Just Plain "Boloney"
There comes a time in the life of every he student when his pipe goes sour, his mind becomes dull, food becomes tasteless and it seems as though the whole world is down upon him. When this time does come don't sit back in your own seclusion and rot with your thoughts. Throw that dry book somewhere in the corner out of the way, round up a couple of your old crones, and enter into a real old-fashioned bull test. Lay your feet upon the table alongside of their, throw open your shirt, loosen your belt, take your shoes off if you so desire. Haul out a sack of pecans if other refreshments seem to be lacking. Anything to lessen the tension.
Then, when everything is ready, let off that compressed steam. If you don't like the way the world is being run let your crones know so and why. They will either agree with you or not, and by the time each has given his viewpoint your arguments will either be torn to bits, or flawless in reasoning. Anyhow at the end of the session the outcome is always the same. You feel relieved. Latent interests have been aroused. Trifers won't bother you any more than trifles should. The fact of the matter is you will feel a damn sight better all the way around.
next week-end is the time set for all the parents to visit their sons and daughters at the University and meet the mothers and fathers of their child's friends.
Parents' Day
Parents' day is one of the traditions of Kansas University. Hundreds of mothers and fathers come to visit; some for the first time while others have been visiting their sons and daughters of their old school champs.
This is the one time when the parents are particularly honored, and each student ought to try and get his mother and father to come up. It is the time the parents wait for each year.
Many plans have been made so that it will be an enjoyable week-end for all if each student does his part. We are all proud of our mothers and fathers and this gives each student a chance to show them off. They look forward to meeting the students and faculty and to seeing the University go on. So, the students are anxious to meet their friend's parents whom they have heard so much about.
Therefore, if each student gets his "mom" and "dad" up here and shows them the sights, and sees that they have a good time, it will really be a "red letter day" for both the parents and students. It will be a time they will remember as being particularly enjoyable and happy.
Glenn Cunningham of Kansas
Gleem Cunningham, the boy who everybody pointed out as the Kansas runner, hasn't been doing so well lately and many believed he had his time, but Saturday afternoon this Kansas changed their minds by establishing a new Amerycorp team, which was twenty-seventh running of the Drake relays. He rounded the track in 2:11.2 which was a full second faster than the previous record.
Glenn Cunningham is a boy of whom every student should be proud. He has done a great deal for the University of Kansas and is doing more all of the time. He is one of America's chief hopes for the Olympic middle distance races, and here he's hoping he goes to town at Berlin.
This Kanman has trained conscientiously and worked hard to get to the top. When he slipped a little, that didn't bother him, and he worked hard. Then he fell off the ladder and had lost. Now he is again on the upward trend.
The Glorious Past
These patriotic daughters have no reason whatsoever, except their ancestry, to be heard in the councils of the nation. Already there are enough troubles without their adding to them.
The Wango-Wango bird flies backward because it would rather see where it has been than where it is going.
So long as the society sticks to teas and medalpinning on the Fourth of July, the nation can look upon it with a smile of friendly tolerance. But when the ladies begin to stir up dissension and ill-feeling by such statements as that of their "national defense chairman" that Congress is filled with disguised Communists and that progressive youth movements are impiring the future of America, then the association becomes irritating and ridiculous. It takes an almost Hearstian delight in "red-baiting." Strange companions, Hearst and the D. A. R.
Very like this well-known mythological creature is the D.A.R., one of the most extraordinary phenomena of modern America. To gain admittance to this society all a woman need do is prove that an ancestor was in the Continental Army, or putting it arithmetically on the basis that five generations have passed since 1776, that 1.62 of her predecessors fought in the Revolution. This fact will enroll her in an organization which indulges in lobbying, meddles in the foreign and domestic affairs of the government and wields deplorable influence over the schools.
and while the nation enjoys the bit of humor they occasionally cause, yet when they go middlesome, it is likely to become impatient. As one of the members herself recently said, she feared the society had become "too sot in our ways" to be an important national force. We agree.

Dis-Ouiet Zone
Do traffic noises bother you? No? Would they bother you if you were ill in a strange bed in a hospital situated along a thoroughfare carrying heavy traffic?
"Yes," says Dean H. R. Wahl, in his protest against the construction of the new Seventh street traffollow from Kansas City, Kan., to Rosedale past the University of Kansas hospital. Hospital officials have issued vigorous protest against the proposed plans, fearing that excessive noise will effect upon convalescing patients, and that speed motor vehicles would endanger the lives of visitors.
The faculty of the hospital and the state board of regents, will meet soon with the representatives of the Kansas state highway commission and merchants of the Kansas City, Kan., city commission to settle the dispute.
Will the pleas coming from an institution which stands for health and safety be heeded? Or will the strength of plans already completed for the construction of this trafficway outweigh these pleas for health and safety?

Editor Daily Kansan:
One need only visit the Capitol building at Topena to see how Governor London balanced the budget. From the capitola dome one is allowed a wide and complete view of the city. However, this panoramic view is clouded by grimy windows which seem to be smudged with dirt. Such filth is but a cross section of the entire building.
It is obvious that if the national budget is to be balanced in like manner remarks about filth and negligence will be whispered everywhere at -home and abroad. If Governor Landon intends to balance the national government budget as he did the state budget then our only resource is to pray. (Signed) M.E. S. Straus.

Chicago—(UP)—The National Youth Administration has upset the theory that getting a college education is a full-time job.
Disprove Belief
That College Work
Is Full Time Job
President Roscoe Puffall of Southern Illinois State Normal University reported that 194 students who worked part-time at NYA jobs during the last four concussed the several hundred other students in general schoolship.
The percentage of NYA students receives grades of above B plus was 34.53, while the percentage of other students was 22.26.
"The very marked superiority of the scholarship of the NYA group was something of a surprise to me." Dr.
Pallium told NYA officials, "I times it indicates that the federal government is certainly a worthwhile investment in these young people, who, in spite of the fact that they spend hours daily at work that presupposes their education, their grades, are able to keep their scholarship up to a superior standard."
