THAT CHRISTMAS VACATION
We suppose that we really should write a line or two about the nearness of the final examinations and what a wonderful opportunity Christmas vacation will be for some review study or to finish that report or write those back papers, but we won't.
Instead, won't the vacation be a wonderful time to boat? As if you haven't for the past three months. But of course we meant that you wouldn't be faced with the daily monotony of attending classes. Let's see, what time shall we get up? About noon? Fine, and we'll go to bed about three or four in the morning.
Parties? Why certainly? What would a Christmas vacation be without parties? Have a cocktail or two? Ye—, no thank you, I'm from Kansas. Then how about a round of beer. Well, I guess that wouldn't hurt. Right!
Son, you've got to help out at the store during the Christmas rush. Oh no, dad, you're wrong. I've got to work on that history notebook. You know final exams will be held right after! I get back to school. Sorry, Dad, but it just can't be helped.
And with that we are off to the party at the club.
CHRISTMAS SHOPPERS
Judging from the crowd down town shopping one would never guess that there was any kind of a depression existing.
Of course, some of these shoppers are going into debt in order to "keep up appearances"—and others will have to skimp and sacrifice so that they may not appear to have lost the spirit entirely. None of these are deriving any joy from giving but feel it more or less as an obligation.
Christmas among older people has just become a day in December which might appropriately be called "The Grand Swap." Only among families where there are children does the real Christmas spirit exist. Believers in Santa Claus are the only ones who really make this occasion the institution it should be, yet others far removed from that age put on a front and indulge excessively in exchanging gifts.
What a wonderful thing it would be, and what a vast amount of joy it would bring to the givers if they would forget themselves and their friends this Christmas and give what they can toward maintaining believers among the children who otherwise will be forgotten on this day.
President Hoover and his cabinet have been photographed, en masse, for the last time. The very disillusioning comment of the photographer was that the members of the out-going governing body displayed a surprising degree of contentment and serenity as they faced the camera. No remorse at having failed to carry the election was apparent.
"Well, whad'ya expect?" says Uncle Oscar as he glances over the news. "Us Republicans are no fools for punishment."
LET'S PUT OUT THE LIGHTS
Here it is midnight and this column is still begging.
There seems to be nothing to discuss that we would like to discuss. There is only the problem of war debts and beer. And as the New Yorker says "After the government has spent thirteen years in cultivating the American taste for hard liquor, it may be difficult to re-educate the country to beer." So that leaves only the war debts, and we will leave them right where they are. That's that.
Ho Hum! There we go yawning again. Well there are only five more months of this and then the realization of our boyhood dream. That is with the consent of the dean and little bit of luck. And then that sheepskin which cost us four years of life and several thousand dollars of our father's money. Just another ornament to hang on the wall at home, if we can get a dollar to have it framed. Gee but we are getting sleepy.
There comes that familiar strain over the radio again, "Let's Put Out the Lights and go to Sleep." that's not a bad idea. Guess we will follow suit. He hum!
OFFICE HOURS
Attending a University is a business in itself. If each student would have regular office hours of 8:30 to 5 each week day, and 9 to 12 on Saturdays, he should come out with large profits.
Activities or business conferences are essential in all lines of work. When these occur, office work must be done in the evening.
But if this business man has too many outside interests, he will not be a success in either his office or the many conferences, so his evenings spent in working should be few.
With his evenings free he can forget office hours and enjoy his social life—go to bed at a reasonable hour and thus keep up his health. Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and a Phi Beta Kappa.
MISAPPREHENSION
It is a common belief that the freshman is the college man who is all at sea. The wise cracks and puns about the greenhorn first year men are legion.
However, if the truth were known it is the senior who is the lost soul. As yet the symptoms are not obvious. But wait until these deutility school men return from the Christmas holidays.
There is no one in all the world who feels of so little use as the last year man facing graduation. From January on the senior is haunted by the fact that he has no job in sight. "What to do?" is the question that leaps at him from the pages of his textbooks, and his examination sheets. The very walls of his room seem to repeat with ceaseless monotony, What are you going to do?
There is no rest. Every thing he touches and every thing that engages his attention reminds him that there is no place for him to go after the sheepskin is under his arm, and he sighs for the untrummed days of his freshman year.
"Pifff, your yard! You know well enough the landlord has ordered you Woodring off the place in a month. And besides, you were clear across the railroad track, when I stepped on your peaky yard."
"You better not let me find you playing in my yard again, you ornery Graybill."
STATESMEN WERE BOYS ONCE!
"Like fun I was. I saw you coming, and got here as quick as you did. All I got to say is that you better stay where you belong or I'll call out my militia."
"Yeah, your militia! I got pretty of helpers myself."
"Well, I betcha I could get my Uncle Herb to bring his whole army, and the navy too, if I wanted him to."
"You and Bertie Cornell and who else?"
All K men, varsity athletes, and freshmen athletes in all sports are requested to attend an Athletic Mixer at the gymnasium this evening at 7:15 o'clock.

