TUESDAY, MAY 6, 1930 SERVICE PLUS The student hospital last year gave service to more than 2,000 different students during the school term, which means that more than two thirds of the campus population took advantage of the three-dollar health fee. Besides the service given individual students for their various lil's physical examinations for all freshmen and new students were given. Members of the R. O. T. C. were required to have medical statements, and members of its advanced course are required to have typoid and small-pox inhalations, which the student hospital gave without any charge. These results of service can be seen, but there are others which are not directly in the limelight. If students were not learning that the hospital and dispensary is for their use, they would not take advantage of it. It is teaching them to look after their health regularly. ONE NEVER KNOWS Imagine standing on the bank of a swimming pool and watching some one drown. You cannot swim, cannot be of any help to the one in distress. The picture is not a pleasant one, yet such things happen all too frequently. The most thorough preparation for life-saving is being offered this weekend to students in the University pool. Most people can swim a little, but how many can swim well enough to rescue another? We may rely on life-savers, but the time may come when there is no life-savers around at the critical time. Then it is that we come to realize the value of our training, or lament the lack of our ability. CONVICT X46812 William S. Paley, President of the Columbia Broadcasting System, sent a letter enclosing a check for $200 to Prisoner X4812 in recognition of the latter's broadcast from the scene of the fire. Through the broadening of WAUIU, nurses, physicians, narcotics were rushed with all possible haste to relieve suffering in the penitentiary. Thus the service rendered was great. The broadcaster is known as "The Deacon" mainly because he is a graduate of the Moody Bible Institute. He is supervisor of prison radio programs, Prismer X A6812 is a negro a life terner for first degree murder. The whole Ohio disaster brought to light the element of heroism in the men who live within the high walls of the penitentiary. While one may commit one act that forever dooms him to imprisonment, given the opportunity, he may be capable of deeds of greatest self sacrifice. GANDHI ARRESTED Gandhi tells his followers if civil disobedience can be carried to its conclusion, independence is a certainty and "India will have set to the whole world an example worthy of her." The West believes firmly in machine guns, in troops, in armed force. It seems a weird dream of an Eastern fanatic to put faith in "soul force" as a means of conquering. Yet civil disobedience on a large scale, duplications of governmental machinery, bycott of British goods, may prove ef- active in time. To seek to gain liberty without violence is an unheard of experiment. Many who are following the papers for news of India are interested in their own reactions to the issues. Conflict arises between our religious ideal and our materialistic civilization. India is the only example in which quiet non-participation has been organized on a national scale. Industrialism has hardly touched Indian life, while the materialism of the West is not desirable. He does not wish for his people achievement of a capitalist regime. The imagination is caught by the picture of India with her caste system broken, her vast wealth turned to productive means, her freedom from mort broken, her vast wealth turned to productive means, her freedom from foreign dominion gained, her own talents turned to her own needs. India has a rich and brilliant past. Her civilization is not that of the West, nor is her philosophy once Yet India may again startle the world with the power of a people who can peaceably resist. MRS. WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE Words of praise went over the campus Saturday night and Sunday following the inspiring talk given by Mrs. William Allen White. Her ad- sneeze was here to give young people encouragement rather than denounce them. Her attitude gave one a comfortable feeling that the speaker was on a common level with her audience. She assumed no "high-brow" air, nor did she appear confidently in groupings. One felt very much at home in inspired, and very much in inspired. The mothers were immensely pleased with the things that she said. And as for the daughters—well, the daughters were not only entertained—they felt that they had been listening not only to a very witted woman but to a supermother! DESCRIBING SOCIALISM If the newly formed Socialist club will be as nearly scientific and as little partisan as possible, it may come to perform an invaluable service. its organization is to be different from that of the usual club or literary society. It will concentrate on the presentation of both sides of economic questions. An executive committee of five will choose the presiding officer for each meeting, the subject to be considered, and two or more well-known or expert speakers to present different views on the subject. After these two speakers have spoken for 20 minutes each, every member of the audience will ask questions or talk for not more than three minutes. The debate will close promptly at a pre-arranged time, lest it degenerate into a bull session. The advantages of this method are many. Changing the presiding officer gives experience in leading to different persons. No member of the audience need lack a chance to speak, since all will be called upon. And the discussion, being limited, should tend to remain pertinent and sensible. Capitalism and socialism in all their many phases have able defenders, and they become increasingly important as time goes on. If the Socialism club removes some of the dense ignorance on the subject, it will have done something; even a working definition of socialism is more than 90 per cent. of the people now have to most it is only another word in the dictionary, unrelated totally to life. At The Concert Last night the band, directed by J. Bass, presented a brilliant cork which was designed for the Technikowsky march "Slav." Not only did the member fulfill the technical requirements of the cork with precision and following the director implicitly, but they did a fairly complex job, including Three and one-half months of training can work wonders with a musical organization, and the improvement of their performance in concert is certainly proof of it. By John Shively The band was at its best in the heavier and more brilliant selections. The band's most important achievement march gave the organization its best opportunity to display its brilliance, and the opportunity was not lost. The brasses were peppy and confident in their performance, but their not so voluminous but important part, and the too-often neglected percussions were doing their share. An important player filled an important part. parent in the climatic passages from the "Raymond" overture, the fourth movement in the "Atlantis" suite, and the "Oberon" overture. The same superior quality was apa rite must speak for itself ... and Chesterfield's refreshing, spicy flavor, its characteristic fragrance, do just that. The organization was not as consistent in the lighter selections. The staccato passages in the opening humour were often more disjointed and second movement of the "Altnistis" suite contained appropriately dainty passages. But we should like to pass on that touching detail to the teacher to the band, particularly the clarinets, that most of "Pouce Valaré" should be daigny. Clarinets are supposed to be particularly notisy, in翅way. Perhaps this heaviness was part of a let-down which followed the band's second album, as well in tune in the "Oberon" overture as in the other heavier numbers, nor in the more lyrical choruses of the flute and clarinet duet was up to the standard of the remainder. Martin Mills takes the honors in this duet for his smoothly played cendence and accurate work when both instruments were playing Ralph Lahmer still has some things to like about lighter playing with a better tone. Sydney David played the difficult "Light Caviar" overture on his xylophone with acillating brilliance, and he wowed the audience through the Rye as an encore. The "Norwegian Dances" by Gries, was somewhat resilient after the operat- ment, and he was able to sing. The audience wanted to sing the chorus of Mr. McCanes sentimental- ism, "Ione," on account of its cataty- ment. He could not help but trumpet, he could still play the trumpet. Our Contemporaries --a rite must speak for itself ... and Chesterfield's refreshing, spicy flavor, its characteristic fragrance, do just that. The world needs more good poetry than it has been receiving. The age of the poets is growing, and poems, if given more of a chance, the poets could tense up down with their words, as they did in poetry. Poetry is the essence of order and harmony. The soul of man could do better with it. Fraternity pledges are no longer taken for burglaries, but it is quite possible they are being used to fraternity pledges, said an Oklahoma chief of police in asking fraternity leaders to stop them from town alleys. This condition indicates, no doubt, that the food is poor at Oakland. —The Columbus Dispatch A Georgia Tech professor voiced a preference for well-dressed students and three men came to class next day dressed in tuxes.
