OUR HERITAGE-THE ALUMNI FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1929 The famous 20-20 "victory" over Nebraska and Stony Walf's kick in the last minute of the Missouri game of some years ago stand out as bright examples in the archives of athletic history, to which alumni point. Citing with pride championship teams and outstanding athletes, Old Grad clamor for winning teams. Seemingly gone is their undergraduate pride in Phi Beta Kappa, honor students, and ability to pass a freeman rhetoric examination, and with these, the memory of burning mid-night oil clubs, societies, and friendships apparently have vanished. In an age when young men and women are willing, even eager, to work from four to eight hours a day, and carry full time school work, to secure a college education, thinking students are wondering what interests their predecessors had. And in order that the younger generation may go far ncty by following in the footsteps of those who have gone before, it might be well if some of the zenolus clamorings were turned towards securing better wages for the teachers, and more scholarships for those students who must work, so that scholastic standards may be raised. We were just wondering if the new front-wheel drive will guarantee front seat driving. THOUGHTS Surely is a nice snappy morning, Makes you feel good coming to an 8:30. Great to be in school a day like this, Don't mind studying a bit, Campus books deserted. Must all be inside. What's that in front Ad? That sign "Best Nebraska." O sure! Kette to send Mac's band to Lincoln. Last night's Kansen carried a story on it. Wonder what back they're having? Good thing. I'll give my quarter—it won't be much. Fungy thing though, you aren't called on much for donations here. Some schools ask for money for band, for football team, for equipment, and for charity every year. Good system here, most all included in fees. You don't miss it as much that way. Darn good plan, darn good school. Here's my quarter. Hope it helps out—team deserves support. They fight hard. Band deserves trip too; not much in it for all they do. Wish I could go to Nebraska. Well can't —Oklahoma maybe. Gonna be a good game. Great Scott! Late for that at 8:30 again. Probably be called down. Sgrn is a fine morning. I did not know that the University had a Salvation army band, too, says the Thoughtful Freshman. And they even trust you to make your own change. HE GOT SLAPPED When Hannen Swaffer, prominent British dramatic critic, likened the voice of Lillian Foster, American actress now performing in London, to that of a ventilator's dog, Miss Foster accounted Mr. Swaffer, saying, "I am going to repay the American woman's way the compliments you paid me." Thereon she brought her hand into swift contact with his face, or in other words, "he got shapped." The incident probably would not have amounted to much except that the luncheon room of the hotel Savvy was the scene of the encounter. Is it any wonder that England and Europe in general is wondering what American women are going to do next? Is it any wonder the hachelor 'masks' in America are fast recruiting new legions? But on the other hand, is Miss Foster typical of American women? Shapping, we know, is the great feminine parlor game, but when it is brought into international usage, we wonder if the League of Nations or some other oatmeal body ought to seat feminine delegates. Imagine the furor that a pretty delegate could cause by indiscriminate shaping. Helen of Troy started a war, not in the same manner, to be sure, but methods improve with time! REED AND RATES "In the regulation of public utility rates an ounce of competition is worth a pound of commission regulation." These words were used by Governor Reed speaking before the League of Kansas Municipalities at its recent meeting at Arkansas City. They probably sum up the views of the governor well enough. But are his views justified? It is true that where there is competition in public utility rates, as well as any place else, prices will be lower than where one company has monopoly rights. These rates, created by competition, however, will not and cannot be the lowest possible. If several companies are doing the same thing in one city, much work will be duplicated. The users of the service, the city in the case of public utilities, will have to pay the price in the long run. How can the governor of Kansas or any other person show that duplication of work is cheaper than supervision of work done by a single body? THE KEY TO CONFERENCE THE KEY TO CONFERENCE The Institute of Pacific Relations opened its third biennial conference at Kyoto, Japan, Oct. 28. Representatives from all countries having interests bordering on the Pacific, as well as representatives of the League of Nations and the Hague Tribunal, are meeting often behind closed doors, to discuss and study questions of the Orient which have a bearing on the rest of the world. No rules will be formulated, nor will requests be sent to any government that laws of a certain nature be drafted. Those present are emphatic in their statements that the purpose of the conference is merely to study and exchange views. The conference is not political in nature. It will only study political policies as far as they regulate industrial and commercial activities and have a bearing on the social life of the Orientalis. The results can be made world-wide in influence, if a better understanding between nations is reached. The possibilities of the conference are unlimited. If all delegates can rise above race prejudice, individual animosity and biased feelings, under the guise of patriotism, the conference can bring about relations as far reaching as any conference ever held. To help men pass the time of dull Sundays and vacant evenings, students of a certain Minnesota college founded a Ping-Pong club. If Minnesota students went to the University of Kansas they wouldn't have time even to think of time. TODAY — BRYANT WASHIIRON in a happy drama drama entitled "SKINNER'S BIG IDEA."

