Backbone for ISA . . .
What becomes of the Independent Students associa
tion is now the responsibility of the Student Council, the
ISA council which will be elected Wednesday and the inde
pendent students themselves.
The Student Council's task is to investigate the new
ISA constitution, drawn up by ISA President Don Flesher
and armroved bv the ISA Council. The new plan aims at
organizing all independents and at instilling new life in the
association. For years the Student Council has been yowl
ing about the lethargy of the independent students in the
field of activities and student government. As one inde
pendent put it, the new plan may not be a "cure-all" for
ISA. But it is a step to a more active and enthusiastic or
ganization. The new ISA experiment may need many re
visions before it accomplishes its purpose, but the overall
plan seems to be a sound, practical blueprint for an ambi
tious, independent group. All indications seem to call for
Student Council approval of the plan.
To the new officers which will be chosen this week
will go the formidable task of putting the plan into opera
SOl'THERN AIRES This quar.et of Negro singers will appear at

Editorial Briefs
The Congress of the United States has every right to
to challenge the acts of the administration and its various
departments. This right to challenge is a part of the bal
ancing of power built, into the constitution for the ex
press purpose of keeping any one departemnt of the gov
ernment from becoming too powerful. However, the man
ner in which the challenges are made can be damaging to
the nation. Take the present attack on Secretary of State
Acheson. There is no question concerning the right of the
Senate to question the secretary's actions and motives,
but the manner in which it is being done is certainly dis
crediting the office in the eyes of those nations which deal
with it. During such critical times as the country now un
dergoes, it is extremely dangerous tc have the chief of
By Kusrene Wohlner.
No one ever asks him for his
: recipes, but he is the only cook
i at the women's dorm who can fix
the automatic potato dicer.
He's Art Epstien, the third
male student ever to be in Insti
tutional Administration 270,
which is actually a course in
conking for large groups. Three
girls and Epstien constitute the
entire enrollment in the class.
During the first part of the
course, Epstien worked at Ag
campus. Students who eat regu
larly at the cafeteria there may
remember the lunches he prepared.
First Cooklnr Class
Hp had never had a regulii
cooking course before. B
through some fast talk with his
advisor and proof of some prac
tical cooking experience, Epstien
gained admittance to the class.
"At first, the thought of being
a raw recruit in the field of
quantity cookery, especially un
der the supervision of an in
structor frightened me," Epstien
commented.
Asked why he is taking a cook
ing course instead of accounting,
economics or some other course
in his major field, business ad
ministration, he replied that
cooking will probably be his lifes
work. Epstien's father is a pro
fessional caterer and - when he
leaves school, Epstien intends to
help his father.

Under the new plan every independent on the campus
will be a member of ISA. Although all independents would
be eligible to participate in any ISA activity under the
broadened membership basis, there would be no compulsion is the efforts of reportcrs whch make a newspaper
to enter into these activities. And it is absurd to expect that'f,, nr ,mcl1.MMf, i ucwoijii

the independent program. The new ISA won't come over
night; it will be a steady growth, depending upon the in-
dustnousness and enthusiasm displayed by the members.
But the independent program is a forward-looking
program, liie new council no longer will represent only a
few unaffiliated students; any group of independents will
be. able to elect a representative to the council.
The new plan also embarks upon an ambitious sports
and social project, a more extensive program than ISA has
ever known. It also, offers the possibility of building up
ISA membership through the incoming freshman body.
ISA can go out after these freshmen students who wish to
remain independent . . . send them advance notice the
summer before they come to the University ... let them
know what ISA has to offer. ISA members might as well
toot their own horn, because no one's going to toot it for
them.
The independent plan provides the framework for an
active University organization. The Student Council can
give the go-ahead signal on the program, but the building
up from this framework is the task of the independent
students themselves. The independent ranks provide more
than sufficient material for developing active leaders and
hard-working followers.
Sleepers of the World, Unite!
Comes now a report from the Hollywood correspon
dent of the UP telling the world at large that men of dis
tinction will be wearing a Paris-inspired and designed
finger-tip length nightgown this summer.
And that isn't alL Last Sunday afternon at a local
movie palace, the fashion editor of the newsreel said (amid
the crunch of Saturday night's popcorn) that slightly
aoove-tne-knee length shorts would be the rave of the re
sorts this summer. Not only that these shorts were to be
worn to all sorts of social activities, including even the
Saturday night Elk's ball.
Are we men to become the pawns of the fashion de
signers who can foist of any "fashion" they see fit (and
we don't use the term loosely) on us? Must we wear shorts
becuse Mrs. So-and-so decided that they look cute on her
hubby and designs shorts for all men? Should we wear
something that looks like an abbreviated Mother Hubard
to sleep in, yet ?
Sleepers of the world, unite! Rise up and revolt against
this movement away from sensible clothing for men. Back
to the be-bop cap and yellow cord pants for men! Leave us
not lose our heads. The Kansas State Collegian.

Worked at Women's Dorm.
After spending three and a half
weeks cooking at the Ag kitchen,
the class room shifted to a new
spot. This time it was at the
women's dorm.
The first thing that any cook
ing chss at the dorm does is take
a tour of the building. This time
it was no-exception.
The instructor, the -three fe
male students and Epstitn started
their tour. This is one of the few
times that yell, "man on firs;" has
ever resounded through the coi -ridors
of the buildings.
First on the tour was Raymond
hall. The students saw a first
floor room. As proof to the
doubting girls, Epstien described
the room as having two beds, in
dividual desks, wash basins, bul
letin boards and an extra arm
chair. "Very neatly kept," he
commented.

Speaking of culture, there are
all sorts of things to engage and

hear them talk. The question to
be debated will be "That this

revival of nationalism in Europe
and Asia."
This is part of the annual In

should be somewhat honored to
have these two scholars from the
University of Glasgow and Edin

Cornhusker to debate with our
two students. This deal is at 7:30

On Thursday, the Brass Choir
unit of the ROTC band will pre
sent a concert in the Union ball
room. This rather impressive
sounding group, which you might
think could be hearrl in Ashland
in a high wind, actually will play
all sorts of music, from a "Fan
fare for Twenty Trumpets" to a
minuet. The Choir should be a
pretty good evening's entertain
ment, for a brass choir is a nice
group, especially if you like brass
choirs.
Friday night we come back -to
good old American culture, of the
barefoot variety. Why shore, it's
a real mouldy old square dance.
Understanding that there's people
that don't like to round dance,
the everlovin' Dance committee
has catered to their tastes, and
presents square dances from time

this is one of the times. Pull out
