WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1928 Nitrated an second-class mail matter September 17, 1975, at the post office at Lawrence Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1975. YOU ARE INVITED Tomorrow the play-by-play results of the first game of the world series between the Cardinals and the Yankees will be received over the wires at the Kansas office and announced at the northeast corner of the Journalism building. Special leased wire arrangements are being made to receive an account of the game while it is going on. An announcer with a megaphone will read the dispatches aloud as they are received, after which they will be nocked on the bulletin board. THE BIG FAMILY IDEA This is the Kansan's baseball party to which all are invited. A new item from New York is that large families soon will be fashionable, according to Dr. George F. Buchan, a physician of London, England. He said that it was not so many years ago that the big family idea was popular because it was fashionable and that this "style" will return again soon. And think how her father's pocketbook would profit when Johnnie's last year coat could be hounded down to Jimmy and from him on down to Billy. If big families should again become common, we could expect the return of other fads. For instance the old family photograph perhaps would again grace the mantel shelf or the piano. Large families could furnish their own players for a friendly game of croquet occasionally. Family histories and "family trees" would become doubly interesting. ALARMING In spite of all the traffic laws, safety devices and talk about driving cars carefully, the fatalities this year have reached 13,800, a total of 960 more than at the same period last year. Indications are that there will be even more deaths by the end of the year. What a horrible figure and a ghastly thing to talk about. Authorities seem to think that people will not become educated in safety methods no matter how much money and time is spent in the attempt to teach them. To some extent this condition prevails at K. U. It is so easy to speed down the hills and avoid the stop signs in the various places. It is easy to have one's attention attracted to some friend on the sidewalk. It is so easy to cut corners sharply or drive close, to other cars just for a big thrill. Fortunately there have been no fatalities in this vicinity in the past few weeks, but accidents are frequent and the opportunity for disaster is too great to take any chances. The figures are alarming and it behoves every driver to be extremely careful. A man 6 feet tall and weighing 225 pounds, turned his car over while driving in Kansas City. Unassisted he lifted the machine back on its wheels. He should get a job on a college football team. Loeb and Leepold deny that they are "pampered pets" in the state prison at Joliet, Ill. The small boy wonders if being a "pampered pet" is as bad as being the teacher's pet. A Houston, Texas, young man who was a student at the University of Texas, died during the initiation having being conducted by a Greek letter fraternity. The members of the fraternity are not being held responsible. A number of other plagues were put through the same treatment without serious injury. The death was an unfavorable accident, Undocumented "publicity arising from the case will increase adverse criticism of college fraternities with their paddling and hasing habits. The public conception of fraternities is largely made up of "hearts, beatings and hell-weeks." This is distinctly unfair. Social societies have many good features. Anyone who actually understands what the fraternal order is, will quickly grant that. Nevertheless, fraternities will raise their standing greatly among parents and other patrons of higher education when they fit to abilify the foolish and often dangerous practices of discipline "in the barrel stave." ACTED WISELY Students whose athletic activity last year consisted in pulling the lever of one of the slot machines in the student restaurants, drug stores and confectionary shops, are finding themselves out of training and not in the best condition physically. Some have noticed, however, that they are in better condition financially. Evidently the merchants took Chief of Police Johns seriously when he announced that he would "clean up" and rid the town of slot machines used illegally, or else they have found that the machine leaves customers dissatisfied, some criticized, and cleanse the atmosphere of the place of business. In either case they have acted wisely. When King Emmanuel's cousin, duke of Apulia, heard that he vice be to next king of Italy, because Emmanuel was to abdicate soon he replied that it was "plain baloney". We always thought Italianes would use the term "sparotti" when they wanted to slang. Something is radically wrong. Here nearly two weeks have passed and we haven't beard about filers crossing either the Pacific or Atlantic or anyone swimming the English Channel. An Irishman in Chicago asked Governor Smith for his cigar. The Governor was somewhat surprised but he complied with the request. If AI had been a college student who just paid his fees and bought his textbooks, we wonder what he would have done for another cigar. China may have the oldest civilization in the world but it took America to show it how to run a co-educational institution successfully. It has failed in China and "generally undesirable" was the verdict handed down by education officials there. Several fellows who have been desiring to get better acquainted with the women of the University believe they will apply for the postman's job. Wonder how many students have taken all their allowed cuts already this semester? Residents of Lawrence are not the only ones to receive with regret the announcement that Dr. Edward Hislop, pastor of the First Methodist church, is to leave soon for a pastorate in Kansas City. Doctor Hislop, who is a member of the University Y, M, C. A., advisory. board and who has taken much interest in religious activities on Mt. Orndon, is a man who sees situations of the day from the student's point of view as well as from the side of the older. One of his outstanding contributions was the formation of Wesley Foundation for Methodist students.

