FRIDAY. JUNE 1. 1934
THE WORLD CHANGES
War clouds hung over Europe; Dollfus was the strong man of Austria; Cuba was in the throws of a revolution; France was in the midst of political riots; armored cars, sentinels of death, were roaming the streets in the Kansas City election. This was, in part, the condition of the world as the spring semester opened so few short months ago.
On the campus the world has seen at a standstill. Winter blossomed into spring; spring gave way to the heat of early summer. Books have been read, classes attended, all was well. But the world has been changing, conspicuously, speedily.
Japan has announced a Monroe doctrine in the East; Roosevelt has denounced the American doctrine of intervention. Japan takes a firm grip on China; the United States prepares to write off the Platt Amendment by treaty with Cuba and paves the way for freedom of the Philippines.
Fascism has spread over more of Europe; Bulgaria and Latvia have each fallen under the power of military dictators. The freedom of the press and the freedom of conscience have been taken away.
Public opinion has been crystallized against munitions manufacturers; steps are being taken to forbid the sale of arms to the belligerants of South America.
The scene in the United States has changed rapidly as the year has progressed. Labor has become more restless; the administration has been swerving between the right and the left; American currency has become silver plated; kidnappers have continued, but the federal government has entered into the control of crime; Barrow and "Bonnie" Parker were killed, the kidnappers of Gettle are behind the bars; the drouth has seriously menaced the plans of the AAA and even Russia is being forced to take wheat off the world market; Dr. Wirt was ridiculed and Darrow was denounced for the attacks on the New Deal.
The world is changing. Text books that we close today will seem but inadequate testimonials of the pace of civilization tomorrow.
WHICH TYPE ARE YOU?
There are three types of student facing the finals. The first is the student who has worked faithfully and well, and faces finals with a little anxiety, but with the knowledge that he has done his best, and he looks at finals unafraid.
The second is the student who has done mediocre work, but has done it himself, with no inclination toward dishonest practices.
The third, the student, by using unfair methods has got by, and who looks upon finals with dread, and will go out of his way to pass those finals by fair methods or by cribbing. Whether he cheats on the one next him, or whether he uses prepared methods, it all comes down to the same conclusion. If he gets by he is happy
because he has pulled something over on the professors.
There is apparently nothing found today to regret in dishonest practices in final examinations; the regret comes in later years when one looks back at these four years of college, and if he can look back and honestly say, "well, it wasn't brilliant work that brought me the highest grades, but it was my own," then there will come the satisfaction of college days well spent. If on the other hand, the student cannot say that, even if the Registrar does have on his records the highest grades, college will give him little satisfaction to the future years.
CAMPUS TRESPASSERS
Every year when the grass has a chance to grow unsightly paths mar its beauty. Students, as well as faculty members, continue unbothered to use these eyesores instead of the provided sidewalks. They pass on their daily routine unmindful of the harm they are helping to establish on our campus beautiful.
It would be different if the campus sidewalks were so arranged that it was necessary to make paths to the different buildings, but that is not the situation. All buildings are connected with broad spacious sidewalks that are laid in an orderly fashion. Much money and time have been required to provide them, and 10 minutes between classes is given to provide ample time for their use. But instead, the most of the students and faculty persist in gandering across the spacious grass areas. Like cows, where one goes 'the rest follow.'
Students who have pride in the simple beauty of their campus should protest against these unmindful trespassers. They should organize against this easily prevented destruction of beauty. Signs are of no use, wire is of no use, sidewalks are of no use; the problem is up to the students themselves. If student opinion is voiced this shameful trespassing will stop.
Our Contemporaries
FORCED THINKING
Butler Collegian.
The present day student complains that he is forced to think in the same way in which his professors think, in order to get grades. Students attend school to learn how to think from their professors, not what to think.
The professor who forces his students to give back to him on exams exactly what he has given in lecture is probably doing just what he was taught to do. He may even be handing down the same ideas which were handed down to him, but only little if any originity in the thoughts which he is now expressing as his own.
