ROOT CLEANER In view of the recent unfavorable criticism made upon the roofters of a rival Missouri Valley Conference school, it is essential that Kansas roots observe more courtesy towards the officials at future basketball games. Several times during the Aggie contests a few individuals forgot that they were Kansans long enough to bark out a few barbarian vans at Referee Quigley. While this demonstration must have given the individual satisfaction it did the good name of the school a great wrong and impaired the chances of the Kansas teams' victory, for the referee has the right to award a free throw to the opposing team under such circumstances. In fact that is what Referee Quigley did in a game between two Missouri conference teams last week. The Kansas team has more than an even chance of winning the Missouri Valley title if the rooters do not impair its chances. It would do the team less harm if these men who criticize the officials were to step over to the Missouri side of the stand during the coming series and root against their own team. Rooters often fail to recognize those qualities which go to make up a good official. This is well illustrated by the fact that the man who seems to have got along best with the spectators at the games this year is known to authorities as a "homer," or one who plays to the home gallery. Referee Quigley was chosen to officiate at these games because of his known ability and integrity. If Manager Hamilton places the stamp of approval on a man the men in the chairs ought to abide by his judgment. SHOW RIGHT SPIRIT The members of the Student Council are showing the right spirit toward the payment of the Union debt by signing notes, a spirit, by the way, noticeably lacking in the giving of the dance last week. If they keep up this spirit they will find the student body backing them to the last cent on the debt. SHOULDN'T CHASTISE PLAYERS SCUELEN P CASHMAN The men who make up Conference basketball teams are old enough to realize the importance of refraining from personal fouls during the excitement of a contest. Referee Quigley, if pressure be brought to bear, will no doubt refrain from personally chastising them every time he calls a foul not of the technical class. A college basketball game and a national league baseball game require different treatment entirely. However leave it to the proper authorities, and do not vent your disapproval from the gallery. The admission to the senior play this year will be cheaper than for many years past. There is no reason why the student body should not fill the Bowersock when "the professor 'alls in love.' Don't say bad things about your Representative or Senator if he voted against the mill tax the first time. He may vote for it when it comes up for reconsideration. The mill tax resolution was voted down Thursday but is coming up for consideration. You can't keep a good proposition down. There won't be anything in our obituary -about the departed having placed a bet against Kansas' ability to come back. Names. That's All O-See Hughes here! Names, names, all kinds of names! Long names, short names, middle- sized names, weak names, strong names, rough names, tough names, sad names, queer names, shocking names, funny names, good names, bad names, cool, everything suitable names! And all in the student directory tool! If you owned a Weather-hogg world with Cunningham -No. but Under-wood S-h-h-h! Listen! Why did Ola Gui-er? Because she saw carl Grab-br, Burk-hold-erd, Edward Tann-er, Otillia Duck-er and Wilburn Stryk-er. If Shoen-feddelt it, was Jerry Still-well? Yes, but he made Mes-sick. If Corro-ran, and should John Pace, Pauline Kech-um? 'Yes, should I call Pauline Kech-um? 'Yes, Why did Holtz schue the rag? Because she saw Owen Eaton it. Oh, let's ring off. Don't take any or this literally, because it might be difficult to tell what you're saying. A cure has been found for the blues! There is never any need for worry, because you can find anything you want, except I's, in the directory. If you are hungry, you can find an Appel and a Nutt there. If you want a sandwich, there is Bacon and a Bumm. Or maybe you are Bunny or Boy. If you can't 'nx it yourself, look for one of the Bakers or a Cook. If your prof has turned against you, and so have your classmates, don't give up and commit suicide, for a history you can find a couple of Friends. Or, if you get real' sore and have run out of exclamations from your profane vocabulary, you may turn to the directory, where you can find Dammit and Doggett,-take your pick, or use both. In order to acquaint the student with the many other things found in this little unabridged dictionary, some of them may be mentioned. For the botanist, there are Hay Reed, Rose, Sage, Rice, Moss, and Root. For the geologist, Cole, Stone, Flint, Shell, Firestone and Steele. The zoologist may find a Crabb, Lamb, Flint, Shell, Firestone and Bibleical characters there is a Cain, Christ, Moses and Samson. The colors found are Black, Brown, Green, Gray, Golden and Light. The students of high standing are Priest, Major, King and Kaiser. To show the different nationalities some Bells with Clappers to go with them.

As to occupation, one can find Lawyer, Barber, Baker, Flowerer, Fowler, Cooper, Dopp, Copp, Carpenter, Butcher, Banker, Cook, Diver, Dean, Crooks, Huntsman, Porter, Tanner, Taylor, Walker, Plowman and Weaver.

If any of the students get sore and cus for printing their names, they'll get Hel-en Moore of it, and get a catch to Swear-ingen. But this isn't all. We also have a beach, Beach Beach, Beach, Dale, Hill and Green街地. Pandora's Box This is enough for this time. We don't dare malt all of them. polesman. 'Aw, you know the reason. She's been running around with a couple of Beta Fly, Siggs. Don't you know it "There, the latest is that little rattle-patted Miss X getting the High-Scribe Job in the illustrious club of Dunbar. Isn't it the rosy limit, to think of her holding down such a position?" "As for me," said the important-sounding bass voice, "any time I'd think enough of a girl to bribe my innocent friends or brethren to vote for her." I could do something desperate first—"id stop school, maybe, and marry her!" doesn't make any difference how poor he is. But she still means she gave have any pull they needed by "by." This dialogue continued behind the sacred, supposedly soundproof walls separating the back-boots of Lee's from the interested eavesdroppers. "Any time I allow any one to persuade me that Matty, Bell or Clara or Ida or Mary is better than Cynthia or Elizabeth or Genevieve--you just let me know about it." The tenor voice quavered in the middle of an eloquent righteous according to how many of the low-mumbled words were audible to the listeners. "Now here's the matter of the Crow-Board Election. If Tom Tinker gets it—editor-in-chief, you know what he's going to lower and lower as he whispered the names of the elected sister-hood. Whereas, over and above the fact that so-and-so ought to get on, if Tom Tinker gets it, there's no hope for her." "Here, I have the checks--let's go! And say, Bill, on the side, do you know that cute little Betty Burns? Well, she's running for Senior Keeper-of-the-land, but she'll need to see her get it. She's lots better than the other candidates." "reckon since you're my friend I'd just as soon," was the reply.

P., through the prairie land Where the distant, snow-capped mountains stand; And I'm through with the Denver and Rio Grande. Where the trees make a windbreak on the plain. It have a pitch. Pitch huge forkfuls of yellow rissin. Where the golden oranges glow in the trees. I will never labor and sose again! With the sweating a hard-syed hobo Where cotton bolls burst about the knees. And I'll never go on a star-watched souse Or join the hilarious roughness. During burnt-out logs in the camp-fire Or join the hilarious roughhouse Once you put loss in the camp While whistles shriek and headlights flare In blinding shafts round the steel- curved track. It's a life behind, and I can't go back. For another call has come to me The cry of a high, elusive art To shake men's spirits as great winds blow. Oh, yeggman, gaycat, beggarman, thief. You may girdle the world, but your end is grief! You may cross the seas, fling up and down From state to state and from town to town.

The Deluded Cow "Even animals show their feeling," remarked the comedian to a friend the other day. (This happened in England; London Tit-Bits tells it.) "Only yesterday an animal showed me gratitude. I was wandering along a stream in the mountains, in great distress. Her calf was drowning. I plunged in the water and rescued the calf, and the grateful cow licked my hand." "That wasn't gratitude," replied the man. "The cow thought she had twins."
