IT'S UP TO US
This morning during convocation hour, part of the students went to the gym to hear noted athletes tell about the greatest track classic west of the Mississippi river, which will be held in our own stadium Saturday. A few hundred diders parked in Bricks and listened for an hour to the frenzied cries of the waiters.
Students have all kinds of ideas about attending the relays. There are some who simply do not care to go. There are many who would enjoy the Relays, but would "get a lot more kick out of a big time in the city." There are a few who went to convention, clapped and yelled loudly and left feeling that they had done their part toward making the Relays a success.
But the worst of the student slacker are those who buy tickets and go home early with a amusing complacent self-satisfied feeling of having done their share without having to attend the meet. Kansas does not want that kind of money in the box office. University loyalty is not represented by a pasteboard ticket, but by the use of it. What Kansas wants is the physical attendance of three thousand loud-yelling clean sports.
The Kansas Rails put the University before the public eye as no other event can. K. U. cannot engage in any other sport with schools in the cast or west, but next Saturday will bring athletes from coast to coast, and from Minnesota to the golf. This big event this year is drawing a thousand and picked athletes from one hundred institutions all over the country.
The biggest track classic west of the Mississippi—yet we, who are playing host to these thousand athletes and thousands of visitors, are not giving it half the support it deserves. This meet is your affair. Do your part.
The Law steps chorus will break forth the last of the week again. There will be some visitors upon the campus.
COLLEGE POLITICIANS
David Lawrence in his "True Story of Woodrow Wilson," now running in the Springfield Republican says, or makes Wilson say—
"I can't help thinking that compared with some of the college politicians the party politicians are amateurs. The party politician plays his hand openly. You always know what he is going to do. He always follows the same rules and is always up to the same purpose. A college politician should not be mentioned in the same breath. He is very shrewd, and you never know what he is going to do. He has the gift of speech and can make black look white, and I have been dealing with him for the last thirty years.
"When I was a candidate for governor of New Jersey, the opposition called me a schoolmaster in derision. I told them the definition of the word was a man trained to find out things and tell them to others as effectively as possible.
Every time they make hydrogen sulphide over in the chemistry building, limber cheese is sold as a perfume.
From the numerous replies coming in the Kansan gathers that they go down in the stadium every night just to be with the crowd.
OPEN MINDEDNESS
Everyone likes to be believed open minded and sport enough to hear arguments of the other side; and he is that way as long as nothing is said against his cherished beliefs and ideals. Take, for example, the racial question.
To bring about a better understanding between the races it is as important to understand how they actually feel against each other as it is to investigate the truth of the charges and to devise remedies for them. Those who want to bring about some settlement of the racial question should be prepared to bear not only true but also baseless charges against their race. Only in this way can they realize the extent of bitterness that really exists. This is necessary before any further step can be taken.
But this tolerance, this sportmanship is rather an exception than a rule, even in the most advanced communities. Members of one community do not like to hear even facts against their race unless they are stated diplomatically. The result is that they hardly get a true view of the existing situation and consequently make no great progress towards the betterment of inter-racial relations.
M'DONALD LEADS THE WAY
It will be interesting for Americans to watch the progress of Premier Ramsay MacDonald in establishing trade relations on a normal basis with Russia. Mr. MacDonald has gone further than any other high executive in the world dared to go, when he recognized Russia and insinulated that there was a chance for the country to get ahead in the world in spite of Bolshevism, anarchy, and radicals. The British labor leader leans toward some of the doctrines of the socialist almost too far to suit the old conservatives in the government.
The old guard will fight the attempt upon the part of the Labor government to settle things in shipshape style with Soviet Russia. The men of other parties fear that England herself might be swept with a flood of Bolshevism. Again they see a chance to take a slam at MacDonald. There is but one reason why England under any rule but the Labor rule would recognize Russia. That reason would be to gain more power for England by adding another ally. But Labor might have another motive in recognizing the country. Mr. MacDonald has demonstrated that he has faith in the ability of Russia. It will be interesting to see how far that faith will extend and what the Soviet response will be.
The Dawes report was finally submitted but it doesn't ring true to life. There is not a single cuss word in it
While on the subject, it might be a good idea to bring Mr. Dawes before the senate once more and let hire spill a few more high phrases on the subject of action.
Mr. Mellon threatens to quit if the senate does not quit throwing mud at him. At that it must be a come down after having people throw dollars at you all your life.
Then they would investigate him for having an oily tongue and for damming senatorial progress.
But it's a good thing George Washington is not living to throw one at the secretary. George will be remembered as the boy who threw an iron man across the Potomac where it is a mile wide.
At The Theater
Why the audience last night applauded the portrayal of a drunk waiter and barkeeper in the second act more enthusiastically than any other part of "The Deluge" is a question for the psychologist not the dramatic answer to answer. This act highlights the role of being the best thing about the play.
By Mary Wright Aber
In the play itself, in fact, lay the real merit of "The Deluge." Human nature is always interesting, and so skilful a representation of widely

