Stupidity in Tokio
The Japanese government is in no danger of becoming Fascist because of the army rebellion. Nowhere in the world is there less reason for Fascism than in Japan.
Fascism arises where there is a Communist threat to the existing economic system. Communism in Japan is still an infant. Fascism regiments labor to allow the continuance of capitalism on low wage scales. Japanese business thrives on its ability to underself, and it does this because its workers are already accustomed to the lowest standard of living in the civilized world.
Fascism depends on a patriotic mass psychology of marching feet. Japan's citizens, following her army's advance in Asia, have constant visions of heroism in mutti before them. Her newspapers use bunner headlines whenever a foreigner is caught with a camera in his hand—and not because the high command gives two whoops about photographs, either.
Fascism makes the armament business a national affair. Almost half of the Japanese budget goes to the army and navy.
Fascian directs its enthusiasm at a dictator, a super-man. The Emperor Hirohito makes a supreme figurehead, outduring either Hitler or Mussolini to assert his authority. Like Roman rulers, he has been apotheosisized.
The difference between a Japanese liberal and a Japanese militarist is about the difference between Schacht and Goering. The revolt was a stupid attempt at a "blood purge" by a group of hot-heads who did not know what they had when they had it. It may result in an avowed Fascist premier, or in further military efforts, but it will not change the form of government.
It does not have to.
The Man and the Team
The Man—Dr. Forrest C. Allen for the past seventeen years has been director of athletics and basketball coach at the University of Kansas. He was one of the organizers, and for two years president of the National Association of Basketball Coaches. For ten years he has been a member of the National Basketball Rules Body, and recently he has been appointed director of the United States Olympics Basketball Team, which will compete in the Olympics at Berlin this summer.
After finishing his schooling at Kansas, Dr. Allen went to the Warrensburg Teachers College where his basketball teams won seven consecutive conference championships. Since his return to the University in the fall of 1919 his teams have won eleven championships, five of them being in the Big Six confrence.
The Team - Sixteen victories without a defeat, that is the record of the University basketball team has for this season. Last Friday night the team won for Kansas the fifth Big Six conference championship. This team, which has in its starting lineup Ebling, Allen, Noble, Prale, and Kappleman, is recognized as one of the smoothest combinations in the country. Its hall handling is nothing short of marvelous, its aggressiveness and desire to win are the tops, and its ability to diagnose and cover opponent's plays is uncanny.
To the MAN and to the TEAM the Kansan sends its congratulations for the past season and adds to them the hope that the "Father of Basketball" in his visit to the Olympics this summer has the opportunity of seeing a team composed largely of Kansas University players and directed by the Kansas coach win for the United States the Olympic championship.
After-Lunch Drowsiness
Are the professors to blame for drowsiness in 1:30 classes? Or is the food consumed for lunch to blame?
But a recent article, "Early Afternoon Slugginess," in a recent issue of the Magazine Digest, leads us to shift the blame to food. It states, "A wide selection of foods for the noon meal can contribute materially toward offsetting the low mental efficiency of mental workers during early afternoon."
Students are inclined to excuse themselves for sleeping in afternoon classes on the basis that the prof is boring and lectures in a monotone. But how do some of the students know the lecture is not interesting? They do not stay awake long enough to know. Anyway the rationalization makes more clear consciences among the student body than one might suspect.
The article explains that a hearty noon meal eaten by mental workers shifts the blood supply from the brain to the digestive organs, resulting in an anaemia of the brain, sufficient to impair mental capacity for a time. A light dairy lunch, consisting of the principal dish a ready-to-eat cereal, such as corn flakes with top milk, and a gelatin, custard, or fresh fruit dessert, is best for a "clear-headed" condition. Ingenious tests showed the subjects to be more distractible or flighty after the heavy meal.
Now, the question is—Are students mental workers?
We Aren't So Young
But we college students are not so immature as the average person thinks. Let the average person visit our campus and look at the students. The vast majority of them go about their daily business with more care and thought than the average business man. Their notebooks are neat. They know how to listen. Some of them know how to think. And persons generally who know these things are not apt to rush into and out of their affairs without consideration.
College students are a gay, mischievous, careless lot. These charges have been against youth ever since Francis Bacon said "youth is to youthianistic."
After all, today's adults were yesterday's youth. This elementary fact, known to every first grader is forgotten by youngsters and by everyone else. Their varied varieties which need to be eternally reinstated.
Instead of "To-wit, to-woho" both political parties must have thought the wise old owl was calling. "To-YOU."
Campus Opinion
Articles in this column do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the University Daily Kanen. Articles近200 words in length are subject to cutting by the editor. Contributions on any subject are invited.
Editor Daily Kansan:
We have been spared thepleasantness of reading articles by Clarence Oakes for over two weeks now.
Harlan Jennings.
Mr. Oakes' type of propaganda is particularly insidious because he poses as a hater of Nazism even while elucidating it. He says in effect "I am opposed to Hitler and am considered an enemy by the Nazis; yet I am such a fair man that, against rwll will, I must admit there is no discrimination among me against Nazism that Nazism is a wonderful form of government." To do this he must disregard the existence of conditions reported by such conservative papers as the Kansas City Star and Times. Then of course one might ask why such an eminently "fair" man would be considered an enemy by Hilter. His "lowdown" on the booing of Cunningham this winter was very enlightening too. One would think that the Eastern track fascists were almost invincible in antecedents before going to meet and booed accordingly.
Anyway, it is to be hoped that should Mr. Oakes come out with any more "explanations" of current affairs the Sour Owl and not the Kansan will benefit therefrom.
Editor Daily Kansan:
These being such desultory days, maybe it would not come anisie to inquire into the activity ticket, remember it? The latest outrage to be perpetrated upon the long suffering students is that a two bit bug is being applied for the intramural finals. If I'm wrong, stop me. But it does seem that when an activity ticket is being forced down the galley of the student body, on the promise that they are doing student activities, the intramurals should be included.
Intramurals are partly finished through entrance fees, and receive free heat and light, etc. And consider your own position, sir. According to all the books, no paper should print news or free publicity about an event to which an admission is charged, outside of its own value. Of course, it is highly diverting to see the wrestlers contend and the backstainers romp, but intramurals are a student activity, carried on for their physical betternment, and should be included on the activity ticket, and should be included on other things, including your highly useful sheet.
I fully anticipate be disproved and mildly reproved, but nevertheless, I think there is the germ of an idea in me.

