J. I. Poole and Lloyd Rouk were the men behind the guns at the Delt party last Saturday, and, by the way, it was the first authorized scavenger team to hit the house course, we all been on a hunt of one kind or another up here. The contestors or guesse had only fifty items to find, take, or ask for, and some of these were: Long underwear, mustache wigs, a pair of jeans, a lace coat. Theygressed from the usual procedure by not asking the Hilr queens for her autograph on one of her dainties. This last process is much fun (when taken in the right
When two men arrived at the Corbin hall party last week, they were dressed to kill, wearing tails and all that goes with the same. In fact, they looked very presentable except that they didn't wear any pants. Which made some people wonder if the men had forgotten, or just didn't want the darn things.
One of the announcers covering the Missouri-Nebraska game Saturday deserves a word of praise or something. A Nebraska man was getting off a kick and the announcer said, "The left-handed kicker,kicked almost even out of bounds." What decision would the officials make on such play?
An A.T.O. pledge had a blind date at the Pi Phi house the other night, and he entered the door of said barn knowing only the date's hat name. A good fellow standing at the door showed the young man with his hands upon the pendant walked up to the girl and said, "Are you Miss Nelson?" But she replied, "No, Helen Nelson."
There are some things that Snoop shouldn't see, but it's all right to talk about such things. Over at Watkins hall a girl went to sleep in the bath tub, not for a minute, but for a half hour. Must be the pause that refreshs.
Heard something good concerning politics, but mustn't print it because my good friend on the council would be mad. Then, too, Hadley shouldn't be scooped because he's an up and coming news-coller of politics. But a big-shot on the Hill should be called "Conductor"; he should go at railroading;
Aggie Painters on the Spot
Want to thank Boosty for writing the column yesterday. Now there will be a new one. I'll be writing both hang down and stick up in front. Neither will I tell about the little affair where she rolled a pumpkin across a street that we saw earlier, so we call her "pumpkin nose."
Investigating Committee Is To Sen Report to Men's Student Council
No information concerning the recent painting of the Kansas State College campus has been received here by the Men's Student Council, following announcement from Kansas State that the damage of some of the painters were known.

Lynn Field, president of the Men's Lyman Council, said late yesterday atertion that no official communication bad come from the Aggle council sine the affair happened, shortly before the Kansas-Kansas State game.
At that time, a telegram was sent to the Kansas State council from the local council, regretting the incident and expressing the belief that the painting was stolen. Mr. Peters' team had evidence in violation of a truce signed several years ago by the two schools.

"Not what you think," answered an official of the athletic department. "It is Bermuda grass, and no matter what care you take of Bermuda grass, you can't prevent its turning brown with the 'first frost.'
"What makes the grass in Memoria Stadium turn brown?"
The color of the grass in the stadium strikes a very obvious contrast with the color of our regular campus grass. Many college teams that play basketball perhaps football cleats were killing it or that it was planted too thickly, or that it was watered too much, or that someone had spread a canvas blanket over it and then sent the team to a sport department denies all such statements.

"False Gods" Considered Outstanding Production
All Players Give Excellent and Accomplished Performances
The second night of "False Gods" proved to be an even greater success than the first. It is one of the most outstanding productions ever attempted by the University dramatic department. "Mary Rose," produced here several years ago, has been considered by the staff of the dramatic department as the most outstanding Kansas Players in recent years. The statement that he believed that this production of "False Gods" would surpass even that well-known play.
"False Gods" presents to the students of the University some of the finest players in Player productions. Professor Crafton's portrayal of Satni is powerful, and the role gives him more opportunity to showcase his ability than any of his recent roles.
Mrs. Crafton's interpretation of Miers, the blind woman, will touch the heart of the most caloused observer in the world. Her performance in the role of Youma, the handmale who is chosen to be sacrificed to the River Nile. A bit of drole bumor is injected into the play by a woman named Neo tchik and Normi, two ignorant slaves.
Bob Cunningham, as Bitton, the dwarf sash who kills Satin in the end, turns out a skilful piece of character work. His posture, make-up, voice, and hideous laugh, all blend together into an excellent characterization.
Prof. Robert Calderwood plays two roles, that of Pakh, Satiin's father, and the coach, who has taught his fessor Calderwood out a finished performance in both roles. The play is set against Pakh's home.

