Earned as secondclass matter September 19, 1610, at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1932 ECONOMIES In this year of depression more stress should be laid upon economies that can be practised. Money is not plentiful, and most students are depriving themselves of many of the comforts that are essential. Sacrifices have been made in order that students may return to school. Every possible item of expense has been cut from student budgets. But there is one item that could and should be cut from the budgets of organized houses this year. That is the item of decorations for Homecoming. Usually the decorations are rigged up the night before or the morning of Homecoming day. While the pieces of compobbate and the streamers of colored paper that adorn the yards and houses do add to the festives of the day, they are not essential. Although the item of expense for each house may be small, the amount spent by all probably would total more than $300. Would it not be a wise move to discontinue the decorations for this year? Certainly the Homecoming spirit will prevail without buntings hanging from the windows of fraternity and sorority houses, and above all further economies would be affected. RETURNING GRADUATES The gain in enrollment of the Graduate School is traceable to the depression. Ordinarily the enrollment of the school remains on a gradually increasing plane, but there is a temper cent increase this year caused by the returning graduates of last year and the year before, who have so far failed to secure the job that they supposed was waiting for them after graduation. Of course they had no right to expect a job, as their right, but many came to the University four or five years ago under the impression that a college degree entitled them to a good remunerative position upon graduation. Then along came the depression and ended their hopes. Many have searched for a year or two years, and failing in their quest, have returned for further study, awaiting an upturn in business conditions. This situation has entailed economies and sacrifices on the part of their parents and on their own part. An education is still an expensive luxury; the percentage of high school graduates who receive college degrees is still very small. But with no jobs available, the average graduate who can find the means is taking advantage of the depression to further his knowledge, so that when prosperity does return, he will be better prepared to enter the world of work. It is a good idea; this is an excellent time for study. ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT The members of the Men's Stu Student Council should be congratulated on their recent stand with regard to freshmen paddling, which hitherto has been a rather helter-kerl hazing. The regulations as set forth by the council will relieve many freshman worries concerning paddling, passing the colors. and wearing of caps. This step is another advancement from the old "hey hey" college days. Students at higher educational institutions are becoming more conscious of their purpose in school. Much of the evil of a generation ago is being done away with. There are many who will argue that the regulations set forth by the council will tend to decrease school spirit at football and basketball games; but it is doubtful if this will occur, for only those students who are interested in sports will attend, anyway. Certainly the students will support the team just as adequately without paddling as with it. If paddling brings about respect and reverence for the educational institutions, then they should be renamed; "colleges" and "university" does not express the correct meaning. After all, the purpose of the university is to teach culture and to give knowledge to those who come here. It isn't a four-year course in play that begins with freshman paddling and ends with graduation. The regulations for this year are gratifying,—and there is room for improvement. Our Contemporaries The courses of study outlined and the pocket books depleted, freshmen Saturday heard the ritual which converted them into university students. Conflicting ideas concerning the led by Mr. Average Student have been impressed upon those who only recently were attending small high schools. Mass of fact, few of the dreams of incoming students will be realized. BUBBLES TO BE BURST many who expect the university to be an Elgian field where they will be able to wander灵敏ly about have a rude shock in store for them. This will far from an institution in which one may enjoy a nine-month rest cure. On the other hand, the hardy group which came here expecting to devote endless hours pousing over meanings figures and unintelligible terms will be pleasantly surprised. Only the most foolish will do nothing but study. The life of a college student is little different from that led by any other class of people. Over-emphasis alone serves to leave the university man or woman the impression that he is the vortex of a huge whirlpool. The freshman who perceives university conditions as they actually exist will experience little difficulty in applying to an unrestressed suits and beautiful women. Those who fail to gain the proper perpe- spective will discover that the period of orientation does not end with the freshman mixer. The Oklahoma Daily College Is Serious While embarking on that interesting journey, a college education, the incoming freshmen should not let the novelty of the situation submerge the fact that the path ahead is a precarious one. One is considerable advice that can be broadcast to the newcomers, but a few words will suffice. Business leaders have said that one direct result of the current depression will be the increased value of a college degree in the future industrial world. This, coupled with the fact that due to prevailing unemployment, university applicants are increasing, should serve as sufficient impetus for every person to acquire the mendicuous advantages of advanced education to apply himself conscientiously and make the most of his opportunities. The old "rah-rah" collegian of the past decade has fortunately been replaced by a more serious type of student. That college student who has time only for a healthy and constructive program of academic, social and extra-curricular activities will be the successful business man of the future, which will help him to be pumped by the realization that a college education should be pursued conscientiously and seriously - Syrinxe Daily Orange.

Following two years of travel through Europe, Mr. Schott became associate editor of National's Business, the publication Commerce.

In addition to the medialism and portrait, Mrs. Schott sent emails with addresses and articles by her husband. For several years Mrs. Schott has been the donor of the Henry Schott Memorial prize in advertising at the University. The prize is $100 annually to the advertising student who exhibits his award in this promise in his profession. Ms. Schott left an endowment which will continue the prize in coming years. MEN RECEIVE LOWER MARKS THAN WOMEN AT ANN ARBOR Ann Arbor, Mich. - (UP)—Women get better marks at the University of Michigan than men, and men and women who live in fraternity or sorority houses average better in their studies than do the independent students. The scholarship chart for 1931-32, listing all except medical, law and dental students, and elitizing them in groups, shows the four highest ranking groups were made up of women. Men and women shared honors in the next three groups, and men composed those in the last three groups.

The Reserve Officers Training Corps, which has offiles and classrooms in this wing have received new equipment and supplies to replace 'bose damage by the fire. The fire, presumably of spontaneous origin in the storeroom in the attic, was confined to the attic and to the roof. Supplies, uniforms, instruments were destroyed or damaged by the fire, smoke and water. The damage to the building was then estimated by Chancellor Lindley at $3,000 and the loss to the military department, according to J. Burke, was approximately $8,000. Repairs to the building, at a cost of approximately $3,600, were made by the employees of the buildings and grounds department. New slate was required for a section of the roof. A part of the roof was raised and three windows were installed, and ventilation in the storeroom on the third floor. A new ventilator was installed in the roof which will prevent the overheating of the attic. New ceilings and new partitions were constructed for some of the class rooms and hall to the RO.T.C., offices. At the doorway to the RO.T.C., offices, a tower, a steel fire-proof door was installed.
