Kansan Comments Really, Finals Aren't So Difficult If You Begin Review Now. Not Later
That toad that deans and other administrators call the "conscionious student" has been at work re-viewing for finals for a week or more. It's really time for the rest of us to begin. The querulous "Oh, you surely must be mistaken—it's more than a week till finals." is now met by the disconsoling reply that it is no mistake.
To make reviewing really pay, a student should have a definite plan of progress in mind. After allocating the time to prepare the daily lesson, he should earnark the rest of his time to a certain subject each evening, not trying to touch on everything the same night. To get the main points of four or five courses in one night is the problem of only those who wait until the last night.
A good review includes a scanning of textbooks, study of class notes and review of notes on outside reading. If each of these is taken in its turn, done carefully and thoughtfully, and then laid aside, the best benefit of the review is gained. Rereading textbooks not only is not very profitable, it is humanly impossible as a review measure. If the text has not been read at all, an outline of the course is probably available, and helpful.
An hour and a half to two hours of review each night until finals will be for of more value than staying up all night the night before the final, and will insure a pretty fair mastery of the subject matter. A good night's sleep is the student's best bet for a good final.
To a great majority of the present student body, a college education has passed from the realm of the big lark, which includes last-minute cramming, to the idea of a pretty serious business in which a final exam is a clinch to the rest of the work of the course—T. M.

Rock Chalk Talk
By JOAN WOODWARD
Where's the Fire—Is the question innocent bystanders wanted to know after the Gamma Phi's finished serenading the Phi Psi's. It seems that every time the Sigh boys begin their rendition to the Phi's, their song turned into a moan from the nearby underbrush. Could it be work of the underground or merely that of helpful next door neighbors, the Nu Sigs?
Gloom-Mates—In a mock house-cleaning Ann Zimmerman and Mary Snitzler traded drawers secretly. Snitz took Zimm's top drawer and hid it under the bed; Zimm dumped Snitz's in the closet. Next morning at breakfast, Snitz screamed that part of her dresser was missing. Zimmerman, after a cackle: "I guess I beat you to the drawer!"

He said that civilians glowed at the U. S. airmen and from their expressions it was easy to understand how they occasionally lynched a U. S. crew before putting it into the hands of the army.

The following week Lieutenant Maloney was held in solitary confinement at Frankfort for more than a week, while being interrogated by Luftwaffe officers and Gestapo agents. He states that at no time did he receive rough treatment, and only once did an officer use rough language.
We Were Vexed When He Flexed—Dick Hawkinson, Phi Delt and famous Swedish wrestler, flexed his muscles and told Corkie Baker, "You, too, can have a body like this!" He then provided personal aplause by clapping his two knees together; it resulted in a flat fall. New nickname: Tender Tendons Hawkinson!

Ain't It the Berries?—Corbin Hall's annual strawberry festival always provides amusement. At it this week residents heard the senior class prophecy. Other hill students must be content with this excerpt, the only acceptable thing for Rock Chalk readers:
Lt. Fred Humphreys Veteran of 52 Patrols
Lt. (jg) Frederick M. Humphreys, '43, was a crew members aboard a PT-boat which sneaked in close to the Jap-held island of Panay on March 20, and fooled the enemy into thinking another invasion was under way, according to a recent naval release.
Lieutenant Humphreys has taken part in 52 combat patrols during his 12 months in the Pacific.
He entered the Navy in April, 1943, and took midshipman training at Northwestern University before volunteering for PT duty and training at Melville, R. I.
