Comment
Class 5 \ schedule Out-of-Step
In intern vitalial affairs, the big problem is, can we remain n' utral? On the campus, a question which is beec rising more pressing all the time is "Can we stay aloft from the town and the rest of the world as 'exgards time schedules?' For a number of years, the class schedule, upon which the University opc.ates, has been an out-of-step sort of thing and wi th the increasing demand for students and faculty, to conform to two schedules, can we afford not to change to an even hour proposition which would jibe with our activities in the outside world?
The change to the half-4 must setup was originally made to allow for morning prayers. When the devotional exercises were abandoned, the class schedule was not set back again in until the war when an even hour was again adopted to conform to the Student Army Training Corps time. At the end of the war, the 820 classes were resumed and for no apparent reason except that a few old timers didn't like to get up so early.
We are living in an age of mutual aid and interdependence. Our activities are not confined to the campus alone. Why, if the majority would benefit, shouldn't we change to an even hour class schedule and get in step?
What a missimer is that pretty black and white sign they put in front of one campus building for the benefit of visitors. Dyche Museum, it says —Dyche would be all right but—museum! Not for four years has such a name been applicable. Won't someone let the buildings and grounds department in on the news so they may be more up to date in their nomenclature?
Federal Intelligence Quiz
Maurice Lowell, the "test-master" for the federal government, presented 11 simple questions to the radio audience the other night. The warning that some were "rather tricky" was given in advance, and average people were expected to get only five of the answers correctly.
The questions greatly resembled those a professor thinks up. While the government tests its citizens to see how much they know, a professor tests his students to see how much they don't know.
To the government's first question, "How many feet in a Scotland yard," one young woman expressed an idea the headquarters of the London police must be "two feet and eleven inches" long.
The other questions:
1. Do you think a croquette ever makes a good wife?
3. How many legs has a full grown Caucasian?
2. Where would you go to buy a goober?
4. What kind of material do you need to make a gasket?
5. Did George Washington write the Monroe doctrine? And if he didn't, who did?
6. Mail to Russia must be addressed to the U.S.S.R. What do those initials stand for?
9. What city is farther west, Reno, Nev., or Los Angeles, Calif.?
7. What is the prince of Wales' first name?
10. What cities do you think of when I mention these five famous streets, Broadway, Michigan boulevard, Pennsylvania avenue, Euclid avenue and Tremont street?
How many can you answer correctly? To prevent an embarrassing situation, here are the answers:
1. No, since a croquet is a small heap of hashed meat.
2. Since a goober is a peanut, I suggest the best place to go is a peanut stand.
3. As a Caucasian is any man or woman of the Caucasian race, the answer is two.
4. The same kind of material as what you are putting the gusset in. A gusset—as all grand-mothers know—is a triangular piece inserted in an article of clothing to make it bigger.
5. John Quincy Adams wrote the Monroe doctrine.
6. Union of Socialist Soviet Republics
7. There is no prince of Wales.
6. He is premier of Italy.
10. New York City, Chicago, Washington,
Cleveland and Boston.
9. Reno, Nev.
Mr. Roosevelt, we are informed, has to pay an income tax just like all the rest of us, the amount being about $15,000. But the process must be much more painful for him, being so much more familiar with the way the money is spent.
Come on, be truthful, how many of them did you get right? Are you an average American citizen? Or by any chance, did you get more than five of them right?
—Boston Evening Transcript.
H. L. Mencken says a Chinaman could beat Roosevelt. But since Mr. Menken isn't running the Republican party, Governor Landon's chances for being the G. O. P. nominee are still pretty strong—Kansas City Kansan.
Nid-Term Examinations
Black circles under the eyes, cups of coffee at 10:30 and four hours of sleep nightly is back in v; que. Of course you know why. It's mid-term week.
Complaints have been flying all around the J fill. "Why do all the teachers set exams on the same day?" Why doesn't it suit any teacher's fancy to set the exam back a day when it would be more convenient for three-fourths of the class? Why is it permissible for a teacher to postpone a test on the day it is to be given after the students have put in the night before, studying?
We don't mind the mid-terms. We know they are necessary. But if there were only some way they could be spread out so that one person wouldn't have five tests in two days. We say "a thousand thanks" to the few understanding teachers who give their quizzes early or late and give us a chance to learn what we are studying rather than to just cram.

Campus Opinion
E/litor Daily Kansan:
In spite of the Kansan's protests that it is not pro-Nazi, the Editor's note above the article on Germany that appeared in the issue of March 19 very definitely shows that the editorial does not believe the article contained no opinions but facts, the note states "it does not necessarily present the opinions of the Kansan." The Editor was also careful to say that the authors were not supposed to be printed at the head of all the pro-Nazi articles that have appeared, the position of the Kansan is now clear.
S. Sass.
Editor Daily Kansan:
The rights of free speech are abrogated in dives ways, judging from two recent articles in this column. The right to criticize malicious pleasure in taking the essential points of an argument to them certain sentences antagonistic to the opinions of the speaker, whose initials he signed. The person violated has the misfortune of possessing singular intials.
Such labels and fraudulent practices are dishonorable and unworthy of the spirit in which a campus opinion column is maintained. By a ruling to the effect that articles either be signed or remain entirely anonymous students would be protected against the instinations of identity implied by initial signatures.

Topeka, Kan., March 18—UP) (The recent announcement by Gov. Frank Merriam of California that he will support Gov. Al M. Landon for the Republican presidential nomination is where he have put the Kanan ahead of the field.
Merriam, who managed the California presidential campaigns of Calvin Coolidge in 1824 and Herbert Hoover in 1928, is a veteran of many political wars and is counted on by London's boenders to lead the Pacific Coast defense into the Kansai camp at the national convention in Cleveland in June.

