EYES FRONT
Seniors may indulge in lingering glances at favorite hounds on the campus, finzing of well-worn texts, and dangling of pins and keys to their hearts' content in the next few weeks if such leisurely occupations can be crowded into the twenty-four-hour a day run. It is well that they enjoy life with dislissable friends, for once the door of the University has swaving behind the outgoing senior, he must strike out without so much as a backward glance.
Glorified descriptions of the panoramic view from Mount Ouread, dissertations on classroom activities, the bulk of formidable texts, and tales of undying friendships somehow fail to impress a boss unless he gets the idea that perhaps he made a mistake in taking on some new help after all. So, seniors, grab onto the last precious moments of your college life, engrave the thrills and joys deeply in your memory, if you will, but don't rely on them to carry you along in a calledous world.
JUNIOR COLLEGES
A survey of the scholastic standing of the junior college student* at the University has been completed by Prof. E. F. Engel, chairman of the university junior college committee.
This investigation shows that in 1927-28 the scholastic standing of the junior college student was 1.30. The all-University standing was 1.27.
These rankings, practically the same, show that the junior college student does not suffer from losing two years from attendance at the university.
This report should convince the doubtful that junior colleges are a successful innovation and are doing a fine work over the state.
QUACKERY
The pursuit of health runs a close second to the pursuit of happiness for claiming the attention of the fickle American public. To many people the ends are synonymous. The remarkable feature of this race for health, lies, however, in the case with which the average man and woman lay aside their native intelligence when it comes to choosing ways and means. Indeed, the health of women is one of the glorious enda which they promise. The gullibility of the infirm is truly astonishing. Small wonder that ingenious people of business enterprise are ready to capitalize on the credibility of humankind.
There has arisen a great army of these public malaffectors who continue to thrive and prosper at the expense of their patients in spite of all efforts to curtail their movements. There are those who probably cause no great harm, other than financial, and other quacks whose nostrums are known to be positively harmful in a physical way. Neither type of promoter can be regarded as a desirable citizen.
What a fascinating variety of methods is used to lure the public in its pursuit of a new panacea. There is the whole collection of patent medicines, remarkable appliances and devices, such as a unique tape-worm trap recently advertised, drugs and derivatives, salves, magic daintings, charms, faith cures, and correspondence courses in physical culture from schools of
dubious origin. Occupying the lightheart at present are the various obesity, cures, "harmless" ways of reducing, ranging from ointments to rub on, tablets to this appliance to wear. Along with this popular field, there is the "school" of pseudo-physiologists who promise to develop a radiant personality in an extensive course of five lessons.
The revelations of the American Medical Association in connection with the wide-spread popularity of quackeries is not exactly complimentary to the level of the American intelligence
SACHEM INITIATES
We held Sachem initiation in the editorial column the other night. The boys who will get his honor over around the Rock Chalk Cairn sometime in the future probably wondered what it was all about—eir initiation. After after watching the initiation wasn't quite so good as it might have been.
As to an accusation that we have been reading the Literary Digest—it is wrong. Neither did we ever do anything to violate our own better judgment. Bacchus has never laid his spell on us. We never steal out of the ice-box either. Dreams never bother us.
The only reason we offer for the initiation is a wild hair somewhere.
CRIME CLINICS
No one cares to build any protecting sentiment around a criminal, for he is a destroyer of society's interests. Hering them into overcrowded prisons however, has not seemed to be a constructive measure for preventing crime, and because neither sentiment nor prisons for all has helped, new measures must be tried. In a Detroit court a certain judge has instituted a new method for handling criminal cases in 1930. Every year he has seen young men sent to prison at a most impressionable age; he has observed that no account was taken of the fact, nor of the reasons why they committed the crime. It hardly seems possible that all criminals have a pleasure motive behind their deeds. When a man friendiably mutilates childish bodies, surely no one would believe him to be a whole man. There must be such twisted in his mind. And for such reasons, Judge Marphy has introduced the studying of histories. He has recorded cases so fully that his records are probably the most complete ever compiled. All records are made after a thorough investigation of the criminal's history, and sentence is passed by a board of three—the judge, the head of the probation department, and the chief of the psychiatric staff. These three decide on a sentence that will most benefit society and the prisoner.
Men are not necessarily kept out of prison because of this crime clinic. If the board decides that isolation would benefit society, the prisoner is sentenced for a reasonable length of time. But if his case does not warrant his being into prison, the board places him on probation and tries to co-operate in bringing about his rehabilitation. In that way the resentment and hatred for society shown by prisoners is greatly reduced.
Judge Murphy's idea varies from that coldly scientific attitude and also from too great a sympathy for a criminal. And, although it is a little early to prophey results of this reform, the introducer has been approached by prison wardens who wish to apply his methods.
