The Red Baiter Writes a Clever One. . You'll Answer for This, Owl Editors. . There's Trouble Ahead. . Badge Deal. . The Game of Hodge-Podge. . Why Ruthie. .
Some of the opened-minded politicians awake yesterday morning seen red as usual. They found a feature story in the Kansas that happened to disclose some facts concerning the Forum speakers. Hadley deserves the credit for the splendid story; he conservatives their opinions and their matters? The radicals have always come through with a few choice bits.
The Owl went and did it. Yes Sir, the whole dern staff had to tell the story to Dean Werner. They say that some professor wrote about the last issue of the Sour Owl. (Hope the chief complainer is a faculty member that I saw in a certain place not long ago). Then too, the jokes are still going on. He complaining to them the Dean, and perhaps the next issue will be censored by Judy Jencks, Red Boy, Dean Werner, and Miss Maguire. Don't miss the next Owl. The Polly Anne

A change in the weather brought a change in some social affair. For instance: Bette Lemon of the Pi Phi lodge, who has served with Milo Schoe, Phi Gam, has asked Honer Holt, DU, to the Pi Phi party. Along with this, we find that Daisy Hearing, another unfortunate, who has been going over the other boy, has given Charlie Crouch of the Beta demie the party bid. Wonder what Sloo and Brown think of the change in affection. Must remember that the Pi Phi lodge was coming for this semester and it may be that the girls are hunting a new social field.

That great orator, Elizabeth Ann Bush, opened her big brown eyes, looked at a passerby, and said, "Where are you?" (A swinging door no doubt).
What did Ruth Stoland mean when she said that her pet bed-bug got away? She meant it got away, of course.

Rose Bowl Trip
Winners To Leave
For Game Dec. 29
Jayhawk and Granada Will Pay All Expenses for California
Jaunt
Two Kansas University students will board a coast-to-coast sleeper bus Dec. 28, bound for California, where they will see the annual Rose Bowl football classic.
The two students will be the winners of the Rosebowl Contest, under way here the past several weeks, under the sponsorship of the Jayhawker, official University publication, and the Granada theater. The winner was announced from the stage of the Granada at 9 o'clock, Friday night, Dec. 13.
Besides the two winning the trip to California, three one-year passes to the Granda will be given as consolator prizes to the next three winners.
Superstitious students are skeptics about their chances of winning on Friday the thirteenth; reversely, a few superstitious students contend the contest, according to its sponsors.
Approximately 40 merchants, advertisers in the Jayhawk, who have taken a part in the content, are handing them out for their use from their stores. These coupons are to be deposited either in the box at the Granada theatre or the Jayhawk office in the Union building, the student union, with the same number as the coupon.
These coupons may be turned in until the time the winner is chosen at the Granda. At that time, the winning coupon can be redeemed to get a huge hopper containing all the coupons.
From then, on it's smooth sailing for the man and woman student on the Hill whose luck was good for a trip valued at $100.
They will leave here early Sunday morning, Dec. 29, and arrive in Los Angeles Tuesday morning all time for breakfast.
Tuesday may be spent visiting in Los Angeles before the big game Wednesday at Pasadena, the football classic of the nation. Already the winners' team, the LA Chargers of the Jayhawk. A sale by mail on all 89,000 tickets is expected.
Thursday they will be guests of the Metro-Golden-Mayer studios at Hollywood with lunch there. Thursday night at 6 o'clock, two happy Jay-Frederick will begin the return to Mount Oresd, arriving on Saturday afternoon.
The trip is an all-expense affair, ample allowance being made in the prizes for the bus fare, valued at $85 meals, both expenses and miscellan-
The Jayhawk and the Granada theater are bearing the expenses of the context, the merchants in the comedy, the actors in the Jayhawk, however, with advertising.

Sklar, Hayes and Phelps To Be Interviewed Tonight at 6
KFKU will broadcast tonight from 6 to 11 65 a program in which Prof. E, R. Eibel will interview Dick Skiar, Rutherford B. Hayes, and Ed Phelpa for an event at the all-Big Six teams which were selected by various sports-writers
This is the one hundred and fifty-second of the series of weekly athletic interviews conducted by KFKU. "The immense success enjoyed by this feature," says Professor Ebel, "is due to the strong support we offer favorite talks. They will listen much more enthusiastically to them than they will listen to coaches."
Senior students are usually selected to participate in this program which gives them opportunity to publicly air their views and opinions in sports.
There is, incidentally, an unconfirmed rumor about, that Ted Husband, in secrecy, had been the coach games he has broadcast, has named Rutherford B. Hayes as one of the ends.

