Kansas Law Makes April a Cruel Month
April is the cruelest month. breeding work out of lazy man.
And to insure that no man neglects spring cleaning, the State of Kansas, mixing desire and law in the dead past, has attempted by statute to stir dull man with a little life. Since 1913, spring cleaning—in April—has been required by law in Kansas.
James K. Logan assistant professor of law, demonstrating that a professor's research occasionally turns up information useful to the public, points out that section 12-1624 of the Kansas Statutes provides:
"That in the month of April in each year, the owners . . . of any real property ... shall cause said premises to be cleaned up of all . . . dirt, filth, sewage, sweepings, dung, excrement, compost, papers, stable manure, boxes, ashes, lumber, coal, wood, kindling, grass, weeds, vegetables, slips or litter of any kind. . ."
The statute also provides for either or both a $100 fine or 30 days in the county jail for violation.
Lithograph Sale Has Few Buyers
A sales exhibition of lithographs by three midwestern artists at the Museum of Art has drawn many inquiries but few sales.
The exhibition of 19 original signed lithographs by John Steuart Curry, Thomas Hart Benton, and Grant Wood is being sponsored by the Museum in connection with the current Wood exhibit.
"I think the sales will go well. There seem to be many people interested in buying lithographs but they have not made many decisions yet," said Mrs. Martha Remick, assistant to the Museum Director.
Mrs. Remick said only a few impressions of each lithograph are available.
The lithographs on sale are "Missed Leaf," $50; "Prize Stallions," $45, and "Stallion and Jack Fighting." $40, all by Curry.
"December Afternoon" and "Fertility," $60; "In the Spring," "Midnight Alarm," and "Honorary Degree," $40; "March" and "Shrine Quartet" $50, and "Sultry Night," $75, all by Wood.
"Aaron," $10; "Departure of the Joads," $50; "Planting," $18; "Man," $15; "Old Man Reading," $35; "Rainy Day," $25; "Sunday Morning," $30, and "White Calf," $10, all by Benton.
Darwin Talk Next Week
The sixth Humanities lecture will be given next Tuesday by Dr. William Irvine of Stanford University on "Darwin and Literature" at 8 p.m. in Fraser Theater. His talk will be in conjunction with the yearlong Darwin-Linnaeus celebration at KU.
During his three-day stay on the campus, Dr. Irvine will speak to classes in political science, humanities, drama, English, and journalism.
Next Monday, he will speak about "George Bernard Shaw and His Women" at an informal coffee in the Trophy Room of the Kansas Union. On April 22, he will discuss, with proctors and instructors in Western Civilization, Huxley's "Brave New World" compared with Orwell's "Nineteen Eighty-Four."
Dr. Irvine has done intensive research on Darwin, Huxley, and Shaw in libraries in the United States, England, and Italy. He is the author of "Apes, Angels, and Victorians," and of "The Universe of George Bernard Shaw."
He has published about ten articles about Shaw. His research on Darwin and Huxley was done in libraries at Harvard, the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia, the British Museum, and the Imperial College of Sciences in London.

Students Wait Until Last Day to Vote
Perhaps giving the students two days to vote in the campus elections has promoted a "procrastination campaign" on the part of many students who "will do it tomorrow."
In a Daily Kansan interview these students expressed their opinions.
Martha Barnes, Prairie Village freshman, "No, I haven't voted yet, because I haven't been up to Strong yet. I'll probably vote tomorrow. I think there has been too much mickey mouse, and it hasn't been taken seriously enough."
Janet Wagner, Belleville, Ill., freshman. "No, I haven't, mainly because I don't know any of the candidates. I'll probably vote tomorrow. I really haven't thought too much about the elections this year."
Sara-Leone Gaffey, Parsons freshman, "No, I didn't vote today, but I will tomorrow. I think the elections are kind of amusing."
Cynthia Fite, Leavenworth freshman. "No, I haven't been to Strong yet. I don't know if I'll vote tomorrow. Probably will. I think they're a farce because they aren't democratic."
Priscilla Ross, Merriam freshman. "Yes..I voted. I think the elections have been conducted well on the whole."
William D. Horner, Mermaid junior, "No. I haven't got around to it yet, but I intend to vote tomorrow. I didn't know the election was today. I really didn't pay much attention to the campaigns."
Jack A. Wiens, Belle Plaine freshman. "Yes, I voted today. I was impressed by the efforts of the parties."
Richard H. Brandt, Newton senior, "No, I haven't voted yet. I figured I had two days to do it.

I intend to vote tomorrow. It seems to me there has been a lot of shady dealings on the part of the political parties. There's been a lot of undue accusations and false information."
Kenneth R. Kuhlman, Great Bend freshman, "I haven't got around to voting yet, but I will vote tomorrow when I'm in Strong. I did get a little tired of all the trash mail in my mailbox."
Melvin E. Lowrey, Belle Plaine freshman, "I haven't got around to voting yet."
