PAGE TWO 1 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS SUNDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1936 Comment Political Interest Perhaps it is because the University is the Alma Mater of Gov. Alfred L. Landon or perhaps undergraduate interest parallels that manifested by all of the United States in the coming presidential election, but whatever the cause it is a wholesome commentary on the University's student body that such a large part of it is taking an active part in the current campaign. Young Republicans, Young Democrats and Young Socialists each have perfected their organizations on Mt. Oread and will make an intensive drive to see that every eligible student voter casts a ballot on Nov. 3. That phase can't the important part, however. It is the fact that these students, most of them just past the voting age, are showing a live interest in our national and state affairs. These campus organizations are a type of laboratories for citizenship. They form a strong foundation, an enlightened background, for the students when they leave the University to go into nearly every branch of life. The members of the three Hill political clubs are not planning, for the most part, to enter politics as a vocation, and it is not intended that the purposes of the organizations be such. Rather they are an invitation for students to participate in governmental affairs and that invitation offers valuable training which will make for a more informed citizenry in later years. Go to it, you Young Republics, Young Democrats, and Young Socialists. We're for you! Meet That Woman She is medium in height and takes care to be unnish. Neither by classical nor by professional standards is she a beauty. Her features are too sharp. Her chin is pointed. So her nose, with a hint of a crook in it, she has the acute facial angles of a woman who, when frustrated, becomes shrewish. And she has the driving energy which, when baked, becomes ill-natured. And mostly et cetera, from the Kansas City Star, and you have Mrs. Simpson. Her crime? Before the press, fellow students, she danced with a king. When you go to a football game don't give a yell for your own particular college but yell for the team. There are a few who are playing for the fun of it, and will appreciate the applause. "Slang Language" —Tulane Hullabaloo. Slang! Horrors! How many of our average youths of today could converse for any length of time without unconsciously using a few words upon which Webster would be inclined to frown. Slab, probably thought by many to be the language of youth and the lower classes, is used by one and all except the greatest purists. According to W. D. Whitney, slang is the wanton product of "the exuburance of mental activity and the natural delight of language-making." This mental activity, however, includes only a small percentage of people. College wits, sports writers, the movies, the comic strip, and columnists all contribute their part to this natural delight. Think of Winchell, and one thinks of middle-aisling, infanticipation; renovating; think of sports, and one thinks of fan, rooter, and pinch-hitter. Then there are the slang terms which have been existent for centuries. Just a few years ago when a popular piece included the words, "hi nonny nonny and a hot-cha-cha", someone a little brighter traced the expression back to Shakespeare. "Drunk" has probably more slang synonyms than any other word — namely, boiled, canned, cockeyed,罪犯ed, stewed, tanked, pieeyed, and plastered. Yet all these words date back to before the Civil War. Other slang expressions drift into our language and cannot be dropped by even the most prudent because of the lack of a substitution. Examples are bootlegger, graft, speakeasy, and racketeer. So it is that slang is an expression of the youthful and buoyant. It provides new ways to say things in a more clever fashion; it is amusing and it is different. Rural Whiteways Hannibal, Mo., boasts of the three stretches as do Chicago, Ill., Pompon Lakes, N. J., and Nela Park, N. Y., and from the results of the experiments it does not seem improbable that rural highways of the future will be as well lighted as urban streets. Sodium vapor lamps whose soft—and inexpensive—yellow glow is proposed to light the way to greater safety in night driving are being demonstrated at present on various "test miles" over the country. Stationed on all heavily traveled highways 30 feet above the road and 115 feet apart, these lights are predicted to cut automobile accidents to a third of what they have been. And that, everybody agrees, would be something. Technically, these sodium vapor lamps consist of two bulbs, one inside the other, the outside one of which measures a foot and a half in length, and the inside about half that amount. This inside bulb is filled with metallic sodium, which when heated by an electric current, vaporizes and throws off a soft yellow glow. Five times more efficient than the ordinary incandescent lamp, they cost one-fifth as much to operate. On roads lighted in this fashion, there is no glare, and it is not necessary for cars to use their headlights. Despite the fact that objects under such a light do not appear their natural color, the effect is not displeasing, and since most people would rather look like a ghost than be one, there is little objection on those grounds. Rural whiteways of the future—we salute you! It cost the taxpayers of New York $32,378 for legislative telephone calls during the 1965 session. Here's a mark for the Kansas law-makers to shoot at -Topopea Daily Capital. Invisible Glass "Iinvisible glass" show-windows are becoming quite popular in several of our larger cities. The window is said to be invisible because of its contour; it curves down and inward, the curve being arranged so that all of the light rays are reflected down into a cavity lined with black velvet, which extends below the window level. The optical principle is that the angles of incidence and reflection are equal. The idea resembles that of the side show favorite of the beautiful woman's head to all intents and purposes completely severed from her body by the use of cleverly arranged mirrors. Curious persons have been startled by being unable to feel the "invisible glass" as well as unable to see it because of the inward curve. The glass, however, may be seen from below looking upward but not many shoppers view from their hands and knees. The value of the idea lies in the fact that light bills can be cut down. Ordinary glass windows require heavier vantage in the daytime than at night to combat reflections from the outside. To those presens whom window glass presents a challenge to stare idly out over the local scene, perhaps the invisibility of such glass would promote some consideration of the affairs at hand, especially in the case of school and college students. At any rate "invisible glass" will find itself of great commercial value.

The possibility of printing a booklet which would outline the traditions of the University for the incoming freshmen was discussed at the first meeting of the student body on Monday night at the Delta Chi house, and an investigative committee was appointed.

The latest addition to the long list of popular text books written by members of the faculty of the University is titled "Psychology and the Social Order," written by J. F. Brown, associate professor of psychology. The book is an introduction to the dynamic study of the social fields and in it Professor Brown attempts to clarify the issues involved in the speaking of the sciences of psychology, and the relations between the subject and other sciences. The positive findings of modern psychology and research and other theories that might be considered basic to social philosophy are included among the 289 pages in this volume, which is from the standpoint of the lectures in social psychology. Weather Although this is the first complete text writing by Professor Brown, he has composed many papers and books on the topics of psychology. Social psychology, the subject in which this book has been adopted as a next will be offered in the University next year.