PSYCHOLOGY LECTURE; A lecture on practical problems of human behavior and mental hypsipi will be given by Dr. G. Leonard Harrington in northernictum Adminstration College, St Louis, MO. Watkins National Bank as well as to the adults. When activities were being planned Doctor Hilsop never failed to see that youth had a port. Activity has not been all of it, for his liberal views on student life, his straight-forward presentation of high idealism and sincere appreciation for the aesthetic life which he represented so well in his congenial manner made him a valuable man to Lawrence and to the University.-A Student. RAYMOND H. WHEELER.

WHEN THE PHONE BELL RINGS: We are pretty well used to the telephone, which always can be counted on to ring just when you are taking a bath, drifting off to sleep or taking the ashes out of the furnace. We've seen the use of a nuisance and an invader of privacy. It is interesting to learn that Alexander Graham Bell, who invented it, eventually came to look on it as the European ds. Catherine Macleish, in biography of the inventor, says: "Bell deplored the casual manners his invention had introduced. Nobody he said, would dream of coming to one's house and demanding an audience while one dined, bathed or醉ed. Nobody else wanted a perpetration demand, by telephone." A European doubtless would say that Bell's diamay was, after all, only justice—Kansas City Kansas. NO PLACE FOR SNOBS RAYMOND H. WHEELER. A newspaper correspondent who has been with Senator Charles Curtis during his entire campaign tour told an Arkansas City newsman must Saturday that the Republican vice-presidential nominee has been received with remarkable acclaim wherever he has some. What a tribute that is to the democratic spirit of America—that a man could pull himself up from the most modest beginnings and have the fact that he would half rather than against him. That is one of the glories of America. That is the spirit which has made America great—the spirit that has put confidence and the joy of living into the spirit of rich man and poor man alike. "I think," he said, "that it is so much the senator's speeches—all though they have been good—but, rather, the fact of his having risen from poverty has made him write that fires the imagination and wins the approval of his audience." "Ohio League Admits Truth," is a bold-faced headline in the Atlanta Constitution. Without ingriving what Ohio leagues, in a political campaign surface it to say that it is requested and sensational when any participant caught telling the truth. Topkka Capital, A NICE BIRDIE NOW An Arkansas City youth is president of the Y. M. C. at K, U. O. also circulation manager of the Sao Otol humorous publication. How times changed! We will attend that noble institution, the Y. M., we usually try to have the Sao Otol suppressed, and anyone convicted wifi, should be flushed out on general principles by the instructors and lore under surveillance by the Lawrence police department—Arkansas City Traveler. The King of Spain has come hard work to do. He was recently commissioned to make an octroiated carmine jacket in Scotland. Hutchinson News. Now it is proposed to find employment for women 40 years and older. But where will women meet jobing, training and retirement? — FOX News State Journal. Right in the heat of the presidential campaign the Kansas City Times prints an extended article the bead of which in sentimental type declares that "a Normal Pitilary Glind is Essential to Normal Life." How both parties have responded to their platforms is one of the regimes of politics—The Capitol Capital. Everything has been going along quietly in Germany in recent years and the talk of a possible revolution had disappeared. But there is trouble now. The officers of the Navy have been ordered not to permit their wives to ask their hair. Prior to the World War such a ban was almost always without much thought, but the naval authorities have overlooked the fact that Germany is no longer a monarchy but is a democracy and A NEAR REVOLUTION Newman has had the antiburn expedition been issued by the naval brigade the women of Germany began to rise in their rath and to say things which would once have been treason, but which are not so any more. They contended that while the naval force might order the style of haircutting for the actual employees, it had no power to reach out into the air. Newman said he the hair of the head for any purpose whatever, either to ensure their hair or take it off. The German government for forced to stop consideration of such trivial subjects as the French occupation of the Rhine and the tariff on agricultural products in order to give attention to the safety of their citizens who took up the cause of their sisters who married into the Navy. The regulation was revoked. The naval banon was admonished never to do such a thing again. A report in the *New York Times* directed Birchman to News. In politics many people are unable to support a candidate because they prefer them; they have to loathe, detest, abhor, desire and abominate the opposition candidate. On one day this week The Capital lost two subscribers. One asked that his paper be stopped because he could not bear to road rough treatment of AI, and the other agreed that it would be tough enough — Touka Caintai. STEALING FROM CHARITY Manager Harry McClure is throwing open his three tenants tomorrow in the interests of the Florida Relief Fund of the American Red Cross. A collection is being taken up at the door, every penny of which will go direct to Florida to alleviate the burden caused by the recent hurricane. The performance is free to pilots and cheap skates. All others will make a modest contribution to the cause as they enter the theater. Anyone who puts in less than 25 coins can figure that he is stealing from the Red Cross. If you must steal from the police, you can come to town selling coins and swipe the money out of his hat. The blind man may be a friend, —the money which you give him may not be wisely spent. The money you give the Red Cross is wisely administered, where it will do the most good.
