SUNDAY MOVIES
At the present timc there iv a bill before the
State Legislature which, if passed, and it appears
that it will be, would provide for the legalization of
Sunday moving pictures in this State with each lo
cality having the right of local option.
Should this bill pass the legislative bodies suc
cessfully, whether it will be put into effect here de
pends upon the townspeople, for the students have
no vets in such platters. Their only means of ex-
pressing what they desire in affairs of the borough
must be done through the student representative on
the town cotmcil, and in this particular case the stu
dent representative could do little, since the council
cannot control the vote of the townspeople.
Undoubtedly, if this bill passes, there will be a
large number of students here" who will feel that
such entertainment is highly justifiable and who will
ask that the townspeople vote favorably on the mat
ter. There may be another group who feel that Sun
day movies will seriously damage the morals of the
student body and who will ask for a negative vote on .
the proposal.
The COLLEGIAN, at the present time,. does not wish
to take a definite stand on this question. It prefers to,
act rather as a sounding board for :student opinion on
the matter and will welcome nny communications deal
ing with this subject.
FREQUENTLY COMPLAINTS ARE heard from
students who claim that they cannot obtain medical
service quickly or conveniently from the local physi
cians. •These complainers' should remember that the
College provides a dispensary for the medical treat
ment of students. And then, too, perhaps if the stu
dents, who receive medical attention from the local
doctors, would pay their bills, the physicians might be
willing to respond to student cases.
HERR HITLER'S RECENT announcement that
his re-armament plans are all part of a big effort to
insure peace for the world and that he wants to "ha
manizd" war by prohibiting the use of poisonous gas,
liquid fire, and explosives are the crudest bits of mili
taristic propaganda we have ever read. The worst
factor is that a great mass of un-thinking people really
do consider it.
=MI
Okay, Adolph! Now when we yell "boom," you fall
AFTER SEEING THE R.O.T.C. spring gradua
tion and lawn festivities Monday afternoon, we feel•
pretty sad about the whole thing. Entire regiments
were completely demoralized by the laughter, cheers,
and loud huzzahs of the by-standers, who were un
doubtedly "un-American agents disguised both as stu
dents and professors."
Mr. Arthur Brishane, another editorial writer,
who is pretty sad, too, would probably write it up this
way: First of all, he would imagine that war has been
humanized a la Hitler; of course, the war would be
between United States and Japan (It could be some
other countries, but these are the only two Mr. Bris
bane uses in his battles.); then he'd picture thousands
of Japanese completely demoralizing "Our Boys" as
they bravely defend Wall street by laughing at them.
It's something to think about.
JUSTICE
The Supreme Court has just'refused to reverse the
barbarous sentence of the Georgia courts which would
force Angelo Herndon, a twenty-year-old negro, to
spend twenty years on a chain-gang.
How can a civilized country, such as this one claims
to be, permit such inhuman punishment? By this rul
ing the United States stands 'self-exposed as the cham
pion of lynching, the chain-gang, and the whole drive
against the negro people.
Most students at this institution are about twenty
years old. Do any of them have a strong enough im
agination to picture living another span of life as long
as that through which they have just passed in a chain
gang breaking rock under the sadistic and brutal treat
ment of a chain-gang warden?

Street Scene:
The corner at Fairmount and Locust Lane is
usually a quiet spot. Monday night is usually a
serene night, as well, Last Monday the Beta Sigs and
the Alpha Chi Rho's were quietly sunning them:
selves on their respective porches when a big truck
rumbled by and swung around the corner. Several
boxes of candy and unmentionables slid out the back.
The Beta Sigs saw them first and made a dash for
the prize, but their neighbors were not far behind.
A miniature war followed, with the Prexy Morty
Kagen's army gaining the upper hand. But the AXP's
never go down fighting; no sirree! Several of the
men slipped out of the melee and grabbed their gar
bage can, brought it into the middle of the fray, and
slung the contents over the enemy. They retaliated
with their slop and a few milk bottles. For fifteen
minutes the sky was blotted and traffic held up.
But all's quiet again. A treaty has been signed.

job and spent it to take lessons at the
Art Students League. He ]earned to
be a satisfactory illustrator and early
on his career he <lid cowboy pictures
for a western "pulp." But all the time
he was using his 'new knowledge of
form and movement to perfect his
own style.
When his drawings began to ap
pear in the magazines, editors and
the public realized that a new form
of humor had made its appearance.
His work has all the simpleness of
simplicity itself. That is why many
imitators have been unable to ap
proach it: While his humor is based
on the ancient art of comic panto
mime, the special quality "of hilarious
nonsense is all his own.
