--concerning censorship of reports from the Italian-Ethiopian war, Mr. Greenwood said: "The English press is not censoring any of the news about Ethiopia, but we are not reporting but no reports of the activity of the British fleet in the Mediterranean are being published. These reports used to come from the Admiralty of the English navy, but they are now given to the English newspaper."

Here is a story concerning apple polishing in a big way.
A certain rhetoric class has a very nice young man for instructor. Because of this, a certain Freshman class offer thought that it would be a good thing to have an apple shower for him. The teacher was surprised Friday was chosen as the appointed day. The apples were placed on his desk with the following note written by a W.S.G.A. member: "Dear teacher; We are giving you these because we think that you are a swell teacher; We are giving you a peck of apples; we contributed."
Monday the instructor reported that the apples were very good, did not contain poison, and were not polished. The apple pie was good; the apple pie for dinner Sunday.
We were warned not to print this, but it is too good to miss.
It seems that the Whiteford sisters, Margaret and Elizabeth, had dates on the same night some time ago. While it is not known where they went, a good time must have been had by all. The children naturally quite naturally invited the boys in for awhile. When time began to hang heavy on their hands, the photograph album belonging to one of the sisters was brought forth. (There is always entertainment in a photograph album). Near the end of the book a picture was discovered which must have been a jewel as the dates immediately saured. What knowledge will we know that picture? If you want to ask Elizabeth,

LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 20. 1935
The instructors in chemistry who received a cake last week have worked out the following formula which shows that there will be no more cakes for the purpose of obtaining grades. The formula states: That cake baking is inversely proportional and that baking is inversely proportional to beauty. Therefore, any good cook will not have to bake a cake to obtain a grade, and the instructors are left out.
Said the student who received a failure in chemistry, "this is all I learned in chemistry," he poured some milk on the dinner table without spilling a drop.
The only things that our campus "Marlene Dietrich" has not been seen with are men, cegars, and pipes.
And another found on his desk in-stead of apples, a cat. And this is a civilized country.

Now we know why there are so many freshman capions around. It seems that the Beta's must wear caps or — perhaps the admins at home never did any good.
When Field was born, the godmother who kissed him on the head must have been wearing cheek lipstick. . . . One day he came home to a corpse on the campus who is now in his second childhood. . . .

'Phono-Varsities' Continue
Musicians' Union Still Refuses to Meet Cochrane's Terms
Phonograph records will continue to furnish the music at the midweek variations, it was decided as a result of a group of the local musicians' Union last night.
Bill Cochrane, manager of the Memorial Union, had offered a counter proposal in reply to the musicians' demand that scale wages on the midweeks be raised to $3 per man, but the Hill bands in their meeting last night refused Cochrane's terms and the dances will continue they have for the past severa weeks.
--stated Mr. Shuttleworth. He mentioned that Hamsay McDonald resigned from prime ministership three months ago and that the former premier would probably retire from political life entirely.
University students interviewed last night reiterated their dislike for the musicians. "They were an opinion that University authorities and the musicians would be able to come to terms soon and restore the Hill bands as well as entertaining music for the midwinked舞会."
The college calls attention to the mid-semester period of advising for freshmen and sophomores who have missed some of these two classes should report to their advisers without failure. "In this way only," said Dr. J. H. Nelson, executive director of all of its course's advisers and its office hours are posted on the bulletin board in the office of the college office 121, Administration building.
Students Should See Advisers
--stated Mr. Shuttleworth. He mentioned that Hamsay McDonald resigned from prime ministership three months ago and that the former premier would probably retire from political life entirely.
It is too early to know the effects of the recent election in England, but it is likely that a number of Commons must soon assume leadership to prevent the growth of the Conservatives in the Parliament, according to these gentlemen from England.
When asked about the Co-operative Movement in England, Mr. Greenwood said that the movement would like to say that it feeds and clothes half of England's population, but that he believed it would be better to say that the Cooperative Movement includes one-fourth of the people of England. He mentioned that the "Co-ops" have had the widest effect in Denmark where the movement regulates the agricultural side as the industrial side of production.
Mr. Greenwood is from Balliol College at Oxford, England, and Mr. Shuttleworth is enrolled in Gawthrop Hall. Their tour began in this country at Duluth, Minn., and the debaters go from Lawrence to New Orleans, where they spend a week University of Florida, and then to England via New York City.
The interview was concluded by Mr. Greenwood saying that news about the President and the United States government had papers than the news of England was handled in most American dailies.

