Plain Tales from the Hill
Romulus B. Church, sophomore College, who sent out a call before the holidays for the names of all students—women included—having February third as their birthday, has succeeded in getting six student posts Pi Upsion senior, a Daily Kansan reporter who wears the "cords," and Acacia junior, the owner of one of the Hill restaurants, and one woman.
Arthur "Shorty" Hoffman, a senior law from Enterprise, entertained his two younger brothers, John and Ray, at the Kappa Sigma house last Friday and Saturday. "Shorty" took his two brothers to Kansas City Sunday to show them the wonders of the big town.
A professor in a ten-thirty freshman German class Monday recited to his class at length concerning the legendary history of a fraternity "house-polony" that filled how the Greek brothers had pled all pages of the events of the faithful "beast" the night preceding the chem quiz and how, alas, in the hour of trial the "brute" band. The department had the day before received a tattoo for test tubes these same tubes were not of the same weight as those preceding. The class held over five minutes.
The advocates of "stop on the tool must take off their hats to C. A. Dykstra on his promptness in obeying the rules of class dismissal. So diligently is this member of the faculty striving to live up to the requirements, that in his political science class Monday the whistle caught him midway in the pronunciation of legislature. Thereon he hung. The class rose and passer out.
Louis B. Gloyne, senior college medic from Kansas City, Kansas, is engaged in shipping live stock as a side line for bringing in extra money. To this side line Louis has added another side line. In and about the stock yards many dogs homeless dogs-float. The K.U. medical school is not of interest about the color nor the lineage of its dog subjects. Dogs are dogs so善良 they are possessed of abundant meat to render good reflex action. Over Saturday and Sunday Louis picked up three "dorgs" and billed them to the K. U. Medical School.
Carl Hicks, one of K. U's, great baseball captains, is now working for the government in Lewistown, Montana. Carl writes to his friends that the thermometer and that has dropped to nineteen degrees below.
Herbert Howland comes from Ludell, a little city of far western Kansas. The fact that it is so far to Ludell, so few rabbits there, and that twenty dollars will go far with a U. U. track student. He went to Lawrence during man stunt training. The staying away from home Christmas day meant more than no big dinner; it is Herbert's birthday day.

ENTER
The students arrived at the prison late in the afternoon and Warden and Mrs. Codding entertained the young women and the chaperners in their home over night, but the children and the probationer—who was fat and ill—their parents were given beds in one of the prison dormitories by trusties. The experience of sleeping in a prison ward behind barricade with and under the same student real criminals, made every student just a nervous as he prepared to retire.
attending the Topper. So the two Washburnites, learning from servants that the K. U. class was at the prison, conceived an idea.
John G. Madden, editor of the Linn County Republic, who in the good old days was editor of the Daily Kansan, still keeps his weather eye on the ups and downs of students on Mount Oread. Last week, taking his Ford in hand, he typed him off a yarn, a thrilling yarn of the days which used to be—and here it is, as Johnni wrote it:
Along in the middle of the night my friend was awakened from his dreams of murders and bank robberies by a slight noise. Trying to shake off the creepy feeling along his neck, he started to over watch when a harsh out of the darkness hissed, "Keep quiet!" He obeyed instructions literally and without argument. As his eyes became accustomed to meager light he began talking in low, but not inadvertible nouns about the chances for escape.
Every term, a K. U. class in sociology visits the state prison to gain some practical knowledge of the problems of such an institution. Several years ago a young man who was one of my best friends made the trip.
According to the story as it leaked out to Lawrence some weeks later, Warden Coddling's son was a student at Washburn College that winter and he and a chum arrived home for a visit this same night. Now Washburn is a very excellent college situated in Topeka, but it doesn't happen to have the large attendance or some of the other advantages enjoyed by the institution at Lawrence. U. students are often accused of reminding their Washburn students of these facts, all which is properly resented by those attending the Topeka school.

THREATS OF DEATH
From their conversation my friend gathered that they were desperate life-terners, who in some way had slipped past the guards, and only needed to file in the windows of that particular bedroom to gain their freedom. While one remained at the window rasping with his file, the other walked from bed to bed brandishing a weapon in hand while he entered threats of death and eternal dammation to anyone who uttered the least cry.
PROFESSOR FOR PEACE AT ANY PRICE The students awoke, one by one, and each was quickly, if not gently,
informed of the situation. Some prayed silently. Others rolled their eyes from side to side looking in vain for an avenue of escape. Thoughts of home, mother and the happy pre-college days occupied the attention of not a few. But the portly professor peacefully snored.
After five or ten minutes this dignitary floored, over, awakened, and raised himself up in bed only to feel his footing and clammy pressing his forehead.
"Wh-What's this?" he stammered. "Dron!" was the terse reply.
The professor dropped. The re sounding thud caused by his weight on the foot is one of the vivid memories of that night to those who were present.
AHA! A CLUE
A laugh, a flood of light as an electric switch was turned, and the vision of two young men in the doorway, one with a small nail file, the other with a nicked safety razor, were the next developments. The two men disappeared immediately, but not every occupant of the room saw that a Washburn sweater. For the indignant instructor and his K. U. students, nothing remained to be done but swear each other to secrecy.
The next morning at breakfast the unsuspecting Warden solemnly introduced two smiling Washburn men to a dozen or more glowering students from Lawrence, and also to a purpureafaced K. U, professor of sociology.
