The Measles Once More . . . a New Club and We Need a Costume . . . the A. T. O.'s Go Girlish . . . Just About the Pi Phi's.
This measles business is about to wear us all out but here's a pretty good one on Marvin Cox, an A.T.O. freshman. He rope up the hill the other day with one of the boys to take someone to the hospital who had the measles. Cox went on over to basketball practice, and when the brother with whom he rode returned to the house without him, he told someone that he left Cox at the hospital with the measles also. Later the torchy called up Cox, and the misinformed one told her that Marv had the measles. Sunday morning, bright and early, Cox was the recipient of a beautiful special delivery bouquet. We are told that the box contained several carnations which were just the color of the patient's face when he opened the

In talking about blue sky laws of Kansas in investments class the other day, Prof. Dade remarked, "You can keep foe from losing his money at home, but you can't keep the fool at home!"
There is a rumor of a brand new anti-club formed on the Hill. Details are meager, but it seems that the club, which meets once a week, has sprung up in opposition to the senior women's honorary society. More information will be available as soon as Blowers loans us his library-table costume.
There seems to be quite a little contreversy springing up about the letter written to McBride of the Star and signed by Jimmie Ashier, a Kappa Sig from Lawrence who is now in Boston. We hear that Papa Asher has blamed another local hoofer for bringing the letter, for signing of Jim's name. Wonder if it wouldn't be better to look for someone with a reason for writing it?
We put on our rancher's costume yesterday and found out that the A.T. O.'s are going to have a Mac West churn in the intramural Carnival. The members are Bebe Moron—no we don't mean that it's Beefy Morton, Long-John Seigle, Touch-Puss Eagle, M箭vin Cox, and Joe Cochrane. Here we thought the A.T.O.'s were rough, tough men of the soil, living out there in the wilds of Fourth street, and they turn up with a bunch of chorus lassies! We knew that Egue was co-captain of the wrestling team, but we didn't think that meant he could qualify for a Mac West chorus.
Saw a couple holding bands in the Library Sunday afternoon. Thought they might start playing "playing" under the table next, but they disappointed.
Just about the Pi Phi's. Saw a ducky little sight in the library Monday. One of the newly-initiated pledges of the noble lodge screwed her face up like Lady Alice the Goon and sneaked up behind Jo Hellings who was sitting at a table a few yards away. These new pins always seem to put new blood in the poor old veins of the fresh–must if they want to carry on in dramas like that in the library . . . and continuing in the vein of library and Pi Phi—don't ever sit between two tables full of them. It's like a mixture of an Indian stopper and the various rubies made when the Kayhaws resigned from politics. Jac Lawrence is pushing the Hill's best looking auto—the blue Ford. It’s a bit of a rest from the yellow machine anyway.

