FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28,1928 NO SENSE IN IT BUT— The crash of paddles in the frosty air of a fall morning, the spectacle of a thousand beribboned cap bobbing along Oread avenue, the sinuous white line weaving down Massachusetts street in the night shirt parade, and the tingling pulse that comes as four thousand Jayhawkers roll a "Rock Cham" across the stadium field—these are the memories which will someday make the freshmen soften toward the regulations imposed upon them. The student council is to be commended for adopting rules which are moderate enough to encourage, rather than enforce, school loyalty. No immediate love of K. U. is going to be engendered by the pandling line, however. No freshman will think at the time he runs the gauntlet that overindulged feeling is conduct to loyalty, but as he looks back in later years the conviction will grow upon him that here was a bit of color in the drab routine of existence. It is a line of last defense of the old romantic and intensely youthful campus which is yielding to the somber business-like University. It is a bit of insanity in a world that is becoming infamously sane. BOOTLEGGING The worm has started on its way through our new quiz books. Boot-legging in quizzes has begun. A student who came to the University with a fair record of accomplishment had saucer eyes when an upperclassman asked him for help in one of his first hour quizzes. A pessimistic view perhaps but the old Spanish custom exists here as well as in other universities. When students have such high ideals, the professors' joy must be unconfined. College is the hardest part of life. We work hard spending father's money and driving his car, and drop in at the library once in a while. Thus we prepare ourselves for the marketing of peanuts or the measurement of Sunday suits as a profession. College is an activity the average student entered because everybody else was "doing it". The motto is to get by with as little work as possible and get the average that will get you in an organization. College is a side-show, as one father said, "My son is attending the Beta Eta fraternity." Therefore we have the problem of bootleg information in quizzes. A number of freshmen have become skeptical about the ceremony scheduled Oct. 4. RENEWED HOPE FOR MEXICO People of the United States should be glad to hear that the newly elected provisional president of Mexico intends to maintain and solidify friendly relations with his neighboring republic to the north. Emilia Porres Gill, secretary of the interior, will take up his duties as head of the Mexican government December 1. His term begins with the retirement of President Calles and continues until February, 1930, when a president chosen by general election will take The election of Porter GIL was unanimous. He has committed himself to a continuation of the policies of President Calle, including negotiations with the United States on a friendly basis; hence, the assa- mion of General Obregon, elected as Calle's successor, will not seriously affect the execution of the present program. A newspaper dispatch describes Portes Hlite a "stocky man with a sturdy frame and a strong face." Although only 37 years of age he had a distinguished career as a lawyer and administrator and is considered to be unusually well versed in matters of law. He is one of the few civilians who has ever been selected as chief executive of Mexico. Portes Gil has pledged himself to a policy "inspired by the highest principles of social equity and justice." According to his statements, he wants to promulgate and build up a feeling of goodwill with the United States. It is to be hoped that Portes Gil will observe this pledge concisionally and steadfastly. The upheavals in Mexican affairs have grown worrisome to the peoples of North and South America. A period of peace would likely prove a boom to progress and prosperity in that country, and a peaceful reign of "social equity and justice" would be refulct and pleasing to both Americans and native Mexicans. For a majority of the citizens of the United States are unoubtedly desirous that neighborly relations exist between the state departments of the two republics. UNSEEN COGS Soldom does one realize the value of the scrubs to the first team, yet those who report for practice faithfully, night after night, throughout the season play an important part in making the first team what it is. They receive little of the glory of the gridiron. They are unseen cogs in the great machine. The two-hour practice for any major sport is a steady, tough grind, rather uninviting to anyone who works without reward beyond the school and the game itself. It takes grit, determination and courage to give the first team the opposition it needs to develop into a first rate machine. The bumps and blows come hard and fact and it is up to the second string man to take them as they come. Although the cub gets but little publicity or glory during the season and doesn't sport a K sweater at the end of it, he makes a big contribution to the University and the team. It takes athletes, with brains to make the K. U. teams stay on them. This was indicated by the fact that not a single lineman on the first freshman team of last fall is back this year. The Line Seems Long but the Service Is Speedy This feature will eliminate any wait or waste of time on your part The New Cafeteria Remember it's on the Hill OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Vol. XVII Thursday, September 27, 1928 No. 13 Persons desiring to reserve University buildings or rooms for the use of group meetings or organizations should make such arrangements with Mr. John Dyer well in advance, and before announcing the place of meeting, he should inform the Student Shant, Any adjustments of such space should be taken up with him.

