GIVE THE LINE A HAND
Because football fans usually attend a game in anticipation of seeing flash runs by the backs, their eyes are closed to any brilliant work on the part of the lineman. How many fans ever watch the opposing linemen when the ball is passed from center? Yet these players open holes in the opposing line before any gains can be made by the backs, and they must expend their energy to keep from being boxed in on the defence. They usually undergo more punishment than the backs, and without the attention and the applause the later receive. Why not watch our lineman and give them a hand. They deserve it.
NGTORIETY
The youthful stowaway who has created "copy" for the newspapers of America is granted the honor of signed articles, "By Clarence Red Teruhune, First Trans-Atlantic Aerial Stowaway." What more are these articles are sent to the United States by radio!
A recent item by the new corres pendent reveals why the younger peo people have legitimate reasons for disliking him. He doneless exaggerates greatly when he says, "I hated leaving Berlin so soon, even though with thousands mobbling me to death for my autograph," also, "Some little fri enklein tried to kiss me, but I'm not strong for this public kissing." Even though he went as a stowaway, he describes, in a few select words, his ad appearance in buggy German clothes
The few Terbane wrote are literally saturated with "I", and "me", a circumstance which probably shows that his own generation can see him as he is, a lad seeking notoriety in the quickest and most unusual fashion.
GUNS AND CARELESSNESS
Guns are dangerous plightings for fools and children. A person who does not thoroughly understand a gun has no business using one. It is true that accidents occur with people who have handled fires all their lives, but a general knowledge of the way to hold a gun and an appreciation of its danger would do away with accidents caused from ignorant carelessness.
Three men who evidently had been hunting walked across the campus the other day carrying rifles. They had bagged some rabbits and it was only because of Providence that they did not bag some of the many students on the Hill at that time. One carried his gun in his right hand, grasping it about the lock and swinging it nonchallantly at his side. He stopped at a crossing to bid his friends goodbye, and onlookers were utterly amazed to see him place the barrel of his gun on his foot and lean on the stock. We had always thought this was done only in the funny papers and moving pictures! A second rested the stock of his gun on the walk, supporting it with a hand dangerously near the end of the barrel. The third held his gun in a manner that did not immediately threaten the life and safety of those around him.
Legal restrictions which would make it impossible for anyone without proper knowledge of firearms' to
obtain them would eliminate incidents like the above. It might be more practical to give instruction in the public schools in order to give both boys and girls some knowledge of how to hold a gun, how to carry a gun, to load and mould it, and to use the safety devices. Such a provision would be in the interest of everyone of us.
HERBERT HOOVER
Herbert However has been elected President of the United States by an overwhelming majority. The American people have shown conclusively by their voting that they desire to entrust him with the administration of their country for the next four years.
The election is over and on March 4, 1929, Mr. Hoover will take up the reins of government. Although of humble parentsage Mr. Hoover is an educated man, having received his A. B. degree from Leland Stanford University. Other universities have conferred honorary degrees upon him. At an early age he began his brilliant economic career when he started his work for the re-establishment of mines.
A statesman rather than a politician is to be the next president of the United States. Mr. Hoover has received adequate economic training in this country; the many boards in which he holds membership indicate wide recognition of his ability. In Europe he has received diplomatic as well as economic training. His relief work abrad has made him famous—Belgium will be eternally grateful. As Secretary of Commerce he has guided successfully for the past eight years our nation's trade. From humble beginnings, Herbert Hoover, the man upon whom every eye is focused today, has risen. He seems to have been predestined for big things, and to culminate his career, he has achieved the greatest of all honors—He is president of the United States of America by an overwhelming vote of the American people.
"A Night Watchman Beaten," reads a headline. No, this is not politica. The watchman was actually "beaten up."

