ARE YOU? WEDNESDAY, JAN. 14, 1990 Every night from five-thirty until seven, and then spare moments besides, fifteen men get out and work, work, work, work, with a basketball so that Kansas will have a basketball team that she may well be proud of. Think of the time and energy these men put into their play. Think of the pleasures they deny themselves in training for the games. These men are the men who are actually giving something for the games. These men are the men who are actually giving something toward putting K. U. first. What are you giving? Are you giving the little that you can easily give? Are you going to the games? Are you supporting the team? Are you yelling for the boys to win? Are you pulling for a Missouri Valley Championship? Would you like to see Kansas beat Missouri in the two games here next week? (That would do a little toward that Thanksgiving day game). If you are, and if you are earnestly striving to PUT K. U.FIRST, you should be looking forward to Friday and Saturday nights when Kansas meets Ames in the first Missouri Valley games of the season for Kansas. Pack that old gym to the fullest capacity, and support you team. The Minnesota Journal is printing a series of articles for the purpose of promoting the building of a new auditorium at the University of Minnesota. Wouldn't a little outside work in Kansas help K. U. in its million dollar drive for a new stadium? At this time of preparing for examinations and getting up back work, there is much to think about. However, remember that today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. KANSAS, THE PIONEER According to stories sent out from Topeka concerning the arguments, pro and con, on the labor bill which is before the legislature, it is very evident that there is a strong sentiment, not only in Topeka but all over the state, in favor of taking the step that will make Kansas a pioneer among the states of the union in labor legislation. Monday, William Alen White appeared before the legislature and stated that he was in favor of the bill as the only available solution to the labor situation. Mr. White said he believed that ten years from now, the labor unions all over the country would thank Kansas for establishing a court of industrial relations for the solution of their problems. It is true, as Dr. E. J. Kup, a Topeka minister, explained to the logis lature, that the public is the party briefly concerned in most of the disputes between capital and labor, and hat the public, the third and least considered party, is the one to suffer in case of industrial war. A CONVERSION NEEDED Then why should Kansas and the rest of the country not duly take the public into consideration and afford to the people the protection which they should rightfully have? Though the hold-ups of K. U. students the past week have been harmless and fairly inexpensive, as hold-ups go, the Lawrence police force, wheehever he is, ought to take steps to convert the culprits. The practice is a habit forming one and does not have a cultural influence. Another objection is brought out by one of the victims, who said, "The Colt shivers that run up and down my spine made the event positively disagreeable. POLITICAL PETTIFOGGERS POLITICAL PETE FROOGERS "The trouble with the politics of this country is that they are peti-fogers." Recently a bill calling for a literacy test for all immigrants was brought up in Congress. Is passed the house easily when voted on by acclamation but when someone called for the Ayes and Noses it lost by a large vote. Did the congressman change their minds in that short time? Obviously not. They though the measure a good thing but when called upon to go on record as for it they betrayed the country for a few paltry immigrant votes. The United States needs constructive immigration legislation. It needs specific, effective measures leading to Americanization, but the indications are that neither the Democratic nor Republican politicians will allow anything to be done along any line, because they know that anyone who does things makes enemies and anyone who makes enemies loses votes. The conservation of votes seems to be the strongest plank in both platforms. Sometimes we hope a party will be started that will appeal to the country on constructive lines rather than with capering criticism. Sometimes, we hope, a party will have the nerve to fight for something specific rather than back in platitudes. Sometimes we hope, a party will arise with a mission, a party with a strong constructive American purpose. FIGHTING DISEASE The Philadelphia Public Ledger is to be commanded for its campaign against disease. While most newspapers are filling their editorial columns with political reading, the Public Ledger still regains the combating of disease important enough to deserve the most prominent editorials in that paper. Too much cannot be done in the fighting of disease. With population on the increase, the problem of keeping all these people will grow larger and larger. More and more men and more and more institutions must give their time to discovering new remedies for diseases almost as new. Rockerfeller's Christmas gift of $80,000 to be spent in research work has given the movement a new impetus and interest. But $50,000, 000 is only a small amount when compared with the sum that has been and will be spent in medical research. The fight that must be contagued against the germs that are always endangering mankind will require more and more work and money as time goes on. The Public Ledger is doing effective work in spreading propaganda to make the fight more successful. DRESS TO DISTINGUISH TOKIO GIRLS From the Philadelphia Public Pedicler. A new school costume has been adopted by three large chools for girls in Tokyo. The freshmen girls will have jacketss fashioned of pink material and skirts with black pumps. The girls will wear blue jackets and the third year maidens, in virtue of their greater maturity and advancing customs, will be privileged to have their coats cut from brown cloth. The Tokio schools making the dresses are the Yuna Girls' high school and the Atomi Girls' high school. Music lovers were doubtless pleased at seeing Percy give a concert-grande the Gratring twist.

What we would like to know is which group of the dead reports such a small number of members. Nony Senshuls wants to know if wood alcohol has advanced in price on account of the recent increased demand. An automobile is not the only thing which requires one to "get out and get under" as Percy Grainger can testify.

We want all of your citizenship to forget European blood antagonism and keep in mind that there is only one class in this country—American. Honesty and uprightness of character are all that count here. In this country we want but one flag, one language, and one real deal—that of American democracy." Or braved the couching green eyed jungle night— We believe that the country eventually will settle down to work on a peace basis and not a war basis. None the less, since the country seems in some instances so slow and uncertain about the aforesaid settling, we need not fail to record approval of certain remarks made not long ago in the past. We think Wood, Wood, while addressing a body of new-mown American citizens. Yes. One flag in America is enough. It must not be monochromic, and is must not have birds on it.

Such a large greeting will be exchanged daily with the Webster high school. "A Get Your Paddle" column in the Winfield Oracle is on doubt read with interest except by the intended readers.

NO ADVANCE IN PRICE A writer on the Kansas Industrial- ist comes forth with the statement that he has saved $1025 during the year of his retirement, the increase in the price of shaves. This came as no surprise to Dr. Allen's many friends in Warrensburg as his wonderful success with the Warrensburg team, has marked him as one of the best, if not the best, basketball coach in the West. Many brilliant basketball men were developed by Dr. Allen while in Warrensburg and his great ability about coach and get the fight out of his man will develop a winner for K. U.—Warrensburg Student. One hundred and fifty students of Dupaun University in charge of 15 members of the faculty, boarded special interurban cars last week and farmed to cut grass. The mud was taken to the University in trucks. Coach Schlademann, who has been coaching the basketball men, has taken charge of the track team. In past years at the University of Colorado, it has been the custom for the freshmen to pay for any damages incurred in celebrations. Citizens pay the freshmen an amount to the amount of $150 and the freshmen are asking for help. Smith College with 1998 students is the largest woman's college in the world, with Wellesley and Simmons second and third. But the University of California has 385 co-els, North Carolina has 383 Boston and Wisconsin 2368 each. Dr. Forrest C. Allen, the director of Athletics at Kansas University, who was for so many years our own Athletic Director, has taken over the coaching of the K. U. basketball team Business Training Made Me Successful A scientific training in modern business methods and preferences is absolutely essential to the young man who has ambitions to go to the top.
