RED SCARE
We don't teach murder and robbery in our schools—why teach Communism? Words to that effect were credited to an army man in the March of Time radio program recently in a discussion of the current red scare in Washington. It seems that teachers there are being required to sign statements to the effect that they have not taught or advocated Communism in their classes.
We have heard asinine statements made before. But we have have never heard an asinine statement made with absolutely no thinking such as this one.
Of course we don't teach murder and robbery in classes. But we do discuss them because they are facts and are taking place every day.
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt made some very pertinent statements concerning the situation that bear repeating here. Said she, "A geography class, with the teachers saying, 'Here is an area two times the size of the United States.' It is lived in by people called Russians?' A bright child conceivably asking, 'What form of government do they live under?' The teacher possibly answers, 'Say, 'Me' or 'Or,' 'An地理 class, with teachers informing,' There is a place two times the size of the United States in which 150,000,000 people are living. I'm very sorry, but I can't tell you anything about it."
Indiana Daily Student.
A girl flies across the south Atlantic, without even one man along to tell her how to land. Next thing we know, the pretty things will be tying their own shoes and buying their cigarettes.
In other words, teachers don't necessarily advocate what they teach. But, as Mrs. Roosevelt inferred, you don't teach children not to burn their fingers on hot stoves by forever keeping them in ignorance of hot stoves.

Editor Daily Kansan;
I would like to know who is responsible for the management of the Cafeteria and whether it is run for the benefit of the students or as a profit-making enterprise. I think everyone will be interested in working at the University building should be run on a basis which would enable students to get good food at a reasonable price. I have no special fault to find with the food fallback I must admit. Few eat more tasteful than the prices, for a University Cafeteria, an ultimately esteemed institution.
Compare, for example, the "special" thirty-cent meal with meals available at a number of places in town for a quarter. I have eaten meals in a down-town restaurant costing twenty-five cents and consisting of a good steak, potatoes, choice of vegetables, salad, dessert, bread butter (if you want) and cheese to eat. You can have it or have to judge it on a tray before eating it. Furthermore it is good food; I know the cook and I know where she buys her foods. That restaurant is definitely a money-making establishment and obviously the owner must be making money, or he wouldn't stay in business. I know it can be argued that this small place does not have to pay a larger empolytee, but my answer to that is that neither does it have a large number of customers that the Cafeteria can boost.
Not only is the price of the meals at the Cafeteria much too high for what you get, but the other items on the menu also cut entirely too much. Take these for example two microscopic bits of toasted bread—half a breaded grenade and half a baked egg nesting in a bowl of shredded grass-10 cents, a dab of cola-sauce masquerading as a salad (because it recrimes on a part of a leaf of lettuce)-6 cents, two tueshes of friend and a pot of butter-3 cups (a half of butter) and a pot of cereal for 12 cents who make it you enough good for 12 feeds to feed Primo Carrera for a week!)
To the above crimes against man and nature, add
the fact that you have to shuffle along on a line before you can even buy them and the injury becomes almost impossible.
I know that some readers of the Kanan will say, "Why don't you eat some other place it doesn't like the Cafeteria?" The fact that there are more places for being it is it. I am a University student, and like a good many others, I feel that the Cafeteria should be like my students. From the look of things it certainly is not" S.S.
VICTIMS OF ABUSE TODAY— PILLARS OF PROGRESS TOMORROW
Students with a hard row to hoe in the University-
with few privileges and many hardships—would do well
to sit at the front.
When a woodman wants a timber to sustain the root of his cabin against the blasts of winter, he does not cut a tree that has grown in the valley, protected from the battering of wind and sleet. Rather, he goes to the hilltop in search of a tree that has been subjected to the hardships of rough weather.
The woodman hurts long for the suitable tree. So many of them on top of the hill are crooked and mishaps. Many of them would not make a suitable tree to grow in the garden, but straight cedar. It stands out against the sky like a giant; it is easily perceived among the rest of the trees. The tree with the most crown-trimmed is four feet in width of the blots of winter.
In modern society the burden of hardship falls on those who are able and willing to take it. And the achievement of great accomplishments is allied with the strain of many hardships.
The student upon whom the hardships of education are the weightiest has the possibility of either an extremely short life or of being taken in the hilltop. He will be chosen to do the hard things in his future society or he will be ignored because he was unable to meet the demands of his college. He is a powerful constitution and a tolerant and hopeful mind.
The student whose plight in the University is hard, but who can nevertheless obtain an education and override the hurdles of cynicism and discouragement, will be the man of the future who will stand head and shoulders, intellectually and morally speaking, above the rest of the crowd.
On him will forever rest the burden of hardships, because he will be the man chosen to do difficult things. But to him will be offered the invitation to be a strong man in a muzzled world inhabited by many weaklings.
On him will eventually rest the burdensome but reinscreable crown of historical immortality.

