The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students to go further than by going more printing the news by standing up, playing no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, and to satisfy the students of the University.

"SENTIMENTAL RUBBISH"
"Girls and other students vs. faculty" was the line-up at the University of Minnesota a few days ago. The students claimed that in the publishing of the Minnesota Daily, the faculty put personal views before the real news.
Great exception was taken by the students to an article by one of the faculty on "Sentimental Rubish." This article was an attack upon the activities of the students: beauty contests, entertainments, etc.
The young women of the university who were in the beauty contest held a meeting and made reply to the article in verse, through the columns of the Minnesota Daily—after the time of the faculty editing had passed.
"CHOOSE BY BRAINS"
The verse ran:
CHOOSE BY BLAIR!
(Not hair! Mebbe So—Mebbe So)
We congratulate the faculty
On its undubted knack to see
The sordid side of everything we do—
If we merely try to rest us
From the weary thoughts that pest us
We're disgraces to the college thru
and they
Still we hazarding some guesses
That the girl with lovely tresses
W outshine the brainful maiden ius
the same.
And we really must acknowledge that many students at K. U. would back up the Minnesota girls, for they feel that there is too much squeamishness on the part of the faculty. Even here in Kansas we have such foolishness as "so many chaperons are necessary," "boys should not be allowed to see the girls play basketball." etc.
We're with you, Minnesota!
The University of California is installing a clock that will keep time correctly to the hundredth of a second. We fear that the students there will not appreciate it as would we who have had experience with a campus "stop-clock" that doesn't even get down to the hundredth part of a week.
BEAUTIFYING THE CAMPUS Wouldn't you be proud of a beautiful campus?
Plans and suggestions without number have been submitted unauthoritatively for the beautification of the campus. Up to date nothing definite has been done in regard to the matter. The Board of Administration has announced its willingness to help but await definite action by the University authorities. Superintendent Shea some time ago declared that the idea would receive his hearty support but awaits the concerted cooperation of the "powers that be."
The removal of trash and junk, the sedding of barren spots and clay banks, the trimming of trees, and the planting of shrubbery in the proper places, are some of the great needs that require work and funds, which can be readily supplied if only the proper move be taken. In Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith, the University has a competent landscape artist and designer whose assistance can be secured at any time.
It is to be hoped that the campus "clean-up campaign" will be started in due time so that we will be able to show our visitors that we take pride in the appearance of the University grounds, and that we are proud of the campus which we tread during the days of our college life.
CARRANZA AND MEXICO
Two years ago this month, Venustiano Carranza, present head of the defacto government in Mexico, began his rise to power by refusing to recognize the Huerta government and by starting the first rebellion against it in the state of Coahuila. His action largely determined the course of the United States in refusing to recognize the second dictator and the fate of Huerta was sealed. During the next few months the rise of Carranza was rapid, and at the close of the year 1913 he was leader of a revolution which soon succeeded in driving Huerta from the country.
Events of the last month seem to indicate that Carranza, despite his early success, is doomed to follow the course of all the Mexican leaders in the recent turbulent years, and that intervention on the part of the United States will be necessary before the country can be brought back to a normal condition. Whatever the outcome of General Funston's expedition, the student of history cannot fail to find dramatic interest in the events of the southern republic during the last few years.

Thus when a university lets escape into the world a corrupt lawyer, a careless engineer or specialist, or a journalist without ideals, the whole fiber of spans, arches, railings, buttresses of the great bridge of humanity is imperiled by inferior material.

SQUEAMISHNESS
I would like to register a kick against the recent rulings of the "powers that be" in regard to the exculcation, and the punishment in the 1962 basketball tournament.
To claim that it was improper for men to view such exhibitions, is a conviction based on false modesty and prudishness to the superlative degree. The University in the past, especially during the present year, has been burdened with such an effort that there any harm in watching the healthy, scientific exercise of women in the course of a 40 minute basketball contest?
the enforcement of such an "antiman" rule indicates that there is a lot of "squamishism" so much where "when you smoke there is bound to be a little fire."
After the final game Saturday night, the writer overheard two boys' teams say that if the same rule were in vogue next year, they could have won. They were teams that placed high in the championship race, too.
I have heard this sentiment seconded heartily by hundreds of University men, who wanted a chance to their friends and relatives in action.
Many wondered at the lack of interest in the tournament and at the small attendance. To this I may say that these "non-men's" games were to blame. Is there more harm in letting the men watch a team of 6-8 year olds play in school glits to see a队 of boys playing in "abbreviated" trousers?
Most of what we do and say dies in a week. Thus it is with what appears in the newspapers, with what is heard at the dinner table, and with what is said to others. One adjustment between this statement and the continuity of the human progress is to think that every sentence we say or write is forming the stones in a great bridge. This bridge is slowly advancing over vast seas and mountains covered by thousands of land to which humanity may sometime come.
Hoping the Kansan will take an interest in this matter and give the "powers that be," an editorial "skinning." I remain.
A Disappointed Student.

DICKINSON AUTHOR
Now that Mr. G. Lowsen Dickinson is coming to K. U., it is timely to call the attention of the student and the general public to an authorizing a wide reputation. This work, "The Greek View of Life," by G. Lowsen Dickinson, M.A. (Methuen & Co., London, 1898), is a contribution to a University Exclamation
Mr. Dickinson gives the raison detre of the book in his preface: "The following pages are intended to teach Greek literature and thought, for those, primarily, who do not know Greek. Whatever opinions may be held as to the value of translations, it seems clear that it is only by their reading that they attain to any knowledge of Greek culture; and as I believe that culture to be still, as it has been in the past, the most valuable element of a liberal education, I have hoped to give the general idea of the Greek view of life."
Every alert and inquiring mind with confess an interest in "Things Greek," even if he has not been able to follow it, will be interested in Dickinson's book may well serve as an introduction, for some earnest student, to a rich field which, through supposed inaccessibility, has been left untitled, and which will allow you to reveal the versatility of the author; "The Greek View of Religion;" "The Greek View Of The State"; "The Greek View of Individual"; "The Greek View of Art." There are two copies in the library.

THE STRING QUARTET
Why do most music-lovers consider
the most perfect form of instrumental music? They consider it so because it is the purest, the most unadulterated mode of musical expression. In the opera we have all the dramatic appendages of the stage to detract from the music. In the full orchestra we have the drums, the big brass instruments, the dramatic bass viols. But the string quartet, while retaining the ensemble of the orchestra, has none of its adornments, none of its extra-musical qualities. It is pure music. The true music lover is never so thrilled as when he hears the opening bars, of say a Beethoven Quartet, surge forth in their strength, their harmony, their melody, from the strings of two violins, a viola, and a 'cello—each in the hand of an artist. Have you ever felt that thrill?
The Shostac String Quartet comes here on Mar.30
Watch for these music-talk adds—They will appear each day.
