FRIDAY, MAY 31, 1929 CITY THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS CITY More than one hundred prominent Kansas Citians have definitely committed themselves to a great educational undertaking, that of establishing a University of Kansas City. It is to be incorporated as a non-sectarian institution of higher learning, an efficient helpful university linked with the commerce and professions of the city. However, the undertaking will not be uninued until at least five million dollars are behind the project. The University of Kansas City is distinct from the Lincoln and Lee university plans but the possibility of a merger has been suggested. Official announcement of the new university comes as a complete surprise to those persons not intimately acquainted with Kansas City affairs. It is an announcement of vital interest to the University of Kansas and the University of Missouri That such plans on the part of Kansas City, if carried to completion, will greatly affect the enrollments in the two state universities is most probable. Already, the junior colleges in that vicinity have decreased the freshman enrollment in the state schools. With the University of Kansas City situated so advantageously between the two state schools, a still greater decrease in enrollment may be expected. When this happens, the Universities of Kansas and Missouri may find themselves forced into a position which will require many new adjustments to the situation. A NEW MAJOR A certain class of students has for years been evolving a new theory of education. It has practiced what it preached, and has seemingly been very successful in carrying out its own platform. This far-from-novel idea has been that students should go to school for the sake of every thing but study. Part of this class has gone in for extra-curricular activities, and part of it has majored in "good times." The result has been a collection of low grades, together with narrow escapes from flanking; sometimes, by a combination of bluff and good luck, a high grade in obtained. these happy-go-lucky students have often been compared to the grasshopper in the fable, and columns of commiserating superiority have been printed at examination by those "more fortunate" studious ones. Why pity them? Pity will only be wasted. Surely these students consider the pleasure of idle weeks during the semester worth as much as the one or two crowded weeks of reckoning at the end. PEANUT PUSHERS One of the latest thrill seekers or maybe just a plain publicity "hound" is pushing a peanut to the summit of Pike's Peak. In about a mile he wore five googles and one knee pad, which looks as though most of the peanut crop will be used up. THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS licity stunts which have been practiced for years. A presidential election everlastly, seems to be the signal for an epidemic of ridiculous tricks to blossom forth in payment of political wagers. Wheelbarrows are pushed across the country, none are worn thin from packing various articles breadlessly along, and men become half and "tiff-legged" from walking backwards over hills and valleys. The peanut pushing episode is on a par with all the other cheap pub- Fresh stunts performed in public should be abolished. They are a menace to the mentality well and a labe on the mentally ill. Persons of some sensibilities are very apt to question the mental cognition of those individuals who make such public spectacles of themselves. At the same time many persons who do not perform nearly so madly are being confined in anylums. If it were permissible by law to hold such queer performers for mental examination, the peanut and whewbarrow puchmight try to gain their thirst and publicity by more sane devices. "REACH FOR A SWEET" Experts of eighteen different countries, after consultation over the international sugar situation, have at last decided that persons must eat more sweets a period of three or four years in order to stabilize the production of sugar. Recent discussion of the farm bills would have the public believe that sugar taxation is one of the situations most difficult to deal with, and stabilization of the industry would be of immense economic importance. Therefore it would seem that the most immediate way to economic "cure all" is biased in the slogan "Eat More Sugar." Just what effect the discovery will have on the national advertisers' units is anning to guess. Cigarettes will have to lose favor as a substitute for sweets. Scientists may have to deep in their laboratories to make tables of the value of sugar for energy consumption. Fashion mongers may even have to decree a return to the proportions of Venus de Milo for the "perfect figure." But as for "consumer effect" (to use a phrase of which advertisers would approve) there is little doubt. The sugar industry will sow to a plane of international stability, while the poor soup-supported, vitamin-doctored, spinach and amarena-fed public sets back with a biflush smile to employment of a return to "the good old..."

The better judgment is based upon the great majority of young men and women who are exposed to a pursuit of an education, vocational knowledge, mental and manual skill, and vivid in their ambitions. In the general society of the nation, they are, as the president says, "the brightest generation, the most deserving, the most attributive and support.
