SUNDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1926 ATHLETICS VS. STUDENT OFFICES THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN The political situation on Mt. Oread has taken a new turn with the announcement Wednesday that no man will be eligible to try out or participate on any freshman or varsity athletic team during the period that he is a candidate for or is serving in a student office. This rule, adopted by the athlete coaching staff of the University, went into effect Nov. 20, but will not apply to athletes who already hold offices to which they were elected prior to that date. The situation precipitated by the interrupted fall election is primarily responsible for the new rule, criticism of which rose to such a pitch that several football men who were running for office withdrew their candidacy after the Kawasaki-Kansas Argie game. The election was postponed until after Thanksgiving, the end of the football season, only to be abolished altogether, with the exception of two or three offices, by the Men's Student Council Wednesday night. Now that there will not be another general Hill election until spring, the parties may be able to perfect their systems to such an extent that the controversies in past years may be reduced to a minimum in the new semester. With all athletes inclusive for student offices, unless they prefer to give up positions on athletic teams for the sake of participating in politics, the election promise to be much more efficient. To fill all offices without any athlete will require a careful combination of the Hill to find men who are qualified for the positions, as well as ones who are well known on the campus. The athletes, instead of indulging in political electioneering, will have more time to devote to athletics and studies. This is a distinct boon to the letterman who has no time to devote to conservation student activities; his popularity has already been established through his athletic work. He needs no student activities to make him better known among his classmates. Seen in this light, the new rule will he an improvement in the political situation. Non-statistic students, as well-qualified as an athletic brothers but less well-known on Mt. Oread, will he given a chance to do something for their alma mater which would not have been possible under the old order. Qualifications rather than popularity needs must become more prominent in future elections with the athletes in eligible for offices. DO YOU LOVE TO DANCER? DO YOU LOVE TO DANCE? Miss Woman Student, do you enjoy dancing with the 'mum whose pin you wear?' If not, be careful lest you take in step that may mur the happiness of your life in future years, and cause your name to be dragged through the divorce courts. Mr. Man Student, is the woman whom you favor with your truest affection a good dance partner? If so, rejoice; your future will be one of happiness. Give her pin now. But if she is not a good舞娘, cast her aside for one who is more skilled in the art. This is the advice Dr. Magnus Mirschfield, a famed psycho-pathol- THE ELFIN COMPOSER A most delicate quill you have, A more delicate hold.

"Nobody should marry a person with whom he or she does not enjoy dancing." This is the admonition of Doctor Hirschfeld in a series of lectures on the diviere evil, in which he states his belief that a large percentage of divorces are caused by a man's love for dancing with another woman, and vice versa. If the students of Omdred are to profit by the advice of the Berlin psycho-pathologist, they must make of the dance变性 a laboratory in which to rapidly their future life's happiness. Each man who tags in for a dance can be sized up as a possible husband, and accepted or rejected in the light of the pleasure afforded by his dancing companionship.

THE ANTI-CIGARET LAW The action of Mayor Emerson of Kansas City, Kansas, in regard to the strict enforcement of the anti-cigarette law in Kansas has again brought up an old argument. According to Attorney-General Griffith, the cigarette law is the most loosely applied law on the Kansas statutes. Whether this is because the authorities have been unable to enforce the law or because they have not tried to do so is impossible to say. The fact remains, however, that a state should not have a law on its books which is not being enforced, no matter what the cause may be. No doubt it would be beneficial to the public health if it were impossible for anyone to get cigarettes in the state. But at yet no one who has wanted cigarettes has been unable to obtain them. It would seem from the outside that the long controversy over the repeal of the cigarette law has been without basis. So far, the women, for it is they who are raising the greatest cry against the repeal of the cigarette law, have won out. But what have they won? Has any unified and direct action been made to enforce the law which has been kept on the books with so much difficulty? Apparently not, and it does not seem as if any were to be made in the future. Every so often someone like Mayor Emerson suddenly comes to the realization that there is a law which should be enforced. So he rises up in wrath and starts a drastic campaign to wipe out the cigarette evil in his community. Seldom any results are gained from it, the matter is soon dropped and nothing more is said. The dealers on selling cigarettes and apparently everyone is happy. Attorney-General Griffith was right when he issued his challenge to the legislature either to enforce the law or to repeal it. There is no room for unenforced laws on the Kansas statutes. To prison by proxy and then self-pardon—that's a Twentieth century innovation in Democracy by Gov. W. W. Brandon of Alhama. In shifting the blame for possession of liquor from his gubernatorial self to a negro servant the governor has, besides ameliorating an embarrassing situation for himself, assumed the judicial function of determining the intention of the electorate—a most question upon which the august supreme court is still at sea.

But the governor is not the ungrateful cuss that many public officials are. He remembers his friends—he has annunciated that as soon as the negro is sentenced for him, he will pardon him. The principal difficulty is that justice may be delayed (as mean) that the proxyprisher may not be sentenced until the governor's term has expired, in which case he must languish in prison until the governor is reelected on a platform of vindication.

Daily Kansan: The Negro Character in Americana Literature, by J. H. Nelson, Department of Journalism Press. Professor Nelson, of the department of English, traces the origin of the niger character as a fictional type and follows the history of the type in our fiction, drama and balladry from Colonial times to the present day. More than the Indian or the frontiermen or the Creole, the niger has been used as a literary apparatus can literature, and this book, as a record of his treatment, affords a significant chapter in the study of our literature. Professors Lehmann and Witty, of the School of Education, have made a study of the play differences between white and negro children. They discuss how different kinds of children engage more commonly in "playing school" than boys, and that negro children participate in this form of play more frequently than white children, though both races decline in this kind of play. The clusion drawn is that playing school is a compensatory mechanism as of the nature of the day-dream or fantasy, and that it is indulged in by girls offender because of their more aggressive behavior. Children because of their cognition of an inferior social status. Playing School; A Compensatory Mechanism, by Harvey C. Lehman and P.A. Witty. An offprint from the Psychological Review of Nov. 1925.
