MARCH 19, 1923 Oxford professors are deploring the fact that the institution is becoming "Americanized." And we always thought that Englishmen were too slow-witted to play poker! A JOB With commencement eleven weeks distant, the college senior has started on his hunt for a job. If he is typical of his kind, his financial status is low, and he is just a bit worried about the uncertainty of immediate employment. Quite often he tries to list all job possibilities, but usually he omits one—a sinister but indisputable possibility. Never since the years of 1917-18 has the prospective graduate had more reason to include on his list this one potential job. Today armies mobilize and nations stand tense and ready to spring upon each other; the college graduate may find a ready-made job waiting for him. The suggestion is a gloomy one, but young men everywhere may as well face the thing squarely. Their future is uncertain; how long they may follow their chosen occupations they never know. For those germs of war, greed and savagery, still live. ADVERTISING K. U. The times are out of joint; even fish stories aren't what they used to be. Harding went fishing the other day and didn't catch a thing. Once again the basketball teams of the high schools of the state have visited the University and competed for a coveted championship on the Robinson courts. The annual high school basketball tournament is only one of the many incidents of the year for the University student. It is an event, long to be remembered, for the visiting high school players. The annual court competition for the state championship is one of the best advertising agencies of the University. It directs the eyes of high school students toward Mt. Orcad and the impression visiting players take back home should bear fruit when enrolment week comes next September. Each of us should keep our eyes open to discover other ways of advertising the University. Keep in touch with high school students back home. Fill them so full of the University of Kansas that when they receive their diplomas they will say, "Now for K. U." THE GRIDIRON DINNER To see ourselves as others see us, to have our eccentricities brought to our notice and revealed to our friends in public, when the revelations are made in a spirit of good-natured fun and wholesome caricature which leaves no sting, not only affords our friends great安慰 but is one test of a man. The ability to take a gentle "razing" gracefully and to reply in kind without bitter feeling is the mark of the liberal-minded man. The success of the Gridiron Dinner idea is based upon this willingness to roast and be roasted. The Gridiron Dinner of the National Press Club is one of the bright spots of the year at Washington. Cabinet officials, senators, and men prominent in the state affairs, step upon the grid and see themselves as others see them. The Gridiron Dinners at the state capitals are equally successful. Gridiron Dinners given by college journalists at universities in other states, have done much to bring students, faculty members, downtown business and professional men, and prominent men of the state together in a closer relationship which reacts to the advantage of all. The first Gridiron Dinner at K. U. will have a similar result. A Texas woman shot her husband when he came home after 1 o'clock and refused to tell her where he had been. Even after a jury of married men fries her, her mind will never be at rest for she will not know then where he had been. THE OPTIMIST The kind of fellow who is in love and is making D's is the kind of fellow who reads the weekly magazines for their correspondence school advertisements, looks lonely at the picture of the young husband and wife entitled "I Knew you Would be A Success," opens the back of his watch and saith dearly. He is the fellow who carries the Saturday Evening Post to economies lectures. He is the follow who walked into a clothing store, looked at a spring suit, ordered ten dollars worth of neckties and left his guess on the all-valley team. He lends his dress shirt studs. He writes jokes about the faculty. He hopes for better motion pictures. He talks to four young women at Brick's with a dine in his pocket. He reads all the library assignments. He expects "Sharley" to marry Pola. He buys shines on rainy days before making a 1:30 class in West Administration. He never laughs at his professor' jokes. He attends noonday luncheons when he is hungry. He never writes home for checks. He hangs a new gabardine in the cloak room. He writes things and expects them to be read. A careful examination of the antiquities taken from King Tut's tomb has revealed the royal joke-book. On the fly-leaf is Tut's autograph and a stipulation expressly forbidding the mother-in-law joke because of its stiffness. MONEY AND IDEALS Because America is unwilling torix in the struggles of the petty European nations, our critics say we have no ideals and that we are interested in nothing except money. A few months ago, Paderewski, the great pianist, took a fortune and a splendid set of ideals with him when he left to establish the Polish republic. His money gave out and he is back in America giving concerts for a few patty thousands per. His ideals could not keep him in Poland. Zhyskoy, the Polish wrestler, left for Poland to help the pianist. He also was equipped with a huge fortune and a splendid set of ideals. His money gave out. He is back in America wrestling for a few thousand anmatch. His ideals could not keep him in Poland. Automobile tire prices must advance, manufacturers have declared. And all the gray-haired, Akron capitalists are chanting: "It's almost time to re-fire." If America has no ideals, she is in the business financing them. Montreal movie audiences are demanding American-made films featuring Canadian mounted police. Poor circulation would seem to be the trouble with the German body politic. Four trillion marks circulating there now. Constantinople women are soon to be emancipated, to be on a par with American women. That will create a new market for American manufacturers of Turkish cigarettes. Monday, March 19, 1923 Official Daily University Bulletin Copy received by F. Florence B., Bliss, Editor, Chancellor's Office Vol. II The regular meeting of the Faculty of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will be held at 4:30 Tuesday afternoon in Blake Hall Lecture Room. The report of the Committee on Undergraduate Scholarship will be given further consideration at that time. Full attendance is desired. COLLEGE FACULTY: ORCHESTRA REHEARSAL The regular rehearsal of the University Orchestra will be held at 3:30 Tuesday afternoon in Fraser Chapel. RHADAMANTHI: The failure of the