All aboiii'cl for the Press Associa
tion! Lust c-all for delegates! Throe
elieors for Duke—we like it more
tliaii ever.
And spoukiiig of imblicatioiis,
that roiiiinds uf of something we
iuivf; been wi.'hiiig to say for ser-
oral wLM'ks, but opportunity failed
ti present itself. It is coucerning
tiio lack of credit accorded those
wbo (h'vuto the majority of their
waking (soiiietiuies sleeping ones,
too) lumr.s to work ou year books,
iiKigazincs and iit-wspapers. Tliere
must have eircuhited a very distort
ed idea conci-rning work ou a pub
lication stall'—it' so, it shouhl be
rorrwted. in the first plaec, it
lacks heaps of being all pleasure
and no work (o be a eonseieutious
worker on any of the statt’s—iu fact,
jiiueh of it is pure drudgery wc are
no more industrious than the aver-
jige person and therefore enjoy hard
work little more, in the second
place, those publications are not our
private property, neither are they
run in our interest. They belong to
Meredith, and are as vital a part of
ihe college as any other organiza
tion on tlte campus.

OPEN FORUM
Wo notice la the Technician an
article entitled “The Fresliman Prob
lem." After reading this article, we
realize that freshmen are a problem
at other places as well as at Meredith.
To quote a little; "Are the freshmen
going to take this campus? The sopho
mores seem to have given up hope of
controlling them.” Here at Meredith
there is the same problem. It would
not 1)0 (lulte as noticeable if the fresh-
paper slidT, to receive no visible, ma-
ti'i-ial reward in the end. No finan
cial cuinpensation is expected; how
ever, a few hours crcdit given to
ward !i degree and a few consider
ations shown, would go far in caus
ing the stiiif.s to feel that they were
I'eceiving the reward which usually
follows faithful service.
This is the attitude Avhich stu
dents of many of the leading col
leges ai’e assuming, and one wbieli
well deserves consideration by stu-
di‘iits niul college authorities.
meu were' respectful to sophomores and
juniors, but it seems that freshmen
have formed a low conception of their
mental superiors when they rush ahead
of seniors without any apology and
are in other ways disrespectful. It
may seem, to them a little thing, but
“great oaks from little acorns grow,"
and if the seniors are no longer ac
corded the respect and honor due them,
one of the “unwritten laws" of fresh
man training has been violated.
, This, of course, does not apply to all
of the freshmen. Some are models
of all that freshmen should be, but
others are not, and It is to the latter
that we refer. ‘‘If the shoe fits you,
wear it.”
(Sau.ui Biuoos ’31)
Dear Sadie;
Time has collapsed or elapsed or
something like that. Anyway I’m
meanln’ to say as what I haven't sent
yon no epistle in a pow’fiil long time,
so I has set myself down and took my
pen in hand so I can commence.
Spring has came! And Sadie, these
people is getting athletic, what ever
that means. Anyhows one day a girl
came up to my suite (sweet—you
know) and ast me to come over to
the courts. She said she’d meet me
there. Wal, I took and put on my
Easter dress ’cause I was all sot to
meet a king and queen or least wise a
jedge. She had told me where it wus,
so I went. Lawzee, Sadie, It want
nothing but a kinda chicken yard with
the wire left off’n two sides. Some
fish nets was strung across it and girls
batted a ball at each other. Just as I
came up one of ’em yelled, “Deuce.” I
was sorta shocked but kept quiet. Then
one yelled "Ready?" 'Totlier she yelled
“Serve.” Who ever heard of anyone
not being ready for 'em to serve?
Nevei- served notliin' far’s I could see.
Then this here girl what ast me to
come say where wus my racket. I
done tole her I don't never make any
racket since I got one of them there
yell downs for making one the other
night. She said she'd lend me hers.
She give me two pieces o’ wood with
string run all between ’em and I walk
ed out on this court. A girl she say.
“Ready?" I says “For what?” She says
'•Are you ready?” I say “Sho!" She
knocked a ball. Didn’t come near mo
so I told her that wus allright to
try again. She just looked at me and
says, “Fifteen, Love.” I says “How
come you calling me love?” "She say,
"Fifteen, Love!” I says, “What do love
mean?” She say, ‘‘Love means noth
ing!” Love means nothing! Sadie,
d' you get that? 1 looks at her then
1 draws myself up very dignified and
I says, “Ijook here, girl I ain’t gonna
play no such ungodly game where peo
ple says Deuce and love means noth
ing!” I left. Do you blame me,
Sadie?
I can't write no more. I’m going to
see some body name Jim. Tell you
’bout that next time.
Yours with best love, and I'm telling
you Sadie it ain't that new kind,
Myra.
