Battered on second-deadly mail master Peter J. Greenberg, who was killed in the raid, Renna, under the net of March 9, 1840, was found dead on Saturday and on Sunday marrionite by strayers from a local farmhouse. The untimely death of Renna, from the proof of her identity, has not been ruled out.

TUESDAY,OCTOBER 16,1923
Cotton is going up. That must be the reason all-wool suits are so much higher.
DOLLARS GIVEN
It wasn't raining. It was drizzling.
The sort of moistishness which takes
the corrugations out of marcels and
the crease out of trousers. Pluvius
was smiling. Dishearmingly.
Time: Yesterday evening.
Place: The Commons.
But the group of about fifty students and faculty members, gathered about the festive board at the Commons was not singing the blues. Far from it. For they were starting a drive for a greater University Y. W. and Y. M. C. A.
Talks were made. But they were net the usual talks. They smacked of an enthusiasm for the work which pervaded the whole group.
Vows were silently swayed. But they were not the usual vowes. Having sworn, each and every member of the C. A.s' financial campaign force resolved to keep his vow and to home the bacon in the form of money.
The financial campaign of the two campus Christian associations has now started. The workers are demonstrating loyalty not only to the ideals and principles of Christian living but also to their University. The least that the student body can do to co-operate is given when called upon to give.
Dollars given are dollars gained What will your profits be?
To tell of the value of the Christian associations to the University and to recount the good they have done on the campus is to tabble of their significance. The work done by Miss Russ and Mr. Shultz is common knowledge.
To flunk a student in the School of Religion would not be true to the spirit of brotherly love.
WHAT NEXT?
A Philadelphia builder advertises that all houses he is erecting are being wired for radio sets.
Genius will out!
Consider the house-hunter in the year 1550. In the evening paper he will carefully peruse the classified columns for residences with all the latest improvements. Garages will be taboo. He will hunt for the owner advertising close proximity of his house to the nearest of several municipal airplane landing fields.
Perhaps he'll have a "billup." In that case, the nearest helium-gas filling station for his balloon will serve as a talking point for the landlord or the real estate salesman.
If the prospective tenant or buyer is an own-your-movie fan, he will desire to know what facilities are available for exchanging films at one of several corporations' suburban branch houses. Instead of dragging the family off to the neighborhood movie or to an upnown show, he will switch on the juice and depict Fairless Do-grams to the children before sending them to bed.
Radio phones by 1950 will be antiquated.
The man of the house will deplete the family treasury by spending lavishly on outfits for thought-transference which will eliminate the static!
Someone had heard that "Pippa Passes" who is now waiting for the vigars or a funeral notice.
HALLOW HALLOWE'EN
The all-University Halloween party, the evening before Dad's day and the K. U.Argie game, should be held at the University of the University, stapled body,
It is pointed out by those in charge of the details that any organization on the campus giving a party the night of October 26 is interfering with the plans of the committee.
It has been requested, but not demanded, that no other functions be hold which will conflict with the time of the University Halloween celebration. The whole student body is expected to be in the gymnasium to welcome to Lawrence and to the University of Kansas visiting fathers and guests from Manhattan.
Let's show them that we're three thousand five hundred strong.
A rolling bone gathers no A's.
ALL THAT FLICKERS IS NOT GOLD
At a rough estimate, 40,000,000 Americans are more or less frequent patrons of the motion picture theaters. The size of the audience which can be classed as "film fans" is said to run into seven figures.
It is obvious what a weapon for evil or an instrument for good the screen can be.
In the last two or three years a noted improvement in the quality of the celluloid plays produced by the California corporations has been made. Few monostratiles like "Foolish Wives" have been put on the market. But still the film play is not up to what it should be. This fact is evidenced by the activity of the state board of censorship. The means of compelling the production of better plays is in the hands of the public.
An ignoring of poor quality productions will react upon the exhibitor. This jolt will be carried successively to the distributing corporation and to the corporate producer.
The public knows what it wants
it must, however, let the motion picture manufacturer know that it knows
Edward Bok should be apprised of the fact that the dove of peace can't be caught by putting salt on its tail.
CO-OPERATIVE LIVING
CO-OPERATIVE LIVING Four years ago the first co-operative house was organized at K. U. This year more than fifty women students are living in co-operatively managed homes, owned and sponsored by the University.
The women in these houses do all of their own work. By systematizing it, the work has been reduced to one hour a day for each of them. The average monthly expense for each is $25. This includes all the cost of operating the houses as well as the paying of the interest on the money borrowed to buy the houses and a percentage of the principal. It is expected that the entire debt will be paid in ten years.
But the purpose of those who made the co-operative houses possible was not only to reduce living expenses, but also to give the women an opportunity to make school homes for themselves. This purpose has been realized.
While many of the women in the houses are entirely self-supporting, their scholastic standing has been consistently high. They have also been prominent in Hill activities.
But the finest record which these women have made is that they have learned to live together in harmony, dominated by a spirit of democracy and a consciousness of the dignity of labor.
Medical students have no monopoly on the study of bones. Any news probably knows more about it than hey, or just as much.

