ROWDYISM
"Giving 'em the fireworks" is the latest indoor
sport of some youthful aspirants to gang fame
in Kentucky. If college students continue to be
so childishly susceptible to the influence of the
current scandal sheets, motion pictures and radio announcements concerning the daring of
the Chicago gangsters we wish that they would
go to Chicago and stay there. In their language, "scram," in case they no longer understand conventional English.
Several theories have been volunteered as to
the cause of this fiery epoch in the social life
of the university. One of them is that one of
those eternally sleepy students had just come
to and thought that fourth of July celebrations
were In order, in other words, he mistook the
first basketball game for the annual country
fair gathering.
At the Pan Hellenic dance it
was rumored that some child, hoping to discover if there was a Santa Claus, outraged the
dignity of everyone there and disgraced himself Just to see if Santa would put ashes and
switches in his stockings. However, theories
cannot justify such outrages as have been committed during the past few social events. Only
a collegiate theory could attempt to justify a
collegiate act and these are not collegiate acts,
they are for too childish.

In the future if this lamentable stnt of affairs continues It will be necessary for every
collegian to carry his "32" to all 'social functions
in order to protect himself. Pistols have been

curring is that which the effervescing
carrying on, guns arc not necessary, fire crackers can shed no light on It, noise cannot frighten It away. However, if people persist In carrying fire arms to basketball games there should
be a legislation to the cflcct that they should
be allowed to fire these only out In the wide
open spaces. Several fraternity houses arc
known to have the courtesy to restrain their
gang Instincts until the people across the street
are Indoors and then to fire a friendly volley of

shots. If fraternities can be
thoughtful In small matters like shooting up
the neighborhood, why can't others be so?
Sport is the greatest of college diversions,
people who enjoy It should be allowed to do so.
Kentucky cannot have a good basketball team
when rooters do their best to destroy the unity
which is the strength of a team. It Is their duty
to their alma mater cither to stay home or
come and boost the team. Furthermore it Is
the duty of every university student to see that
these thoughtless persons either stay out of the
gymnasium or arc put out, that if these children of both college and grammar school who
