FRIDAY, MAY 15, 1931 ANOTHER RESOLUTION Everyone reacts deeply the recent tragedies which have occurred on highways and the accidents which have caused the deaths of University students. Everyone seems to agree that an effort would be too great which might aid in avoiding such accidents in the future, but the resolutions suggested by the joint committee of the councils contain a note of hysteria, and fall short of being anything very constructive in the way of working out the problem. A letter, stating that "it is not in keeping with the policy of the University of Kansas that students maintain cars," sent to parents of students would probably do more to keep cars off the campus than any of the other suggestions, but that would only have effect in a few cases. Most student drivers of cars have full consent of parents, and most parents who are already entrusting their children with cars will continue to do so. A written consent in the hands of the Chancellor would merely be a formality which might in some cases be evaded, or grudgingly complied with. If such a ruling is made, it will be difficult to enforce, and it will not materially decrease the number of student driven cars. After all, the resolution is only a resolution, and does not express the concenus of student opinion. It will probably succeed in saying much and accomplishing little as resolutions in the past have done. The solution of the whole problem lies not in prohibiting cars, but in seeing that students can and do drive cars capable. No amount of rulings or restrictions of any kind can make same drivers out of people who do not want to drive sensibly, and that is true whether on the campus or off it. Regulating traffic and parking lies within the province of the governing body at the University, but it is taking away personal liberty to curtail the ownership of cars. Such a move would be met by antagonism on the part of the students. Why should the number of student cars be further restricted? Students would co-operate with the administration and governing body in any attempt which would effectively work toward the prevention of accidents, but forbidding some who have been driving cars to keep them is a long way from a constructive solution of the problem. Those bandits who pilfered Carey, Kansas stores with a truck to carry their booty in, left the whole community in a truculent disposition. THE JAYHAWKER-BOOK OF FACTS THE ATHLETES The great index of K. U. faces it. He appeared in the Hike yesterday and every place one looked, he saw a huddled group of people bending over a large black and silver volume. And those who drag about never cracking a book were the first to get their Jayhawkers. If you want to know the name of that person who was in your class when you were a freshman and who was taking classes since then turn to your Hawkeyer. What would a blind date be without the aid of that book. You can look him up, find out what he belongs to, if he stands in the back row you know he is tail—oh, the Jayhawkers are great helps. then there is the humor section, and as a well-known Joe College remarked, "It's only the big shots who get in there." Yes, we suppose they are the big shots but it doesn't seem to matter much what kind of a shot. Many a person who had secretly been dreadning the appearance of the book for fear of what this section might reveal, rested quietly for the first time last night. Debate Fraternity Initiates—headline, the new members always do come i r or a lot of discussion. AN UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT Two former students of the University were given convictions on two counts, possession and transportation of liquor, in court yesterday. The case is a regetable one, and one which has unfortunately attracted much attention. The two men were well-liked and respected by the students on this campus, and witnesses testified concerning their good character and industry. The same thing happened to them that might have happened to a considerable number of men on the campus. They are victims of circumstances, circumstances which were partly of their own making, but which have a far bigger cause within law of the nation, and in the bungling justice law has of selecting and punishing violators. All year long the Men's Student council funnies and punishes students who violate the Volunteer Law. Other students have been arrested on similar harges, and the charges have been outsponed. There is no use whitewashing the fact that there have been still are violators of the Volunteer ct, who escape attention and avoid the lurking publicity which has been given o the particular men. Missouri signed a boxing hill yesterday in lengthening the duration of bouts. There was no stipulation, however, demanding that the pugilists actually fight. THE WRONG ATTITUDE Bad checks are always a nuisance, but as the end of the year approaches they are causing local merchants an unusual amount of trouble. Of course merchants wish to collect on bad checks before careless individuals skate off and forget all about them. An exasperating case has recently irritated one Lawrence merchant to the extent that he has appealed to a University representative to help alleviate the situation. In one particular case he was considerable time trying to get in touch with the author of a "rubber" check, and when he finally did he had to threaten court action to collect. Check writing is for the convenience of the buyers, not the merchants. Merchants take them to allow the customers convenience. Checks have become a part of our way of doing