A COURSE IN SCOUTCRAFT
Many ex-Boy Scout leaders now on the campus
will be interested to know that Columbia university
has recently inaugurated a course in scoutcraft, co-
operating with the national Boy Scouts organiza-
tion. The purpose of the classes is to teach all the
principles of scouting in an interesting way, by
meetings similar to the regular gatherings of scout
troops and by hikes to camps in the neighborhood. In -
addition to the considerable number of students who
take the course to prepare themselves to lead scout
troops a sideline in their home towns after gradua-
tion, there are many who go in for the out-of-doors
training and exercise purely as a recreation.
Probably no organization reaches the heart of the
American boy quite so influentially as the great Boy
Scout movement. Its excellent principles and ideals
of courage and chivalry and honesty are put across
in a way boys like. Because of the great power
which they possess in training young America, the
scout leaders who guide the troops and patrols
should be picked only from men of the highest cal-
ibre, who understand boys, know woodsmanship,
and can stand as the right sort of examples to the
youngsters who hold them, as heroes. College men,
with a thorough scout training, should be very well
fitted for this kind of leadership. If such a course
were established at Michigan, there can be no doubt
of its immediate popularity.
The University, by including scoutcraft in its
urriculum, would do much more than provide ex-
ercise, recreation, and an understanding of the se-
crets of the great outdoors. It would be doing an
extension work of immeasurable influence among
the boys with whom its scout students would come
in contact wherever they might make their homes
throughout the country, and many of those boys
would groty up with the hope of following their
leaders' footsteps to Michigan.
DEPENDING ON A HUNCH
A habit of the inveterate gambler is to depend on
a "hunch." He will play a close game for a while
and then suddenly stake a large amount of money
on one play simply because he has a hunch that he
will win.
Sometimes hunches do win-but not always. Stu--
dents often try the gambler's trick by neglecting
thei work because they have a hunch they will not
be called upon to recite. Many a lesson has gone
unprepared with impunity because these hunches
have worked. But, after all, they have only worked
to a certain extent. While the student has escaped
a low mark for that particular class period, he has,
nevertheless, left a gap in his knowledge of the
course which is not apt to be repaired after the rec-
itation.
Hunches do not pay in the long run. They are
misleading and each success encourages further de-
pendence upon them until a single failure may
bring disaster. Education is too valuable an item
to leave to the mercy of hunches. The best policy
is to "play safe" in school and leave the hunch to
the gaming board.

"Do you think students should be
allowed to use the University tennis
courts on Sundays"
Wilfred R. Borinstein, '20, Varsity
tennis man: "I believe that there are
no good reasons why they shouldn't
be allowed to do so. It's pretty dead
around here on Sundays. Then in
large cities all tennis clubs allow
members to use the courts sundays
with 'apparent success. I think it
would be a very good thing if it were
allowed at Michigan."
Lee R. Boyd, '22, member of the
art staff 'of the Gargoyle: "I don't
believe students should play tennis
Sundays for the day is generally re-
spected for church services. There
are six other days of the week which
afford ample time in which to play."
Lawrence C. Jerome, '22, member
last year's All-Fresh tennis team:
"Yes, I think students should be al-
lowed to play Sunday mornings. As
far as I can see, they should be sat-
isfied to use the courts this half of
the day and save the afternoons for
rest."
Frank L. Young, '22: "Students
should, and most of them do, work
hard all week and it is only right that
they should be allowed the use of the
courts on their one free day. I would
say to open the courts, let those play
who desire, and those who do not de-
sire to play can do as they like. In
this way everyone will be satisfied and
no one injured."
Make Changes in Fishing Laws
Two important amendments have
been added to the angler's license law
and are now in effect. All non-resi-
dents above the age of 21, including
women, must have a license to fish in
Michigan waters. The fee for the gen-
eral or trout license has been reduced
from $5 to $3.
