Third English Examination Set For Saturday
The third English proficiency examination for this year will be given at 8:30 a.m. Saturday, John B. Virtue, assistant professor of English, announced yesterday.
Juniors and Seniors in the College who have not taken the examination and wish to take it at this time should register in the College office tomorrow, Tuesday, or Wednesday. Rooms to which students are to report to take the examinations will be assigned at that time. No students will be allowed to take the tests without registering.
The examination requires the writing of three short essays on topics from a list containing various subjects. No questions about usage of grammar are asked.
Professor Virtue urged that students who have not taken the examinations do so at this time so as to avoid complications in hours and schedules later. A student must take 24 hour requirement. Another propassed the examination. The hours the student is carrying in the present semester counts as part of this 24 hour requirement. Another proficiency examination will be given sometime in April.
The examination papers are read by a faculty committee of five members. Papers are judged on structure, intelligence with which the papers are organized, separation of paragraphs, development of the idea presented, sentence structure, and practical mastery of the principle of composition. A paper is failed in the examination only when at least three members of the committee vote against passing it.

Footlight Serenade At Varsity Today
Commissioned by 20th Century Fox to execute paintings of shapely Betty Grable, five of America's greatest glorifiers of glamorous girls have executed their individual interpretations of the charming star. Besides shedding new light on the Grable allure it epitomizes the beauty Betty lends to FOOTLIGHT SERENADE, the sparkling musical, opening at the Varsity Theatre, for four days. In the picture Betty is starred with John Payne and Victor Mature in 'a story that is set on Broadway. Betty has ample opportunity to display her many varied talents as she sings, dances and romances.
Second feature on this extra special double bill features Warren William as the Lone Wolf in ONE DANGEROUS NIGHT. You'll regret it if you miss it. So don't fail to see this big double show starting today at the Varsity.-Adv.
Letters to the Editor
EDITOR:
A subject of great importance to each of us was discussed at a joint meeting of the Pan-American League and the International Relations Club Thursday evening. The subject was a plan for the post-war world.
Prof. W. E. Sandelius presented for discussion the Ely Culbertson Plan for the abolition of war. Yes, it's a problem which has beaten every attempt to stop it, and now Ely Culbertson, the bridge player, thinks that he has a plan! But he is also a social psychologist of repute. Critics, the country over, are enthusiastic in praise of his well constructed plan. It may well be the basis for a working model.
It is a trite saying that the students of today are the leaders of tomorrow. Every thinking citizen should read the condensation of the Culbertson Plan appearing in the February Reader's Digest. It justifies the attention and serious consideration of every student who has an interest in the world of tomorrow.
RICHARD N. TODD
Editor's Note: The Culbertson plan is based on the theory that a world police force, controlled by the United Nations, could prevent any other nation from becoming an aggressor.
Culbertson would establish a world federation to be composed of eleven regional federations—each one an economic unit in itself. There would be a federation constitution which would provide for a world president selected in turn by each of the eleven federations; a board of world trustees, one from each of the regional federations; a world supreme court, to interpret the constitution; and a world court of equity to settle economic and territorial disputes.
The world police force, established on a quota basis, would have exclusive monopoly of the means of making the heavy weapons of war, and would act in authority against any nation or nations which evidenced aggressive tendencies.
"University Goes To War"
Film On Campus Activity
The moving picture, "Your University Goes to War," showing various phases of the war effort at the University, has been completed, according to Prof. Allen Crafton, head of the department of speech and drama. Professor Crafton edited the last section of film yesterday.
"We plan to have this movie shown throughout the state, to show the people of the state" ___
"We plan to have this movie show the people of the state just what their University is doing to further the war effort," Professor Crafton stated yesterday.
A free showing of the film for University students will probably be given some time next week in Fraser theater.
The movie, which lasts about 30 minutes, contains shots of both men's and women's physical conditioning classes, camouflage classes, war information library, foreign language classes, signal corps training, naval training, the ROTC, the CVC, Civilian Pilots training, radio station KFKU, and Watkins hospital.
The Bureau of Visual Instruction furnished the film for the picture, Professor Crafton supervised the filming, and Al Bernard did the photographing.
Valentine Day is February 14th
The defense rested its case in the trial of Errol Flynn at Los Angeles yesterday. Flynn worried more over the loss of his dog than the outcome of the trial.

Three Students Write ADVICE TO----
To Professor Hibbard (continues)
Prof. Claude Hibbard, department of Zoology, received letters last week from three former University students and assistants in the department of modern vertebrates in Dyche museum. Pvt. Frank Estrada, former student in '42, is with the Quartermasters Corps, Camp Cooke, Calif, The destination of Vernon Mahon, former student in '42, boatswain first class, is unknown. Lt. Ralph Taylor, former student in '41, is reported to be in Australia or the vicinity of Australia.
THEY FIGHT ON! Wounded and battered, the Navy gun-crew aboard the American merchantman continue its battle with the German submarine, in "The Navy Comes Through." In the foreground, on deck, are Carl Esmond and Joey Ray; standing are Jackie Cooper and Frank Jenks, George Murphy and Pat O'Brien are co-featured in the story, which has Jane Wyatt in its only feminine role. "The Navy Comes Through" opens a limited engagement today for 4 days only. You are urged to attend the 1 p.m. Sunday matinee for choice seats.
(continued from page three)
"The Forest Rangers," Paramount's thrilling adventure romance in Technicolor that starts today at the Granada Theatre, boasts a three-star cost. Here they are: Paulette Goddard, Fred MacMurray and Susan Hayward. Filmed in the high timberlands of the Pacific Slope, the film deals with the lives and loves of the men who battle America's forest fires.
Slenderness seems to be another essential quality. Counting calories really isn't so hard once you get the hang of it. And besides, it helps your mathematical mind. (A little rationalizing doesn't hurt anyone once in awhile.)
Save on Lipstick; Be Sweet
But It Doesn't Always Work
Too much make-up was voted thumbs down and snobbishness was condemned. Then go easy on that lipstick, it comes off easy anyway, and practice a sweet smile and cheery hello to the girl who swiped your last boy friend. If you can smile at her you can smile at anybody.
Don't take the results of this poll too seriously. Your own man's likes and dislikes will probably be more representative where your individual interests are concerned. Besides, I've tried everything; and here I am, alone, on Sunday too.
