Address all communications to THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Lawrence, Kansas Phones, R. U. 25 and 66 The Daily Kannon allows to picture the undergraduate life of the University of Chicago, where she updates the news by blending for the ideas necessary to be clear; to be cheerful; to be brave; to be clean MONDAY, MARCH 5, 1923 Our fame spreads. The Hinwina Daily World beautifully informs its subscribers that the K. U. victory over Missouri gives the Kansas team the championship of northeast Kansas. A CLUB FOR ALL In America we have a great deal to say about democracy and its advantages, but not always are our actions and our institutions as democratic as our words. Exclusiveness has about it a great attraction. For instance, here at the University we have few student clubs or activities that are open to all regardless of any special qualification. But now K. U. is to have a student activity for everyone on the Hill—a clubhouse for the University. The Student Union Building will in truth be a monument to democracy; one need not even have the qualification of "the price of a coke" to make use of its facilities. The Union Building will be of special value to the non-organization student who finds the restricted atmosphere of the rooming house tiresome at times. The University is large. Intimate acquaintance among large numbers is impossible; hence we have many smaller groups—some more exclusive than others. This is only natural, and within itself not a bad thing, but K. U. has long needed an activity to broaden acquaintance—one which would draw all into one large club. The Student Union is the solution of the problem. But the Union is no more for the non-organization student than for the one who has his own circle of acquaintance in a fraternity. And there lies the beauty of the thing; therein is its democracy. Built for the use of everyone who claims allegiance to K. U., the Student Union will tend to eliminate false class distinctions, and make for a more unified school spirit. And, incidentally, just as there will be no limitations concerning who may use the Union, there are none as to who may subscribe to the fund for its building. Rather than tear out part of the building to permit a 490-pound Detroit woman to enter the court-room, a judge in Ford's city permitted her to plead guilty by proxy of receiving stolen goods. The judge then suspended sentence. He probably didn't want to go to the expense of building a jail around her. WHITE AND RED Four centuries ago, the process of restricting the American Indian was begun. He was pushed from his forests and rivers to the westward and the north, and finally placed in reservations, owned and operated by the government, in most cases. The freedom of the untridden wilderness was no longer his, but philanthropists (there were some in those days) attempted to preserve for him and his people at least some of the atmosphere to which they were accustomed. The Indian was comparatively happy. Unable to keep step with the rapid tread of American civilization, he was content to live apart with his people, and watch the bury, strange world on the outside. In some cases, as that of the Navajos, so complete was their organization that they enjoyed self-government. That tribe enjoys the distinction of being the only Indian tribe which has never asked for, and has steadfastly refused to accept financial aid from the government. It has been hard sometimes to make a living on the poor soil where they lived. But they have done it. The proposal of former Secretary Fall of the department of the interior, which would remove the self-government of the Navajos, and place it in the hands of a committee appointed outside the tribe, is the latest development in the process. The excuse offered for such a step is that designing promoters have been obtaining valuable oil leases from the Indian tribe. To the Indian, long acquainted with the capidity of the white people, it is an attempt to take away from him all that remains of a one-great heritage. He recalls that the government never seemed so anxious to protect him from the colls of schening men before the land became so valuable. He recalls that the same men who now propose to take away his self-government once fought a war to gain that very thing for them-selves. If it is true that he is in danger of becoming the dupe of wily promoters, then there must be another way to protect him than by removing the last vestiges of autonomy. The Indian has suffered enough at the hands of the whites. The records of the past encourage the suspicion that it is the rich Indian land, not the Indian himself, that is the greatest matter of concern. New Yorkers are buying cigarettes cases which play tunes when they are opened. "The Campsbells Are Coming" would be appropriate. THE WRONG SLANT Are we always to be misguided by those having long-sided eyeglass? Our statemen see little further than the balloon box. Our international vision has become so warped that when we stand off and view old Mother Earth it appears to be bounded by New York and California. Some of us think that the first chapter of Genesis was written as a preamble to our constitution and that the world began on the Fourth of July. In considering our industrial problems our view is narrow. New York would not allow the rest of the country to put over the St. Lawrence protect because New York could not see how the St. Lawrence shipping would help New York.' Now Kansas City is doing her best to prevent a Southwestern rail merger, not because she thinks it bad for the transportation system of the country, but because Kansas City has a vision of a few of her cherished skis heading southward. The rail merger may or may not be a bad thing, but our view of such questions should not be distorted by my ipic self-interest. Senator Reed, of Missouri, in speaking of the change proposed by the pending rail merger, says, "it would scarcely be confused, even in the brain of an idiot, with real advancement." Well, perhaps Mr. Reed ought to know what he is talking about. At 2:36 o'clock this afternoon, Charles Chaplin and Pola Negri were still engaged. An Indiana legislator put on a necktie the other day for the first time in thirty-five years.' Such is the refining influence of statenomnship. Uncle Sam has sent a man to Europe to collect 255 million for maintaining our army on the Rhine. We ought to be sure he left with enough change to pay his way back.

