McConnell is a man with whom religion itself has a very immediate relationship with life. He believes in man and believes in working for men. Bishop McConnell is an educator. He was president of DePauw University for four years. He was not of the emotional popular type, but he was so completely trusted by students that they flocked to hear him; and even those he disciplined had entire confidence in his sincerity and justice. He has played an important key part in international relations; for in the Orient and in Mexico he has paved greater international understanding. McCormell is our speaker for religion week. Though he speaks on religion he does not ask others to accept any religious theory which he has not proved for himself in social relationships and in individual experiences. He is a churchman. Throughout his years as a bishop of the Methodist Church he has had a liberalizing influence on the church and on the general public. His conduct embodies broad political and social views on the times. OVER-WORKED The Sophisticated Sophomore says that space for storing books in fraternity houses has all been taken, therefore the only course left is to abolish hell week. The Senate is threatened with night sessions because of the fight on prohibition and the turf. Talk seems to be the big thing with many of the senators. A measure may have two sides and many points on both sides, but when these points have brought out, there should be some means of curtailing needless debate. All questions are discussed in committee meetings and the points brought out there are so solid amplified on the floor of the House or Senate. These talks are for the people over the country and the press. Practically all congressmen have their opinions of bills long before the bills come before the house. Why then should a few men take so much time without saying anything? It is true that these debates bring national questions before the people forcefully, but is it necessary to have a clown show to attract people to things which vitally concern them? Why not allow each side to do all the talking it wants to do someplace, say over the radio, and limit talking on the floor to vital points? Such a course would allow more people to hear and know what is going on and speed up legislation. If such a course were adopted night sessions would never be. Christians call minister—headline. The question "What??" caused us to read the story. THE MEN ARE ABSENT THE MEN ARE THEMED On this Hill attending classes every day, supposedly, there are at least 2,000 men, yet the dramatics department finds itself handicapped if it tries to produce a play that requires a large number of male characters. Several times this year the department has chosen plays and tried to work them out, only to find enough men actors conspicuously lacking. To produce a play is not easy, but to pick a play and discover that it cannot be produced is discouraging. It is a well-known fact that few men are interested in university dramatics, but they seem to be fewer in this school than in most places. What is the reason? A number of men are in both athletics and musical activities. They, of course, could not give the time to dramatic work, even though qualified. But these men do not include all. There are many more who might have talent but surely realize it, and it is these men who must make it possible for the Hill to have good amateur plays. If a man can really act the department would doubtless welcome him. It does not seem possible that out of 2,000 men 10 or 29 cannot be found who can act under able leadership, and they are needed in one of the fundamental interests of the campus. Exchanged: a Knox derby by Woolf Bros, for an Ober's derby at the Almani Chi formal—Kainan want al. Which goes to prove that things are pretty much as they have always been. TAKING WAYS There are thieves in the University of Kansas. No, that is too harsh a term for people with only "taking ways," for they are not stealing so much as they are inconveniencing their fellow students. Recently, it has been found that it is almost impossible to keep the tables in the Memorial Union supplied with either card decks or chess. These games just disappear, and they have disappeared until there are four sets of chest and 40 or 50 cards of cards missing. The money value of these games is not high and can hardly be counted, but they are of social value. The persons who walk off with such little articles are certainly not considering the comforts of the building's occupants. On varivily night many women leave their wraps in the rest room, yet the wraps are not disturbed and they are of much greater value than cards or chess. Surely, students who are old enough to be in college can realize the difference between right and wrong, and it does seem as if they could take a little responsibility. But the hostess cannot rely on them. She must leave only old card decks lying on the tables, and if the players desire new cards or chess they must check them out from the desk. Some students have such taking ways. WED. THUR. FRI. "Let's Go Places" A whirl around Hollywood, Studios, Cafes and Premieres with the Stars A peek at the Parties and Hollywood Revely Shows 3-7-9 COURTESY WEEK "Courtesy week" is the name of plain hell week in some sorority circles. Yet even then many of the activities, though harmless, are foolish. At last, however, fraternities, who are the worst offenders in indulgences of hell week, seem to realize that the thing as a whole is a waste of time and should be restricted if not abolished. No matter how good a sport one is, he willresent some of the treatment which he receives—not so much because it injures him physically as because it fatigues him mentally. And if the victim is in that condition he loses just as many days from school as if he were absent in body. The fraternities will be doing an act of kindness, not only to themselves but to the reputation of college youth, if they can settl the hell week question. It needs to be regulated in some manner, and if one day it is not enough to prepare in person a full course of education it can be completely abolished. Probably the restriction would dispel the belief in some parents' minds that college students go to college only for the fun there is in it. The two men in whom Americans take the greatest interest are probably Herbert Hower and Henry Ford. We notice what they do and quote what they say; to us they exemplify success—success in public survival. For that is the way we measure success. John R. Dyer, former dean of men here, says that at Poratello he has no Dove, no Sour Owl, and no Hobo day to tax his good nature. Think of the soft time he must be having. So it is with special interest that we notice their latest activities. Both men recently became interested in schools. Ford has decided to spend $100,000,000 giving technical instruction to students, in schools of his own establishment. In running this main school he asks not help or advice from anyone, but his plans have received a great deal of publicity. Comments have been heard on all sides as to the probable success of such a school. The average American thinks that anyone as rich as Ford can do anything—even run a school if he so chooses. Assuredly Ford has done the type of thing that Europeans would call typically American. While on a fishing trip in some TWO NEW SCHOOLS While on a fishing trip in some southern hills Hoover discovered a 50c Attention STATIONERY TWO BOOK STORES Crested With Fraternity, Sorority or University Seal Do you think you could eat for a year at an average of 26c a meal? 172.000 meals were served last year at this average at the New Cafeteria in Your Union Building community living in dense ignorance. He had a school built for them, a school that was modest in every detail. He employed the best skill at his command to work on this building. Mrs. Hoover and the president spent hours working out details for the betterment of this enterprise that was to benefit that backwoods community. The President was reluctant to talk about the school to inquiring friends or repeterents; consequently, not much has been board of this, but to those who have, it is just one other example of Hoover's quickness to see a need and satisfy it. Campus Opinion We admire both men—but when it comes to establishing schools we prefer the Hoover method. periment. He has a theory and he wants to test it. The other man starts a school because he sees a need for it, and he satisfies this need to the best of his ability and the ability of the workman. A Pledge's View Excerpts: Daily Kundan: Earlier, Daily Kundan question arises "should bell-weil be abolished?" It is evident that some fraternities have already abolished it. The question is whether it should be erated it as to cause little distraction from the daily routine of a fraternity, or not. It can be test the pledge in a house for his strong qualities, to see whether he is capable of being a good sport and has the loyalty toward the group initiating him. Just as in a football game, he is going to suffer but feeling that he is to strengthen his own better qualities by fighting for the group initiating him. He has been limited in territory to the fraternity houses alone, there is no room for him at any other time. The danger is eliminated, there is no longer interference with the student's work, no conflict or aggression, let the fraternities teach their pledges this little informal lesson of loyalty by putting them through the physical test?