Campus Y.W.C.A. Helps Many Women To Become Adjusted to College Life
An afternoon sea might be your conception of W.Y.C.A. But this one of the Hill's organizations is more than half a school and part of an international effort to aid young women in living full and creative lives. The association here is only one of 624 kindred student associations in the country, and student associations form only one of three branches of the organization in this country. The other branches are for business and profes-sional workers and aids for industrial workers.

But to begin simply, let's take a look behind the scenes of the brown house with the blue triangle located on Oread avenue — Henley House. Regularly these meetings three, each group appealing to special interests of the girls, Freshman commission meets on Monday afternoon discussions and activities of freshmen women. This group has been influential in helping new students to adjust themselves to campus life. Advanced students participate in duma of fellowship for women with advanced classification. On Thursday afternoon those especially interested in economic, social, and international affairs meet on World Affairs. The group especially engaged to stress fellowship and acquaintance of students of different races is the Intercial Comme- meetings on Thursday evening.
A social service group gives pre-occupied assistance and guidance to underprivileged girls of high school and junior high school age. This committee, and other standing committees, operate without having special meeting times. These committees provide a publicity, a membership, a ways and motions, and a finance committee.
The Campus Sisters provide any new women student, who so desires, an upperclass student to show her around the campus and to see that she gets the proper start into University Life. The Co-El Club is designed to provide a variety of opportunities between girls in organized and unorganized houses.
The chairman of the various commissions and committees and the officers of the organization form a cabinet. It is those officers who are being elected today. The cabinet acts as the nucleus for direction of activities and decisions provides a growth and inspiration for the members.
The association has its secretary
Hollywood — (UP) — Reginald Deny,
a long-time movie actor who has
ascended the heights, skipped from
popularity finally to attain a solid
unprecedented success in films, has one
success that sets him apart from the
usual star.
It is his record for giving performances before English royalty. He has trod the footbounds while the ranking members of the House of Windsor became critical from the spectators' side of the footlights.
Denny, who currently is appearing in the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production of "Romme and Juliet," appeared before English royalty when he was 6 years old. He was the boy member of the company "Carol" and the musical "Carol," at Sanditon in 1898. Queen Victoria termed Denny "a manly little fellow," he relates.
His next appearance before the Queen did not draw such compliments, however. He was an avid reader, where a company, of which Denny was a member, was producing "The Royal Family." It was an attempt to depict Mr. Denny's rulers-a dating thing for its time.
"The Queen became irritated by the impersonation of herself," recalls Donya Mrs. Calvert, a famous actress of the 1920s who was enacting the dowager Queen.
Queen Victoria attended the play with Albert Edward, then Prince of Wales She left before the final curtain although the Pride did not accompany her.
"The Prince of Wales, however, had a friend in the cast. He was Lord Rosslyn who had the stage name of Erskine. "It all resulted in a lot of newspaper talk. Some said the Queen shouldn't have walked out—others said she did not want it and chided her son for not doing what it was; it was all good publicity for the play."
M. P. F. Walker, who resides at Henry house. The advisory board is composed of some faculty members, faculty members wives, and other women Lawrence. The present chairman of the board is Maree Rosemary Ketcham.
Denny's performance before the late George V and Edward VII was given in circumstances vastly different from the one that he had abandoned the stage during the war and was a member of the Royal Air Force. At Hastings, in 1917, he wrote and produced several one-act plays. One of the works was written by him by the King and the Prince of Wales.
In addition to these regular affaas,
Y.W.C.A. combines with W.S.G.A., Y.M.C.A, and the Council of Religion in bringing apprehension to the campus for