Temple Freshmen Chafe Under Freedom; Plead for Paddles
To Ira McCarty, Managing Editor;
Ora Ira McCarty, Managing Editor; Unfortunately, I was about to accept your suggestion to “send the Kanas to your ruhues” when I chanced upon the nice little essay you showed in the column below the honest opinion of Junior Coen. Shees I believe that you should be very proud of body. I have foreworsened sending this publication to ruhues, much less home. It is to be regretted that you, in your position of managing editor, do not have the ability to accept honest and logical criticism, without postfaching the issue. And yet we are told that it seems to me that the article to which Mr. Coen refers was one which would have aroused the indignation and contempt of every loyal student of the University, in addition to any folly inscrine in your comment upon Mr. Coen's article, or you have failed to
Philadelphia—(UP)—Temple University freshmen are "bears" for punishment. Two years ago "fresh" regulations were abolished by the Student Council. Hazing was characterized as "archic and undignified" and the term of sophomore donation over their traditional enemies was discontinued.
If the "regs" are restored, their restoration, it was said, will become effective next year, but hearing, as it is generally understood, will not be tolerated. The days of puddle and the forbearance of cleaners at Temple have gone forever.
Tired of this absence of discipline, and chaining under the liberty under which they now can come and go unintentionally, I want to want the "fresh" restifications restored.
The Temple University News, official student organ, is supporting the movement for the reinstatement of freshmen regulations, on the ground that student spirit has suffered since their arrival. The students are the president of the university, is in favor of the restoration, but only on condition that having be excluded.
follow sports to the extent that you can adequately appreciate and consequently criticise the abilities of Kansas' Jim Bausch, who was only a few months ago acclaimed the greatest athlete of all time.
Doubless, your are acquainted with the Oxford dictionary definition of "pansy," to wit: "Wild and garden plant with flowers of various colors, heartsease." If your fertile imagination has allowed you to personify James Bauch as this delicate flower of easy heart, it will be a good idea that this note will be of no avail. However, it is the writer's personal opinion that Ira McCarty does not look upon Mr. Bauch as such, but has merely allowed his desire for sensationalism to have full away over his mediocrity attempts at sarcasm, and would not express this opinion in any other manner than through the medium of the press. Few words to be so foolish as to your name-word to Mr. Bauch in his presence.
Therefore, as a student here at Kansu, I suggest that you confine your imbecile outburses to articles which are very interesting in the more important things which happen in this school, and further suggest that your plays upon the English language express your feelings of mental processes. —H.G.
I cannot understand the attitude of the University Daily Kansan in allowing to be published such a blurb as followed last Monday under the heading "As the Editor Sees It." The University administration and student members of the University toward Jim Bauchs always has puzzled me.
Editor Daily Kansan:
Crucified by the executives in order to retain a membership in good standing in the Big Six conference several years ago, the world's greatest athlete was hailed as a "Kansas Man" by the Crimson and Blue uniforms rather than face the consequences of their own doings, the heads of this University were quick enough to be called "historic." The USA supplied the United States with its first Olympic decathon winner in history. "And Bauch, but telling
them justly that as they had forced him to stand alone in his troubles, he would stand with only his couch, and he might have glory, glory, allowed them to claim him.
Supplementing the remarks of W. F. Coen, Jr., in this column yesterday, Bausch has always received less praise than he did at the University and the University than anywhere else.
"Pansy' Bauch." An undergraduate who can't throw a baseball as far as Bauch can throw the discus calling the world's greatest athlete a "pansy". That's a laugh. "James' Pansy' Bauch, as we now must call him." . . . A pen pencil and a typewriter athlete calling a "crooner" a "pansy."
I cannot understand the attitude the facultyoversuspects of the Kannan allowing such an article to appear in print in the Kannan. Careful enough supervision is extended concerning the article, and I have always been among the University's "sacred bulls." I can understand, however, the attitude that I believe promised this masterpiece of journalistic had taste and wisdom. He probably felt when he wrote it that although he would be called for it, he eweit to the profession of journalism to write what he saw, regardless of consequences. He would be a martyr; he would have a degree to break about his head, he would tell the public what he thought about Bauch. "Gee, if Bauch threatened me, wouldn't that be great publicity for me?" The young things taking journalism would regard him again, with enthusiasm boldly, without worry of consequence. "Aren't you afraid Bauch or some of his friends will be sore at you for printing that, I'm?" Music to his ears. I simply wish he could face the abuse he should by a great stroke of luck become a great newspaper man as Bauch is an athlete, any faults he may have will never injure his ca-
This blurb takes ranking with Paul Fisher's letters in a Kansas City news paper as examples of misguided efforts at humor. Fisher, however, probably made the mistake of hoping they weren't done voluntarily because the only funny thing about them and McCarty's piece is the spectacle of a former fair-to-middling quarterback who was an exemplary leader and a managing editor of a student paper that preaches ethics and then blithely disregards them ridiculing the world's greatest athlete for nothing but trying to motivate for the publishing which the public and the writers are no better off.
