GET OUT YOUR NIGHTSHIRT!
Tomorrow night a celebration takes place which has been a traditional part of the University of Kansas for a great many years; The Nightshirt Parade.
In earlier years every student on the Hill attended the nightshirt parades and was a part of them and all of the fun that goes with them, but recently interest has begun to die out and the parades have been made up mostly of those freshmen who had to go or else be pledged by their upper classmen. We must admit that compulsory attendance of this sort is a sorry mess.
This year a new kind of compulsory attendance has been inaugurated. The Sigma Chi's and the Kappa Alpha Theta's held meetings and decided that the chapters would go in a body. The Theta's are having initiation for some of their pledges from last semester and will have to attend the parade in formal dress, but they are going anyway. That is the kind of spirit the campus needs, and spirit of this kind is the only means by which the few traditions left to us can be retained.
To cite this precedent established by these two lodges does not mean that the nightshirt parade is only for fraternity men and women. Far from it. It merely means that someone on the campus has had nerve enough to start something; only the co-operation of every other group on the Hill will insure its success.
If your house president or one of your friends calls you tonight, tell him your nightshift is ready for the fun and that you will be there to tomorrow night at seven o'clock on have a good time and help carry on one of the University's oldest and best traditions.
It is rumored that the federal government is, considering the placing of sharks in San Francisco Bay to further discourage any possible attempts to escape from escape-proof Alcalez prison. As Andy would say, check an' double check.
THE DOVE RETURNS
After two years of silence, the Dove returned yesterday to resume its function as the "students' outlet for surplus steam." Although the subjects treated are much alive at the moment, the Dove writers are not so voiceless as some of their predecessors have been known to be.
The important thing, however, is that the Dove is back. It fills a definite need on the Hill. Entirely a student undertaking, with no official connection or connotation, it provides a medium through which complaints, praises and opinions may be expressed on any subject the student chooses and in his own language.
The Kansan has taken due note of its own shortcomings as pointed out in the Dove and is grateful for the specific suggestion for an editorial campaign to increase the number of garters worn by men on the Hill.
A NEW MAGAZINE FOR THIS SECTION
recognizing the need for a pe riodical specializing in the litera ture, art, and general culture of this section of the country, the University of Kansas City has decided to sponsor the publication of a monthly magazine. It is felt that other cultural magazines select their material from much too re restricted sections of the country, and that art and literature in the territory surrounding Kansas City suffer from lack of a medium of expression. It is this medium which the University of Kansas City hopes to supply.
Such an undertaking on the part of if this new university is com-mendable. The young artist and he young writer need the encouragement which publication gives him, and it is often very difficult or them to achieve such recognition from general magazines or from the eastern literary publications, which are occupied chiefly with the work of their own sections if the country.
The Kansan hopes that the new magazine will receive much interested support.
Will Rogers insists that it is still Hoover Dam. To Hoover, no doubt, it's just one dam thing after another.
HUEY'S NOT SO DUMB
Huey Long is "giving away" money, say the papers. He peels it off big rolls and passes it out like chewing gum samples, with gusto and a big smile, taking in return only unverified IOU's.
To Huey the public is just a child. He has his voters figured for simpletons who, receiving bright new five dollar bills with pop-eyed joy, do not know that Huey got the money from them in the first place. He is their great, jovial friend. He gives them shows they like to see. He tells them things they like to learn.
And he wins elections.

The Church Tests Its Chains
Radical? Communist? Impossible?
Coming from a recognized voice of Protestantism, these statements can not be passed as "treason" and "communist". They are sufficiently strong, however, to make one THINK
According to Dean Leroy Allen of Southwestern College who is authority on the subject of spitups, there is an epiphane on his shoulder which reads: "Here lies me and my three daughters, died from drinking Sleditz waters. If we had stuck to Epson salts, we wouldn't be in trouble." Carl Watson in Winfield Courier.
(By Dr. Charles Clayton Morrison editor of the Christian Century, voice of Protestantism in America.)
Every major activity and agency of Christianity stands at the end of an era and is at the threshold of a new world . . . The capitalistic system, operating directly breeds and unloying men . . . The conscience of Protestantism is waking from a long sleep to discover that its Christianity has not only failed to function on behalf of its own social ideals but has instead been used as the tool of privileged interests in the secular order . . . The realization that this is so . . . brings shame to the heart of every man whose eyes are open to realities . . . It has enabled us to recal it use to which it has so long been put by the mammon of this world. It sees, though dimly, that it must disengage itself from complexity in the secular system . . . The Church has for so long basked in the sunshine of capitalism, and solicited its economic success it has for so long measured its success in the magnitude of numbers and wealth, it has for so long courted and flattered the rich, it has for so long accepted and solicited its economic success it has for so long courted and flattered the capitalistic system, it has amassed such huge endowments whose stability and productiveness depend upon maintaining the politics and economic status pos . . . that nothing shall be superior to its ability to漏它 from this public identity to which it has allowed itself to be profitted."
Many a bookworm is beginning to squirm unselfy.

