April; Aid Census
Feeling that college students,
like every other section of the
population, will benefit from a re
liable national inventory, the U.
S. bureau of the census is asking
them to do their part in mak
ing the 1940 nose-counting a
success. The bureau needs their
help in the gigantic task of as
sembling facts about the 132 mil
lion Americans in two ways. First,
by making sure that their parents
will report on them to the census
enumerator; and, second, by sup
plying their parents with certain
information they will need in or
der to report on them accurately.
The later precaution is advisable
even for students living at home,
since they may be at class when
the enumerator arrives.
Inform Parents
Offhand, it might be thought
that parents would know every
thing about the student which
would be called for in the census.
The questions which are being
asked in 1940, however, are some
what more complex than those of
previous years, reflecting the need
for facts bearing on the many
problems which have arisen in the
United States during the event
ful decade just closing.
The queries on which parents
are most likely to be uncertain
are those relating to employment
status. Information is wanted on

Believe it or not, the local fire
engine was pushed to the scene
of the fire and with the assist
ance of the local C. C. C. boys
and a few brave student firemen,
succeeded in extinguishing the
blaze.
Several of the other rooms in
the building were defaced by fire
and smoke, and the heroic stu
dents proudly display scars re
ceived while punching their fists
through window panes. Repairs
will begin as soon as damages are
estimated.

Pre-Medical Students Present First
Public Program Of New Civ
Pictured above is “Our Daddy”

speaker at the Easter sunrise ser-
vire held in the city auditorium
of Asheville. Many of the stu
dents heard their early-rising
president speaking before they
were out of bed.

rendered by the girls’ glee club of
Lee Edwards high school and the

rial Baptist church.
McCroskey Is New
B. S. U. President
In a meeting held Tuesday,
March 19, the pre-medical club
of Mars Hill college made the
first public presentation, before
a group of interested visitors and
the regular members, of the type
of work it is carrying on.
Featured in the program were
two extensive research papers
read by Buck Fowlkes and Roy
Totherow. The two papers, which
formed the bulk of the program,
were rather lengthy and present
ed in some detail the subjects with
which they dealt. The reading of
the papers was arrested at inter
vals in order to give listeners an
opportunity to ask any questions
that might have arisen. At the
end of each address, all who
wished entered into a general dis
cussion of the subjects in ques
tion. The speech delivered by Mr.
Fowlkes dealt with tfie spirchete
pallidium and that of Mr. Tothe
row with lobar pneumonia.
In this meeting the public was
given its first view of the type of
research carried on in the club,
and, incidentally, some new
knowledge of the subjects discus
sed. Several new members were
gained, and visitors were request
ed to state their opinions of the
program presented.
