JAMES A. KIMBALL
A great organizer and a fine, true statesman was lost to Kansas when "Jim" Kimball passed into The Great Beyond yesterday.
Those with whom he has come in contact during his sixty years of service knew him as one of the most altruistic public figures the state has ever known. Always ready to immolate self on the alter of service, he dedicated his life to making Kansas a better state. His relations to the University of Kansas, as business manager of all state institutions, makes the loss all the more keenly felt here on Mt. Oread.
He is dead. But those simple, kindly
nests still live in the hearts of his
friends—a monument to the best that
is in man.
“If we locked up all our feeble-minded, who would write all our song hits?” questions an eastern paper. We wouldn't need any because the fellow that buys them would be behind bars, too.
Welcome to Kansas!
THE NEW K. U.
For some of you, this is an altogether new venture. Others of you are just "coming back." Yet even you may find some things different. Strange as it may seem, education is the paramount thing with us. The old idea that a student has a right to employ his time as he sees it, so long as he pays his tuition and refrences from breaking the Senate rulings, has been replaced. In its place has been advanced the theory that those who do not come here with the sincere desire to learn something have no claim to the time and attention of the instructors. There are those who are yet reluctant to believe that such a condition of affairs exists. We badge好bye to a number of those individuals quite recently.
There are a lot of other precedents which have passed into the discard. The ancient rite of "passing the flowing bowel" is no longer observed. True, there are still a few unshaven youths who will pay as high as eight dollars a pint for a very poor cooking liquor in order that certain of their lady friends may know, beyond a doubt, that they are very worldly and bad. But the fact remains that, as far as the University authorities are concerned, the lid is on.
vumerous other little ventures have been made very unwise, to say the least. Informal parties of the risque variety, spicy scandals, and suggestive publications have met with such disfavor that they have been abandoned as not worth the risk.
Likewise, the game of "hide-and-seek" with the downtown merchants has been eliminated. Emphasis has been placed on strict honesty and integrity in the relations between students and business men and the latter have taken certain steps toward self protection.
Yet even at that, it is far from being a "long-faced" school—Kansas. There are those who have stood up under it for eight or ten rounds and got a referee's decision, and they still insist that they had a good time.
After all, it's the same old story. You get out of it just about what you put into it.
The "umspakable" Tark has instituted a moral clean-up of Constantinople. Present conditions there are said to be the aftermath of Allied occupation of the city. An interesting study in cause and effect.
THAT TEAM
It was a wonderful exhibition of fighting Jayhawk spirit, that game in Convention Hall last Wednesday night! Not for some years has the Crimean and Blue been so well represented on the court. Not for some years has the Kansas fan had so much to bring about.
Charley Black dribbling from one end of the floor to the other—Captain Endacott breaking up a whirlwind offense—Waldo Bowman fighting his way gamely down under the basket “Tus” Ackerman shooting from all corners—Johnny Wuff, everywhere, all the time—and Armin Woestemeyer back in school—
Boy, if you want to strut your Kansas stuff, broadcast this: Kansas has the fastest college quintet in the world!
Sometimes, after you've uttered that mellow thought, long housed in active grey matter, you realize that it was just "gured in the wood."
A NEW LEAF
So this is the second semester!
One sees a lot of new faces on
he campus. And there are some se-
cal of the Old Guard who won't be
ere to answer Roll Call for this
go-round." Too bad!
The truth of the matter is: This business of acquiring an education has dimmered to a more survival of the fittest. The wise bird who places a small bet that he can make the grade without cracking a book has very little percentage and less sense. Time was when the only investment a shrewd business man didn't expect return from was sending his offspring to college. But times, as well as methods, have changed. And the man who wants the credit is asked to produce the groods.
There is one consolation. It is never too late to profit by past experience. The fellow who figured he could tag along after the class for four months and finish up with a burst of speed, knows better now. Likewise, the maiden who thought she could "kid" the Old Fossil out of a grade.
Better hit the apple now. For as as said along the Appian Way; empus keeps a 'fugitin'.
All power to the professor who aided suggest that what we needed t Washington was "more men and ever 'God-sakers.'"
Plain Tales From The Hill
The louder the necktie the better the mood—that's what the Laws say of Dean Burdick.
Once to every man or student
Concern the moment to decide,
That it's flirting with destruction
To let his courses slide.
