SUMMERFIELD SCHOLARS FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1932 This year will see the first graduation of a Summerfield scholar from the University. Thirteen new ones will come next year. The University has expressed its appreciation to the donor of the gift which makes these schoolshools possible. Further commendation would be but repetition of what has been said before. But something might well be said for the Summerfield scholars themselves. Coming to the University under the handicap of being regarded as "bright boys" these men have won distinguished places for themselves in the time that they have been here. Some of them have risen to places of highest importance in University life. They are represented in all of the really thinking organizations on the campus. "Beer Raid Ends in a Concert" —Headline. After all, a raid can't stop everything. A VERY YOUNG MAN NEEDED Circuses aren't what they were. The number of rings has decreased; the size of the animals is not impressive; the acrobats have lost their skill to us spellbound, and the tents do not seem to reach nearly as far into the sky as in former days. But perhaps all of these woes are not the fault of the circus. Perhaps we have grown while the circus remained static. We believe there is only one channel open to the adult who would recant the glamour and channel open to the adult who would recapture the glamour and thrills of the big tops. That adult, with pockets clinking with nickels and dimes, should be host to a very young man, a lad who has never seen a circus. He should let the young man run riot through pink pop, side shows, popcorn, all the concessions which accompany a circus. In that fashion of the adult catches the contagious enthusiasm throbbing through his guest. It is the only proper way to attend the circus. "Last Sour Owl Out"—Headline. Can we depend on that? AN AMERICAN MEMORIAL Exceeded only by the Curtis fabrication to obtain money from the Lindbergh case is that of Gaston B. Means to obtain $104,000 from a woman whose sympathies and credulity outweighed her judgment. There is such a thing as crime and wickedness, but for sheer, dirty meanness, pretending to be able to recover a kidnapped baby of whose whereabouts the pretender has absolutely no knowledge is probably the worst. Perhaps Lindbergh an outstanding example of the progress of civilization, will truly begin to love the American people whose enthusiasm has raised him to such a high place, if a few more of these incidents crop up to be added to the edificie being built in his mind in memory of his murdered child. MARCIA WOOD A woman who is probably known to but a small percentage of the University population, but whose friendship among those here plus through K. U. from the Lawrence city schools, if put into numbers would run into a large figure, recently died after fifty years of teaching service. Marcia wood, a student at the University in 1884, has been an integral part of Lawrence high school to nearly every student who attended it. Plans for the placing of a plaque in the Lawrence Memorial High School building in appreciation of her services cannot but receive the co-operation of everyone who has known her. A PROBLEM FOR THE WETS Ardent wets believe that should beer and light wine he made legally available the crime wave would immediately recede. It is true that much of the money involved in crime is gained through the illicit sale of whiskey, beer, and alcohol. Sale and manufacture of aloebolic liquors in the United States today furnishes employment for thousands of men who were criminals before prohibition, who are criminals now, and who will die criminals. If the manufacture and sale of alcohol is made legal, how will the wets curb and reform these criminals? NEEDED. A BIRD NURSERY Every pair of robins within miles of the University has hatched a pair of youngsters. Now that the young birds are able to fly they have been deserbed by their parents, who are interested in raising another brood before they go on their summer vacation. As a result the campus has been flooded by a swarm of motherless and fatherless feeldlings that bother the other hard working birds with their cry for food. A young robin even invaded the home of the Kansan in search of father, food, or mother. The bird was given the bum's rush and tassel out the window. This is a cruel thing to do, but journalists are not equipped with ears of sufficient delicacy to detect the crawling of a hidden worm or bug. What's more, they are not equipped with beaks to pull the worms from the ground, even if we were able to hear them. What this University needs is an orphans' home for deserted robins. Think of the bird friendships that would be cultivated. And more than that, if the birds were kept in the orphanage all summer, think of the saving that would be made on the crop of strawberries and cherries. "STURDY OAKS" What terrible thing have the men done to merit the punishment of having to wear coats at all social functions even in the hottest of weather and at the hottest of dances, while the female of the species is allowed to go about coatless, sleeveless, collarless, ---less and less. They talk about the emancipation of women! Why not consider the hardships endured by the men for a change? We have been playing the role of the legendary cricket all semester. Like the cricket we find ourselves facing a hard and cold winter without any supplies. We have been doing too much singing and playing. Buckle on your arm arm—or rather take some of it off—pull up your socks, and fight for equal rights with women. The ants have been working at top speed. They have seen ahead. Now they will have plenty of the food of knowledge stored away to last them over the winter of examinations. WE REPENT As a last resort we are madly scurrying around in an attempt to gather enough food to keep us from starvation. If the winter is mild everything will be lovely, but if it is hard, we be to us crickets. We have been merry. Now we Rhodianthum will meet Sunday at 5 o'clock in Prauer hall for the annual picnic. Members planning to attend should pay 25 cents to Maxine Lathner. Original poems will be read at the meeting; all who have won first places during the year should bring typed copies of their winning poems.