Students going to camp, unless inoculated for typhoid within three years previous to date of camp opening, must take the preventive.

SENIORS:
Sadie, the only woman in the cast, was disappointing in that she neglected one of the prerequisites of acting and did not make her lines heard all over the theater. Pantomine in its place is effective, but prolonged. The actors' scene it became boreseme. Also, she was jinn and too sentimental.
And the thunder must not be forgotten. It succeeded spendly in providing a suitable and not too wooden bed for the night of many emotions.
The diploma fee of $10 is now due, and should be paid at the Business Office before May 1.
varying types of individuals brought together under stress of a strong emotional crisis, is real art. Cynical and a little depressing the play *Garden of the Heart* softly and convincingly the sloughing off of the bonds of social prejudice and economic expedition in the face of common danger—but it goes on to show just as inevitably how powerful are their hold after the danger is past.
The former board of trade man might forget his pride-concealed envy, and the board of trade man might forget his contempt during the night they spent sealed in the cellar saloon expecting to drown any hour, but they remember them the next morning. They just as the saloon keeper remembered that the wine he had been dissposing so freely was a commode; for which he should receive payment. "The Deluge" is a good play and the acting was for the most part fairly good amateur acting. Most of the characters began quite stiffly but they worked into their parts with

the Plymouth Congregational church last night. Mr. Butler, baritone, sang with great force and virility of feeling. Mrs. Butler, reader, gave the lightest skirt, and the heaviest garment with naturalism that was mastery.
"The Sicilian Vespers of Verdi" sung by Mr. Butler was perhaps the best of the musical section of the 1730s, a collection of Schnühenne knoun" by Technkowski.
Of Mrs. Butler's repertoire the scene from "Polaa and Franesca" by Stephen Phillips was the heaviest reading of the evening. Her executions were well designed, well by one person. She was always the character who spoke the line.
"Butterflies" by Coypee was a grimly beautiful poem in its interpretation by Mrs. Butler. Finally, the film gave the audience from the audience for ten minutes. Mr. and Mrs. Butler are former residents of Lawrence. Mr. Butler was predecessor of Duan D. M., without of the School of Fine Arts.
On Other Hills
The Law Night School of Creighton University has been discontinued, after twenty years. Owing to the ruling of the Association of Law Schools, that only those schools requiring two years of preliminary college credit may rank as Chas A schools, the officials have decided to commence the Night School in order to maintain the former standards.
The University of Arizona is publishing 900 copies of its annual "The Desert." Those 900 copies represent the subscriptions of over three-fourth of the student body at the university.

Don't give a cap "too much rope"
Just when you're hurrying the most zip! and away goes that shaving cream cap. The new cap on Williams has been lifted over. It's hinged on and can't get lost.
In shaving, too, Williams has just as noticeable improvements: Williams lather is heavier and more closely woven. It holds the water in against the beard. Result: quicker softening. Williams lather lubricates — no irritation friction. Last, Williams is decidedly helpful to the skin. It keeps your face comfortable on malted buttercream. There's no coloring matter in Williams—it is a natural oil, absolutely pure. Sav "Williams Hinge-Cap" to your dealer.

THE lvy of tradition is a slender support.
A man or a team or a college that clings to it, harboring back to the glories of yesteryear, is likely to be outstripped by some young but still rival. That is a sermon we have taken home to ourselves.

The Western Electric Company is proud of its fifty-four years of history. But it is a great deal more concerned with the next fifty-four—and that is why we have been talking to the college men of America month after month now for four years.
The future of this business depends not so much on the physical equipment we have built up as on the mental equipment which men of your generation are building—on your habits of study and conduct, on your right choice of a profession and your proficiency in it. So we have made suggestions for your guidance, with the conviction that they can help you—and us.
