SUNDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1931 ALFALFA BILL TALKS Last week Alfalfa Bill Murray, Oklahoma's colorful governor, addressed an assembly in a speech which was interpreted as his first public move toward candidacy for presidential nominee. While he didn't say so in so many words, Governor Murray indicated that—if he were named to attend the Democratic national convention—he would like to be considered as a Democratic presidential nominee. Well, there isn't much doubt but what Alfalfa Bill will attend the Democratic conclave. And once he's there, the meeting is sure to see plenty of fireworks. Some people are inclined to underrate this plebian governor of Oklahoma, but he has a strong following in the south. And everyone good chance that Alfalfa Bill will receive a whole lot of attention that the public doesn't expect. Far stronger things have happened at national party conventions. "DEAR TEACHER!" The students at Kansas State have made their bid for nationwide publicity. In a recent issue of the Collegian, the student publication, 26 professors were put on the "black list." The article gave the names of the instructors and the reasons why they were disliked by the majority of students who have been in their classes. This startling information was obtained by some type of questionnaire, in which the students classified the instructors in the following groups: black, white, cheekered and grey. Those who made a place for themselves on the black list were described as "dull," "mean," or were condemned for not knowing their subject, or for not making it interesting and understandable. We think this is such an admirable thing for the Kansas State students to do. We are sure that this will immediately help the teaching situation at their college. After receiving such just criticism, and having their faults published in the paper, we are positive that the faculty will immediately become fair, humble, pleasant, interesting, or will get informed on the subject they are teaching, and will bring toys to class to amuse their darlings. But best of all, to get back in the graces of the all-powerful students whose disapproval means everything in the world to the professors, we suggest that these 26 instructors give all the students "A" in the courses they are now taking. We are sure that this will compensate for any irritating habits the instructors may have. CONTRACT AND CONGRESS The bridge battle of the century is on, and while fans all over the United States cagely await news of the progress of their favorites, another event that in the past years has assumed the importance of national news is almost crowded off the front page. Newspapers that ordinarily give two or more columns to the opening sessions of our august national assembly, have crowded the reports concerning that body into a paitry half-column in order to make room for the play-by-play account of the titanic struggle between the forces of Lenz and Culbertson. It would seem from this state of affairs that the average reader is interested in whether the various bridge stars play contract rather than in the possibility that Congress will probably boost taxes to a new high level. The fact that Lenz forgot what trumpis in a critical moment exceses more comment than Hoover's announcement of a national reconstruction finance corporation. But such a wide variance in the degree of reader interest as these two instances is scarcely to be wondered at. People long ago, after many painful disillusions, learned not to take Congress or its doings too seriously. And at about the same time they learned that bridge was a game that could not be played successfully other than in dead earnest. Perhaps when these conditions are reversed we may expect an improvement in government and a decrease in husband murders. CEREMONY The world likes to pride itself upon being dissatisfied with and inconsiderate of ceremonies, but it likes them just the same. The organizations and religions which have always been the most popular are the ones that have the most elaborate ceremonies. The University Christmas is the staging and decorative presentation attract more people than any other musical event on the Hill Why should we not have a candle fund and Christmas tree ceremony in front of Blakehall this year for the benefit of foreign students as has been done in the past? Because it would cost the students the price of a few "cokes" and in this time of depression, that would be too bad! However, in the event that such an affair were arranged, is it not probable that many students would be attracted to it and would contribute to the celebration of the ceremony, not even considering the friendly bond between foreign students and ourselves that would be strengthened thereby? WITH THE HILL CLIMBERS We went over to inspect the new hospital yesterday. It is sure a swell place for children, but the students will be more sickness among K. U. Students after it is finished than K. U. if they fail to put you in the room with the southeast exposure on the wall. We'll have that room spoken for. it's got to be the old applique this time, we had it before. Now keep this under your hat. We have it from the grapevine telegraph that the hospital will open Dec. 19 day after school is out for vacation. Well why, we will get a crack at it after we came home from our vacations. And will we need it? We ask Speaking of bridge hands, a certain engineering "student made five diacons in his hand. His partner held a singleton king in trumps. The illusorious engineer made the king good and two bad guys. He now claims that if he had had two more singlebet king he could have made a grand slam. The game by chance. you. 1 Lowell Thomas beats this story by telling one of four women holding four perfect hands at the same time.

