EVERY DAY IS MOTHERS' DAY
EACH YEAR people all'over the country pay tribute
to the persons who brought them into the world.
They hcnor their mothers. This is called Mothers' Day.
Why this particular day should be called Mothers'
Day is pretty hard to understand. Every day is Moth
ers', Day, just the same as every day is Fathers' Day.
, But the particular day, when everyone treats his moth
er nicely is a good idea, and has possibilities for use in
the other 364 days in the year.
In the 'stress of everyday human life and the neces
sity of the propagation of the race, the sacrifices that
go'od mothers make are usually overlooked for 364 days
in the year. It is• for this reason that Mothers' Day
shouldn't be , anything particularly startling. It is the
Other days in the year that are the ones to, consider.
:Why humans have to set aside one particular day to
honer their mothers is a severe indictment of the race
itself. Why can't they honor them every day?
Neyertheless, mothers will appreciate the recognition
they get Sunday. This one thiy will mean a lot to them.
They won't ask for any more than this one day, but
there is no reason why they shmildn't get it.
' Civilization would make remarkable strides if moth
ers' were treated with 'consideration every day in the
fear. Too often they aren't. Too often they are for
gotten from one Mothers' Day to the next.
Mike Sunday a great day. How about making Mon-
day just like it?
DOUBLE-PLAY BALL
STUDENT BOARD'S action in drastically cutting
the comp list for big dances is commendable and
follows the new trend in campus politics that has been
Pistei•ed this yelir
The'only objection is that the boys had a double-play
ball hittbieir way and they only made a force out at
aerindi jitst; 4odd.ction.

The idea is, of course, not tremendously popular with
those who lose tickets by it. Their argtiment is this:
•• The managers have found that it is becoming increas
ingly hard to get candidates out for their posts. The
only incentive that they had was .comps in their senior
year if they made out. They contend that with no com
pensation in sight it will become impossible to get men
out for the various managerships. They say that be
coming a manager requires a lot of work. They claim
they are doing a lot of work for the College for noth
ing, and that making out costs them a lot of money in
the end.
Student Board could have been more drastic and re
duced the comp list further, and at the same time sug
gested that managers receive monetary rewards for
their work in managing their respective teams. This
would have completed the double play.
This would quiet objections em the part of the man
agers and would be a direct payment for services. ren
dered. This would make a managefe job mean just
that. It would mean that the manager would he tha
manager of his sport, that there would' be an incentive
for trying to be one.
If no one were to come out for managorships, it would
mean that the
,College would have to spend a lot of
money to get the work done by someone else. It would
be a good investment for the College.
Student Board's action Was good; it started some
thing toward the way things ought to be. It solved one
problem and created another. But the one it created is
leiser than the .one it solved. It is in this way that ac
complishments are made. •
A system w ere.y bus rewards are made on a basis
of money for work is tbe direct way to do it.
Flow about the throw over to first?
OLD MANIA
There's a certain professor of English composition
who is writing a little article for the Alumni News
on mis-spelling habits. It may have been a coinci
dence, but on the page-proofs of the new College cata
logue, read by the department, the English comp. sec
tion used the following beauty—persuation. The prof;
was, of course, Mahatma Galbraith.
Little Mal Hobart has always resented being called
a sweet little child and other such niceties. After at
tending a faculty affair with Ted McCune, ex-Lion
soccer and tennis captain, someone remarked, "What
was that sweet little thing doing with such a villain?"
That burned Hal up, because she wants to be known
as sophistication personified. She indirectly wanted
this column to say something nasty about her so that
she won't lie thought of as sweet any more.
Just what effect the love of a good woman has on a
real he-man has been shod•n right here over the past
few years. Early in his career, LeVan Linton was
tin athlete, a basketball player, and a pretty good gent.
Alice Nixon came along. Van gave up athletics, and
many, many other things.
And then we have another young lad who is out to
do himself up right. 'Tommy Hamilton is waged in a
three-cornered battle for Betty Warfel with Jack
Light and Tommy Gullet. Light's a good wrestler.

'Herbert 11. Callan '39
A few of the boys hiave been well:on their way to
ward getting the distinctive title of Most Disgusting
Drunk of the Week. They have exceeded the rules
in that they are stretching the time limit. One of
their cutest tricks is to make faces at people, par
ticularly at Mac hall. One of them dated Millie Rob
bins and the other went along. One is Charlie Goit.
the other Gus Vogt.
The diner's Sally Wolf is involved in scandal again.
When Captain William V. Dennis, of the Campus Pa
trol, entered her place of employment the ether night,
she greeted him in her low, soothing voice with "Hi,
sweetie-pie."
The impossible almost happened last week when no-•
body laughed at Sam Wyand's latest joke . . . Kenny
Kagen, perfectly cast as the villain "Snake" in the
Player show "School for Scandal," seems to be meant
for bad-boy parts. He's at it again in the final Player
bit, "Boy Meets girl."
Apologies are due to Tat Humes, who forgets to.
pull down her window shade . . . she was reported
as being engaged to the manager of the local five and
ten . . this was a mistake, for the manager is al
ready married. But she has a big diamond, only
smaller since it's from the assistant manager.
A Liberal Arts student, Fred Stahley, attending the
first Priestley lecture, which them majors had trou
ble understanding, said on leaving, "Well, I recog
nized a mouse on one of the illustrations."
Somebody compared Doc Dietterich, in his long
white coat, with a mechanic in a service station . . .
there may be some connection ... Bernie Neiman, ex
frost politician, attempts to thrill those that don't
know better with 'his glamorous stories of spending
$9O on an import over one week-end . . .
A good-night kiss is all right for co-eds, but no co
ed should perMit her emotions to get beyond control,
or engage in protracted necking. This was decided
on the University of Michigan campus after a squab
ble over necking. A girl there was fined for "holding
a boy's head against her Vehile she stroked his head in
an affectionate manner." The.innOvation of lap-dogs
