palmers. The Kansan Platform Unfortunately, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth can take little credit for this. A certain gentleman sojourning somewhere in Austria is responsible for the overwhelming curiosity concerning England's first family. One wonders just what kind of a show would be put on if he had remained at his post. It would be fairly safe to wager that it would have been 1. A well-rounded varsity athletic program. 2. Students who are in college or higher. much less elaborate and much less costly. Perhaps some of the starving Welsh miners whom Edward once promised to help, would have received a part of the public funds that will go to buy jewels, flowers, and banquets. 4. An adequate building program, including: a. Construction of a medical science building. 3. Establishment of a co-operative bookstore. b. Addition to the stacks of the library. 5. Restoration of faculty and employee salaries. Two million dollars seems a lot to pay for any show, but the British aren't kicking, and it's their worry, not ours. Speaking of Football Only about 60 players turned out for the first spring football practice and since then the number has decreased. Relatively few spectators were there, too. It would seem that there should be more interest in the prospective teams, now that an improved athletic set-up has been instituted. Compare the University turnout with that of Missouri's and Iowa State's where the number was approximately 90 each. If we are to have a good team next year, it is essential that more interest be shown. There must be plenty of potential football material on the campus, certainly more than 60, at any rate. The more trying out for the various teams, the better those teams will be through the wider selection available. But there is another angle: the spectators. It is easily seen that with more interested onlookers, the spirit of the recruits will be appreciably raised. So let's have some more genuine interest in the teams-to-be. Germany holds that a honpecked man is not a fit person to hold office. And yet the Nazis frown upon bachelordom, so where are they to find men who are not honpecked —Kansas City Kansan.

Contributions on any subject are invited. Can Such Things Be! Editor Daily Kansan: As you are probably aware, it is very difficult to maintain good posture and to continue to walk in and out. That I don't mind; in fact I'm highly in favor of it, but there seems to be a suspicion in the resort room to make me study long periods. The plan, briefly, is this: Freeze them out. Somebody around there is obviously a fresh-air fiend, for one can usually count on those quaint little windows being open. Upon complaining one is told that the best plan would be to sit between the windows. So I say less regimentation and more warmth in the library. I will go to the library without adding to the discomfort.
