taken the other side, having given its
approval for increased appropriations
for the standing army, the daily ra-
tion allowance, establishments of the
national guard and the officers re-
serve, army transportation, and build-
ings at West Point.
1 It is quite clear that these additions
do not display a militaristic spirit,
but merely provide for the efficient
maintenance of existing forces. With
the appropriations committee behind
the increases, it is quite probable that
they will be accepted by the House.

Next to the Balkans, Nicaragua,
China, and Chicago, Fiume has been
the hottest bed of revolution and dis-
turbance in the world for the last
eight years. Left dangling without
a place to go by the intelligent Ver-
sailles treaty, it was left for the first
nation that came along to grab, and
who would grab anything more quick-
ly than Mussolini?
Now it seems that there may be a
ray of hope arising out of the storm
center of the Adriatic. Jugoslavia
has secured a port at Saloniki and
apparently cares little or nothing
about Fiume. Italy and Hungary may.
come to an agreement by peaceful
methods, something unprecedented in
the Balkans, and the whole thing will
be solved. In fact negotiations have
recently been started with this end
in view.
All of which goes to prove merely
that the best deliberate efforts of the
world's statesmen assembled in a
marble hall can accomplish little to-
wards solving the real problems of
the world, and that progress, lastingI
progress, comes only after years of
effort and sometimes suffering, as in
the case of the solution of Fiume.

One thing about it, that snow storm
sure hid the benches in the stadium.
We can be thankful for that.
DEAR SNOWPLOW: Please make
paths on the campus. And include
ALL the campus walks.
Lots of people rave about the beau-I
tiful snow, but they are the same ones
who cuss when it gets down into their
shoes. Or when they have to shovelI
off the walks.
The latter doesn't apply to the B.
and G. boys, of course. They only
use shovels to dig up the good campus
grass.
No, They Made The; Snow White To
Match The Stadium
Dear Timothy-We solved the mys-
tery of the color of the new Will
Rogers-Hobbs-Doc Lovell-Little--
Romeo stadium. They made it that
way to match the snow.

In 1903 the Iroquois theater in Chi-
cago burned and a hundred persons
were killed by the stampede and panic
that took place. Far away in Mon-
treal people read of the disaster and
sympathized-and forgot. Five days
ago in Montreal a theater burned, and
nearly a hundred children were killed
in the stampede and panic that took
place. People all over the Unitgd
States are reading and sympathizing
-but there is a very good reason for
not forgetting.

Well, if that is their alibi for the'
white paint, what are they going, to do
when Spring breaks forth in all her
glory-praise be -the day!-use green
paint?
* * *
By rights they ought to have made
it some shade of opaque, to match
the ice that usually covers the im-
mediate landscape there.
* * *
Anyway, they can, change colors
easily enough. That white won't stay
white long, and then instead of put-
ting on the same thing, they can
switch to something else.
Sometimes we think they painted
it white to correspond to the black-
boards in most of the classrooms. I
Some of them never were a real
clean black-if you can say that.

OFFERS TO, AID FUND
"Special Co-Ed" wrote us a nice
letter thanking us for taking over the
league fund. She says "It certainly
is generous of you to help us out with
our league building. By all means
apply the 'Stadium bond' fund to it.
What shall I do?"
s s
If you will simply carry out the
suggestions we made in yesterday's
ROLLS in regard raising money, we
are sure that it will be a great aid.
* * *
Let us again urge the co-eds to re-
fiue date- with fellows who have not
subscribed to the League Fund, and
can show a receipt. And if you will
also refuse to eat while on a date,
having the money sent in to the Fund,
it will bring in a large sui.
* * *
KERNEL, WHERE ARE YOU?
DEAR KERNEL-You and Oscar
promised to send in some money to
the League Fund. Are you snowed
in?
(Signed) The Director.

SOME MORE NAMES
Although a few suggestions came in,
it rather looks as if the campus were
studying for finals, because everyone
should be interested in naming that
stadium. It's a long time to the finals,
and in the meantime everyone ought
to do his duty to the University, and
the B. and G. boys.

HERE'S THE LIST SO FAR
"Useless Stadium" .... Ababa Rococo
"The White Elephant" ......... Hay
"Pedestrian Shelf" .......... Aristide

F RITZ KIVEISLERi4
Besides the appearance of Mar on
Talley who will sing in Hill audht)-
rium on Monday night, the lately pro-
digal Mr. Sink is also presetinig
another high salaried artist luring
the month of January. F'ri.tz Kreisler
will. present a program as the fifth
number of the Choral Union series on
Monday night, January 31, il Hill
auditorium.
The first time that I ever heard
Kreisler, he made a profound and last-
ing impression, one created, not alone
through a dazzling technique charac-
teristic of Fieifitz, but one created be-
cause Kreisler combined all the sig-
nificant elements of violin playing,.
technique, tone and interpretation.
In spite of Kreisler's dictumn that
Pablo Casals was the "best man of
all who played on strings," one recog-
nizes in him the artist who has wt-
tained a perfection ,of maturity and
still has not lost his spirit of youth,
even though he is just beyond the age
of fifty. An audience listening to
Kreisler is put into sensitive communi-
cation with him and his music. This
ideal achievement is mainly wrought
because of two things, a powerful yet
plastic tone and a sympathetic inter-
pretation of his selections. Un-
doubtedly if it were not for the former
Kreisler would not be distinguished
as the maestro of his instrument,
superseding even Elnan. Kreisler
seems to sense the spirit and mood
that the composer desires to produce,
rendering his numbers with just the {
right amount of emotional feeling.j
This fineness he in turn radiates
through his violin to his audience.
Since Kreisler has branched into ar-
rangement and composition a new
phase of his ability is manifest. One
that can create artistic things as well I
as play them is sure of an enduring
name.
