In his repertoire of spanking, reverberating *phraseology* Schwarz has one star among the many of the mechanical boys in Marvin Hall and they went to as the team will go after the Wildcat Saturday; namely as a small and hungry boy going through a piece of custard pie. This new offering of Schwartz's startouts out with a long-drawn series of appropriate barnyard calls, which entailed in a lead, explosive "Bull!" It was also impressed forcefully at the engineers' rally that after afternoon will see the last open field practice on McCook Field before the game.

We all know that American fashion comes from Paris and while I was in Paris some of the best-looking, in fact, some of the worst. I ever saw were dresses in corduroys. First man: "They drink it out of a bottle where I came from." Sae: They drink it out of a barrel ot home." Second man: "They take it right from the still where I live." Where does their love go? Where do these people live anyway? "Oh, girls," exclaimed an innocent but very much excited woman, "I gotta dinner for dinner tonight down at the Alpha Zebra Delta house.

And, pray, who will occupy them, besides the politicians and the Chancellor. MORGAN EMPHASIZES TRUE AMERICANISM W. Y. Morgan of Hutchinson Talked to 100 Journalists Tuesday Newspapers Must Lead Tells of Splendid Loyalty of The Jayhawkers in France "Leadership is the function of American newspapers today," and W. Y. Morgan, editor and owner of the Hutchinson News, Tuesday night, speaking before a hundred numbers of the Associated Journalists at Plymouth High School. "In the past the newspaper was regarded as a sort of a liability to the community—a necessary evil, which had to be supported by the people. Now the newspaper profession is relatable and remunerative, and offers benefits that are more attractive than an advancement to men and women who are willing to work—and lead." Mr. Morgan told the differences between French and American newspapers—he was in Europe for eleven months, beginning in October of last year to publish his work emphasizing especially the fact that with very few exceptions all French publications are retitled by a single concern, this organization practically dictates the volume of issue, and the period covered. He is the author of published signed editorsials, the same as that followed by the Hutchinson News, came in for its share of praise from the speaker. News in foreign papers is far inferior to news in English, but then three days late, and then often inaccurate according to Mr. Morgan. Reminiscing of his old university days at K. U., and of his experiences in France, the editor said, "One night I met a young student who told me 'thing American, a bunch of old K. U.; men got together; and we gave the good old Rock Chalk, and we sang the Crimson and the Blue. It seems to me a wonderful thing that over there, in the midst of war and suffering, men will remember their old Alma Mater; just listen to the ample of the way the 'grad' remember the University, and the way you should remember it after you leave. I haven't missed but one commencement since I graduated in '88; that once was last spring when I was over 35, and will miss another one if I can possibly get to Laverne in June. "The Jayhawker in France was a wonderful thing; he was everywhere; even among the M. Ps. But the Jayhawker in peace should be a more wonderful thing, helping to promote Americanism. All over the country you are forced to find there are foreigners at the bottom of the trouble. At Gary General Wood arrested twelve men, and all were unnaturalized foreigners with unprounounced names. It is the duty of Jayhawkers, and all Americans, to drive out these men. Foreigners who are opposed to our institutions should be sent home immediately. We owe it to ourselves, but we must do so for Americans who are dead in France today, to keep the country free from foreign agitators who try to overthrow our government." LEAVE BOOKS ALONE Constant Abuse Of Library Privileges Must Library privilege will be taken from all students caught taking books from the library without permission. Spooner Library today.

"Several students have been caught and others have been warned against further abuse of this privilege. Any students caught from this time on will be made an example of. The most serious abuses have been in the history seminar and the home economies reserve shelves." There will be a meeting to organize a medical club for medic and pre-medic women in Dr. Bacon's office 7 p.m. Thursday.
