KANSAS Published in the almanac, five times a week, and is used by all interested students of the University of Lawrence. Published in the University of Lawrence, Vol. 32, No. 1 (1957), by Lewis J. McGraw, Jr., Lawrence, Kansas THURSDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1931 MORE MORATORIUMS When President Hoover inaugurated the moratorium plan, he started a long line of suspended actions. Today a judge out in Salt Lake City announced that he would hear no divorce cases from December 18 until January 4. The judge said that he didn't intend to spoil the Christmas season for kiddies whose parents were in the legal throes of matrimonial disagreement. That the venerable jurist was moved by a real human spirit, there can be no doubt. There is, of course, a possibility that such an action during the holiday season of the year might lead to a reconciliation in some cases. At Christmas time there is an intangible something in the air which really does tend toward more harmonious living and understanding. The machine-like divorce mill of the present day, however, seems destined to continue at its overwintered pace. And while Christmas bells probably will cause some tears of repentance, it is safe to say that Christmas, with its round of gay parties and celebrations which young married couples are so adept at throwing, will afford additional grounds for parting of matrimonial ways. There's something awful and tragic about that Christmas day hangover. The mayor of Chicago recentl appealed to the most influencen men of the city to keep it fror going to hell. After all the pullicity Chicago has gotten in thast few years, we thought it wa already there. THIS EXAM QUESTION Minnesota students may now own their own exam questions. Under a new plan approved by the dean of the college, the campus book stores will soil examination questions formerly used in several English courses. If the experiment proves to be a success, copies will be mimeographed for all courses possible. The price has not yet been set. Here's an idea. It really is the only fair thing to do, according to Dean Thomas of Minnesota, who says, "As long as some students have copies available and others do not, under the present system, it will be fairer to make them available to all. If the student knows the type of questions the instructor expects him to answer, he can do justice to both himself and the course." If our university instructors knew that their pet questions were kept not only by some student groups, but also were on sale at Rowlands, there might result some startling changes in the standard exams. We might get a 1932 model for our coming finals, rather than the old "model T" we are expecting. Wettest November at K.U.-Kansan headline. Wonder if homecoming had anything to do with that! MEN FIGHTING MYSTERY Carved in the grey stone facade of Watkins Memorial hospital are those names: Rhazes, Pare, Galeen, Lister, Jenner, Hippocrates, Ossler, and Pastore; names with the exception of Pasture and Hippocrates that mean nothing to the student. Yet since 339 B.C. these men have made the most valuable contributions to medical science. W Rhazes was a Mohammedan, first to describe smallpox and measles. Pare, of France, replaced the terrible process of cauterizing severed arteries with boiling oil with the less painful process of binding with a narrow bandage. Pasteur, French pearson, saved the wine trade of France and Germany and by so doing gave to us our present method of partially sterilizing milk. Hippocrates was a Greek physician, whose character and ability made him so famous that today he is held in universal veneration by medical men. Edward Jenner, English physician, discovered vaccination. The English surgeon, Sir Joseph Lister, caught the significance of Pasteur's discovery and applied it to antiseptic operative technique in surgery. Sir William Osler, Canadian, one time instructor in Johns Hopkins university, made important contributions to medical science by his study of diseases of the spleen and blood, infections of the heart, and malaria. Claudius Galen, Greek physician and philosopher, wrote valuable articles on physiology and anatomy. Each trying to solve the mystery surrounding the human body; each making some cree discovery which helped his brother make a greater discovery; each a great man, worthy of commemoration. These poor fraternity boys! Just when it was about time for one of the local groups to pull their annual suicide act, someone steps in with a version of good old Chicago kidnapping. Campus Opinion Editor Daily Kansas: For the past several weeks, I have been on my mind several questions that I would like to ask. Does the K U. in South Carolina formed yet, that the United States is row in a world deep depression? Do the students here from the United States? Has anyone told them that most of the students here were born in the United States, and that they have been living there? I am disgusted, however, with the factually seeming lack of interest in this topic. Why do they try to overlook that? Do they think that prosperity is really here, and we are only imagining that they have seen it? One who can answer these question? Last week I took a girl friend to see the play, Macther, given at Fraser Hall. I want to point out that I would not have made the remark remarked made by two of my English professors when they spoke of the play. They said, "And the prices are cheap." And the prices are the students who are working. I have been unable to attend the various plays and entertainments—I could not afford it. I went to this one because they wanted the "amazingly low" meant that ticket would be sold for a price that is lower than usual; I thought that a small ticket would see to a play and get a little recreation with a girl for company. To me, an "amazingly low-pressed" ticket means that I would see to a play for fifty cents. I was wrong; it was embarrassed to me when I was told by the attendant that two tickets cost two dollars. We had to go home. And the price-fisher think that a dole is more effective than this time of universal depression! I will bet that Fraser auditorium was not full to capacity a week ago Tuesday. Now I ask, why do not the price-curve improve the student's chance to work improving the public given the common public a chance for "higher education"? And why not fill up with more money. I would like to take my girl friend to John M cornuck, but I will not be able to do it with my son. I do sense. does. who set the prices for those entertainments realize that a slim offer is not enough to lack of artistic taste? Don't they know that often those who get the greatest seats can be more expensive. those people who cannot afford even a 'model T rattler?' And, it seems to me, that there are a few for maybe a few of our students. We take their way through the School of Fine Arts, and are required to attend in order to must they, too, pay the higher prices? OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Vol. XIXI Thursday, 3 Dec, 1931 No. 64 I have been an usher in the auditorium for some time, so I feel competent to take it over. I don't have a full house at the next conference. Will not Mr. McCormack enjoy it better if he is singing to a full house? Or will he be singing as seated?
