These two requirements stood out on an otherwise pleasant schedule like a sore thumb on the hand of a basketball player. Ile whole- heartedly and sincerely hated gym because of the tiresomeness of going' through floor work, in which he was about as much interested as he was in the outcome of a checker battle be- tween two natives in the general store back home. iBu'. now there is a different story to tell.

RonaesserPirc As higher education continues to evolve, the tendency will undoubtedly, be to place more emphasis on the graduate school. In proportion to the increase in the enrollment of our American universities they seem de$- tined to become mediums of common education rather than higher educa- tion. Consequently, more and more students who are seeking specializa- tion or who wan; intensified training turn, towards the graduate school as a means. of fulfiling their noeds .

The success of democracy, depends to a certain extent upon the fulfill- ment of this tidea.

This truism sums up a good deal of the. advice you seniors may expect to hear. People who know best don't want you to be 'in- patient. They say you can't expect to run things from the start. Are they right? To answer that question, look back to the time when you were freshmen. How many. in your class won any worthwhile campus honors that year? And why should they? What kind of a varsity teamn would freshmen make? AVyell that's the way many people feel about seniors hoping to run the business world next year. Tihe ambition to lead is all right.. But- in business as at college-first must come the try-outs . Then, if- you plug hard, the scrub team. Then, when you show you've "got the stuff," the varsity. But through it all remember this: the harder you work on the scrub, the sooner you'll make the varsity and the better, you'll cover your position. W~ork hard. Keep fit. Don't get downhearted. Remember, the team will need new blood some, dlay-maybe next game. When your chance comes, be ready. N "HEH, heh." 45 45 * i;h.