W.S.G.A. Elections Set for March 14 By Women's Group
Nomination Petitions Mus Be Signed and Filed in Dean's Office by March 11
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1935
The W.S.G.A. council at a regular meeting last night set March 14 as the date for the spring election of members to the council. A new feature of the election bill which was passed by the council several weeks ago and was read for the third time last night, is the nomination of officers through petition instead of at a mass meeting, which has been the custom in the past.
Patriot blanks may be secured at Dean Husband's office and must be returned to that place by March 11. A reply from the applicant will be posted as the patitions come in.
The new election plan designates that petitions for offices of the association shall be signed by not less than 25 nor more than 35 electors; petitions for class offices shall be signed by not less than 15 nor more than 25 electors; petitions for office of 2016 are represented shall be signed by not less than 20 nor more than 30 electors; petitions for Fine Arts representative shall be signed by not less than 10 nor more than 20 electors. The term "elector" shall include those women in each case who are qualified to vote in the election for the office for which the nomination is made. No elector shall sign more than one petition for any one office and shall be an elector. No elector shall be denied as to the petition or petitions last filed. With each signature shall be stated the place of residence.
Voter Marks Choices
By this method an elector may sign but three divisions of the petitions; those for the major offices, those for the offices of the college in which she is enrolled, and those of her particular class.
The provisions for the marking and counting of the ballots as provided in the bill are as follows. The voter, instead of marking an "X" for the candidate voted for will mark "1" after the name of her first choice, "2" for second choice, and so on. The votes are counted according to the transfer and elimination system and whenever at the end of any stage of the counting the number of ballots credited to a candidate is equal or greater than a majority of the valid ballots cast for the office, she shall be declared elected.
Cannan (signed)
Margaret S. Sherwond, CS, president of Mergers & Partners that by adopting this bill the council expected to accomplish the doing away of a mass meeting for nominations and to make it necessary for an officer to be elected by a majority rather than a plurality as has been done in the past.
It was brought out at the meeting that all women students were privileged to attend the council meetings, and any with constructive criticism to offer would be afforded an opportunity to express themselves. A woman whose please will be held March 11 at which an open forum will be carried on.
Plans were discussed for the furthering of a more democratic feling among women on the campus, and a number of tentative ideas considered.
To Debate Here Tomorrow
The Kansas team composed of Phi Bramwell, c36, and Hugh Randall, c37 will take the negative side. According to Prof. E. C. Buehler, director of forensics, this debate, the only one of its kind scheduled for this year, is unusual, for it will be decided on the basis of an audience vote.
A debate on the question, "Resolved: that Kansas should adopt the unicameral system of legislation, embodying the essential features of the Nebraska plan," is scheduled for 8 o'clock tomorrow when the University team meets the University of Missouri disaster center and the Central Administration auditorium.
University Squad To Uphold Negativ Side of Unicameral Government
On March 6 and 7, the two University representatives will debate the same question before Creighton College and the University of South Dakota. The debate at the University of South Dakota will be before an all-student convention and the speeches will be broad east and printed.
Edward C. Spencer, 27, son of Prof.
and Mrs. D. H. Spencer, visited his
parents over the weekend. Mr. Spencer is
a senior staff member at Pinnacle
company and lives in Chicago.

Comments on PSGL
"As chairman of the Progressive Student Government League, I am glad to welcome six campus leaders into our movement, Oti Brushaker, Lee Judy, John Berkelley, Quentin Brown, Lyman Field, and Chevy White. It seems to me that the men's student body, only one day after the announcement of our formation, is very eager to support a movement toward student government reform. Our program has appealed to these campus leaders, two of whom were former students in the last editions of the Kansan the first point of our program will be outlined in detail. Following that will appear, day by day, the complete program for reform of student government, by point—"Charles B. Anderson.
"It has been very obvious to all of us that both of the old political parties have been stagnating. Consequently it is with great interest that I am watching the third party group in the student action and should student action in student affairs. It is a much needed movement and should attract wide support." - Ois Brubaker.
"I think, if it turns out to be a permanent party, it will be a good thing for the student body. I believe it will give the students better unity and better representation. It has great possibilities in "Lee Audy, The Delta Theta."
Goldman Delivers Final L.I.D. Lecture Tonight
NUMBER 102
Chicago Labor Lawyer Wil Speak on Worker's Situation
Situation
Albert Goldman, Chicago labor lawyer, will give the sixth and last scheduled League for Industrial Democracy lecture tonight at 7:30 in the Uitarian church. J. B. Mathews, who has been announced as the speaker, was joined by Charles Engval of the Rev. Charles Engval of the committee of guardors.
Mr. Goldman, who will speak on "The Coming Struggle for Power," has recently made a reputation for himself as an attorney for the Non-Partisan Labor Defense. For the last few months he has been in Sacramento, Calif., defending some of a group of 18 workers against criminal syndication charges that resulted in a strike in the canning industries of the Sacramento valley. He has been credited with the release of two of the defendants.
The speaker is a graduate of the University of Cincinnati and holds a degree in law from Northwestern University. He practiced law in Chicago before his retention by the Non-Partisan Labor Defense.
The lecture, being given early to allow for the Ted Shaw dancers, is the last scheduled. An extension of the course has not been decided upon, but one will probably be given again next year.
Owing to repeated inquiries, Mr. Goldman will discuss the purpose and activities of the League for Industrial Democracy. The formation of a student wing of that organization is being considered by a group on the Hill. The student L.I.D. bases its platform on protection of academic freedom.
Raymond Eastwood, associate professor of drawing and painting, lecture last night in Spooner-Thayer museum before an audience of about 75. Speaking on the permanent collection of paintings in the museum, Professor Eastwood praised its excellence and value to the University.
Mr. Goldman will also speak before a Noon Forum today in the Union cafeteria at 12.30. His subject will be "Labor and the Law."
Pointing out many individual paintings, Mr. Eastwood spoke especially of Winslow Homer's water colors and some scenes by Mr. Frazer, former head of the department of drawing and painting here. Mrs. Fraser bought one of Frazer's paintings from him outright before it was even finished.
At the conclusion of the lecture, Professor Eastwood described methods of cleaning and restoring paintings.

