BETTER PAY NOW Subscriptions to the Memorial Fund have now passed the $700,000.00 mark, which is a fine commentary on the generosity of the alumni of K. U. and the people of the state of Kansas as a whole. And it is worthy of note that of that total the students in school subscribed about a third. The school loyalty aroused by the campaign and the subsequent welding into closer fellowship of the entire student body are features of the Memorial Drive which are facts of equal importance with our new stadium. But let a sober note of warning be sounded. A subscription on paper is an easy thing to make. It is the making good of that subscription which shows the amount of sincerity behind the student's precious enthusiasm. There is no means of getting around the hard truth that the stadium must be paid for in actual money sooner of later. Subscriptions on paper whose promise has not been made good, when due, are worse than worthless, because they lead us to a false sense of security. Older folk are prone to remark that students make wild promises that they cannot possibly fulfill. In some cases this accusation is certainly justified. Not a few students have been somewhat lax in making their payments promptly. Of course there are not many students who will not eventually pay up. But the delay in payments means a slowing up of the work on both stadium and Student Union. The students of the University of Kansas have set the pace in subscribing to the Drive. Let them now set the pace in making good these promises. AN UNSUNG GENIUS Last week at his home in one of the Eastern states there died one Sterling Elliott. No doubt his close friends and relatives mourned his departure and shed a tear upon his grave. Some of the Eastern papers printed a stick of matter regarding his death hidden away in an obscure part of the paper. But the world as a whole knew little of his passing and doubtless cared less. Yet this man more than any other single person made possible the rapid strides of the automotive industry in the past fifteen years. All he did was to perfect the idea of the pneumatic tire; but before the introduction of his tire the automobile had been prevented from obtaining any great speed, owing to the hardness and the lack of resilience in the wheels of the oldtime cars. And speed is an essential qualification of the modern automotive vehicle. What the tire is to the automobile, so is the automobile to modern industry. It is the lubricant that speeds the wheels of commerce. Humble though Sterling Elliott was night we not appropriately give him a minor niche in the hall of fame among all those more illustrious inventors and benefactors of the human race whose names are common household property? THE MOVIES AND THE PRESS PRESS And now Douglas Fairbanks comes forth with the bland statement that "America is going to lose its motion picture industry unless criticism of its people stops." All right, Doug. If the criticisms by the American people of the motion picture industry are just, then America can afford to lose it; there is no room in America for anything that is as foul as this industry is reputed to be. If the stories of the press are not rounded on fact, retraction must be made. If they are true criticism of he industry will not stop as long as he denoilable exists exist. Either a good clean-up is in order or else conditions haw been grossly misrepresented to the public. But the criticism will not, cannot stop, under he present system. The lightning-like rapidity with which the motion picture industry has developed has placed a new problem in the hands of the American people. t has become a very real and important factor in their daily lives. Children are more familiar with the faces of some of the prominent stars than they are with the big people in their own community. What is more important, they are thoroughly familiar with the reputed daily (or nightly) lives of the stars themselves. "Young America" cannot be permitted to "hero-worship" people whom they know to be morally unfit and indecent. Yes, Doug, the public insists on one of three things: a clean-up; proof that wide spread immorality in Hollywood does not exist; or the exit of the industry. THE UNIVERSITY STOCK COMPANY It is up to the motion picture people themselves. They got themselves onto this dilemma; now they can get of it or get out of the business. But don't ask the criticism to stop the public insists on being shown. A majority of people would say without hesitation that advertisement is an excellent thing for the University. It is our opinion that the Dramatic Club has established a good precedent in this kind of service. Last week the University Stock company, composed of students of the University and directed by Professor MacMurray, toured a considerable portion of the state and presented "The Big Idea." Judging from reports from the towns where the company played and from the pronounced success the production made here, there is little doubt that it was a good advertisement for the University. Besides being a good advertisement, it furnished the people of those towns good wholesome entertainment; and they undoubtedly account their time and money as well spent. Professor MacMurray and the members of the cast of the "Big Idea," should be heartily congratulated for their uniting and productive efforts. Prohibition of all dances, formal and informal, was decided on yesterday at a joint meeting of the University of Oregon health committee and the committee of social affairs. This action, taken for the purpose of checking the epidemics of colds and sickness on the campus, was accompanied by recommendations that every student take extra precautions to avoid infections with the prevailing malady. Campus celebrities turned boot-blacks and campus queens turned manicurists to help raise money on the fourth day of the drive among students at Stanford University to raise $200,000 to add to the endowment fund. For two bits a throw one could have his or her pet aversion or secret snoop perform the rites of shoe shining or cuticle cutting. Restriction of college attendance by some form of selection is finding many advocates now. Some president's suggest personnel tests for freshmen, some advise a strict weeding out of students who fail tests for admission ask for admission only of students who have maintained a certain standing in high school.

A professor of philosophy at the University of Minnesota believes that military training in school or college may influence the morale and breadwaste spirit.

The stadium will seat 75,000 and will be 'in the center of a huge recreation field of one hundred acres, on which will be twenty-five basketball diamonds, soccer, and hockey fields, one hundred lawn and clay tennis courts, a polo field and perhaps an artificial ice skating ring.

Johnny Mohardt, Notre Dame university's all-American half-back, who is sought by several major league baseball teams, today admitted that he had played in a professional foot-all game. He has signed a contract with the Detroit American League club to play baseball next season. According to Mohard, he had planned to enter Pennsylvania to study medicine after his graduation from Notre Dame. The first call for track candidates at Oregon Agricultural College by H. H. Butler, track coach, brought out more than 70 men. He is well pleased with the turnover, as most of them are men with good track ability. Adoption of a new system for the administration of the A. S. U. C. business and activities, to be embodied in a new constitution, will be made by the California constitutional revision committee today. The coach is planning to send a strong team to the Seattle relays, in the University of Washington stadium this spring.
