A GAME OF PEPPER . . . on the extensive Law School campus. CLARION TIME AT COMMERCE not spend all of their time in court or do they continually pore over case books. They are justly famous for their ball games held during the open periods between classes. As one oi the lawyers puts it, We find that it is most im- perative to develop a sound body as well as a brilliant legal mind. O The School of Commerce owes its fame to the Alpha Kappa Psi fraternity's political ma- chine which has succeeded during the past four years in controlling all elections. Little but vague rumor is heard during most of the college year: however, when elections are in progress and when the politicians begin their work, much is heard and said concerning Commerce politics. Commerce Comments, carrying the pen name of Larry Roberts, aroused much vituperation from Dean Bell, in her Campus office, to Delta Sigma Pi, in their Lighthouse. l-lud Henderson smoothly kept his identity concealed while Commerce students flinched under his biting sarcasm. Red Gray assumed Larry's responsibilities when Henderson was asked to become head of the Placement Bureau of the University. O Thus through the use of provocative print and picture we have presented campus life in its entirety. Dialogue has been used to create the thread of activity to be found binding this and other sections of the Kynewisbok to- gether. And those who review Its Campus several years hence will be better able to re- call the events composing the campusology of their college life. POST MORTEM AT LAW SCHOOL . . . between classes. 0230

committee of four to look into the matter, if only for the best interests of our university. Thus in a short time are the seeds of mal- content sown which become a flourishing bay tree shading the entire coaching staff. Produc- ers oi winning teams thrive in the tree's shade, but those who lose are hung from its highest branch by a stout alumni rope woven of con- solidated opinion. Mixing in society with alumni from other schools, these identical gentlemen, wheniques- tioned concerning their team, glibly reply: Well, we've had a tough break this year, just a tough break. ,But wait until next season rolls around: that team of ours is going to run up a mighty big score on your over-rated boys. Yes, that's the way things go, you can't expect a coach to produce a winner every year. At Homecomings these occasional alumni are hail fellows well met. Their jocular humor at the bonfire rallies, their air of knowing on the eve of a crucial game, and their boisterous hi- larity at pep rallies are quite akin to the pre- iling undergraduate enthusiasm. e occasional alumnae cluster in the soror houses and, after a close inspection, procee , ver a hand of bridge, to: My, this house is a ' ht, declares the dealer. I don't k what these girls do with their time: gadding out, l suppose, asserts her partner. l had t ust off this table, it was positively filthy. THE PUBLISHER . . . of The Pioneer and the Secretary of the Alumni Association, are the prin- cipal duties oi Randolph P. McDonough. Two no-trump, says a third. l think this place needs some new drapes. Don't you? Yes, it does, replies the fourth, but do you suppose the girls would take care of them? Now, now, let's not be too severe, soothes the original bidder, after all, we were coeds once. Let's discuss the matter further at our next meeting. But behind this scene of pragmatic alumni personnel, those truly interested in the better- ment of the University move and have their being. They are those who deftly attack the problem of aiding students and of projecting institutional plans. The alumni magazine, The Pioneer, edited by Secretary Randolph McDonough, is an ex- ample of this serious intent. Published monthly, under the auspices of the alumni, The Pioneer contains personal events interesting to the alumni world,- coupled with pithy articles on current affairs written by University professors and association members. Under the compe- tent guidance of Secretary McDonough, the so- cial, the business, and the financial meetings are co-ordinated. An integral division of the Alumni Associa- tion is its governing body, composed of an executive committee presided over by Dayton Denious, class of '27, The simplicity of this administrative setup assures the speedy dis- 0250
