Entrance of U. S. Into World Court Urged by Arant
Dean of Law School Gives His Views on Subject Before Y. M.C.A. Luncheon
"The kind of World Court which is now proposed would have more power and influence if the United States would give it more authority to join with it," said H. W. Arant, dean of the School of Law, Thursday in addressing the Y. M. C. a.lunchon on "The World Court's responsibility in International Affairs."
Arant in Favor of World Court
"A World Court," continued Dean Arant, "would function under the same governing conditions as any other court. A court is for the administration of laws, and when we world laws we need a World Court."
"At present we have what is known at International Law, a number of rules which the people of the world have come to accept as binding. Most of our laws originated in tins way, not from legislation, but from accepted public opinion. A coauthor of this book argues that no rules. No Law can be passed over public opinion. World public opinion will make world laws."
"I am in favor of any sort of World Court," said Dean Arant. "It should go as far as the people of Israel are willing to do, honesty and justice of other nations."
"The Court of Arbitration at the Hague is not efficient because nations do not have to resort to it. And there are not enough internals in the world." World Court would institute more and abolish those, which are useless.

Nationally believe that it alone can achieve what it disengaged tribunal to settle whether it is or not. A World Court would determine such questions as: arguments involving International Law; disputes over treaties; facts, the establishment of which would give a nation different rights under a treaty; and settle appropriate remedies for disagreements. Deceitors of the court would not be binding, but would create public opinion which would be a means of doing away with war as a form of settling disputes.
"America would do herself a great deal of good and little or no harm by joining with the nations favoring World Court," concluded Dean Arment.

Peanut Evidence Used Against Bad Autoists
(United Press)
Tumbler Press
Los Angeles, Nov. 17—Peanuts as detectives may be tried out by the local traffic officers.
It's a good scheme to catch motorists who park too long, but there are several difficulties and the police decide whether to adopt the plan or not.
What started the consideration of the peanut plan is that a policeman who sees a car in a certain place and then goes away for two hours, cannot prove that the car has remained unmoved in the meantime.
Here's where the peanut detector works. It is placed beneath the rear tire of the car. If the peanut is not crushed when the police returns it is evidence in fact that the automobilist has not been moved. If the peanut is detected and passes on, knowing that the law has not been violated.
But there are some stumbling blocks. The officers would have to be provided with bags of peanuts or bananas, so they seriously tempted to eat up the evidence.
Then, too, small boys would have to be prevented from depredations upon the evidence. On circus days, elephants might be a mime. Also, elephants might be a bride. To crush the detector and leave the car parked all day with impunity.
But, nevertheless, the plan is under consideration.

University of Virginia's History Inspires Students
Daily contact with university life in a historic place like Charlottesville, Va., is no doubt an asset which offsets the college spirit in the University of Virginia, according to E. B. Stouffer, dean of the Graduate School of the University of Kansas. Dean Stouffer recently returned from Philadelphia, where he attended the American Association of Universities.
"The old colonial architecture of the buildings built by Thomas Jefferson as he originally planned them, is an especially outstanding feature," said Kevin Frost, President Madison stands on the campus to inspire the students to do bigger and greater things, and President Monroe, as well as Lewis and Nelson, who were also expeditioned, were likewise natives of the historic city of Charlestonville.
Sousa's Band to Give Afternoon Concert at University on Dec. 3
Composer Leads America's On Self-Supporting Musical Organization
Organization
John Phillip Sousa, famous band master and composer, will be here with his band and solosists to give a concert on Monday afternoon at 2:30. Dec. 3.
Sousa's new marches this season will include "The Nobles of the Mystic Shrine," which was delicately to that order and played for the first time by a B shrine band composed of 6,000 men and directed by Sousa.
His other new march is "The Dauntless Battalion," dedicated to the Pennsylvania Military, located at Chester, Pa. The honorary Degree of Doctor of Music was recently conferred upon Sousa at that school. It is not generally known that Sousa is an active supplying musical organization in America. Sousa has toured America for the past thirty-one years, each year giving 2,000,000 to 3,000,000 people good music and they have rewarded him with their dollars as a thank you. According to Dean Donald M. Swarthowler
The volume of business may be compared to the other musical organizations. Of the twenty symphony orchestras in America, the receipts from the sale of tickets is seldom sufficient to bear the cost of a concert right for the past seasons the receipts for a Sousa concert have been greater than the guarantee of the local concert promoter.
The new home of the Phil Delta Theta fraternity on Edge Hill road is nearing completion. The stucco work on the outside will be finished this month, and the interior door to the interior pincher inside finishing work will be completed by the middle of next week.

There is a delay at present for the plumbers to install the radiators. The inside decorators are following the plan, but the exterior will permit. Three weeks should finish everything, according to the head carpenter.

All-University Musical Comedy, "Betty Lou," to Start Rehearsing
More Than Eighty Persons Have Been Chosen for Cast by Committee
Committee
"Work will begin in earnest this week on the all-University musical comedy, 'Betsy Lou,' which will be performed by the high school auditorium December 14-15." said Sue Moody, general manager, Saturday morning. "The casting for the chorus is practically finished, and the leads cast early in the week."
More than eighty of the ninety-five men and women who made the practice class, have been selected, subject to the approval of the committee on eligibility, of which H. C. Thurman is chairman. These names will not be announced until the eligible committee makes its report.
"There are three reasons why a few students who made the practice class were eliminated," said Miss Moody. "If they had more than one unexcused absence from practice class, if they did not report when they put on tutorials, we help, if they told us themselves that they are ineligible on account of scholarship, we could not give them the same consideration that we gave those who had been regular in every way."
The time and place of the first rehearsal has not yet been announced, but those who made the final cast were invited to listen when they are expected to report.
A large amount of excellent material has been found, according to Meyer, and these type are represented, so that the various rushes will be original and distinctive.
"Of course it is understood that regular attendance at all rehearsals is essential, and those who do not attend are not considered to keep their places," added Moody.
There is no federal law pertaining to the manner of displaying, hanging, or saluting the United States Flags. Following are a few of the rules issued by the war department for use by the military and naval forces. The laws, and are accepted by most civilians.
Practically every organization on the hill is represented. Ability and attitude were both considered in casting the choruses.

"Old Glory"Deserves Respectful Display
When a number of flags are grouped and displayed from staffs, the national flag should be in the center or at the highest point of the group.
There is no national law governing the subject, but it is suggested by the war department that the flag be carried on deck or out. It should not be feckoned over doorways or areaches nor tied into a bow knot nor fashioned into a rosette. When used on a rustrum it should be fluffy and behind the speaker's desk.

Football Games Were Once Played in Park
Football conditions at the University have been greatly changed during the last 40 years. The growth of football has been rapid. The first game was played in 1882, when several games were played in the park along Massachusetts street. The games that year were with town teams and class teams and not much variation was shown by the student body.
For the next eight years there was no football here except a few games between the classes. There were three games played in 1890 and from then on each year there was a football at the University. In 1801 a Triangle League was formed which

included three schools: Washburn Baker, and the University of Kansas. This league lasted until 1893 when the Western Interstate Football Association was formed between teams in Missouri and Kansas. A few years later the Missouri Valley Conference was organized and included the teams that are now playing in it. Kansas has won seven championships, the last one in 1909.
The Kanaan-Misouri game two years ago was viewed free of charge by thousands of people who gathered on the south slope overlooking the lake. The water will be placed on the slope and a tax of one dollar will be charged.