--observations concerning speech in the Middle West.
Theta Tau, House, 12 p.m.
Prof. Harry H. Hall, of Harvard University, recently "photographed" the voice of Miles Hanley, professor at the University of Wisconsin, and found that he was a "random noise"-the same classification as a vacuum cleaner classifier.
Middle-Western Accent Is Likened To the Noise of a Vacuum Cleaner
The pronunciation of English by mid-
middlewesterners was criticized by the
Harvard professors. Harvard University
discussed the meaning of experiments
concerning accents.
Robert Calderwood, associate professor of Speech and Dramatic Arts at the University of Kansas, committed to a rather mild comment on the report.
"The softness of southern speech can never be matched by the Northerner. No Northerner can convincingly adopt the dropping and shading-off of "its" typical of the Easterners and Southerners. Over-correcting is wrong. Sincerity is the guiding factor in good speech while good diction and pronunciation come second. Sincerity, rather than absolute accuracy is the most desirable end of speech."
"Middlewestern speech, crud as it is, from some points of view, can be understood over almost all of England. As to the vacuum cleaner reference on the sound of 'N,' I would say the operation the machine on a bit too stronge."
Professor Hall used a microphone, a sound filter, an eathode ray tube and sensitized paper to "photograph" the Midwest accent. The microphone picks up the sound wave, filters change it, the wave is changed to light, and the灯, playing on a sensitized paper, pictures itself.
Prof. E. C. Bushler of the speech and dramatic arts department, after several "off-the-record" remarks, made several
News Brevities
New York, Dec. 5.-(UP)-Girls who away when they walk probably will get married and live happily, and those who walk in a straight line are likely to be old mads. That is a conclusion of Professor William A. Black of Howard Mann School, who has studied posture for 25 years.
Tientsin, Dec. 6. - (UP) - Major-General Hayo Tada, commander of the Japanese troops in north China, warned today in an exclusive interview with the United Press that war between China and Japan might result if the Nanking government violates the Hoe-Unmei law among other things that China should not send troops into the large northern area.
Washington, Dec. 5—(UP)—Secretary of State Cordell Hull tonight warned the Japanese government that the United States is closely watching development in north China, particularly with reflections on Japan's treaty obligations in that area.
Washington, Dec. 5—(UP)—America's vast hoard of gold bulged over the ten billion-dollar mark today as the result of another influx of foreign metal, and now comprises nearly half the world's monetary stocks. Most of the yellow metal was secure in government vaults in New York, Philadelphia and other places to transfer to the giraffe depository now being built in the Kentucky hills.
Dr. A. M. Lee, of the departments of sociology and journalism, will attend a meeting of the American Sociological Society in New York City, Dec. 28. Or Dec. 30 he will go to Washington, D.C. to meet with the American Association for Journalism and the National Council on Research in Journalism.
London, Dec. 3, —(UP)—Foreign Secretary Sir Samuel Hoare, speaking in the House of Commons today, made an Urgent Appeal to Britain to maintain its trust to Britain's peace motives.

Dr. Lee organized a roundtable discussion on the study of the newspaper to be held at the sociological meeting "Pareto and the Newspaper," is the subject of this chapter. Before members of the American Association of Journalism Teachers.
PROFESSOR LEE TO ATTEND SOCIOLOGICAL CONFERENCE
The National Council of Research in Journalism is an elected body of nine men, of which Dr. Lee is secretary.
"Student speech is improving as a result of the influence of radio and the movies. Diction is better in the classes today than it was ten years ago. Students are getting a better idea of the art of speech, and standardization is runcination. Standardization of speech shall probably never be achieved, nor is it desired."
Thomas Minehan, official of the Minnesota department of education, was rather positive in his opinion of acetone. "I should accent make a noise like a vacuum cleaner? It is a very serviceable instrument that cleans up dirt deposited by other people. A Harvard answer? How sounds like the purring of a bolt cat."
J. S. Machin, professor of Sioux Falls College physics department declared "It is my belief, that a similarity in the photographs of similarity in the photographs of the sound—the sound of a locomotive might even be similar to Professor Hall's
A. E. Elo, instructor of physics at Marquette, said, "Any ordinary sound offhand may look like any other sound."

Premier Mussolini Plans To Reject Peace Proposals
Offer Fails to Meet Italy's Minimum Requirements for Territorial Expansion
Rome, Dec. 5—(UP)—Premier Benito Mussolini was pressed to turn thumbs down on the Franco-British proposals for settlement of the Italian-Ethiopian war, diplomats believed tonight.
This was understood to be the reason why the foreign office announced: "Ilya leaves no foundation for reason for optimism abroad regarding possibilities of the Italio-Ethiopian settlement."
Mussolini reportedly found the proposals unsatisfactory, failing to meet Italy's minimum requirements for ter- ritorial expansion.
Offer Proposed Plan
This is the plan France and Britain offer Italy before they go to Geneva to vote for sanctions on oil, coal, and metal needed for Italy's military strategy.

3. Ethiopia to cede back to Somalian land. Bight of Ogaden and Malawi. The north boundary would be a few miles below Sassan Banch and the east less than 100 miles from Addis Ababa.

A 1. a strip of northern Ethiopia drawn about Britain, drawn above a line extending between them and the Assumption, includes Anksu, Adigurat, and Aduwa.

2. All of the eastern Ethiopian low country connecting Eritrea and Italian Somalland.
3. Substantial commercial and other concessions in the Amheric highlands, with assurance that Ethiopian raids upon Italian territory would cease.
