For This Issue: , Ntws: CHARLES BARRETT ' Sports: RUSH HAMRICK CLARIFICATIONS On Fight Between Haves, Ha ve-Nots A few clarifications came out yesterday regarding the present fight for prestige in the manage ment of the German club. 1) The whole "situation" is merely a fight between the haves and have-nots for offices for prestige. 2) Bob Magill, director of Gra ham Memorial, is not responsible for the loan to the German club. The Graham Memorial board of directors advanced the money to solve the club's "pressing finan- . clal difficulties." 3) Ma gill's veto power, col lateral for the loan, is to correct any financial policy which might endanger the loan, the veto not to be used as a stick for govern ing the social and political poli cies of the club. 4) The four fraternities who have been in the ice-box will be satisfied with nothing less than a guarantee of rotation of offices to all members (11), rather than to the majority frame-up. It's all a silly mess, on the word of a number of individuals in volved. Just fraternities arguing over titles. The four . fraternities are snapping up an opportunity to get into the gravy, which they feel their monetary contribution warrants them. . Considering the $900-debt, and again, in spite of denials, that the German club needs the $4, 000 (approximate) contribution pf the, four fraternities, we still favor the position of ATO, KA, Phi Gamma Delta and Phi Delta Theta. "What I hate about all this," one fraternity member (a have) remarked, "is the bad feeling this creates between fraternity and non-raternity men." Well, lad, we agree, but why cause this trouble? It can be solved easily. After all, the prime considera tion of the club is to provide dancing for the campus, since the German club, in name at least, is to serve the campus. In fighting over the offices the prestige you have over looked the. real purpose. But to the have-nots, you can't be blamed much for demanding more than you've been getting. We hope some compromise is ef fected. . 1 i Pictured . explorer, Lincoln 9 He explores regions. 12 Coiipled. 3 Venerable. 5 Bene. 16 Belonging to the arum family. 17 Robin. 18 To crush. 20 Encountered. 21 Climbing plant. 23 Eccentric wheel. 24 You and me. . 25 Blockhead. 20 Burden. 27 Railroad. 28 Throat. 30EvO. 31 A beverage. 33 Upon. 34 Being. ?5 Seasoning. . o BlacKSTrd. 3?

' On Other Campuses From oast To C By BEN ROEBUCK c oas WORKABILITY Of Dorm Council Still Undecided. THe Interdormitory council, as was expected, did not vote to decrease its size. ' Despite the evidence, as shown in past years, that a council the size of the present one does not operate ef ficiently, the members of the council decided, by the decisive margin of 43-14, that they would retain the status quo. If th large vote, a total of 57, were' indicative that there is a renewed interest in the council this year, and that a similar large attendance will be on hand at future meetings, then there would be little question that the present setup is desirable. . But Tuesday night's attend ance cannot be accepted as a criterion. The newly-elected floor councillors and athletic mana gers, whom the revision would have eliminated 'from attending meetings, , turned out in full strength to protect their seats on the council." lf they .continue throughout the year to show this interest, the Interdormitory council will go a long way to im prove its importance as a student governing unit. We are inclined to think, how ever, that the situation in the fu ture will continue to remain the same. 'Holding to our . original stand that a reduction in size would result in an. improved council, we suggest that the present council wait until next spring, when it will not be voting itself but of office, and at that.

Not long ago, each year the (Kan sas) campus budded out with hundreds of simple-looking young men gadding aimlessly about with blue and crimson caps perched rakishly upon their heads.

'ensor By DON BISHOP Genius is a quality that frequently cannot, find the necessary public ac quiescence to raise it to its deserved position. But, if genius is present, eveji though the public acknowledgement be lacking, it will rise to the surface sooner or later; and the exscoffers will finally confess that they were wrong. This is the situation, it seems, with the problem of raising funds to secure the manuscripts of Thomas Wolfe for the University library. Around . the time of the publishing, posthumously, of the next-to-last of his novels, "The Web and the Rock," a local committee last summer launched a drive to obtain $5,000 to purchase a col lection of practi cally all the works of Wolfe, in his own handwriting, to be permanently placed in the li brary. Playwright Paul Green was named chairman of the committee, Miss Mary Thornton of the library was made secretary-treasurer, and the Alumni association joined in the movement. Authors Jonathan Daniels, James Boyd and Struthers Burt, and Dean House, Prof. Koch and Professor Bill Olsen of the University added signifi cance to the effort by being among the first contributors. But now, the ambitious attempt languishes. Many contributions have j been made, from Wolfe's classmates of the Class of 1920 and from others in terested in the plan. But the goal is still far away. ' Perhaps Thomas Wolfe's genius hasn't reached its zenith yet. There are many reasons to believe that his name will go down in literary history as a significant one in this particular era of literature. Certainly even to day he is recognized as one of the best of modern writers. Thomas Wolfe's genius can be rec ognized now comparatively cheaply. No gfeaterprecognition could be given it by this University than to be able to say thait possessed the greater part of hiil works.

Graduate Convocation Scheduled Tomorrow The annual convocation of graduate students will take place tomorrow night at 8 o'clock in Hill Music hall with short informal talks by Dr. Carl White, University librarian, Dean W. W. Pierson of the graduate school and Dr. George Coff man of the English department. Following the convocation the graduates will assemble in Smith building for the social hour. Trez P. Yeatman, graduate students' presi dent, said that graduate faculty mem bers are welcome to attend the night's activities along with the graduates. Big Red Ruffing is for the second straight year the . American league's best pitcher, having won 21 games and lost only 7 for the Yankees. Maxwell Perkins, literary executor of Wolfe's estate and friend of the famed author. We who are closest to the scenes which inspired much of his brilliant writing should best be able to discern his genius. If the students through some campus body would make an ef fort . to revive the project to bring home to the University its -rightful heritage, we might be able to save ourselves the future embarrassment of confessing, -when it is really too late, that genius was once in our midst and easily securable, too.