legislature to pass the bill prohibiting the use of motor cars on the Hill was insured after the legislators had visited the campus and inspected its boulevards. They deemed the law unnecessary. The studious room-mate in whose presence you can scarcely speak is a jewel besides the one who supply of verbineage never seems at low ebb. The room-mate who borrows everything you have seems a pest now, but in the years to come the room-mate who causes all our troubles now will probably be called "the best pal ever had." The room-mate who is in love is the supreme trial. Letters read aloud, photographs to admire, recitals of "what he said" and "what I said," are some of the tribulations of the one whose room-mate is in love. ROOM-MATES By the time one finishes college, everyone is fitted with an abundance of material for a very enlightening paper on "room-mates I Have Known," and the wealth of material that such an essay would contain would delimit the heart of the psychologist or the sociologist. The pretty one who knows it, presents the real test of temper. The mirror is the battle ground and the pretty one is always on the ground ready to do battle when you arrive in the field. About the only European crown which seems stable is the English, and even it is reported to be a more half-crown. The Prince of Wales set the fashion for men's clothes in England. In this country, a movie hero—probably a former dishwasher—does it. There is the room-mate who is a real buddy and there is the room-mate who always seems a stranger. With one room-mate all is peace and joy; with another the semester is one long quarrel. One room-mate encourages you in everything you do; another breathes an atmosphere of discouragement. SOMETHING IN THE AIR E. H, LINDLEY Some room-mates are so untidy that you do not like to go into your room. Another room-mate may be so tidy that you never feel quite at home. Your very breathing might put something out of its proper place. There is an epidemic of friendliness. There is something in the air now besides frigid atmosphere. A special meeting of Rhadamanti is hereby called for 7:30 Tuesday evening in Fraser Rest Room, to consider manuscripts submitted for membership. The proposal that a neutral zone twenty miles wide be established between the French and Germans in the Ruhr looks like an ingenious way to keep the bill collector from Germany's front door. E. F. KURTZ, Director There is something in the air and if the students will have the patience to wait about a week, they may be let in on the secret, that they are soon to be permitted to elect students to represent them in conducting the business of student government. Serious young men carry on conversations in undertones. Telephone calls late in the evening are increasing. Lights are burning late, but strangely enough, there is a slump in the quality of recitations. room-motives disappear about 10 o'clock in the evening and return hours later with a flimsy explanation for their absence. The select few are boasting of getting three hour's sleep a night. DAISY M. BISHOP, President. MRS. HERBERT FEIS, Critic Plain Tales From The Hil Quiz weeks, cold weather, financial difficulties and unrequited love aren't enough. The mumps have decided to attack a few of the studies, according to subterranean remarks. A bird was put out of class this a.m. for chewing tobacco. He was another victim of the terrible acidic. One of these gentlemen working on the new library excavation is some lad. He sat outside in the cold today, on a powder-key smoking a pipe and chewing on a banana. He is able to be doing some rapid excavation. Our idea of a mean man is the gnu who takes a crib to a school of religion quiz. On Other Hills Hereafter students at the University of Wisconsin will be required to present fee cards for admission to student dances in order to remove those dances from the category of public dances as defend by a city ordinance passed last summer. Under this ordinance all student dances except invitation affairs were classed as public dances. Several students at Johns Hopkins school of medicine have a novel way of paying for their tuition. They are selling their blood for transfusion purposes at $0 a transfusion. It is easy to way into money-making premise through the blood transfusion. The subject must be in perfect health before he is eligible. New rules for eligibility in student activities have been adopted by the faculty of the University of Washington. The more important of these are: a student must not have a total of failures on his previous record exceeding one-fifth of his total hours; a student must not leave from his class if his absence is required by participation; he must keep off probation; an incomplete, until removed, shall have the same value as an E in determining eligibility. These rules apply to the editors-in-chief and business managers of all authorized student publications; student directors of student managers; members of the executive committee and council, and women's federation. Contrasted with six in the class of 1878, Ohio State University will grant degrees to a record class of more than 1300 seniors in June according to present indications. The class will swell the number of degrees awarded by Ohio's largest university to nearly 14,600 numbers for forty-five classes. Summer furs are now showing at the leading shops. (Advertising) CLARENCE EDDY COMING Noted Chicago Organist in Recital Thursday Evening, April 12 The music committee of the Congregational church have engaged Clarence Eddy of Chicago for an organ recital on their new $19,000 Router organ. The date is Thursday evening, April 12. Mr. Eddy is probably the best known organist in the country. He has to his credit the opening of more new organs than any organist in the world, and he covers appearances not only in every state in the union, but also in almost every city of any consequence, whatsoever, to say nothing of the fact that he has played extensively in the world. He is also a prominent figure in all the expositions of the world for the next twenty-five years. Mr. Eddy is an indefatigable student and is always delving for new works and studying the music of his programs are noted for containing much that is new and novel. Mr. Eddy will be assisted by Grice Morei Eddy, controlo. Mrs. Eddy studied with Alberto Raudegger in London and Juliana n 'n Paris. The Music News says of her: "Mrs. Eddy has one of the finest voices and one of the most 'mimicked' artists now living in Chicago." The music committee is indeed formate in being able to offer much an concert or be rewarded by a ull house. The admission will be $1. THE FIG LEAF ISN'T BEING WORN THIS SEASON But every K.
