HILL POLITICS
The annual popularity contest to the Men's Student Council election—is less than four weeks distant. The campus politics are slowly getting their candidates greeted for the marathon. Men are being picked because of their popularity on the Hill; their ability is sure vote得ters. Their best qualifications must be a long string of activities.
When we vote for Bill Jones for college representation on the Student Council, we do so because he it is. We are proud of our students; we should we give him the favor.
Political issues, as was pointed out in this column recently, play a minor role in our student elections. Either there are no issues to be decided on, or the two political parties are afraid to take a definite stand on any of the questions which face student government.
The old planks of "more student government," "student control of student affairs," the "grade the prof" slogan, and all of the other meaningless phrases of past elections have been taken about as seriously by the student vaxes as they were presented by the parties. And in a majority of cases, a careful analysis of the platforms of the rival parties would show that both were for the same things.
If a party would come out and say that its candidates, if elected, would do such and such things, then the students could give a definite expression of their opinion. Popularity of the individual candidate would thus be tracked for the more important problem of deciding an issue. And the party whose candidates were elected would win the confidence of the student body.
This spring the politicians will have a chance to do some real constructive work. Important problems face our student government. Such problems as the honor system, the point system, and complete control of disciplinary powers by the student government must be made the issue of the election.
It is two million years hence. Man is a creature with a big bulging head supported on a silver-like body, and has a large jaw and maybe instead of feet.
LOCKING INTO THE CRYSTAL

As physical bulk mealt nothing back there in 1925 except for hardness and the power to withstand disease, ye person of the great avoid-depends has disappeared. Only thin What a heaven for the fat woman!
So is the human race as it will be two million years from now, as pictured by Prof. Contrast Tharadhane a scientist of Northwestern University.
Society is very different physically and mentally in this new era. Mechanical devices have long ago gone away with the need of physical prowess and the use of the muscles has somewhat disappeared.
By regulating the glands it has become possible to produce children who will be workers and have intellectual interests. A lucky age!
WHAT PRICE HALOS
Do you want a bibble? You can get one without much trouble and possibly you can gain everlasting fame at the same time. In fact you may even go down in the history as one of K. U's "greatest something-or-other". And, if the fates bring to you, it is entirely possible that you will come across someone who gets yourself reproduced in platinum for picture reprints to ensure union.
Here's the secret. All you'll have to do is be a trifle less careful than in the past when you come on the hill in the morning and one of our emergency spiders with hooks you from the tree will get into your tube that might be critical.
As for the fane—well that is another question. If something constructive actually comes out of net, big-headed and public-spirited net, and steps are taken to ramp up security, then fane will surely be yours.
You'll have to act quickly though because a great many students and faculty members have become invincible candidates for the honor午利 and it isn't all according to the rules. You'll have to be the master to be an unwilling one.
The proposition is really quite easy and you are bound to have co-operation on every hand. The speakers will be most obliging and you won't be feeling a thing by the time you hit the pavement. The clauses are that you'll have the hole at least long before you hit. Think it cover carefully but watch your step. Before you do anything you want to be sure that fame will be your, and that can't be promised.
By all means ensure yourelf that your act will call zone attention to this already obvious situation and that you will be making the campusplain. Plain every day suicide is an
ant-acclimatization just as speeding across a crowded campus is. Perhaps, after all, it would be better to wait and let one of the unwilling candidates enter the room before others come in sooner or later under present conditions, and, if people can't see the situation now, they would probably 'fill it on' it then.

COMMENCEMENT
While we are planning to make commencement this year more of an occasion and are urging the faculty to wear caps and gowns to add dignity to the procession, can we not add importance to the week by encouraging underclauses to remain in town for the exercises?
In former years when the commencement exercises were held in the gymnasium there was no room to accommodate all the relative and friends of the graduating class to any nothing of students. But since they are being held in the Stadium there is plenty of room for every student of the University and they would receive much of inspiration and benefit in witnessing the ceremonies. Especially is this true of the Juniors. Three-fourths of the students who graduate each year have never seen a commencement at the University until they come to their own because of the custom of underclassmen of taking the first train out of town as soon as their last examinations are completed.
In many schools underclassmen are required to remain for commencement. It is beneficial in that it acquaint them with the customs and traditions of the school and it inspires them to compete their own course. It is the one time of the year when the alumni come back to visit the University, meet their old friends, and exchange experiences of former days. How much it would help to carry on the spirit of the University if the underclassmen could be here to greet them and hear them talk of old times. It has been suggested that if underclassmen, and especially juniors, had some part in commencement week they would be more likely to remain for it. Why not have an all-University party in the gymnasium the night of commencement—a farewell party to the seniors? Here every
Before the end of the spring semester, 14 gift scholarships and 12 loan scholarships are to be enforced, as set forth in the catalog, for use in the year 1983-85.

UP AND DOING OR DOWN AND OUT?
Your clothes show what you think of yourself. In the estimation of others, they mark you as up-and-doing or down-and-out. A "hand-tailored" opinion of one's self goes hand-in-hand with hand-tailored clothes. That's the kind we sell at a price not much higher than garments hopped-skipped-and-jumped through a factory.
