MONDAY. NOVEMBER 2. 1931
YOU GUESS!
Saturday afternoon the Oklahoma Aggies plastered Kansas with a 13 to 7 defeat on the Stadium field here. The defeat came as surprise after the first half showing of the Kansans, who had amassed a seven-point lead and seemed favorites to hold it.
We give up! All season we have been trying to fathom the thing which seemed to be dogging the Kansas team. We have called it lack of co-operation, inefficiency; and numbers of reasons have been offered, but the Jayhawkers just go right along losing games through all sorts of queer situations.
Take a glance over the summary of Saturday's game and you will see that Kansas outplayed the Aggies in almost every department of the game. Yet the acumen of the players was down along the line of this season's games just such freakish outcomes have been noticed.
CLOSING HOURS FOR MEN
We're for the team with all our heart, and it would be a big thrill if they were to win a game but what everyone would like to know is what the hook is the matter. It isn't lack of school spirit that is being felt by the student body, it's just bewilderment.
Is there a college woman wn
has not at some time fervent;
wished for closing hours for men.
The time when this desire be-
comes greatest is when she is
rushing frantically toward
mom and house now
moving in her mind that it is alrea*
d past closing time.
When she is late the man calmly leaves her to the mercies of the housemother or landlady, be those mercies what they may. Then again does the longing for closings hours for men rise up in her bosom. What a treat it would be for them to have to realize just once what an experience it is to have to keep wondering what time it is, and if the date's watch agrees with the housemother's.
Would it not be unusual and entertaining for a man to be met at the door by a housemother with a cold, glassy stare, or perhaps a glare, and the chilling remark, "You are five minutes late young man, and will be campusped for the next week."
This idea of closing hours for men will probably never be in effect. Nevertheless there is one problem that such a rule could help solve. That is the late date situation. We listen quietly while the dean of women, the house-mothers, and landladies, tell of the evils of such things. Then the thought comes to us. Did they ever think of having closing hours for men, as well, as women? That might help. Miracles do happen, you know.
LIBRARY BOOKS
Don't you admire the spirit of college students in the library? They check out books from the reserve desk and always use them
right there. They never underline sentences because that would spoil the book for the next reader. They are very careful not to tear any pages, so the next reader will have as good a chance to read the book as they have had. They never "dog-ear" the leaves because that would hinder easy reading by the next student. It is remarkable to watch the students in the library handle the books so carefully.
THE NEXT DEPRESSION
Albert Wiggin, chairman of the Chase National bank, thinks it will be impossible to prevent the next depression. "What we have learned the next generation will forget," he said.
Wr. Miggin is a recognized authority on economic affairs, but we hope his statement will prove false. We believe that if the younger generation tries hard enough, it can make his prophecy false. But it is human nature to forget our troubles and live in gleefful abandonment as soon as
prosperity begins to return. Th, perhaps is one of the major reasons why depressions have come back again and again.
This depression has been one of the most wide-spread and the longest in history. Its length and vastness may contribute to the economic salvation of future generations, if society refuses to forget what it has learned, thoughtfully, scientifically analyze causes of depressions, and think creatively on cures and safeguards. The fact that a thing has always been so is no reason why it should always be so.
The task may look hopeless to the older generation, but it should seem conquerable to the thinking youth of today; for he has gone through an economic struggle—has at least observed it—the intensity of which no previous generation has known.
HONEST KANSANS
Record the year of 1931 as rc markable in that the State o Kansas handed to her inhabitants a beautiful bouquet. One that spreads a subtle aroma of confidence over each motor vehicle operator.
Wishing to protect pedestrians and at the same time make motor car operators aware of their responsibilities, Kansas requires that each operator carry in his car or on his person a driver's license.
The card permits easy identification by public law enforcers and may be offered to a young bander by the strange motorist wishing to cash a check. It tells age, height, weight, sex, color of eyes and hair, and gives the ad dress.
But on the reverse side of the card is printed that which restores man's faith in mankind and protects him against Kansans, are beyond reproach.
But the bouquet.
In what state, other than Kansas, could be found such honest offenders? Kansas, pioneer of prohibition, knows it has no drunken drivers, speeders, no careless motorists.
it begins. Record of violations.
And beneath that: Date of convictions, etc., nature of offense, suspension of license, reinstatement.
Thus the state is aware, from a long list of fatal motor car accidents, that Kansas may violate motor vehicle inws. It is conscious of the fact that such offence or violation may bring the offender into court for trial which may result with conviction. It knows that the record of such convictions will be recorded and kept by the offender. The procedure has been provided for on the reverse side of the operator's license card.
Whatever violation of motor vehicle laws occurs is purely accidental. And the state knows, as the Quakers knew, that violators and offenders will gladly carry a brand of their violations in the same spirit that Hester Prynne carried the Scarlet Letter.