In order to be included in the Student Directory, all new addresses and all changes of address must be filed in the Registrar's Office immediately. NOTICE TO STUDENTS; Jimmy Walker, smoother dresser on broadway and incidentally mayor of New York, says that if churches become political club taking part in elections they must be taxed the same as his beloved Tammany which is a nutritive political club and administers. it. In view of the pictures painted of the new Tammayah by some of Mayor Walker's friends, we suggest that he make the club a church in keeping with its saintly nature. The new wigwam would be relieved of taxes by such a move. Miss Mercedes Gleitze, who made a vow at 12 years of age that no man should kiss her on the lips until she became his wife, is to be married soon to a man she has never seen. It's a good thing she didn't appear on the K, U, campus sometime, for her vow may have been broken. Then again she may have been the other type. Richard Loeh, who helped murder Bobbie Franks, has lost his "soft job" as secretary to an assistant warden and has been assigned manual labor in the yard. Wonder if he knows the meaning of the phrase "manual labor?" Some man in Kansas City stole the radiator of a sadden the other day. It used to be that radiator caps were stolen, then spare tires and now the radiator. Someone will be carrying off the engines before long. What the Kansas Editors Say At the recent National Shoot, conducted by the United States Government at Camp Perry, Ohio, to give a brief overview of the situation there were present a great many TRAINING TO PUT A CRIMP IN CRIMINALS In addition to other contestants, there were 75 police officers compiling 14 teams of at least five men from various cities in Los Angeles, Portland, New York, Detroit, Seattle, Toledo and Hartford, Connecticut. They were sent to better fit themselves to carry out their work with the police, serve, and thus render better public service. The results of instruction received by these men will be far reaching and each year the number of officers sent to take this course, increases. hundred rifle and revolver shooters from all over the country. Police officers, fully trained in the correct use of small arms, and private citizens who receive similar training in these national Shoots, and who go out and create civilianism in our country, automatically increase the number of citizens who are better able to protect life, liberty and property in this nation. Never did we have a greater need for a straight shooting police force to handle abnormal crime cases where a new exist in some of our leading cities. The success in the training of Butler County Vigilantes in this respect in our local community's contribution toward the solution of a condition which has challenged the best thought. —EI Dorado Times. TUTOR AND PUPIL Several of the Democratic editors of the state have been referring to Hoover as "a pupil of Calvin Coolidge." That's amusing. In thought and experience Hoover knows no horrors. Coolidge is a provincial New Englander, and his world is circumscribed accordingly. If there has been any tutelage, the more plausible assumption would be that Hoover has been the tutor and Coolidge the pupil. It was a matter of common gossip about Washington, during the time that Mr. Clinton would meet that the President called upon him for advice far more frequently than upon any other cabinet member, and that he was not only accepted and acted upon.—Arlene C.

A COSTLY MISTAKE S饮水, now he and prematurely at 38, was arrested for murder in New York in 1989 as he stepped off the lier lastiaman. He waived extradition and returned to Ghosqou for trial, where he was convicted and convicted of murder. A date set for his execution the sentence was commuted to life imprisonment. After almost twenty years apart in a London prison, Shater, who is championed by no less persecutors than Ramsey Macdonald, former prime minister of the United Kingdom, has won his case, the Scottish Court of Appeals unanimously setting aside the conviction on the ground of misdirection in law by the judge. The government is now considering amendment "in proportion to the wrong done." Complaints are heard daily of laws which favor the criminal, but causes such as this one, in which justice fails. The laws that have been accused, give a horrible example of the fallibility of the law in the opposite direction. Columbia is mite RED EYES "The true university is a library, and the true student a man whose eyes are red with strain. He coeds far more widely and intensely than the average person believes quite often. She describes Vito, Harvard, Harvard's first instructor at Northwestern university, in the October number of Harper's. Mr. DeVoto's conception of the true student is in long ways from the average collegian's conception. Not at all surprise, however, in Mr. DeVoto does not hesitate to claim that not one per cent of the students in his class are college graduates to secure the best education possible. Despite the pessimistic attitude he shows toward collegiate youth, he presents some startling criticisms of Omaha Hat Shop Phone 255 Six years of service and twice around the world We clean your hat, repair your shoes, shine them and deliver them to your address.

Abandoning the usurpation of athletics and extra-curricular activities, he poened out his education and posed as a result of mma education. Out of all his criticism, one point stands out, applicable alike to the practical and technical students whom no ignorance and to the liberal student in whose supposed interest he writes. This is his plea for a medial of think-ing merely in college but in later years. In this regard he writes that the true student should "be allowed to take the first steps toward a method of learning, be made to make habituation to put under way a Two often the student, pressed by the insufficient demands of credit hours, is forced to take a course in which she can lay the groundwork for mature education.
