THE KANSAS RELAYS
all in its power to get the students to remain over for the great Kansas Relays. It is up to the students heed this call and put K. U's great est athletic show over in the best possible style. Shall it be said by the returning visitors to Kansas that the students lack loyalty enough to support their big event of the season? The University has extended the time for vacation to start until Friday night in order that students desire to go home may do so after the Relays. Now for a student to take advantage of this by going home before the Relies would be unfair to those who intend to stay. It is almost treason to the school. The Kansas Relays is not a trifling event to be run off in one day and forgotten for another year. Dozens of men and women have been working on the great event for weeks to insure its success, but the whole success of the track carnival depends upon the students themselves. A few, too few, of the organizations realize this and have already voted to attend in a body. Others will make the same provision before the week is over. But there will be many students, too many, who dash home Thursday or Friday in spite of hell and high water, double cuts, Doctor Allen, the Kansas, fraternity regulations, and
Ninety-five institutions will be the judges of student conduct the 19th. One thousand athletes will carry away impressions of the University of Kansas and one thousand opinions will be broadcast from one end of the United States to the other. Shall these visitors of Kansas spread the word at their respective institutions that the school of the famous Rock Chalk is dead? Shall they sneer at Kansas as an institution that tried to put on a great athletic event and failed? Well, NO!
Some of these reckless drivers who are not wreckless drivers seem to be driving on the theory that one good turn deserves another.
OUR GOVERNMENT TAKES A HAND
I can feel only one way about chil dren—Herbert Hoover.
These words express the sentiment of thousands of Americans, to whom the thought of the terrible sufferings which the children of Germany are experiencing is almost unbearable. It was, no doubt in the spirit of these words that the House of Representatives recently passed a resolution appropriating $10,000,000 for the purchase of food supplies for starving German children.
It is only reasonable to hope that the Senate will be prompted by the same motive of thought when the resolution comes up for consideration.
Far more is included in the question of sending relief to these sorrowning and suffering ones than the more meeting of a physical human need. If this call is heeded it means the taking of a great step toward the mitigation of the past-war animosities.
A "Yankee" seems to have found a solution for the European economic puzzle. Even France grudgingly admits that there could be worse proposals than Dawes'. All that remains now for peace is Germany's acceptance, the consent of the Senate, the evacuation of the Rahr, the recognition of Russia, a revision of the Versailles treaty, and a few other minor details.
COMMITTEE
The big show in Washington is still playing to a crowded house. The attraction for the coming week will be a little comedy-drama entitled "The Bluff," featuring Secretary Mellon, Mr. Coolidge, Senator Coona, supported by a strong cast from the Internal Revenue Investigating committee and the senate.
The plot monotonously resembles those of the other productions of the Washington company, being mainly dependent for its effect on mud-aling and investigational hysteria. Melon threatens to resign, charging that the committee is only trying to stir up a mess in his department without any cause, that they are getting too nasty about his private business affairs, and furthermore, that they haven't any business investigating at all.
A dramatic moment thrills is provided when President Coolide's note is read to the Senate, denouncing them for their action in the investigation. That is "rights are used as a subterfuge to cover unwarranted intrusion," says the President, who goes on to say that the body had better stay within its constitutional and legal rights in conducting investigations. Here is where the President should be reminded that it was Lincoln who said that there are times when part of the constitution must be violated in order to maintain the whole of it.
Carlyle has said that the great occasion has always brought forth the great man. We cast our eyes hopefully toward Washington with our faith still unwavering.
THE MEN WANT TO KNOW
NOW it so happened in the past week that honored visitors came to our campus and carried away a few impressions and left a few words of advice last week. One of these men was Syud Hossain and the other was William Allen White. Both of these distinguished gentlemen were agreed upon one thing. It was that only women can ask an intelligent question. That is all right, and most of the men will agree to it.
As a matter of curiosity however some of the men would like to ask a question. Like all other men's questions this one will lack intelligence but there is nothing wrong in trying. It is simply this, "If the women are the only ones that ask intelligent questions, then why in the name of an Algerian prayer mat don't they ask some?"
The newspapers in connection with a wedding, usually describe in great detail everything the bride wears except the look of triumph.
Campus Opinion
Is It Fair?
County Clubs were proud to tell the folks back home was the fact that the Athletic Association maintained some twenty or more tennis courts which the students could use at any time free of charge. Now comes a proposal to prohibit the playing of tenessee or more many can play. This ruling works a hardship on all cut-of-door recreation lovers, but is especially severe on those who need the recreation and relaxation the most, those who are working their way through school.
No one maintains that there is any harm in spending a whole Sunday foreseen in bed. No one attempts to prohibit hiking, or auto driving even if you go for a group game or group takes in a Sunday show. A secluded poker game gets by without censure, because it is played in a stuffy room, but tennis, which is out in the open and in plain view is to be prohibited. It is better that students should spend their Sunday reading racy features in our Sunday papers as do many of the students. You ought to congregate in someone's parlor and exchange choice bits of gross. Of course these pastimes are carried on indoors where they do not shock the moral ideals of the afternoon joy-rides. Surely no one could deny the student his inherent right to participate in these leading indoor sports, but in the name of all that is supposed to happen in a friendly game of tennis.
Tennis provides healthy outdoor recreation, a wholesome association of the axes, its very nature begets

honesty and sportsmanship and best of all it is accessible to the common student who isn't out for other athletics. If the proposal is adopted the gates will have to be locked and the students must not enter the students out into the country where no one can see them. There is, of course, nothing to hinder them from staying in a stuffy room with a book that has grown to be a hated thing while their minds and bodies call out for an hour's relaxation. In other words they might be doing their greatest good?
There is an article in the latest number of the Oread Magazine dealing with the students' lack of interest in current affairs off the fill in paper, and this was justly justified in some of his statements the general idea is all too true.
Bricklayers and harvesters do discuss politics, it is true, but usually with an uniformed and bigtored outlook. College men, therefore, are more likely to stand the political discussions of the time. But do they? The fact that a large number of students not only do not understand political situations, but do not even attempt to discuss them, which is evident every day on the Hill.
Four students were seriously injured when a riot broke out on the William Jewell College campus at Liberty, Mo., March 28. The students were celebrating their annual Work Day, when three seniors attempted to remove ties and white shirts from all other students. The
FORREST L. NOLL, President.
The deeds of men in the world outside seem to hold positively no attraction for a great number of women and men here. The Y. M. C. A. attempts to bring before the students once a week a man who is qualified to speak upon the political phases of this and other governments, and yet out of three thousand students about sixty of seventy-five, will be gathered at these meetings. Conventions draw a fairly large crowd but the gym's never crowded for one, unless it be a two meeting

Fight The Moth
The moth knows his stuff and likes to chew on a spot. If there are no spots or dirt he just naturally starves to death. Help starve him now by having your clothes cleaned.
Have your winter clothes, furs, etc., thoroughly cleansed before laying them away for the summer then when you get them out next fall they won't be full of moth holes.
