Fickle Woman Changes Tune as She Returns to Long Hair; K. U. Lasses Desire Femininity
Oh, that obbled hair—it gets in your eyes, and makes you swear; it looks like skin, it tickles worse; she's sobbed her hair—hair she's all reno matter what anybody else did." If it because she is tired of it or can't think of any new styles to arrange it? Perhap, but that is bazzing a guess. The wind blows it about on the Hill? We can only shrug our shoulders at our inability to solve the mystery.
That characterizes the attitude of the short-hairmed mista's long hair has burst into our mind with a feeling that all boys are timeless; long beardlovelie looks, big ears that artfully conceal shingles that are no more; the cry, "I can't take my hat off, my hair is in press?" That characterizes the attitude again by the male population.
Why has fickle woman changed her mind again? One young lady in the library was boarded to remark, that she thought long hair so much more femininely. She did not take the personal person who a few days ago "was never going to have long hair again

One of the chewers claimed that if he had bad mouth cancer with what he had handled another 25 sticks.

Should we throw our hats into the air and rejoice or mask our faces in sorrow? Walk into the library some day and you will be surprised to find such a number of sleek-looking, well-groomed, long-tressed heads studiously bowed over books. Or better still, stand on the campus and count them. You'll notice that he it will come over you as you ponder the matter, that woman is exercising her right preoperative—that, of changing her mind.

White's Editorial Stirs Educators to State Opinions
Much Diversity of Beliefs Shown by Interviews About Football Situation
Situation
William Allen White's recent editorial in the Emperia Gazette, "Bye Boy Football," struck in a vulnerable spot if the swarm of protections and defenders from Missouri and Kansas educators is to be taken as a criterion.
Football has grown to such proportions that it is overshadowing education, resulting in an attraction of students who are not interested or scholars, the editorial said.
A parallel between the University of Kannas and the Kannas legislature was drawn by Mr. White. "There is a reason to take action," college men should not take exercise, but there is every reason why neither should engage in public gladiatorial combats before packed arenas. This is because college are beginning to realize this.
"The tail has begun to wag the dog
furiously this season, and this humbling fact has at last come home to the dog."
Athletes' Time Monopolized
Inestimable harm is caused by sport monopolizing the athlete's time, the chancellor believes.
In an interview Wednesday morning Chancellor Lindley, while not going as far in his criticism of intercollegiate football as Mr. White, declared that it was a peril to education. "The tendency of the universities has been to place athletes to the fore to a too great degree. It is true that the player of the world's most potent athlete is today being exploited," he said.
This occasioned a spirited retor from Dr. Stratton D. Brooks, president of the University of Illinois Medical School, to benefit the benefits of the resulting gate receipt.
"What teachers teamwork and co-creation better than playing on a game with people interviewed in interview published in the Kansas City Times Thursday. "Whereas all the men at Missouri did not make the team, they and their hopes," Doctor Brooks said.
In advance his arguments for the continuation of intercollegiate athletics, he declared that football was an incentive to scholarship, citing the example of Arthur Bond, M. U. C. football captain in 1925 who was elected in Beta Kappa and was chosen as scholar from Missouri the year.
His assertion that the scholastic standing of football man was higher than the general standing of college students, however, is not borne out at the University of Kansas. A comparison of the standing of football man with the University average standout in football team ratio is 25 point lower than the average, 3.15. The football team also ranked lower than any of the other athletic teams, some of which made comparatively high averages.
Divers' opinion "prevents"
Among other educators the opinion
has been that divers have a
possession with the ability of foofball has
inaug a slight majority.
Charles A. Lee, state superintendent of schools in Missouri expresses his opinion as follows: "We have been devoting time, energy and enthusiasm to building up a system of competitive athletics for a chosen few who need health education the least, instead of having a complete program of health education for all the students. We also need high school students get the idea that the football spirit is the real school spirit."
Diverse Opinion Prevails
President F. D. Farrell of the Kansas State Agricultural College in a letter to the Star line up with Doctor Branks against Mr. White's attack on football. President Farrell believes that football will remain on a high plane in college circles, that football does not occupy too big a place in the college or that it not necessarily fits in. Farrell is of the opinion that football like anything else should not be carried to an excess.
A fine arts club has been organized by the faculty of the University of Oregon and the women of Eugene, Orc., who are interested in fine arts for the purpose of aiding in the campuses and facilities of the university constructed on the campus as a memorial to the late president of the university, Prince L.

Drug Laboratory Aids in Analyzing Apples for Arsenious Oxide
The state food and drug laboratories of the University is assisting the federal laboratories in examining apples that are to be exported from the United States for arsenic, according to Werner, in charge of the laboratory.
Examination of Imported Fruit Shows Poison as Result of Spraying
"Some of the arsenic with which the orchards are sprayed," said Professor Werner, "may remain on the apples unless it has been thoroughly washed. Some orchard workers apply to determine whether they contain arsenic in a sufficient quantity to be harmful. The United States standard stipulates that there must not be more than 1,409 of a grain of arsenic oxide to each pound of apples."
Dr. W. J. Howard, medical officer of health for the city of London, in his annual report says that arsenic in appreciable quantities has been detected in some of the materials. The only applies bearing indications of arsenical deposits were "Jonathans," samples of which were submitted to the public analyst who found that they contained 1-700 of a grain of arsenious oxide to each grain of arsenicals used and that they did not restrict the sale of the affected apples.
Pajama Parades Awful.
Protests Denver Dean
The men of the school in advancing their ideas on the subject stated that there was not a minst in the university or any other place who would say they "couldn't" of "shouldn't" have such a parade.
If men have their night-shirt parades, why can't women have their pajama parades? ask courts at the University of Denver.
Strong opposition, however, was brought forward by the dean of women who said, "I think the idea is so stupid. I would never cool such a thing."
The president of the Pan-Hellenic council, on being questioned, concurred in the belief that women would much more benefit from a greater trade than stage one of their own.

Chancellor Lindley Indorses Activity of County Clubs
Is Simply Organized Effort to Give Kansas People Full Knowledge of School
Chancellor K. H. Lindley, indoering the activities of students in county club work, made the following statement in an interview this morning:
Penile Should Know School
"Since going to college has become the fashion, it is natural that high school students should find it a live topic for discussion. And what is more natural than that students in various areas of the country would like to impress the advantages of their own school on pupils of the home high school? All of this competition and discussion, if properly conducted with mutual consideration for other schools, is good for all concerned. It is especially helpful in bringing to the home community the information on which a course or a school may be wiser need.
People Should Know School
"The county club is simply an organized effort to carry the story of education to the people of the Kansas University to the people of the state. It is their institution and they should know about it."
"While the university welcomes an increase in enrollment, our chief concern is not with number, but with quality. We may know the merits of K. U., and that capable high school graduates go to some good college. College chubs carry the message."
"Of course the good record and the favorable impression made by K. U. students in the home community are the most patient recommendations of
Schools to Graduate 16,000
Schools to Graduate 16,000
This statement followed one made a few days ago in which the Chancellor said:
"If you are grateful to the state and to K. U., for the opportunities enjoyed here, what finer service could there be than to carry the message of information and inspiration to the boys and girls of your home county?"
There will be more than sixteen thousand graduates from Kansas high schools this year. For every one of these graduates who goes to college, he or she will receive a scholarship; who will not go, for lack of the formation and encouragement.
The general conversation Tuesday,
Dec. 7, will begin at 10 a.m. Chau-
cerland family will speak. Martin
will be the chairman of this con-
versation.
