We crowd cheered and cheered as first one team and then other forged ahead. Students knew our team was crippled with two men on the bench and apparently felt that cheering would win. Anyway, we won and many horse voices are on the Hill today. But what about the Jay James and the Ku Kau? They are the official cheering organizations of the University. They are supposed to be the first line of cheering offense for the cheerleader. Where were they last night? Each organization has a uniform to wear of all athletic games and generally sits together. Last night there were several in uniform sitting on the stages but not together. Maybe the other members were there not in uniform. It seems that the Ku Kus and the Jay James, of all organizations on the Hill, would do the thing for which they are organized. Or is it that, after all, the organizations exist only to give the members an activity, something that they can put under their name in the Jayhawker and command attention with in the home town paper? The "K*T" men eat together last night, as they do at every game, and cheered. We should only expect them to do so, but, even so, we praise them for their lung support. More color would be added if each man would wear his athletic sweater, but those who did not wear sweaters joined in the cheering hustle. On the other hand the pop organizations are to be pitted. If last night's game were the only one at which they failed to do anything the incident could be overlooked, but so far this year they have done practically nothing. If brevity is the soul of wit what an example of uprearous humor will be the history of the world written in 500 words by Coolidge. TARIFF AGAIN At a breakfast conference President Hoover asked the Republican congressional leaders to speed up the tariff bill for the sake of business stability. The leaders replied quite meekly that they were sorry, but really couldn't do a thing about it. They hope that it will be settled in about two or three weeks, but they aren't making any promises. We wonder just what this attitude on the part of the congressmen means. Is congress purposely opposing the President, or has the tariff bill dragged for such a long time that the congressmen have become bored with it and don't care whether it ever gets settled or not? Whatever is the attitude, it seems that the men picked by the people as representatives should be public-spirited enough to get the problem settled and not cause any business uncertainty among the people who selected them. "Fewer Accidents in the Air" — headline. There ought to be since there are more ways to dodge than on the highway. RELIGIOUS WEEK BEGINS RELIGIOUS WEEK BEGINNING Today religious week begins with a banquet at the Union building at 6 p. m. To the average student on the Hill this meeting will satisfy a vague curiosity that has been growing on him as to the personality of Bishop McConnell. Much has been said about this man, and in the process of saying it, those who have been inclined to view religious week cynically have come to have, instead, a deep curiosity regarding him. This opening meeting may satisfy a superficial curiosity, but if it satisfies the listener completely then the meeting will be very likely that for which it was planned. This first meeting will arouse a interest that will find outlet in attendance at the other McConnell meetings. There are going to be four meetings in all open to everybody. These meetings are the banquet, with a talk following, convoitation, a meeting Thursday afternoon and a final meeting Friday night. Every member of the University should attend these four meetings, Religious authorities such as Bishop Athenorel will offer on the campus, but when they are, often activities should be put aside and all attention be centered on clear thinking along lines of religion. It's a sure sign of spring when you see *students* up town in their shirt sleeves. Now who is right, for it is also true that the groundhog saw his shadow. CHILDISH INTELLIGENCE Out of the mouths of babies does not come always wisdom. Equally true is it that the actions of those of children do then lacking in reason and mentality. On the "Quiet" sign in the library someone, whose mental age obviously was far below his chronological age has scribbled, "By order of the County Commissioners". This addition is not only far from clever but is a positive detraction from the appearance of the sign. This type of silly intelligence designs in defying signs in public places. It is this type that has left samples of handwriting in the Yellowstone Park, in the Grand Canyon, and on public monuments. It can not be that he is proud of his handwriting for it is usually no better than a scribble. It is simply that mentally he is too undeveloped to know that after the age of ten one does not deface public property with remarks of any sort. The lilac bush has been placed in the rotunda of the Administration building again. To some this is a harbinger of spring, to others just something else to walk around. Time was when the actions of one man were the business of no other man than himself. Each man did as he pleased and lived as he pleased. CHANGES From communities came larger organizations and there were many countries living out their own political and economic affairs. These countries were independent of each—indeed they never dreamed that the actions of one of them could affect the actions of any other country. he pleased and lived as he pleased. Then population increased, community spirit developed, and man did what was the pleasure of the community since it was no longer possible to consider himself alone. Later communities found that they were not unaffected by other communities no provisions for trade and communication were made for the good of all. And now—how very far we have come! The French prime minister resigns, France is without a government. What is that to the rest of us? The entire world awaits new appointments; in London the international conference cannot go on until France is represented there again. Foreign students have a universality of learning and an ability of mind and wit that makes them superior to American college men, according to Prof. A. B. Myrick, of the University of Vermont. This was due, he asserts, to a severe process of selection in foreign universities. Bishop Francis J. McConnell will speak at an all-University conventa at 10 a.m. clock Thursday morning in the University auditorium.

For example, a business housecan typewrite a message over telephone wires, and this is retyped instantaneously and simultaneously in any number of branch offices. The advantage is obvious — in knitting together far-flung organizations and in quickening the pace of business. Here is still another extension of telephone service which has already proved its value. The telephone typewriter promises even greater things as industry discovers new uses for this instrument of convenient communication.
