WHAT'S THE IDEA?
A general opinion which seems to be prevalent in Lawrence and the surrounding territory is that the 31 fraternity fides, about whom no much has been said and printed, were arrested early Friday morning.
This idea is false and the University and the Greekletter organizations have been unfairly accused. The men were picked up on suspicion and were detained at police headquarters, no charges being filed against them. This is altogether different from being arrested and jailed as was reported.
The only arrests of University men that have been made during Hell week activities were those made in the case of the three persons arrested by the Douglas county authorities for chasing a yellow cat. That arrest was in a separate affair, in no way connected with the detention of the 31 men.
The University must refuse to tolerate unfair charges. Careful investigation would have thwarted the expiring of the story but careful in investigation was not made. As a result, the University, the Greek organization, and the plagues will hear a stigma which might well have been avoided. Truth in advertising is a good policy to follow in the new columns.
ANSWER TO THE ILLINOIS LETTER
"The time has come," as the Walrus once remarked, for the Kannu to meekly how its head to superior knowledge and broader experience. It feels properly spooked and promises never, never to do it again. In the hope that its readers will absorb the valuable information, and profit accordingly, the Kannu of the two "gentlemen of Illinois" (with apologies to Will S.) has been reprinted in full on another part of this paper.
That its palpule may no salient points in the valuble instruction contained therein, the Kauant wides to contain a few of the more salient one.
Firstly—We cannot understand the interest of the people of Illinois in better and clearest beer. On our recent trip to that state we found the beer both better and cheaper than any we have beaten before. Perhaps the boozerier wars simply the extra sport and spice in Illinois.
Secondly—Most people in Kansas read the news emanating from Chicago and therefore know what criminality is.
Thirdly. Our own recent investigations show that it takes an average of 10 years to apprehend a criminal and convict him. (See: Leopold-Lobb, Full-Sinclair, etc.) Our Illinois intelligence tells us that 90 per cent of criminals are over 25, and that the average age of criminals is 29; the average age of the 90 per cent, then, must be about 30. Following out this inferential deductive syllogism, the average criminal must commit the first crime for which he is convicted when about 20 years old. The Kanan always did like statistics. They move things so nicely.
Fourthly, fifty, slightly, seventy—The Kansan would really like to ask for proof for this long list of assertions, did they not realize that only ignorance of the most unimportant variety prevents its survival. Its illim contributions are probably recognized as authorities by "those that know."
Eightly- Outside of the fact that
the Kassan editorial, "so-called" plainly stated sentiments quite contrary to the opinion attributed to us by our contributors concerning the heating into the mold of Geni, the criticism is well founded.
In only one statement must we differ materially with the IIII gentleness. Edgar Allen Poe is not the only creative artist produced in this period, but John P. Gamble have created several very artful laughs quite recently.
"It, R. I. wishes to say in reply to her norning friend, once at K. U., that, so far as her literary style is concerned, she is like that great proponent of the Romans and above grammar. But if that explanation still leave him hitting dolcely with his head over what M. Orca is coming to, let him he informed that the very last offer from those absolutely not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not only allows, but encourages, the not

Campus Opinion
Editor Daily Kansan:
After reading the story—"Beautiful Refuse to Present Revue for Theater Goes," appearing in last night's Kaman, and then comparing the girl with the woman in my own, I am led to believe that perhaps the Kaman has been some what misinformed or did not have all the information before the publication of the story.
Since I was indirectly connected with the Kannan advertising relative to the proposed "appearance of the Queens," I feel that in justice to Mr. Marrero, house manager of the thunderstruck threater, I should submit the following:
Monday afternoon, Jan. 30, I called upon Mr. Harries at the Bowersock院 for a meeting to address an interview to appear in the Kansas of Tuesday, Jan. 31. During the course of our conversation, Mr. Harries cannot impaired whether, in the past few weeks, he had an interview on the Hill to his having the 1928 Jayhawker Beauty Queens in Revue at the Variety theater. No audience was present, and I answered that I could not be taken as an authority but that I no way can object, provided the women were willing. To this day, Mr. Harries still has an office and of the group up at and they seem for it, however I will withhold advertising until I find out more about it." No advertising response from the Beauty Girls—"22" was run in Tuesday's Kansas.
This would indicate that contrary to the Kansas story, the woman, or the woman, yet I am led by the Kansas story to believe that all advertisement was done without the knowledge of the plans
However, after consideration, I quite agree with the editorial in Monday's Kansan implying that the appearance of the Queens would not have been for the best. As to faecal emissions, the data above—Robert W. Herzog
We read an article today; a socalled editorial, in the Daily Kansas, for January 24th, entitled "We humbly add to the lettering of our friend, few misstatements of fact, and more charitably speaking, errors in this article which is probably from the pen of a daunderhead, to which I am grateful, the foster of Greek, Cattle-hunburdy or more probably of Social Science, since he seems to know nothing about the

Thirdly—We advise a superficial glance at court records. Our own recent investigations show that slightly over 50, of the major crimes are committed by persons under twenty-one and under twenty-five. Also, under twenty-five, the average age of the criminal, is slightly over twenty-nine.
Fourthly—We wish to inform you that the elders are not pointing anything at anything. In other words they are too busy doing the hide-and-go-seek with the law themselves to point their fingers at anything.
Fifthly. The fact that there are many pooled-solutions does not prove the existence of a problem. Remember that the Schostachie of the Middle Ages argued as to how many should dance upon the point of a needle.
Sixthly—You admit that there are not very many at variance with the law in your statement, "why should you be so angry?" Does the introspective commit crime? They are the thinkers, are they not? Seventhly—Your argument concribes the sweet influence of guild ambition. Eight—You admit that the SYSM works very nicely for the average cliff; that is that it has no effect on your business. Your problem, then, is how to hurt the Genius into immaculous conservation, in showy destroy Genius or at least, so, to fitter, it enns to make it

We won a debate last night against our old rival, "The Anglies." Perhaps one may be purported and University is willing to pay for such victories. Have we reached the point where we are willing to have anyone who takes advantage of our trust, intelligence and self-control to win a decision? Are we to be concerned over whether or not it will be an inter-colllege contest is a representative of K. U., and as such it seems to me that the show needed qualities.
Editor Daily Kansan:
I can seen only two possible explanations of the work of our debaters last night. Either they were "maken up" or did not believe, and mis-interpreting facts, or they actually believed in the fallacious economic theory and antagonistic politics. On other case it seems to me that their work was not a credit to the University. We heard the ancient and well-worn election in slightly less worn phrases and defended with a fervor verging on hysteria. We learned that exports from certain Latin-American countries are at least five years old, and that therefore the people of that country are better off and love to have America's Wall Street bankers elect their president. The real policy was in accord with mortality and international law—the case being quite frankly built on the grounds that the United Fruit Company and

The Middle Ground
"I've been all over town, looking for shoes." What a common expression! The shoe man hears it every day — and some days, many times.
WALK-OVER has never attempted to go to extremes in the matter of styles, excepting only when fit of style is absolutely certain. We know the importance of fit—a delicate matter in nature. Fit is the first basis of style in any new thing WALK-OVER creates.

millions invested in Latin-America. We saw the people of these countries pictured acclimate and vicious persons from abroad who were hacking their fellow citizens to pieces and who need, if not a nudged cell at least a kind ubre to keep them alive.
We are satisfied to hold the MIDDLE GROUND (a safe position) in the matter of style.
