NOVEMBER 1938 13 Father Time Relates the Sept. 10 Rush week begins. Be- ware of Greeks who come bearing gifts! All knowledge is not from books, proclaims a writer in the pre- registration Kansan. Somebody must have been to college before. Sept. 17 Dale Brody Shroff, Master of Trumpetorial Hot Licks, is reported to have gone East to study for the priesthood. To understudy Gabriel perhaps? Sept. 19 Fraternities on the Hill report 328 converts to the Greek cause. Sorority pledges are already old hands. One with an arrow on said that she had been rushed by three sororities, Kappa, Theta, and the one she pledged, Pi Foo. Sept. 20 The Hill sleeps late after a cool evening of rolling, rollicking ryhthm at the opening varsity. First meeting of the Men ' s Student Council is indeed propitious practically knockdown and drag-out. Sept. 2 1 F our thousand one hundred forty-one of the total unofficial enrollment of 4142 are at the Union Building open house and free mixer. Rumors that someone found room to dance are unconfirmed. Sept. 22 Classwork in all depart- ments officially begins today. That ' s the trouble. When you start having a good time, they start some unneces- sary complication to take the fun out of life. At the freshman capping, the line was longer than the fee line, but twice as pleasant. Sept. 23 The opening convocation and the first rally of the year today. This evening, the traditional church receptions. Heard in center Strong Hall, Sure I ' m a Baptist, but the Con- gregationalists dance at their ' s ... Sept. 24 Fans ' tonsils took a terrific beating in the Kansas-Texas win when Miller intercepted a Longhorn pass and sprinted 95 yards to a touchdown. The final score was 19-18. Sept. 27 Students ' mugs are being released on activity books. Appropri- ate caption for some might read SEX FIEND SLAYS SIX. Glee club hopefuls give out in hope. Sept. 28 Independent leaders an- nounce plans for a newsreel, a fashion show, and a free hour dance for Friday night next. It is reported that many Greeks consider deserting to the barbs for the evening. Sept. 29 Hearings on Campus par k- ing permits reveal so many cases of flat feet that Amalgamated Arch Supports jumped eight points when the news reached Wall Street. The Engineers dissipate with cider and doughnuts at their annual mixer. Sept. 30 The Sour Owl, a purpor- ted humor publication, appeared for the first time this year on the campus today. It ' s not funny, it ' s clean! (???) Kansas Jayhawkers leave for South Bend with the best intentions in the world. Sept. 31 Although the Jayhawkers intentions were good, they could have used army tanks to greater advantage. The Fighting Bohunks of Notre Dame had to use 81 men to eke out their 52-0 win over the home boys. Oct. 1. This is the twelfth day of autumn, but the weather man doesn ' t know it. He ' s slower to catch on than a Chi Omega pledge. Ninety-degree weather, white shoes, and shirtsleeves seem to be the order of the day. Oct. 2 Chancellor Lindley has passed his sixty-ninth milestone in the remarkable time of sixty-nine years flat. Still vigorous in mind and body, he is no older than his youngest student. Oct. 4 The M.S.C. plans to study- dormitories. Don ' t they know by now that the only place students sleep is in their classes. Oct. 6 Ku Ku pledges get it in the (censored). Anyone who would take the beating they get must be a bit daft. The rumor is here confirmed that a girl did receive the key to the stadium in a speech class. (Name and address furnished upon receipt of one dollar to cover cost of packing and mailing. ) Oct. 7 The medical school election features railroading of a rare quality. Even Big Tom Pendergast might get a few pointers from the Phi Chi-Phi Beta Pi combine. Open houses are on. More fun! Oct. 8 The Kansas Jayhawks ex- acted a 58-14 tribute from the Wash- ubrn Ichabods in a game which was not marred by sportsmanlike conduct. That was all that kept it from being a bore.

NOVEMBER 1938 15 VOLUME FIFTY PUBLISHED FIVE TIMES YEARLY BY THE STUDENT BODY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS A RECORD OF EVENTS AND PERSONALITIES AND A REVIEW OF TRENDS AND OPINIONS TOM Y O E t: I I I O it IN CHIEF lit I II 1,1 I TOO V BUSINESS . l. XA(.i;H Monday morning quarterbacking to those who are so Eminently Qualified. So we judge they are by the authoritative tone with which they rave far into the night in bull sessions. So with football as with tea dancing we ' ll leave the crusade to the Kansan. Then we might wax sentimental over the ad- vantages that we as college students have, the re- sponsibility that we have of justifying the faith in us placed by Those Who Foot the Bills. Again, we might deplore the facts that will next spring toss hundreds of us out upon the hardly tender mercies of a Cold World one that is mighty cold right now. But when at long last we come to things that are provocative of comment, we should like to see: ( 1 ) Changes made in the rushing systems. Their faults are discussed elsewhere in this issue. The need of some change no one can deny. Yet last August no less than One Who Had the Power to Act announced changes would be made to remedy serious defects ( Continued on page 80 ) NEXT ISSUE Girls and more girls will feature the Christmas issue of the Jayhawker. Backbone of the magazine will be the social sororities and the various girls ' organizations. In the supporting cast will be foot- ball and its lettermen, more names, personalities, and photographic featrues. Watch for your name or picture. It will be out shortly before Christmas vacation. WHEN THE TIME for the absolute deadline is past, there always remains one vacant page the editorial page. For some reason or other we are always hard put to find some subject into which we can throw ourselves with abandon. There are lots of things about which we could rant to high heaven. For instance, we might take up the cudgel for tea dancing as did our predecessor of two years since. But he accomplished exactly nothing, and the chances are that we should accomplish more of the same. Already this fall one attempt has been made to start such an institution, and already it has been summarily squelched by Qualified Authority. Or we might work ourselves into a stew of righteous indignation over the perennial K.U. foot- ball dilemma. But down in our heart we feel the knocking should be left until after the season ' s close. Now it can only demoralize team, coach, and school spirit. Further, we have no desire, being too much a jelly, to be a real quarterback and also shall leave the THE COVER To Bert Brandt must go the credit for the most punch any Jayhawker cover has ever carried. It was Bert ' s idea from start to finish. Taken from a second story window in Green Hall, the picture catches even chipped spots at the feet of the pillars. This has umph in a big way. We wager it ' ll make you look twice, too.
