--the liberators are seeing the good side of life. A fellow entered the library for the first time this year, and asked if he could check more than one book out over night. The clerk at the desk immediately asked his working mate on duty, who came up to the uninformed fellow of library affairs, and as you can check these Bibles out for as long as you please otherwise no."

Politics must be coming to the front again. We have seen Herman Hauck, Pachamame big shot, making the rounds and running across the street as the freshmen are going to protest the election this year unless they can nominate the men for office without the aid of political parties. Don't worry, Herman will give one group of boys on their trust.

Closing of Suez Seems to Be Only Effective Weapon
Many Powers Back Away as League Is Faced With Enforcing Sanctions
An impression is growing that despite the League of Nation's best efforts, nothing less than intervention of the British navy at the Suez canal will be a sufficient penalty to curb Benito Mussolini's East African ambition.
(Copyright, 1953) by United Press)
Already the French press has been censored by Premier Pierre Laval for being so impulsive as to suggest such a thing, Laval wants to tread lightly and face such critical decisions only when forced to do so.
Nevertheless, it is indicated in Geneva that Italy can hold out against financial sanctions for at least 12 or 13 months. Financial authorities believe Italy can draw against gold and foreign exchange to approximately 650,000,000.
Of course no such protracted test is likely. the chief problem if the league imposes penalties is not so much the length of time it can hold out as it is getting the machinery of sanctions into action within the next two or three months.
Mussolini obviously doesn't intert to conduct a longy campaign. Within perhaps eight or ten months another rainy season will be upon Ethiopia and in Italian, lives to maintain them throughout that section would be terrific.
Rains Will Return Soon
the question becomes: Can the league seriously hamper it before Italian troops have attained their Ethiopian objective?
With this in mind, Capt. R. Anthony Eden of Great Britain succeeded Monday in having the league adopt a resolution to prohibit an action in enforced action if feasible by Oct. 31.
Many Powers Reluctant
But suppose Oct. 21 finds the league still in a state of disorganization and unable to bring effective force against Fascism?
There was no good reason Monday to suppose co-ordinated action could be achieved in that short span of time. Half of Brazil's military forces intently anti-British. Argentina is backing away politely because of its large Italian population. Austria, Hungary and Albania are unable to cooperate effectively with France, Ireland, Switzerland are reluctant.
The British say over and over that they will not act alone against Italy and Greece. They must choose of thrusting their navy between Italy and East Africa, or witnessing the collapse of the Allied forces.
Closing the Suez canal is the one sanction everyone—including Mussolini—knows would choke of the East African war. Will Great Britain take that weapon? World peace may hang on the answer.
LEAGUE HURRIES ACTION
Oct. 31 is Set as Deadline for Effecting Economic Sanctions
Genova, Oct. 14- (UP) -The League of Nations accelerated its cumbersome punitive machinery tonight in a race to secure control of the region. Setting Oct. 31 as the deadline for the effecting of financial and economic sanctions the Geneva powers hope to force Mussolini to use for peace before they reach their objective in Ethiopia.
France and Britain joined in $u_{rb}$ that the league throw its full force into the penalties as hastily as possible

Cunningham Returns With Jackrabbits as Part Of Sheep Herd
Glenn was employed one summer on a sheep ranch in western Kansas, in the past year he created creatures. One evening, he was very late in returning his charges to the fold, and, when he finally arrived his employer questioned him as to the reason.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1835
A new story released through George O. Foster, registrar, concerning Glenn Cunningham, famous Karsass miler; is scoring a hit on the Hill.
"Well, boss," replied Germ, "I had no trouble with the sheep, but some of those lams led me a merry chase before I could bring them in."
Curious to learn what kind of lambs had become so perverse, the rancher peered into the corral and discovered twenty or thirty jackknabbits running frantically around the fence, seeking to escape.
CSEP Students Average 1.61 Points Last Year
Minimum Grades This Year Will Be Even Higher, Olsen Believes
CSEP students had a 1.61 grade point index average for the school year, 1954-35. This average was secured by taking the grades of 488 undergraduate students who were on the payroll last year.
In figuring this average, the University officials included the grades of 50 students who were dropped at the end of each semester. They also cause their grades were below a C, or a one point average. It also included 10 students who had managed to make a C average.
These students were carried on probation, and dropped if they did not raise their standings. Another class of students who failed the course also counted in this average. This included several students who were failing in some courses, and were advised to drop their CSEP work. All of these students also freshmen, or first year students.
Last year, in taking applications for CSEP work, no student was considered whose grade point average was below 8.0, the undergraduate student body, 1.31.
This year the grade point average was not based on the average for the classes, but rather on the grades made by the whole CSEP group. Using these grades as a basis, the CSEP committee set the minimum grade point average for each student at 1.5.
"I expect the minimum grade point average for all applicants next year will be higher than 1.5," Miss Mary Olsen, secretary of the CSEP office, said yesterday. "All students who are on the CSEP payroll are in school because they need to take special education. This means better grades, which in turn will raise the average." Graduate students on the payroll must have an average of at least two grade points. When a student applies for CSEP work, he is required to send in his grades. These grades may be returned or dropped. If attended college; other credit colleges, or University grades. The average is figured from these grades.
New Amplifier Installed
With the arrival of a new amplifier, Bill Cochran, manager of the Union building, expects much better recorded mid-week-variety tomorrow night.
Records to be Played Second Time for Mid-Week Varsity
The present amplifying system proved inadequate for the large crowd that attended the mid-week last Wednesday. Cockrane expected the arrival soon of a new amplifier, several times more powerful.

