AGAIN KANSAS RANKS HIGH Last week the local Reserve Officers Training Corp. unit was subjected to the trying ordeal of the annual government inspection to determine if it should receive the covered distinguished school rating. For several weeks the freshmen, sophomores, junior and senior military students reviewed past work, practiced special skills, shined buttons and medals, and did everything to make themselves as efficient as possible. Although the marks of other schools in the Valley are not known, Kanani will unobviously be near the top when all the marks are made public. Only a very few universities over the distinguished school rating; and although the local marks may not be enough to place Kanani in that class certainly they will rank the local unit well toward the top of the list. That all of this effort was not wasted, but brought results, is shown by the rating which Major Raymond Baird, the inspecting officer, gave the coast artillery and engineer units. The artillery unit received a rating of 91.5, while the engineers were only a little behind with 86.6. The work of the military department is not one which shows up before the public eye, but it is making definite progress and keeping step with the University. Kansas has good reasons for being proud of its military department led by Major Cygon, Captain Lion, L.M. Teyner, and warrant officer Mr. Bovey, assisted by the non-commissioned detain, are turning men who are getting fundamental training from which real officers will be made. The military department is making strikes of progress despite adverse criticism. In addition to being highly pleased with the actual military work done by local students, Major Baird was struck with the incentive and responsive attitude given him in all classrooms.

ONE POSSIBILITY Asks the editor of the University Daykan, in an inquiring editorial, "After Graduation What?" Jack Harrison's graduates go to work. Jack Harris. We are sorry to disillusion, Mr. Harris, but his idea isn't entirely original. In fact, to be quite honest, we've been thinking about it for a long time. To be still more honest, we have sent applications far and near, but for some inconceivable reason they were never answered. It seems to be the consensus of opinion of seniors that business men unanimously consider 'this one possibility a huge joke. Now, we should like to suggest that Mr. Harris found an organization whose high ideal and purpose shall be "one easy job for every college graduate."

The determination that the specific features of the bill, one of which rends that the editor of the Jayhawk shall be chosen from a list of those candidates applying for editorial positions and the business manager from those candidates applying for the business staff positions, shall remain on the book, was the unanimous opinion of both the Moe's Student Council and W. S. G. A. in a joint meeting last night. The Jachawker bill was written with the purpose of eliminating political influence and group partnership and boosting merit and ability among the staff members. The bill as originally passed did not specify that the editor should be selected from the editorial candidates, or the business manager from the business staff candidates. The result was a shake-up in the selection the good features, the merits of which can be judged only by performance next year. But such a system does open itself to bitter criticism that it offers possibilities for the functioning of partisan blocs. The composition of the board is both student and faculty. The fact, however, that students are on the board does not signify that participation will be brought into play. The council has found it necessary, to add specific instructions to the bill proposed as a directive measure. It goes back to the administration with the unanimous approval of the student governing bodies. Perhaps specific directions must be given advisory boards to eliminate partnership which so often is hid at the door of student activities. SPRING CLOTHES Like brightly colored birds are the women as they appear each spring morning. No one color seems prominent; red, blue, green, bright yellow, white and all the pastels meet in kaleidoscopic beauty. If, as seems to be the general theory, a college campus is a show place of fashion, it is also the expression of a natural feeling for loveliness. Every woman is a law unto herself, and the colors that may be chosen are as gorgeous and no soft as the spring flowers themselves. After the college woman leaves college and goes into business or a profession she must wear dark, conservative clothing that harmonizes with her work. But here, for a little while, she may be as gorgeous as she likes. And spring clothes are like a good tonic. They add to the general feeling of beauty and well being as much as the flowers do. GOING WEST With the Golden Gate straining at its hinge to keep from hurting away from the gate posts, and the next nearest land being some small islands in the middle of the Pacific, we supported the old admonition of Horace Greeley to go West was in the discard. Or it may be that "Big Bill" Thompson of Chicago has a more subtle influence than he has been given credit for. Anyway, it seems an though a number of Chicago gunmen, gangsters, poll violators either migrated or were imported to Kansas City. The kidnapping and slugging incident to the bond election in Kansas City yesterday should be sufficient to make that city supra and twist as its unhallowed glory is flashed over the country. The one hope is that it will awaken the people to a condition that has gradually been growing, perhaps too subtle for an unobserved eye to catch until the outburst Tuesday. The Missouri valley is far to fair a place to be bemused and polluted by conditions such as now exist in Chicago.

