Golden slumbers kiss your eyes,
Smiles awake you when you rise.
Sleep, pretty wontons, do not cry.
And I will sing a lullaby,
Rock them, rock them, lullaby.

You are care, and care must keep

Sleep, pretty wantons, do not ery,
And I will sing a lullaby,
Rock them, rock them, lullaby.

PENN STATE FRESH
MAN LIKED HIS
FREEDOM
(By Associated Collegiate Press)
State College, Pa. — Compared to
his ^yall tent with its kerosene lamp
and sturdy army cot, John Clenden-
in, Penn State freshman, doesn’t
think much of the room in town that
snow and colder weather have forced
him to move into.
Until just the other day Clendenin
was camping in the woods outside of
town, doing his own cooking on a
small wood stove, and studying by
lamp-light with no sound to dis
turb him cxcept the rustling foot
steps of an occasional small animal.
“It’s not so bad here,” Clendenin
said at his new residence, “but I
liked tent better. I wasn’t so
cooped up.”
He will go back to the woods in
the Spring, Clendenin said.
(By Associated Collegiate Press)
Personal prediction:
Within two years nearly all the
major colleges will be openly paying
their football players for their serv
ices.
It probably will mean a complete
realignment of the amateur-profes
sional relationship, but it is bound
to come. Already a large number of
college editors are back of the move.
The situation is much like that of
prohibition in the latter twenties.
Everyone knew that liquor w^as uni
versally sold — so why not bring it
out in the open where it could be
regulated?
Latest college pajjer to advocate
this move is the Orange and White
of the University of Tennessee. Its
editor points out the significant fact
that college editors are generally
paid for their services. Why not pay
fullbacks? That’s a hard one to
Whenever controversy begins over
any new think, you can generally be
sure that thing has begun to amount
to something.
So it is with American proletariat
literature. For years critics have
been moaning the want of a virile,
real literature of the masses. As the
red ink years have continued the
proletarian spirit in literature has
steadily grown.
A significant localized controversy
has occurred at the University of
Michigan. There the editors of the
Daily have put the bee on the library
officials for not including in their
files the important recent works
about the working classes. Only the
journalism library has them, they
contend. As significant books not
accepted in the regular library ttey
name, “Land of the Free,” “To
Make My Bread,” and “Crisis of
the Middle Class.”
Recently we gave you what we
thought was the ultimate in apple
polishing.
Now wo see that the art has jump
ed its regular traces and breaks out
among professors themselves, as well
as students. We note with a chuckle
the public statement of the history
professor at the University of Wis
consin to the effect that Dr. Glenn
Frank would make a flue Republican
candidate for the Presidency. Glenn
Frank, you will remember, is presi
dent of the University of Wisconsin.
Definition of the student body at
SANTA CLAUS
Y’ou wonder if there is a Sauta
Claus,
You’ve never seen him, you say?
Child, he’s been traveling over
the world
For two thousand years and a
day.
Haven’t you found his spinning
tops,
His dolls and his round red
drums?
Then certain it is that once a
year
The King of the Far North
comes!
Never you’ll see his crimson cloak
As red as a candy cane;
Never you’ll hear his reindeer’s
hoofs
Rattle the window pane.
But when did you see the Man in
the Moon,
Or fairies or goblins or elves?
Y'et you believe when you read of
them
In books on your nursery shelves.
The only things that are real and
true
Are fantasy, faith and romance
And the magic ring by the wish
ing tree
Where the feet of pixies dance.
Always there’s been a Santa
Claus
Since that day in an Eastern land
When the angels sang to a new
born babe—
Child, do you understand?
—Helen Welshimer.
the University of British Columbia
as stated by the student' paper:
‘ ‘ A comfortable body of nonde
script .spineless morons.”
That, we would say, is editorializ
ing.
Columnist suggestion: (not ours!)
Why not let the Rice Owls and the
Temple Owls play it out for the
Ilootball championship?
Students of national defense will
be interested in the statement by
Colonel C. A. Chapman, head of the
coast artillery unit of the University
of Illinois E. O. T. C.
He declares it is probably much
more frightening to think of an air
raid than to experience one.
The armed aerial forces of the
whole world are not big enough to
raze either New York or Chicago,
he said in an interview. He believes
anti-aircraft gunnery would destroy
a bombing flight before it could
ever get into action. To escape be
ing hit, the Colonel maintains, a
bomber would have to fly at a height
where his chances of accurate bomb
ing are about 1,000 to one.
Student pacifists who seek low
ered military expenses should be even
more fortified to learn that in the
opinion of many experts no nation
nor any combination of nations could
ever effectively invade this country
—- with one excepting.
That exception is a union of Eng
land and Japan against America.
And that, of course, is about as like
ly as a brotherly game of chess be
tween Josef Stalin and Morgan.
Somebody’s definition: “An alum
nus is a graduate who knows pre
cisely how the football team should
be run.”
Before closing, let us make note
of the fact that the sports editor of
the University of Minnesoat Daily
jricked his All Big Ten Team the
other day and eleven out of eleven
were Minnesota players. That’s
loyalty!