No one should be forced to think any particular thing. Perhaps students may be wrong in the attitudes they take, but they should be let rather than pushed.
The original mind must be trained to think for itself, not to copy the thoughts of others. Ideas wear out the same as shoes, and new or repaired ones are necessary. The time and place to start training a mind for new ideas is in the students. He should be taught to base knowledge on the accumulated knowledge of his predecessors and to accept too whole-heartedly the ideas which accompany that knowledge.
OUR CONTEMPORARIES THERE'S A CATCH IN IT Michigan Lawyer
A Detroit columnist recently asserted that the college boys who agitate against war evidently have never seen the girls crowding around a uniformed soldier. He is wrong. Anti-war students are aware of the fact that girls do lavish caresses upon soldiers, especially when the uniformed soldiers depart for the actual theater of war—to fieldfield to give their bodies as sacrifices to them they do not understand. Not only girls around them, but mothers and friends and little children. Tears are in the eyes of these persons who crowd around the uniformed soldiers, and a great sadness is in their hearts.
Michigan Journalist.
We college boys who agitate against war have read Remarque and Hemmingway; we have seen pictures of soldiers in uniforms in the rotrotrage sections of many newspapers; we have seen the Big Parade and the Big Price Glory. And Hemmingway did not talk much about the pride and admiration their uniforms evoked. They described the muck, the filth, and the lie that infested the

trenches that they had to lie in for days at a time. The illustrations of uniformed men in the rotrotugrae sections of the papers inspired us with feelings of horror, for most of the men in uniforms were hideous corpses. Nor were they the center of crowds of admiring girls.
The uniformed soldiers in the two motion pictures previously mentioned were a pathetic lot. No aura of glamour hung about them as they plodded, rain-drenched, profane, through the muddy roads of devastated France. And when Karl Dane, the actor, representing a brave soldier, had his uniform literally ripped to pieces with machine gun bullets that ended his life as a care-free roisterer, we saw no admiring crowds about him.
No, we college boys who agitate against war are not so avoid for the admiration of the girls that we will don uniforms for the specific purpose of having them crowd around us—Arthur Randall.
Current Screen
Jimmy Dunn saved Change of Heart (Varsity) from being a mawkishly sentimental show. This back-together again picture featuring Farrell and Gaynor has an appropriate theme for this time of year, dealing as it does with graduation and job hunting. But cynical college students will fidget at the overdone romance elements, even though it is what they must expect in going to see this team. Perhaps "cynical" does not apply to students in the spring, judging from the number of hand-handling couples we have seen strolling about the campus and along the walks of Lawrence during the past month.

The search of four newly-graduated college students for a job in New York constitutes the plot of the picture, with, of course, plenty of romance thrown in to give the customers their money's worth. Farrell, Dunn, Gayner and Ginger Rogers are the four pals in the bond. They go from their school in California to New York by plane (where do they get the money?) and there find the usual discouragement in
To Kakamans the continent of Australia seems one of the most remote corners of the globe and this fact alone helps to give a glamour to *Stingaree* (Patec) which notes for its mediciority in some other respects. The mysterious title may excite some curiosity. A stingaree is an elusive fish, found largely in the Pacific, which has sharp barbs in its mouth. This name is that a slippery Australian bandit is called the Stingaree. The part is played by Richard Dix.
Mary Bolań as the wife of a wealthy rancher is amusing for a while, but her anties soon pall. Henry Stephenson as the rancher doesn't have much to do, but his very presence gives a picture stability.
The plot: Irene Dunn, as the mistreated ward of the Stephensons, wants to learn to sing. The Stingaree kidnaps her and gives her a chance. She becomes an international operatic star, and she uses her factor. She goes back to Australia and is again kidnapped by him, this time willingly.
Miss Dunn looks a bit old for her part, but interprets it well. The vocal parts are unexpectedly good. She describes having a difficult part with apparent ease.
the big city. And to make matters worse a love triangle forms around Farrell, and poor, egotistical Dunn is left out in the cold. But it all ends happily and youglad and I'm glad and we're all glad—oh, what's the use?