business, because they expedit tradeing and are safer and handler mediums of exchange for the buyer. For buyers to take advantage of the privilege and then abuse it by causing the merchant unnecessary trouble is disgusting. The worst aspect of the difficulty is that, if these practices continue, local merchants may place restrictions on check writing, make check black lists, or refuse to cash all of them. WANTED: SUGGESTIONS With the semester rapidly drawing to a close, many students are more interested in the final grades they will receive than they are in the ultimate value of the courses studied. Many have regarded classes as something compulsory to attend and something to receive a grade from with the least possible amount of work. With such a view in mind, it is hardly possible that the student will realize the full value of his work here this semester. Instructors, in many cases, have not helped to make the students understand that the courses he attends are directly for his benefit. When assignments are given, little thought is held by the instructor for student opinion, and this in no way helps to express the true purpose of a college education: That a student is to get as much out of his work as possible to advance him in the cultural and social world. Wouldn't it be profitable to the faculty members to investigate the opinions of the students concerning the different courses offered here? Why not ask as one of the final examination questions: How in your estimation can this course be made more interesting and profitable to both the student and the instructor? If the instructor regarded the answers objectively, he might receive many suggestions that would enable him to improve the course next year. THE RESERVE ROOM MART With spring the tendency is toward the library; it makes no difference whether the person has any business or not in the reserve room, for the place does afford a forum unequaled by any other on the campus. Those who are attempting to catch up in their work no doubt find it distracting to discover that most of the seats are taken by others who could do their study at home, but seek out the library because of the vantage point it offers in the dating field. Such a plaint will go unheeded. Still, less disturbance inside the reserve room could be accomplished if only the men and women students could meet each other outside the reserve room. One goes to the library and sees another who might need someone to carry their notebook and pencil home for them. Such chance meetings are only accidental, of course. Oh my, yes! In the Olateh murder case, the attorney told the jury that fake evidence would prove a certain point in the case according to the press dispatch. We command the attorney for his frankess. Campus Opinion THAT EARLY MORNING WALK Editors Delila Konson: Not long ago there appeared in the Karsan an article on early morning walks, and the joy and peace which they gave the soul. We read the article "Good," "Good," we thought, "at last some one has found the ideal solution for spring fever." We'll try one of these walks. So the other morning we saliued forth for a communion with nature at best, the hub end of an early spring day. The sum was just poking its head over the horizon, failing utterly to impractical any semblance of warmth in Marvin grove, and the dew got all over our new sport shoes and spotted them on his jeans. The snow cleaned. It was colder yet down under the trees, for the sun's rays hadn't reached there yet, and we commenced walking out. Wishing to listen to the symphony of the bird calls and watch the glory of the sky, I snapped a picture of green grass, thereby practically ruining the seat of a ten dollar pair of shoes. After some minutes it immediately minutes out of bed than any of his brothers, came ambling along. After several half hearted attempts to put on a suit in disgust and went on back to bed. We followed his suggestion and got in another hour of sleep before our eight-thirty, but we wished the writer of this book to stay on for parts cleaned—One Who Tried It. At the Recital The artistic work of Ruth Spindler, winner of the tri-state organ contest in St. Louis last week-end, was highly commended by those who saw him as an innovator in the University auditorium. Miss Spindler played a program of exceeding difficulty and played it in a manner that impressed such other older and more experienced people. Organ music is the really majestic and inspirational music of all time. Miss Spindler chose as her numbers "The Pianist" in 1978, a program began with the long and difficult "Pantasia and Fague in G Minor," her Technique was beyond竭竭. By Lela Hackney Following this came two charming numbers, "100" and "123". It is by Fausto and a show work "Tu Es Petra" by Mulet. Much agility on the keyboard was required in the performance. Perhaps the most popular number of Shakespearean plays is *Sowebery*. The composition would play a legato style, and the tinkling of the links at intervals waves charming and dramatic.

It is difficult to determine what can acquire cue-coordination of muscles to play a number in which the pedaling was so rapid it was remarkable, and Ms Spindler is deserving of much credit for her excellent manipulation of the strings. Ms Spindler was accompanied by the University Symphony orchestra directed by Karl K. Wuestenstein in her second performance at David Stanley Smith. The entire work was well played by both orchestras and organ, and was well received by the audience. Nude Moonlight Bathing Splits Santa Barbara Shimmons Bros. TAXI!
