WE OWN THE VALLEY
The middle-west is known as the home of basketball. Here the game grew up and developed, to spread later over the whole country and into many foreign lands. Here it is played at its best, under the most outstanding coaches. Here many of the greatest players develop.
Be defeating Oklahoma Friday night, Kansas won more than a championship of the Big Six. She won the right to be regarded as having again reached the peak position in the game's history. Resting thus on the top rung of the ladder, the Jayhawks' play becomes the final criterion, the standard by which the rest of the game's performances are judged.
Such a distinction is not to be held lightly. It is one of which to be proud, but not one to be taken for granted.
LIMITATION OF BANK WITHDRAWALS
Yesterday the city of Lawrence awakened to find that a five percent limit on bank withdrawals had been enacted by the legislature. The wisdom of this move may be debatable, but the people of the state must face realities. There will be a tendency to hysteria which if permitted to gain headway will work inestimable harm. Courage and a clear analytical study of the situation are required.
The bankers of the state are faced with the necessity of working out a system that will prevent the virtual paralysis of business resulting from a scarcity of money. They must realize that the majority of business enterprises are carried on with the use of checks. On the other hand, this period will afford the banking institutions a chance to put their financial houses in order and adopt retrenchment policies that will eliminate the previous faults.
In this emergency, a great deal of co-operation is necessary. Giving way to a panickey feeling will accomplish little, and through it any merits that the present plan may have will stand the chance of being lost because of the lack of a work-it-out together spirit which alone will permit the efficient operation of the plan.
THE NUT ON THE STEERING WHEEL
One of the real danger spots to campus automobile drivers is the road which winds up between Fowler Shops and the Library. A blind curve at the top of a sharp grade prevents motorists coming in either direction from seeing what is on the road for more than a few feet ahead of them. And the worst part of it is that the blindest point on the drive is just where students must turn across the road to park their cars behind the Library. Several hundred each day make this turn, but fewer exercise even ordinary caution.
Not that ordinary caution is enough. Decidedly it is not. Under
such circumstances, the most careful driver faces a real danger on the narrow road.
The happy solution to the problem, of course, would be to rebuild the road, but that is obviously out of the question, at least for some time. Money for such a project simply is not available. The danger can be eliminated only when those who drive cars on the campus are made to realize that the responsibility for an accident wil rest with them.
THE "DIP" IN THE SHORT CUT
The short cut through Martin grove is worth taking these March mornings. The birds are excited about sparing the first grass is brazely pushing up through the dead leaves the trees are holding their breath before the great day when they can "come out." And then there is always the "dip" for entertainment—a drop of about five steps, but as steep as the sides of the Grand Canyon. In rain it is muddy, in snow it is slick, in all weather it is entertaining.
Great or small, young or old, they all run when they take the "dip." French beels teeter down the cinders at 50 miles an hour; size 10 oxfordes come thundering after; professors who haven't chased a train in years come clattering down the incline like a football hero crossing the goal line. Try to take it with dignity some time yourself. It can't be done
Our pet ambition just now is to see the Chancellor, Mahatma landhi and ex-President Hoover il clattering down the dip together some fine spring day.
These are the days when we rush for the morning paper to see if we still have a University on Mount Oread.
Roosevelt may have set a new precedent with his eight-minute inaugural speech, but he said enough to keep him plenty busy for the next four years.
Editor Daily Kansan;
Campus Opinion
Why cannot the county cities of the University of Kansas see that a small size rock from their respective counties be sent to the University at once to be included in the Rock Chalk Cairn. This will give every county in the state an added incentive to be more interested in visiting the sites, that some of the counties may not have students enrolled in the school but their contribution to the Cairn will be as important and as welcome as the county with the large enrollment.

Our Contemporaries
Strangely enough, our national mis-management as applied to foreign affairs may yet prove to be the salvation of us, the students, "the flower of our nation," he wrote. He felt velt and Hull continue the Oriental policy of Hoover and Stimson and go on speaking loudly and carrying no stick at all in the Far East the chances are excellent that a nice war may start soon after June commencement exercises.
The League of Unemployed College Alumni is growing fast. It has a good chance to become the biggest fraternity in existence before the end of the year. Many of us undergraduates are beginning to wonder if membership in the college will be enough that waits for us after graduation. The glowing letters which once spelled "Opportunity" above the doors of every university may soon be replaced by "Abandon hope, all ye who enter here." From those older and wiser than ourselves the kind of political and economic leadership which will lift the country from the bog of unemployment. Three years of short-sighted bungling at home and abroad give no indication of the remedial action in the near future.
If war comes, we need worry no more about ways and means for the balance of our lives. Here's the formula: As soon as war is declared, rush to the colors and get on a uniform as soon as possible. The more days in uniform, the more compensation you can demand later.
As soon as an armistice is declared, those of us who are left alive and sane must get together at once and organize the Brotherhood of Retired Patriots, conveniently known as BORP. With a membership of two or three million

The May Day Mystery
Octavus Roy Cohen
That night Jib brought misery to the soul of John Reagan by forcing him into a motion picture theater. The screen story—rather well done—was that he smashed it so that Seehun dab at his eyes occasionally with a cheap, cotton handkerchief. The fat man did not relax during the entire picture; he was still very alive, even though but hiss the villain. When it was over he emitted a large sigh.
Jim turned sorrowful eyes upon him. "Ain't you got any sentiment, John? Not any at all?"

"No? Well, maybe not. But you were mixed up in the robbery of the Marland National bank!"
"I didn't kill Thayer."
The boy's face blanched, and out of the silence came Jim's voice again—indictively gentle.
"Bobbery ain't half as rotten a
charge as murder Max."
Vernon stopped his pacing and turned back to Hanvey.
"You'll tell the truth? All of it! Every bit!"
"You win," he said dully.
"All right, Son. Shoot!"
"I'll try to make it brief, Mr. Hanweve. I've been a d-d fool—but not a nudgeer.

"Yes, Ivy. I'm awful fond of her, And this spring Thayer took me for my last cut. I had lost about forty dollars, two years to him. He and my note came in bills. dollars. I didn't have a dime to pay him, and I couldn't borrow. Then, when Thayer knew I was stripped, he said, 'Well, I won't show that he had contended for me.'
"Dumb as I was, I began to wake up. I looked back over all our card games and I may be wrong, Mr. Timberline and I had been chewing."
"I don't think you are wrong, Max." On "May I first I find a date with Ivy," he said. "I got off the bus way, and that made me feel worse. Then when I saw her coming up the hill with Pat Thunner I sort of wanted to kiss her. When I left him I was in a cold sweat. If you want to know just how much I hurt him, you could kill him. Maybe I'd have done it if I'd thought about it—but I did. You see, I'm telling you all the truth.
"I got to the fraternity house and we took up my room, I changed my clothes, and we changed my clothes. I decided to take a suit I had on to the tailor, I didn't wear my room until I walked downstairs. I had the suit in my hand. Then I went to my arm. Then I was going down Archer street to Oak, where the tailor had the corner about half past two o'clock.
"There is a traffic light on the corner, Mr. Harvey, and it flashed just as I got there. I stopped for it, and it seemed almost as soon as it stopped that shooting started inside the bank. I was scared to death. I went to the door opened and a little man run out. He was carrying a satchel.
"Go ahead, Son. You're doing swell."
"This man—he was the robber—jumped in the back of my car and flopped on the floor. I was pretty near paralyzed, I was so scared."

"And all you have told me is the

"Yes." The boy hesitated. "But it isn't all the truth, Mr. Hanvey. I'll go on with the story if you don't mind."
"Please do, Son," murmured Jim.
