SUNDAY, MARCH 23, 1930 TENNIS COURTS Doctor Allen has announced that the tennis courts should be lined and netted by those who wish to play on them. The reason given is that the athletic department must cut expenses and that the nonproductive sports must be curtailed. Is not this a withdrawal from the policy of sports for everybody! The football squad, numbering perhaps 50 men, has four coaches beside the trainer and various subordinates. Freshmen and varsity basketball, baseball, and track teams also have training facilities to do varie swimming and wrestling, though, of course, several of the coaches repeat their jobs. But probably 80 per cent of the students play tennis; and in this sport there is no paid coach or well-kept equipment. Kansas has poor courts, Tennis, swimming and golf are the only sports that students play very generally after graduation. The University needs more and—may somebody help—better tennis courts. Eight per cent of the students surely deserve attention. THAT CUTE CHILD The weather for the past few days would lead one to think that winter is departing rather than that spring is coming. A cute child content is being opened in Kansas City. This should prove either very helpful or very detrimental to the mothers who have been wanting for some time to make it obvious to Mrs. Jones, that her Anne is so much cuter than Betty Jones. It will also give Betty a chance to tell everybody how cure she is; and if they don't respond properly, she will promptly tell them about the context. In fact, it will give quite a few people something to talk about—including those who "lust can't see little Smith but get first." It will, too, give some adoring parents a valid excuse for invishing just that much more attention on their one and only. We realize that we were brats once ourselves, and our parents probably entered us in some such contest. But we are old enough now to know better! So many of our ideals are being snatched now! And the unkindest cut of all is that the Nebraska debaters have destroyed our faith in Danderie and kidney pills. EIGHT MILLION STARVE EIGHT MILLION STARVE With eight million peasants starving in South China, and with millions of亿里外的灾情,of tremendous magnitude great enough to make a farm crisis in the United States, it does not take much reasoing. to ask why the wheat isn't sent to China. The Farm Board has rejected the proposal on the grounds that it is not a charitable organization and money has come from somewhere. There is also the question of trans- portation. Who can carry the wheat to China? Or of still more import one, who can carry the wheat after it is docked in Asiatic ports? Eight million people are more likely to dwell in the state of Mozambique. South Africa, Alabama. Something should be done somewhere, somehow, and immediately. The Thoughtful Freshman says he is surely gud that all the signs have been put up in front of the buildings for a few days because he can see if he has really learned all their names. LET'S TAKE HEED Students will not be allowed to drive cars on the Hill if the present reckless driving and speeding continues. Greater restriction of driving is the easiest solution and the most effective, and there is reason to believe that action of such nature will be taken here as it has been taken in other schools. Orest Drive is for the students and faculty of the University. It was never built to be a channel of traffic, but could help anyone hesitate to stop speeders? The present registration law for parking has been a good thing and has limited the number of cars on the Hill. But why wouldn't it be a good thing to revoke the parking licenses of those who break the campus speed laws? If their parking rights were taken away they would have no cars to drive through the throngs of pedestrians between classes. A check shows that the majority of those passing on the campus have KU, parking licenses. Is the parking license a license to drive at any speed, regardless of the rights of others? Something should be done to relieve the monstery in Watson Library. With only books to amuse a person before they get to some comes, things are pretty harrowing. SO BORESOME And then, after that party come, it gets pretty beseech with nothing to do but talk and be disturbed by some bookworm who sits across the table and looks up with an unpleasant expression from time to time. GL course, it is getting go to the time of the year when one can take a break from being away from such distracting influences, but what about those lessons that demand a certain amount of time spent in the library? And what about those people who continually yawn? Nothing disturbs a pleasant little chat more than to see someone at the other end of the table yawn just at the time that certain zombs at your wire cracks you 'el'. Something should and must be done POLLY TICKS AGAIN Now that the women on the Hill have had their annual fling at politics—with more or less dubious success—it is about time for the men's political pot to start boiling. In anticipation of this prodigiously important development, there is rippling over the campus a mild wave of curiosity as to what political alignments will dispute the elections. Will the Pacachamacs ride once more, triumphantly and unposed, through the field? Will the Black Mask be denounced by its apparently vanished constituents? Or will some independent party produce a dark horse to make the race an interesting one? According to the present outlook, the Pacachamacs have a clear field. In fact, we are almost ready to predict a repetition of the last election. But that prospect brings up the question: Why have a party system of student government? If one party is to control campus politics, why not do away with it entirely and let individual students vote for whomever they wish? So "pore old Kanus" is the only state that is voting dry in the Literary Digest poll! The shade of Carrie Nation still carries on. The Pope is going to take a day to pray for the Russians and the Russians are going to take a day in order to refute the prayers. What we wonder in why they are so bothered about the Pope's prayers when they do not believe in religion.
