Dandelions Vs. Greeks, B-G Crew
University Daily Kansan
The dandelions out-waited the Greeks and are over-growing Buildings and Grounds.
The Taraxacum ossiciniles, as Dr. Robert Beer, professor of entomology, calls the KU type of dandelion, sprouts every spring with a sea of white stems and usually disappears after three weeks.
KU Greeks had planned to dig up dandelions during Greek Week in a contest for the heaviest collection of dandelions.
The campaign had been decided upon as aid for ridding the campus of the unsightly rash of dandelions this spring, but the cold weather postponed the March arrival of the dandelions, Jim Johnston, Independence. Mo., junior and president of the IFC, said.
The dandelions will disappear by the middle of May, just about the time KU students will begin studying for finals.
THE MAIN THING that B&G is doing is to cut the dandelions, although the dandelions make a comeback every 36 hours.
the weeds are eventually choked out by the grasses, but as sure as spring occurs each year, the dandelions will return a year from now.
