THEY DARED
TO, THINK
LAST I4AY, the Collegian launched its di we
to u esni pet and to clean up the men's campir+
honorary societies
Among other things, the Collegian challenge I
every single one of them to show Just whst they
aie doing to Justify then existence
Some of them, notably Blue Key and Dimds
are attempting to do this now with a considerable
degree of success Othei s, however, are flying
that they me willing to do something but they
can't find anything to do
If such.is the case—if some of these honm v
..ometies me so barren of any ideas—then the
Collegian insists that they should be liquidate I
without any fuithei trial By their inaction, the!
have proved their incompetence
If such is the case, then what we need lime
aie less honmaiy societies, what we need are
”ocieties composed of student leadm s who ai
not afraid to think and to do something
Foi, the Collegian maintains and always will
maintain, theme is absolutely no excuse foi mental
laxity on the part of alleged student leaders who
iecove keys limn alleged honoi my, societies fin
their alleged sei vice to the student hotly
THAT THIS campus lemains eves leceptive to
new and feasible ideas was demonsttated StlCCeßS
fully Fliday night when Mm tai Board—ti wo
men's honmaly society, by the way—ttansfolmecl
an miginal idea Of'a "Spinsteis' Ship" into novel
reality
- Women escm ted then men to the (lance in fun
provoking pal aphemalia Can lots, spinach, ap
ples—all kept time with the music, as Alm tai
Boa d l t ovided esti timed and sensible vet sum
of the College life which Hollywood has so often
depicted
Lined by the novel proginm, students were only
too willing to contaibute the mimed admission
fee
Thus, with one single program, Mortal Boai I
not oily provided the social escape which a boob
burilined student body must h...ve Intel mittently,
but it raised appioximately T 250, pail of which
will be atilavd to furnith scholai ships rot v
ing students
MEN MAY BOAST of then wonder NI student
goveniment, but when it tomes to, honorary ~ o-()cues
()cues they can do nothing but adinn, that the
women ate a decade ahead of them
While others seek to maintain then existente
through Mannish Reel ecy and Supreme-Cornt ho
liness, 'Volta' Board has had the towage to ovet
thiou wm n-out traditions and become a positive
force in student life
It is because of this that the Collegian today
salutes Moat.) Boat d as the shining example or
what an honorary society can be, an example of
how an honcraiy society can show positively that
it holds student welfare above selfish interest, an
example of what. honoitny societies can do if they
would only dale to think
NOT THE WAY
A PROPOSAL to levy an annual license fe s
of $2 60 upon student vendors who canvass fi a
termty and looming houses now is being consid
ered by Borough Council
Council believes, it is said, that by levying such
a tax it would be able to eliminate the alleged
pi actices of vendors walking into private homes
in the middle of the night, privates homes whet e
no students live
The Collegian doubts that time ale many such
eases In the first place, the Collegian cannot
believe that student vendors would be so foolish
as to waste time every night by going into pri
vate homes whteh do not house students after they
leant cn their fiist night that no students live
there In the second place, The Collegian is wont
to believe that students, after ill, do hold a bight,:
regard for townspeople than they me suspecte l
of holding
Hinvevei, even if the alleged complaints of the
townspeople ale well-founded, it does not seem
logical that the tai would eliminate such abuses
cxcept by fmeing the vendors to forego whatever
chance tliey have of making a small—amount of
money
Cet thinly these vendors, who make perhaps a
cent or two on an article, are no economic royal
ists, and a $2 50 fee would make a big dent in
their profits—a dent which would force most of
them to quit their canvassing.
If this is what the plan is designed to do, then
the Collspian is sure it. would serve its purpose
admirably It. is to be hoped, however, that such
is \ not the purpose.
