Headline Seekers
If some stray movie starlet had strolled into
the All-College cabinet meeting at about 10 o'-
clock Tuesday night, she would have thought
she was back home at Hollywood and Vine on
a scene replete with gag lines, headline-seekers
and publicity agents.
INSTIGATED by the All-College president,
various cabinet members at that point were
raising a chant that sounded pretty much like,
"We want a headline. We want a headline. Fight,
team, fight." •
The occasion was a discussion en the size
of headlines and the amount of space given
to what the All-College president and others
called "publicity for the Campus chest."
Some cabinet members felt that the Campus
chest drive had not been given sufficient "pub
licity" in Collegian. To be frank, in an error of
news judgment, one story regarding the cam
paign had been poorly handled as to space and .
location, and this was readily admitted:
THE WHOLE orgy ended up with cabinet
moving to endorse the Campus chest program
in the hopes that it would make headlines. Had
they not been thinking of the "publicity" value,
'they probably never would have taken the ac
tion. In fact, considering that cabinet itself set
up the Campus chest, one would presume they
already had endorsed it.
Not that we object to • cabinet's endorsing
the campaign. What we do object to was the
quite obvious attempt to dictate news evalua
tion to Collegian. The fact that it was predi
cated upon ONE story which did not receive
the space some people thought it deserved
makes the attempt even more obnoxious.
It might be well to point out to cabinet that,
before yesterday, a total of six stories on Cam- .
pus chest had appeared in Collegian. That's con
siderably more space than a good many other
items. of news interest have received. Another
story and an editorial on the subject were writ
ten Tuesday before the cabinet meeting.
WE'LL LEAVE IT up to our readers them
selves to judge whether that is a fair amount
of space, considering that the campaign does
not start until the end of this week and that
Collegian always has been pressed for space.
We'll leave it up to our readers to judge whe
ther cabinet's frantic search for headlines was
justified.

Nine In One
For a chance to contribute and help nine wor
thy charities in one simple action, you can't
beat the Campus chest.
CONVENIENCE is the primary function of
the chest program. The purpose of concentrat
ing all of these drives into one grand campaign
is principally to eliminate year-round heckling
of students by individual charity solicitors.
For this reason it is important that students
realize Campus chest is not just another drive.
but a chance to do all the charity-giving for
these nine organizations now for the remain
der of the school year 1950.51.
Giving once for all is an excellent method es
pecially in those instances where you wouldn't
mind contributing, but don't because of the ob
noxious tactics of many solicitors.
DONATING PROCEDURES are simple.
Eighth-semester seniors are the only student',
who need to give cash right now. All others
simply designate an increase in fees for next
semester, or, in the case of veterans, a deduction
from book receipt checks. Solicitors will ,ask for
$2 from each student, but any amount may be
designated.
Unfortunately there are also disadvantages
to the chest setup this year. One of them is
that the student may not designate how much
of his contribution is to be given to each of
the organizations. Allotments are on a pro
rated basis, established last spring by the Col
lege committee of the National Student asso
ciation and approved by All-College cabinet,
But despite this disadvantage, we think the
one-packaged idea of donations is well worth
the student's consideration, if only from the
point of view of helping to budget his finances
in advance.
