FUNERAL FRIDAY
William Allen White, commenting on the dying of the Rock Chalk says in the Emporia Gazette:
Old dolders who once were students at K, U, are becoming the fact that the Rock Chalk College ell is dying out.
Why ween and wall?
We who invented the old thing had our fun, and passed our thrill on even to the second and the third generation.
There is no virtue in that yell. It is no conjurer, no witch word.
Why then cling to it? Why not let this generation of students in vent its own blah-blah? Dead hand grip lifespan paralyze it.
The old yodel has served its day.
Let it pass.
Ring out the old-ring in the new. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
Tomorrow also is a day. Let it be cloudy by no shadow of an inch on the ground. But if something else will replace it—if replacement is needed, If not—it's time to recharge.
If the Rock Chalk is dying a n show death as is indicated by its omissions and feeble reception then it should be murdered efficiently and given a fitting burial. The burial ceremony might well be performed at high noon Hobo day, with the cheerleaders as pal bearers and the alumni as chief mourners. The Second Generation Club might form the main procession, but the student body, having evinced little interest in the slow decline of the famous yell should be admonished to keep out of the way of the funeral as it wends its way down to a far corner of the Campus.
THE NEW HERO
The female youth of the land will soon be absorbed in a new spotlight hero. New thrills are in store for hecky young women who happen to meet him. Rotogravure sections will herald his coming. He will be interviewed and asked to give his opinion on everything from politics to women's makeup. Perhaps he may even become interested in a governor's daughter. Poor Allan Hoover! For variety, however, we hope young Hoover does not fish; his father does enough for two and besides, he heard so much about fishing during the Coolidge administration. We hope he goes out for football and plays on soggy wet fields. (John Coillidge was always so immaculate). If a romance develops, we hope Allan will at least admit it, instead of not choosing to talk; and with the acquisition of the first job we almost pray that he will write more than three words upon accentuation.
FACULTY SUPERVISION
Student committees and affairs of all kinds are almost constantly being placed under faculty supervision, with no additional compensation for the faculty member. After someone is so placed, the responsibility of those who do the "placing" usually ends. In theory this may have some good points; but in practice it frequently happens that a faculty member placed in an advisory capacity can be far from successful from the student's point of view, especially if he is not particularly interested in the project or is not in a position to devote much time to it.
A few years ago the intramural contests were a hodge-podge arrangement of which no one knew a great deal and schedules were next to impossible to keep. With someone whose specific duty it is to have
charge of this student activity at this has been changed to a well working unit. The Daily Kansan in building a cure for faculty supervision in its laboratory employed a full time instructor.
If competent men and women are to give their time and thoughts seriously to the supervision of student affairs they should have something other than "the experience" as compensation.
Practically all plays depend upon a single mood and their authors have difficulty in making use of more than a few of the highly dramatic devices for gaining and holding the attention of audiences.
"Hamlet," the most successful of all successes on the stage, changes moods as readily as women are supposed to change their minds. It moves swiftly into a background of greatest tragedy, made more intense with humorous passages sometimes bordering on barrageque; has its share of love interest; and runs the grum of theatrical effects from mad scenes to assassinations, from the novelty of a play within a play to the bidderness of low comedy coming from the months of almost invisible gravelleighs in a graveyard at night.
"HAMLET"
Most male actors who are really serious in their work can confess that they have had at one time or another an overwhelming desire to play Hamlet. Women of the stare include the role of Ophelia among their professional ambitions. But seldom does an amateur actor or actress get the chance to play either of these great parts. Seldom does an amateur organization even consider putting on the play, "Hamlet." Its difficulty is not inspiring; its changes of mood within the greater mood of tragedy seem almost inconceivable difficulties.
The Kansas players must be congratulated on their audacity in attempting the difficult drum, "Himel" has at last been wrested from the high priests of the lecture room, has been stolen from the assignment sheets of the professors, and has been given life.

