THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1931 FEVER Did ia ever see such weather? Migish! How to get down to studyin' a mighty big problem nowadays. What will happen to all those New Year's resolutions to study every day this semester one knows, for who wants to sit under a study lamp when there's a nice little breeze sneaking in the open window to give you the wanderlust? Aw thunderstation! It just goes to show the kind of breaks a fellow gets when he wants to get somewhere in life. This is no time of year to have to be sitting around on a bunch of hard chairs listenin' to lectures and such. It'd be a heckwalot more fun goin' 'fishin' off down the creek behind the meadow, or takin' a nap under the sumacs; but we're not home so let's go serenading. Syracuse is offering a one-hour course on "How to Study." We recommend that it be made a five-hour compulsory class and offered to students at Kansas. CAMPUS PROBLEMS Campus leaders held their annual discussion of campus problems last evening. Those who attended the speech contest may well feel their time well spent. Such expressions of expression by the students should be encouraged and increased. Among the leading campus problems discussed were suspension of campus news, a discussion of the leading organizations on the hill, fraternities and sororites, athletes in general, and the student scale of values. The various entrants took their subjects very much in earnest, and the whole student body would have done well to attend the contest and heard a detailed discussion of the various topics. The speakers were not allowed sufficient time to become very much "heated up" but there remained no doubt of their sincerity of argument. "The library telephones that 'Rappaccini's Daughter' has been located and is now on reserve"—Sign on the bulletin board in the Journalism building. Wonder if she can be taken out of the building for the varsity tomorrow night? STYLES At last there is an excuse for women wearing straw hats in February. One more man, the weather man, has placed a mark of approval on this one of women's many fobibles. Spring is here, temporarily at least; who can blame the women for wanting a change from their usual winter wardrobe and grasping this heaven-sent opportunity for sporting their spring hats? Especially since in the spring a young man's fancy—, you know the rest of it. Usually there is no understandable reason why women will wear burdensomely warm felt hats in August and straw hats in January and February except that it is just like a woman to do something like that. As yet no men have made their appearance in their summer straws, and probably they will not do so for several months. Nevertheless women are wearing their spring hats blithely; and who would ever have thought that a man would be the one to make it officially right? VALENTINE'S DAY The modern Romee will probably forget that February 14 is Valentine's Day, but in former times it was a day when bashful swains and coy maidens make known their loves. Those were the days when Leap Year and Valentines set hearts a-pounding. The Valentine in its hey-day, were dainty frills, gorgeous haces and beautiful bleeding hearts pierced by Cupid's shafts. New ideas in fashion, more in keeping with modern ideas of romance, have arisen since the day of our grandmother and mothers. The pretty sentiments of the past are little more than a memory; in their stead we have the comic and cheap imitations, or candy and flowers. A pretty custom is falling into decay and our Romeo's are succumbing to commercial exploitation. There is no doubt, though that a few of the students still hold on to those ideas of romantic relations which they hold in their high school days. NAMES A recent news story tells us "Joseph Jacobs, housepainter of the Bronx, N.Y., and his wife, Sallie, named their baby Norma DE-PRESSION Jacobs." A name is a permanent fixture. A child who has to go through life with the result of its parents' idea of a practical joke is not only handicapped but is likely defended before he begins. He is an open target for ridicule. The law or injunction which, a number of years ago, prevented a man with a large family from naming his latest 'attempt—Onetoomany' ought to be brought into effect in this case to protect an innocent baby. OLYMPIC YEAR Sport fans who are planning a trip to California this summer will have more than their share of entertainment. The tenth Olympiad will be held in Los Angeles from July 30 to Aug. 14. Forty nations will send 3,500 athletes to compete in the 150 different events. Those men and women will be the greatest that the sport world has to offer and probably the most interesting group making up the Olympics since their arrival in 1886. Most of the contests will take place in the Coliseum, which seats 105.000. The general program in California will consist mainly in track and field, swimming, boxing, wrestling, weight lifting, fencing, field hockey, yachting, gymnastics, equestrian events, and rifle markmanship. Many of the students of the University are planning to attend the games this summer, and judging from reports from other sections of the country, most of the able-bodied public will be California bound. The year 1932 will go down as a bright spot in American sport history. There's something about the old time religion which, in spite of all other modern tendencies, needs to be incorporated in our present day church services. And, though we are inclined to "turn up our noses" at any thing which is in the least indicative of former customs, we feel a need of that spiritual guidance now so often omitted. SERMONS OR MORAL LECTURES? Our Sabbath sermons have become moral lectures; our inspiring ritual merely form. The criticism falls not on the style of the message delivered, but upon the context. Our ministers are giving us what we, believing ourselves progressive, have demanded; that is, moral lectures based on observation, statistics, and facts. The delivery is exceptionally good and the phraseology often beautiful. The fault lies with us who, though we demand this modern form, expect to find the old religional emotion in it. Our ministers read the Bible text but seldom refer to it again during the course of the service because we, as the congregation, have voiced a desire for the new lecture. Not until we decide in our own ninds whether we prefer the old ermons or the moral lectures can get out of the Sunday service bat for which we are blindly eeking. Campus Opinion "PLEASE" 1 Editor Daily Kansan: Ted Shaun's lecture was the one attraction in Fraser Theater Tuesday afternoon opposed to about half-a-hundred distractions in the theater, and had polished the spherical fruit a bit too long after their preceding class and early exposing students who were forced to wear the pre-dinner aeronautical bull-fest. Now Mr. Shaw is a very interesting speaker, and by dirt of humorous turns up his face to see some of the overcome these distractions and have a margin to spare for the *enjoyment* of the amateur persons in the audience. When he spelled out how it would have been had the speaker been one of little fame and had extended it much more, we have extended him almost no courtesy. Consideration extended to other University audiences in general would be greatly appreciated by both the speakers and the listeners—or the performers and the spectators, as the case may be. Petting parties might be postponed until basketball games and paper raiting until the next K. U. Karnitul. Of course, the art of the ate programs on the Hill. This one more precaution I would suggest: If you find it absolutely necessary to walk out on a program do so as quietly as possible in order not to disturb those poor souls who have fallen asleep in their seats! P. Y. Our Contemporaries the Creightonian: THE_HANDICAPPERS Examinations are a thing of the past for most of us and a great many are looking forward to a few months of intellectual leisure. A few are going to make that period of leisure last until the last few weeks in May and then you can explore on their head wondering how they are going to pass their courses. That same group of students will see others getting their assignments in on time, putting in the required number of hours of study on each subject and yet at the end of the semester they fail. Why are there so many studies studying for examinations. Why is it that some people catch on to things five minutes after everybody else? When two or three courses have been funked they suddenly realize that things would have been altogether different and had done the work that was required. Now is the time to start trying to pass courses, and not four months from now. But regardless of what anyone and everyone says about studies in college, they have no easy time and those who find themselves in a fit of agony every night before a semester examination. Why not do justice to yourself and save money? You can start by starting in at the beginning of the race and not give the professors a four months handicap? There is no student living who has finished a race laboring under that handicap, and all qualifications $m_w$ that there will be. Economize at KEELER'S BOOK STORE Books School Supplies Pictures DR.