Campus Opinion
EDNA TURRELL, President.
--cheer for a school that trusts its students so.) The tickets could be given to someone outside of course, but not many of them would be. Most students are home. If more trust was involved, the rent of them would be even more honest.
It's an outrage. Only this expresses it. Now that the subject of compulsory activity tickets, activity cards picture, hand-writing and numbers has more or less been dropped, look at it in a cool and more rational way.
A great deal of the fuss raised about all it was because of the inconvenience it caused temporarily. It was a lot of fuss and bother and when the students didn't co-operate of course there was a little trouble at the first game, and the pictures had to be forgotten for that day.
But is it after all completely right?
And does it steer away from the ridiculous?
Distinctly not.
The question of activity tickets being compulsory was decided by the students last year. That is over temporairy.
But we had our pictures taken; our handwritten photographs; and we were numbered. Just how would very many students transfer their tickets when every student has to have one, unless, of course, he goes personally to the higher authority, or to the principal, or keeping his family on eight dollars a month and can't possibly get away from work to go to the games anyway* (he is supposed to
And if a student wants to pass his ticket to someone else, why shouldn't he? He paid for it. And if he is unable to go to the games should he have to let a ticket go to waste, a ticket that he was forced to buy at a cost that wouldn't be worth his ticket, he'll probably go if he can. But if he can't, he leases the money it cost him.
Who are the men and women of this institution of higher learning that they must be "mugged" like convoys? Are they not free men, and have they not the right to do as they choose some times? Not here.
The University and the student governing association have already received some very pointed jabs about the process and the proof. And while such methods are being enforced they deserve to be mocked and ridiculed. It is an outrage.
Shades of Joe Punter: Some of the less articulate salesmen were vending "The Dove" this morning with a line that sounded like "Ya waama buy a Duck?"

KANSAS STUDENTS ASPIRE TO PROFESSIONAL TRAINING
Survey of Registrar's Records Shows Little Correlation Between Occupation of Parents and Choice of Their Sons and Daughters
Why is a pre-med a pre-med? Why does a potential LLB, long to defend a client or sit upon the bench?
By Ruth A. Stout
Each year more K.U. students indicate preference for professional careers and a glance through records and recent news articles suggests the registrar's office suggests some reasons.
A brows through Repristar Foster's 1933-1934 records reveals that little correlation exists between the occupations of the mothers and their sons and daughters. The son of an

one student, in writing his autobiography, may truthfully entitle it, "From Farmer to Pharmacy." Several musicians may trace their early impressions to the barber shop harmony of their fathers' establishments.
Perhaps having fathers who produce oil may smooth the ways for the young lawyer and the journalist. Surely the pastry cook and her daughter—a student of design—have much in common. When it comes to mortician's and foresters' sons taking up the practice of medicine, that's real co-operation. A man whom whose name studies electrical engineering—no more dark nights for him.
Alling persons may find just cause for alarm in the fact that eight students of nursing and medicine come from carpenters' families and may feel cheered to know that a dentist has influenced his daughter to study art.
company president and his missionary daughter, give evidence of some co-operation between parent and child.

Despite the failure of students to follow their parents' profession in most fields, the medicines reverse the rule. Physicians, with scarcely an exception, rear sons and daughters who prefer medicine or a related profession. Daughters of physicians, for example, rather consistently choose the work of a nurse than that of a doctor, and 162 sons indicated their intentions of becoming practicing physicians. Thirty merchants' sons are taking up the practice of medicine.
Lawyers do not propagate their kind so readily as do M.D.A.'s. Thirty lawyers' sons explore the case books. Several law students learn about journalism and vice-versus.
Despite the ever widening field of occupations, the more learned professions claim slightly more students each year. In the event of widespread epidemics or legal rite, at any rate, we shall not lack competent aid.
