Discouraged Student Relates Polar Dash Across Mt. Oread Covered by Snow Galosh-Deep
This would happen on the thirteenth! I've always believed in sign. And just because I didn't have an 8:30 my two-beloved, thrice-accented roommate made off with my galabas before I was even aware that this guy was a kid and had behaved self upon us. And snow, a bit out road without galabes.
I only fell twice and that's three times less than the man in front of me who so kindly but unconceasedly made tracks both wide and deep, in which I saw that they were walking more than half with snow. I walked in front of three postively inclined young men, but I noticed that they had used all their adjectives up by the time I was able to see between the Memorial building and Dyche museum. By that time, however, I was immune to all the winds that blew. I was beginning to enjoy life when the boys who live on down there ran out of clothes. I reached Orened Onruel (much the worse for wear) just in time to witness an aerobatic performance on my part. I pulled my hat over the left eye and looked up at the home stretch for my first class.
Students Make Appeal to Lawrence Citizens in Behalf of Porters
United States Mediation Board Asked to Consider Rights of Workers
A committee of 100 Lawrence citizens, students and faculty members, to appeal to the United States Mediation board for a consideration of the requests of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters in their controversy over the use of foxhouses organized by Clarence O. Senior, c27, and Paul Porter, c28.
The purpose of the committee, according to Senior, is to mobilize public opinion and to bring it to bear upon the Pullman company and the United States Mention board, to the end that a "living wage" and better working conditions may be secured to the Negro porters.
Miss Larkin Director
Publicity for the porters' brotherhood is directed by Margaret Larkin. A. B. '24, who was also public director for the strikers in the wooden mills of Passaic, N. J., last year. "The Pullman Porter," written by James Hunt of the union and a narration of the working conditions of the porters, which has recently been issued by the brotherhood, was written by Miss Larkin. She has also written a play "El Christo" which was produced in New York last summer.
Senior Makes Statement
Besides Senior and Porter, others who have taken an active part in the movement here are: Prof. S. A. Queen, Prof. Seba Eldridge, and Prof. Donald Kemp, president of the Kansas sociology; John F. Willmott, assistant secretary of the International City Managers' association; Harold D. Smith, of the League of Kansas Municipalities; author of Public Management and Kansas Municipalities.
In discussing a statement issued by the committee, Senior said: "The public has as much right to be interested in the problems of labor, as either the employing class or the labor leaders. We believe that the differences between the Pullman company and the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, representing its Negro employees, can be settled permanently on the basis of fair treatment, each of the privileges of a free man, entitled to all the privileges of a free man, including the respect of others and to feel his own self-respect.
"The current wage system of the Pullman company necessitates the tipping of porters, a practice undemocratic and therefore on-American, and unworthy of the ideas which motivate American business." The brotherhood will enable this master-slave relationship to be abolished.
The porters' union has been in existence only since August, 1925. It was organized by A. Philip Randolph, a leader of the ACF, a widely-recognized magazine.

Three mongrel pugns who had no sense of direction but a decided realization of the freedom of expression, grumbled marrily about my feet as I marched past the law steps and Uncle Jimmy Green with a satisfied feeling that all was well until Van Callee came in to check on him. Jimmy poured its content upon me. "Slap-stick!" I murmured bitterly as I shook myself.
