FEBRUARY 5, 1919. Plain Tales From the Hill After seeing Maxine Elliott do it so well, the University girl philosophizes thus: "Come on, thou pale pink cigarette that'hail at land of minaret. And let thy fragrant incense roll To gas my throbbing, sapient soul." "Avaint, respectability, Bohemia's the life for me; Too long I've lived with prudence pale. Gadzooks! I wish I could inhale." The men want five members on the honor systems discipline committee to the women's four because they think men will be up before the committee more regularly than the women? Oh, is that the reason? We thought that it was just because it took five men to teach four women in forming judgments. COME OUT OF YOUR HIDING COME OUT OF YOUR HIDING Have you noticed the peppery cheerleaders at the basket ball games this year? The K.U. cheerleaders are not annoying anyone with their gestures and screeching this season. John Ise "When I see some of the boys across the road in their gym suits I begin to wonder what's happening to the race. It would take a dozen of some of them to make a dust mop." IT DOES HAPPEN THOUGH IT DOES HAPPEN THOUGH it's a grand and glowing feeling to have the opportunity for the big parties of the year ask another man to her sorority party? A freshman was invited to take dinner with the Alemannia Club. When he returned home his friends asked him if the Club talked German or Norwich now. "Neither," replied the frosh, "They talk Current Events." Those at the show Monday night will remember the ballroom scene in which some of the local dramatic club talent played a leading part. It seems that Lucie Hovey, according to her testimony was more fortunate than the rest of the girls, who were the star of the scene. For she openly confesses that she drew a REAL man while the other girls nad as their partners just University fellows. SPEAKING OF GIFTS All kinds of packages have been coming from France this year, containing everything from love-bracelets and lace handkerchiefs and collars to egg-cups and German war-crosses. Miss Charles of the English department has them all beat when it comes to receiving novel presents: a foreign letter that he sent to the other day; a set of wristbands were enclosed with complimentals of one of her students. Yes, Phyllis, they were dead ones. The Phi Kappa Pais need some new curtains according to the Alpha Delta Pis. The girl say so themselves. SPRING ISN'T HERE YET ANYWAY SPRING HIS P T HEIR Coach Jay Bod was keeping time at the basketball game and sitting behind Rashid T. Church, c'20, Church he placed his hat under the chair he was sitting on. When the time for the end of the half arrived Bond pulled out his pistol and fired it under Church's chair. The result was a 2-inch hole in the top of Church's new spring hat. THIRSTY WOMEN AT LAST GET DRINK Members of the woman's basketball teams have developed a great interest in the dances given in the gymnasium after Friday night basketball games. Last week two bottles of distilled water were left after the dance and for the first time since the basketball season opened, the women were not forced to wait until they reached their homes to relieve their thirst. BACK TO NATURE Why have any seats at the Bowersock anyway? Those who had standing room last night said they had a fine time between acts. They sat down on the floor and had a very congenial time. No one stepped on them. It was more democratic and they could all get together better. Now they custom for the whole audience they could all sit in a circle and play 'Simon Says Thumbs Up' between acts. The only drawback is that it would accommodate a lot more people and that large crowds of men who had invited girls to go to the show and then called up at the last minute to say that they were all gone, and that they were all gone, would have to think up another excuse. PACING THE HARD TRUTH Some of the engaged men on this hill think they are very much henpecked. Sunday night two of them UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN were leaving one of the sorority houses, and as they went down the street arm in arm, this is a part of their conversation that a passivity "Did you happen to notice—'s thumb? Well, I'm right under it." "Yes, hoy. I can sympathize. Did you hear?" "Well, it's finger. Well, I'm right around it." A good many men on the hill are in this fix, but this is the first time that we ever heard two men admit it to each other.
