PHOTO P:NGRAVERS ^ MONTALDO’S FOURTH AT CHERRY Correct Apparel in all Types of Costumes for the School Girl Is it riglit to lead people to think one thing, treat them another way and lower their grades accordingly! Is it right for the instructor tc take credit off a paper because i blank sheet was used to cover the written work? I donU know, I just ask. If it’s customary, and th( usual thing that's done in intellec tual circles. I think it only right that the poor victims be m ' of it. I agree that the grading system problem is a difficult one to solve and each instructor doubtlessly haf his or her own method. But the fundamentals of justice certainly must be recognized. This business of allowing personal likes and dis likes and tastes to enter into the grading is a serious evil, and the teacher who deliberately and boldly slashes off three points here and two there for nothing whatsoevi tainly is unjust and unfair—to her self and the student The whole school cannot help suffering, and certainly the reputation of the teacher and the department are af fected. There is no student in any college who can become indignant when her low grade is deserved—but student can and ought to be right eously indignant when her grade is reduced deliberately for some paltry —not reason—as adding ar sheet of paper to the worl handed in. That extra sheet wai needed—the rest of the papers werf full of writing—there was no roon These points were carelessly r« moved for ■waste of paper!

No longer will Stanford Univer sity women be forced to smoke in stuffy rooms behind locked doors— and burn incense before leaving. After many secret discussions the Conference declared in fa- ?or of liberalized smoking rule by - vote of 68 to 1. By the new rule the women may not smoke in public places on the Righteous Indignatior One of the pet theories at Salem College is that of Co-opera •"hat is one of the things about 'hich we hear most. Co-operj -loval support — interest—■ e urricula activity—and all that of thing. Do not leave the campus for your recreation. Do not go tear ing down town to spend your spar time. The campus is the place t> stay. There is plenty to do down here for amusement, and ample IS for entertainment. And yet LC main amusement and enter- lent that is offered to Salem girls on Saturday afternoon is hik- These hikes take the girls ly from the campus. Nearly any college student will admit that Sat urday afternoon is a hard part of the week. There is a sort of let down feeling, and we feel that after are entitled to any kind of recr ation that we can find and yet * * Certain college girls realized th any kind of activity on Saturday afternoon would be well patronized. Tliey knew that this would be an admirable opportunity to get money for the worthy purpose of covering the swimming pool. Therefore they arranged a basket ball game bet the College Varsity and a chosen from members of the Fac ulty. The Varsity agreed gladl.i play the exhibition game. ' Faculty members likewise agn with fear and trembling, to meet the undefeated champions of Salem Col lege. The enterprise was enthusias tically rceived by the student body, ed. And yet * * * THE BASKETBALL GAME WAS POSTPONED. Among the students there h been a great deal of speculati as to the real cause for the post ponement of the game. None of us really knows a reasonable excuse Of course, we understand that the Faculty are a great and mighty body that is responsible to no stu dent body for its actions. We real ize that if they chose to do so. they might or might not, require anything under the sun of the stu dents as a whole. "However, this question of the omnipotence of the faculty is not the one which we are considering. It is the principle of the thing—the theory of good s])ortsmanship and the theory of playing the game. We have always considered our faculty good sports, As a whole, I am convinced that they are good sports. Now, at e time when they have a chance to show their sportsmanship they com( up lacking. Did they show ani semblance of good sportsmanship We’ll say that they didn’t. One of these days they will expect us to play off this game. If they will read up on the rules of the Sport ing world they will discover that games that are postponed without a sufficient and reasonable excuse are forfeited to the team that was ready and willing to play. There fore the Varsity really are the un disputed champs. And we are brought back to the original ques tion—“WHY WAS THE GAME POSTPONED?” —Signed An Interested Onlo As host to the American Chemical Society, the Virginia Section will en tertain the society in the annual spring meeting to be held in Rich mond from April 11 to 16. This is the first time that the spring meet ing has been held in the South, al though several years ago the fall meeting was held in Birmingham. In view of the fact that there will be fifteen hundred chemists from a] ver the country at the meeting, i 'ill be a great advertisement for the' South. —The Technicii SHOE REPAIRING SHOP While You Wait W.
