SING SING!
The Inter - fraternity sing planned for this Sunday ought to be some fun if the chairman doesn't get up and stutter, "We are glad to to announce is-the first annual fraternity sing-ing."
If we remember our fraternity songs at all, their general attitude of delight with the particular group singing they ought to be rather humorous. Every contesting group will more or less be singing that they are the salt of the earth, the only flower true and fair, so why not give us the prize?
Maybe there could be a sort of Messiah chorus to end the contest, with all the competing groups from Alpha to Omega blaring "We are the best, my old fraternity true, we lead the rest." Or something of the kind.
THOSE BRAVE POLICEMEN
Two representatives of Pendergast's Kansas City political machine performed their duty as patrolmen nobly last Saturday when they captured Howard W. Swan and broke his arm with an iron claw, new substitute for hand cuffs.
The reports of the arrest are at odds. Swan denies that he had done anything for which he was liable to arrest, but the officers say that they thought he was a "desperate character." Swan denies that he resisted arrest and claims that he only remonstrated with him in being injured by Missouri officers. The patrolman said he fought them, splitting a lip of one of the officers—tsk, tsk.
In a story in the Kansas City Times recently Otto P. Higgins, chief of police, uphold the officers' actions and said that Swan probably broke his own arm. Swan is now charged with drunkenness, resisting arrest, and careless driving.
There are several queer sides to the occurrence. That any officer needs to break an arm with such a barbarian weapon as the iron claw seems improbable. Also, no one has explained why the chase was taken up in the first place. As for Swan's not stopping when he heard the police siren, he was in the neighborhood of Bell Memorial hospital where such sirens are heard often.
Higgins' justification of the officers' action is not incredible. All hold their jobs under the Pendergast machine. His boys were only trying to protect the citizens of Kansas City from the menace of "drunken drivers and desperate characters."
Swan is a contractor. Perhaps that has something to do with his arrest and treatment. This thought is furthered by the fact that Pendergast monopolizes the cement industry in Kansas City. Maybe this small contractor refused to use his cement.
Second Carruth Poem
--eyes Are shadows shifting rootless
(Bellor's Note: "Window" by Do a Veon Thompson, c'35, Lawrence, was awarded second prize in the Carruth Poetry Contest. The committee wrote that the whole poem was somewhat too long to be reproduced in toto. These cuttings were made by Miss Alice Winston, assistant professor of the department of English. It is hoped that they represent the spirit of the whole poem).
WINDOW
My pantry window isn't very large But through it I can see a share o life
That passes by while I stand work ing.
There is a tall lean man who lives with garden truck
Paring vegetables. And washing dishes
His over-alls are clean. His carrots firm.
With simple dignity he goes from yard to yard.
(I've often wondered why the back yard always.)
He never tells me much, but in his nose
Are shadows stirring resensitivity
As though to hide the stinging
thoughtlessness
Flung by an impatient housewife.
I've often heard them pity me
I've often heard them pity m Because I must up so early, Working at my window.
Perhaps they're right. I know not For who's to definitely say
A life is wasted or well spent?
But this I do know.
I like the fellowship
Of morning's quiet dignity
To feel a tone with its calm sorenity Fills me with a pleasant strength. I enjoy a friendly morning.
As a woman with a smooth white forehead,
A captivating, quiet sense of humor
A woman ever calm, with an elusive smile
Which fascinates
Because it whispers of a shining secret
A gleaming secret, like a cool star
That lingers for a smiling moment
In the sky
Then swiftly hides itself away,
Then swiftly hides itself away.
Giving the new day something to
search for.
Working at my window,
Companion with the early daylight I know the peace that comes
With having certain fine desires To live for.
In a short time more,
1 make the world my own,
Carry it in.
And set it on my pantry shelf,
Mine to wonder at.
As I stand working at my window, Paring vegetables.
SENATOR BAKER'S GAG RULE
And washing dishes.
Within a few days, the Illinois Senate will be confronted with the Baker bill, which if enacted, will require all professors, instructors, and teachers in the public, private universities, and schools of Illinois, to take an oath of allegiance to the Federal constitution, and to refrain from promulgating information on the subject in public and social systems other than those in operation in the United States.
The Daily Illini, Daily Northwestern, and several other papers of private colleges have organized definite groups to defend this bill, and are appealing to their local senators for negative votes. The Senate has said that it can not help but feel, that their education and understanding of world affairs would be narrowed if their professors are prevented from teaching them the tenets of other governmental systems.
The Daily Northwestern editorial of May 7, enumerates four points against the bill. "First, we do not believe that; second, we cannot sound, the present situation requires its passage. Secondly, if the bill is passed, the effectiveness of many teachers will be seriously hampered . . . It will longer be possible for them to give that degree of respect and good, well-informed citizens of their students. Thirdly, the passage of the Baker bill would actually strike a harder blow at the Constitution than can be expected. The latter could still stifle. A sovereign way of making anything popular is to make it illegal. . . Fourthly, its passage will be bailed by reactionaries throughout the country as a sign that the day is approaching. Fifthly, democraticliberates can be swept away."
Baker, although he demands a public demonstration of national honesty, emits to forget that the constitution guarantees freedom of thought, freedom 4 speech, freedom of the press, the right to assembly, and religious clearance.
It is the belief of many that the hysteria that has seized so many otherwise has been exacerbated. It is extremely been responsible for the nation wide wave of anti-liberalism and anti-stateism.
Gift Memorial of $90 Made in 1899 Was First Scholarship at University
"I didn't know there were so many scholarships and prizes given," said one as he looked through the pages in the back of the program. "I had heard about scholarships when I was in school, but I paid no particular attention to them.
Two men, alumni of K.U., sat in the stadium last Commencement and looked through the program.
"These scholarships are some of the most important work facing committees during the year," answered the second man. "There is not much noise made about it, but no one can estimate the number of students in doing学生 through school."
By Archibald Oliver, sp.
What are scholarships and for what and how are they awarded? What obligations, if any, are the students put to in accepting them? Are they all loans or are some of them gifts? How are they administered?
The approach of the column of faculty and seniors toward the stands for the exercises ended the conversation, but people who give more attention to the students helped in job and prize matters knew that the second speaker had the right slant.
No student who has not been in school one semester can receive a scholarship and no student can be the recipient of more than one scholarship at the same time. When a scholarship is awarded, all other committees are notified.
Scholarships are grants or loans on money to students who are in financial need and who are doing creditable work in their studies. The money in gift scholarships is given outright. The money in loan scholarships is loaned for a specified time, and the loan bears interest. In some cases, and five per cent in others.
Each scholarship given is very specific in its requirements—whether it is to be granted to a man or a woman, in what department, in what year, and the like.
When the student makes application for a scholarship he is interviewed by the chairman of a particular committee and one other member. The scholarship granting or refusing is done by the same committee. In the investigation, the chairman determines whether Before the fall of 1923, several committees had charge of the scholarships. In 1932, the University Senate created a single Homes and Prizes Committee with Prof. A. T. Walker as chairman. In 1934, the university chairship committees acted as sub-committees. These sub-committees and their chairmen at present are: scholarship ship, Engenie G. Foster; student loan fund, Fund, O. G. Foster; Rhodes School scholarship, Prof. A. T. Walker; Bryan Essen Fund, Fund, O. G. Foster; and Lew Esavie Prize, E. L. Sison.
The Summerfield, Herbert S. Hadley, and Edwin F. Slosson scholarships are awarded to students from Prairie Point Templin is the head. The School of Engineering and Architecture, the school of Fine Arts, and the School of Medicine control the award of their

