I EXCHANGE Some men may smile in the face of death, While others may only frown. But the man worthwhile is the man who can smile — When his garter is coming down! Have you heard about the new hospital in Greece for small poxf Oh, so the Greeks have a word for it! Memory: What we forget with. Can a near-sighted girl have a faraway look in her eyest Dear Teacher:— Please excuse John’s absence. He suffers with his head. He’s had it off and on ever since he was born. YOU TOO? It was around 7:00 that I lay sprawled on the grass between Clewell and Main Hall, dreaming of “Yon distant star,” when footsteps disturbed my reverie. Snatching my “dream me” mack from skimming gloriously in and about clouds, I greeted the approaching book-laden girl — only to be ignored as if I were the lowest of ignoble worms. Not being properly “squelched” however, I spoke more warmly to the student who trudged behind the first; this time I was rewarded mo mentarily with a preoccupied stare. As a continuous line of “books with girls” dragged their feet reluctantly in the direction of Main Hall, mak ing no sign of recognition, I began to wonder if perhaps I wasn’t a worm after all. Knally making one last brave effort to determine if I had been living under false pretenses all these years, I rallied my courage and accosted a particularly weary- looking “skirt,” demanding to know where everyone was going. As she glared at me a moment with startled eyes, I pepared to become re-adjusted to the role of a worm. QUESTIONNAIRE SENT TO MEN’S COLLEGES BRINGS UNUSUAL RESULTS A questionnaire was recently sent to boys, representative of Princeton, Yale, Harvard, Williams, and Dart mouth, asking them questions con cerning the “better sex.” Their answers were so revealing that we have selected a few of them for your approval. Q: Please let loose on the sub ject of lipstick . . . A: All agree that lipsticks are necessary. Unanimous dislike of gooey lipsticks that come off . . . “try it on a white tie sometime.” Ditto dislike of the painted look. J: Pencil the eyebrows! A: Nothing doing. However, it’s the thinness that’s the catch. Prac tically all recognize the need for “grooming” — and even weeding “if some poor girl is blest with a set of eyebrows somewhere between those of the late Rudyard Kipling and a mountian goat.” Q: Perfumes (floral odors, exotic types, or none at all) ? A: “W and P like flower per fumes, and the latter very little of that.” D says that “a man never notices perfume until it is put on in such large quantities as to be dis tasteful.” On the other hand H is ‘ ‘ a sucker for all perfume, and plenty of it.” Q; Do you object if a girl re vamps her make-up in public t A: H and P don’t object when the revamping is done with “tem perance,” but the latter threatens to shave in public if he has to watch the object of his admiration contort ing her mouth as though there were a slice of lemon in it.” W and Y point out that most places have non public facilities fo the revamping job. D is sour and savage against any make-up in public. Q: Please suggest do's and don’ts for dancing. A: Y, “Don’t drape yourself around your partner’s neck; do stand up straight; don’t hold your partner at arm’s length.” W, as above, with “don’t chatter.” added. H, Ditto, also “don’t try to lead.” P, “If short try to get around the floor without doing a clinging vine act. Never let dancing be a living and poignant example of the white man’s burden. ’ ’ Q: If the girl is really attractive do you care is she is perpetually late? A: (Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth, Princeton, Williams): “Yes.” Q: Does red nail polish bother you or does it stamp a girl as “ smart t” A: It bothers Y, D, and P. W says; “For the touch of color, but not to be overdone.” Q: False eyelashes! A: Unanimous thumbs down. Q: Painted toenails! A: Ditto. P observes that “they may prove of interest to some future anthropologist who wishes to com pare the habits of decoration of ring-in-the-nose aborigines with 20ith century American women.” Q: Bleached hair. A: W, H. and D, “No.” Y and P don’t like it either, but might possibly excuse (“reluctantly”) a little bleaching. Q: Do you or do you not like the following fashions: Mad, silly hats! A: “No”—W, H, Y, P. D does. Q: Flowers or other dingbats in the hair for evening! A: W, D, Y, “No.” P and H both like one small flower — no dingbats. Q: The stockingless vogue! A: P, D. and Y, “No.” W a qualified “Yes.” H is indifferent. Q: Current beauty fashion (1. e., accent on eyes — eye shadow, etc.