C.. under Act of Mjirch 3, 1879. S.\Tl RDAY, MARCH 14. 193H. THE CAMPUS Have you ever paused foi- a few minutes and conscientiously gazed- at the campus at Elon? If you haven’t, do .so! I'^on's campurii is Indeed a beautiful sight—whether it be in winter or summcT. Elon can 'boast of naving- one of the most at- tr.ictive campusew of any school its s.ize. 'I'o view it from the i.-outh i.ide is indeed a treat. As passengers on the train see Klon for the fr.st time, tho,y must be struck by the beauty of a collcge set in the midst of stately oaks. The five administrativfv buildings are t ymmoti'ically arranged, and' the situation of the dormitories in no way destroys the harmony of the picture. T.) cnhance the majesty of the oaks, from which Elon takes its name, there is an abundance of shruljbery and smaller trees. •Mingled with tlie oaks and rearing their tall silhoiuettti against the red- brick buildings aie many murmuring pines. I )n the west s;ide the arlior when covered with ros'es inspires even (he colde.st heart with thoughts of romance. To complete the picture of an ideal campus, stands the imposing granite monu ment to O'Kelly. Stop today and see your campus, not as a matter-of-fact place, but as a thing of beauty which nature is daily making lovejier. Talking about “high-school stuff” what could be more juvenile than college students who are supposedly grown up, who deface the noticesi placed on the bulletin board in Alamance hall with their weak attempts at humor. A notice was placed on the bulletin board Monday, asking that all students who were interested In joining a study groups to dis cuss questions centering around 'world peace, please sign tjheil- names. It was a serious notice, yet by noon time, ambitious stud ents had listed ten names of characters fram Adolph Hitler to Al fred III. The bulletin board is the only way that students can be given da'ily notice of things that must be announced, and since it hais a EeriouK, d-efinite purpose, students should not use it to demonstrate their wit. If you have to be funny, send examples of your humor home 'to mother. She may appreciate it because you are her darling.

BAND It seems on this carni)u.si when any one organization begins to pull itself towaird the toi> that it is uji to the students to begin knocking it a.nd making fun of it. It has been said that the bigger the obstacles in the path to succesi.^f the more api^reciated- the suc cess: but why can't the students of I-^lon campus lend their support and aid to a group is working for the good of Elon? Our band is an organization to be proud of and it is uj) to us to ]>us‘h them onward. They are beginning a d-rive now for uniforms and they cannot succeed imle.ss the .student body supports them. Think of the splendor of the sight of Elon College’s band marching in form- :ition, a veritable l>lank(>t of Mar(jon and Gold finally ending in the miiklle of the gridiron to send for the «welling strains of our Alma Mater. There has been qjuite a bit saiid about “The Elon Spirit” both good Jind bad and now is the time to redeem the bad and enhance the good. We can’t expect our band- to continue without our sup- l>t)rt and it is easy to see that t'he ‘‘sjiirit" at a game id better, due^ to the pre.sence of the band. So let every .'Student support the, band in its drive in every way i)O.SL-iible. Dear Ed; Since when did all the boys of Elon College become CHEAP? It has been stated by one of authori ty at this noble institution of learning that all boys with whom th2 fairer sex ac'i'OciatRS, are wllh out a doiibt "fiheapi*’ We wonder what a boy must do in ordci' to qualify as a gentle man of noble character? It seems according to the person of author ity, that there are no gentlemen on this campus. Boys w'hat ig the roulj'.c? C^an \VG not impres-s upon Lhia noble person's mind that we ar;i gentlemen? How are we to impress? Boys get your powder, your lip stick, your rouge and- above all don't forget your skirts and lets bo s'cntlemen of the old school. It has also been stated that the boy* do not associate with the right type of women (girls). Sup pose we go out and find more women with Aphradatical propor tions, and list them along with our own Elon co-eds. A Mislead Gentleman As A Knave Sees It LETTER TAG Private H. 'W'.

''Bugs.''.” has suddenly turnccJ into a social outcast. These days make me think of Millay’s “God World.” Did you know that Grant was almost disimisse'd from the Fed'- eral Army for drinking? I recom mend Hervey Allen's biograp'hy of Poe. It is very readable. I wonder if John Keats’ refusal to visit Shelley and Byron in Italy was really because of their repu- ation. I gotta ceaise I'm starving. “Trade with Maroon and Artvorti.sers,” Gold Dear ‘‘Beaty” Wilkins: Another ran letter for the Girls’ Baisketball team! I think you girls of the various teams should know just hew wc feel about it. We think it Is a fine thing. It is the begining of the much needed orpaniaation of sports for girls. You know the beginning is al ways difficult, yat you made a good start. Mrs, Cobb worked' in dustriously and wa.q quite success ful in obtaining the Boy’s Gym from Coach Walker (no easy task, you'll admit), the girls cooperat ed cheerfully with her and played well; and not only the girls but abo the boys gave the teams a rousing good- backing.