ALSPACH, Chairman AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS NOTICE TO PRE-MEDICAL STUDENTS ANGOTHER PROOF OF BARNUM Make Mother's day a day to be remembered. Gold bricks, currency-making machines, the sale of old town townhouses—all of those confidence-men's tricks have become peace. Those survive gentlemen with warm musettes, a stick line of talk and checkered curtains are now requiring the "first payment down" on a brand new wife. And the worry about it comes in the fact that people are still biting. Consider, if you need a latch, the recent case of a Bellevue O., merchant with 82,000 in his pocket and no brain in his head. It happened that the merchant was in quest of a wife. Evidently he can easy to please, since he grabbed the first woman offered by a total stranger. It is plain to see that the man wanted a wife—just a wife in any old sense of the word. The stranger promised to notify his sister and have her start for Denver O, O, STOLAND, Secretary. On a train bound for Denver, the merchant fell to discussing marriage with a fellow passenger. In fact, this very same man and a sister in California who would marry the merchant if he could support her. The merchant dig deep and produced the $2,000 to prove that he could support any woman, whether she hailed from California or from Maine. For Prompt and Efficient Tow-In and Wrecking Service Call 47 Eudaly Bros. 643 Mass and, rather casually, borrowed the $2,000 as expence money for his sister's trip. Now, here' the way this thing looks to some people. Any man would be just a little bit simple to carry $2,000 around in his pocket. He would be neurotic to be looking for a wife in such a scattered manner, but any man who would allow a woman $2,000 hard-carried iron man for a more trip from California is plumpy crazy. The merchant waited all night for the stranger to return. A SUGGESTION Some owners assert there is an unusually large crop of dandelions this spring, despite the late freezes which blighted flowers and shrubs. The dandelion is not easily discouraged. There is only one good way to get it out of the garden, even that way is not a royal road. A sublimate of iron solution, a pound of the sulphate to two grains of flour, and a teaspoon of salt are the way. But one must be careful the solution is no stronger, or the gross will impach with the dandelion... New University Cafeteria likes the egg on an infirm old man' vest. It seems that K, U, is not the only place which is curved with a superabundance of this nexious weed, the dandelion, which opens the campus Since no one has taken kindly to the Kannah's suggestion of a day devoted to digging, perrias the building and grounds department will see fit to try this method. Certainly something should be done. At present the campus resembles a cross between a cool cellar and a vacant lot. We have served students the best food to be had during the past year.

Campus Opinion Editor Daily Kansas: "A pronounced person on the Hill" is taking his date down for a coin coil, any cinerates with her. Receiving a coin coil or any other choice a package of her choice. Not it wielded is said to as whether she escaped to smoke. Perhaps he speaks at first Half way down he asks her if she has a coin coil and then counts her hours, sometimes he doesn't. Never does he raise a word of objection against his date partaking with him of the pleasure. Never does he raise an in protest against the injustice he has caused, and by watches her through the fury, smiling at her intentions, at blowing rips, or infilting. He often congratulates her on being able to make nicely. After that not a word of about the matter—to the girl, that Sometimes this theoretical "prominent man on the Hill" merely offers data a reagent in but takes one answer. He may also will accept it. There are few girls on this Hill also have ever had a box raise any positive whatever against girl mobs making their case for privacy and power to crack it. In fact, the case here the boy would better to do so. So Selby does a well even think of smiling with the boy. These "protestant men on the HEE" were quoted in Monday's Kanay making that they have to see girls not dirty, and sweet, and everything connected with women from the beginning." Why then, don't they speak up when they are with the girls instead? How about telling the girls theseives, instead of talking about it among themselves. Of course they do not incur nearly as much risk of being violated, to cut down, and tell a girl that they would rather she would not stroke with them, but they prefer to hide behind the Korean columners in ways of resisting their depreciation. Such man *w* belongs to the HILL. Wh*e's Wim*, certainly must have a free idea of their girl friend to think of him, and to anger them. They, who think that the girls have no more respect for the wishes of others than that, have certain beliefs about her. In nothing less than a ham to the girls for the boys to give the impressi- nation that they are afraid to object to thinking for four they will "get mad." suited, there are other things even better. takes such a stand is respected more for speaking out than the boy who gets quoted as "hating it" and yr. to his girlfriend, not to notit to his particular girl." G. B. Our Contemporaries No girl minds having a boy refused her a figure, not even those who care for their snakes. In fact a boy who Undergraduate Internate Strange as it may seem there are undergraduates, who, if suddenly asked what they are most interested in would be at somewhat of a loss for a reply. Aside from a fold sort of knowledge about the good enough courses to ultimately get a diploma; and perhaps, or even perhaps not, an active interest in the minor vices, there is nothing else in undergraduation that immediately about one way or another. Needless to say everyone in college can't wear an athletic belt, or travel to the publications; nor would they all desire to. But we feel that men who are interested in something ever and above making examinations, and in getting into social recreation are especially fortunate. Individual tastes may find the work of one of the multicultural groups, or if some of these are particularly Literature in any one of its varied forms is only one example. A critical note for writings is always a reminder that should have some sort of an outfit for the excess efforts and the development of skills, and that a sense of satisfaction. Let those who are not convinced of the truth of the above statement be right to know. The Daily Princetonian.