Columbus Day Is Observed
The title page of another book bears this inscription—“Christopher Columbus: His Own Book of Privileges,” and was written in 1592. It was first translated into English, and was compiled by Benjamin Franklin Stevens, in 1893.
Ferdinand Columbus, son of Christopher, was a great scholar. He had acclaimed works which he was possibly the largest of his time, and he was making a catalog of it when he died in 1539. The facsimile of the manuscript of this catalog is on discontinued books.
Library Displays Interesting Books About Discoverer of America
Columbus Day is being observed in the student library. In the display case upstairs are some interesting old books.

Sociology Professor Deplores Students Parking Double on Campus
It seems, according to Miss Ellott of the department of Sociology, that the stigma of correct social relations is a major factor in heavy armors of student car-drivers.
Several times during the past week, Miss Elliott was late for class. Protestations on the part of her students forced a change in the students park their cars behind the Administration building, they ungrigiously take up enough room for two cars. As a result, Miss Elliott scribbled out while hunting an parking place.
As a special favor, Miss Elliott asked that some journalism student make known her cause. From now on, it's no parking--double-on Administration Avenue'. Miss Elliott asks it; her classes demand it; and courtesy requires it.

Serious Defeats Handed to Big Six Football Groups
Missouri and Iowa State Win The Games But Victories Aren't Important
The week-end just concluded was a disastrous one for the Big Six, as regards football.
Nebraska's hopes for a bid to the Rose Bowl went flying Saturday as the Cornhuskers lost to Minnesota by a score of 12-7. The Huskers were generally favored, but put, up against Iowa and Kentucky, they moaned many scoring opportunities. Nebraska was hampered in the second half by the absence of "Chief" Bauer, all-conference quarterback, who was removed from the game in the first half because of injuries. An attack of "fumblesticks" for the ball carrier, so helped defeat them.
Nebraska's Rose Bowl dream was shattered by Minnesota; Kansas was snowed under, 42-0, by Michigan State; Kansas State was beaten by Marquette; and Oklahoma bowed to Texas. Missouri and Iowa State were victorious in their games, but neither victory was especially important.
Kansas Loses to Spartans
Kansas lost to Michigan State by one of the largest scores a Big Six team has had rolled up against it in some time. The Jayhawks held the Spartans well in the first three quarters, but in the fourth quarter they brought up 28 points to bring its total to 42.
Kansas State suffered its second straight defeat, this time losing to Marquette 14-0 "Red" Elder, the Wildcats' slashing fullback, was again uninformed in the fourth in four knee. Marquette scored its two downs in runs of 30 and 54 yards.
In the last quarter Marquette threatened most of the time but couldn't get to State one drive on its 1-yard line. The Wildcats drove to the Marquette 5-yard line at one time in the first half, but there the drive bogged
In the other major engagement, Oklahoma lost to Texas by the same score that Nebraska was downed, 12-7. Here, however, the game was not as close as the game at Lincoln. Louisiana has a win over Kentucky, the fact that they were beaten by only a two touch-down margin by Louisiana State. Louisiana State smashed down the up-and-coming Manhattan College of New York City team, 12-6. Saturdays.
Experts Are Guessing
Missouri's 26-0 victory over Colorado left the experts guessing. Although Missouri played the best game it has played in a long time, the actual strength of the team is still pretty much of a puzzle. Colorado wilted in the last half as a result of the heat, and at no time did it show an especially brilliant defense. Nevertheless, the fact that Oklahoma had more than Oklahoma did earlier in the year set the sports writers to wonder.
Iowa State beat Upper Iowa College 23-0. Probably the majority of football fans have never heard of the Cyclos, although Upper Iowa does have one claim to fame. It was one of the few undefeated teams in the country, last year. It went out of its class Sat., and it is likely not be one of the teams that will conclude this season with an unblemished record.
