WEDNESDAY, APRIL 25,1928 PRACTICAL POLITICS Tonight the Mock Republican Convention will be held at the University Auditorium under the direction of the department of Political Science. It is timely, and from it should come much knowledge of the actual work of a convention of a great political party; Those actively engaged in the preparation and communition of the Convention plans will be primarily aided to knowledge through direct contact with the machine organization. To the average observer will come the view, in miniature, of all the important parts of the party machine and of their function in the selection of a candidate for the presidency. The Mock Convention will clarify many points of action which will be seen at the Republican Convention in June. Students should, if only for the sake of information, watch the procedure in the Convention tonight. It will be worth while. THE CENTER OF DISTRAC TION It is nights like these that cause boys to leave their fraternity pins in their dresser drawers when going out on dates. The possibilities of Watson library as a recreational center are being extensively developed. Even the education reserve room, long semi-circad to study, is being invaded by that everlasting misuse, the library date. Within each room attendants struggle to keep up the fast falling tradition that the library is a quiet place for concentration. Outside, the halls echo with laughter and conversation. Lambda Phi Alpha holds hourly open house for a vast majority of misjudged students who vociferously meet and greet their fellows within halls originally meant for a less social purpose. The gentlemen who argue that the Union building is of small use to the campus are within their rights. Of what use is a student social center when there is always the library? THE ARTIC FIGHT At last after two years of persistent effort Capt. George Wilkins has succeeded in crossing the north pole by airplane. This trip, which had little of the glamour that heralded the flight of the Bremen across the Atlantic, was one of the most daring flights in history. Flying over ice wastes, as far from help if anything had gone wrong as any trans-Atlantic flier, with the terror of the unknown added to that of the sea, Captain Wilkins and his pilot have accomplished a triumph of courage, competency, and persistence. The route which Captain Wilkins took opens up a new way or short cut around the world. The distance from New York to Japan is really shorter by going north across the Arctic rather than west across the Pacific Ocean. Steffanson calls the North Pole, the "classroads of the world." In a hundred years, perhaps his prediction will come true. It takes such an epoch-making flight as Wilkins' to make the world open its eyes to such possibilities. JOIN THE DANDELION ARMY The University Kansan says if all the able bled students at K. U. would turn out and work, the entire campus could be rid of dandelions in The Kansai's call to students for volunteer service is not without precedent. The college bleachers on McCook Field had to come down to make way for the new classrooms, and many were in the University did the tearing down, and the young women served meals at the school. Kansas City Star Another convert has entered the ranks of the gold digging army. With the above paragraph the writer of this article enters the battle against the doppelbrenn As a result the Kansan extends a cordial, though conditional invitation to Mr. Thompson. If the University authorities see fit give a holiday for the purpose of indicating the dandelion. And if Mr. Thompson can borrow a itcher knife, Or, if Mr. Thompson cannot borrow a butcher knife, if he has enough spare cash to buy one. He is invited to come to the campus upon the day of the big war, if any, and help dig dandelions. And we will extend to him the glad hand of fellowship, and see that he gets the biggest sandwich at the barbecue afterward. We always did like Mr. Thompson. INCONVENIENT CITIZENSHIP Recently the Governor of Kentucky signed a bill making it mandatory on the judge to release at her request any woman from serving on a panel in any court. The new law is the result of a four year fight led by Virgil Everson, chivalrous young bachelor and a member of the state House of Representatives. It seems rather significant that women are so ready to cast aside the "equality" for which they have waged such a long fight. It is something of a sacrilege to the name of that dainless leader, Carrie Chapman Catt. In the granting of complete citizenship and franchise to women the duties as well as the privileges were transferred. Some people believe jury service not so much a privilege as a duty. They have a conception that should be the rule of each citizen, which is, that fully to appreciate and use the Democracy of the United States each one must understand and practice both the privileges and duties given him by such citizenship. The women of Kentucky, if they are responsible for the law, have shown their unwillingness to abide by the discomfort brought upon them by the exercise of their citizenship. Such an attitude is not creditable. It should be condemned by all serious thinking people. What the Kansas Editors See Dwight Hilles, New York's actuate Republican committeeman, coily watches the carriage with almost 100 other men in his wings. Eventually he will probably ease into the Hoover fowl. Meanwhile, what does he want? A chair with the floor and his wings. With the field split between Hoover and the Allies, balance of power is held by Mellon and Hilles, who control delegations from Pennsylvanian and Delaware. Here's a guess.
