I PAGE TWO THE CLARION APRIL 26, 1963 Success Is Failure Turned Inside Out For most people, especially those engaged in a mighty strug gle between brawn and brain, failure looms forcefully across the horizons causing the tempted to often fall short of his ambi tions. The following poem expresses the ups-and-downs of a winner. When things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill, When the funds are low and the debts are high. And you want to smile but have to sigh. When care is pressing you down a bit — Rest if you mus-t, but don’t you quit. Life is queer with its twists and turns As everyone of us sometimes learns, And many a fellow turns' about When he might have won had he stuck it out. Don’t give up though the pace seems slow — You may succeed with another blow. Often the goal is nearer than It seems to a fainit and flattering man; Often the struggler has given up When he might have captured the victor’s cup; And he learned too late when the right came down How close he was to the golden crown. Success is failure turned inside out — The silver tint of the clouds of doubt. And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems afar; So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit — It’s when things seem worst that you mustn’t quit. — Unknown Wits Of West of Yung Hwan Works Hard Dear Sponsors, How have you been? I hope that yoiu- college is making pro gress gradually. You m;ay be studying and working hard in this lovely spring season. I feel as if I were seeing your books before my eyes now. Be cause of you I am all right in sound health, and am doing my best for my studies. My family are well in sound and good health as usual, except our sick mother, and we are deeply con cerned about her always. It rained for some days and buds of plants begin to come out little by little. Green buds of branches of trees on the streets begin to spring up also. This is the second month since we started 5th grade, and we are full of great hope. My class - mate and his fam ily moved to the house in front of our own. He is excellent in his studies, for he has a tutor. Though I wish to have one, I can’t do so due to our unfavor able family isituation at present. However, I’ll strive to do my best more and more. I’ll study harder so as to go to a fine school in near future. I go to school an hour earlier and study myself these days. My teacher said to my mother that I have made progress as a result. I’m enclosing a picture of me taken with my twin sisters along with this letter. Both of of them are in 2nd grade this year. They are seven years old, attend school well and study hand always. They can sing and dance quite all right as well. I’ll be glad and happy, if you kindly introduce your school and send your own pic ture for us next time. May God bless you richly al ways. Sincerely yours, Yung Hwan Translated April 16, 1963 1880 Newspaper There are times in the lives every author, and every would-be-author, such as I, when there must be a certain, intri cate amount of soul-searching and subject-searching in order to continue writing, whether his style be allegorical, satirical, or attempted humor. I, as an imposter in the world of journalists, have invaded, snooped, and uncovered four topics of what, I believe, detri mental subject material to every participant, observer, or abstain er on this campus. They are, not arranged here in order of importance: bottles, bermudas, bums, and 'bombs. Now, don’t attempt to conjure any connection among the four because there is not any as far as I can determine. Bottles: Miranda Whitlow, can teen manager in Jones Hall, re cently announced “No bottles, no drinks.” After a dry week end, apparently a portion of the miss ing 18 crates (432) bottles were returned because we are all drinking again. Bermudas: I still can not ex actly see why boys, or men if you prefer, can wear bermudas to the library, cafeteria, or labs while girls, who, in my opinion, have much mwe attractive knees cannot even wear culottes to these places. Equal rights grant ed to women in 1920? I don’t be^lieve it! Burns: At present there are three types of burns known to medical authorities on campus. (1) sunburn inlaid from long ago Saturday’s sun, (2) heart burn caused by over anxiety of whether or not certain parties will make it to the May Dance, escorted preferably, and (3) just plain “burning sensations” cre ated by campused Jones Hall dormitory, which incidentally in cludes the fourth of my subjects — BOMBS. One question I, and many friends ask, “How can a cherry bomb be exploded accidentally?” An all-expense paid hamburger special at Berry’s will be award ed to the person submitting the most expressive account of such a mishap to me by 12:00 noon, May 7. A special coliunn de voted to this explanation will appear in the Clarion on May 10. Submissions should be plac ed in Box 433. American (Continued From Page One) Adams and then his answer to their letters. Also contained in the paper is a heart - warming poem, “General Washington,” written “By A Young Lady,” and a let ter from his Royal Highness the Archduke Charles. The adver tisements in the paper include announcements of the sale of slaves and humorous personal notices as well. A place for hanging the framed newspaper has not yet been decided on by the librar ians, but they expect to es tablish a suitable place for it soon. Everyone is invited to come to the library to view the paper at any time.

Love Wins Again In Marriage Poll “Love never faileth” — to be number one requirement for matrimony. For the fourth suc cessive year, Mrs. Harris’ class in marriage has chosen the ten der passion as a prime prerequis ite to wedded bliss. However, not every one of the sixty-eight members of Sociolo gy 28 placed I’amour in the top position. Three males thought maturity necessary; two rated, above all, a companionable com panion; and two believed that being a Christian is the most desirable asset. One male voted for personal appearance, and one added a qualification — his bride must be a virgin. The girls voted almost solidly for love, but a few thought their future spouses should show ma turity and understanding of their wives. The number two spot was harder to pin down. Some males considered personality and ma turity very important, while oth ers went on record for the same interest and ^being a Christian. Several females (next to love) desired an understanding hus band, while others will settle for a mature person with the same interests, preferably a Christian. 'One marriageable co-ed com mented; we quote “He must be a person who likes to walk in the moonlight holding hands and not sitting in a parked car making out.” Biltmore Tours (Continued From Page One) tion which has been called the “Home of Conservation” in the Western Hemisphere.
