TUESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 29, 1935 GO TO IT Freshmen, contrary to the opinion of many people, are quite able to take care of themselves. Nearly every day they bring forth some new manifestation of this fact. When the K club gave up the enforcement of tradition, Freshmen did not leave a sigh of relief, throw their caps away, and promptly forget that there was such a thing as tradition. On the contrary they almost immediately formed a group that had for its main purpose, the upholding of the practices and customs that have become sacred to University students. They do not intend to let tradition die. They even took first steps toward the establishment of a new tradition. Saturday, they attended the Aggie game in a body, and assisted the pep organizations. It is worthy of note that they wore their caps. Yesterday morning, students coming on the hill saw Freshmen distributing hand bills that beseeded other members of the class to "Rally to the support of the Freshmen Independent Movement," and to help "smash the machine." Just what machine was referred to is slightly indefinite, but perhaps the Freshmen know. At any rate, these new students are getting into the swing of college life. Their actions show that they are not only willing but anxious to find their place in University life. So go to it Freshmen. Organize into a solid group. Become acquainted with the traditions of the campus. Smash the machine if you want to. Stir up trouble if you need to. But don't stand by and let someone else do your thinking and acting for you. Everyone of you jump right into the middle of any work your class attempts, and continue along the lines you have started. You have great potential power. Use it. The rule is that nobody is happier than the man who thinks he has bought a bargain, except the man who said it to him.—El Dorado Times. If the Ethiopians just had a few reckless automobile drivers to turn loose on the enemy, the tide of war might be turned in short order—K. C. Kansan. ORGANIZATION Organized houses and groups receive a great deal of criticism from outsiders for their participation in campus affairs. Any campaign can gain support by appealing to students to break the power of the organized groups. "Give the independents a chance. Don't let the combinés run the school," are popular campaign cries, and from them it would seem that organization essentially leads to abuse of power. Although this may be true in some cases, it is not a general fact. When the University attempts an activity of some sort, a charity drive for example, the administration first appeals to the organized groups. If they do not respond, the campaign stands an excellent chance of failing. If a gathering of students is needed, as in the case of a rally, the organized houses form a large and important nucleus for such a group. When the University acts as host to outside organizations, fraternities and sororities are often called upon to entertain and accommodate the visitors. Homecoming, one of the largest celebrations the University attempts, depends to a great extent upon the organized groups for its success. So in condemning organizations and groups that exert an influence over the campus, it must be remembered that if such organization did not exist, many student activities could be carried on only under a decided handicap. Organization may not be all good, but certainly it is not all bad. Campus Opinion Articles in this column do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the University. Daily Kavan, Articles over 200 words in length are subject to cutting by the editor. Contributions on any subject are invited. one independent women of the University have their chance and now it is up to them. If they really want to be represented in the offices of the classes of the University, they must make their first attempt now, and organize. To succeed they must get back of their candidates and help push them over the line to a goal. The independent women outnumber the organization women a great deal, and if they succeed they must be to fair, the independent women must be represented. Editor Daily Kansan: If one judges the worth of a candidate by what social organization she is a member of, the whole political set-up will likely be the same *do*—nothing group that it has proven to be in the past. If the capable independent women will have the nerve and fortitude to get in there and fight for their choice, they will succeed. The fight's on, and may the independent women win! An Independent Our Contemporaries THE HIGH PRICE OF ATHLETIC FVCHusion The athletic department is undoubtedly the most important department in the average American college today. College and high school heroes are the star athletes. They are the ones who are given the soft jobs that enable them to go to school since officials feel that good publicity for the school comes with good athletic teams. And that is true since the throngs demand winning teams which they can summer and worship. Martin Lather Davey, governor of Ohio, a couple of weeks ago stuck his neck out and received nationwide publicity by revealing to the press how football players at Ohio State university were kept "legal to" "dear old Ohio." Davies said: "As far as the football season is concerned, we are all extremely interested in its success. We recognize the fact that football has become the supremous purpose of our lives." He also said: "We have most of the football squad on the state payroll." Newspaper investigators investigating the situation discovered 13 out of 57 grenier accidents held jobs drawing money from the state's college system. The governor covered $1,940 per year in one of the state's departments while another was a page in the state legislature at three dollars a day. We know of many college graduates who had been graduated their four-years, who would be to sbir to be earning that much. Dana X. Bible, great Nebraska university coach, noting the current situation, tells in an article printed in last week's "Country Gentleman" that is certainly worth reading of virtually having to pay gridmen. Another example of the valuability of sports is the comparative high salaries which sports reporters and sports editors receive in comparison with other newspapermen of equal rank. Bringing the situation closer home—we know of one boy who quit U.C. about two weeks ago to go to the University of Alabama to play football because he was offered a noiter job with higher pay at the latter institution. Oklahoma A. and M. boston a dormitory, Crutchfield, that is almost filled with athletes, nearly all of whom are working on college or federal jobs of some sort. (We notice no dormitory for the good scholars.) However, the athletes here who have jobs are given no special privileges and have to work in the sports arena. They would like to becompeted Appie athletic offices for this. Officials of no single school can be expected to stop the athlete craze. The public demands it and it will be very harmful to the first few schools that attempt to demote students or impede supreme importance in the life of the average school. It is only when officials of schools all over the nation get together and draw up rules much more strict than are the present that athletes will tend to divide into a minor place in the high schools, or be placed in grade level in the high schools and colleges of the United States.

JOB SEEKERS TO BE AIDED BY TRAINING IN SELF-HELP "Cats Needs Patience" The need for properly trained staff and active movement," said Dr. Scanian, "has become increasingly apparent to all who have watched the movement and who regard it as the most promising development in a welter of relief activities to solve the cat's needs in home-care rehabilitation of our unemployed. A new college to train leaders for the sciences, especially economics and soci- self-hep en-eoperative movement hasology. As their laboratory and clinic, the students are in the working Santa Barbara county co-operative industries, a local co-operative which has more than 1,000 members and is rapidly developing into a model project of its kind. Calls Needs Paramount Director of the new college is Dr. Ralph Schmitt, for the past several years professor of social science at Santa Barbara State College. A committee headed by Dr. Reyward Brown, head of the Santa Barbara clinic and associate professor on economic security, is completing the organization of the college. "Handouts of self-help co-operatives have been started throughout the country during the past year, after a burst of enthusiastic growth. According to a federal survey, the collapse in a great majority of cases was due to a lack of competent leaders." "Land and equipment are essential in the productive activities of the co-operatives, to mix with the labor and skill of their members, but equally important are leaders who can show people how to earn money, earn their own living and get off relief." School Stresses Technique "I is the purpose of the new college to train these needed leaders, teach them the technique of no-operative enterprise, develop a cadre of trained and applied arms and the applied sciences of well being, give them a rounded practical experience in the model local cooperative and send them out into the rehabilitation of the unemployed." Get Actual Experience Students spend their afternoon working in the various sections of the co-op and in the specialized varied experience. They also attend round-table meetings of the planning committee, held Monday, Tuesday and Friday evenings, as well as the Saturday addition meeting of the governing board. Class work occupies the mornings. There is a course in the technique of cooperation and the management of cooperative enterprises, under the direction of Hjalmar Rutzebck, director of the Santa Barbara county co-operative and formerly of the division of hell-bent co-operatives of the federal government.
