UGLY SIGNS
Is an ugly unsightly advertisement worth while? One would assume it was judging by the number of them which have adorned the campus attracting attention to class parties dances, and theatrical productions.
The latest is the somewhat lopsided, sneary, annotateur creation erected at the entrance of the campus advertising the Kansas Relays. Those behind the Relays should know better. We always thought they did. And the latest "ugly" is actually not as bad as some which have appeared on the Hill in the past, but it certainly does no credit to the Relays.
The Relays sign is an ugly spot and should be removed before outsiders come here for the event this week. Let a sign be erected if necessary, but surely a better representation of sign painting at K. U. can be exhibited than the present one. A better place for these signs is in the vicinity of the stadium or near the gymnasium. But it is not necessary that a sign be ugly. A neatly lettered carefully made sign might be placed on the stadium and not corrosively detract from the appearance of the Hill. It is these utileous amount of paint, wood and cardboard that should be barred entirely from the campus.
A drunken rooster which staggered crowding down the street in Los Angeles brought about the arrest of its owner and the location of a still Capital punishment was inflicted — on the rooster.
NEW ONES
Reporting weddings without printing the name of the groom is becoming common place; reporting athletic contests without rating them (especially when the home team loses). But the University Kansas starts a new one by reviewing an organ recital in the annual College Musical or the organic — Kansas City Star. Sure, we're original. Starting new things is what we like best. But we give credit where it's due. We left it to the Kansas City Times (The Morning Kansas City Star) to report an athletic contest recently and leave the reader to wonder whether it was baseball, basketball, football or horse shoes. That's the newest one.
It is hard to understand why some call the new "farmer-councilman" of Kansas City old fashioned when one considers that he wears suspenders and does not wear garters.
CIVIC IMPROVEMENT
At last Lawrence has taken to the idea of self-improvement. No longer will visitors to our city from the west on the Victory highway he struck with the poor condition of city streets. For, with the election on Tuesday, an overwhelming vote to resurface portions of West Seventh and West Ninth streets was recorded.
Traffic on these highways may soon be conducted without constant attention to the bumps and ruts which were their outstanding characteristics. And the motoring public will be favorably impressed upon entering the city. Not least will be the gain to the University in the improved condition of the way which many follow to the campus.
It is first impressions of a city that are retained. Citizens of Lawrence are to be congratulated on their move to make these remembered impressions favorable ones.
A prediction for the month's best seller—the current issue of the American Mercury.
USE AND DISUSE
What's wrong with Watson Library? Limited space prevents discussion of all library ills, but there are two that demand immediate attention.
The library door, the only door to Watson, still opens inward. Although the building may be fire-proof and panic-proof, the very fact that the only door opens inward instead of outward, thereby irritating and delaying students, is ground enough for complaint. Disregarding the idea of public safety the door should be made to open outward to save students a few seconds each day.
After you encounter with the rude door students go to the reserve room of the library to spend a pleasant hour only to have it spilled by Silent Seth, the big reserve room clock that stares and stares and does not run. Of course students do not need the clock to study, but a reliable timepiece is essential if dates are to be met on time.
Thousands of students will have occasion to enter Watson by the front door and note the time by the reserve room clock before the semester end. It is not too late to start reform today.
In the Kansas-Wisconsin debate Friday night, one of the K. U. men said "It seems to me like," about a dozen times. It seems to us like his head should be knocked up against an English grammar before he represents this heaven-kissing hill in public again.
DRAMA AGAIN!
Drama, that poor underinformed foundling on our campus and in Lawrence, has received a stimulus to growth, a sign of interest in her well-built which, it is honored, will no encourage her as to result in real development.
The University of Kansas Players, a more or less independent group of very capable actors, Wednesday evening presented one of Bernard Shaw's plays. In spite of the fact that this play could really be said to be highly amusing, dozens of people were turned away from the Little Theater. The same thing occurring Thursday night led the players to cement to repeat the play Friday evening.
Regardless of the fact that the Little Theater is so small as to be positively exclusive, the very evil it interacts with the play which is received, and the fact that this same group of players in is present a series of six plays this summer, is more than a hopeful indication.
MORE HORSEPLAY
Friday night the University of Kansas and the University of Wisconsin attempted a debate. The surprising thing is that, in the face of all obstructions, the debate was well-presented and was much enjoyed by the audience.
But some few students who had not informed themselves as to just what was taking place in the auditorium stirred up a little competition outside. The debaters failed to appreciate this since the doors were open wide and those outside took no pains to lower their voices nor move more quickly. The debate continued after this minor interruption with some degree of enthusiasm, a few people in the audience, evidently excited to discussion by the importance of the subject, decided to settle the question before the judge announced his decision. This they proceeded to do in the usual stage-wheres.
Kansas audiences have always had the reputation of being individual and different. The debaters from Wisconsin were not disappointed in the one Friday night.
"Agricultural Students to Take Up Orchards," reads a headline in the Journal-World, over a story referring to the activities of the Lawrence high school. Evidently the high school is following in the steps of the University, which seems to have a policy of moving all the trees on the campus at least once a year.
Some men are so easy discouraged, Eugene V. Debus has given up hope of ever being president of the United States. He doesn't even intend to be a candidate any more.

Editor Daily Kansan:
With the instillance of certain members of the faculty that faculty members should not wear caps and gown at the commencement exercises this spring, other members of the faculty and members of the senior class are told to wonder whether or not this action is really the result of a desire to acquire experience and to initiate democracy among the faculty members.
Do these faculty members believe that to see the great commencement form and march down Mount Oread to the stadium, led by the unitarian faculty without capes and gowns the faculty without caps and gowns and finally by the long line of dresses uniformly, is a more impressive slight than to see a uniformity that would not be seen to see the faculty members in so many colored suits and dresses as are faculty members? Would the saving effected by this plan compensate for forming the dignity of a guest for the faculty would afford?
The seniors have already voted that the faculty wear cars and gowns and if their opinions are not convincing, they will be sent to the alumni to express themselves on the matter. They have been "through the mill" of commencement and "should be competent to judge. Why do not the alumni express themselves on the matter?" L. J. C.,

Holton Marecell, in her organ recital, in Primer classe Friday night, awrote strongly the triple handcaps she used to endorse edge for fear that the entire building was about to fall on their heads, unlimited glaring glaring into their eyes and meet the spectators. Miss Marecell demonstrated her mastery of her own curves and the instrument of her own control self-centered throughout the program.
Two of the lighter numbers seemed to prove the most attractive for the audience, which nearly filled the ramshackle room which houses the University's new organ. The Karp-krert "boonlight" and Dothinth "Caprice" both have an interesting suggestion of descriptive interpretation.
The "bip" numbers of the rocai were given at the opening and close of the program, and were adequately presented. A Franck number and two of Wilsher's pieces gave the organist an opportunity of displaying her musical wares. Russell's "Bells of Saint Peter" was displayed in two weeks and it is a number which does not seem to improve with repetition.

It is a shame that a program of the artistry of Miss Marcel's should be marred by the falling of portions of the roof; but the plaster was merely obeying the law of gravitation. The inexcusable thing was that the organ console should have been left on the floor level as in any picture theater. The console can be lifted, and it cannot be in an organ rectal, and it is unfair to both audience and organist not to have it so arranged.