"Day by day in every way 1 and growing smarter and smarter," may be a good treatment to use just before exams, but as someone remarked, "You can't rely on your imagination in finals."
It was the lobby of the postoffice.
Excitement reigned. A group of hill students, among them a Kansan cub, stood around, watching the scene with morbid curiosity. Oceasionally, commiserating sights broke from the lips of the more sympathetic ones.
She wasn't. She was only trying to see the wrist-watch on her left arm.
"She's having a fit," someone announced. Commiserating sighs increased.
She was large, fat almost, very determined to master the situation, and burdened with packages.
One professor has announced that the scope of her examinations will not be wide. Maybe but, well wewr our new bandanna neckchief that it will be deep enough to make up for its lack of width.
It's no harder for the people of Poland to pronounce their new president's name, Mr. Wolejciewski, who is now by Sea Dean Brand, or Dean Ann Blitz.

ORCHESTRA REHEARSALS;
There will be NO Orchestra Rehearsal Tuesday of this week. The first regular rehearsal will be at 7:30 Thursday evening in Fraser Chapel, The Performing Arts Building.
A good deal of crowing probably will be heard from West Ad, after every question.
PUBLIC LECTURE ON ONE-ACT PLAYS:
Professor Max B. Jaslow, chairman of the Playwriting Department o
the Lawrence Drama League, will lecture on "The Technique of the One-As
Play" at 8 o'clock Tuesday evening in Room 210 Fraser Hall. The Publi
is invited.
The average fraternity man takes the admiration of the women on the Hill as a matter of course, but when during vacations a widow selects him to be her bridesmaid, and he acquires knowledge that he is being stamped with the approval of a connoisseur.
J. G. BRANDT, Dean
After a girl has been talking inspiringly for an hour or so about the "big problems" of life and all that, it is awfully nice and restful to a man to have her suddenly stop and begin to talk about a little thing like the way his hair waves off his forehead.
family raiders, who imprinted the "woman of the deep voice," found favor with the audience, as did Arthur G. Hadley, the cartoonist who caricatured the characters of the comic sections.
The super-ignorant co-ed has been found. We met one the other day who thought that "Alma Mater" meant "sweet mama."
One freshman from the fertile fields of Kansas has expressed the hope that the gardeners who have been tilling the soil in front of the Ad. administration building all year, will plant a large number of flowers in that plot. Others would prefer green onions, and then of course there's garlic—and...
The Greenwich Village Follese, presented at the Bowersock Theater last Wednesday night, is a rather disappointing show. The wit is flat with only here and there a high spot in which there is real cleverness; there is little music except that furnished by the orchestra; in fact, the Follese plays "pumu" and "puumu" necessary to carry across a show of disconnected acts.
Prof. L, N. Flint of the department of journalism made a speech at the convention of the State Editorial Association, in Topka, Friday, in which he told of the typical course of the student in the department; which calls to mind the sign on the front door of the Journal building which reads, "All Hope Abandoned Ye Who Enter Here."
In the singing of "Sweet Sixteen" by George Dale and Judy Carson there was a degree of finesse that was lacking throughout the larger portion of the Follies. The accompanying scene with its soft lighting added not a little to the attractiveness of the episode.
The dancing acts and the bizarre costuming were the two redeeming features of the production. The animation of the dancers partly made use of a prop in which the "villagers" stood about and watched during those acts. In scene one of act II the costumes were particularly good; this was the scene in which the dancers carried the pantomime of making perfume.
An act which had the possibilities of being something good, but which culminated pathetically, was that of the two old men—the village gossips. At the outset their ridiculous voices promise of a clever act, but they tried to hold the stage for fifteen minutes although their wit was exhausted in a third of that time. The closing song of the act met with some favor, but for most the episode was runed from some killing propenalties of the two.
There was nothing shocking about the "Hell Hole" scene of the Act I except its name. The drunk man was funny, but why was it necessary for him to make a second appearance in Act II? One intoxicated person and all your average canes can sniff out the course of an evening.
The Greenwich Village Folies is not altogether lacking in merit; occasionally there is a flash of real on or extraordinary talent. But the "villagers" seemed to be frankly bored with this sort of story, and she show a success rises upon the shoulders of three or four—and it is too much for them.