Probably the best known scholarships are the German Exchange Follows, the Summerfield Scholarships and the Watkins Hall Scholarships. The German Institute is a co-operative committee of which Dean E.

tion over their preparatory courses and a general final examination at the University. Approximately ten scholarships are given a year and are ordinarily renewed each year for three additional years. Allotments from the fund are based on a percentage of excess expenses incident in the pursuit of the scholar's studies.
Candidates for Wattkins Hall seminars for women are chosen on character and ability. These scholarships permit students to attend Wattkins Hall it a saving in expenses.
In some cases scholarships are revolving. In others they are annual. In a case where a scholarship must wait until money loaned out is paid back before making further loans. In the annual scholarships, the loan or gift is paid annually by the parties giving it.
If we count all of the Summerfield and Watkins Scholarships, about 55 scholarships were granted last year.

What is the difference between a fellowship and a scholarship? Fellowships are given only to graduates of K.U. or other colleges in Kansas in order to carry out research work at K.U. They are also expected to give about six hours a week to institutional duty. Last year, 125 fellows graduated from years there have been 29. These fellowships now carry an award of $360 per year.
Prizes for essay contents totaled 55 at last year's Commencement. Many of these are handled by special committees.

No scholarships were given at Kansas until 1899 when Mrs. Marcia Brown Howard established a gift memorial of $30 in memory of her daughter, Marcia Howard, the first women of the junior and senior classes in the college. In 1960 the alumnae of PBi Pho Sister Society established the Laundry School, the first boat biom of $20 for two years without interest to be awarded annually to women students in the junior and senior classes of the college. These scholarships granted at the University.
In 1901 the first schoolship committee was formed at KU. Prof. E. D. Adams was the chairman and the other members were Prof. Eranie Galoo and John Clement. Prof. Eranie Galoo and Professor Adams' departure to California in 1902, Professor Galoo became chairman and has served in that capacity to this time. At first the committee, after Professor Galoo became chairman, had five meetings, the number was increased to eight.
Management of the student loan fund is different than that of scholarships. For this aid the student can obtain an application blank from the Dear of the applicant and enter the Resistar. The student files the form and appears before the committee at its next meeting to plead his case. If he is approved, he will get only enough at one time to pay for his fees and books and will not be able to borrow loans from the fund is limited to $100. On the note must be the signature of a responsible endorser, and the student pays interest at 6 per cent from the date of loan. No notes are made out for more than one semester and must be tendered to a student until he has done a year's work in residence and never unless he is doing passive work and making progress toward graduation.
Karl Klooz, the bursar, attends to the details. Losses from default are negli-

Lawrence people are the ones who have contributed most generously to these funds. Living near the school they have seen the needs of the students, Civic,
gible and those due to deaths and other unvergabable causes. These losses have never equalled the interest payments received.
literary, patriotic clubs, social and professional sororities and fraternities are prominent in the list of those who have contributed.
In spite of these gifts, however, the committees at times, are forced to tell applicants that they are sorry, "but the fund is exhausted."