The National Student Council, working by divisions in seven regions, is the executive body which carries on the work of the students and associations. This region is named the Rocky Mountain region. Each region has a student chairman, and Ellen Payne of Kansas State College serves this area. When Y.W.C.A. and Y.M.C. are church groups, the body is called the Student Christian Movement. This group is set up along the same regional lines, and the chairman for the men is Charles R. Hulce of the University of Oklahoma. As part of time M.V.A. secretary is as long-time M.V.A. secretary.
Students from all campuses in this region have their opportunity for meeting at the regional conference which is held each June at Eaten Park, Colorado. To all who have been there "Little Benefits at Eaten" is a descriptive narrative that tells about and now inspiration through the capable leaders and the scenic setting.
Not only do the Christian associations of this country join hands in cooperation, but the Student Christian Federation will form the World's Student Christian Federation, with headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. The Federation is responsible for training students to be held in California during August of this year. At this time students from countries bordering on the Pacific Ocean participate in international problems affecting them.
This tells only part of the many activities in which students work, and does not begin to describe the whole of Christian education associations. Missionaries in foreign fields, movements for peace, and health projects compose a part of work. So the girl who goes down into the school has to expect effects that have far-reaching effects.
Last year 86 per cent of those paying the health fee were treated at least once, and 25,300 patients were treated during the entire year. This makes an average of 16 percent of students for each student. This year the total number of patients shows an increase. On February 27, the total was 21,128.
"A student health service has a very important place on any campus," said Doctor Cautenous. "Our own hospital is in the United States. It is unique in that it is compiled in one unit."
Were reluctant to pay
the University Health Service was first held nearly 39 years ago, students were reluctant to pay the fee. During the first year 42 became members and two were cared for with the funds. Since that time the fee has increased during the time of enrollment and 3,700 students paid the $3 fee this semester. Graduate students and special students have seen the benefit derived, and even though they are not required to pay the fee, they usually ask permission to do so.
Wichita Men
Name Qualifications for Perfect Co-ed
The number of students treated in the dispensary daily ranges from 110 to 170 with an increase on Monday and a gradual decrease during the week. The average number of patients cared for in any one day this year was 183 on Feb. 10.

“Of course there are those who want their warts and corns looked after, but most of the students wont treatment for colds, and a considerable number come in for general health conferences,” he continued.
"Students often come to the dispensary for trivial things," said Dr. R. L. Cautenone, head physician at a recent interview, "but we encourage them. Our pneumonia cases are getting well quickly because we see them early." He
In order to rate socially with the men at the University of Wichita, a co-ed has to be tall, dark, and slender, according to a vote taken at random from nearly a hundred men on the Wichita campus recently.

Shortest Lived Professional Britains Are Doctors
The building, which is called Watkins Memorial hospital in memory of Jabez B. Watkins, was presented to the University in 1931 by Mrs. Watkins. The professional staff consists of three full-time physicians, an intern in neurology and a neurologist in Kansas City, an office secretary and filing clerk, a laboratory technician, an X-ray technician, a visiting radiologist, and five graduate nurses. Doctor Cauleton pointed out the need for a medical nurse said that during busy times physicians are forced to handle many cases in five or ten minutes when they would like

The old saying that men prefer blondes seems to be a thing of the past according to the results of the interview. Men were more likely to be polled about two-thirds of the vote leaving the other third to be divided between the blondes and the redheads. Other qualities that an ideal co-ed man must possess are that the interview are good sportmanship, a good sense of humor, and a charming personality. Also the men declare that a co-ed, should never look like a girlfriend as a friend as a meal or a theater ticket.

Doctor Camuteus believes that the services of a mental hygienist would be an invaluable aid to the hundreds of students who find it necessary to adjust themselves to a new environment. He said that if funds were available, a mental hygienist would probably be able to administer a second improvement which he is looking forward to is a dental clinic for cleaning and examining the teeth.
