JOHN ROACH STRATTON The death of Dr. John Roach Struthm marks the passing of a man who denied his fellowmen the right of free thought. A man was either with him and right, or against him and wrong. There was no compromise. As a militant fundamentalist he lived many years after his time. He will be remembered by America as a remarkable personality, a great orator, and the last bulwark of stereotyped religion. His greatest prominence came during the last political campaign when he stump campaigned against Governor Smith. He followed the campaign trail of the Democratic nominee and made species, the contents of some being so bioprotect, childlike and ignominious that the Republican Executive committee was moved to protect against the "silent campaign" which could be traced, partly at least, directly to him. His methods brought religion into politics; his actions tended to deflect the cause for which many of our forefathers made the supreme sacrifice on the battlefields of the new continent. Perhaps the salary of the young professor who played hobo in Kansan City last week-end was such that it permitted only of this form of announcement, says the Thoughtful Freshman. BRIAND STAYS IN While it is true that only two of the former quartet of peace advocates today are lending the administrative affairs of their government, the acceptance by Aristide Briand of the French ministry of foreign affairs, on a cabinet which he himself formed eleven times has heightened the hopes of peace advocates; and incidentally has increased the prospects for a successful radical socialistic regime in France. And with the unexpected from this quarter comes the hope that countries may dare as much for peace in the future as they have sacrificed for war in the past. A master stroke of statemanship may save the world for peace. They say that every nine years a new generation of writers spring up. Considering some of the stuff on the counters, it might be wise to skip a few generations. MORE ON THE BAND TRIP MORE ON THE BAND TRIP The band of the University of Kansas belongs to the student body. The Athletic division belongs to the student body. Predominent sentiment on the campus, notwithstanding the athletic division's statement that it cannot finance the band trip, still believes that in one way or another the band should make the trip to Nebraska as an obligatory representation from Mt. Oread—olligatory to the student body, to the support of the team, and to the Nebraska homecoming crowd. In view of recent adverse conditions in the athletic department, which is explained in that Kansas sports have been on the ebb, the athletic division has been forced to turn thumbs down on the foreign trips of the band. In view of the same tendency in recent years, the band personnel has come to feel that an injustice has been done them and that the athletic division is attempting to cast off a financial obligation to be unsumed in some other manner. Approached on the matter of a subscription campaign, members of the bd funduse to consider any subscriptions financing, and suggest that the trips be left out of the schedule this year to see if they are essential. Both the viewpoint of the athletic division and that of the band personnel is contrary to the student centriment. If the athlete department cannot finance the trip, then the student supporters and the Lawrence backers should do so. But the band trips should be included in the athletic budget for next year for the sake of harmony. Sex I. Lown State, if we had only a new more planks we might have enclosed Christian Keener Cagle, Albic tooth and Knute Rocke for the Jayawk squad! THIS FOOTBALL Now that the Carnegie investigation and the Des Moines implication have blown by, leaving Kansas with an apparently spotless, though challenged football status, the subject of football still prevail as a bone of contention in the Big Six conference. Although already Missouri has stepped up as Nebraska's jinx, and the K-Agliens as Kansas', the Big Six schedule remain heavily loaded with some titanic struggles to come. Now Nebraska offers the crucible football still prevail as a bone of contention in the Big Six conference. Although already Missouri has stepped up as Nebraska's jinx, and the K-Angries as Kansas', the Big Six schedule remain heavily laden with some titanic struggles to come. Now Nebraska bears the crucial test for Kansas. Their record is that of a team of supreme potentialities, though hereforeo unrealized Labellled as the Big Six "dumb" exponents, they were rudely awakened by Missouri last week end. It stands to reason that Nebraska will summon an organized power Saturday to reconspatter shattered morale. Kansas, on the other hand, has suddenly been brought out of the dumps by the sweeping Iowa State victory. Every indication points toward a Nebraska power spurred by a Homecoming crowd at Lincoln. Twelve years of Cornhuser ascendancy rests with the Lincoln