The students voted to suspend with all unauthorized by the University. Kathlyn Williams in "into the Primitive," a five reel feature, is playing at the Bowersock theater.

MENCKEN'S OUTLOOK Mr. MENURES'S OVERLORD he has excellent or superior experience, but true to form in his statements that no betrayment of governmental conditions can result from student participation in politics, that undergraduate Literary work is "atrocious" and that students face an increased makes impossible a group of intelligent college students. Believing that the attention of collegians "is concentrated on mean and not individual," open-mindedness among American students is practically non-existent. Mr. Garrison's statement, which American professors by his statement that few of them are really civilians, is illogical. Mr. Menken's criticisms, the generality of which definitely make them vulnerable to criticism, have a charge of extreme conservation among college students is not in accordance with results of questionnaires. In addition, many graduates in the United States. Every survey which has come to our attention has definitely indicated the favor of college education cards liberal points in politics, education and social life. We need only use the excellent influence on local students on college life, especially in public administration by such institutions as the City College and Public Affairs at Syracuse. His statement, in part, which has been given wide publicity in newspapers all over the country reads: "If a woman fraternities, if a Swarthmore conspirators holding 77 per cent of the women who attend Swarthmore, which tends to be uncomfortable for the majority left outside. Sooner or later everybody will see that fraternities are less attractive." From the Penn State Collegian: A RAN OWN WOMEN'S SKATERNTIFE It would not be for us to come to the defense of the quality of student literary work. It is only necessary to have students in our classroom as social literacy magazines in the colleges did not exist. We are not quite sure how Mr. Mercken would define that type of literature, but we readiness of comprehension, we are confident he has made a grave mistake. The undergraduate of today has become tired of being told, on one hand, that it takes many years to depend on his efforts, and, on the other, that he is the worst specimen of humanity which ever trod a campus walk. And, of course, such pronunciamentos would desist in the future, and turned towards more rational criticism, we feel that their words would be accepted as more than passions or efforts towards sensationalism. Women's fraternities at Swarthmere College apparently have been placed in a precarious position as a result of the stand taken by Dr. Frank Aydelat. We do not believe that this situation is paralleled at Penn State, where non-fraternity men and women live in nurseries and in fraternity organizations. In colleges where women's fraternities own their houses it may be true that the distinction between fraternity and non-fraternity families will be with the dormitories owned by the College this situation does not exist. Dr. Aydelie believes that it is im- Dr. Aydelotte believes that it is impossible for either class to form friendships out of its own sphere without OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Vol. XXIX Sunday, Dec. 13, 1921 No. 76 ALL-UNIVERSITY CONVOCATION: Mr. Norman Thomas will speak at an all-University convention Monday morning at 10 a'clock in the Auditorium.

Since one of Dr. Axeldele contends that their purpose has been defeated, Even though fraternities were abolished, it is our contention that women students with similar ideals and comforts would be better. Would it not be better to correct the internal defects by building up a more friendly feeling between fraternity and college. From the Michigan Daily: COLLEGIATE-ISM Everybody, an article in a Detroit newspaper informs us, has gone collegiate—except the collegians. They have never said they were ever since the day when the public adopted and the staircase and screen spit up the plaza. We do not have to bear the odium of buggy pants, loud overcoats, vipes with numerals, and last but not least, the baggage we carry. To be disbursed; the truth has been told. Nor do we have to open a magazine or read a paper touching on college sports. This is what the public thinks of us." To quote excerpts of the article, "The rah-rah student has vanished with all ease. The rah-rah student has matured smoothly tailored, well-groomed conservative young man, and a modestly dressed young woman, who looks as if she's grown up." The mold which produced the younger business generation since today on the campus agrees with the writer when he says, "It is going to be a sad, sad day for the custodians, the comedians of musical comedy," and it gets the news that the college of the present day is a sophisticated person whose students are spicuous". Which reminds us of the last time the university sponsored the interscholastic swimming meet a little more than a decade ago in school students from Detroit, fearing that among college students they would be peated on the campus with nauseating "crushers" of brilliant hues. They wanted to be, and sincerely believed Dr. Ruthven, in commenting upon he change, said the college student if today is far more sophisticated than it was five years ago, in other words, we have been growing up! we have been completely orientated; and in retaliation for the "die down" stage screen and magazine, we have become conservative, at times ultra- FOR THAT XMAS PARTY Take Her in the Best 25c JAYHAWK TAXI Phone 65 conservative, to remove this blend of character.
