THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1920 Entered as second-class mailmaster September 17, 1910, at the post office at Lawrence Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1897. HAVE WE LOST ALL HONOR? With the discussion of the topic, "How Much Honor Is There Among Students?" at the forum of the Y. M. C. A. tonight, there may be a movement started that will place honor on a higher pedestal among us. There seems to be a general feeling on the campus that the personal honor of the student is now at a lower bldw than it has ever been before. One of the Hill's officials said recently at a small meeting of instructors and students: "The thing that has impressed me above all else on this campus is the utter lack of honor on the part of the student body." Approval of the statement was manifested by one member of the faculty, who shouted "Amen!" nudely. And by the discussion that followed, it was brought out that the statement expressed the feeling of almost everyone present. Probably it won't more than ever before; but certainly there is plenty of dichonesty. We read of students who have suffered severe, but not too severe—penalties for laxiness in connection with borrowing books from the library. Petty stealing is a constant menace; one instructor is reported to have lost more than two hundred dollars in property stolen from his office this year. Cheating in quizzes and telling falsehoods are two sins so common that they are severely any longer considered a reapplication to the student who commits them. From this University group must come many leaders of the future. The greatest need of the today is for honest and intelligent leadership. Can the University of Kansas supply them? TO SAVE ATHLETICS "A university must preserve a balanced ration. It has no more right to exploit a good athlete than a good musician or a good writer. It has no more right to subside one." These words of Chancellor Lanney, given in an interview yesterday, sound the timely warning to a danger which many have been attempting to minimize, yet which is evident to thinking leaders throughout the nation. The Chancellor displayed a fine breath and balance. No one could interpret his expression as advocacy of abolition of intercollegiate athletics or curtailment of its usefulness. Yet, when men like William Allen White editorialize on "Bye-Bee Football," it is time to examine thoroughly the direction our over-seasonbusiness is taking Although these eminent men do not wish to abolish athletes in our universities, lord will be the cry that such is their intent. They are merely echoing the warning signal. A peak has been reached in our frontworship of sport, not for the sake of sportsmanship, but for the sake of "imperialism"—the same kind of imperialism that has led power powers to contravert justice in its own name. By sensing the import of the warning, by acting upon its advice, and by returning to a same balance of educational activity, including a wholesome amount and type of athletics, the ultimate complete disruption of our educational programs can yet be averted. TREES Then said Jehovah unto men: "I will set in the desert the green fin study geology and natural resources of the United States. Then said Jehovah unto men: The pine and the box together shall be. Where the fragrant boughs of the eider swing Skalt dwell all the foul of every wing; Than shall not destroy, when the nations fight. A live good for food or pleasant sight; For this is the law of your earthly snow. The type of the field is the life or man." —Ivar Weleck Grissom in Outdoor America. OUR PUPPET MUSSOLINIS Hail the new educational dictatorship! A definition of socialism in the Forum Magazine by Dr. Henry Flary, biology instructor in a District of Columbia high school, in which the question was asked, "Is not the industrial civilization which we have created a Frankenstein which has made itself our master?" was to Maj. Gen. Amos A. Fries, chief of the chemical warfare service of the U.S. army, a damnable horry which warranted summary removal of the instructor. So, in the name of the American Legion, of which he was recently elected Washington commander, he demanded that the Washington board of education remove Doctor Flury because his definition was "only in a slightly different form the statement of the communist that our government is bad." Fortunately for Doctor Flury and the already somewhat beminished name of education, the board disregarded, military intolerance for schizophrenic freedom. Its liberality, however, was somewhat vitiated by its lame apology that it would "not tolerate any attentance or communication to the public" of Doctor Fary's economic view and the fact that it did not凳凳 him until such subtilies as Governor Hunt of Arizona, Senator Franklin of North Dakota and Sieular Lewis had come to his defense, and the Washington post of the Legion had repudiated General Frey' stand. If this were only a rare occurrence it could be overlooked but the deplorable and inductable truth is that these instances occur with such frequency and regularity as to make necessary yearly additions to Upton St. clair's critique, "The Goosefoot." How long, one wonder, is education to be made the scapegoat of publicity-seekers, religious bigots and "Americanism" families? London has voted against the American waffle after a year's trial. Suddenly the Londoners couldn't touch it. Barrett Hamilton has been elected football captain for the 1927 season. It was a wise choice, based on a deserved recognition of consistent performance on the playing field. Whether or not he leads Kansas to an impressive string of victories is relatively unimportant, however much we love victory. If under his influence the team next year goes on to the field with an intent to play for sports' sake, and with an overwrought desire to win as a purely commercial or advertising venture, he will have been a worthy captain. THE NEW CAPTAIN A gift of $1,000 has been given to the student loan fund of Kansas State Agricultural College by a graduate college in the home economics division. The "milkop" is the bane of college, and a speaker at the inter-fraternity conference recently. Go ahead, call him all sorts of names, but if you think you can bust his ego that way you've all wet. Who was it said the Hill would shoke, or something, if it did not have a full election and class of officers? A University Rifle club has been formed at the University of Nebraska. The club will probably be held at the National Rifle Association. There will be an A. I. E. E. meeting Thursday evening, Dec. 2, at 7:30 in Marvin auditorium. This meeting is especially important for under- clasemen. W. L. IMMER, Chairman. There will be a meeting of the student branch of the A. F, M. E, at 7:30 this evening, in room 210, Marvin hall. A. H.

PHI SIGMA: On Other Hills --n study geology and natural resources of the United States. University of Minnesota alumni have recently published four Gopher songs in folio form. These songs were made up of a context in 1925 for strumming on guitar. The cover of the folio is also the ornament winning picture of the content. Prizes were awarded to alumni as well as students who entered the contest. From now on only one thousand men will be allowed to enter Harvard University each year, so that they will be with the hirtered award only. The University of Wisconsin has a Dolphin Club. To be eligible for membership a person must be able to awain three times and do three different dives. The library of the University of Minnesota now contains one of the few Robert Katieton Lovain Bibles, dated 1545. Robert Katieton Lovain lived in the reign of Francis I and was the royal printer. The Latin print is very cool but extremely legible. The volume is in two books. The geology department of Princeton University gave what is believed to be the first college course on wheels last summer. A party of professors and students traveled about ten thousand miles in a Pullman car. The Missouri State Teachers' Association will erect a $8,500 building at Columbia. This will mean the location of the teachers' organization in Columbia. Eighty-six cents a year is the contribution of each person in the state of Indiana toward the state's educational system. One hundred thirty times this amount is spent on automobiles annually. Professor Roderick Prattic of the University of Ohio believes that 90 per cent of college students are dumb when it comes to general knowledge. The University of Chicago has an intramural horseback tournament in progress. The old time game has changed, and we have commited on the up-to-date campus. Mid-semester examinations at the University of West Virginia were so strenuous that the whole staff of the paper "knuckled off" for the week. Newest ideas in collegiate wear for men were given at a style show by the University of Chicago. An orchestra used the necessary rhythm for the models. The Army and Navy staged their annual affair before 110,000 at Chicago, and put off the decision to next year at the end of a 21 to 21 tie. TEACHERS!
