The recent election of the medical beauty queen is being protested by a group of Beta's who entered Greasy Greta in the competition, Carrie Cadaver, as you remember, was the judges' choice. The editorial page carries a complete report of the progress of the protest.

Last Notes on the Carnival: Th Beta's made the most money with their act even though they were paid off in pennies. . . They were much luckier in the athletic events—tied with the winner, but the loser flipped to determine the winner—figuring that the luck of the Irish would see them through, the Acapela's sent in Hagan, an Irish boy, to do the calling, but, when the coin was tossed to see who would call the toss, the Beta von, instead, final test, he won again. Such luck!
It was enlightening to see how the Hill personalities responded to the horse race. It might even tend to show why they are popular—Guerney as a jockey or Todd Gentry must be a murderer if he didn't show up to early season form—the crack made by the announcer when Gertrude Field won the Senior Cake Walk ticket was a little out of line—it is easy to see how fast a Hill band picks up and falls. Benny Goodman swing is beginning to crop out in Hill music.
A well-known Joyhawker who received a slight touch of the flu decided to call a doctor to help get rid of the flu. She said she was at the salve, a salve, and a medicine. He got his wires crossed following the doctor's orders and drank the gargle, gargled the medicine and plastered his hair with the flu vaccine, minded professor's morning toilet.
The Kappa's had fun on April 1 when Jimmy Daniels, a Sig Alph pledge, put out a miniature pin to Glenda Speakman. When the candy was passed, it turned out to be jelly beans. Helen Sneedley carried the joke a further time when she decided to kiss him. Although she chased him around the table, she didn't catch the fleet-of-foot Daniels, the sucker.
Absent Minded Observations: The Phi Delt party was just another of those "affairs", although for a time it threatened to turn out a farce. It was supposed to be the snow on the ground—Several Hall beauty entered the content sponsored by the Granda theater to determine who should win the title of "Miss Lawrence, 1930". A Eudora beauty won the title of "Kansas dust storm" alam at our own crop of feminine beauties — it's about time that the Dutch Date honey was stopped. The Veterans of Future Wars idea has grown into one of the organizations including Kansas dust storms, Hauptmann death reprieve (now defuse), and now the future retired professors are said to be organizing and demanding their pensions it would be hard to imagine college rounds, and everybody is making foolelish motions with their hands.

The dot that lives at the editor's house was smelling around the gym the other day as I worked with the january class of up of physical education majors have been using the cracks under the shower room door as an excuse to go.
The editor's dog picked me out a swell girl to fall in love with. Being a fellow who does as he is bid, I started the process of getting acquainted. Each class period I moved down a roowoping before the semester was over to get in the same row and maybe, if I were very fortunate, to sit next her, so I could go to school and go, the girl came to class wearing an engagement ring. In sad disgust, I dated the blonde coke menace and was bored terrificly.

Hear President-Elect
of Kansas City
University
Dr. J. Duncan Speath, president-elect of the University of Kansas City, speaking at the twelfth annual meeting of the Kansas college teachers of English in the auditorium of Spooner Thaier museum at 8:30 Friday night, said, "Literature is an art, and not a device to be devoted to propaganda." In the opinion of Dr. Speath, the teacher of modern thought in the fields of economic and of social philosophy, for in no other way can he fully be understood the literature that he is reading. The teacher of English must not only be an expert in some particular field, but also be acquainted with fields outside his own.

Peace on Danube Will Be Discussed By Paul H. Dengler
Well-Known Educator Will Address All-Student Convocation To tomorrow.
morrow
Dr. Paul H. Dengler, well-known Austrian educator and lecturer, will make his third visit to the University, when he speaks before an all-University convention tomorrow morning on the campus of Peace Be Preserved on the Darunae?"
In the spring of 1532, Dr. Dengler, who is director of the Austro-American Institute of Education in Vienna, spent four weeks here as a visiting professor from the Carnegie Foundation, and in 1363 he visited the campus of the University Institute of International Education. This is his seventh visit to America.
The Story of the Lindbergh Crime
The peace of Europe centers in Austria. At the end of the World War Austria became a country with a population of six and a half million people. In 1943, Germany invaded because of the contraction of boundaries. The Socialists formed the first army immediately after the war and ruled Austria for several years. Under them apartment houses, kindergarten and other desirable institutions were erected.
Austria is Center of interest Intense world interest is directed toward Austria. Since the World War, its dense population, chiefly engaged in agriculture, has seen the national trade boom. Austria's mercy of entangling foreign alliances and campaigns of violence, terrorism and intimidation.
Austria Is Center of Interest
Dolfuss Becomes Dictator
Parliament broke up due to fights over trivial matters, showing the tension in Austria at the time. Dollfus took over the government as a dictator (Sir Stephen Ellis and Nazis). In trying to suppress the socialists he encountered much opposition but we finally able to stamp the rebels who also rejected any joining with Germany.
Austria Has Three Avenues
Three avenues face Austria. Two or them entail the possibility, if not the probability of war. Any attempt to unite with Germany would bring on war incited by the anti-Germian factor in the struggle against it with Italy to antagonize other factions. A re-establishment of the Austro-Hungarian nation would be logical and logical at 4:30 Monday Dr. Dengler will speak before all students of the School of Education in the Fraser theater on "The Basic Principles of the Fascist Philosophy of Education." The meeting will be open to all interested students.

LIBRARY STEPS TO BE FINISHED- REGENTS' RULING
Board Approves Plans and Orders Advertisements for Construction Bids To Be Posted
ELEVEN YEARS LATE
Work Probably Will Start As Soon As Contract Is Awarded
Erection of the steps probably will start as soon as bids can be let, according to the report from the Board.
The Board of Regents yesterday approved plans for the completion of the Watson library steps and authorized the state business manager and state architect to advertise for bids for the construction work it was learned last night.
State Architect Raymond Coolidge, 24, who was graduated the spring the library was built, Friday inspected the site and reported to a meeting of the Board of Regents yesterday afternoon. The blueprints of the proposed steps have been submitted and after a few minor alterations will be completed.
Action Not a Surprise
After a vigorous campaign by the Daily Kansan last December, Coulidge wrote, promising to have the steps completed, at the latest, by the time students come back to school next fall. The acco- ments yesterday was not altogether a success.
Costs of the project will be met from the regular University budget. Because there is no tie-up with federal funds, all costs must be avoided and work may begin early.
Steps Will Be Split
The attractive new plans as submitted by Coolidge indicate that the steps will be split, one set rising from the east, the other from the west, to a landing zone. The series will rice to the level of the present most-like entry to the building.
Attention was concentrated upon the campus hazard last December when it was discovered that a number of students were suffering falls every week. Campus workmen alleviated the situation somewhat by installing rikers on the back of the scaffold steps. Interest was sufficiently arused that architects took charge of the sophomore design classes used the project as one of their problems this semester. The results of the class work were displayed in the library recently.