'88, who has the University at Hartford and understands his Alma Mater better than a great many prominent men of the state, writes in the edi- tion column of the Lola Daily Register: Many man who have since become distinguished were members of the team which won the silver ball from Washburn in a series of games. HELEN WELCH, President. E. GALLOO, Faculty Adviser. HELEN WELCH, President. A woman at the University of Oregon is making the professors prove the value of their courses. She is changing her major and in order to find one that will offer her opportunities to offer the rounds of the various schools. "The edition of the Register has just been notified that by virtue of a retrospective resolution of the athletic board of the University of Kansas he is entitled to o "K" for the reason that he once played the position of catcher on the 'Varsity Nine.' And that reminds him: "There wasn't any athletic board in his day at K. U., nor any 'letter,' nor any football, nor any basketball, nor any tennis nor a golf—junior baseball. Horribly dull! Well, not as you would notice it." Then Charley retrospects a little about the motion in those days that the real purpose of going to college was to get an education, but he says, "Even the older boys did this because it came only in the spring when the days were long, and the boys couldn't work all the time anyhow." "Through the fall and winter the boys all had previous engagements with their algebraes and geometries, and languages Jooks and sciences. That went even for the freshmen, for the gentle art of flunking, or painting, and for the poetic power that then as it seems to have become since, with the report coming down from Lawrence that several hundred of the freshman class failed to pass their first semester examinations. Of course there was some diversion, even in fail and winter—the literary piece." Mr. Scott writes of a basketball game in which the opposing team made seventeen runs in one inning, "and Ralph Waldo Einstein, in the pitcher's box, getting mudder and mudder every minute." The only fight the catcher got into in his life was started by Ed. Little, now a professor at Boston University, captain of the other team a liar. The catcher thought that the pitcher might need some help. On Other Hills The State University of Indiana cannot be moved from Bloomington where it is now located, according to a report by the university in 1855 and just recently unearthed. Work on a new stadium for the University of Maryland at College Park, Md., has begun. President at the University of Iowa are forced to wear green caps the entire year. The Daily Nebraska reports that one-third of the women students in the University of Nebraska just seated on their way, wholly or partially. Women students at Indiana University are going back to the old-fashioned shawls. They are worn on the neck, regular row girl style. The honor system is practically applied at the University of Iowa where apples are sold from a box in Alicia Apfel's five conti- honor system." A number of separate spontaneous incidents indicate that a wave of sentiment and action for law enforcement is sweeping American colleges. At a Yale student meeting, two undergraduate committees were chosen to conduct the student body. A "Bone Dry" Club has been formed at the University of South Dakota. Wesleyan University, Connecticut, has ratified a plan by which students themselves are to punish any student drinking during the academic year. The freshman class at Lafayette College in Penn., Missouri, will disapprove the use of alcohol liquors on the campus. Ferry-two Oklahoma football men will be awarded letters this year, according to the freshman coach. The letters are not given on the number of games played, on ability, hard work, and scholastic eligibility. "Don't send me poles" is the cry of the University of Oregon Pan-Hellenic Council, and the campus is agog whether or not the Oregonian means to follow it with a plea of shoees, but the women say that men are put to unnecessary expense, and that the prevailing styles do not favor corsages. The opposition plays up the thrill which comes only from the new styles. But that the nosegays add a touch of color to the most drab party. No settlement has been made but the men are dumbly hopeful.
