TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1934 RIGHT THROUGH RED TAPE The College Student Employment Project providing federal aid to students, now well under way at the University, was scarcely heard of until a few weeks ago, when Chancellor Lindley went to Washington to plead the cause of the college student. Since last Monday, when Civil Works Administrator Harry Hopkins approved of the relief movement, arrangements have been made here for securing regular application forms which have since been filled out, faculty members have located jobs for students in almost every department, students have decided to return to school, and a committee has been appointed and is now considering the adjustment of work open to eligible students. The relief measure in itself is a vast undertaking because of its universality. It will affect about 100,000 students in the United States. The relief program adjustments are being managed through the state administrators. Care has been taken to work out a plan whereby new students will not be taking jobs away from persons already employed. It gives all educational institutions the same chance by allowing them money for the employment of ten per cent of the average enrollment of last semester. Then it provides that one-fourth of the workers must not have been enrolled in the University last semester, which permits the entrance of students who were unable to enter in the fall. Finally, the number of women to be employed is to be in the same proportion as that of the women enrolled. Thus, of the 350 affected here by the CSEP, 115 will be women and 235 men. They will receive an average of $15 a month for their work but even with this liberal assistance, they must have a small income from another source. Even though there are yet many details to be worked out, much has been done in a short time, so that the new working student could enroll with the rest of his group. At last the restlessness of the French people is being centralized to include France. ACTIVITY COMPETITION The Shan-Kar Indian dancers last night competed with the Kansas Players and the dramatic club for the students' patronage, while not long ago, many were forced to give up hearing Milstein because of the closeness of his concert to final week. Friday night there comes the Iowa State basketball game. Already the presentations of the play have been cut to four to avoid conflict with the Whiting Williams lecture tonight. Many student will be forced to miss all of these things because they will not be able to pay their fees as early as this. Many of them would enjoy these events as much as those who are able to pay promptly. These two things, a jam in one of the busiest portions of the school year and an unfortunate conflict of events, deprive many students of entertainment which they should rightfully enjoy. While it is not always possible to obtain musicians and lecturers when their appearances would be most convenient, it seems reasonable to hope that some arrangement can be worked out whereby those who are unable to pay their fees promptly will not be penalized by a repetition of this year's predicament. "Knowledge s power." Yes, but it takes grades to get you through College, whether you have the knowledge or not. Once more, it seems, the fertile Kansas prairie is being broken, the sod is being turned, and the spring plowing is preparing the soil for the planting of crops which will thrive in it next summer. Once more horses and men and machines are leveling unever olots of ground. Before Watson library a small promontory of earth dwindles to a shadow of its former self and the lowland that was once the basement of old Snow hall rises higher and higher to meet it. University workmen labor feverishly, and each day the ground "seemes more and more a field." A day ago two students emerged from Watson library and slowly groped their way through the maze of turning walks and twisting steps that led to the open air again. They stopped to view the workmen, and as they watched one spoke. "This reminds me of Medieval times," he said. "The scholars delved all day into ponderous volumes inside the monasteries while outside the serfs worked upon the plots of ground." "Yes," said the other, "but the CSEP will make us more like other monks who worked awhile inside and then came out to till the soil. I wonder what will be planted here, corn or oats?" The French people have temporarily forsaken their burden of disarming Germany in an attempt to disarm France. LEAVE OF ABSENCE After a period of thirty-one years of service to the University, Dr. Frank Strong has been granted a leave of absence. He served as Chancellor for eighteen years, and taught Public Law in the Law School during the remaining thirteen years. Dean Robert McNair Davis, under whom Dr. Strong has worked for the past five years expressed the appreciation of the Law School in a personal way: It is hoped that Dr. Strong will be able to take his place on the faculty of the Law School next year. He will be missed all of the time that he is gone. "I have a deep affection for Dr Strong, which has increased each year we have worked together. I am sorry that he is not with us, because, personally, I have found him to be so helpful, with his rich experience in administrative work. He has a wholesome, intangible influence upon the students. His very presence was a benediction. The boys appreciated their contacts with him, which one student expressed, when he said, "I am very glad that I had the opportunity of even a part o a semester under Dr. Strong."" Campus Opinion I would like to state my case in regard to your editorial on the check problem in here which appeared in the Daily Kansas February 8. Editor Daily Kansan: Some time ago there was an editorial written about the poor checking facilities as they were on the second floor at the time of the Freshman Frolic. When the first editorial was printed arrangements had already been made to change the facilities but to my knowledge no representative of the editorial staff consulted the management in order that a full and complete story of the problem or what was being done about it could be presented in your columns. At the present time I am waiting for the balance of the checking facilities to arrive for completing the new check room on the main floor. Your paper has carried news stories on the new check room but your editorial staff has completely ignored the fact that arrangements are being made to remedy at least the major part of the problem. The students are due the consideration of a complete presentation of facts.

I want to thank you at this time for your nice editorial in regard to our new ballroom. PLAIN TALES from the HILL Deer of various sizes and colors ranged here and there over the steps. A sea lion lion lay aimlessly in the sun. A huge alligator was just disappearing into a truck. An assortment of small animals, including badgers, raccoons squirrels and prairie dogs emerged from the open door. The casual passer-by gasped. Surely 2 o'clock in the afternoon was no time to be having hallucinations. But not! He discovered that the animal collection of Dyche Museum is being moved to new quarters until its native haunts can be renovated. It must have been a thrill for the stiff inhabitants of the famous "natural settings" to find themselves out in the real sunlight again, if only for a few minutes. Sunday morning just thirty miles from Bartlesville. They had taken the wrong turn on the road between Cherryvale and Independence. Perhaps they'll now include a compass in their dance band equipment. The pseudo-spring days last week started a good many romantic ideas running through the busy heads of University students; but none of them carried the notion quite as far as a feathered resident of the Fowler shop region. This industrious piggeon put complete faith in the summery weather and began to build a nest. She has chosen a tree west of the old Commons building, for the home site, and she experienced some difficulty in making the sticks and strings adherence to the branch, but faithfully she labored all day long. Sad ending: That night the Noreg gale returned in full force. The next morning it snowed. Current Screen CAROLINA at the Varsity is a quiet, peaceful picture in spite of the dramatic intensity of its plot. Perhaps this atmosphere is the result of the location, a vast, long-established Carolina plantation shimmering under a lazy Southern sun. At any rate the picture is a relief from hurry-up air of most modern pictures. --on Wednesday and Fridays The most notable feature of the show is the work of Janet Gaynor. Not that it is particularly outstanding, but the role she plays is so different from anything she has done before that even the fan who has come to condemn her may find some words of praise. Lionel Barrymore, as the insane member of the old household, gives a character portrait which makes you forget that he is Lionel Barrymore. The work of Robert Young and Stepin Fetchit (if you like him) also deserve mention. Briefly, the story is this. A girl from the North is farming a small section of a large Carolina plantation, owned by an aristocratic but impoverished family. She falls in love with the son and heir, reforms bim from his lazy ways and puts the plantation on a paying basis. Own this ROYAL PORTABLE PAY AS YOU USE IT! Precisely the model you need!
