FORUMS
Students who are interested in discussions of present day subjects of especial interest to young people appreciate the work of the University Y.M.C.A., Y.W.C.A. organizations in arranging for their series of eight forums. The first of the series was last held week, the other seven will be given in the future. The organizations have been fortunate enough to secure Norman Thomas as one of the speakers to appear on one of the programs, as well as several other well-known figures.
These forums afford an opportunity for thinking students to bear talks or vital subjects. A college education is not all obtained in text books or popu lar moving pictures. For this reason, if for no other, students should avail themselves of this opportunity to broaden themselves by attending the forums.
With finals approaching there are many things to worry us more than W. K. Henderson's difference with Senator Dill and the federal radio commission. W. K. has such a characteristic manner of speaking that he may be easily recognized and be tuned out for musical programs, so KWKH is the least of our troubles.
CO-OPERATIVES WRANGLE
"What did I tell you?" is probably the jib of the farm relief opposition as they watch the various co-operative organizations "buck and sunfish" before coming under the bridle of the Federal farm board in its organization of the wheat area.
So in the process of working out the machinery, the farm board must first of all ameliorate the differences of a number of small farm organizations, get them all working together to collect the farm products so that no duplicating storage will occur, and then centralize the selling and distributing end.
Chairman Legge of the board says that there will be no coercive measures taken to bring the separate organizations together, and that if they choose to remain "out of the fold" the board will discriminate only in that it will not loan funds for duplicating storage.
Agreeing on this, the board will function in carrying on until overlapping systems are eliminated. Then, the organization is to tighten up as has happened in the Pacific northwest where the organizations have functioned exceptionally well. The farmers and the organizations have cried to big business and congress for "new furniture" for their house—now it is time for them to go back and sweep up the habitation before the van arrives.
THE LEAGUE AT LONDON
France is well prepared for the naval conference to be held in London this month. She has specifically stated her stand and her intentions. First, she says, "the agreements at the London conference are to be within and subservient to the framework of the League of Nations" general disarmament plans."
France feels that she must remain
tul to her pledged work induction of armaments . Article VIII of the covenant. though the United States has continually side-stepped the League, it seems that she will have to face it at her own conference in London Ambassador Edge, at Paris, is working determinately with preliminary arrangements with the French Ministers. He believes that success will result in the London conference and that France will be included in the agreements made. At least it is advantageous to the United States and England to know the French stand beforehand. Now all powers can be prepared to attempt to meet the French demands. Under these conditions success should be superset if the delegates met optimistically not knowing that the League is to be at London too.
Kansas City motorists have discovered that a lighted candle sitting just behind the windshield keeps ice and sheet from obscuring the driver's vision. But those who advocate this remedy obviously never have tried keeping a candle burning in a collegiate Ford.
SHOULD HE BE PAID?
Shortly after the close of the football season, a southern sports fan naked the country, "Well, why not pay the college athlete?" in defiance to the earlier release of the Carnegie report on American college athletes. He found that he had other supporting opinions over the country when the press reported his suggestion. The words of that report itself afford the best answer to the question.
The summary of the Carnegie foundation report in a chapter concerning recruiting and subsidizing, says "There is no valid reason why even the most worthy athlete should receive consideration, favor, assistance, or attention that is not available, upon the same terms and with the same readiness, to the general body of undergraduates. Nor is it easy to see how the sincere amateur could expect such special consideration or advantage."
To continue and substantiate this viewpoint, the Foundation says concerning the values in American college athletics, "The prime needs of our college athletes are two—the first is a change of values in a field sodden with the commercial and the material and the vested interests that these forces have created. Commercialism in college athletics must be diminished and the college sport must rise to a point where it is esteemed primarily and sincerely for the opportunities it affords to mature youth under responsibility, to exercise at once the body and the mind, and to foster habits both of bodily health and those high qualities of character which, until they are revealed in action, we accept on "ith."
The second need, it continues, is that "The American college must renew within itself the force that will challenge the best intellectual capabilities of the undergraduate. Happily, this task is now engaging the attention of numerous college officers and teachers. Better still, the fact is becoming recognized that the granting of opportunity for the fulfillment of intellectual promise need not impair the socializing qualities of college sport. It is not necessary to 'include athletes in the curriculum' of the undergraduate or to legislate out of them their life and spirit in order to extract what educational values they promise in terms of courage, independent thinking, co-operation, initiative, habits of bodily activity, and above all, honesty in dealings between man and man. Whichever conception of the function of the American college, intellectual or socializing agency, be adopted, let only the chosen ideal be followed with sincerity and clear vision, and in the same course of years our college sport will largely take care of itself."
One of the new features of the extension division of the University of Indiana is the offering of a series of 12 correspondence courses for adults. These courses are much for the regular college students as for mature students who have a background in school subjects, and who wish information and guidance in the study.
Faculty members are requested to send the list of their publications for the year 1929 to the Graduate office at their earliest possible convenience. It is planned to send the bibliography to the printer at an early date.

