FRIDAY. DECEMBER 2.1927
The Elkridge hotel, last night was the meeting place of alumni of the University of Kansas who gathered at the so-called athletic arena here.
MORE ON THE SAME SUBJECT
It seems strange that the alumni of this institution should take upon themselves the task of attempting to straighten out a condition which even the Board of Regents deemed wise to leave to the University administration.
In its recent visits to state institutions this body purposely avoided the University of Kansas, thereby showing its implicit faith in the governing bodies located here.
Such faith from members of the alumni organizations might prove much more effective than the action now being carried on. It was two members of the atumul association who created a silt, not long ago, by the writing of an open letter. As have been editorially said by another graduate of Kansas, the effect of that letter was enough to kill all school spirit that might exist.
The constant turmul created by the continued meetings of these interested graduates is doing little to remedy conditions. Such action draws fire from many universities, in William Allen White speaking editorially in the Emporia Gazette way that any attempt to force Chancellor Linden to hire a high-tech coach for the football will win K. U. if it accrumbles.
The alumni associations do not appropriate the University funds, neither do they control the athletic department.
If the Board of Regents saw fit to leave the settlement of this situation to the University, then the alumnus associations which attempt to settle it for us, are assuming responsibility far above the necessary heights.
It must give the British community real satisfaction to know that he has licked the King every time he mails a letter.
THE NICHE OF THE MILITARY
Writing in a recent issue of the Survey, a World war veteran gave this illuminating story of inexperience in the World war: "Visualize with me, if you will, a certain road in the Argonne. It is 4 p. m. on Sept. 25, 1918, and my battalion will be in the front line when the great attack starts at dawn tomorrow... We need replacements urgently, and on the afternoon of Sept. 25, twelve dark hours before the "jump-off," we get our team. We find that they may two months' training, . . . One of them we find offering a sergeant twenty francs to explain the bolt action of a rifle. Yet these men in twelve hours will face a situation where their lives are at stake and where only those men who perform automatically the first principles of military procedure can hope to survive."
Upon such tragic situations as the one described by the veteran rests the basis and the reason for military training in the colleges and universities. By systematized courses the technical training of actual combat is superficially covered so that the student may be in command of a critical situation if ever he is called for service.
And still there are factions which champion for the abolishment of military training, arguing that it develops a spirit of militarism. At the same time these factions advocate the abolition of obligatory attendance at chapel on the ground that it fails to develop the proper spirit of religion. Then the objectionable element falls in one and succeeds in the other.
One student complained the other
play that his theme was damp—missed
at night and due in the morning.
THE NEW RADIO COMMISSION
The news which came out last night concerning the withdrawal of licenses from many broadcasting stations throughout the country is indicative of the work and progress which the Federal Radio Commission is making. For several years the air has been filled with miscellaneous noises from stations throughout the United States that are financially unable to broadcast or are interested only in the promotion of the business of the company by which they are financed. The entertainment value is practically nothing but the interference set up is sufficient to ruin the programs of the stations which are offering good programs as well as entertaining.
Last year the commission withdrew a number of licenses, as well as cutting down the power of many stations that were raining the reception of stations which were better or equally as good. Changes in wave length were made in order that more stations could be tuned in on without interference. This step in itself was sufficient to bring about the realization of the benefit of the commission. Now, with the new step which the commission is about to make public another better year for radio is assured. Bailed down, it is a survivals of the fitter. The stations which are doing most for the entertainment and benefit of their audiences are the ones which will stay. The unit and desirable stations will leave and will no longer be the base in the listeners-in.
Besides the present elimination of the undesirables, however, the step will have another threat of equal importance. It will mean that the remaining stations, which will number nearly four hundred, must keep up an schedule of programs that are good in every respect. Excellence in broadcasting, no matter of what type is concerned, will be paramount, and from now on, the person on the receiving and will be able to sit in consignment listening to a program that is enjoyable without the voodoo of
Win a football game and get out of school half a day, win a war and get conversation; proving that it's the title things that count.
CAN YOU COME TO A BRIDGE?
And now we are having bridge tournaments. Yea, even as in times of old fair knights fought in their gay armor for the favor of fair ladies, thus our gentlemen and mails of 1927 fight for bridge honors at the first national tournament of the American Auction Bridge League in Chicago, among others. Along with their other studies, are taking five hours of bridge may have opportunity to prove themselves for deer old Alma Mater.
Why not? Kansas is on her honor and in bridge honors mean so much. Things may even go so far as to organize a Big Six, Seven, or Eight. Then an auction bridge would be as in- collegiate as could be.
Just one more thing to live for don't you think?
Say, Mr. Theatrerover, how about a little hoof and yodel show sometimes soon?
Kansas may not have the best roads in the world, but it grows the healthiest girls in the world.
The poor woman whose four husbands all testified against her in a bigamy trial has undoubtedly lost all belief in man's faithfulness.

