Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
Printed on orange paper, with the insert page a gaudy yellow, the annual 49ers edition of the New Mexico School of Mines Gold Pan was devoted almost entirely to the celebration.
The Red Eye Saloon was the name given the gym and it lived up to its name. According to the Gold Pan, the walls of this abode of sin looked like a part of the United States Arsenal. Games of chance were everywhere. Those who didn't care to gamble danced to the strains of music, clinking bottles and rustling cards.
Colorado Aggies Go Harvestin$^{i}$
Colorado State College students were dismissed from class Oct. 20, to 27 to assist in the state-wide harvest of emergency crops. Under the direction of the CSC military department the 700 men enrolled in basic or advanced military training courses were organized for the emergency harvest call. Other men students are responsible to the deans of their respective divisions.
Minnesota Band Stays Home
According to President Green, it is perfectly acceptable for physically fit and able Aggie coeds to respond to harvest call.
The University of Minnesota band will march only on the Minnesota field this year. Traditionally, the band has made one trip with the football team each year. The band feels that in keeping with war-time curtailments of activities and transportation restrictions they should cancel their scheduled trip to Wisconsin.
Other curtailments of marching band activities are being made so that students will be able to devote more of their time to the speeded-up academic work.

The total cost of the building is estimated at $5,000. The date of the dedication of the new building has not been set as yet.
A Packard for the Jape
In less than four hours Saturday afternoon more than 800 Purdue University men collected well over 80,000 pounds of scrap to be turned over to Uncle Sam's war industries.
Slightly more than half of the 40 tons were obtained from University buildings, the rest being gathered through a house-to-house canvass of every dwelling place in West Lafayette.
The climax was the scrap parade, when the Lambda Chi's put one last shot of gass in their ancient Packard convertible and sent it, with two pancake-flat tires, and over fifteen students piled on, lurching and backfiring down the street to the junk pile.

The attire of the chorus for the first part of the program consisted of black trousers with wide, red stripes down each leg, black boots, bright blue shirts, and white caps. The songs sung in the first part of the program were religious or operatic in nature.
The crowd became more enthusiastic as the program moved into the second part with more vivacious songs, such as, "The White Whirlwind," a Russian folk-song, "Song of the Flea," "Sileny," "The Snow Has Blown Over Russia," "Lezginka" and "In 1893," a Cossack war song. The was song contained some unusual whistling by a member of the chorus,

and was repeated at the insistence of the crowd.
Paul B. Lawson, Dean of the college, also spoke at the meeting, forecasting the probability of departmental changes because of revisions in curricula to meet wartime education. Dean Lawson told the College faculty to avoid worry over their employment prospects but to be ready and willing to accept any changes in their teaching that might be required to assist in the prosecution of the war.
NO CHANGES MADE--task is to keep the University alive,' he advised.
After completing the regularly scheduled program with an encore of the "Kozatchok" dance, the chorus closed the program by singing the "Star Spangled Banner," the only song sung in English during the evening.
