If we are to judge by the addresses foisted upon us >car after year, Memorial Da> has become an occasion on winch, the dead being returned to their neglect with a brief prayer, we be come the subjects of propaganda which looks not toward reverence nor toward any memorial, but toward reasons why war should oi should not bo, and toward attacks, accusations and recnminations of organizations against oigamzations Unfoitunately, when propaganda is unleashed, it cannot remain long within the range of judgment. To call war good because warlike nations have grown stiong is as bad as to call peace good at the saciificc cl country and home without defense. Both arguments have been used, with variations, by those who employ piopaganda. An attempt to justify war, no matter on what occa sion, on the grounds that no country can endure with cut war, is out-dated. True, we can point'to countries m the past that ha\e fallen in battle Yet if the world is to continue to worship the sword for the gam that its use brings, no internationalism can be possible at any future time An attempt to outlaw wai, hastily and without sartitv, on the grounds that peace is an ideal to be paid for at the cost of submission to every aggressor, is equally absurd. We find militarists who link all churches with com munism and an implied devil, who sec the schools "a suongholo of atheistic communism,” calculated to bring about “ the bloody tononsm of Godless communism as in Russia,” failing to distinguish between churches and church organizations and individual churchmen, be tween all schools and a few. We find those who can <■(•(! no wrong in an enforced military drill, who see no icason whv imhtaiy training, whether it is taught well oi ill, should not be compulsory. There is another side, the side that calls for abolition of all armed strength, that would gladly sec its nation unprotected at the meicy of a world which, rirfpite theories and ideals, is still distinctly eager to take advantage of those who have no defense. Until these groups can combine the practical and the theoretical, there will exist os great a clash of opinion as that which existed during any war. Neither con be called right. Both declaim and argue, accuse and denounce, call upon very quotations, and .whenever the ..opportunity comes. Internationalism, winch ‘must "rest ,*as- the foundation of a desunble peace, cannot come from the efforts of either of these groups. In a thousand million graves, a thousand million rien—young men who died to scive the ends of others— ho buued and forgotten while speakeis argue with more joung men, that they, too, may serve the purposes of a ii.inorit) Out of the mass of Penn State honorary fraternities and societies, at least one should be found that could actually he termed the “piesorver of College tradi t ons ” For this is the year, it seems, when traditions have been cast aside or completely ignored. Ivy Day is the most recent custom over which the death knell ha> been sounded. What next? A SEVEN HOUR DAY For the first tunc since the 7-hour class day was suggested some months ago by Dneetor of Athletics Hugo Bezdek, a plan has been woiked out by the sched uling officer whcicby its adoption next year is highly pi obable Since the plan seems feasible to the extent that only seventeen percent of the College students would find .i impossible to eliminate the 4 o'clock class, there seems to be no plausible reason why the two-hour recreation sjstem could not be adopted here m the fall. There is nr, doubt that student sentiment is strongly in favor cf such a plan Both varsity teams and intramural sports will re ceive untold benefit if the pcnod from four to six o’clock eveiy afternoon is set aside as a definite recreation period. Dividends in the foim of more zest for study resulting from better physical condition yroiild more than compensate for the loss of an hour in the day’s scholastic schedule. CAMPUSEER RY HIMSELF The prize this year for College Cut-up goes to Catheuno Longlcy, who made the most of an oppor tunity and hnd a lot of fun without breaking any thing One day when Mi. Stevens couldn’t get mound to a History section he asked Cathoi me to put the assign ment on the board and dismiss the class “Well, well, well 1 ” thought Catheiine, for she is a gnl with ideas of hci own, and here was a grand occasion. So she walked into class and took charge of things in the following gay manner First she told the boys nnd gnk that Mr Stevens was sorrv but he couldn't lie there, and she announced the assignment, just as she was supposed to And then she pioduped r neat set of questions and forthwith gave the class mates a quizz Some fun, eh’ Well, aftei that «he collected the papers and dismissed the class Mi Stevens hasn’t heaid about it, and the class novel fuspected that a pietty neat hoax had been woiked That was very good, Catheiine Congiatulations, and may you get all three’s in all vour couiscs, espec ially Histoij. We thought we were all through lepmting those people who have so many dates, but heie vve aic with the result*, of an investigation into the case of Jo Laßarrc & Duke Millet, Inc. Duke claims that ho positively has licked everybody on the campus and established a new rccoid. Two dates a day and three on Sunday for three >cais. Our loommnto has gone home with the slide rule and we’ie piactically helpless without him, but vve figuie that the total is around l-PPUA We sup posed that there were sixteen weeks in a semcstei, time two semesters, times three yenis, times two dates a dnj foi six days of the week Then we added thiee dates on Sunday, times sixteen weeks, times two semesters, times three years, and the grand total was 1440 dates. But last Satui day Duke £, Jo loaded a big maiket basket with food and started to go on a picnic Only it rained before they got veiv far, and thej had to come back So we counted that half a date, which brings the total to II.VHi, Before wo go home we’ve got to commend Sphinx Society for stiiving toward Those Ideals foi Which the Society Stands Just like all good honorory organizations, the Sphinxes have Purposes, Endcavois, and Such. One of those Pui poses is to promote good feeling between fiatcrnity and non-fiatermty men; and when the new members paid thou fifteen bucks pei each they were told how the Sphinx- is the Most Secietive of Secret Societies, and how they were go ing to Stuve this yoai to Attain Those Worthy Ends Well, since that time nobody has heaid about the Sphinx Society, not even the members They haven’t had a meeting; m fact, they haven't yet elected figure-heads for next year. That’s our idea of Wmk mg Secretly, and huuah for the Sphinx Society. About Town and Campus: After foui years of R. 0. T. C Cy Sobler is “qualified to soive as a pnvatc in the Organized Reserves” . . . Julie Epstein earnestly searching foi the ownei of a buck he found in the Schnappsnmmet . . .

Well, so long, everybody, and Happy Fouith of July Around the.Cdmer ‘THEY SUALL NOT CRASH’ No longer may a Biothcr attend his own fra ternity dance on this campus with the fear of having an elbow pushed into his ribs when its owner makes a dash around the oichestrn, and no longer may he scaich in vain among the dancers for a fajmhar face, for, according to the action of the Intorfiatermty council, the “crashing” of dances is passe The council has made it mandatoiy for frater nities to rcpoit to the dean of men the names of uninvited “guests" at thou social functions Co operating with the dean of men in stamping nut this nuisance, the council fuither will recommend that upon their first offense dance “ciashers” he deprived of their social privileges. In ordei to make this rule practical, the council adopted a motion lequmng each fraternity to issue dooi cards to all guests for each dance held at its chnptoi house. Under the new liilmg, the list of guests for a fraternity dance must be appiovcd by the president nnd the social chairman of each house, and then for warded to the president of the Interfratcrnity council on or before the night of the affair. Any fiatermtv which allows a "crasher” to remain at the dance without reporting it to the dean of men will be liable to the loss of its social privileges. The Interfiaternity council is to he commended upon inaugurating a lule which is aimed at the pestiferous practice of dance “crashing.” The rule, however, is no stionger than the machinery set up to enforce it, and its effectiveness will depend upon the co-operation of the fraternities with the Interfra ternity council and the University administrative authorities in lidding the campus of an obnoxious practice. —lndiana Daily Student SENIORS TO BEGIN GRADUATION WEEK (Continued fiom foet page) Chapman, Slipper Ctrl.
