SUNDAY TENNIS A MATTER OF CHOICE SUNDAY, MARCH 13, 1927 With all the discussion of the automobile as an evil, and the carelessness of students in their mortals, still there is no recreation provided for their Sundays. Granting that they go to church every Sunday morning, which is not the rule, that takes care of only one hour of the day. Since there are no theaters open on Sunday in Kansas, there is nothing left but riding, walking, reading or study, all of which are part of the weekly routine. For even the tennis courts at the University are closed to use on Sundays. The tired business man everywhere has his golf links. They provide his greatest source of relaxation on his one day of rest, the tennis courts would be the same sort of boon to students who enjoy out-of-door exercise, yet have no time for such indulgences during the week. WHAT TO SING Surely everyone is entitled to observe his day of rest in the manner that pleases him host. Whether one stays quietly at home to sleep or to run, or exercises for an hour or two on the tennis courts, should be a matter of individual choice. The fact that some persons play golf or tennis on Sunday should not offend those who do not consider it a day for sports. There is no plan to force anyone to take part in Sunday games against his will. The unsuspecting high school graduate has visions of coming to college and hearing thrilling songs about the old alma mater on every side. He is ready to give all his patriotism to his university, and, as a result of reading "collegiate" stories and seeing so-called movies he expects a real old rab rah atmosphere. And instead of a "death old Hah- haval" air, he finds his fellow colleague singing popular jazz numbers to death in quick succession. Perahu it happens because the college has only a few n比较传统ly traditional airs, or little material for songs which it could make traditional. The University of Kansas, however has an excellent song source. J. C. McCanles, "Mac," has already become known for his admirable efforts to give the University more of its own songs. Recently, he has written additional songs, and presented them through his band. Students always welcome anything new. Their quick adoption of the latest jazz indicates this. The latest jazz song is short and soon appears as another appears, but a fitting college歌 may live until it becomes one of the traditions that make colleges. The Hill is waiting to see who will be our first martyr to the cause of overstudy. ALMOST HUMAN For some reason, probably because it contains so many pictures, most college students like to read the National Geographic Magazine. And as we read, how often we think, while looking at the pictures of foreign and strange peoples, "They look almost human, don't they?" Almost humoral From the time when every individual was a potential enemy, up through the time when every man not of the tribe was an on- my, until today when our enemies are those not of our nationality or color, the outlander or foreigner has been something different from ourselves. He has been of a different species. We were and are, in our own concents, the humana. When the other shows characteristics something like our own, we say, "Almost human," in the same way that we remark on the chimpanzee which has learned to use a knife and fork. As our "consciousness of kind" has become broader, we have learned that the human characteristics are more widespread than we before realized. Whether the other fellow's skin is black, brown, yellow, or white, he is born, loves and dies, eats, sleeps, feels pain and joy, and all in all is much like ourselves. It is the gradually awakening consciousness of this which is causing the first attriums of attention to our fellowman, the fellowman we once thought was "almost human." It is this consciousness which it is bringing about conferences such as the one held this week-end at the University. It is this consciousness which is making us realize that it is the fact that a man does live, not how he lives, which is the criterion of his humanity. In the past we have lost sight of the fact that a yellow m伞 eats food as we do in our too close attention to the fact that he eats it with chopsticks instead of with a knife and fork. Now we are slowly coming in the realization that it is not the how but the what, which is the real test of likeness. Spring growing weather will soon be here, the forecasters say. Good. It is to be hoped that the ivy plants around the new Union building will take advantage of it. CAMPUS ADVERTISING The Kensan takes pleasure in or nr mouncing that it has found a solution to the problem of University finance and presents herewith the plan for the approval of the administration and the students. At negligible expense the department of buildings and grounds could erect a permanent signboard on the campus in a prominent position, preferably near the Fourteenth street entrance. Space on this board could be sold to the publicity managers of Perry Grainger, Fictor You and other musicians as well as to the various student dance managers. All other campus advertising could be prohibited. The income derived from the advertising space thus sold should make it possible for the University to raise its salary scale, complete the auditorium and build an athletic field house. Another advantage of the plan as outlined is that the eternal complaining of the Kansan about the sigma and posters on campus approaches would be directed against the administration rather than the individuals or organizations now responsible for the various pieces of advertising. Reaction to an editorial printed in the Kansas two weeks ago shows that there is demand for a new road up the south slope of the Hill to the east of Blake hall. THE SOUTH APPROACH There is a large residence district that includes a group of student boarding clubs, fraternities, sororites, and homes of University officials in the district south and south-east of the campus. In order to reach Oread avenue, it is now necessary for the residents of this district to drive halfway around the campus over the road that enters the main campus thoroughfare at the Commons. The route of the proposed cutoff would lead in a natural roadway between the west hall of the Watkin's estate and the lilac hedges east of Blake Hall. The descent south from the Hill is steep, but with proper grading the road could be made less steep than the Fourteenth street hill. One of the finest views in Lawrence is afforded from the road site. The cost of cutting, grading, and paving the road would amount to A new road, 350 feet in length, would cut off four blocks. An additional advantage would be the avoidance of two street crossings. OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Vol. VIH Sunday, March 13, 1927.

Phone 653 RENT-A-FORD Drive It Yourself $8,000, according to figures in the office of the superintendent of buildings and grounds. At the present time, the limited appropriation from the state does not permit the constructing of the road unless other necessary improvements for the campus are neglected. However, it may be possible to open the road soon even though the paving is not made until a later time. In more than a square mile of territory bounded by Tennessee, Fourth Michigan, Seventh streets, and their extensions, there are at present no through streets. The one-hundred yard cutoff would be of great advantage to this entire district. 916 Mass.

Graff The performance of “Le Philo- s掌, sait le savoir,” a French comedy in five acts, which was given last night in the Little Theater, was a tribute to the French women, years. Lies in criminol, and gene- temen with knee-breeches and powdered wigs, recalled the days of Louis XV. The audience would not have been surprised at any moment to see actors begin dancing the minutem. Kenneth Cornell, who has had three years experience in French dramatics, interplied well the role of the M. Vanderk, a generous-hearted merchant, who is best with many problems on the day of his daughter's wedding. He was easily supported by Frances McCormick and Delphina Smith, as his daughter. Carl Tebble, who took the part of M. Vandoren's son, had his lines well in hand, but put very little life into a part which should have been an impetuous one. Carl Niemeyer, as Antonio, the confidential clerk of M. Vandoren, said that the acting of both Mr. Niemeyer and Mrs. Cornell contributed toward upbinding a genuine French atmosphere throughout the play. Juanta Slawson was captivated as Antoine's daughter, and Annette Leonard played acceptably the part of the proud marquis. It is a difficult feat to put feeling into roles spoken in a foreign language. Yet in "Le Philosophie sans la servi," this was done in almost every case. The tendency to recite the lines lonelyly was much less noticeable than one might reasonably expect. On Other Hills The University of Missouri freshman ride team won the National Rifle Association team match for freshmen, which was fired in competition with nine other university freshman teams in the United States. A score of 2868 out of a possible 3,000 was made. OF 3,500 students in the college of the University of Iowa, the only two who received "all-A" grades were two working their way through school. A new field house for women is being constructed at Ohio State University. The cost will be $25,600. -Fountain Pens- Conklin Endura, with perpetual guarantee Waterman's Ripple Rubber, a point to fit any hand F. B. McColloch Druggist 847 Mass.
