A force of only 50 Nippones have been left to guard the city. Peiping was calm today, but a spirit of unrest has attacked the Chinese residents who are digging themselves into bomb-proof dugouts in their back yards.

Economic Theory Leaves Student Mine Dry As Duck's Back. He Says
Ise Speaks on Socialism
"University students are not any more eager to learn about the philosophy of socialism than they are to learn about the philosophy of capitalism," Professor John Ise, head of the department of economics, declared in the night before the Kansas City Conference of Social Work in the W.Y.C.A.
"The technocrats," he said, "should be commended for having called attention in so dramatic a way to the faults of our economic system."
"The Students," he exclaimed, "are more interested in getting a date for the next dance, and the theory of their minds as dry as a duck's back."
Professor Ise said he did not fear Communism since he believed that the people, being able to make good choices, should get what they want.
Being a pianist himself, he said, in reference to the amount of energy required to achieve certain kinds of work that Wagner required more ergs to produce his operas than Irving Berlin required to produce his "twaddle."
"It will take a super-engineer," Professor Ise declared, "and not merely an engineer to solve our problems."

Basketball Team Shows Fine Spirit for Sooner Game
Cripples To Be in Shape to Defend Their Title
Against Big Six Co-Leader
BENN REPLACES GRAY
With their title hops resting on the outcome of the game with Oklahoma next Friday night, the Kansas Jayhawks won against a series of workouts already keyed to a fighting pitch. Although the scrimmage session was short, Dr. Allen's variety cages took it briskly as they played an offensive and defensive formations.
Friday night will be Johnson-Shakehne night, in honor of the two veterans who are playing their last game for Kansas. Records show that the Kansas center has each year played some of his best basketball against Sooners teams. Kansas fans are teammates to reap the benefits of performances in his final game.
Johnson and Wells, who were both injured slightly against Kansas State last week, took short workouts last night, and will continue to take things easy for the rest of the week. Well's hip has been bothering him since the Missouri game, but Dr. Allen said yesterday that he expected the sophomore to be ready Friday night. Johnson is not sure if his last night's scrimmage failed to show that it handcapped him to any considerable degree.
The Oklahoma game will mark the fourth consecutive year that the final Kansas home game has been a championship, duplicate the situation last year, when Kansas ended the season by trimming the Sooners at Lawrence for the title.

Another feature of the game, for which a capacity crowd is expected, will be a ceremony between halves honoring Glenny Cunningham, Kansas mile star, who has just returned from a highly successful eastern track invasion. The Lawrence Kansas Relays Club will be in charge of the program.

'Happy Landings' Given Successful Performance
Crafton Is Author, Director and Actor in Revue for Legion
Songs and laughs. Comedy and farce, and more comedy. A little bit of everything, and all of it amusing and humorous, and all of its songs," a two-aact written by Allen Crafton, which was presented here for the first time last night at the Lawrence Memorial High School under the direction of Stephen Libert Post of the American Legion.
if H. Hitchens, where it was first presented in 1928, were among the entertainment of the American soldiers. Although much of its humor and satire is that of the A. E. F. in France in 1918, it had lost none of its first presentation since the war.
The revue does not try to be pretenious. Its purpose is amusement and entertainment in any way that will be accepted. That purpose is accomplished well.
- Credit Is Dive Crafton
Professor Crafton must so the credit, the appraisal and the revue, but also for its excellent direction and a capable performance in many widely-diversified roles. In addition to several character parts, he handled a good share of the solo work of his colleagues. To say that any other member of the company was outstanding above the others, however, would be doing an injustice. Each man who appeared made a real contribution to the success of the production, and the audience appreciated the work of all of them.
But there are a few names that simply must be mentioned. George Callahan and James Patterson, comedy stars of the play "Maid in Hollywood," convinced those who heard them last night that they could create as much hilarity as Italian street sweepers as they did with their movie "movie capital." Professor F. H. Guild gave a slight of hand demonstration that brought stage gaps from his audience behind the footlights and real gaps from the crowd in the auditorium. The male quartet was excellent. C. C. Carl, as a decidedly overbearing M. P. in France, let himself in for disgrace. He also faced fatness in the finale back in New York.
All Do Act Well
And so it was with all the rest. Each had his part to offer, and the result was an evening of entertainment that was as pleasing to last night's music as it must have been to the much-harrassed A. E. F. 18 years ago in France.

Eagle has had previous experience in dances of this sort. He has studied dancing for several years, and has gained the ability to His dance will be accompanied by Byron Mason, *c*uncel, and a colored chorus of 12 voices, rendering the chanting music of the African peoples.
A very unimused舞，女Dagger Dance, from the Indian opera, "Natoma," will be given by Joe Dunkel, c36, in which he portrays the weak son of the Indian family who kills himself after dancing with the dagger and working himself into a freeze. This show is popularized by Ted Shaw, well known dance who appeared on the University Concert course last year.
