The editor of "The Rod" the new well known Baker publication, was convicted and fined $100 and costs Wednesday. Perhaps the judge would like to take a trip to New Orleans.
KANSAS FIGHTS
Doubtless, since the victory over Washington, some of the older students on the Hill who recall the feats of the Kansas basketball of the past four years, have gone about with an "I told you so" smile on their faces.
Jayhawk victories within the past few days have placed Kansas in the top place in valley standing and have dropped those who humiliated her at the first of the season to lower levels on the list.
The Kansas team got off with it stumbling start this year, but since then it has more than redeemed it self in the eyes of its followers and admirers. Tomorrow night will mark the passing of another milestone in the schedule. Only two more games to play and then—?
The victory is not won yet. We must stand behind the team until the final whistle Monday night Everyone must do his share of the fighting.
ODE TO THE WRESTLERS
Wrestling, although a minor sport is more and more making itself worthy of the appreciation of the students.
Tonight the Kansas team meets Iowa State, one of the strongest teams in the United States, and chances of winning are good.
Intercollegiate wrestling is a rea-
sport. it is fast, for the man under-
neath must always think about the
time advantage his opponent is gaini-
ning; it is strenuous because it is fast;
it requires hard and consistent训
ing; it has little danger, for all pain
holds are barred; there is almost no
chance for foul play; and it is a game
in which skill and quick thinking play
an important role.
Thus far the Kansas wrestlers have done well. The match tonight will tell a lot about their possibilities in the Missouri Valley tournament. Two or three men are very likely to get firsts in the tournament if they go through the Ames match victorious.
While the wrestler does not have to spend as much time in the practice as is required in many sports, he must work hard. Not only must he train into good physical condition but he must train down to weight.
Wrestling can never attain the popularity of football or basketball, because it lacks the elements of team work; but it can and does make well-developed physical men out of the participants, teach them true sportsmanship and in so-doing gives the students opportunity to see a match of individual skill and strength.
STUDENT CONFERENCES
Some little comment has echoed about the campus concerning the action of the Men's Student Council in paying the expenses of two delegates to New Orleans for the recent midwest student conference.
The age-old question arises: Is the sending of delegates to conferences just a fad, or is there something definite and tangible resulting for the organization or body which sends a delegation across two or three states to a convention? If a vote were taken on the question there would be about as many "mayes" as "aves."
That a great deal of good in the
form of new and better ideas on an student government might come from such a conference as the one at New Orleans, about everyone will admit. But several questions arise. Do such delegations make the best of their time by studying the problems at band, or is a great share of it spent in entertainment? Granting that time is utilized efficiently, is a delegate usually able to carry home and present to his constituents the spirit which pervided the conference? And if he is able, the constituents avail themselves of the benefits which might be derived, or they can dangl in their old beaten paths, the same as if no conference had been sold?
No doubt the delegates to the New York convention, as individuals learned a great deal concerning the customs and traditions of other schools, and the methods used by them in solving their problems. We do not doubt their ability to carry a great share of the spirit of the convention back to the K. U. council. But unless more than the usual effort is put forth by these delegates n' putting into practice what they earned, the benefit which the student body will derive will not be appreciate.
THE MAY DAY TRADITION
Back in the days of the horse and buggy, man on MU, Orc gave cent to its excess energy in sanguinary chassis lights. Glorious days they were, but less viable times followed when authorities looked with such horror upon physical strife that they offered the student body a vacation in May Day in return for the abolition of all chassis lights.
This vacation came to mean a recurring memory of the days of battle when freshman and sophomore net in the annual class scrap to scratch and bruise each other and car clothing. It meant a celebration of the fact that days of bloody conflict had been succeeded by days of peace and unity between freshman and sophomore. The class crape cuded and the holiday became tradition.
Finally it was decided that a vacation on May Day was a waste of valuable time; tradition was not a heritage to be cherished, but rather memory to be blotted out forever from the minds of students. Thus one of the oldest and most cherished if University traditions was doomed o'bilation.
The tradition was discarded without attempt to save it for future generations of students. Many have questioned the wisdom of throwing way a tradition so distinctive and meaningful as the May Day tradition. It is the spirit of the day, anniversary of abolition of class rights, that counts.
Some are urging now that the radition and meaning of May Day be evived this year by inaugurating a set of freshman cap rules in keeping with the spirit of the old tradition. If this is done it will serve a double purpose; it will revive the old meaning of May Day and start a new meaning. It would be a worthy move.
Campus Opinion
It is quite likely that the working student who signs himself "BOW" in last night's Kansan has not talked with the administration about the proposition of student accounts. He has expressed himself violently opposed to the 50 cents charge per month on accounts below $60, without having investigated the other charges.
If "BOW" will investigate the amount of work connected with keeping track of a student account which averages below $50 per month, and then take into consideration that such an account is handled at a dead loss, he won't blame the banker for attempting to seek some avenue of revenge.
Quite likely "BOW" doesn't know that students with such accounts frequently write checks for as low as 7c, that a great many checks are filled out incorrectly, and that occasionally a woman student will call a local bank to ask for her balance, telling only after a long search by a clerk for her name among the depositors, that her money is in a bank at Pamperin's Place.

It isn't unfair, for it is merely a charge for service rendered. If it won't worth money deposited in safe keeping in a real bank he wouldn't keep it there. Also a 100% self-supporting student. M, R.
At the Concert
"Summer Evening," with incidents
solo by Ray Wright, was one of the most pleasing members in the second part. An amusing bit of realism was provided by several members of the club in "Old Jonah Had a Whale of a Time in a Whale."
The concert which the Men's Gleo Club gave last night showed them to be eminently capable of representing the Missouri Valley in the national tournament.
The first part of the program was probably of more interest since it contained the three contest numbers, "Labyrinth," "Labyrinth of the West" and "Labyrinth out and the swift movement of "John Peel" was irreversible. "I'm a Jayhawk" as song by the glee club could have helped to arouse the unified enthusiasm.
Two groups of vocal soles added to the attractiveness of the program. Prof. John M. Bastow has an excelent advantage in the Prologue from "Pagliared" and in the "Armorer's Song" from DeKoven's "The Robin Hood." Prof. Theodore C. Owen sang Scott's "The Witch." Prof. Robert Mine which were well received.
Howard Kubic showed a great deal of technique in the performance of Rubinstein's brilliant "Staccato" on his drums. In the second Chopin's "Waltz in C Sharp Minor."
Mrs. Amy H. Larrimore displayed a pleasing soprano voice in the incidental solo part of "Far O'er the Bay." One of the most popularly received club of songs was that of the glue club quartet.
"Goin' Home," an arrangement from Dovarak's symphony "From the New World" was haunting in its primitive melody. For the final selection the glee club sang the familiar "Crimson Blue" song ending with the "Rock Chalk."
After the Dance-is the proper place to take a date if you would
temper her with dainty dishes.
