True, the slate may not be entirely clean in some cases, for the red peril of the transcript card, the tale-telling, crisism "F", has preyed just as heavily during the last term as **x**, but even the victims of this urge have the privilege of backing **u** for a new start at the barrier that proved their stubbling block. A clean slate should mean a great deal to many students. How many can look back over the courses of the semester just finished and consciously be satisfied with what they accomplished and obtained in the hours spent in class room and study? How many have even approached that ideal situation of having received full value in information and training in return for the time spent in the course? With this semester's clean slate, let's go after that ideal. The ideal of forgetting the two, three, or five hours of credit that one gets out of a course, and concerning one's self as to the knowledge obtained; of striving for an education; not for degree; a possession not a name. A GOOD THING Freshmen do you know what are the big advantages offered you by the R. O., T. C,? In the first place you will get pay for taking the courses in military science, once you have completed the basic work. This pay comes in monthly installments throughout the entire year and amounts to fifteen dollars a month. This is more than enough to pay for all your fees and text books and then have enough left over to help you pay your stadium pledge. Beside being renumerative the work of the R. O. T. C. is credited toward a degree. If you are in the college it is possible for you to make fifteen hours, in the School of Engineering, thirteen hours. This coming summer if you are a member of the R. O. T. C. you will have the choice of three places for a summer vacation with all expenses furnished. You may choose the lake country of Illinois at Camp Sheridan, the hills of Virginia at Fortress Monroe or the slopes of sunny California near San Francisco. The work offered in the R. O. T. C. courses are interesting. You are paid for your time. In these blizzard days of January you can look forward to an instructive period at some camp this summer with your classmates. Find out about it, then enroll. THIS WEEK ENDS Now that the semester is here and we are filled with good resolutions for the coming term, it might be well to consider how we are to spend the week ends. The two days at the end of the school week are among the brightest spots of college life. After a week of class recitation and hard work, these days are bailed as a relief from the regular routine. Necessary rules forbid much merry making on our school days but on the week end there is always a round of social gaiety, and for many students mirth and pleasure reigns supreme. But not every student regards Friday and Saturday as the stepping stones to a good time. To the very consciouscientious student it represents an opportunity to get caught up, or get a little ahead in his school work. He feels that the right to celebrate over the week end must be earned. If he is able to keep abreast with or on top of the mass of work that always seems to accumulate during the week, he is willing and ready to celebrate. But regardless of what type of student mind is represented, it is always an excellent thing to be able to dismiss school cares from the mind and dust the co-bebs of close confinement from the brain cavity for a short time each week. With a refreshed mind and a stimulated interest in things outside of school life, the work of the week will run more smoothly and more efficiently. FOOTBALL'S BLACK EYE Gossip is buzzing in the world of sport about another scandal in American athletes that has come to light through the suspension of nine University of Illinois football players and a threatened expulsion of some of Notre Dame's football men. It seems that two small towns in Illinois have for years been bitter rivals, and feeling has always run high on the occasion of their annual football game. So according to newspaper reports, one town decided to hire a team of college stars and "wipe out" the other in the matter of betting. They hired the stars, but it so happened that the other town was not slow either, and did exactly the same thing. The other town won and collected some $50,000 in bets, press dispatches say. So American athletes have received another black eye. Not long ago the Chicago White Sox baseball team had a number of players tried for throwing a World Series game, and the sporting world was agast. Baseball—the pride of America and supposedly the cleanest sport existing—had its character blacked by the lust of Mammon; by the lure of the dark green paper! But when spartum recovered from this shock it congratulated itself that it still had intercollege football. Football was played only in colleges—in schools, where young men were seeking a higher education and the game was played for the love of sport with no thought of money. New football has slipped by the way. It was a cruel blow to find that baseball was crooked; it is doubly worse to know that college football is deteriorating in the same manner. A few more such scandals and exposures, and baseball, football, and even lawn tennis if we are not careful, will be listed for elimination by the blue-law advocates. The University of Illinois officials are to be commended for suspending the men who brought disgrace on their school. But expulsion will never erase the blot the school has received; it will never remove the black eye that the greatest college sport has received!

His is a remarkable, clear-cut portrayal of the noble D'Artagnau, the wonderful hero of Dumas' amazing novel of Medieval France. Second: It pays you forty dollars each semester.
