FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1031 WINTER IS NIGH Old Man Winter came out of hibernation the other day, and gave the western coast of the United States, Canada, and Alaska a taste of what he has in store for us when he feels in the mood. From the Arctic circle to California he has struck, and with irresistible force he is plowing slowly toward a certain hill known as Mt. Orend. Students had best be taking a last long look at red autumn leaves and pungent out-doc' fires, for Old Man Winter is just around the corner, polishing up his bellows and snow machine. As soon as he gets through with the little job of work he has along the Western coast he'll come down to pay us a visit, and believe us, it will be as unwelcome as that of a plague. Those mental perverts who have the time of their life when they are neck deep in a snow bank may enjoy such news as this, but the rest of us poor mortals will commence to rummage in our trunks for red flannels, (they're fashionable this year), spats, overshoes, high boots and stocking caps. Up on the mountain the wind which perversely blows from four directions at once, will build fifteen-foot drifts and then pick them up and throw them down the back of our neck. Yes, truly winter is on his way, and don't say we didn't warn you. We see that a star is going to open the gates of the 1933 World's Fair at Chicago. That's a dirty trick to play on America's crop of autograph-seekers! A KRAUT SCARCITY Another woe has been added to the long list of troubles which the average American citizen has borne so patiently. He has stood up well, and has courageously met every new trouble without finching, but there is another bugaboo looming on the horizon which may prove to be the last straw. There is a crop shortage in this land of plenty. Hooray! Wha, not so fast with the celebration; for the crop shortage is that of sauerkraut. Only 300,000,000 pounds of sauerkraut will be available this year, one and half-less pounds per capita than last year. Oh, dear, there seems to be no end to a man's troubles. If it is not over-production, then it is under-production. If it is not prohibition, then it is the secrecy of kraut. Dogginon, anyway. Aw, why couldn't the shortage have been in spinach rather than in kraut? Sauerkraut is such a healthful food; well nigh indispensable to some people. What is a person going to tell a thirsty, over-inquisitive visitor when he inadvertently happens to smell delightful, sour odors coming up from the cellar? The time-honored albi, "I just opened a fresh barrel of sauerkraut," is not likely to work so well this year. One may have to take the visitor into his confidence and offer him a drink. SATURDAY'S GAME As a hungry Jayhawk preens his feathers, and a Bengal Tiger dusts off his stripes, hundreds of convivial souls are preparing for that gridiron battle of battles in Lawrence Saturday. While this season's fray will be a fight to the finish between the underdogs of the Big Six conference, it is no less a classic, an institution which regardless of its official importance concerning football titles is the most important athletic contest of the year as far as Kansas and Missouri are concerned. Alumni and students from both bodies will attend the big clash. In fact, as our old friend Ben Bernie would say, "Everyone will be thach." It is a climax of all that is athletically important in the fall curriculum. As we neigr this all-important close of the football season, we remember that all has not been clear sailing for the Jayhawk team this year. They haven't achieved the fame of that great Kansas team of the year previous. But they have fought a good fight, and no doubt will rise to great heights, win or lose, in the game Saturday. More than once a lowly-rated Jayhawker team has come from behind to down a fast charging Tiger squad. Dope just doesn't count. Well we're all ready for a great light, and the Homeowners will be ready for anything. They usually are. And it's without a bit of worry that we predict that no one will be disappointed. Latest reports from Washington indicate that we are going to have a "wet" winter. BACK AGAIN! Homecoming! Campus pals alive with st. students, grads, mothers, mothers. Eyes dazzled by the sides of shining cars. Prosperous men, with cigars stuck in their mouths. Women in fur coats, trying to look collegiate. Traffic jam on the campus, police swearing and browing whistles. Banners everywhere: "Beat Mizou". Grads standing in front of frats, chancing hands with the oledges. "He's from home. Nice boy. I thought you pledge him." Cars pull away loaded to the murmur boards. Bright eyes looking out over the valley. . . . "And there's where Bill and I had that fight." . . . Sad eyes looking down the campus. . . . "Gee, wouldn't it be good to go here again?" . . . Beautiful girls in bright colored roadsters, hatless boys at their sides. . . Proud parents looking on approvingly. . . The game. . . . 