THE ITALIAN PRESS
Massolini at a gathering of Italian newspaper men lt'd them that they were the freest in the world. The principle of Fascism is that there must be no one superior to the most highly perfected or the perfect scheme of society and government, it is apparent that opposition to it is not only unhealthy but ridiculous. Massolini says he should admit it, and a perfect system cannot admit or tolerate an imperfection.
By a process of elimination and suppression opinion, journalistic and public opinion has become thereupon it becomes ideally free, in the theory of Italy's dictate, having no desire to say anything in the face of government or operations of government. Mussolini says the press of other countries is capitilistic and thus in bondage, some of it being dependent on low public taste and unable to maintain
So long as the Italian press is a perfect reflection of Mussolini, it is perfectly free, and when he comes to be press, Censorship and suppression thus produce liberty and freedom. There was a time in Mussolini's life when he worked as a lieutenant in the invasion of Russia. He was much better prepared to support Red communism than to oppose it. In spite of his emotion, he had been taking the idea of the state is essentially that of Lenin. He is now an even taller dragon than Stalin, who has dealt with Hitler so successfully as have Mussolini.
The soviet actually permit some variety of opinion within the party, including the issue of paper criticism. When opposition threaten personal power it is disallowed; in Moscow but Mussolini has been able to proceed much further. The preservation free open speech in the press is the encouragement of an active critical opposition are ground principles of representative democracy. The soviet says Mussolini, has been outgrown, failing to meet the needs of modern economy, and consequently of the

Americans Have Chance to Create Individualistic Music of Their Own
As far as is known, the first jazz concert in the world was played by Paul Whiteman at Acelian Hall, New York City, on February 12, 1924. Although musicians in Europe had for years been praising American popular music, although Darius Miland had been studying jazz orchestra and Stravinsky had written a ragtime. A violinist named Walt Disney had answered to anyone that our popular music, our sonnatured舞曲们, and our jazz orchestras, had musical interest.

Two directly contradictory statements; and the Kannan has been accused of being macurate because it did not show up on Thursday and the second on Thursday.
Which all shows how news develops from day to day, and is not a fixed and static thing like Washington's firearms or the chemical formula for aspirin.
Wednesday the athletic association regretted that it had no money to send the band to Missouri. Wednesday night the student council covered the cost of the clothing and provided the money. So both stories were true, although contradictory.

