THURSDAY, MARCH 12, 1931 A THIRD PARTY THREAT Republican and Democrat independents are holding conferences in Washington to the extent that their more orthodox colleges are becoming perturbed over the possibility of a third party organization. Senator Norris, veteran Nebraska Republican, denies that there is any purpose to organize a new party in the meetings he is to preside over. No matter what the outcome, the conferences at least assure vital discussion of national problems of economics. Prohibition is not to be included, but these problems are: Agriculture, power, unemployment, tariff and representative government. With dissension and semblances of new parties, an interesting presidential election may be forthcoming. In the end it may stack up something like this: Hoover and hard times, Smith and repeal of prohibition, and a third party advocating a return to the soil. The house has voted to appropriate $3,500 to advertise Kansas with "constructive publicity." It would take more money than to that erase the memory of Brinkley. HUNGRY GEORGE An ad in last night's Kansan announced, "Lost-Mant" overcook in George's lunch." The loss of the overcoat doesn't bother us so much, but we are worried about George's appetite. Anyone who can sit down to a meal so big that an overcoat loosens itself in his vains possesses an attribute that is wasting itself here in the University. A PROMISING PROFESSION Contending that the gigolo is "a much maligned institution," Francis X. Bushman, actor, has found that he is tired of hard times and willing to "sell himself" to some wealthy lady as her husband. Many observers may agree with him that gigolos are maligned; no matter how contemptuously they will be regarded, there are people who will admit their persecution have overstepped the bounds. But whether many red-hooded citizens will join him in considering the gigola as an "institution" is another question. Institution is an appellation the average layman reserves for more significant customs and places, and to "institutionalize" the gigolo destroys much of the common man's sense of proportion. But perhaps we shall change our minds if Francis Bushman becomes one Thirty mounts have been sent from the art department of the University to the Western Art Association. The Thoughtful Freshman said he didn't know there were that many horses in Lawrence. COUNTY AND UNIVERSITY The president of the man's student council was placed in an embarrassing position when he was asked by the Douglas County authorities to divulge the name of a student who had been questioned and penalized by the council for stealing and drinking on the campus. The council had proceeded as it has always done in such cases, and penalized the student 11 hours of Uni+viversity credit. The county attorney asked the president of the council for the name of the defendant. Acting under a rule adopted several years ago, the president refused to give the name. The members of the student council have stated that they are more than willing to co-operate with the county authorities in any way possible, but that to become detectives in liquor cases would greatly hamper their work. It now remains for the county attorney, if he must get the desired information through this channel, to subpoena a member of the council, in which case he will be forced to tell or incur a penalty of $100 and 30 days in jail. The suggestion might be made that the desired information could possibly be obtained from another Lawrence attorney who is at the present time representing Douglas County in another case, and who was present and tool part in the questioning of the defend int before the student council. Since reading the list of collocations which everyone should know at K. U. we wonder how we have managed to communicate to anybody. A COLLEGIATE POLICE FORCE An "ultra collegiate" atmosphere prevailed at the Nibble Sandwich shop in Kansas City when it was recently raided, so the newspapers tell us; they say further that "when the orchestra was quiet there were cheers and songs from the patrons." And so this "collegiate" atmosphere was created. Any group of half-tight people, young or old, will be noisy and cheer when music stops. It is not a college characteristic. Some college students do these things, too, but not the majority. If our collegian does something of ri- wide, but when another wins a scholarship it makes a very slight impression on the public consciousness. If it is necessary for a police force to "go collegiate" before they can get evidence to arrest anyone on liquor charges perhaps a course at the University of Kansas would be a good pre-requisite for admission to the force, for there are those who would have it believed that this is a school of experience. The bills that have been introduced in the Kansas house total 700 and those in the senate 400. And next week, when the legislators reach their homes, they'll find some more. LET'S GO TO EUROPE Everyday that cry is heard among University students who are trying to think of something new and different for the coming summer vacation. Ask them why they want to go to Europe and nine times out of ten they'll mumble something about art collections, museums or places of historical interest. But these are not their reasons, and they know it. The very students who talk most about going abroad have probably never even been inside the Spooner-Thayer Art Museum or the Museum of Natural History right here on the campus. Visitors on the campus frequent these places a great deal, and every Sunday scores of people come on to enjoy these art and history on their tour. But one rarely catches a student there. So we must assume that the general student interest in travel abroad certainly isn't centered around the artistic and cultural opportunities. Nevertheless they all go if they can; from the saxophone "moan artist" to the lowly piccolo player, and who can't carry a tune carry the water to the cattle. And it's a safe bet that they pass up the real European cultural opportunities, just as they ignore them right here at the academy. Campus Opinion Editor Daily Kansan The statement of Kenneth Meuer Tuesday asserting that he would give students the opportunity to conceive student回答 of law cases are brought to the attention of the Men's Student Council only when they agree with the school by good intentions toward the University and its students, but it has a good chance to defeat its own end. Campus Opinion The statement is that the council should take the oath of allegiance, dissolving the University board, and that it would be a violation of "code of honor" for it to turn over to authorities the oath. --fo. spring up Watteau, Halos, Bakus and Toyos that fairly shout "EASTER" to eat OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Vol. XXVII Thursday, March 12, 1931 No. 129 An important meeting of the Aero club will be held this evening at 7:30 o'clock in room 116, Marvin hall.

BOOK EXCHANGE: Those who have left books at the book exchange this year to be kind lends call for them on Friday from 1 to 2 o'clock and Monday to 2 o'clock MAINNING The council is only concerned with one side of the student disciplinary system, and not with guard to the liquor situation. It concerns itself with those who have imbalanced attitudes when having done so. It has not authority over bootleggers who they hageup in. Any number of resolutions and threats will not prevent students from drinking as long as liquor is obtainable. The university's alcohol policy is likely to solve the campus liquor problem as long as there are bootleggers within driving distance of the University, or where liquor is available, there will be occasions when students get involved with the law, and the University will receive plenty of publicity, such as occurred recently. Since the county awesely is interested only in learning the sources of lifelong offenders, and has no intention of punishing the students after the council has dealt with them, it seems that the case is very slight. In this slight protection of the individual students—a practice not encouraged by the council is protecting the bootleggers, against whom a sinister state or misdeed agency should direct its efforts. It may be rightfully questioned whether an aggressive county enforcement officer is in the best position to which students could give to find local sources of liquor supply, but at least the council would do its share and be in good place in any accusations section.