25,000 people straining forward tensely. Rear on roar when the touchdown comes . . . "Yeah team! Yeah, team!" . . . Pennants waving two bands playing, bits of cardboard sailing into the air. . . a hot dog vender cries his wares into a sudden stillness. . . The gun; game's over. . . Cars, pretty girls, pennants, soft music, bright lights, old grads. . . Homecoming. Somehow or other we have come to a point where we just refuse to get excited whenever some supposedly "ominent and learned" psychologist makes a statement which he believes will set the world on fire, and incidentally, of course, gain him a lot of publicity. The latest of these statements comes from Dr. W. Moulton Marston, visiting professor at Long Island University, who says that the modern college girl cultivates a reputation for being a "red hot baby." THE VANISHING FLAPPER In the first place, doesn't the eminent doctor know that "red hot babies" went out, along with the knee-length skirt and the boyish bob? 'Can't he at all aware that modern college women, and all others for that matter, are now cultivating an attitude of reserve and dignity which is almost mid-Victorian? In the second place any woman, be she a eo-ed or an ultra-sophisticated product of our modern civilization, is not delicately and openly going to "cultivate" any attribute by which she aspires to "get her man." She's going to be darn secretive about it. RUMORS Rumors floating around the Hill to the effect that the student body will or will not be dismissed a day early for Thanksgiving vacation, should Kansas win the game with Missouri, bears all the earmarks of A-No.1, double dipped, speculation. The more optimistic souls who are adding fuel to the "out early" propaganda base their hopes on the tradition that school will be dismissed earlier than planned, in case Kansas triumphs in its annual gridron clash with the Tigers. The pessimists state that school will be held as usual, win or lose, and cite the depression as the reason for the probable abandonment of the tradition. But, strange as it may seem, none of the rumors have the slightest basis of fact. The action that will finally be taken in this matter rests entirely 'n the hands of the administration, and not in student opinion, as some are prone to believe. If the administrative officers should decide that it would be unwise to dismiss classes earlier than has been announced, there will undoubtedly be those who will raise a hue and cry about breaking traditions. On the other hand, should classes be dismissed, it will be done with the conscious knowledge that the money required to run this University for one day is being wasted for that day. In other words, it's a question of "What price tradition?" No matter what the decision of University authorities may be, one thing is certain; that is that the student body should take a sporting attitude toward the administration's action and back it up who heckledly. COMPLICATIONS The United States is in a key position in regard to the Manchurian conflict. Without its full, close co-operation, the League of Nations will not be able—will at least be indisposed—to take definite, irastic action to make Japan withdraw her troops from the disrupted area. Already there is talk of a compromise plan, which some insist on calling the "Dawes plan for Manchurin." Tuesday the press carried reports of a change in the American attitude toward Tokio, which was putting doubts on the sessions in Paris, and Wednesday there was gloom in Nanking, for there was no hope of strong action regarding Japanese occupation of Manchuria by the League. It was felt that the United States was relaxing its firm stand toward Japan, and regretted having worked so intimately with League leaders during the last session of the council at which Prentis Gilbert, United States council general at Geneva, had been present. Ambassador Charles G. Dawes, who is taking his place, took an important part in private negotiations, but did not sit at the formal meeting. Secretary Stinson and Mr. Davese feel that little can be gained by sitting in, while to do so might create complications. The situation certainly is becoming complicated. There is likely to be a good deal of backdown and compromising, but this will become more and more difficult for both the League of Nations and Japan and China, especially for Japan, as the situation advances and becomes ever more serious. WITH THE HILL CLIMBERS In this column is a greeting, a hope, and an admission: "At a new arrival, I am welcomed by the people pleased, in Ben Bernie's imitable fashion we say: 'We hope you will like it.'" The men said Friday "We won't have a fight." The men said Monday, "Well, we will." By now we don't know what this decoration may be, anyway. Curt Bawen and Hassig, of the Phil Dell house, have been awarded the title 'Wino Kinzu' "They are the best pottery makers" to the organized house- sales potatoes to the organized house- Twenty years ago