A new food has come into being—crow meat. Those who have tasted the spicy corn flavored fowl testify for its deliciousness and are loud in their lambiness. Students will not be discovered sooner. University students, who have so much spare time, should take time out for a few catches. If you are versed in the art of marksmanship you may obtain the bird's energy by impacting into the following rules:
2. Find a good Kansas corn field
3. Sit patiently and quietly till the crowds appear
1. Purchase a rifle, pistol or beam-shot
5. After getting the bag limit (1 to 1000), take them home
The latest in poetry, and incidentally this was introduced at the initiation service of pledges of Quill club Thursday night, is the following which we wrote:

"I tell her for a dance.
She ask me no.
All I say is laugh.
She asks for a kiss.
She asks me no.
Gee, do I feel feelish!
Joliet, the old clothes man, a campus character of some 25 years, recently made the statement, "eef I find my love in you," and an honest man I will get it back."
Two students, one from southwestern Colorado, and the other from western Kansas, were looking at the Eastwood Trayer museum. They observed the sand dunes and other desolate scenes, they fast became homesick. It seemed they felt a little foolish when the curtaker took pictures of the pictures were painted at Cape Cod;
The architects tell us that Marvin Hall, or the "engine house," as it is commonly called, is one of the best building on the campus from their point of view. It is perhaps one of the most mentioned when architecture is the topic of conversation among the University students.
Emphasis on the nose if it is a misfit, or emphasis on a skinny middle or a lanky arm seems to be the way University students interpret people when painting portraits. The Administration building has quite a collection of stu-dents in the east end of third floor. They call them "Kim's," and theism, pick out those features that are most remembered by other people, and record them.
A student with the strenuous schedule of one class on one day remarked that he made a valiant struggle getting back to school and recovered with all the rest of the day.

Regardless of the California G.O.P. delegation, Landon now seems fairly certain to have 117 delegates at the convention. Political observers believe he may between 150 and 200 votes assured by June.
Three tastes have pledged their entire slate of delegates to Landon, Kansas with 18, Oklahoma with 21 and New Mexico with six.
In addition Landon backers are relying on 10 of Colorado's 12 votes above of Arizona's six, 18 of Iowa's 14, 13 of Oregon's 14, and 10 of Kansas' 25 delegates.
Landon's managers hope to secure all the votes of delegations from Missouri, Nebraska and Colorado by convention time, besides California's large block which would give Landon nearly 200 votes.
Republican leaders of Ohio, where Landon spent his boyhood, have been extremely friendly to him. Political observers believe the Buckeye state might swing over to the Kansas after the first or second ballot.
Living Costs Increased Under Fascist Contro
Editor's Note: This is the conclusion of the story on Germany which was printed in Thursday's Kaman. The story was published by Helper, Gleu Austria and Kenneth Born.
Living costs have gone up 6 per cent in last four months prior to August 1955, but average wages of unimilled labor decreased 18 per cent; the very man, woman, and child is every man, woman, and child $4 every month for national defense.
Wanderer Works Chemistt recently prevented a wage reduction of 18 per cent on passive resistance. The arrebarder decided to illegal whereupon work was resumed but all members of the shop council as well as the foreman were arrested and convicted.
Reemtama Cigarette Works of Berlini recently experienced labor difficulties when 200 workers worked objectively, they were all dislambased instantly.
Religion
In Harper's Monthly for January of this year, Gunther has quoted Hitler's remark, "We do not want any other God than Germany itself."
Humanitarianism
Quoting Westbrook Pegler's column in the New York World-Telegram for February 27, 1956, "The most pathetic of the Adolf Hitler's slow massacre of the Jews was the children of the Jews who are too young to know what it is all about. These children are subjected to a method of abuse worse than the baby killing which was used in the early days of the great infantry in the early days of the great war in cartoons depicting little bodies

obscure government clerk. Captain wriggling on the bayonets of the marching armies. Hitler's torture of the
Jewish children is even more ingenious however, for he has invented a way to convert the period of childhood into a term of unreliable sorrow, fear, dread and suffering. It is commonly accepted among the civilized peoples of the world that any man who would inflict suffering on a child wontonly or for the purpose of averaging some of their pain, but also the child's parents, or for any other reason, is not quite right mentally and ought to be put away."
James G. MacDonald, former head of the High Commission of the League of Nations for Refugees, in resigning that post called the German treatment of the Jews "a challenge to the conscience of mankind."
It has been suggested that Hitler and his Germany may be trusted with the task of bringing peace to Europe. German spokesman speaketh why not ask Hitler's own career is illuminating on the basis of John Gunther of the Chicago Daily News in Harpers for January, 1936: "He (H Hitler) believes absolutely in what he says—at the moment, but his story has been notorious. Hitler promised to make a puchce and promptly made one [1936]; he promised to tolerate the Papen government, then fought it (1933); he promised not to change the composition of his first cabin, then moved to another building himself if the Munich coup failed and he is still alive (1922). He has eliminated in the course of his climb such friends as Anton Drexler, founder of the Nazi party; Gottfried Feldberg, early director of the Nazis; the creator of its famous "25 point."

"When, in August, 1532, he thought that Hindenburg might appoint him chancellor, he asked for a three-day period during which the Storm Troops could run wild on the streets and avenge themselves upon their enemies." These are the facts. The civilization reflected in such unexpanded statements in that which Americans must accept in accepting a Pascal Germany.