Course in History of Medicine at Johns Hopkins Would Give Doctors Culture Baltimore, — The first duty of the newly founded Department of the History of Medicine of Johns Hopkins University here will be to investigate the early medical history of our own continent, if the advice given at the universities by Prof. Karl Stushoff of the University of Leipzig is followed. (Nelson Messlen) jean medicine, both ancient and modern, is an especially appropriate field of study. It is one department, but this department's field is really world wide. Prof. Sauthoff defends the field. Professor Saddoff is the greatest medical historian of our age, possibly of any age, and the high esteem in which he is held by Dr. William H. Welch, who will direct the new department, makes it likely that his advice will be followed. The study of early American medicine will go back to the Incas, Mayans, Aztecs, whose ruined cities are now being investigated by archaeologists. "A physician who knows only medicine, does not even know medicines," quoted explaining that without his knowledge, the physician impaces into a mechanic. He also emphasized that an importation is its unifying function with reference to the basic disciplines and many specializations of scientific medicine. Doctor Welch himself, who is now professor of the history of medicine, believes that a study of medical history could be useful in the said that a knowledge of actual medicine, such as may be gained from actual practice, is of utmost importance. He made it made to write medical history. He attributed much of Professor Saffo's own success as historian to being a physician before he became historian. Because of the "transtumours" stab of American universities today, the new department of history of medicine at Columbia University's Abraham Flexner of the General Education Board, pointed out. With the University has come simultaneously an increased clearness and mechanization which is to be deplored. The new department has been returned to more cultural aspects of education, particularly along scientific and medical lines, where the eminent faculty is be almost exclusively technical. "Students Better in Course Lived," says Kansan headline. It also might read, "Students Like Better Course." What They Say SENSITIVE FOOTBALL From The Arkansas City Traveler A writer in the Des Moines Register wrote a statistical account of the victory of K. U. over Iowa Agrien, and facetiously spoke of Jim Bouché's "$10,000 a touchdown." This was the first time who proceeded to deny vigorously that Bouché was a professional, and explained that while Bouché is paid $75 a month by an insurance company during the college year, he underestimated how much he be repaid sometime after graduation. Whereupon the editor of the Des Moines Register explained that his sport writer was just doing it in fun, and that he had reference to the recent Carnegie Foundation charges of a child abuse case, so we, home, everybody will be happy. But football is sensitive over such matters, and why not? Granting that the lending of $75 a month to Bauchie would be a bad idea, it brings up a question: Would the insurance company pay that sum to Bauchie or not? Would she spankly-butook book USED CARS 1925 Ford Coupe 1925 Bus Touring 1925 Bus Coach 1925 Deuce Roadster 1925 Oldsmobile Roadster 1925 Bank Sedan 1925 Bank Sedan Many other student specialist Lawrence Buick Co.

From important central towns the salesman makes periodic visits to customers and prospects by telephone. To conceive this idea, to make it practical by selecting Key Towns on a basis of most advantageous rates to surrounding points, and to sell it as a business practice—all this illustrates how telephone service is as open as any commodity to constructive imagination. Key Town selling is one of many indications of the steady demand, present and to come, for more and more telephone service.