a small-town editor made the assertion that although you approve for a time, it could never exist because it was too rough. And now they say that they expect 25,000 copies of the book. Could he consider the edit was wrong? Talk about "serious youth." A cer- erminal graduate seminar会 takes place on Friday, Oct. 10, at the observation of watch one bug pass another on the narrow rim of a window will sink. The Union soda fountain turned in the case of the death of 80 Manager Newjef seams as pleased over the fact as was ever any of the successful kurtenders we knew before. A list is being compiled of all the men on the Hill who are allowing their beards to grow for Hobo day. While they can certainly do it, it will certainly be illustrious. The Kansan claims the honor of being the only newspaper whose woman reporter accidentally art in on a man's death and asks for his name is withheld. Ladies and gentlemen, this is an anniversary! One year from today this column may be a year old. Shall we celebrate? Maurice "Mac" McManus, one of the shaping political lights on the Hill, is a constant user of the term "geese" meaning dollars. "Geese fly" Get it? Thursday afternoon two ears, both flambantly decorated and one chasing the other, tore wildly across the campus. On the one in the rear was a woman with those words printed on it; "Just Married. Watch Kcmpa City Grow!" One aspiring freshman on the stage will play the cold piano in the lobby of the Loew's Midland theater in Kansas City. He tells us, however, that the auditors had been stunned by his performance. TOO MUCH FOR THE FIDDLER A visiting coed from a large Colorado University recently made a statement on Mt. Oread that fairly made the heads of the Jayhawkers who heard it swim. In a report before a convention, she said, "We paid $81 for our tenure orchestra, but we felt that the large sum of money we put into it was worth while." Be sure and write, folks. The Orcadites who were listening gasped, and looked at one another in amazement. For are not the members of orchestras here on the campus being mistreated at the rate of $125 and $130 per evening? Aren't the poor musicians threatening to leave school because they can't live on the meager salaries they are given? The various orchestras have been telling us all this and more. When the closed varsity dates were opposed on the ground that they were injurious to the welfare of the various orchestras, the student councils changed them to limited dates, so that each orchestra would have a chance. And still they are compiling of mistreatment. Orchestra members are evidently accustomed to maintaining a higher standard of living than other self-supporting students on the Hill. They must reduce their prices as others have done. They must come down from their high horse. It is true that those who dance must pay the fiddler, but there is no need to pay beyond the value of his services. The statement made by the Colorado student demonstrates the fact that other schools are not doing it. Why should we? All nominating positions for filling the vacancy of College representative to the Merit Student Council must be filled with the accretion by 12 vceh week.

In recognition of this fact, the custom which required every foreign dignitary to place a wreath on the tomb of the unknown soldier has become more common longer is permitted. Such observances stimulate anew old antagonisms and war attitudes which can die only after a generation of forgetfulness. Because of this, the League of Nations has upheld the custom of wreathing all the recall the World war be drowned. To illustrate the fact that dramatics are overemphasized in elementary instruction, a professor in educational psychology found himself whose mother found him pacing back and forth in front of the fire place, having come to the scene. Upon investigation, the mother found that he was preparing a soem to dramatize at school. The peen "The fire burns low The red coals glow The kid turns on the spit." Our Contemporaries Militaristic Armistice The abolition of the Armistices day observance is in step with certain requirements. We should note that the more subtle psychological causes of war are quite as potent as patient experiences, and these are hard to explain. The University of Minnesota for the first time in 1913 failed to recognize Armvormt day as a holiday when it happened on November 11. The passing of this holiday was regretted by those students who felt that it meant on more day of hard work. The realization that those factors make or war attitudes is an important gateway toward world peace. Whatever the size of the army, a nation will not go to war unless it psychologically is prepared and if we show us the importance of triviles in the formation of attitudes. By the knowledge we may work for progress. Minnesota Daily. Living Together in the Nation" will be the subject of the minister's discourse. Sunday at 11 o'clock at the Unitarian church.
