Legislators:
Our buildings need attention too
Next to the extension of Watson library, completion of the University's Kansas City hospital is probably the greatest need at present.
1
This hospital is serving many thousands of Kansans every year. Nearly 6,000 enter as patients annually, and a monthly average of 3,000 visits are made as a part of dispensary service.
During the years of depresion, demands for free services have tripled, and facilities have been tremendously overburdened. The Negro wards are located in some dilapidated, 12-year-old barracks buildings, unbearyable hot in the summer, and extremely cold in the winter. The buildings are a district fire menace.
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
The teaching function of the school has been seriously handicapped by overcrowding. Class rooms and laboratories which were designed for a maximum of 60 students must serve 70 or more, and the hospital bed facilities, intended to serve 40 seniors, cannot in any manner fill the needs of 70.
There is need for a connecting corridor between the buildings, and an addition to the power plant which is overloaded.
The remedying of this situation would benefit not only the students of the University of Kansas, but the citizens of the state who depend upon this hospital for medical attention.

P.S.G.L. Assists Opposing Party Into Positions
Rivalry Between Groups In M.S.C. Politics Has Abated Lately
Rivalry and intensity of attempts to maintain supremacy on the part of one political organization has reached a full, the fall that comes before the storm which will deluge voters. The election time for spring election draws near.
By Dick Martin, c'37
Even the vacancies which are to be filled at tonight's meeting of the Men's Student Council apparently are of little importance in the preoccupied moments of preparing for the battle which will decide supremacy of the committee. Questions failed to consider the situation enough even to remember the names of candidates who are petitioning.
"Petty squabbling once again has made a laughing stock of the Men's Student Council. Rather than see this go on forever, the Progressive Student Government League councilmen deliberately broke the deadlock by voting for Pachau-carnine nominee to fill the vacancy in the school board. The party now has a clear ood undisputed majority in the council.
From P.S.G.L. headquarters the following report was submitted by "Tony" Immel, T38, chairman of the party.
"The progressive Student Government League believes that there are two pending council measures which are of vital importance: establishment of a co-operative bookstore and regulation of student work in the library, and support for these ends. The P.S.G.L hereby offers the Pacchauco party its fullest co-operation.
"The important thing is that the council take action on these issues."
Signed: Howard "Tony" Immel,
Chairman
No doubt in tonight's meeting the procedure will be somewhat different than the regular calling of the meeting to order, the Pacachamas in one side and the P.S.L.G. on his other, with the secretary handling out the "knucks" and the subsequence "battle royal."
John Milton Phillips, c37, could see nothing of extreme importance that would come before the Council. He did mention however that the plans for the student book store had not yet been completed and therefore the Council should would not discuss probabilities. Incidently, both parties seem to be in favor of the book store proposition.
Women students who are interested in securing employment during the summer months at resorts camps or hotels should see Miss Miller, room 220 Administrator building.
A bill on the procedure of the supreme court will be presented by Phillip and the P/S/CL vacancy in October and be filled in noontime's meeting.

The picture gallery that can be seen in the marble of the walls (if one has a good imagination) is probably the most remarkable feature of Kan-ya Cat's dog, and several head of cattle were exhibited to 15 members of the Reporting III class yesterday morning while the journalism students were in a field trip in Topkala.

The reporters from the other papers, however, arose to the occasion with a few leading questions to the Governor concerning appointments to be confirmed by the Senate. Since the students had no questions to ask either the Governor or the newspaper paper, they were asked by asking the prospective reporters what they thought of the recent beer legislation. A poll was
Junior - Senior Winners Will Engage Team In No-Decision Debate
"Should college athletes be sacrificed" is the question for which Martin Maloney, c.37, and William Zupanec, c.37, will consider the affirmative and Gus Garcia and John Stephen of the University of Texas the negative in a debate tonight at 8:15 in Fraser theater.
Most of the marble menagerie is to be found in the corridors of the third floor; however, the group completely covered the building with marble. Heowes, representative of the Kansas City Star, and one never knew when he would round a corner and stand face to face with a large and gray lion. Although he might never see the lion, it would be hard to imagine the imaginative Mr. Howes.

No Popcorn Balls
No Popcorn Bars
In order to see another cow's heat the students had to be the senate committee, which according to Mr. Howes, is the most costly one in the United States excepting only the chamber in the New York state capitol. The senate chamber proved, however, to be no place for the group of students as they had no popcorn balls to munch.
The reporters felt much more an ease while watching the house of representatives in session. The representatives group and it was very easy to carry on a conversation despite an oration that was being given by one of the legislators. In the 10-minute visit, the students heard the correspondent a bill.
The reporters would have gone without their breakfast, no doubt, had anyone told them that the digitaries of the capitol building eat apples and popcorn balls throughout the morning. As it was, the students were quite unable to feel at ease among the officials of the state.

Will Not Attempt To Direct Court, Says Roosevelt
Washington, March 9.—(UP)—President Roosevelt, in a "firebite chat" to the nation last night, disclaimed any intention of seeking control of the supreme court and renewed his plea for quick passage of his program for a "re-invigorated, liberal-murdered judicial." He was on the case of the senate public hearing on his court reorganization plan, the president in an analogy from his first speech on the court at last week's "victory dinner," pictured the American government as a three-horse team. "Those who have intimated that the President of the United States is trying to drive that team over," he said, with chief Executive, is himself one of the three horses." Mr. Rosevelt said.
"It is the American people themselves who are in the driver's seat. " It is the American people themselves who want the furrow plowed. " It is the American people themselves who expect the third horse to pull in unison with the other two."
Then the President proceeded to give his reasons for believing that the federal courts have not been called upon to co-ordinate branch of government.

Herewith goes a big bunch of orchids to some unknown artist of the keyboard who has been delightfully running students' 10:30 classes for the past three Tuesday mornings. From some hidden piano in the southeast corner of that which is lovingly called "Ad" has come new music, straight 'swing' to be heard in some time. Yesterday morning's session featured masterly arrangements of "Rosetta" and "William Tell." The stock numbers such as "Pernits from Heaven" and "Summer Night" were handled in a manner not to be overlooked. Never let it be inferred that we would discourage such activities in the practice rooms. We are much more than who don't have a 10:30 class in the vicinity of the practice rooms and who are being deprived of the treat. All we can say is Let us know who you are—we would like to take lessons.
The Sit-Down strike craze has at last reached M.
