TUESDAY, MARCH 10, 1931 HEROISM IN THE NORTH The airplane has a distinct role in the northern sagak, as is evidenced by the successful Right of Pilot Joe Crosson, who carried supplies and antitoxin Sunday to the diphtheria-ravaged community of Point Barrow, Alaska. The flight was accomplished following the pilate's battle with a blizzard and his precarious flight over mountainains. Crosson was five hours and twenty minutes at the controls of his machine; had his courage been unavailing it would have taken a dog team two months to traverse the 450-mile trip. A forced landing would have meant a paralyzing death from cold; success has mount the comfort and saving of a possible score of lives in the Point Barrrow village, the northernmost white settlement in Alaska. History often has a regrettable measure of overlooking such acts of heroism; the story of the air is already crowned with individual heremism. But Crosson will not be forgotten soon by the stricken whom he has said. Sigmund Freud once said life was a battle between the ego and the libido, but Rudy Vallee, after recent experiments, has decided life is a battle between the egg and the grapefruit. DEPRESSION CURES Economic foreseen as exemplified by the business heads of the Sherman Corporation is evident in their published prescriptions for the cure of the current depression. Saying that the "present blight is not sharp black and white, but full of lights and shades," they profoundly advance such deeply curative measures as "more liberal buying" "lessening of competition by mergers," "stimulation of public works" "intensified management," "lower retail prices," "development of new products," and that most ancient of standys "more advertising." Moreover those analytical business men feel that "there is grave management in the government," and that "tariff should be divorced from politics entirely." A rotund sincerity bulges from their article; it is as if they had, through some miraculous oajn board, discovered that a façially sick country must have some alliances and they have ingeniously exposed those alliances, and being constructive-minded, offered solutions in their stead. But somewhere all their cures have appeared before, perhaps centuries ago when Caesar discovered that Roma had a shortage of togas and consulted his lieutenants on the cause of such a depression. About the most essential facts that have been bleached from the whole depression are the host of explanations and remedies that pour out daily on the reading public. There is never apparently, a depression in explanation. Freling Foster lists the most profitable businesses in the United States today as banking, insurance, real estate, stock and bond brokerage and the manufacturing of chemicals. Mr. Foster must have cultured his statistics after Al Capone was jailed, and the racketeering game lost its leader. Some people are content to depend on the Zodiac for their fortunes, while others employ a means known as diligence.

A young woman at the University of Nebraska has recently declined the honor of election to Mortor Board, national honoring society for senior women. Another young woman at a mid-western university refused to accept the nomination of honorary college of the R. O. T. C. She termed it cheap publicity. And it is not only the ladies. A few years ago a young man refused election to Phi Beta Kappa here at Kansas because he did not believe the organization justified its existence. They tell us the price of eggs is going up—more hens are now being set; Tarsan is going to blossom out in a full page of colors in next Sunday's funny paper; mid-semesters are slowly and surely approaching. "To be or not to be" may be the question with some people, but it never bothers a "has-been." Of what is this indicative, if anything? Some will say that it is merely a publicity stunt; for near sighted people will be incapable of understanding the fact that others may have convictions strong enough to lead them to refuse these ordinarily coveted honors. Perhaps on the other hand it may be that the society for campus leaders, for the intelligentist, and even the popularity contests, that great American institution, have come under the thoughtful scrutiny of college men and women. ANYTHING Senator Thomas of Oklahoma is wearing high water overalls of and vintage; Will Rogers is telling of the horrors of ginger and pleading for good old "corn"; and we on this great campus of the University of Kansas are Campus Opinion Editor Daily Kansan: As an interested observer at the meeting of the non-fraternity organization, I was invited to membership in that group. I wish to myself concerning the "Article" written by me. --three groups presented by Miss Pessley was the English group, which included "How's My Boy," by Sidney Moore and "The Hills of Arasoey" by Coombs, and the delightful lyric ballet, "How Do I Love Thee" by Harriet Warre. The songs were exceptionally well chosen for their beauty, and she won much applause from the audience. "How's My Boy" seemed to be the favorite, and it was sung again for an That article discusses the fact that certain qualifications for membership can be put up the statement any more than to leave the impression that it would be. I am interested in the statement that certain qualifications are necessary. This procedure will eliminate those ally-inclusive organizations. These qualifications will serve only to protect the organization in its effort to further the interests of all the non-fraternity men. This is a need for this meeting, those men in accord with the non-fraternity case are eligible for membership. This will promote harmony among groups and enable it to function more successfully in behalf of non-fraternity men. Recognition on the campus, a fair share of University activities and a sense of camaraderie among staff should be the aim of every non-fraternity man on the Hill. At the Recital Irene Beadby, mezza soprano, and G. Cris Smith piano, pianist, combined their arts last night, and presented an excellent faculty recital before an audience which almost filled the Administration Auditorium. The crowd appreciative one, and both the artists responded greedily with encores. By Lela Harknev Miss Peasebody, who has a lovely mezzo soprano voice, was the first to appear, and her first group was commissioned. Her voice was especially rich and full in her lower tones, and she at all times exhibited an easy interpretation of her own material. Her body was a German one, all three of the compositions being the work of Brahms. These three were delightfully beautiful and so captivating singing produced. Miss Peasebody never forces her voice, which is very commendable in a singer. There is no doubt as to her ability to sing beautifully, poise and expression are testimony enough. The piano numbers played by Griss Simpson were as delightful as were the vocal numbers. Mr. Simpson was a classmate of his, simply playing for his own amusement, totally oblative to the presence of any audience, and the effect won charmingly. He became perhaps a little monotonous, but this was no doubt due to the fact that he often did not contain a great deal of contract. In his second group, Mr. Simpson atoned for any similarity of playing by the same group, by time, by Ravel. The runs in this number were well executed, and the tomes were highly entertaining." His "Clair de Lune" which followed was also a favorite, and deserved much favorable comment. Mr. Simpson interprets excellently, and seems to understand the situation well intended meaning. Chopin's "Serenza In B Flat Minor" was so beautifully designed that the audience would not let the art play until he had responded to the artist go into he mad caprice." *Valse Caprice* by Carl Scott. By far the most charming of the Miss Peabody was accompanied by Prof. Roy Underwood. Announcements Le Corlec Francais will meet tomorrow at 4:00 in room 306. Frena hail the meeting.
