--appeal to the Men's Student Council?
Forget that you were still in school and remember that you are twenty-one; a voting citizen of Lawrence; your dad a tax-payer; there's "law in these parts," and that you do want your four-bits?
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10, 1935
on the SHIN
BY JOE HOLLOWAY, c'35
It has always been our policy to at least attempt to start out every day with something of major importance; sometimes it's silly, perhaps too often it is, and again it may be something of serious intent. Today we offer some of the serious motif. When we say sadness that just exactly what we mean—not only is it serious, but it is coslassal, pendous, superb, and a fast motor as well. In this day the fast motor does not least, depressions airways, and last not least, depressions and Huey Longs, there has come a terrific change in everything. The wise lady who once blurted out without further ado, "The Old Order Changeh"—which does not necessarily mean that the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks has changed its rules and regulations—was no more than absolutely correct (see, we're back to the guy that said something once). Anyway, to work back to where we started, things, times, and stuff have certainly changed when we see that Jim Donahue, famed campus artist, well some other things, had taken up well some say knitting and used for croaking, and you slice it it, it's still the same thing. We aren't sure whether he's doing dainty things, little things, or just plain things—but the fact remains—Jim Donahue is crocheting. . . and so is the Prince of Wales.
Just a Couple of the Boys — the Prince of Wales and Donahue. Here Comes Another Letter . . Wells and Lamar Do the Light-foot.

We really don't want any body to think we like to gripe about something all of the time, but if this damaged weather would only make up its mind and stick to one temperature a little more closely we could get our health back a lot easier.
Well, we've unfortunately received another letter which we shall with all evil intent, shore off upon you poor unsuspecting public peoples. This time it's from Bill Blair, of the psychology lab department or something . . not quite sure what his official status is.
Dear Joe:
Your comments on the situation presented by the first year Law's suit against the University would also would do in the following very improbable situation.
Suppose you have purchased two tickets from a local theater and when you wanted to see the movies you were told that they were sorry but you were just too late. Suppose also that they relied on your money. Would you
Would you.
Manfully keep the sniffles back and
"Take It"?
Shake your fist in the manager's face?
Ask to the men's Student Council?
Personally, I hesitate to say what my reaction would be, for Ive been told that it takes kigs to assume the responsibilities contingent on one's age.
Signed—Rill Blair
From your letter Bill, we take it that you understand that we think Sutton has no chance, that he's foolish for doing such a thing, and a few other things. You're all wrong because we realize that he virtually has the management of the Union by the pants and will doubtless get his money—furthermore, he absolutely right in his protests, but may we say to you and anyone else that cares to listen—it still looks pretty silly—and thanks for your letter.
Speaking of Jim's crocheting reminds us of a couple more of the better boys who are taking to light-hearted pastimes. We refer to Dick Wells and Bob Lamar who have recently started taking lessons in ye revered old art of tau-dancing. If we were speaking in terms of just plain taps the thing would be more understandable but tau-dancing is a much different thing. We understand that the instructor is Ted North who did a little tap work in the musical comedy (maybe Ted will think this is advertising and pay us for it).

Benninghoff Discusses Japan at Noon Forum
Tart Replies Feature Malo Mock Trial Case
Dr. Benninghegfhe explained that we must not criticise Japan for what we call the invasion of Manchuria. "That part of the world has been invaded continuously for the last hundred years, if not by one nation, then by another. Japan feels justified in her occultation of the territory because of the refusal of other nations to help her cope with her problems and because it is imperative that she have more territory to accommodate her masses. Japan, in her invasion of Asia, is only following the precedent set by Western nations."
"Two words which sum up the condition of Japanese students and young people are 'dissatisfied and 'desperate,'" said Dr. Harry B. Bengingho, for 28 years professor in the department of Korean Studies at University, Japan, at the room forum in the Memorial Union's private dining room yesterday.
Waseda University Teacher
Says Oriental Youth
Is Desperate
"Unwelcome reception by Western nations and unfair treatment and consideration are in a large measure responsible for the disillusionment of Japanese youth. The failure of demonstration of Japanese government and institutions and the failure of the form of government in those very nations in the Western world which Japan took as her model, have served to heap confusion on the already muddled state of affairs," continued the educator.
"We must know the Japanese better if we would have security for all nations," Dr. Bennighoff added. "The Japanese know us much better than we know them. Japanese children are taught English from the sixth grade up. Most of their supplementary reading is in English, and, I can safely say, that 50 per cent of all Japanese people read English today."
Dr. Benmingoff came here from Manhattan where he has been one of the principal speakers at the World conference held there last weekend.

Alumni Get Together
An improptus alumni reunion took place recently when four ex-Jayhawkers held an informal banquet-takesthe at the Alwood Civilian Conservation Corps located in the wilds of Minnesota. The four were Milo Peterson, Eugene Benson, Hugh Jackson, and W. H. Livers.
Petitefish, A. G. Gilleland, 135; Myron S. Steere, 137; John Buehler, 135; and Robert Kaul, 135.
The defense counsel brought in three witnesses, Marcia Tuncerei, T35; Merl Tegarden, T35; and Mary Lotus Quintz Malde, the defendant to the testimony of Malde, the defendant.
In his testimony, Malo admitted firing the shot, but said he did so in self-defense, as Pet鱼他 and Hyland were approaching him in a menacing manner. He said he did not plan to use the gun when he returned to the library after being thrown out, but drew it as a last resort, hardly realizing the gun was in his hand until after the shooting had occurred.
Attorneys in the case, all senior lai students, are: defense. A: George Hulteen, Thomas Mustard, and Ogle Ashle; prosecution: Everett Blaklee, Henry P. J. Wilson, and Gerald Stein. The jury is made up of freshmen in the Law School, as follows: Fred Bachelor, O. S. Brewer, Robert Finley, Albert Harmon, R. Y. Jones, Charles Joseph, Reynolds砂掌, Lawrce Smith, Eugene White, C. R. Roderick, N. W. Jeet, and Bill Hazen.
Dean W. L. Burdick is acting as judge. The case will continue Thursday, when the concluding arguments will be presented to the jury.

Corleanor, vice president; and Prof. L.D. Jennings, secretary and treasurer.

Albert Williamson And Ross Borders Win Tie Elections
Medic Contest Was Decided by Flip of Coin After Reitz Tied Again For First
Albert Williamson, Pachacamac, and Ross Borders, Independent, were chosen as representatives of School of Medicine and the Law School respectively, yesterday. After the reopening of the polls to decide the ties which existed in the two schools, Williamson and Harvey Reitz, P.S.G.L., again tied, this time with 37 votes each. Borders received the most votes.
A coin was flipped to decide the School of Medicine election, and Williamson was successful on the first two flips. In the Law School it was necessary for a candidate to obtain a majority of the votes cast to become elected, but the official count was Borders 25, Marshall 29, and Coombs 25. Borders lacked two votes of getting the majority so Coombs' second choice votes were distributed between Borders nad Marshall. After eliminating four exhausted ballots, the final count was Borders 66, Marshall 36. After the count, Charles Anderson, chairman of the P.S.G.L., made the following statement:
"I believe that this election was the cleanest in years. A great deal of credit should go to the election board of the Men's Student Council, composed of Warren Plasket, Sol Lindenhaum, and Floyd Eberly, and Gunnar Mykland, president of the M.S.C., who made every effort to assure a fair election. I also wish to commend Lord Metzler, president of Pachacamac, personally, for the type of campaigning carried on by leaders of his party. I hope the campaigns of all parties in the future will be as cien as that of this year."