eleven. The Jayhawkers were thorough in the defont of Iowa State Saturday, but a greater task lies ahead. Kansas is up against the season's highest hurle. But a fighting, stubborn, staunch Nebraska resistance may even duplicate "Mizzou" fete of last week to tie the mighty Cornhusers; an even more alert sixty minutes of Jayhawk playing with Kansas potentialities working at maximum, may down the "Golatin" and keep the sports spotlight focused. An account describing the opening of parliament said, "Lady Astor, who stood at the doors for an hour before they were opened, bent out Sir Friedrich Hall in a race for the third corner sent above the gangway." How playful this game of English legislation is. PUCKER, OR NOT? What has happened to the old knothole gang that used to "make" the football fence in Fall, or crawl under the circ tent in the Spring? The boys are still there with the same old tricks, except now they can see a K. U. football game for a dime and the circ free use if they distribute bills. The old tactics of pekin' through knotholes in the fence of the grid iron and of "watering" the elephants seem to be a bit out-of-date. But the gang's activities are not all out of date. Do you recall the time you tried to eat your first persimmon after the October visit of Jack Frost? "I listak a real nibble at first, or you'll be sorry," is the suggestion handed new members of the "gang" today just as it was then. It is the same precaution which we all passed unheeded for a bite of the luscious, plump, brownish persimmon just 'allen from the tree.' There are no circuses during the week or football games either, presenting the outsider a query as to what the "fella's" do for a livelihood in these dull moments. The "ole gang" is at work now, knocking the ripe perimemons from the tree-tops. The short, battered half-rotten "stabs" lying under persimmons trees are the weapons by which the boys knock the "greeneries" to the ground. The only vital inter- Pan-American Highway From Texas to Mexico City Nearing Completion Mexico City, — Less than 120 miles of roadway is all that will remain unopened at the end of 1920, of the new Pan-American highway between Laredo, Texas, and Mexico City, it is reported by the National Highway Commission here. It is now possible to go from Lacewood, via Monterey to Chihuahua, capital of Tamulapalu, and by the end of the year, the vault will be open to all. This week, we offer a free guided tour of out of the "ole gang" is that the persimmons be "good and brown and not the leat bit pickery." Just ask them for one when you see them at work; they're still "bills" and belong to your "ole gang." Preparations for the rally to dominate the Homecoming program have left the committee with so little time and space that some sincere effort will be required to keep the "Mizzou" game in the schedule. THAT NORTH CAMPUS WALK Rain poured down on Mt. Oread Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, leading the soggy soil a sticky, clinging, adhesive muddiness for the plodding student who trudged to classes on dirt paths. Most of the students who live on the north side of the campus have to desert their favored short cuts to keep to the concrete and brick walls. And as they go blocks out of their way to escape the slucky byways, we hear the murmur, "There nint no justi- The gum-forbidding professor says that students are growing so proficient that they are able to take notes in their sleep. Agitation for a walk through the stadium field and leading up to the hill has been heard for several years, especially as Orland's populace hops through the West Hills district and to the north side of the camps. They have seen the run come up and go behind the clouds, and the rain pour. They have awakened in the morning thinking not only in terms of the blasted dust weather but of another mile or so around the Hill in order to find a dry place to walk. We heard a freshman ask the other day if "Up From Savery" was the memoirs of a K. U. graduate Truly America can mourn its loss. As with every advocate of a new cause, his contribution to humanity cannot be estimated by this generation. Only time can tell whether this man, a liberal in thought and action, and a temperamental individual, will be placed in the halls of American immortals. One thing we do know; his spirit and the cause for which he so gallantly labored will go marching on. SENATOR THEODORE E. BURTON "When the origins of great and successful policies are examined in the retrospect of history, the Senator's name will rank among the first leaders of his time." In these words President Hoover commented upon the death of Senator Theodore E. Burton, a personal friend, Burton was the only man in American history who has served in the House of Representatives, then the Senate, dropped from active political life, and then returned first to the House and then to the Senate. A graduate of Oberlin college in 1872, a