The department of painting is showing an exhibit of paintings and watercolors by Professor Karl Matern in the south gallery of the Thayer museum during the month of May, which will be open to the public until Commencement. Also, a collection by Professor Eisen is being exhibited in the galleries of the department of drawing and painting, rooms 233 and 327 Administration building, which will be on view until the end of this month.

There are few conversationalists left in America, but there are many who can talk. The college student learns choice topics for discussion by participating in numerous gab fests. FREDERICK E. WIRTH. THAT GIFT OF GAB To gain the fellowship of everyone in the group, it is only necessary to start on a morbid topic. A sad desire seizes every mind and each person is immediately "primed" with stories of strange deaths, accidents, and gruesome murders. There just isn't time to wait for the other fellow to finish, each story is so much better and brings so many more thrills to the listeners. After the most gruesome tales have been related, the conversation is sure to turn to one more object, operations. Again interest is renewed, for the topic calls for personal experience. After the person with the most operations has finished telling how she felt when ether was given her for the fourth time, the person who has suffered through a tonsillectomy begins her tale of wee. It is easy to decide which sex controls the money in this country when Estelle Taylor's make-up box sells for a high figure in an auction and the key to Culver City, a souvenir belonging to her divorced husband, Jack Dempsey, a knocked down at thirty-five gents. Human nature demands alterna- tions of happiness and sadness. We like to dwell on our troubles; we like to tell of our experiences, and we love to write word stories— ay, it is a nice day, ain't it? Our Contemporaries "A college graduate without commercial training is not worth ten dollars a week to any business concern." This is the burden of a message now being distributed in pamphlet form by a business college to S. C, students who IF NOT $10, PERHAPS. $9.98 being distributed in pamphlet form by a business college to S. C, students who will graduate in June. To one class of students, perhaps, the idea of a short business training will appeal—the class to whom graduation is expected—the right courses in colleges. Having been educationally at sea and in pursuit of a vague "culture," they are brought suddenly face to face with the real world—a few practical skills are essential. "Take our special intensive course that will prepare you to meet the demands of employers and command a high-salary position," it urges. Is the modern university so decision in business and commercial courses or just a "knowledge-based belief"? Hardly. The very courses it strives to sell—enumerated in the pamphlet—are offered in S. C.'s College of Commerce. Fortunately, institutions of higher learning have broadened their vision and have provided practical as well as cultural training. The college offers nothing but Greek and Latin is no more. But it should be unnecessary for students who "know where they are going" and plan their college courses accordingly to snatch up suddenly. Students must have essential knowledge they should have acquired while on the campus. Southern California Daily Trojan. EXTRA FINE BOND PAPER for term papers and theses. Can make four good copies at once. 25c per 100 sheets. Journal Press. -tf. Campus Opinion At last, KU has hit bottom, in the opinion of Marya Little. We have no honour, no pride, and no court to try the cheaters. Other collages punish those who try to get by with his attempts to leave away from them. But KU doesn't do that. If Johnny wants to cheat and feels that he is doing himself more good than harm by writing an outline or a formula on his call, what of it? The members who attended the W.S.G.A. national convention are urging the new cabinet to start "some sort of a reconciliation process" for a punished and made to suffer for their crimes. Would a court raise the standard of the University and take us from the bottom of the pit and "the mim clay"? Should we try to make others praise us for our effort? Or shall we go on being carefree and letting University men meet in the real world as what is best for them? If a man cannot judge what is right, the University is a little late in giving him a change of attitude. Students get foremost of their ideas of right and wrong before they are 10 years old. Surely there are enough examples of justice and right on the Hill that a student can be "right" without having to go to court and have some hours taken from him. By As ls. Potter Lake will probably not be opened for swimming until the summer session begins, according to efficience in the department of physical education. Dr. Raymond C. Moore, of the department of geology will teach three courses in the University of Chicago this summer. The University baseball team defeated Missouri yesterday, 4 to 3, in the season's final game. Professor E. H. S. Bailey has posted a notice on the bulletin board in the chemistry building requesting that instructors, employees, and students save their materials so they can be issued since such material will probably be scarce in the near future.

By making use of the Summer Session you can make up a year and earn a master's degree or begin your work in one of the professional schools a year sooner than is possible if you spend the whole vacation away from the campus. More than nineteen hundred students took advantage of the Summer Session offerings in 1931. They carried work leading to degrees in the Graduate School, the College, and the Schools of Business, Education, Fine Arts, Engineering, Law, and Medicine. The individual who uses the Summer Session to further his training or to prepare himself for special service thereby increases his personal efficiency and makes success doubly sure. Summer Session attendance is a sound investment that returns good dividends. Enrollment June 8 Classes Begin June 9 Consult Your Adviser or The DIRECTOR OF THE SUMMER SESSION 107 Fraser
