The story is iiom the University of Indiana,
1
and repm ts that the local women's self govern
ment association. unaided by any extm nal influ
ence, styled the gyrations of co-ed cheer-leaders as
"unlady-like", and urged that the practice be dis
continued at that college. If the decision is ap
proved by the women's athletic association—ands
this is expected—the Hoosier cheering sections ,
next year will respond only to male exhortations.
Granted that it is beyond mere man to at
tempt tc contectin e upon the whims and fancies
of the feminine mind 110\1M er, the sex was as

by masculinity, to the sudden decision that these

they seemed Maybe we're wrong!
All this reminds us that, a few months ago,
the Penn State co-eds (than which there aroma'
better ir the land) made public the fact that the
recently-aroused spurt of equality had decided for
them that them cheering sections henceforth
should tune then shouts to the waving arms of
femininity To this day, we have witnessed no
esults, but we take it that intei est in the protect!
ha' not v aned. But before it's too late, we'd like
to get the Indiana story en culated mound the
Mac Hall clinnei tables, to change the subject ,
there from hash to lea] brain food, and to have
the co-eds look the "young gill movement" in the
eye' and try tc see past the spectacles
We all a study in contrasts Here: the en-

Often has it been said that this town relies
or the students for a Lying. That, too, is almost
the truth, it not THE truth. Of couise. the mer
chants—the bakers and candlestick makes s, as
it mei e—are the ones who sell their goods, and
they're to be commended tor selling anything to
students. (Student is the brand of man who tiles
his best to get everything for nothing )
But the borough government is at fault in
not notifying fraternities of ordinances which aia
passed by the Borough Council Fraternities oc
cupy a great deal of property in this tomn, and
there is nc reason for their ignorance of borough
lams. Copies of laws. hung on telegraph poles
and pi lilted in the tom n nem spapei, do NOT reach
student eyes—and that's the reason for a dozen
or sc fraternitypresidents' appearing before the
Burgess to pay four dollars and fifty cents for not
having the freshmen 'tend to the sidewalks.

Chapel is not the place for discipline.