lower of peace and a bitter of war, he has always taken an interest in education and has been a firm advocate of the outlawry of war. During the Roosevelt administration, he was chairman of the rivers and harbors committee in the House, but could not visualize a comprehensive system of inland waterways such as was advocated for the Missouri and Mississippi rivers, and denounced the project as impossible. He was known as an insurgent, but after seeing the Republic split of 1916, he refused to be a candidate for office. After the war he returned to congress with lofty dreams of world-wide perpetual peace. To this end he devoted most of his time, coming into conflict with party leaders over the appropriation of funds for cruisers in 1926. During the last presidential campaign he was chiefly responsible for getting Ohio behind the nomination of Hoover. The portion between Valles and Lucia is being moved for 1950, as it will be covered by a new section of a very mountainous region, which will require much engineering to create. *Postolot, Working north from Mexico City, the road is now open to Ziomac end of the year, automobiles will be able to go as far as Jacanta, a point South of Mexico City, the Pan-American highway goes through Guadalajara, from which it photo, but from there on no official work has as yet been carried on. Work, however, will be begin on this highway in the next few months and will lead from Puebla south to Huajunan, and from three to the city of Oaxaca, an inaccessible region much From Oxnaxee, the road leads to Tohentanee, on the lithus of that name, and from there to Tuxtla Gutiérrez, capital of Chiapas. Then it went south through a small island of the Guatemalan border, through a region of Chiquipa but little known. Road construction was first begun seriously in Mexico in 1925, when two bridges were built. Luces, Iwachu, and Euchich, were connected with Mexico City. Because the traffic on these roads is heavy, they are hardly macadamated, but it is the policy of the Road Commission to have bridges at low costs until traffic is denser. More than 1200 miles of highway have been opened to motor turtle in Mexico since 1925, and over $310,000 has been invested in summer impoundment in 1928 was about 328 million liters. Although Mexico is one of the world's leading oil producing countries, gasoline prices are several higher than in the United States. A motor trip to Mexico will be of geographical and ethnographic values to the tourist. He will pass through deserts, rich tropical villages, some lakes, mountains, and then as he approaches the central state of Hidalgo, he will get higher than 10,000 feet, where it is a hot desert with salt pines and oak are the only trees. He will pass through the Huntsen region of Indians that are the puzzle of anthropologists, because they are apparently related to the Maya Region much farther south. The Indians are Otomies, and around the region of the valley in which Mexico City lies are the Atacus. After Pobla comes Hunjapan, where Mizique is spoken, and farther south near Chama City. In this part of the state of Chama are Indian groups related to the Mayas. Each of these Indian groups has largely retained its own language, though frequently it uses Spanish, Spanish and the costume, too, varies as a one passes from region to region. What Better?

Then one of them claimed to have seen the faces of members of the faculty dating students. She grinned, "Then does that mean I'll have to give up the course?"

Tupky of the economics department, in commenting upon the difficulties of obtaining a public notice to the applicant must have had three years' practical experience after passing the examination. "This practical experience is required for the doctor," Mr. Tupky commented, "because the doctor is only dealing with life and death, but when the accountant is involved in a case, the public must be sure of him." Heard in Passing: Van, the Animal Man; "Some of these boys call me 'Dad.' That joost makes me red-beared." Leo, Screen Lion Gives Roar in Person Here Leo, the lion whose screen shadow lifts its shaggy head and roars in the audience before each presentation of a Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, made its personal appearance in the 2014 movie theater. He is on a world tour, sponsored by the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer company. The advent of the sound pictures allowed Leo, whose picture was already familiar to hundreds of people, to run regularly at each appearance. He is the only one taken from his native jungle five years ago. He measures nine feet from the tip of his nose to the tuff of fur on his tail. His experiences include playing with cats and tricks, acting in silent drama and recent appearances in the sound pictures. If there are times when Leon longs for his far away jungle home, his lonnging does not impair his aptitude. He ate 25 pounds of raw beef last week.
