MONDAY, MAY 23.1997 TWILA SHOEMAKER What is perhaps the most commendable record ever made by a woman at the University has been made during the past four years by Twila Shoemaker, a senior. She has earned grades of straight A during her college career. A still more remarkable thing about Miss Shoencker's record is that, in addition to her perfect efficiency in class work, she has achieved success in almost all phases of extra-curricular college life. She is a winner of a K sweater at athletics, she has been a member of the rifle team, the class hockey team, and the volleyball team. She is a member of eleven organizations, in most of which she holds an office: Mu Tau Alba, honorary Greek and Latin fraternity, El Ateneo, Spanish society, Kupa Phi Methodist university's fraternity, W. A. A., Alpha Sigma Nu, honorary physical education fraternity, Plaumbta Theorem, honorary educational fraternity, the Rifle club, the Kansas Outing club, the Weekly Foundation, Eta sigma Phi, and Phi Bela Kappa. She has taught on days at Haskell Institute. It should be noted that she is a member of no social sorority. More than once she must have sarcified an evening of sport in order to accomplish well what she had set out to do. Yet her record shows that she has not "hibernated" behind a study lamp. With all of her outdoor activities, she has shown keen ability to place first things first. Such a record as Miss Shoemaker's has been made almost unnoticed. It would be fitting if some award corresponding to that of "Honor Student" among senior men could be granted annually to the senior woman with the finest record. Doubtless, Miss Shoemaker would be the winner of such an honor if it would be awarded to the class of 1927. It looks like a fellow traveling all the way from New York to Paris could at least take a pair of pajama with him. Two more weeks, and then school will be out. Students will depart for homes in all sections of the state and to spend their long anticipated vacation months in work or in play. SELLING K. U. TO THE HIGH SCHOOL YOUTHS During this vacation period, whether he realizes it or not, each youth will be advertising his University by his life in his home community. He is the idol of all the high school folk, and one who is respected by most of the older people because he is a college man. All eyes are on him, so that they may know whether they will care to send their boys and girls to the same institution. University men who go out to rush high school graduates for their respective fraternities create either a good or a bad impression, according to the manner in which they conduct themselves while they are in the community. And the athletes who go out in search of eligible material for future variety teams succeed only to the extent that they are able to impress not only the boys themselves, but their parents. We have the best of opportunities to advertise our Alma Mater in our home communities during the summer months. Then it is that we can interest others in the University, if we live up to the ideals expected of us. We can boost our school. We can get the men and women we want if we impress them favorably; and we could set no firmer task for accomplishment during the vacation months. WHAT A WHALE OF A DIF FERENCE A FEW GAL-LONS MAKE! It's all over now; Linbergh arrived safely in Paris. And with gasoline to spare! After the excitement of the crowds has died down and they fumble in vain to predict what the success of the trans-Atlantic flight may mean the most significant fact that remains is that the flight was a success. Think of the many failures! Numerous and Coli; where may they be? Lost perhaps for the lack of sufficient fun; we may never know just why they failed. But the signal success of Lindbergh is credited by himself chiefly to the foresight to carry enough gasoline for the trip. He knew that so many previous failures had been due to this one factor alone; he decided that that was not to be his error. in Paris Saturday Lindbergh landed with fuel to spare; the answer to his cautious planning. And yet they call him "the flying fool." POLITICIANS PREFER BUGBEARS The third term bumbar is creeping up over the presidential year horizon to take its place alongside the Catholic bumbar. During the coming year these two famous political pelt will be halfhoaked and made over by the megalomanical politicians, while the good folks over the countryside will be subjected to long-winded orations about meanning elphorns as "two-term tradition," "papal influence" and "allegiance to the constitution." The real issues, if they are any, will be intentionally forgotten, or else mentioned very gently and without fervor. The reason, of course, for all this talk about nothing is the fact that these notorious hackers will serve as effective weapons in the hands of the political greney. The politicians well know that the masses of American voters seldom graze the real issues of a campaign. Consequently 'bait' that will appeal to their imagination must be thrown out to them. It will develop in this campaign that the people will either favor or oppose a Catholic for president. They may not be deeply concerned about the disposal of Muscle Shoals and the issue of public ownership involved about a high or low tariff, about foreign policies, because those things are beyond the bounds of simple imprintation. But they usually are concerned about the religious feature of the campaign because religion comes within their own share of thinking. So will they vote accordingly. On the other hand, they may feel that it is perfectly permissible for a president to serve three terms, or vice versa, and will cast a vote on these grounds, but they refuse to let such complicated issues as taxation, foreign debts, or agricultural relief settle the question for them. If the American people had passed the elementary stage of political thinking there would be no necessity for the politician to resort to such superficial issues as Catholicism and third term tradition to get out the vote. Real issues based on fundamental policies of government would suffice. A SENSIBLE CHIMPANZEE Science has again shown that on occasion members of the ope family may be more sensible than their brother humans. Last week Fatima, a year-old chimpanzee from the jungles of South America, was taken to the movies. And Fatima was quite obviously bored! Prof. Harold E. Jones, of Columbia University tried the experiment to discover the reaction of these animals to motion pictures. Fatima, however, exhibited much more interest in the human beings about her than in the There will be a meeting of the senior class Tuesday, May 24, at 7:50 p.m. in Ferras hall.

Miss Laird will be in room 306, Fresher教室, on Wednesday, May 25, from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. Fraser W. J. SCHOENNAN, Chairman, Department of English. ENGLISH MAJORS: movies. Human beings enjoy motion pictures of humans. Therefore, a chimpanzee should take delight in a movie of the jungal folk. Professor Jones seems to have decided. At least, the film shown to the chimpanzee consisted of a screen melodrama in which monkeys, tigers and other wild animals acted in their native surroundings. How often will a human being, bored at the so-called entertainment, sit through the whole of it rather than attract undue attention by bearing! Not so Futian. She, being too much complacently for this type of amusement, picked up her burp four times and attempted to walk out, "No pleasure here, so why stay?" she must have said to herself in proper apelike articulations. More honor to the chimpanzee! Campus Opinion The Dove Mistreated The Dove Mistrented Editor Daily Kansan: very truly yours, John R, Dyer someone owes the Dove an apology, n the Saturday Journal-World and he Sunday Kanson I was quoted as aying that The Dove has a distinct place on the Campus provided it can be properly supervised and regulated. I can imagine no statement less acceptable to The Dave. My defense is that I said neither that nor anything remotely resembling it. Supervision cannot be done, and a capable bird but it certainly would not be The Dave as we understand it. --the personnel department of the university.
