VARSITY DANCES Already, readers of the Kanan are referring to the action of the Men's Student Council in changing Varsity dance prices and the subsequent action of the W. S. G. A. in declaring the bill unconstitutional as "that dance price tight". This is inaccurate terminology. SUNDAY, SEPT. 20, 1925 The price has nothing whatever to do with the action taken by W. S. G. A, at its meeting on Friday. Their protest was based rather upon the fact that the Men's Student Council passed and was attempting to enforce a bill expressly contrary to the constitutions of both Men's Student Council and W. S. G. A, and the rules and regulations of the University Senate. In all these authoritative documents, it is expressed stated that W. S. G. A. and the Men's Student Council we have to joint control of the Varsity dances, and equal representation on the Varsity Dance committee. In the constitution of the Men's Student Council, it is very clearly stated that no bill can be into effect until ten days after it shall have been published in the University Daily Kansas. Even if the price change had been constitutively "functioned by the W. S. G. A., the enforcement of the reduction, as originally planned at last night's Varsity, would have been unconstitutional." The passage and attempted enforcement of this bill is perfect material for these numerous oppositions of citizen government. Ignorance in government is an accusation frequently brought against the state and even against the nation. Why not begin reforms with intelligent law-making during college days? THE CROSS-COUNTRY RUNNER In singing the praises of the athlete whose sport is in vogue, a separate eulogy should be sung for the cross-country runner, to whom a gruelling guard of a few miles is just one of the requisites of his rigid training schedule. Cross-country running is one of the most demanding of all the sports in the curriculum. It means long afternoon spots plodding along some dusty road or across some stubble-grown field. Large crowds cannot gather to watch the runner in his preparation and few are the coaches who can follow him along his circulous route and render advice. His season parallels the football season, and his event is just a side-light for the milling crowds that gather to cheer the wears of the moleklin. He finishes between halves amid scattered, half-hearted cheers from those in the stands whose interest has not been attracted elsewhere. And at the end of the season, if he has been successful against his opponents, a minor sport letter is the reward. All hall to the cross-country runner, too! FREE SPEECH University students should have more than a casual interest in the action of Secretary Kellogg in refusing admittance into the United States to the British Community and member of the House of Commons, Sakiltava. Somehow the tradition of intellectual freedom, bent and battered though it may be from many set-backs, still persists about universities. The harrowing of Sakhalva raises the question of freedom of thought and speech as well as that of the right of a nation to protect its own institutions and ideals. This question should be a vital one with university people. OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN MEETING OF SOCIOLOGY MAJORS:— Copy received at the Chancellor's Office until 11:00 a.m. Vol. VI, Sunday, September 29, 1925 No.12 Vol. VI Sunday, September 20, 1829 No. 14 Sunday, September 20, 1925 All majors in the department of sociology are expected to meet Tuesday, September 22, at 4:30 p.m. in room 201 west Administration Building. This F. W. BLACKMAR SOCIOLOGICAL SEMINAR:- The seminar of sociology will meet in the seminar room in the library at 3:30 p. m. in Monday. All persons registered in seminar work are expected to attend. F. W. BLACKMAH Only an extremist will sympathize with Saklitva's political theories. But conservative and liberal alike can sympathize with his feelings in being denied admittance into the country that was once thought of as the sanctuary of the politically oppressed. The issue raised is not one of joyalty to the American form of government. It regards certain American ideals. Such stands as Secretary Kellogg's in this instance and Secretary Hughes' in imposing a condition of silence upon Count Karolyi, the Hungarian radical, are building up a tradition, a tradition of paternalism. Are we willing to trade the old tradition of freedom of speech and press, with all its honest dangers for the new tradition of *g*owerment paternalism, with its more insidious dangers? It's a good thing that the author of *Minstreet*, Babbitt and Arrowmith was not present at the first convoitation of the *School of Business* when the momentous question of lebry or wing-tip collar for the he official insignia went debated; *bartes*, a dance and self-advertising constituted the other "business" of his conversation—F. S. BACKING THE TEAM The prospects for a good team are righter than for several years. It omits for the students to do their homework not lacking the team needs. On Stadium field forty men are working out for the coming football season—probably one of the hardest a Kansas team has faced for years. The students owe this sound something more in the way of support than the callow indifference that characterized their attitude at the close of last season. Burton Kingsbury, c'20, is spending he week-end at his home in Burlingon. --to get a That is the question—what is a suitable name for this column? Read it yourself and decide.

All contributions must be in the form of a title or by a new name. The name of the person who engages the best name for the column will be published in a forthcoming issue of the paper. All engagements will be sent to the Editor-in-chief of the University Daily Kenman. Here's a new problem for the economist. What's wrong with this picture? The state has on its statute books a law prohibiting the sale and use of cigarettes. The state has on its pay roll a man whose chief duty is to pick up cigarette stubs from the state University campus. Could one call it economic or legislative waste? —J. S.