Ted Shawn's Male Troupe to Appear Here This Evening
Phog Allen Praises Work Done by Noted Group in Pioneer Field of Dance
Ted Shawn and his athletic troupe of seven male dancers will appear in a variety assortment of dances in the University Auditorium tonight at 8:30 p.m.
"Schools of physical education are taking advantage of the recent awakening interest in dancing for men to foster programs and classes in dance forms that are adapted to male interests and physiques," said Dr. Forrest C. Allen, director of athletics, yesterday afternoon. "Ted Shaw, pioneer in the field of dance form for men, has been manned, possessed of all the physical skills required in the athlete, precondition, strength, fluid muscles, split-second timing, and trained them to dance masculine 'hemes of labor, play, and religion.'
"Some of his critics scoff at the idea of men dancing; others do not know what to expect; but many physical educators and athletic directors feel that here is something in physical development for men that combines the appeal of an athletic exhibition with the inspiration and satisfaction of art. Certainly the contribution of Shawn's group is significant and worth seeing." The evening's program will consist of:
I. Music Dances; "Polonaise" (Edward MacDowell), Esemble of Six; VI Prelude' from the 'Well-temple' Clavichord (Bach), and 'Clavichord' No. 4 (Grunn), 'Rhapody', Op. 18, No. 4 (Hrubov), Shawm and Ensemble.

Treat Many Measles Cases
Dr. Canutesan Believes That Epidemic Is Easing Up
From a total of 406 students receiving treatment at Walkins Memorial hospital since Jan. 1, 162, or nearly one-third of all those admitted, have been brought to Dr. Balph L. Cunliffe, director of the University health service.
Ten sororities and 17 fraternities have had representatives among the sufferers in the present epidemic, as well as several students from Watkins and Corbin Hall. The epidemic has become constantly more intense during the past month, but Dr. Canteleton believes it is easing slightly this week. He attributes the large number of cases to the difficulty of detecting infection in its early stages, and to the fact that many students have made trips to other parts of the state between semesters and on weekends.
A glance at recent morbidity reports from the state department of health shows how meacles had spread during the last month. For the week ending Jan. 19, 476 cases of measles were reported in the state. A week later this number had increased to 732, while in two weeks, by Feb. 2, 181 had increased and 500 had been reported during the week ending Feb. 9 was 1138, and cases had increased, according to the last available report, that of the week ending Feb. 16, to 1300.

Hopkins, who is at Trinity Lutheran Hospital in Kansas City, Mo., that Professor Hopkins' condition is improving and that he will not have to undergo an operation as serious as was previously expected.
Elra Key, custodian in the general laboratory in Blake hall, has returned to work after a week's absence due to measles.