You doubleblend had heard her other times. If that is true you probably heard her each time when her numbness grew grander. At least it has been true with me. But this time at Lawrence her program was so different from the grand proac. In Lawrence the whole program brought the thought, "A program of hilbruben." Any one of her songs would have been more generous too. She was more generous in extra numbers than I have ever known her to be. I could not help think she bad behavior. Youth—and Youth was generous in expressing its appreciation. Some say CallieCariest is bearing that love. You cannot rather than and that her program this year is chosen to "murse" her voice. I would rather believe, musically, that she has more pleasure from each a program than she gave last week and is surviving to please the average listener, rather than for fans to give the ultimate loss of her voice.
I have just read your "As the Carr in" the daily Kansas of Nov. 17, in a sympathetic, appreciative and tellent, criticism.
I have heard her a number of times—have reported her concert three times, the first one that night at Laverne. I enjoyed her ringing the last time best.

William Boyd and Bessie Love
is a romance of a West Point cadet and
one of the commandant of the
academy.
It is a remarkable picture insnatch all the silencers were shot on location, William Boyd attended the academy for two months in order to get the filming done. He was also forced but he have for the filming of the story. The story works in very well with the routine life of the villains and this is as well as an entertaining picture.
As to the acting, credit must be given to Boyd for his excellent performance in the part of a small town hero with plenty of concern over his achievements. Bessie Love is only interested in the prominent figure in the picture, she detracts nothing. Hugh Alman, taking the part of Boyd's rival and son-in-law, does not give too good looking to detract from the picture. The remainder of the act is good. Much of the credit goes to the cadets for their aid in the picture.
"The King of Kings," a Ceael B DeMille's dramatic spectacle comes from a 2015 program daily, at 2:10 and 8:10. The production has just completed a year's run in New York and carries a high-quality orchestra arc technician.
It is a story of Christ which has been proclaimed a masterpiece in photography and acting. Although the subject is treated with the utmost reverence, it features thrills and spectacular features, than any film made up to the present. The scenes of the earthquake and the crucification are said to excite the carrot rises in "Run-Hur" and the opening in "Sea in the Ten Commandments".
Top prices are $1.45 for the evening and $1.19 for the matinee. It has been positively announced that it will be available in this velocity again before 1929.
Work will begin next spring on a new men's dermatology at the University of Minnesota.

This mammoth steam turbine capacity of 208,000 kilowatt of 600 horse power) will be installed at the State Line Geocentric Company near Chicago. The striking contrast between unit and the group of vacuum cleaners, and many vacuum cleaners, and many general Electric makes both.
THE great Persian ruler gazed from a hilltop upon his vast army of a million men. It was the largest army that had ever existed. And he turned away with tears in his eyes because in a hundred years all trace of it would be gone. That army was a symbol of power, destructive and transient.
Today in one machine, now being built in the General Electric shops, there is combined the muscular energy of two million men. This great machine, a steam turbine, is also a symbol of power—a new power that is constructive and permanent.
Its unprecedented size, a record in construction of such machines, is a pledge to the people that the electrical industry is on the march, ever on the alert to supply plenty of electricity at a low cost to all.
