The senior engineers here have adopted the three-quart sombero as a mark of distinction. For another year visitors at the University will be surprised to find that "K, U. has placed courses in agriculture on the curriculum."
THE CRY OF THE PACK
Last night the paddling squad was out again—a howling, illegal mob without mory or restraint—a disgrace to the University. Up and down the streets of the student district the pack ran, interrupting study and keeping the townpeople awake. The promiscuous paddling of freshmen is against the laws of the state and the rules of the University; just so long will the patience of the administration and the officers of Lawrence last, and then the pack will be rounded-up.
Paddling "screes" such as have been taken place when a few upper-classmen decide to "have a little fun." But as the mob increases and the lines of paddles lengthen, the "little fun" takes on a brutal aspect, and it is only through excitement and the arousing of the animal instinct that a crowd of University men can be brought to the point where they will put one of their fellows, whose only sin is that of being a freshman, through a punishment so severe that he falls fainting against the terrace at the end of the block-line. We admire a display of "fight" and independence, and yet when a freshman has the nerve to resist the pack he falls to "show a good spirit" and is promptly thrown in Potter's lake.
Only one group of men on this hill, the K Club, is authorized to paddle first year men, and then only when there is reason for punishment. Again let it be emphasized that hazing is a violation of the state laws, and that some day the guilty ones will be brought to a forcible realization of that fact.
In conclusion, let us say that the practice of promisemaking paddling is such a cowardly form of pleasure that any man with a true sense of sportsmanship could hardly indulge in it. Would you shoot a defenseless man in the back? No! Then why beat a freshman without giving him a chance to fight back?
And still we think that the bone of contention is the bone in bonus.
WRITE TO THE FOLKS
Now that the edge of your home sickness has worn off, are you neglecting that letter to the home folks? With the beginning of earnest work and the making of new friends, you have probably been putting off that letter to mother and the folks at home.
Don't do it. They want to hear from you. They are missing you at home and eagerly await your letters. They want to know what you are doing; they want to know about your
work and your play. Their thoughts are with you just as much as if you were at home.
Don't disappoint the folks at home.
Write them tonight. Keep on writing to them regularly.
JUST A TIP
Why not improve the improvements?
Since the crossing has been torn up for paving, the journey across the hill is a strenuous one for women due to a great deal of stepping upon and off of foot high curbs. Temporary wooden approaches would be inexpensive and every student who has a class on the West part of the campus would doubtless appreciate them.
There are still several people in the United States who do not know the location of the University of Kansas. The Chancellor received two letters this morning one of which was addressed to the University of Tooneka, the other to the University at Wichita.
Once or twice each year some dis tinguished personage, after a rather extended investigation of universities and colleges in America, comes to the weighty conclusion that the youth of today is carefree and thoughtless—that the college student of this country does not really "think." Such an investigation invariably starts an editorial squabble and perforce the college editor must get his finger in the pie.
CERTAINLY WE THINK!
Why of curse the university student thinks. Would that such "doubling Thomases" might be dragged into a political pow-wow one of the student parties here on the hill. Could they only hear the astute plannings of the party bosses; could they but watch the shuffling of the candidates, like cards in the hands of a clever dealer; and, finally, could they see the competition of the nicely laid schemes at University elections, then, surely, surely, the skeptical one would agree that the college student is not shallow-minded.
But were there one investigator still unconvinced, we would invite him to dinner at the boarding club, and allow him to listen to student plots of how to avoid the new bank rule in Lawrence—scenes whereby the patron might maintain a deposit of $1.98 and yet avoid the 50 cent monthly penalty. Or again we would let him gaze upon the furrowed brow of a son writing to his father, asking for a paternal appropriation, and making precise calculations concerning how large a sum for books and fees he can trust to the father's credulity.
Certainly the college student thinks. But before allowing the investigator to return to his investigations, we might give him one additional tip. The college student thinks about that which he is interested in, and that includes many things of a substantial nature. But he will not become interested in and think about certain things which the older generation insists upon; hence the semi-annual investigations and conclusion, and the ensuing editorial squabbles.
Now comes the rumor that Trotsky was educated in Kansas. Time for a certain Kansas editor to write another editorial "What Waa The matter With Kansas."
There seems to be some doubt on the campus as to whether Sir Charles Wakefield is English or not. In his talk Friday not once did he say, "bloomin', "doncherno", "deucedly" or "Bah Jove!"
Someone ought to hunt up those bits of ironmongery that used to decorate the campus in front of the Administration Building and train them on those human carbon copies who are trying to train their manne over their tempe in the torader style of our beloved (?) Rodolph.