Keep Them Awake
A professor in history injected two jokes into a recent lecture—the first light of honor to break the monotony of the lecture and to show the incident as they left the lecture room and the consensus seemed to be that the lecture was the point interest of the course. In his course. Yet it is significant that the lecturer presented just as many dry facts as he had in preceding tables and figures, which he told the same manner and tone of voice.
The slight break in the stiff formality he had maintained was appreciated by his students because they had just about reached the stage where they believed the speaker inhuman. The two students, who had been selfless, but they presented a change in the ordinary factual forage and students are sensitive to such changes.
Lecturers who are the forerunner in their fields at the University usually take an interest in the use of their own and an appreciation of the humorous. They have the power of holding student interest and of giving their facts in such a manner that they can understand the evidence they recognize that their audience is young and know that they can win their attention through suggestion, persuasion or rather than the dry enumeration of facts.
Education's Responsibility
The Daily Illini.
It has been said that a baby is potentially the most valuable citizen in the entire social universe, because of its ability to love, protect and everybody loves it, and second, it hates no one. The child has its hereditary complex, to be sure, but it is nevertheless very complex, so set if properly developed. Its training naturally starts in the home, where first contact is with parents and close family, and then when the child is ready to begin his formal schooling, we find an individual entirely different from the innocent parent. He has lost a good bit of his ambiality; he now has a few people that would not be properly clasped as friends; and he now recognizes his parents recognize a undesirable.
Some of our lecturers take their work too seriously. They might profit immensely by attending the lectures of these professors, who are courses of the University. An observation of the results attained by these other men through the employment of a bit of humor pow and then might lose their abilities which exist in their own work.
With the entire world a melting pot for new social and economic theories, educational forces today face a grave burden of history. It falls to their lord to mollot the thinking of our future leaders, to provide environment and incentives which provoke thinking that will make it worse than ever before. The one thing forever and inevitably true about human nature is that it changes. It is upon this assumption that education should be based on activities are based. If there were no hope of a changing human nature, both in adults and in children, then money would not be given to be vain. Whether human nature will change for the better or worse depends on a large extent upon the in-
with personalities of various natures.
It is during these years that he is made into the kind of individual he will be known as future. It is the type of educations, influences and personalities, to which he is exposed that will affect his most.
The racial status of the human race has been almost miraculously improved since the dawn of history but remains a barrier for many cultures, through their intimate contact with youth, have both an opportunity to improve and to be more provergent in human nature could be made in a single generation if parents and teachers were but aware of and understood this difference.
With n Goal in View
- Purdue Exponent.
"On college campuses from Columbia, New York, to California this fall according to all reports, a new student strikes. He has shed his coonkin coat and rolled up his shaved sleeves and given up his automobile. Even his flask is gone. His driver's license is said to have replaced nine stubs and movies."
This is the way Emcee Bernard has characterized the effect of the depression on college students.
A new era has, indeed, come upon our institutions of learning. Students are becoming aware of something very important in the course of a considerable length of the carcooler element. The necessity, not only of cutting down on expenses while in school, but also of making a job after graduation is making students throughout the nation look upward as something more than a gift with days of play with an insend in real life.

Hard times in terms of purchasing power are even harder on the campus. Mr. Reed, who graduated from Richard P. Doberty, director of Boston University's bureau of business research, "The dollar today is worth more than the hourly student work," he says. "Ut tuition is anything but lower, and many colleges have raised these costs. Board and staff of the college bill, has been lowered very little. Don Christina Gauss reports in The Press Today that the average fee for a degree of the 'ru-ral' boy—"College life has taken on a different aspect. From the standpoint of the professor, it is hard to know how many undergraduates it has become almost grim." He goes on to say, how faculty have happily adjusted and the general attitude in a determination to put the wolf on the head when it comes to the door.
The wisdom of placing before the student a definite goal, the inevitable outcome of the situation, is yet to be decided. So students must meet the realities of life, and perhaps this getting down to the basis of things will make the present generation aaron
On the other hand, this mirage of goal which the student is forced to touch with much of his body with much of the intangible which might otherwise fill his life. Goals have to do with mortality and the interchange between preeminence at country fairs. The universe is converged with the intangible—the intimate world of stars and tepees and starlight and strong winds.

Ambition has no place for mood—no place for those experiences which are important to the student. For inspirational talks on success, impose a serifism against which the free verse is allowed. A beacon to his community, but he invitably bends much which the unitary curriculum imposes.