EDUCATION AND CO-EDUCATION
AND CO-EDUCATION
A prominent Campus authority once was broken in the education and co-education were two mutually exclusive terms. This statement was NOT an attempt at wit at the expense of the argumentative tone of its opinion based on long experience in university life, and inferred that the real interests of education suffered from the intermingling of the sexes in the student body; in words, it is claimed attractions and diversities arising from this association are proving dangers to the acquisition of knowledge and under-
But is this generalization in accordance with the facts? Examination statistics fail to show a balance on students in institutions and those whose students belong only to one sex. Whether this is true depends upon the dailyity of examinations as tests either of intelligence or of capability, but the question of how well education spills academic decline.
Again, it is argued that the presence of both sexes in close proximity during formative years at college stirs up an atmosphere of emotion and sensation in a student's fatal to the peace of mind necessary to learning. This argument it appears to us, is fallacious. This close relationship, on the other hand, actually makes one more vulnerable unless given some expression, turns into dangerous inhibitions. A broader outlook in necessary, than would be obtained at colleges for men or women, must be established at co-educational centers which goes far in after life toward making matricial relations the sharing of common interests enjoyments which are obviously to all who have ever attended universities like McCill. It remains like so many other social problems, an individual matter, individuals are subject to their attitude toward life. Some prefer the peaceful solitude of a vaucous existence; others desire the life which is full of varied experience and romance. Everyone for himself, is to emulate law of civilization as of
Steamship companies have remodeled their boats in the last few years to cater to the needs of the great middle class—business men, school students and particularly profitable has been the trade of the latter. Several years ago an eastern men's college found by questionnaire that 87 per cent of the student numbers are increasing every year as students from middle western states now are recounting a tribo to part of their university education.
And co-education will be favored or
distributed according to each individual's
experience and interpretation of its
intricate ramifications and effects.
Some of the schemes to achieve this ambition are ingenuous. Several summers a few group of students from a university in the United States, Europe at a surprisingly low cost, by using bicycles as their means of transportation on the continent. Other students have obtained free unseasonal tuition from universities, entertainers, norrs or members of a dance orchestra. Stoking, so nonplar for the movie hero who has been shanchaol, has巧妙ly disguised the boats at present are oil burners.
"TRAVELLING COLLEGES"
McGill Daily
Noteworthy in the last few years are trips planned by university professors who enable students to re-visit their hometowns or board. Such trips are very reasonable and offer the advantage of congenial communion which is occasionally lacking in some professional tours. The best features of thesecolleges include extended training taken before touring for in addition to a broad cultural background, a
1. There is no such thing as jazz music.
3. The original jazz is now known as "sour music." It has points in its favow, but it has little to do with the American music of the 1920s.
2. Jazz is a method of playing music.
5. Until recently the method of jazz has been applied almost exclusively to one kind of music—opera for the dance.
4. The present American popular music is a growing, developing and changing thing
6. The instruments of the jazz band are wholly legitimate and the uses to which they are put create unique music.
7. The jazz band is in reality a small orchestra.
Of these propositions the first to
you, and it vulgar or refuse, you are
compelled by the facts to recognize
the work of a conductor like White-
burn.
If you take the themes from Verd's 'I Trovarones' and make a piano arrangement, or put Isolde's melody into the flute when you play the Liebstech song, you'll be doing essentially the same thing as Whiteman does when she takes 'Linelouse Blues' and has it for his particular group of instrument.
What Whitman Does
Once you have separated the music from the treatment, the full significance of making music becomes clear. Until a few months ago most of the music played by jazz orchestras was music that was purely melodic song was adopted for dancing; sometimes an operatic sit. But in the main the object was to teach how to play the "monotony" which accounts for the "monotony" which non-dancers object to and it also accounts for the harmonic work of a chorus when you dance you must learn one thing—a spirited and specific beat; otherwise you are indifferent to harmony.
As soon as the instrument of the orchestra was perfected, it began to demand new material; it had won the great American symphony and had to be given new fields to conquer. Hence the appearance of the Whiteman band in the concert hall and homes—even more important—the whiteboard orchestra, music embodying the characteristic American rhythms. Relieved of the necessary consideration of the dancer's demand for 2/4 or 4/4 time, the whiteboard orchestra pledged a wonderful orchestral combination to its limits, American composers have before them the greatest chance of creating American music in Europe, but in their own idioms.
"Rhapsody in Blue"
The opportunity came with the man. If he had done nothing else, there should still be gratitude enough for Mr. Whitman on account of his "happiness in Blue". Here was a composer, curious about all music, full of the spirit of American music, and ready for anything. And the point is that I am not pointing at the development of American music. For it was treated even by the critics hostile to jazz as real music in the American soil. In themes are American themes: its rhythms have the unmistakable beat and retard and syncopation of American nouer and written to be heard not to be duced. All this is very far removed from the cat-alls and timpan noises of early jazz. It makes one wonder what the man would do if we were certain that the word "popular" must not become dead letter—the energy and grace of the old jazz, the dash
and siving must not be sacrificed; for those, and not ignigness and impundence and irreverence, are **we** basic creatures that perceptibly widen, and it is grifterly to note that America is, at last, recognizing something of its own. We have at last come to agree with Euripides, who have something precious in our hands.

UNIVERSITY MEN'S GLEE CLUB:

Are Sunday afternoon rehearsal will be held as usual. On Sunday evening the club will sit at the Armadillo convention in the University Auditorium, wearing business attire. On Monday evening at 8 o'clock the club will sit at the Warner Theater and are to be worn. Attendance of all members is required at all these events.
Upon close internal inspection it has been found, incredible as it may be, that the students who will not fit into these groups. It has also been discovered that there are few rare types of the kind just known to the world: the past, and not a few college stables and flappers take philosophy and psychology and like it. The students who do not exist; he is distinctly an individual and variations are infirmable. The opinion of "The New Student" is that the newspaper—no general statement about him can be entirely true. In effective college slang "there isn't any".