Like Sherman "Finale are-er-awful," Said the campus belle.
Final
A put a chemistry book at my feet,
A typwriter at my head,
A bunch of roses in my hand,
And ask anyone who's dead.
The Great Test
We have written verses,
We have been tested,
We have no reverence
Keep us from being grades.
'Twas snowing, and the gyrate sleet
The wind was brisk
The ice was sick.
Some took the risk,
And hit the brick.

Did mume in the paddy air?
All kelpop whirtled Fourteenth street
To goloes sunken there.
"O Sole Moi!" sang the braggart Who hathed at seven a. m.
"Beware the habitub hero, ye,
Who hear him bonnyly defying
The tick, the tick."
"O death!" he'll sing—as, wan at haggard.
The end must come though hills are steep
At nine he threatens mayhem.
He took his brief-case closer to him
His fist he clenched, his teeth he gnashed.
And yet the wind it whistled through him.
Again 't was snowing, and the slee
did muffle in the paddy air,
And all who still climbed Fourteent!
To a Professor Who Grades on the Curve
Of course there's one of us has to flunk.
It's not the study—it's all in the
huck.
Again't in snowing, and the sheet
did muffle, in the candle, air
And all who still climbed Fourteenth street,
So why should I trouble and bother my head,
Sang naught but this: "Beware!"
Which of us here can please the Fates.
Master my theorems or learn my dates?
It may be the one who studies And it may be those who shirk.
At The Concert
by John W. Shively
For the first time in several years, the orchestra did not go to奏鸣形 Orchestra did not go to奏鸣形 Orchestra did not go to奏鸣形 Orchestra did not go to奏鸣形 Orchestra did not go to奏呜
The concert was better than those of a few years ago when outside talent was imported to make up a complete orchestration.
The program was not a finished professional performance by any one, but rather the result of a slower than we would expect to hear professional musicians play them. We were forced to secure Karl Kustersteiner for Karl Kustersteiner, the director, for keeping within the limit of 20 minutes.
Familiar numbers were presented, but they were the best of the more complex numbers, and more of the new in the "Symphony from the New World" by Dvornik than any other number. The "large" is the most common in seated board we used. We liked the popular "large," the least, principally because the obes, although taking their weight, are the finished shaded which we expect in this number. The "Scherzo" was the brightest of all the symphony. A single chorus of the "Scherzo" is shown in the "Allergo con Foose."

Campus Opinion
"The Prelude in C Sharp Minor," by Rachmaninoff, was well developed from a quiet beginning to grandeur, and then back to a simple close. Mr. Rachmaninoff's judgment in permitting the piano to have the last few chords was good.
I was much surprised, upon returning to the campus after this Christ- tening weekend, that I had reached to my home town some four hundred miles away was not true. The rumor was that the date rule had been suspended for
Editor Daily Kansan:
The "Nutracker" suite was noted for its dainty playfulness. It was unfortunate that, despite its Overture, a march and several elver dance numbers, the "Waltz of the Waltz"
I am a woman student and I believe that the women of the University, though some people say that it is impossible, should be taught self-responsibility, at least to the extent they are going out on dates and when not to.
In classrooms every day we are told to think for ourselves, not to lose our personality by being submerged in the details of life. To navigate the cline and in every way required to make decisions for ourselves—yet not always at first sight—we must be guarded like children.
Miss Merrihan Moore also presented well-known selections. The selection from "Madame Butterfly" was given with appropriate enthusiasm. The good orchestra oocomplement Moore's excellent work, which was as it should be. The "Kiss Waltz" was sprightly.
What difference it makes whether a student dances in Topeka or Lawrence seems of little importance to a dance instructor, one will deny that the pavement from here to Topeka is much nicer for a joy ride than the bumpy pavement in Kansas.
WHY WAIT in Line?
No doubt there would be a few persons not capable of self-discipline, but usually such persons would be known to the authorities regardless of how much they were not. The problem would be greater the first year than at any other time and it seems to me that each succeeding student must have lived and life around the campus would become more natural and wholesome.
It is a certainty that no one can know what results might be obtained by teaching students to present the student thinks nothing of breaking a law. She (with his help) thinks it is funny to do so. I cannot be convinced that freedom would not break in regard to the date rule.

East Ad Entrance Equals Fraser Steps for 'Slides'
As high as the fatality toll is on the west steps of Fraser, another precarious place on the Hill is catching up with its list of calamities. The same wary air of caution that is assumed as a student comes down the famous steps is again taken on as he enters the east door of "Ad". This scene now draws a larger audience of blood-thirsty men and women than do the Fraser steps, partly because it is protected from the north wind, but mostly because a slide on the wall much fancier than a fall down steps.