A SOUTH AFRICAN PLAN
British South Africa has taken the first step in a movement that might well—though probably it will never be followed in the United States. The university need to alter Africas trust and unrestricted no-called university-colleges that displace the land's educational energies by infinite duplicate. Instead, universities should number of well equipped institutions of higher learning, some carrying on the functions of universities and the others those of technical schools, medical colleges, or other away to keep alive small institutions sharing each other in all directions. The official report made on the process of moving universities onto sets forth that: "Technical colleges should only provide for a specialized type of secondary education, their activities being co-ordinated with universities, on the other hand, should imply a reasonable minum as regards facilities for wide reading and expert training, and the students living in a true university atmosphere, created by a sufficiently large and diversified number of students and subjects, and the element and possibility of further development."
In the United States we have, according to 1927 figures given out by the United States educational bureau, "the highest number of colleges and universities, the distinction between the latter terms being almost vague. In Virginia they are the names
As in South Africa, so here, greater educational co-education is needed, and a greater concentration of faculty in education is required to patent students to rise to their full stature, and would not tempt many of what a doctor con has termed "edu-
cated". Students are given the same name only, "university", graduates. — New Orleans Times-Picayune.
Nobel Prize Award for 1928 May Start Controversy Over Rights Involved
Washington, Nov. 20 - "Synthetic cod liver oil" alli't that holds homes and prevents the childhood disease of rickets without the unpleasant taste of the fish oil was recognized when the 1928 Nobel Prize for chemistry was awarded to the chemist John Vernon Hunt in June 2014. The time that the Nobel Prize Committee has recognized any of the scientific work done on the problems of human nutrition. The work for which Doctor Winston received the prize was the successful repetition of experiments proving that ultraviolet light, either in sunlight or artificially produced, activates the chemical called ergosterol and confer on it antituberculosis pro-

Few persons consider headline writing on art, yet if the mastery of a well-written headline on art, the writing of须须les should rank high in the scale. A copywriter must conduce into an essay or a book in which he presses by a speaker in a 5,000 word talk, and if the bendwriter be an expert, he will most un surprise what the bendwriter is thinking.
However, the "medium of expression" is far from pinnacle, and expert conveyors are few. The wonder is that they don't have to be but the relative absence of them.

If America establishes an institute of journalism patterned after the Institute of British Journalists, she will become a pioneer in the visit of the British journalists who were in Columbia on Oct. 19. In New York City, today at a conference beheaded by a group of journalists and publishers, Kulph D. Blumford president of the Institute of British Journalists, was to present the scope and method of operation of that event.
What such an institute would mean to America, can be surmised from what it has mount in England. The addition of a minimum wage for British journalists $45 a week for reports on war, terrorism and those working in the provinces. It has also arraigned for its members, in particular, Mr. Winston Churchill, half day on full pay yearly.
Great Britain has no schools of Journalism, yet she has been able to raise the profession of Journalism, and she has done so best by Mr. Blumentfeld in an interview published in the "Editor & Publisher". In that magazine, he is choosing and training newspaper men one which I believe might be adopted with pride in the field of journalism with a fine-tooth comb searching for persons of talent and productions for journalism. Men and women provinces where they spend two years going through the gamut of newspaper making. After these two years, I have developed into professors of the Institute and spend another two years on larger newspapers in more important positions. At the Institute, they are developing into first-class journalists; they are elected to membership in the Institute. Then they are E. W. J. L., Fellow of the Institute of Journalists, considered one of the highest honors in journalism and an incentive to careers.
We await with interest the outcome of this conference, as it may in some way affect our schools of journeymen and graduate students or both—Columbia Missorium.

- According to information available here the experiments were originally performed by Prof. George Burger, of the University of Edinburgh. Doctor Burger's original results that he asked permission to collaborate with Burger in subsequent work on the problem, Winden himself had been experimenting among similar subjects without achieving definite results.
"The College Jeweler"
A scientific controversy may arise from this Nobel prize award since priority honors and patient rights are involved in the situation.
While the prize was awarded to Doctor Wendrus, the subject of the antitoxin properties of foods has been the focus of investigators both in this country and Europe for many years. The scientists at V. M. Collum and his associates at the Johns Hopkins University found that a substance known as vitamin D and other antioxidants is mostExtent in other fats has the power of preventing rickets. These scientists also were the first to by crossing them to ultraviolet rays would keep the animals from having rickets even if the antitoxin vitamin D was out in
The next step was taken by Prof. Harry Stuebock, of the University of Wisconsin, who instituted their antihistatic power. Commercial products that had been used in their food. He worked with a mixture of foods and found that irradiation gave the foods the antirhythmic power. Commercial products were progress under the Steuben patient Dr. Alfred E. Hess, of Columbia University, ironized the different classes of foods suitable and allowed them to be contained in fates. He and everyone else believed for some time that it was the cholesterol of fats in the food that caused the faties wer
nitely that it is ergosterol and not cholesterol which is activated by exposure to ubrivalen light. Doctor Burger and his associate, Dr. A. T. Burger, described recent studies with animals that this activated ergosterol can prevent rickets.
