$100.00 To College Student
Writing Best Essay on
“What’s Wrong With
Professors?’'
At last, the prospective graduates
and those underclassmen on the
verge of flunking out of any college
or university in the United States
are given an opportunity to air their
feelings about that certain professor
with whom they simply could not
get along. “The Muhl,” of Muhlen
berg College, is offering $100.00 in
gold to that American college stu
dent who submits the most thought-
provoking and constructive essay on
“What’s Wrong With Professors?”
In view of the fact that some col
lege men might become too facetious
in their contributions, the editors of
“The Muhl” reserve the right to de
bar any such essays from the con
test unless they are constructive in
spite of their frivolity. A prominent
publication house has already caught
the spirit and the possibilities of
such a survey of the college men’s
points of view, so that the prize-win-
ning essay, in addition to the most
constructive of the others, will be
published in book form this summer.
There are hardly any rules to the
contest. Simply typewrite, doubh
space, the essay of no more than five
hundred (500) words on ordinary
81/2x11 inch sheets of paper. Essays
should be sent immediately to THE
MUHL, Muhlenberg College, Allen
town, Penna., for this novel contest
closes at midnight, June 1, 1931.
The editors of this newspaper “have
a hunch” that there will be no dearth
of contributions from this campus.
Contributors are asked to place
their name and summer address as
well as tlie name of their college, at
the top of the first page. The authors
should also enclose a list of personal
data, campus activities, prizes they
may have won, chosen profession,
with the name and address of theii-
home-town newspaper, so th.at the
publicity department may notify the
papers if their essay should win the
$100.00 prize, or be accepted for
publication.

not only did it convincingly, but im
parted to the role considerable dis
tinction, giving it an emphatic mas

Endowed with a low, thougfi not

In the traditional Greek manner,
a chorus entered at intervals, break

Rosalie Smith, Edith Fulp, Doris
Kimel, Wanna Mary Huggins, and

Antigone was a dramatization of
the old Greek traditions of love ver
sus duty. The tragedy brought out
the moral of wisdom’s being all-
sufficient, even in the young. The
cast was well-east and well-trained.
Each member acted her role in a
thoroughly successful manner.
