FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1932 WANTED: WILLING BRAWN An urgent invitation to all men on the campus .who are football-minded to join competition in the sport has been made by the coach. It is obvious that the College will not boast good football teams unless the list of candidates for places on the teams is long and strong. It is also slain that those who are greatly concerned with the prowess of 'the teams should bend every effort to aid the coaching staff by seeing that there is a sound out for the sport numbering many times the eleven men necessary to compose a team. , More important, however, than the excellence of the team is the consideration of whether or not there arc college men who arc being made a sacrifice to .the demands of the football public. If a man wants to ,play football, believes that competition' in the sport is con tributing materially to his advance, and that football glory is worthy of being a major aim in college life, then by all means he should be in a uniform on the playing fields. And if there are any such who are not already out for the team, it is only fair to the College and to their better selves that they go out for football. But if, on the other hand, time arc men either now on the fields or being pressed to go out merely because their physical makeup is suitable to the purposes of football strategy though they revolt mentally at the idea, then something is being lost in the process that cannot be repaid by any amount of winning teams. Besides doing an injustice to themselves, such•men am not good football players. They are unwilling brawn and the coach needs willing brawn. A thorough weighing of the values of the game.of football to each individual should be required of each candidate before he be allowed on th,.. fields. No man should be allowed to harm both himself and the game by a hasty and• pressed decision. Although some may have criticized the taste of the Old Main BeMin printing certain parts .of its material, it is the consensus of opinion that there is nothing actually offensive in the contents. Its .appearance in a newly designed cover and with definite 'publication dates marks a new step in the upward progress and stabilization of a magazine which was once marked by a will-o-the-wisn character. Its contents represent the outstanding student writing work on the campus and are of a quality to merit campus -wide reading. . THE WEEK-END EVIL Half the fun is gone now that Freshman Week is over. Rushing remains as the sole diversion for mem bers of the entering class and soon it, too, will have passed. And nobody will be sorry. Then the faculty will have an opportunity to get in a few good licks at educating. Work will grip the freshman class if its members are at all responsive to an atmosphere of schol- arship or it will gripe them if they arc not responsive Every year along about the third or fourth week of school professors who instruct freshmen get the first of a large number of requests from th - 3ir new students. It always seems that if Professor So-and-so would excuse student A from his Saturday morning class, Student A could garner a ride home. Certainly a Professor wouldn't stand between a student and his home. The fact of the matter is that many freshmen be come home-sick. They who were only too eager to leave home and to launch themselves on their own! They who boasted that College was for them rebirth into a new land of freedom! Idle boasters, they who would then return week-end after week-end to their natal stamping grounds. When trips home become a weekly habit they be come an evil. Students who indulge in this practice lose a valuable part of the training for which they came to College—to become capable of independent living and action. Their studies also suffer. It is a .nuisance for professors and certainly impedes.class-room work. Such requests should not be granted. Stud2nts should not, in the'first place, make re quests of this nature. Of course, it is well that they think of the folks at home and not seek to separate all the 'ties with me fell swoop• Their footsteps, unlike their thoughts and letters, howe ,, er, shoidd not wander too frequently homeward if they are ever to assume po sitions of independent action and to gain something from their shortened exposure to education. ' CAMPUSEER OE= And NOW will you believe that Joe Maimed doesn't write this or nny other colyum in this •paper. P. S. Neither does Mongoose lachman. Epitaph "If 'funny column' lists familiar faces here and not here—note that 'Willie' Stemple will (voluntarily) not return this year. (Signed) A. R. Warnock." The above little message came to the office in official •envelope, inscribed, most appropriately, upon the reverse of a Dean's excuse blank. It needs no em bellishment, except we might add that Willie's Sace was more than familiar to our complimentary cor respondent. We may find some .use for the ,excuse blank, too I== "Be Specific." That should have been included among the first of the Scout Laws, as witness the. following. The Sigma Nubse have a rushing chart, which is a universal ailment about this time of the year, and somebody wrote after the name of one fresh man the rather ambiguous word "yell:" Several of the 'raters proceeded to entertain the .rushee .during the evening in a very loud tone of voice, presuming that the cryptic message implied deafness upon the part of the unfortunate lad. Well, it turned out that the land lady at his boarding house was opposed to fraternity men, and even the boys from South of Rec Ilan she included in this category. The "yell" meant that it was advisable to stand outside and hail the freshman from the sidewalk rather than risk being ejected upon one's auditory organ. Advice to the Thought,Lorn or Graduate? If your life with parties you punctuate, htisten to recapitulate, You're very likely to flunctuate, Or, at least, be forced to quituate.