COURT COURTESY
Even with the increased number of tennis courts at the disposal of students this year, the demand is always greater than the supply. Almost every afternoon, a number of players may be seen loitering around the courts for perhaps an hour, waiting for a chance to play. The players who arrive at the courts first are rightfully entitled to two or three “sets” without interruption, when they attempt to keep the court all afternoon they are doing an injustice to players who have not been fortunate enough to find a vacant court. Here is an admirable opportunity to display sportsmanship and courtesy.
Shall we call the man a scholar or a grade hound who makes a point of quoting outside references unsolicited at every class session?
By their swapper sticks ye shall know them—the Senior Journalists. But this doesn't always hold true, for a number of the carriers of those emblems of great wisdom and dignity have been not a Little embarrassed of late by such questions as "Whatna carrying that stick for?"
... For style, buh? "Who d'ya think you are, a policeman?" "What hard do you lead?" "Avo that law, with that huffed cane"
Plain Tales From The Hill
But let it be known to all University students that these same little sticks signify that in a few cases they will enter the field of Journalism.

On Other Hills
The suggestion has been made to upperclassmen of Columbia University that they try ignoring the freshmen, as a new form of laziness instead of the usual method, i.e. by shouting at them or embarrassing publicity by being paraded around the campus wit Paris garters showing.
John N. Van der Vries, for many years a professor in the department of mathematics of the University, has recently been appointed manager of the Northern-Central Division of the National Chamber of Commerce, a trustee of ten states, according to an article in the "Nation's Success."
Mr. Van der Vries was appointed to the faculty of this University in 1901 as an associate professor of mathematics. In 1914 he was given a professorship in the mathematics department and held that position
A practice carried on by the senior men of Yale University, that has now become a tradition, is that of dividing into groups of two or three, and each group making informal calls on the men of the freshman class. The purpose of these calls is to welcome the new students and to give them any information of which they might be in need.
The president of the sophomore class at Columbia University has announced that no form of hazing will be exercised against any freshman in university who will present a sophomore with a cream-colored Roamer.

Ticket Scalping
It has been called to the attention of the Committee that certain students have been selling football reservoirs secured thru Student Entertainments. There is serious violation of the terms under which the tickets were purchased.
Tickets meant for the purchasers own use and sold to him at the greatly reduced price of twenty-five cents as a ticket. All students who body have been sold in a dollar and a half apiece to persons who would otherwise have paid that amount to the Athletic Association. The information of this will be apparent at a glance.
Feeling that it may have been done innocently up to this time, we issue this warning before the Valley games violations will be dealt with severely.
The hearty co-operation of the student body is invited in handling this situation since the very future of the Student Enterprise Ticket hinges upon our ability to suppress the practice of scaling.
Every purchaser of a Student Enterprise Ticket has signed a statement that the ticket will be used only for himself and a number of his family.
All purchasers of football tickets are urged to buy them only at the Athletic office and the booth at the Stadium entrance.
JOHN R. DYER, Chairman,
Student Enterprise Ticket Committee
