Hitler Makes a Move
In a move which took the entire world by surprise, Adolph Hitler scrapped the Locarno pact by sending 25,000 armed troops into the demilitarized Rhineland. Scare headlines in newspapers announced the startling fact to millions of Americans. Shades of 1914 were revived by many sensational journalists.
In his speech, in which he made known this latest German move, Hitler offered conditions of peace through a 25-year agreement with France and Belgium. Hitler is also ready to re-enter the League of Nations under certain conditions. His speech was full of diplomatic suggestions for the keeping of peace in Europe.
Meanwhile reports are coming into the United States in great number. No doubt most of these are true as the flood of propaganda which inevitably follows such an invasion as Hitler's has not yet begun to flow. But it is too much to hope that we will not be infested with such propaganda. Calamity howlers and persons not totally unfavorable to war and its boom to industry will immediately raise a German scare. It is against peace destroying falsities that we must be on guard.
If France will keep her head and the League of Nations resort to calm, steady reasoning, the possibilities of averting conflict will be greatly enhanced. Only through hasty and thoughtless action there appears the probability of immediate war. Herr Hitler has put forth some good proposals; it is up to the rest of Europe to adopt those which still seem good after lengthy consideration.
We can only hope that no unwise action will be taken before the facts of the case and the results of any action taken will be thought through. In the meantime, we of the United States, a country far removed from the scene of the unrest, geographically, but linked closer than we realize to the fate of Europe, must consider carefully that which we read and hear about Germany and as best we know to sift the good grain from the chaff—for there will be immeasurable chaff.
Victory Will Be Hollow
Our high-flying Jayhawker basketball team is conceded an excellent chance to win its way through the district and inter-district tournaments to the Olympic finals at Madison Square Garden early in April. Indeed, the Big Six champions will have strong possibilities of finishing high in that all-important elimination in view of certain events of the last week.
Four of the country's finest college teams, Purdue, Notre Dame, New York University, and Long Island University, have definitely declined to compete in the tryouts for various and sunny reasons. Two of these four quintets would undoubtedly be favorites to represent their regions at New York City.
Both Long Island and N.Y.U. have easily-understandable grounds for turning down a chance of placing players on a team to compete in Berlin this summer. Several members of both squads are of distinctly non-Aryan descent. Notre Dame, on the other hand, believes that the tryouts would require the players to be absent from classes for too long a period of time. Purdue's coach declines on the grounds that his team cannot reach the necessary peak of play for such a tournament after the hard season they have completed.
All this is in Kansas' favor as far as the Jayhawkers chances in the final tournament are concerned, but this tourney will now be decried as unrepresentative. We do not wish to condemn these teams for not wishing to compete for their country in the Olympics, but it will be rather an empty victory for the winning team.
Hail Publicity!
It takes all types of men to make up the world. Some men desire a peaceful quite life, but they are few and far between. What a monotonous life! Most men desire fame and fortune—power to them; while others crave publicity and excitement. One way to gain publicity is to strive to be the most reckless driver of the year. If any man or woman will follow these five simple rules, he or she may casually reach that goal:
I. Put the foot-feed to the floor and by all means don't miss any of the beautiful scenery. Don't drive too fast, but don't let anyone pass you. We want you to leave the rest of the cars go by the best they can.
2. Take your half of the road right out of the middle of the road. Some one has said, "Reserve the left line for the on-coming car, the might want to use it," but don't take it seriously.
3. Never indicate a left hand turn. It is a poor chess player who gives away his next move. Keep up the suspense and the game of traffic will be far more interesting.
4. Never honk the horn—it merely wears down the battery. And don't slow up for the sharp curves—that's a sissy practice.
5. Don't worry about the pedestrian, he has more time to worry than you have.
Consumer Protection
Our social problems have caused the promulgation of an infinite number of theories and panacses for curing and preventing economic depressions. Out of those interested in such problems have risen a few men who are now ranked as clear interceptors of our present economic troubles. The University has the opportunity this morning of hearing one of the country's foremost economists, Paul H. Douglas, speak on protection for the consumer. During the last few years Professor Douglas has worked with the Pennsylvania Governor's Commission on Unemployment, the New York Commission, and the Utility Consumers and Investors League of Illinois. This latter field of interest enables him to speak authoritatively on the "Insul Smash."
