What's Wrong With Our Odds? ♦ ♦ ♦ Today's "biggest" problem: Who was the girl walking down a certain country road with "Tiny" Moore the other night at about 9:30? "Tiny" has a way of biding things, you know, and it's aroused our curiosity a bit! We were requested to print the following announcement, and being ever ready (for a close shave) to oblige, here 'tis; Kansas chapter of the M. R. Pyle Club will hold a meeting at 7:30 Friday night at Bassett's, Murray Brown, of Kansas City, Mo.

Since this is Leop Year, better heaves of her little shooter, the new “open season” on guys like you! The following stuff just "shows to go" you what the value of repetition in editors really amounts to: + + + Will neutrality keep us out of war? It's doubtful! Will neutrality keep us out of war? I hardly think so! I will neutralize keep us out of war? No, it can't stay safe! Will neutrality keep us out of war? Absurd! Will neutrality keep us out of war? Laughable! Will neutrality keep us out of war? No!!! Eather Grant was seen hearing several sighs of relief yesterday. Yep, she had been forced from yoie old hospital, and now we go to the Junior Prom after all. Soria bad her worried for awhile, but old Fate ups and smiled on her this time. + + + Seems Elizabeth Dunkel, women's physical education instructor in same department, lost a bet the other day, and a hard one to lose, at that. Well, to get this thing over with, Miss Dunkel worked her way to the other side (ten would make a better story) malted milks; but 7½ got her! 'Can we say 'evily the guy who'd be dating a woman of such capacities' (Flash — Report comes that she insists the task was accomplished had she not made the attempt right after cating dinner)? Understand that Louis Brooks, Chi Omega, tuned taxi driver on the other evening when she took seven of the west-of-the-flower bed girls down town. Nothing peculiar except that the "alleged driver," Miss Brooks, had to ride on the running board? Yes air 'em, an inch, and they take your car! Professor Doan said I wrote just peachy editorials; in fact, the best in the class. Now, if any of you dumbbells want help in writing editorials, apply to me, and FIll only charge $1.00 per hour. I know some big real words, —Signed: David (Lilf Dave) Hamlin (Note: Adv., but not yet paid for.)

Chappell Seeks County Office Signed: SE AND STITH IN INTERVIEWS SAY GERMANY NOT AT FAULT Dr. John Ise, professor of economics and a leader in liberal thought, termed the move "the logical for Hitler to do, and a part of a well-conceived strategy," as Versailles treaty for precipitating the tangle in which Europe finds itself. Germany's military occupation of the Rhine valley, defended by Dr. Dietrich Zwicker in a Kansan interview Tuesday, brought assorted reactions from representatives of other schools of thought on the campus. "The Versailles treaty was conceived in sin and born in 'niquity'," asserted Doctor Lee. "It was based on the assumption that Germany was solely responsible for the war. Since the Allies were first to break the treaty, in disgrace, it came to them to dismantle, we cannot ensure Germany for following their example. Everett Sitt, head of the Linotype division of the Journalism Press and prominent in American Legion activities, while skeptical of Hitler's peaceful intentions, charged the difficulties to overcome between the French and the Germans.

DODGE CITY AUDIENCES WILL HEAR HELEN RHODA HOOPE The council heard the first reading of a revived student court bill, which is an extreme simplification of the unwieldy rules of the civil justice system, provides for a student supreme court composed of four associate justices and one supreme judge.

But they were been ill-advised. Had they completely destroyed the German people, they might had rested easily; but instead, they have attempted to block the economic progress of the nation and have used force like drastic measures in self-defense.