List of Features For Homecoming Increases Greatly
Silver Jubilee and Large Celebration to Honor 1910 Football Players
Players
A new link in the long and novel chain of Homecoming Celebration events was added yesterday when arrangements were started to hold a reunion and silver jubilee celebration for members of the 1910 during the two-day festivity.
This feature was added to the program as the result of a request received yesterday by Coach "Phillen" Allen from Levi Kabler, 112, a regular end tall staff member of 1910, now a successful banker and business man at Kingman.
The idea appealed to the Homecoming committee and to Dr. Allen as an excellent parallel attraction to add to the meeting of the class of 1911, to be held Thursday morning of the Homecoming celebration, since several members of the football team of 1910 also are members of the graduating class of 1911.
- Dinner Might Be Arranged *
Although no decision has been made in yet regard to what form the reunion will be, the team of the team will take. Fred Elsworthy secretary of the Alumni association, has suggested that a dinner might be arranged and some activities will take place between the halves during the Day.
Although not an ever-victorious team, the team of 1907 went through the football season which was one of the best in history and played in the University's athletic history.
Lost But One Game
The Kansas eleven lost but a single game out of a total of eight that season. Three times as many points were scored by the team as were tallied against the University.
There was only one game, that in which the defeat came, that Kansas did not make a score, while four of her adversaries failed to gain a single point. The first three games on the schedule—which are generally considered the season's dress rehearsal—resulted in the loss of seven players and eleven were from Ottawa University, St. Mary's College, and Baker University.
Drake was the first game played on opponent's grounds, and the University carried away a 6 to 0 victory. Washburn, playing on McCook field, suffered a 21 to 6 defeat, at the hands of the Jayhawks. The game with Nebraska followed on McCook field a week later. The Cornshucks succeeded in crossing the Kansas goal line and held the lead for over an hour, thereby gaining a 6 to 0 victory.
At Oklahoma City, Kansas won from Oklahoma University by a 2 to 0 score. In the final game of the season against the team emerged with a 5 to 1 tie.
Notable on that team of 1910 was Tommy Johnson, who is referred to as the "first quarterback ever produced." He excelled in every sport. It is said, in memorial to him, that he gave his life for football and for his University, for, in the game between Kansas and Missouri in 1910 he scored a goal, a year later resuited in his death.
Team Now Is Scarcity
The 1910 football team, scattered now to new hometowns, made up of the following men: Tom Johnson, deceased, quarterback; Earl F. Ammons, c12 Tuba, Oakle, left end; Charles Woodburn, 112 Kansas City, Mo., left half;耳丁 Davidson, c12 New York City, left guard; Levi Kaberi, left guard; Mark DeMoss, I19 Vancouver, Wash., right tackle Ben Davis, '13 Pocatello, Idaho, right half; Ralph Smith, '11, Farlington, right guard; Franklin Lynch, e11 Kansas City, Mo., right end; Spencer Bailen '13 Portland, Orge, right guard; Matthew Carroll, herald; Harold Woodbury, '12 Joplin, Mo., right half; Harold Cowell, '9f- '11 New Hampshire State College, left tackle; William Price, '13 Los Angeles, Calif.; right end; Roy Heil, fs. '88 Topkick quarterback; Glenn F. Alp, topkick; Henry Abrams, fs. Long Beach, Calif. right tackle.

Young Republicans to Meet
President Says Gathering Tonight Will Be Very Important
The newly formed University Young Republican club will meet in the general assembly room of the journalism department at 29. The meeting is open to the public.
F. Quentin Brown, T38, president of the club, said, "This is to be a very important meeting of the club, and we are asking that all members make a special effort to attend. During the past three weeks, there have been many inquiries from various students who are interested in organizing an organization, so we are urging all students and others who are interested in working with Republican groups to attend this meeting. The general program for the coming school year will be outlined and we will work out the preliminary details for club participation in the coming state convention of Young Republic Clubs of Kansas."
An effort is being made this week by club members to reach those individuals in various Hill organizations who are interested in participating in the club's activities. Some of the officers indicated that a concerted membership campaign was scheduled to begin soon after the Thanksgiving
Fund for Will Rogers Memorial Is Growing
Student Interest Runs High in National Project at University
The Will Rogers' Memorial fund is receiving the active and enthusiastic support of the student body of the University of Kansas. Expressions of aporation have been expressed in the student body attest the popularity of the late pole-playing columnist and actor. Co-operation of almost all the fraternities and sororites has been seen.
Florence Elizabeth Lebrecht, president of Kappa Alpha Theta, said, "Wil Rogers afforded so much joy and pleasure to all of us that we should be glad to contribute a small amount to fur- rance and work that can be done in his name."
Columnii Prises Rogers
Roy Woods, Kansas columnist, expressed interest in a campaign that the most sensible campaign or drive ever put on in these parts is that which concerns the Will Rogers Memorial fund. No other man, woman, or child ever did so much for the public as Will Rogers, so you might dangle a nickel in his case. Don't bet against him because we hold a column; his was really good."
Dana Duran, president of the Senior class, and president of Phi Kappa Pai believes, in his own words that, "Anything to commemorate Will Rogers is important." Everyone else would appreciate. College students should be glad to have the opportunity of contributing to a memorial for the nation's hero. It is the sincerely belief of John Chandler, editor of the Jayhawker, that "The projected Will Rogers Memorial is a tribute to the one of the outstanding men of our times. It deserves the whole-hearted support of the entire nation."
Promise Full Co-operation
Nailor, Captain, president of Kappa Alpha Pfla. Mission; brotherly brothers as well as himself thus.
"Sure, we're for it!" Will Rogers was close to the youth of America and his fine spirit that gained him the admiration of a continent may well be emulated by an American cooperation from us of Kappa Alpha Pfla.
It is a fine commentary on a man's character that he can obtain the undivided approval of an entire nation after his death. Such men are rare indeed, and they should be set aside and rewarded for their bravery that were honored and admired in life.
HOMECOMING REGISTRATION TO BE CONDUCTED BY W.S.G.A.

"In all things practical," planning count for the most," she said.
Vocations should be Studied
She stressed the importance of finding or creating a field, whether or not the field is over-crowded. One of the assets of a successful career is contact, according to Mrs. Hudson. "You have to know people, and to like them. Do not let your meet-up disrupt much 'policy,' 'overeer,' she said.
In a talk at Watkins hall last night, Mrs. Hudson discussed the increased opportunity for the college-trained girl to work in her field and urged every girl to fortify herself with secretarial training before she applied for a job. Stenography may serve as a wedge whereby a girl can make her career in her profession. Mrs Hudson said.
