UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
By JOE HOLLOWAY, c'35
"As We Listen to the Girls Sing," by J. B. Burpring Phientwing; or "Down Fraternity Row With Gun and Camera".
Having already forgot the original heading appearing above for the official OTS. review of the Inter-Praterity hearing, Mr. Fruzzi said you might have heard, was held Sunday evening in the Auditorium, we will forthwith call it "At the Frater-
The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas
First on the program was dear old Kappa and Stigma . . . they sank nicely, and yes, we know that nicely isn't supposed to be used in that way . . . they use it for them, but you could get on them for, so we'll let them go and turn the filly page to others.
At this time we wish to congratulate Prof. Crafton for the mighty manner in which he did the mastering of the ceremonies at the doings. . . his eras are richer and more vivid than say the least, he added an additional touch of gayety to the evening.
Next we must deal with dear old Phi Gamma and Delta . . . which body of budding larks *Brother* Cration introduced as a bromine but then they did manage to get together later. Of course they had to come out with their drinking song. There were two good things here. The singer was well, well, well, and the other is that the atmosphere created by the song matched very nicely the stains on the Phi Gam banner hanging against the back wall of the studio so that I can say that the stains came from beer bottles though. Here's a rose for "Small George" Guernsey — on the Crimson Band, like it in fine style on the cadenza . . . was a good imitation of a bass horn.
Since we're sure that you are getting impatient for the next—ladies and gentlemen, we give you **The Beta**. At first everyone was a wee bit frightened. When I got home thought it would cave in with so many fellows but by straining a few, they managed to make it, and of course the high spot of the performance was the sparking brilliance of the famous Field Hair. But indeed she had insulted the entire repertoire to the "maker of men — Theta Pi — to say the least, they got some good licks in—for themselves. A very sad song happened after the song-fest was over. We had a new word, announced as every sense of the word, announced as the winner **Beta Theta Pi** and then proceeded, after the applause had died down, to keep on announcing to the effect that they had won third place and not first as was the tradition. And this was the most dull indeed but furnished a good laugh. We thought surely they must have won the thing—thought so right from the first even because we saw that Sir Reynolds Sands in person was going to play at that and that there is a plaque at least.
Just a word about the Sir Alphas. they had a most impressive leader to put everything he had, and somebody else too, into instructing a collegiate choir
And in the true Phi Mu manner, we come to the Phil Deltis—recipients of a class that has been treated to everybody in the other houses perhaps) and winner de laux of the LFS. (Inter-Fraternity Sing. To begin with, the girls really looked sweet in their dresses; nets, nels, and no matter how much it hurts, a white carnation for each—just so in case the singing was slightly odiferous, the smell of the carnation would be more noticeable; the boys looked nice, but, and it hurts us to say this—none other than Joseph Scott Payne Jr. He was only one on the front row and he sat quietly behind me. Little red hands behind his back. Instead, they were folded comfortably across his mid-section just as though he'd recently finished a fine meal—and that's not true. Such stuff, Joseph.
And now to get down to a little business—may we offer congratulations to Mu Amin Fathi, our dear friend and Sing possible, and here'he hoping the practice is continued so long that even in the mind of a professor of sociology it will become a reality.
We fear that our tried and true friend "bodyguard" Lemster is having a bit of a relapse — he was drawing pitchers on his hand yesterday in class.
'Tis said that psychology profs are sometimes a bit on the screwy side. Witness therefor, that Prof. Brown is an expert in mental games, sporting himself on a pair of roller skates Sunday morning with his daughter, and forsooth, wier men than Ling Po have to deal. The skater is not screwy, 'tis fun, no less.

Ruth Shaw to Lecture Here on Finger Painting
Author Will Speak in Administration Audi-
Miss Ruth Shaw, authority on finger painting, will lecture on "Finger Painting and Mental Hygiene" tomorrow after a presentation at therium of the Administration building.
torium
Miss Shaw is the author of a book entitled "Finger Painting" and is widely known for her method of teaching art to young children. In recent years, she has had phenomenal success in employing her method in psychopathic cases. She is at present giving a brief course on finger painting for girls in Kauai City.
She has spent several years studying in famous art schools of Europe and has studied in Rome, Paris, and London and now has a studio in New York City.
Her method has the support of recent studies in psychology and neurology. It not only achieved success in interesting children in creative art, but also in helping emotionally unadjusted children to fear fears and other emotional disturbances.
Some time ago, Dr. R. H. Wheeler, professor of psychology, saw Miss Shaw demonstrate her method and saw hundreds of paintings done by children ranging in age from 2 to 12 years and even older. He considers her method of introducing art to children a superior tool for normal and underdeveloped children.
The lecture is open to the public and will be of special interest to teachers and parents.

Roosevelt Listens, But Continues Veto Measure
President Not Convinced by 'Missionaries' of Printing Press Monev
By Mr. Harry Ferguson United Press
Washington, May 20—A score "missionaries" from the house of representatives, afire with the gospel of printing press money, spent 30 minutes today to convert President Roosevelt to the Patman bonus bill.
They were wasting their time and breath, and they knew it.
Mr. Roosevelt listened to the bonus steering committee of the house—the men who guided the Patman bill through congress—and then picked up his pen and went ahead completing the draft of a proposed bill for a $2,000,000 issue of greenbooks.
The "missionaries" hurried back to capitil hill just in time to hear the house approve a resolution for a joint mission; they had no time, if the senate approves the resolution, Mr. Roosevelt will do something no other president has done—deliver a veto speech.
Immediate consideration of the resolution by the senate was sought by Democratic Leader Joseph T. Robinson Democrat, of Arkansas. He asked unanimous consent for it, but the Republican were in no mood to yield.
Some time between now and Wednesday, the Senate will vote on the resolution, but there probably will be considerable speech making.
