on the SHIN
By Alan Asher
I, being one of the more gregarious individuals on this campus who seldom fall to attend mid-weeks, do hereby suggest that some persons or persons speak to Winkie-Willie Cochrane, manager of the Memorial Union, concerning the superfluous amount of wax placed on the ballroom floor before each Wednesday night function where are continually bled into him from his hips and his dance but when broken hips and bespattered posteriors received from falling on the floor after complete loss of footage, something had 'orta be done about it.'

A couple of ladies from Trenton, Ma. came stoning up to Liz Shearer's house in a stupor, about 9 o'clock Tuesday night. Liz went for a spin with them, in spite of another date scheduled for 10 the same night, and didn't get back until 12:30. The identity of the lady was unknown. Liz Shearer came out $1 ahead when she found a bill under her door the next morning.
Lida Alice Brown was in bed the other night as a result of a most strenuous horse-back ride. She expected her condition to improve with time. The horse is doing as well as can be expected.
The world is too much with us late and soon we will all go to the dogs, I fear. In one trip down the campus by auto and returning anfoot, I noticed Harold Shunfandon building a lamp post; Halli Harris, head among campus janitors coagulating and surveying possible manumakers for his campaign against the pigeons; a multifacial conglomeration of notes and remotes emanating from his computer, a set of ohnoiusx odors permeating the atmosphere in the near vicinity of the Chemistry building which *probably* brings about a face on George the campus cup, which would enable him to eat out at a chair and a pair of stools that used to be Dynec Hamamit, nothing else happens.
If This Be Treason -our Owl Editor confined to Hospital
Apparently the K. U. Relays club is an organization with the self-appointed task of protecting the University athletic setup from adverse criticism.
The Relays club has recently declared, in effect, that University of Kansas athletes are above criticism.
The Relays club has declared, in effect, that criticism of the coaching setup is unwarranted and that the Kansan has exceeded its rights in discussing the athletic situation.
The Kansan takes this opportunity to explain what it believes are some of the reasons for the spanking that organization administered Wednesday evening.
In the first place there would be no Relays club if it weren't for the University. In short, the University feeds the members of the Relays club . . . it brings them clothing, food, housing, insurance and other forms of patronage.
In the second place, if the University Daily Kansan objects to anything in the athletic situation, some members of the Relays club fear that attendance at games will be decreased and that possibly the University's enrolment may be curtailed by the unsavory publicity.
Some members of the Relays club object to the Kansan's stand because they fear a curtailment of profits . . . and for no other reason!
What utter nonsense! What a silly fear of facing a situation with an open mind!
And by what train of thought, the Kansan would like to know, does the Relays club arrive at the conclusion that it can dictate the policy of the student newspaper or of the administration of this University?
The Kansan stands firm in its belief that free discussion of athletic affairs is for the best interests of the University and that no outside organization has any right to interfere.
We chuckle at such gems of logic as the one that because a coach directs the actions of his players, the faculty of the department of journalism should direct the thoughts and policies of the Daily Kansan's editors—and in line with the dictates of the Relays club. Censorship? May the day be far in the future when the campus newspaper in this liberal educational institution is censored for the satisfaction of the coaches or the downtown clubs!
The Kansan's policy is not malicious, nor will it ever be. Its purpose in this and in all other policies is to increase the value of this University to its students, the state and nation.
Nightshirt Parade To Attract Many Despite Absence of 'Flying Squadron'

Determined Jayhawkers Prepare To Wallop Sooners
Added Fire and Speed Expected to Surprise Heavier and More Experienced Oklahoma Team; All Squad Members in Good Condition for Kansas' Second Big Six Contest
Undaunted by the defeat at the hands of Iowa State, the Kansas Jayhawkers are prepared to battle valiantly against the highly touted Sooner team tomorrow.
Oklahoma, one of the outstanding teams of the Big Six this year, is bringing practically an all-veteran team to Lawrence for the coming fray.
The senate of the PSGL political party has consideré the merits of last year's campaign issues and has taken the stand of no-operating in the work of the Merta's Medical Council to put up a challenge. This will be in the interest of the student body at large. The planks of the platform that now become issues which the organization is vitally interested in are: 1. Civil Service commission; 2. Education commission; 3. University of the Formula; 4. Labor-Religious commission; 5. Peace Plank
The Sooner team, with the players' weights, is as follows: ends, Smith, a junior, 185, and Young, a sophomore, 190, tackles, Brown, a senior, 182, and Ellworth, another senior, 205, guards, Ahrens, a

"The withdrawn from the NSFA has already been affected by a resolution to that effect passed by the council last spring, thus already materializing one of the spring campaign planks of our platform.
(signed), Howard "Tony" Immel
"We appeal to the student body to make these issues their concern. The Pachasacum members of the council I have discussed with you, together, as men vitally interested in the betterment of student government and the student's capacity, the P.S.G.L. and the Pachasacum members of the M.C.C. together will address this issue by marking it with "acceleration"

New Instructor To History Faculty
Dr. Theodore Paulin has been added to the faculty of the University department of history, where he is conducting research on American People, and English History.
Doctor Paulin, a native of Wisconsin is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, and also has a degree of Doctor of Philosophy from that university.
Last year Doctor Paullin was a member of the faculty of Park College at Parkville, Mo.
His principal interests in the history field are American history and English history. He is also considered as exceptionally well informed on the history, origin and development of trade in the upper Mississippi valley.
According to Prof. W. W. Davis, chairman of the department of history, the enrollment in that department is high. Many of the underclass sections are closed, and the upperclass sections, for the most part, are filled.
