The Daily Kansan aims to picture students in the University of Kansas; to go further than merely printing the news from their university; to hold a university hustle; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be brave; to be dangerous; to leave more serious problems to wier heads; in aid to serve to the students; in utility to the students of the University.
AROUND THE WORLD
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1917.
If you've ever heard it growled forth from the throats of a few thousand 40-lung power Kansas boys and girls, it's not wonder that the Kansas soldier boys at the mobilization camps have taken up "Rock Chalk Jay Hawk," as their official battle cry. It's classed as a college yell, but Rock Chalk is really more than that. It's the Kansas language set in 420-point black face type, slugged and leaded with two-by-fours, and its been the official battle cry of Kansas soldier boys in every war since its invention.
Funston and his men used it as part of their ammunition against the little brown brothers of the Philippines. The Kansas boys yelled it to terrify the natives and send the revolting Mexes scurrying to the tall grass all the way from Eagle Pass to Columbus last summer. It is said that the 20th Kansas were yelling it in the Philippines when General McArthur made the famous remark, "There goes Kansas, and all hell can't stop her," and in all the wars Kansas men have fought of recent years "Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk," has led the troops to battle. Count Boris Some-thing-or-other, a one-time K. U. student, took the yell when he returned home to fight in one of the Baltic wars a few years ago and his men just naturally scared the enemy to death with old Rock Chalk.
So the battle cry will not be new in the army, nor will it be new in Europe. And if they'll only let ex-cheerleader Lieutenant Joe Gaitskill take off his O. D.'s some day, put on a suit of red and blue, stand up on the first line trenches over there in France and lead the Kansas boys in Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk, the Huns won't stop running until the Baltic sea opens up to receive 'em.
It'll scare the socks off of Kultur.
—Adne G. Palmer, an old Kansan man, in The Kingman Leader-Courier.
And here's the way the "Orange and Black," published at Stillwater, Oklahoma, 'landers K. U.:
OUR MILITARY RECORD
"Only twenty-five men from the University were commissioned in the officers camp at Fort Riley, Kansas, in August. From our there we came in all the different branches of the service, forty-one of them. When you think of the 4,000 students-enrolled in the University of Kansas, the time, age, and our record is something to feel of proud."
SCORE ONE!
The Student Council is to be congratulated on the successful election it held last Friday. From all reports there was no fraudulent voting, no unfair discriminations, and no questionable practices. The election was undoubtedly the most orderly of any in recent years. Careful supervision of the polls by student council authorities is responsible for it. The
council members are to be congratulated.
They deserve praise, also, for the prompt manner in which the political posters were washed from the campus walks. Only a few remained Monday morning, and a workman was cleaning them up as students came up the Hill for their 8:30 classes.
And now the council will have opportunity to turn its attention to the graft situation. Registrar George O. Foster has been appointed by Chancellor Strong as the official auditor of student accounts, and whatever is done toward the elimination of graft will be done through Mr. Foster's office. In this work the student council can be of valuable assistance, if it so chooses.
A week ago it was announced that further work on the graft problem would have to be postponed until the election of men to fill the vacancies on the council. Those places have now been filled. All the committees have been appointed and the fall election is over. Score One!
Now for the graft problems. Let's score two, men!
BUY A BOND
Through the medium of the second Liberty Loan, Columbia is calling for support. Dollars are needed to make the world safe for democracy. Now the question is, what are we of the University of Kansas going to do about it?
In the first place we live in a more or less secluded atmosphere and to us the appeal is not so strong as to the man in business or the householder with his fingers upon the purse-strings. We are prone to regard with indifference the efforts of the government to raise this three billions. We shirk the responsibility of active participation, yet we are perfectly content to remain at home while other K. U. men fight our battles.
Every student should feel his responsibility in this matter and contribute accordingly. To buy a bond is both patriotic and profitable. It has always been that we looked with envy upon the holder of government bonds; at times we even sought to repudiate some of the issues because they were lining the pockets of those who had supported the government by purchasing. Now the opportunity comes to us to join this class. Buy a bond. They are issued in multiples of fifty dollars and can be bought on the small payment plan at any bank.
One student says he's going to give up trying to master French. He can pronounce the words all right, he says, but he can't learn to shrug his shoulders.
When Seniors were Sophs
Examinations are being held for the six men who are competing for the Rhodes Scholarship: Noble King, Wichita; Eugene Lehrman, Emoria; Louis Rex Miller, Lawrence; Robert Edmonson, Richard Edmonson; Emoria; and Glenn Swoger, Lawrence, who holds a scholarship from Baker University.
Prof. Arthur MacMurray is responsible for the following Biblical sentiment: "When I was a boy, I attended Baker University and a man, I put away childish things and Kansas."
Mrs. Eustace Brown announces that the All-University Halloween party to be given at the Gymnasium October 30 will take the form of a Scotch evening, featuring tables and dances. The first four dances are to be reserved for guests in costume only.
The Kansas chapter of Phi Kappa is installed. Four of the twenty-five new members have brand new black eyes.
Professor Twenhofel looks for an assistant because he is swamped with quix books from two sections of his Geology 1 course.
K. U. prepares for football game with the Kansas Normals. Coaches expect a hard battle with Bill Hargiss' veteran eleven. It is rumored that eighthe Normal letter men are waiting to play against Kansas.
