AN INSTITUTION IS PERPETUATED
THURSDAY, JANUARY 19, 1933
The announcement that Lawrence business men, through the organization of the Lawrence Kansas Relays club, will lend financial assistance to the Relays in this and future years guarantee the continued existence of an event that has become an institution at the University.
Ranked as one of the four major track and field carnivals in the country, the Relays advertise the University and the town as no other single function of either can do. The national prominence of the athletes who come from other colleges and universities to compete and the performances that have been turned in have given the Kansas Relays a reputation that is reflected in a great measure of benefit to both the University and the city.
The willingness to co-operate manifested by the business men of Lawrence is indicative of a spirit that makes the success of future Kansas Relays a certainty.
THE TALKING HABIT
Machinery has been put in motion to stop the filibustering of Senator Huey Long which has been holding up the senate for five days. Taxpayers over the United States have laughed or wailed loudly at the long-time debate. Those who have laughed have a generous sense of humor. Those who have laughed have been disgusted at the waste of time and money expended in doing nothing, in fact in trying to keep from doing anything.
Although Senator Long's conduct may be heartily condemned on the one hand, on the other few have a right to say anything against it. Filibustering is characteristic of Americans, especially Kansans, and still more especially students at the University.
Who has not been in a class in which an assigned test has been postponed because enterprising men or women hold the floor so firmly that no professor could gracefully ston the discussion! Who has not listened to the unprepared teacher who wanders on and on in a rambling lecture merely to fill out time until the whistle blows! Everybody filibusters his way out of some embarrassing situation at least once in a while.
Mavbe even Senator Long had an alibi when he started his vocal marathon and should not be condemned too harshly. And who is there to cast stones?
STUDENT UNEMPLOYMENT
Newspapers report daily that the student unemployment situation is becoming more and more serious. Public sympathy is being aroused for the fortunate young people who face the possible abandonment of their school work unless some means can be found for them to work for part of their expenses. Both professors and townpeople are more than anxious to co-operate with unemployed students and keep them in school, if possible.
They complain, however, that their efforts often meet with re-
buff. Several University enterprises offered jobs to students as salesmen on a commission basis. Did they accept? They did not—they wanted something easier and surer than that. The Lawrence householders say that when they give these students work, they overcharge them frightfully and grumble about the labor involved.
Co-operation can not be gained by effort only on one side. Some students give the impression that they are in a state in which they prefer to remain.
ONE LESS OBSTACLE
Over President Hoover's veto the senate and the house have passed, with more than the required two-thirds vote, the bill which will set the Philippine Islands free—free to do as they wish until some more powerful nation comes along and "conquerus" them.
It has been a bitter struggle—that fight to free the Islands. Whether this new freedom will prove to be the best for them or not remains to be seen. Anyway congress will have one less reason for delaying the business of reducing governmental expenditures and federal taxes. And if it exerts as much effort on the tax reduction legislation as it did on the Philippine bill it may really get somewhere.
WHO VOLUNTEERS?
Did you know that Potters Lake needs to have its cars washed? An enquiries reporter with an eye for "dirt" discovered it. Our romantic lake set jewel-like in the heart of our campus has become the depository for a surprising collection of objects. As the roll was called, tin cans seemed to predominate, but boards, tubs, parts of fenders and old tires, and the inevitable flat so-by-so bottles were present.
The lake needs cleaning, and it should be done before Spring. Imagine your embarrassment if you take your lady fair cane and she trails her fingers in the water (all ladies do) and those beautiful fingers come up twined around a tin can.
STATUS QUO
There is a law in configurational psychology that reads, "An organism tends to maintain its status quo." Regardless of the merits or demerses of configurational psychology the truth of this law is apparent at every turn of history.
In 1900 the wise men of Wall street and the ordinary citizen in Zenith soffed at the horseless carriage. Several years later they laughed at airplanes. Not long

The completion of one of these prints is a long and tiring process. Each is made from a series of hand cut and pasted sheets, which are tracing the desired intensity of color and correct outlining of figures, it is necessary to use one series of blocks many times. Some of the prints represent many as 30 different series of blocks.

