CLASSIFIED DIRECTORY fortunate as it is, leads them only, in most cases, to petty misdolngs. We may therefore reason- ably expect to find a shift in their environment corresponding to the increasing seriousness of their offenses. It is impossible to ascertain all the factors of their environment between the periods of minor and major criminality, but it is very easy to lay a finger on one place where they are thrown into the company of experts in the profession they are to join. Penal institu- tions, by allowing all classes of criminals to mix, serve more as schools for crime than in the re- medial capacity assigned them by society. Progress is being made in many states toward' the segregation of criminal classes, but the facts revealed in the government survey demonstrate that there is a world of improvement still to be done. Any political moves in this direction de- serve support. Editorial Comment TOO MANY ENGINEERS Times of strife and turmoil always bring doubt and dejection. Even the firmest of institutions are subject to the shocks from violent social and economic changes such as those that are now en- suing. Since we are now in the midst of the great- est upheaval of the machine age, it is well that the engineering institutions in particular should look to their laurels. They must determine whether or not the engineering graduate of today is fitted to cope with the problems of the future and whether or not the present principles of en- gineering education will be applicable a decade hence. Many persons have suggested that there are too many engineers. There may be too many tech- nicians but there can never be too many engineers if engineers realize that they must solve economic and soial problems as well as purely technical propositions. This fact is in reality the major issue which has been evolved In the past few years. It has been said that the downfall of a civiliza- tion is caused by the genius of its development. Any civilization prospers only until its units of -production and consumption become s large that the solution of the problems which they present is beyond the scope of the human brain. Then the civilization falters. Even the leading scientists of our day, who claim to have knowl- edge of the intricate workings of stellar space at their very fingertips, seem unable to tell us the solution of our seemingly minor problems of social and economic life. If the educators and engineers of the future are to forestall a catastrophe in our day, then they must become more tolerant and more liberal with the humanities. They must dispense with the many and varied minor details and teach the student more of the fundamental and basic prin- ciples of engineering procedure. In addition, they must season this knowledge with a greater under- standing of how the accomplishments of the en- gineer can be made to mesh; to synchronize with, and to be applied to the problem of living. For after all, in the final analysis, the improvement of the conditions of life must be the aim of every profession." If such be the education of an engineer, then he will be far more than a mere technician. He will find that his accomplishments are received more favorably by the layman, that his profession will have a far greater influence than it has at pres- ent, and that he will become a far more valuable asset to his fellow-men. He will find that there never 'can be too many of his kind. --Polytechnic Reporter, Brooklyn Polytech. BRAINS-. Personality, not brains, is the reason for a girl's success, Dr. H. W. Mikesell, profesor of psychology at the Wichita University, believes. "Psychology has determined by actual experi- ment that success depends 85 per cent upon per- sonality and 15 per cent on brains," he states. Brains are our natural endowment from hered- ity. The best that we can do is to develop achieve- ment quotients within our limit. Personality as the sum total of a person's make- up gives a broad field of growth and develop- ment, and places 85 per cent of our success on our own initiative. Courtesy, co-operation, depend- ability, friendliness, all contribute to the charm of the admirable personality-and hence to one's success! Winthrop gives wide opportunities for brain achievement-but what of personality develop- ment? That is here, too: reading, culture, adap- tability to varied personalities of students and instructors-many things for developing inner selves and charm. Will we use them to develop our charm and contribute to our success? -The Johnsonian, Winthrop College.

Sharpie, taking no chances, rammed the boat into shore so hard that the bottom was stove in. The owner sued for $50 damages on the $15 boat so Skipper Sharp hired a lawyer, made two trips to Port Austin, spent nearly $100, and was finally fined $6.50 damages which the owner indig- nantly refused.

One with a sister living at the Alpha Phi house, said he could get a day bed from her. He called a truck and said, "Please call at the Alpha Phi house and get a* day bed which is to be delivered to the Phi Delta Phi house."

Brother Wierengo looked -at the hole in the wall, looked at Brother Wanty, looked at the gun, said "Dammit." A VERY DRUNK approached a couple of small co-eds and announced that he was going to escort them home. "Thish," he announced, "is an exshperiment. I don't believe that coedsh are ash high-hat fsh they are made out to be." When the smaller of the girls, who is very small indeed, hauled off and layed one on him, he looked sur- prised, hurt, walked off a little way and delivered this Parthian shot with inebriated dignity: "Now you're being ridiculoush."

Ann. 45 400 READ THE DAILY CLASSIFIED ADS comes with the new administration as Bill Hoff- man rallies his old War-time buddies about him to do battle with the Anderson gang - a gang that didn't believe President Roosevelt meant it when he said 3.2 beer would put the illegal beer men out of business. Many of the situations which "Song of the Eagle" presents are cliches which are disguised, as has been said, only by the popular appeal of a 3.2 beer scenario. The six strongest members of the cast all belong to the Old Guard of semi- stars and featured players designed to- appeal to a maximum percentage of the audience with a moderate cash outlay on the part of the pro- ducers. Credit is due Louise Dresser for her Emma; Miss Mary Brian of the alternately light and dark curls is de trop once once. * * * * *"AFRAID TO TALK" Ed... ..................... .Eric Linden Peggy............. .....Sidney Fox Anderson....................Tully Marshall Wade ........................Louis Calhern Jig Skelli................... Edward Arnold Supposedly appealling to the younger constitu- ency of an audience are Universal's 4 foot, 11 inch Sidney Fox and starirng, youthful Eric Lin- den. In "Afraid to Talk" sympathy is rallied about this pair through the medium of a murder frame-up on Linden by virtue of which the pitch- stained political bosses of a certain city hope to avoid penitentiary sentences for fraud. Gorillas carry on guerilla warfare with their Thompsons, Vickerses, and Brownings; children are shot down Ain the street; Linden is mauled to unconsciousness by police -third-degree men; and champagne flows freely. The result is a cleanup in the political situation and an acquittal for Linden. "Afraid to Talk" is '7,000. feet of film which loses punch because the same theme has been photographed many times in the past. -G. M. W.
