WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 5.1927 Down in Mexico the reactionaries are the revolutionists. They're going back to the old style in presidential elections. THE HIGH MOGULS MEET The high moguls of Republicanism in America have gathered in Washington to consider ways and means of getting together on a candidate. The Republicans have a natural majority. All they have to do is insure victory in any campaign is to hold their own voters. The Democrats, on the other hand, must pick up disgruntled members of the G. O. P, to gain the hurries. For this reason it is essential to the Republican peace of mind that there be no split in the convention. The followers of the Elephant do not like to have too many strong candidates, for it leaves too great a number of dissatisfied members in their own ranks. That is why the famous "chose" of Coolidge left such a bad taste in the mouths of the arch politicians of the party. Coolidge had the nomination sewed up. With the President running for re-election there would have been no chance of acrimonious debate and the accompanying possibility of hurt feelings. And so the leaders breast sweet nothings in each other's ears at the Capital city. It seems little is happening. The committee members are 49 desirous of party felicity that they are doing nothing, rather than taking the chance of getting on a bandwagon, only to find that it has a broken axe. The headline, "Schools in Wichita Are Closed for Famiguration," finally has solved a mystery for us. We always wondered what was wrong with the chemistry building; now we know that being closed is all it lacks. TEMPORARY INSANITY "G-r-r-r-r-r. I'm crazy. I can go out and shoot people, commit robberies, and commit anworm. The law can't touch me. I'm crazy. Don't be afraid, though. Of course I'm perfectly sane now, but I can easily be temporarily insane at any time I wish." Exaggerated, of course, but not without some sound and conclusive foundation. How many habitual criminals have been freed by pleading temporary insanity? How many newly developed alienists have proved to be the hub of the criminal court? Sometimes the most convincing evidence cannot stand the onslaughts of psychology, horn mired glasses, and specialists in that disease known to the courts as dementia praecox. Undoubtedly alienists have an important place in the courtroom. We do not do that. Undoubtedly temporary insanity is a potential alibi. We do not belittle it. We might want to use it.

Orend most any time during October, while the dedications, football games, and conventions are in session. GIVING WITH GOOD-WILL It has long been the custom of the Y, M. C, A. to have a financial drive every year at this time in order to raise money for its activities. The purpose of the Y, M, are laudable, and necessary to the University. Besides bringing noted speakers and other men of national and international prominence to the campus and furnishing students who lack financial aid with positions; the Y, M, does innumerable other things for the advancement of the school. The Y, M, C, A. belong to everyone, and not merely to the members of the cabinet. That is why we should all give with good-will. The benefit we shall gain will amply reward u. Levine had an interview with Mauelin the old day. Probably he was learning how to keep his pilots from quitting work. UPPERCLASSMEN NEEDED TOO "University tradition" to some students is strictly limited to freshman discipline. To them it means the wearing of the little blue cap, courtesy to the Kansas flag, and the pass- glad of the tense on initiation night. But the upperclassman who thinks thus has lost sight of the true meaning of tradition. He has forgotten that tradition is not something written in a freshman K book, but an intangible something which can be perverted only by love for and loyalty to the University. One of the fine things which have come down to us in a traditional way is the rally on the night before a football game. That it has in the past served its purpose, no one who saw the Jayhawker whip the Tiger in 25 will doubt. But rallies can not thrive on freshman voices only. A balanced ration is paramount, a ration to which all classes must contribute. The first rally is Friday night. It promises to be short and snappy, but to make it a success the student body must be on hand. Those who are forgetful will be routed out by the flying squadrons. Those who are enthusiastic for a football victory will be there to boom of their own free will. Despite Jesse Adler's dictum that men are becoming style-conscious, we maintain that the only time the average father of a college daughter becomes style conscious is when the monthly bills arrive. for the game you'll want your knickers refreshed— Don't forget!

Today, the contestants in the World Series face each other on the Pittsburgh diamond before the eyes of 45,000 spectators. The weather will be fair and warm, according to the weather report. The Yanks meet the Pirates this year to decide the winner of baseball's crown. They will fight two battles on the Pirates' field, and then they will carry the battle to New York. Each team is confident of victory. The Pirates depend upon their pitching staff. The Yanks rely on heavy bats with the Babe and Lou leading the attack. Campus Opinion "Hobo Day Should Be Discontinued." First, Hobo day has outgrown or drifted from its original purpose. This can be easily seen if one views its history. In 1923, it had its origin. At that time its purpose as an animal trainer was duly appreciated by the students, as could be seen by their desire to make the day a complete Hobo Day, an annual event in the life of the campus, should be discontinued. The university authorities have set a deadline for all despatable points in rendering a final decision on the question of its relocation. This is a reason why it should be abolished. $1.00 We clean and press men's suits for Lawrence Steam Ldry 10th & N. H. Phone 383 holiday and to consider classes dismissed. In 1924 a similar display of enthusiasm was witnessed. But that display did not impede the freedom could be seen. This spirit of abuse of pevilege grew as the years passed. The Hobsda day of 1925 was marked by an attack; it was that a disregard for law could be clearly seen in some of the actions of the student hobbes. A demeaning act was carried out by robok, and the merchandiser stolen was used as ammunition in a mook battle at the hobo concoction. It battle had been made easier than a ground piece was ruined by the poor aim of some "wobbly" as he threw hurtoward at those in his possession. Day has come to symbolize vandalism. Second, aside from representing laxnesses, Hobo day is an entirely unexcusable waste of time. It is often called "a bane" because it can be "cut" a clause. A curriculum already disturbed by other activities should not be hindered by such an "institution" as the Hobo day has proven to be an entirely unexcusable and unnecessary. H. P. --for Fall By Dean Swartout An audience which filled the channel of Praser, greeted the first concert to be given by members of the Pine Arts faculty, when Miss Elsie Bean, Mrs. and Karl Cormierstein, presented a program of much interest. Miss Bear, who is well known by other previous performances that season, strengthened the opinion already formed of her ability as a concert performer. She also worked on the classic, romantic, and modern tensions in piano rendition; she displayed ability both in technique and music. Each number was worthy of special comment. The unusual final group played by Miss Bear offered executive novelties of the supernatural, the powerful, and the noble, while almost zero freakish in construction.

Mr. Kuerstainer appeared in excellent form in two groups; one, the self-commanded "Bird of Concerto" by Bichch which was given an intelligent performance, and the most outstanding of Mr. Kuerstainer's repertoire. Mr. Kuerstainer played with decided assurance and pulse and achieved much appreciation for his instrument. He was accompanied at the piano by Dean Swenthorth. Plain Tales From the Hill --is Drewey students are at a disadvantage in Chemistry II lecture classes. Experiments performed before the class in which gases are collected and exploded keep those who participate from catching up on their "shut-eye." During the last 8:30 lecture period one fellow on the front row, self-trained to go to sleep immediately after such explosions, dozed off, and room was rudely awakened to find that Dr. Hamilton P.