Special Display of Japanese Prints Includes Art Work by Japan's Best
The display is divided into two types of prints: the landscape and the figure. Some of the landscape prints are the work of Hiroshige, who is recognized as Japan's greatest landscape artist. Two of his originals showing snow scenes have been made difficult to obtain. Of the figure prints, many are the work of Yeizam and Toyokumi, who are ranked among the best artists of the Orient.
There will be a meeting of A.S.M.E.tme at 7:30 in Marvin hall.

Withish—(UP) —The Salvation Army is feeding an average of 3,000 hot stew and coffee luncheons to needy men who are participating in the "made work" campaign here. Half of the expense is funded by the organization, half by business men's contributions. Large quantities of food have been donated to the Salvation Army.
A set of original Japanese prints are in a special exhibit in the department of design's gallery, room 320. "West Administration building." This display features a variety of color schemes in addition to a large variety of subject matter.
Hutchinson—(UP) —A permanent injunction restraining the city of Hutchinson from interfering with the operation of Sunday picture shows has been delayed. The city is holding that the city ordinance is "arbitrary, discriminatory and invalid."
The department of design collection is composed of originals made under the supervision of the artists themselves and date back as far as 75 to 100 years ago. The latest of the artists, whose works make up the exhibition, died in 1888 and none of the prints are the work of contemporary limners.
NTER-RACIAL GROUP OF Y. W. C. A.:
Arkansas City, — (UIP) — Stephen Winter, transient who was injured in a mcke at a hobo camp here, found it extremely difficult to leave the hospital where he was treated for head injuries. Winter's entire ward condition, consisting of 14 beds, was turned to shreds. Relief agencies had to furnish him with clothes.
Realizing the futility of further scientific development until other departments of life have caught up, scientists have begun to delve into the realm of economics and sociology in an attempt to determine means of improvement.
Unperturbed, scientists have continued with their investigations and mechanical improvements until they are able to develop the world further than the present economic and social systems are equipped to carry on.
A school of these scientists, the Technocrats, is at present receiving the Bronx jeers of thousands, but it might be well to remember that the first horseless carriage wasn't a great improvement over Old Dobbin and the family buggy.

Albane—(UP) -Members at the Women's Christian Temperance Union watched Sydney C. Dederick, outgoing shrift, pour 125 gallons of alcohol and 70 cases of home brew into a swer, as one of his final official acts. Many still, most of them of crude construction, were smashed. The W.C.T.U. members were invited by Dederick to watch the destruction.
The Inter-racial group of the W.Y.C.A. will meet at Henley house at 7 o'clock tonight. William E. Griffin, of Kansas City, will address the group.
Hiroshige, Kumadau, and Tookukumi as well as many other Japanese artists offer their interpretation on wo this play through their prints in this exhibition.
This play is so popular in Japan that any theater, finding that it is losing patronage, may immediately re-popularize itself by staging a performance of "Cuchingum." It is the only play in a complete series of tables.
The "Chushingura," an ancient Japanese play, sometimes known as "The Legal League of 47 Ronin," is illustrated through prints on display on the north balcony of Spooner-Thayer art museum.
News From Home
aupsuis the display is being presented, the average person who views such a display does not appreciate Japanese art of the 1970s and 1980s; art is so different from our own.
To gain any benefit from the display, the person must understand the Japanese standards of art, comprehending the vast amount of work and patience that goes into creating a piece of beauty as the Japanese artist produces." Miss Ketchan said.
The "Chushinguirq" was first performed in 1748 in Yedo, and was founded upon a historical event which took place in about 1701. A certain noble was persistently insulted by another noble. Finally the noble escaped the offender to a duel. Though he only inflicted a slight wound upon his aggressor, the duel being intercepted by an officer of the law, he was convicted by a court and sentenced to self-immolation, his punishment being severe.

They settled in their own city and their purpose was the swerving of the death of their leader.
