OCTOBER 1941 We are seeking to stimulate the poets on Mt. Oread to submit their offerings. Our University is made up of men and women seeking an education, and we deem it worthwhile to show the student body the accomplishments in the field of literature of which K.U. students are capable. Perhaps it may be labeled a shift from the worldly to the ethereal, but it seems to be more in sympathy with a college pub- lication. The purpose of this 54th volume of the Iaylmwker is to give you an analytical view into the life of stu- dents on the campus of the University of Kansas. We want to entertain you, to interest you, and if possible to stimulate you. If you don't want to be stimulated, you should not be here. Aside from its present value, the ftzylmwker aims at giving you a permanent record of what you are doing and thinking while in college. We hope that twenty years from now, a glance through the Jay- lmwker will refresh your memory of the attitudes which you and your colleagues took on issues which we hope by then will be history. Rather than giving you a kaleidoscopic news reel of the University of Kansas, we are attempting to put it under the micro- scope and see what makes it tick. Many old features such as the gossip column, the social wheel, and the fashion notes are gone. Per- haps they are not gone for good, but they are gone for this issue. We recommend highly the reading in this first issue: Bill StaFford's poem, From the Sound of Peace is a thrilling piece from the pen of last year's Carruth contest winner. Clarence Peter- son has reached up into the professional realm with his Tale of the Green Beaver. Stan Kreider in his Story of a Building paints a beautiful word picture of a historic K.U. landmark. Smile at John Conard's expose on Who Blows the Whistle? and swell up with pride at our guest conductor, Bob Maplesden, who gives this magazine and you, its readers, a pat on the back. john Waggoner's One Night of Love may not be what the title implies . . . some will find it in- teresting others-amusing. The jfzyhmuleer souds oPf against skirts for the women cheerleaders in Char- lene Johnsons story on Educated Enthusiasm. And Jill Peck gives us a lovely look at the Latins in her excellent, Oooo Those Latin's.

Also contained, is a detailed description by Fred Eberhardt of the administration which makes this machine go. The Whitney vs. Price editorial debate makes excellent reading for the thinking student, and donlt miss Spencer Burtis's ditty on the Fighting jay- hawkersf' They have done a good job . . . these so-called contributors. They are the most important part of this magazine and they have come through with flying colors.
