SUNDAY, MAY 1, 1932 NEEDED CHANGE In the new constitution of the Women's Pan-Hellenic Council which will be printed next week, a sincere effort has been made to co-ordinate the schoistic requirements of the University and those necessary for initiation. Formly the rules for initiation have required at least 12 hours of work with a C average, with not more than three hours of D. Under that rule a woman making 10 hours of A and 5 of D, which gives a total of 30 grade points, could not be initiated. Yet the University considers such a woman a good student and allows her to take additional work the next semester. This condition obviously was not in keeping with the standards of the University. In order to remedy the situation another chase was added allowing a woman who has secured 25 grade points to be initiated. This will not lower the scholastic requirement and will balance Pan-Hellenic and University standards. AFTERMATH OF CRIME Several other grade combinations establish eligibility for initiation under the new rules. The change is not a radical one, but it is a decided improvement. In 1931 a mob in Omaha, Neb., lynched a Negro, burned the courthouse, and destroyed thousands of dollars' worth of public property. Apparently it was the right thing to do at the time, according to the mob. In 1931 people in Northwest Missouri loaded their children into motor cars and drove forty and fifty miles to a point near Marysville, to witness the burning of a Negro chain to the shingled roof of that land mark of American education, the rural schoolhouse. Men struggled among themselves to get bits of charred bone, blackened chain, and splintered hinges as souvenirs of the occasion. In 1832 a group of strong, tacitturn citizens in Northwest Kansas lynched a man, who was probably insane, for a crime he committed while influenced by liquor which, according to law, he could not obtain. Today citizens of Omaha say little about their new courthouse because it was preceded by the event. The men with souvenirs of the Maryville orgy are not popular. They are shummed by their fellow citizens. And the parents of many of the children who witnessed the horrible scene are spending money with specialists to have the children cured of nervous disorders. The recent lynching in Kansas is being excused on the ground that there is no law providing for capital punishment in Kansas. In 1931 it was legal for the state of Nebraska to take the life of a criminal. In 1931 capital punishment was in force in Missouri. Did it save the Negro who was lynched and the Negro who was burned to death? Were Kansans obeying law when they lynched Read? Apparently it takes more than a sheriff to enforce law. Obviously over a period of time a sheriff is helpless unless law is backed by the sentiment of the active majority. Will a law for capital punishment in Kansas teach Kansans what criminologists have long known, that lynching does not prevent crime? SUNDAYS Here's to the fellow who invented Sundays. He was one swell guy. In the morning you can go to church, you can play golf, or you can sleep. If you go golfing you don't have to cut class, and you can have a morning date. If you have a morning date while you go golfing, Sunday is a wonderful time in two vases. Nothing is prettier than a beautiful girl on a long green fairway in the morning, and it's too early to be bothered by the gang of rowy college boys who were out late the night before. If you stop to concentrate on the girl you're bound sooner or later to fall in love, which reminds us of that old saving, "The better the day, the better the deed." Yes, sir. Sunday is a great day. Now comes Dorothy Parker, poet, declaring that a man, an infant, and a cottage make the only life worthwhile for a woman. Infants are going to be very popular during the economic readjustment. People who can't afford a new car or a new radio or an electric refrigerator will have a baby and explain that it was so expensive that they couldn't afford other things. THE SENATE VS WALL STREET Representative. La Guardia, with his characteristic flair for the dramatic, has extended a challenge to the senate banking committee in his sharp attack on the malfeasures of high finance whistle accompanied the dizzy "ball market" of 1928-29. Assailing vigorously several of Walt Street's leading personalities, Le Guarda unfolded a startling picture of the means by which business concerns have succeeded in unloading their stock on the public at exorbitant prices. Evidence was introduced showing specific instances in which publicity writers were employed to "whip up" a market for stocks with false and misleading information. The Cosmopolitan club will meet at 5 p. m. Sunday, May 1, at 1235 West Campus road. Presence of all members and plagues is required. James Harvey Robinson explains that we get most of our ideas and convictions from others. Students will disagree with him; they will offer exam papers with ow grades as proof of their disagreement because these papers represent to the students what they thought was the exact opinion if the instructor. La Guardia's testimony should open the door for a thorough investigation of the financial machinations which contributed materially to the 1929 debacle, and thus to the present situation. It is ridiculous to assume that those men versed in the intricacies of finance were blind as to what was going on. Yet not the slightest effort was made to protect the public from being swindled. DANGEROUS WOMAN OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Vol. XXI Thank you, May 1, 1922 No. 169 Notice due at Chancellor's office at 11:29 am, on or near afternoon publication day from April 14 to June 15, 1922. It is extremely doubtful, however, whether the senate's investigators will find it possible to make much real progress in their pursuit of Wall Street. The trail leads precariously close to home at times, and courage of the La Guardia type is badly lacking in Washington. To date, the edge in the senate's great "bear hunt" has been all with the "bears." She is openly frank about what she wants to do. In fact she will, if permitted, recite the abilities which she has been developing while in college. She can cook, sow, and keep house. She has been exposed to child welfare courses. Spring is the time to philander and to make discoveries. This season's discovery is a new type of university woman. COSMOPOLITAN CLUB: K. U.

All members are urged to be present. ANNEE KENT, Secretary. She has evidence to prove that she can balance budgets, be most economica, and encourage those about her. She isn't interested in business. She'd like to go to Europe sometime but will wait patiently until! a carefully planned budget will permit such a trip. She is a dangerous new type because she wants to marry. Unusual? Yes. Is it because jobs are source or because she's found that bachelor girls aren't any more content with their lot than are wives?

Address University of Kansas. NOT THINKERS It sort of sticks in the back of our brain that as a little fellow who had done something wrong the first and last sections of reprism were always to "Think next time, son. Think." And you know a lot to that after all. It was Henry Ford who was quoted as saying "The trouble with people is that they do not think." Now that is a very broad and a very general statement, but when you sit down to think, it is one which is true in a multitude of cases. The humped old man who absent-mindedly walks into the path of a speeding car to the six-year-old who burns his finger with a match, a little thinking in every case would have saved much pain. We come to college for dozens of reasons. But whatever the reason, it's safe to say that there are times when a little honest thought would have helpl a lot. It may be the morning of the quiz or it may be the night of the party; it may be solving a math problem or it may be taking the cap off without a bottle-opener, but whatever the case or wherever the place, it's still a safe bet, that we won't think till it all over.

Highway No. 40 — Mud Creek Bridge Editor Daily Kansan: The election is over but not for forgotten, I hope. May I submit the following story to illustrate the tactics of three parties. TAXI Three dogs are after a rabbit. The first dog, the Kayhawk dog, chases after the rabbit wherever he goes without having to get it. The second dog, the Pachia-cmac dog, cuts across on the rabbit, he cleats. The third dog, the Oredog dog, what does he do? He neither chooses a door nor cuts across, he sits down and howls. The moral is this. Neither of the dogs will catch the rabbit unless they change their tactics. "Book to Action?" I should have said, "Book to Action!" and on the student book store question.
