Adolescent Or Adult?
Under consideration by a committee of the Men's Student Council is a recommendation for a sum of money from a reserve fund of the Central Activities Commission with which to purchase additional intramural equipment for independent men. Since the proposal involves the use of student funds, it merits public consideration.
Both student governing bodies have funds to allot. These funds are derived on a percentage basis from sale of activity books to students. Occasionally in the allowing of these funds, the question of group or political pressure is raised. Actually the practical result of the allotment system is that all funds appropriated for various purposes could be subjected to that charge.
The student councils as the elected representatives of the student body support with appropriations of money such a wide range of student activities as the Y.M.C.A., International Relations Club, the Housing Bureaus, the Engineering Exposition, Peace Convocation, Student Forums Board, University band, and other activities as occasion warrants. Not all students are benefited by every activity to which these student funds apply.
Group or political pressure should not guide the Men's Student Council in its decision on this particular question or similar ones. The Independent Student Association should and doubtless is willing to face the tests of other allotments. The criteria for any appropriation of student funds should include a survey of the number to be benefited by the money, benefit to the school as a whole, the reasonable good of the cause and the interest displayed by the students in the activity.
As a struggling and worthwhile organization, the Independent Student Association has received some financial benefits for two years from student funds. These, however, represent a subsidy for what has been regarded as a worthy attempt to provide a more complete school life for the independent student, and were for only this purpose, not for establishing a precedent or an annuity.
]
Past action of the Council could be reasonably followed if it decides that the independent organization is yet in the stage in which a subsidy is necessary for its perpetuation. Admittedly, sooner or later, the I.S.A. must pay its own way. If that time has come, the Council must reply negatively to the request.
--crushing air attack that is expected to bring victory to Germany, or he may have adopted a policy of watchful waiting.
Ouiet
War
No news is good news! If there was ever a time when this phrase applied it is now. The duller the headlines, the lively is the hope that it is not yet too late for peace.
Germany stood up on her hind legs and shouted that she could wiph the world, but so far she is holding her fire. Hitler may be thinking of the historic downfall of other seemingly successful campaigns. Germany won many great victories in 1914-1918, but was finally humbled in ignominious defeat. Napoleon had the world at his mercy. He humbled many nations and redrew the map of Europe to suit himself. In the end, however, he ruined France economically and internally and finally found his reward at Waterloo and St. Helena.
Hitler may be planning a quick, decisive.
James Warner Bellah's article, "Bombing Cities Won't Win the War" points out the ineffectiveness of air raids. In the last World War, some 1,200 English were killed during German air raids, at an estimated cost of $2,000 a head. For $500, an infantryman can be replaced by a new soldier, drafted, trained, and armed.
Mr. Bellah says "There won't be anything really new in this war—not even war in the air. I'll all face it, and I will not face it, facing one another across a hundred yards of shell-churned bloodmud, and it will go on until the many for wheat give on each day we will stop, because we have lost again, and the cemeteries will be full of dead youth once more, and the hospitals full of life." Mr. Bellah says "show won't open again for another thirty years."
The actors have started to draw the curtain for this latest bloody extravaganza, but the opening number has yet to be played. In the meantime, the world may draw new hope in knowing that all's quiet on the western front, and mediation is still possible between the nations.

And as for some people who don’t mind—mind well, he can be dismissed with the remark that he's simply got a whole case of jitters.
This department is going to start a campaign for a new unit of time, namely the "jitter." A "jitter" is exactly half way between the time you can say "Jimmy Robertson" and two shakes of a lamb's tail. The need for the term is apparent: your friends for that you were "only 15 years" to class today and they will understand, even if your professor does't.
