HONORED MEMBERS OF THE GROUP
From all phases of campus life, the outstanding senior women of the University are brought together to carry on the traditions and the honor of Mortar Board. The seven young women announced at the freshman induction are decidedly worthy of membership in this distinguished society.
and scholarship and their fineness of character during their three years at the University. They were chosen by a student-faculty committee, and they now have the opportunity to climax their college life by continuing the traditions for Mortar Board.
Mortar Board has always been one of the most loyal, enterprising and valuable groups on the board. The organization has shown their ability for leadership
WHY SO EARLY?
The congratulations and best wishes of all students are extended to these seven young women. They have a senior year rich in worthwhile experiences and associations ahead of them.
The new closing hour for the library is proving an inconvenience to many students. A large number are employed, or for other reasons find it impossible to study in the library in the afternoons. In the evenings, the majority of students cannot possibly arrive at the library until about 7:30 o'clock. This leaves them only about one hour and fifteen minutes for library study, since the attendants begin closing the building at 8:45 p.m.
The move was originally made as an economy measure. But if a savings must be effected in the operation of the library, why not close the building from 5:30 until 7 o'clock, as is done at Hays Teachers College? Few if any students are studying during that period, and the dinner hour is surely the most opportune time for closing. By this change, approximately the same financial saving could be made, and at the same time the students could have more actual time for library study and reading.
This amount of library reading will hardly suffice for one course, and it certainly will not satisfy you for an entire schedule of classes.
CUBAN UPRISINGS
During the past few month Cuba has had three presidents and has been ruled by three systems of government. In July Do Cespedes supplanted President Machado, who had held the presidency since 1925. Three weeks later the revolutionary Junta overthrew this first provisional president and within a month's time Dr. Ramon Grau San Martin took the oath as president.
These recent uprisings in Cuba have brought to light many injustices of the Cuban government and that has led to a profound toforfee unknown to the world.
As long as Machado had the army and police at his back, he was able to suppress or get rid of him. He could also exterminate the opposition,
however, and merely drove it underground.
Official assassinations were very uncommon in the recent history of Cuba until the Machado administration. Political enemies were mysteriously put to death by his agents. Their murderers justified themselves under the old Spanish "ley de fuga," which permitted police to kill an offender who resisted arrest or attempted escape. The law was abused to such an extent that it finally brought about opca revolt among the Cubans.
It is little wonder that they rebelled. They could not gain their rights in any other way. Freedom of the press, free assembles and free elections were prohibited by the government. They relied on public opinion text through which they could expect relief—revolution.
The instigators and leaders of the revolution were former university and high school students who were intelligent enough to understand the injustice of Machado and the old school of professional politicians. They were unhappy with Machado because the common people looked up to them and were willing to follow them.
Although Cuba is as yet unsettled, it is gradually throwing off
die ideals and civil political traditions which were inherited from the Indian colonial era, whose essential rule and which have come to light at intervals ever since.
GOLF EDUCATION
It was announced last spring in an American university that courses in golf would be included in the curriculum of the school. The courses would include classroom instruction in the technique of the game, and its practical side would be taught and directed by a competent field instructor. This is one example of the modern trend in education toward practical things. It will not be long until every college student now has knowledge of how the new has toward education and everyone will be $^3$taking courses that really leave a student with something tangible after his four years of exposure.
Freshmen will be saying, "I hear that elementary golf course under Blank is great," and upper-classmen will prate of "theory of golf" "despirative golf," and "advanced golf." Even parents will be getting their money's worth to Jackie's and Ruth's education.
Probably it will not be long until the more progressive colleges will be offering courses in hopscotch, tiddlerwinks, tit-tat-toe, and other useful accomplishments.
NO FEET OF CLAY
Glenn Cunningham was recently accorded a singular honor, when Governor Landon journeyed here from Topeka to shake the hand of the man who has carried the firing torch of victory, from Mt. Orcad to lands across the sea.
Unlike more impressionable athletes, Cunningham has not allowed himself to be carried away by the huzzabs of an enthusiastic press, singing his praises in black shirt and he has kept his head in spite of a showers of honors that would have unbalanced the average man.
The that chief executive of Kansas should find much to praise in the character and athletic prowess of this young man is not surprising to his fellow students Cunningham possesses those qualities which maintain the popularity of a public hero. Closer contact with the famous runner, instead of spoiling one's regard, only serves to command deeper respect for him.
Undegraduates on Mt. Oread appreciate the fact that their famous fellow student has not gone "high hat." Cunningham remains the same fine, likeable, modest young man, who left for the Olympics to begin the making of a great name for himself and the University of Kansas. Our idol has no feet of clay.

"Equality before God," said Ludwig Mueller, the new first reich bishop of Germany, "does not mean equality of human beings." As a loyal Nazi, Bishop Mueller in these words, endorsed the policy of the government not only with regard to the Jewish

Thursday morning, at the same time University of Iowa students are beginning their registration for the new semester, five men, charged with the burning of the German Ret逮捕 building last February, will go on trial this week. With the support of faculty, their heads will fly into a basket from Germany's new chopping block.
The Reichstag Blaze Is Spreading
Bishop Mueller seems to have adequately expressed the attitude of the government in his speech, since almost every day new reports appear in which other "Dimitroffs" are silenced for having dared to express views contrary 'o the nazi program.

He also had to be assessed the examining judge of false judgments and prejudice. He should have remembered that he was not "equal" to the Nazi judge, and should not, therefore, ask embarrassing questions.

But the same trial bids faint to wipe out whatever respect the world has maintained for Germany as the world has maintained for power he can hardly afford increased animosity from other nations—Daily town.
The Indiana Experiment
All educational eyes are being turn toward the University of Indiana these days, watching and contemplating the outcome of an educational experiment. Ms. Dillenburg diampolis campus. Designed to give college training to students whose education was carried only as far as grammar and secondary schools, this exam, according to reports, has brought already more than 1,000 applications.
Staunchely denying the flow of reports that the innovation is intended to a movement away from the systematic four-year college term, leaders who are not the students' purpose is merely to give higher educational aid to those students who

when in secondary schools had not mediated entering higher institutions. Interpreting the significance, officials say: "The Indiana short course will be open to any graduate of a public school in the state without regard to the sub-standard." The course will make for applicants over 21 years of age who are not high school graduates to enter as special students." Going even further to make the experiment more practical, freedom in the selection of studies is given stu-
Figuring the Freshmen
They were talking about freshman registration, Said the first. "They're funny things, these freshman classes. This makes the eighth one I've seen come in and they've all looked the same."
"Yes," agreed the second, "about 1,200 first-year men every year and they all look alike."
"I wonder in just what positions they'll be four years from now," pondered the first.
"Well," calculated the second, "about half of them will stick through the four years and receive degrees. A hundred won't last more than three months. You know - difficult at all." "It's too bad," said out, and 75 more will "bust out,"
"Yes," continued the second, "and approximately three hundred and fifty students are there. We are the four years are up. And 50 if 60 more will be doing graduate work."
"And five or six likely will be killed," added the first.
"Funny thing these freshman classes," concluded the first. His 'friend agreed.'—Daily Texan.
Now if Samuel Insul is half a man he will return to America to defend the fair name of pretty Mary McCormick, accused by her husband Prince Merge Madivan of being too "thick" with exultations magnate—Ottawa Herold.