Much interest has been created by Professor Douglas through his recent books, and especially the latest, "Controlling Depressions." His work with the Roosevelt administration as a member of the Consumers' Advisory Board of the NRA in addition to his travels and experiences with other commissions should make the speech of this economist significant.

Editor Daily Kansan:
Kansas has just sent another Big Six championship basketball team under the wire. This was, and rightly so, played up in your paper and others. However, it is interesting to note that another Kansas team, the track team, went to the Big Six meet in Missouri and walked away with the amazing total of a third in one event and a tie for second in another. The Kansas wrestling team returned from Norman, Okla., with a record which will be the most memorable baseball team will not be subjected to the humility of such overwhelming defeat for there is no baseball team.
It appears to a humble non-participant in any sport that something is radically wrong. Kansas is noted for her basketball team and everyone laughs at her entries because she doesn't get to play with everyone should be but I can't see why minor sports should be so neglected. A well-balanced athletic department would see to it that there would be no such glaring inconsistencies as an all-victorious basketball team that each team would have a hard time besting a turtle.
I have heard of over-emphasis of sports in college curricula but it looks as though Kansas has an over-emphasis on one sport alone, to the exclusion of all others. Here's a bouquet to the basketball team with an union to whowere is the cause for our poor minor sports teams. A.B.

Pfuetze Joins Students on Skiing Journey Through the Bavarian Alps
Editor's note: This is a continuation of
Piratez's letter which was started in
hat Friday's paper.
During Christmas vacation, I joined a group of 75 students, most of them foreigners, on a skiing trip high up in the Bavarian Alps in the village of Schlobenberg near the Austrian border. We met at the station by the village store and spent time customizing characteristic Bavarian high-cost items of short leather breeches, low shoes, wooden stockings, funny looking little jacketts and hats adorned in black with what resembled a shaving brush. Those "shaving brushes" are the beards of a species of mountain goal and are an unusual prized possession of the owner.
We had fine snow for skiing for the first few days, and the rest of the time we spent taking trips to many places of interest and beauty in the neighborhood, mountain-climbing some of the nearby peaks, visiting several mountain lakes, and made an interesting trip to the ice on Christmas Day to see the sunny Christmas day we biked to the nursing home. Hitler at Abersberg. At present they are building him a big new house.
The whole village literally outdid itself to make our stay there a pleasant and memorable one. A more whole-rome, friendly, and sincere people you will never meet than these simple Bavarian highland folk.
Another day we all took the troeller to Salzburg, Austria, a city rich in the history of this part of Europe and just a few miles across the border from Munich. We sailed on an explodend old medieval castle built in the eleventh century and which still stands like a grim and sombre sentinel on a steep hill in one corner of the town. We were shown through it from towers to dangers. With its turrets and battlements against the sky it like a picture bank from a fairy tale of ancient times.
It was interesting to try to get—one I mean just that, "it and get"—the real sentiment of the people there in regard to their attitude toward Nazi Germany. We have a great difference, we received the widest variety of answers. Our guides, for example, who are an ardent Austrian Nazii, would have us believe that "at least 85 per cent of our people must not be Nazis" and Nazi regime in Germany." On the other hand others—not-Nazi ones—told us that "not more than 10 per cent of the Austrians want to have anything to do with Hitler Germany." Being there only one person would not learn much about the true situation.
One night the townpeople of Schellenberg put on an old-fashioned Bavarian highland folk dance for us. All the villagers were attired in their picture-worn music that was funished by the same group we welcomed us on our arrival. A audition
Hollywood—(UP)—The motion picture industry's unhappy herge, the extra, earned $3 a month during 1935, a report on salaries has revealed.
Top salary paid men, boys and girls was $15. The highest paid actresses in the "women's group" received $12.50 for each assignment.