— and on mouth)! A: Apparently the eye shadow scared our gentleman. Y observes that “The whole arrangement sounds like a Duse who has forgotten to take off her make-up.” The low down, we believe, is that so long as you look “natural” the means to the end won’t be questioned. Q: Do you like a girl who will enter into sports with you! A: Unanimous “ Yes. ” Q: Have you thoughts on the girl who knows when to go home, or can take it and stay up forever! ■A-i H, “May the latter be cursed with insomnia.” D, “Who wants to COLLEGIATE REVIEW (By Associated Collegiate Press) Attempt at maintenance of a 70-30 ratio between fraternity and non- fraternity men is being made at Wil liams College. Women are more severe in their judgment of character than men, psychologists believe. A ticket headed by U. S. Senator Lester Dickinson and Representative James W. Wadsworth was named at a New York student G. O. P. con vention. Ad in The Minnesota Daily: “WANTED 3 men, 2 who like onions, 1 without.” Ad in The Daily Princetonian: “WILL THE GENTLEMAN who wrapped his girl in one of the Col onial Club curtains please return it!” Stamp-collecting is passe, dull, uninteresting, according to CCNY students, who prefer dancing and basketball as hobbies. A tree-ring calendar covering eigh teen centuries has been discovered in Northern Arizona. Support of 2,250,000 young men and women is claimed for the “American Youth Act.” Harvard has received Rockefeller Foundation grants totalling $37,881 for socio-economic research. ‘Student Americaneers” at Ohio State have attacked the university as ‘ ‘ communistic. ’ ’ Prof. R. W. Wood of Johns Hap- kins has made a “ specroscope ” ruled with 30,000 individual lines to the inch. Cure of the “jitters,” national affliction, is held to be the first goal of physical education.

Miss Schwarze, with or chestral accompaniment on the organ by Dean Vardell. be the first to go home!” P, “Ex cept for the fact that she will have more wrinkles than Ghandi when she’s thirty-five or so, the lady who can take it is a decided asset.” W, “Would vary according to the eve ning and the girl.” Q: What are the first three things you notice about a girl! A: First, “Her face”—P. H. and W. Y. “Degree of physical perfec tion.” Second, “Figure,” H, D, W, and P. “Clothes”—Y. Third, “Gen eral attitude as reflected in her man ner and conversation” — H. W, “Complexion, hair and figure.” T. ‘ ‘ Poise and savior faire. ” P, “ Such phenomena as red nails, weird hats, affected speech, glimmerings of in telligence ...” —Excerpt from Mademoiselle.

Chicago, 111.—(ACP)—An interna tional language for radio use is a pressing need, says E. H. Scott, head of the Scott Radio Laboratories here, and he proposes to do something about it. Believing that little can be done to bring world amity through the in ternationalism of the radio as long as a confusion of tongues prevails, Scott proposes the use of Ido, Esper anto, modernized Latin, or basic English as a medium, “International hatreds and jeal ousies will never be solved through Geneva confeences alone,” he de clares. “Th solution to wide-spread good-will among nations can best be brought about by an intelligently leavened world language.” The depression is held responsible for growing interest in home eco nomics being shown by boys. Johns Hapkins is seeking a fund of $600,000 to balance its budget. Ruth Norman is going to Washing ton to visit her sister and on up to Boston. Then she said in a strained voice, “Why, don’t you know! Exams be gin tomorrow. SAICA’S SCCAIP MEM0B7 • My mind lets go a thousand things, Like dates of wars and deaths of kings, -i^d yet recall the very hour "Twas noon by yonder village tower, And on the last blue noon in May The wind came briskly up this way, Crisping the brook beside the road; Then pausing here, set down its load Of pine-scents, and shook listlessly Two petals from that wild rose tree. —Thomas Bailey AJdrieh.
