WE WANT TO BELIEVE IT THURSDAY, OCTOBER 24. 1929 No one was quicker to deny The Kansan's contention that there was dissension among members of the football team than the players and coaches themselves. That was expected. We want to accept their demand. We want to see an end to the grumbling among Kansas football fans. When the perennial query "What is the matter with Kansas? is beared, we want to reply with a fervor of conviction, "Nothing!" We are willing to believe that the dissension has disappeared, or ever that it never existed, if we can be assured that it is permanently dead. We want to see the team supported. We want to forget the K-Agrie defeat and look to the games that are to come. We want to take defeat without grumbling, and to win by virtue of superiority and co-operation. We want a revival of school loyalty, but luxury inspired by confidence, confidence in team fighting, sacrificing, co-operating, for the glory of the whole, and not for any of its members. If that confidence is justified, we call upon every student and alumnus to bush his grumbling and give the team support. And we want to believe that that confidence is justified.

MAKING KISSING SAFE You have to hand it to the Kansas State Board of Health for their common sense knowledge of human nature. While other health authorities are beginning their annual fall campaign against cold weather kissing, this board is said to have come out with a set of rules for kissing in the winter. Realizing that it is a hopeless task to eliminate all of the devastating incubation during cold months, they do the next best thing and try to make it safe. This practical service to the people should do much to endear them in the hearts of their constituents. The chief drawback to this discussion is that the board has denied having written them. But anybody, they are good. The rules quoted by The Nation are: "Never kiss in crowded places or a poorly ventilated room. "Guard against sudden changes in temperature when kissing. Kissing in a coonskin coat one minute and a lighter apparel the next is extremely dangerous. "Don't kiss any person who has chills and fever. "At a party where kissing games are played, be sure to gargle frequently. "If you must kiss, take a hot mus-tard footbath, and avoid drafts in case you feel ill afterward." It is too much, however, to expect any political board to do anything to the perfect satisfaction of all. For the most part the rules are good. To carry them the kisser needs the help of higher authorities. The first rule, of course is unnecessary; who wants to kiss in a crowded place? The second and third are impossible. If kissing can be done without sudden changes in temperature, chills, and fever, why do it? THE BAND STAYS HOME The singing doughbys won the war. Music quieted a frantic mob at sea when frenzy would have meant death. Orchestras away great audiences to sensing the strongest of emotions; and the K. U, band chords for the rolling, swelling, Rock Chalk, as Kansas fans cheer their team. The Nebraska game is the outstanding game to be played away from home this year. Hundreds of rooters will hitch hike, ride bus, train or collegiate Ford to Lincoln, Nov. 2, but the lack of funds in the athletic department decrees that Mac's hand will stay in Lawrence. The "hovling mob" will be without a leader and the crisis may come and go without the challenge of school royalty as shown by the famous chant. A CONSOLATION PRIZE Al Smith, the recent Democratic candidate for the presidency, advocates in his autobiography amendment of our Constitution to provide the candidate for the presidency who receives the second highest number of popular votes be entitled to a seat in the United States Senate. He thinks that the defended presidential candidate who has received several million votes should not be forced to retire and leave his supporters unrepresented. Instead he should be given a seat in the Senate as a senator-at-large during the term of his successful opponent. This consolation prize would place the candidate of the opposite party in a position officially to oppose the measures of the president who has been elected by the majority party. In case an equal division of party power in the Senate, the rejected candidate could defeat any measure that he wished to defeat. Again, if he has been rejected by the majority as its next president, he would not be wanted in the Senate, either. PLACING THE RESPONSIBILITY "Principal Ceremonial Officer at the White House and Chief of the Division of International Conferences and Protocol of the State Department" is the formal title for Jimmie Dunn, who actually is the Capital City's social fixer. It is his task to answer questions ranging from the correct time for entertaining, and the suit to wear when meeting an Ambassador, to the ranking of the official representatives of foreign countries, and back again to whether Mrs. Gann or Mrs. Longsworth should have the place of honor.

Editor Daily Kansan: Your sports page last night quotes Leslie Edmonds of the Topca Capital as suggesting the need of liaison between the football field and the press box, to the end that the "dislike" reporters may know what is going on. Such has been the practice at the University of Kansas for many years—ix or seven at least. Through concentration of the athletic management, the school has developed the operate telephone lines from the sidelines into the press box at all football games and track and relay events, bringing to the box immediately all the news. W. A. D. The K. U, press box is neutral in which visiting and local newspaper men co-operate in identifying a report of the game. If any newspaperman prefers to "go to it entirely" and falls into error it is entirely his own fault, for all facilities must accurately record accurate report are provided here. K. U. News Bureau Players are identified by the News Bureau man on the sidelines opposite the point of scrimmage, especially if the play is on a distant corner from the press box, or late, when the officials are not there from the press box. Reasons for penalties are relayed by phone from the official who is notifying the score board of the reason. A separate wire is manned to keep names of substitutes straight—ordinarily not difficult, but confusing when substitutions are made at midpoint. In the recent K, S, A, C. game, a faculty member from K, S, A, C. assisted in compiling the statistics of the game, and agreement was reached before any entry was made of kurtz games. In the recent record of the statistical report of the game.

However, I was also in a position to see the action in view of this, in view of this, I believe that the author of the article in Monday's Kansan overlooked several things: First, a cheerleader is supposed to lead cheers, *not produce* them. Nothing but a miracle or some other act of providence can inject pop into a team's chemistry. The cheerleaders do not come under the heading of "Miracle" or "Acts of Pro- There is nothing that is responsible for a peplum crowd except the individual members of that crowd and the people on the outside, me is the keynote of the entire situation. If a school crowd is willing to admit that it is composed of such spineless poor sports that they can be in raining or that their team is losing then, I may they do not deserve to have a winning team. A crowd that isn't good sport enough to yell out their frustrations win or lose, rain or shine, had better like up something mild like tiddle-dew-winks. (I almost said bridge but Lawrence is too close to Kansas City, he's about people who are err in bridle.) It is often said that if the crowd is behind the team, the team cannot lose. That is slightly exaggerated but nevertheless, a crowd can move when the crowd has no spirit, then it hardly seems fair to expect the eleven men on the team, or the three cheerleaders to carry the whole bur- —An Alumna who saw the game "Hyde to Meet Packers."—headline, Presumably, the leather market is overcrowded.