--his daring vitm, I wondered what he would say about my husband, his host and the ambassador of the United States, the never looked at him but he could tell me he had a friend. 'There's Mrs. Morrow,' he said, up there at the head of the table—well, I guess he to admit that she got a degree at Smith, but good heavens, what did he do with this person one day in Amherst and get herself a husband?" The shout that followed this sally shook the club. It was the hit of the evening, and nobody was more amused than my husband. The shout of laughter in Mexico and to have left him unscratched would have been a confession of weakness on Will Rogers' part. The cleverness of the attack through me definitely made no sense, no no no, no no no, no no no, no no no, no no no, not be wonderful!? was on every lip."

FLASHING WIT OF WILL ROGERS PREPARED FOR ANY OCCASION
Mrs. Elizabeth Morrow Relates to Comedian's Humor During Trying Time in Mexico City
Will Rogers was just as amusing at the breakfast table as he was on the stage in the evening, according to Mrs. Elizabeth Gibbard of New York to Mexico, the late Dight Morrison, and mother of Ann Morrow Lindbergh, who recalls a visit Rogers made at their guest at the New York City Museum for a short time in December, 1927.
"He was amusing and full of shreds, knowledge of human nature at the breakfast table as he ever was on the stage, but one speech made under his chin is Mexico stands out vividly in my memory," relates Mrs. Marrow.
"Dinner had been planned in his honor at the University club for the evening of Dec. 14. I believe it was rest known when the arrangements for Colonel Linderberg's arrival in Mexico City. In any case no one thought of anything but Colonel Linderberg and his flight that day. All Mexico waited for him in intense anxiety from the afternoon when he landed at Valbuena field amid terrific excitement. The crowds on the street as he was conducted to the Chaneyry and the delirium of delight of the city is indeterminate, yet welcome at the embassy are well known. I forget the University club dinner entirely until my secretary recalled it to my mind, and many guests were very late that night at the club where I waited, and had to be reminded of the occasion."
A Waste of Pity
"I As I drilled I remember feeling very sorry for Will Rogers. It seemed to me impossible that he could make any impression on a group of people from his background, but the moment of the day, I thought that it would be a humiliating and hard occasion for him. When he rose to speak I was distinctly nervous for him. He said: 'I'm going to tell you the sentence he held the whole room in the hollow of his hand. I had entirely underestimated his powers and his understanding of an audience. He knew how much pressure he put on himself and enchanted the guests. He began by reminding us that we were in a University club and said that he questioned the qualifications of many people and asked them a group: 'Where is your sheepkin?' he asked suddenly, pointing to a well brunched golfer near him. You brought your score card at the Churchaurope. He was amazed. He never did the long table calling man after man by name and giving him credit for something he could not do — horse-racing, polo, or resulting in a graduation."
Ancient Antics 20 Years Ago BY DLII
In the last 24 years, 1891-1904, Kansas has made 294 points to Missouri's 121 in the annual Thanksgiving football classic between the two schools. Kansas has a total of 14 wins, six losses and four ties. Let's make this another Kansas year. Chancellor Strong said in an interview that Kansas won, lose or draw. (The Kansas bureau of facts has now discovered where this reprehensible practice started.)
Every student should be vaccinated for small-pox says the University Health Service. "The ravages of a disease as seen in former warts is such to make a demand that students in it continue," it continues the Health Service spokesman.
The University Glee club will not sing at the KU.-M.U. game unless the student manager of the Missouri group has been admitted to the varsity club. (There must have been a bit of the temperamental artist in the Glee club in those days. They wouldn't.)
Adv.- Smoke Little Egypt, mild smoke 5 cigar. (In the days of a good five cent national cigar).
Chancellor强求 every student to wear an European Relief tag next Wednesday "a donation is expected from the students for their relief and the student got the tag, we'll bet if they turned tab tag over it said Stucker on the helmet got捆扣."
The Pan-Hellenic council is having its troubles on the Hill. There seems to be a lack of awareness of the 28 years (1975)Normal Angel will talk on "World Peace", soon (there will be warn and inform), or a normal Angel to talk of peace).