Each of the 50,000 persons who work only for a day at a time received an average wage of $80 for the 12 months. The greatest part of the $30,000 paid the extras was distributed by the employer. The Money maintained by the Producer'sMoney earned by extras placed through hiring agencies outside the major field was decreased at the rate of 10 per cent as a placement fee.
The lowest salary paid in all classes was $32.0 a day. The most numerous class placements were in the $7.50 and $10 a day bracket.
Wages for women placed through the producer's association corporation were paid $74,000 to each group. Only 275 checks were written for actresses who are rated at $10 to $20 per check.
While the yearly income hardly rated any "standard of living" group, the extra fared better than in any year but one during the past 11.
Employment of child extras increased a bit. In that group boys received 5,447 assignments as compared with 4,943 the year before. The 1935 salary was $34-491 as compared with $31,613 during 1934.
Their take was approximately $1,253,017 and was divided among 182,659 assignments. Of those that rated up to 94 classification received about $550,000.
and melody of Bavarian music distinguishes it from that of any other in the world. Once heard, never forgotten, I was struck by the strength of nothing I had ever seen. For the first hour or so, we students at long tables arranged around the sides of the hall drinking hugh stems of beer and wine. We sat in front of the braver souls among us ventured to try their hands at learning the steps, and before the evening was over all of us had joined in the merrymaking much more amusement and pleasure of the villain.
Despite such figures, the number of persons with ambitions to appear before the camera continues to increase. Although the market obviously is over-supplied, registration at the casting corporation and agencies increases. In 1982 a fairly number of interviews for registration was 97 while in 1834 it was 64.
Christmas Eve we all attended midnight mass at the little Catholic church in the village. Apparently there was no heat in the church and it was so cold that the water in the recepientes along the walls was frozen solid. And still the church was jammed to the doors. I remember wondering at the time how many of our churches in America were frozen in the dead of winter with no heat.
After our stay in Schellenberg we went to Munich for two days of sightseeing in this gay and interesting city. We banqueted in the huge Hofbranahaus. It is as much a part of the life of the city as any city, but of KU. Munich beer is famous all over Germany and it is served here in quart mugs. Almost any night the great hall is comfortably filled with people of both sexes and assorted ages and sizes assembled at the huge table. The night we were there was an end of the room, playing alternately.
We went to the art gallery which many maintain contains the finest collection of paintings in Germany. Among the many old masters whose works hang are Holein, Rembrandt, Albrecht Duhrer and Rubens. We visited the immense Deutches Sculpture. Its technique are among the finest in the world.
It was in Munich, you know, that Adolf Hitler made his first "putsch" in November, 1923, and failed. Several of his followers were killed at that time. Munich is considered the chief city of Nazism or "die Hauptstadt der Bewegung," and we were shown many interesting places in connection with the movement from its beginning down to January 1933, when Hitler came into

Quintuplets'
Rearing Raises Many Questions
By Darold Pee Eagle
History in the making! Time marches on. The world is astounded at the phenomenal birth of the quintuplets. Doctors are amused. Profound predictions of the impossibility of all five living. Which will it be, Yevonne, Mama, Emi, Patricia or Creeks? So far, through the palace医生 or a rugged country doctor who is responsible for their being alive today, none have been lost.
future. Although only 20 months old, the five young ladies of Callander, Ontario, have already more than $100,000 in cash and securities and there is reason to believe that their "warnings" will total at least $100,000 above their current assets. They they grossed over $0,000 for the part they played in "The Country Doctor." At this rate when the quintuplets reach 18 and their guardianship is dissolved, they should receive a check near the $1,000,000 mark. The three official guardians are Dr. Dafoe, Mr. Diuno, the unbelievable father, and Judge Valin.
Plans are now being laid for their
At the present writing, the guardians are confronted with the problem of training the children, and seek advice from the world at large in settling such questions as Should they be brought into school together? Their parents and their five brothers and sisters? Should they be educated and trained "en bloo" or separated? Should they be educated in private school, as they grow older or public school, and long should they be kept together and when they natural inclinations would be for whose whole child adventure? What about their religious training and language? What about their physical training as they grow older, their instruction, and their guidance that they be separated for their guidance mentally, spiritually, physically?
Can you answer these questions?