BLIVEN PREDICTS MISERY UNLESS THINKERS RALLY
In Brilliant Address Before Interested Crowd at First of M.S.C.-W.S.G.A. Forums, Fighting Editor of New Republic Presents His Views on 'Future of Liberty'
Proportional System i
Voting Is Explained
by Wilbert
Freshman Candidates Presented at Meeting
Speaking sincerely and with a power to convince such as few speakers have, Bruce Eliven, fighting editor of The New Republic, last night in Memorial Union ballroom declared to an enthusiastic audience of nearly 500 persons that the world will know more misery in the next thirty or forty years than it has ever known in modern times, and that unless our best thinkers are given a rein free from suppression in attempting to solve the difficulties, civilization on as high a plane as it now enjoys will be dissolved. Eliven, talking about "The Future of Liberty," was the first speaker on the combined M.G
The freshman candidates came to grip yesterday afternoon for the first time in the election campaign, and freshman voters were given an opportunity to size up each man on his merits. Paul Willen, chairman of the Men's Student Council committee on elections, called his fellow candidates out which he introduced each candidate.
There are four candidates for dance manager, with two to be chosen, so there is a remote possibility that proportional representation will play a part.
By Dale O'Brien, c'37
Wilbert first explained the system of voting by proportional representation, which will be used in this election, and then explained how he could convey the explanation to their respective groups. However, this system will apply only to the candidates for dance manager in this election as that is the only group in which there are more than two nominees.
The presidential candidates, Paul Moritz, Independent, and Phil Buckz, Pachacamac, spoke briefly to the mixed group yesterday, and each refused to give ground. Buckz stoutly maintained that Pachacamac had the interests of the freshman class at heart, and denied the assertions of Independent speakers that it was a fraternity dominated by new Independent group with being the creature of the older Progressive Student Government League.
Partisan feeling is running high, and there is a very distinct difference of opinion between the leaders of the two parties regarding candidates. Wilbert foresees a close vote, and has made every preparation for inuring a fair election. He reiterated his intention of enforcing the law against him, but he would recommend the maximum punishment of loss of five hours credit for fraudulent voting.
Mortz denied these charges, and said that his group was formed as a protest against government by a machine. He refused to enter into a discussion as to whether the organization indulged in fraternity bathing, and said that they were not involved in whatever was controlled by fraternity or non-fraternity men.
"The Freshman Independent movement was formed to forward the interests of the hitherto unrepresented major," he said.
Wilbert presented each of the other candidates to the assembly, and outlined their qualifications. The Pacchiae ticket includes Dick Newlin for treasurer and Don Woods and Protractor Chris Tippett for treasurer, Charles Yeaman for treasurer and Walter Hildebrand and George Russell for dance managers.
Wilber closed by saying that he hoped all freshmen would co-operate in working for the betterment of the class after the election, and that he knew they would be well represented no matter which of the candidates won.

"I would define liberty," he said, "as the opportunity for the human life to live out his normal life cycle with freedom, security and peace of mind regarding the future. In modern times, we have come about as close to liberty and freedom as civilized peoples ever have. The ancient Athensians enjoyed a great measure of what might be called freedom, but their security was based on the slavery of thousands of men. It is constant danger for them and foreign wars. It was superficial."
Bliven drew an analogy between the freedom of the Athenians and the freedom of the middle class Victorians, who were greedy, in that the independence of the middle class Englishmen was founded on the virtual slavery and the abject poverty of the proletariat of the time at the outset of the machine age.
"We Americans," he said, "are among the few people in the world who enjoy a fair political freedom and a freedom of utterance. Of all the people in the world who live absolutely without freedom of expression, five hundred million of them in countries such as Austria have only a medium amount of such freedom, and only the 230,000,000 remaining have the medium of speech such as we Americans enjoy."
**Loyalty Oaths in Twenty States**
With an expression of alarm and some concern, the students in the rising tide of intolerance sweeping this country today. He spoke at length about the stipulation of war, and the officers are forced to take in many states.
"Two years ago only three or four states had them (loyalty oaths). Now there are such laws in over twenty states. The ridiculous aspect of them lies in the theory that forcing teachers to take the oath will make them loyal to the Constitution and that should there be any 'Reds' in the school systems, they would not face fear and escape from the country at their first opportunity. The oaths only furnish opportunities for blackmail and intimidation of the teachers.
Bilven continued to explain that repressive measures in the United States are not confined to the teaching profession. "It reaches every conceivable dimension of the lives of dolphin Heart, that great publisher of papers for illustrators, and men of his kind, are behind these repressive measures. Their false stories of radicalism reach and influence to a greatly damaging exoskeleton of their unthinking reader electorate.
"But what is the 'why' of this suppression," he asked. "It is because the people are frightened. It is a perfectly natural means of trying to maintain the status-quo, but it is the wrong method of resolving it. If there ever was a time when absolute freedom of thought and utterance were needed, it is now better. We must be free from fear. Everything must and will be altered in our social and economic positions. We must have a substitute for our worn-out economy."
World-Wide Control Necessary
He explained that exportable surpluses are growing in all countries and that markets in all countries are deprived of international trade. World-wide control and regulation of wages, hours, production, exports, imports, etc., and that a tremendous reorganization of the entire world will be necessary to produce those changes.
"It might involve one or perhaps several countries," he said, a problem far greater than any one depression. We need all the collective intelligence that mankind has to get through the next decades."
