St. Since the first issue of the JAY- HAWKER always must be pre- pared in a few short weeks, many who wish to try out for either the editorial or business side of the staff have not yet had the oppor- tunity of doing so. It has been a busy few weeks both for them and for us. Hence, we now take this opportunity of inviting anyone in- terested in writing, editorial work, office work, or in the busines end of publication work to apply at the Jayhawker office, third floor of the Union Building, within the next two weeks. Our special needs are many. We ' re looking for a columnist with a subtle, clever way of look- ing at things. We liave in mind the type of thing that appears in The Talk of The Town in the New Yorker, or the Don Herold type of thing in Scribner ' s- If you can qualify, you ' re hired. Anybody who can write satire has a market in the Jayhawker. If you have ever drawn any cartoons on campus sub- jects, submit them to us. And we ' re trying to discover a clever, lightly satirical, campus poet of the Ogden Nash or Norman Levy type, someone who won ' t try to be Socially Significant, or Vital. And we ' re still publishing the work of any and all good candid camera- ologists. We ' ll look for you in the office between 1:30 and 5:00. Let ' s All go to Billy Hutson ' s Eldridge and get a good cup of nickel coffee . . . then we ' ll i plan our next party with him.
