Small Colleges Are

Wheaton President
(By Intercollegiate Press)
NORTON, Mass., May 2. --- Small
colleges, like so many small businesses
which survived the depression while
the big ones fell, are headed for better
times, in the opinion of Dr. J. Edgar
Park, president of Wheaton College,
which has an enrollment of about 500
women students.
Originality, versatility and leader-
ship traits are found more frequently
in graduates of small girls' colleges
than in those frpm larger institutions,
especially state universities, in the
opinion of the Wheaton president.

Explained By D
Writing in The Forum, Dr. Clarencei
Cook Little, president of the Univer-
sity from 1925 to 1929, and noted au-
thority on cancer, declares that "new,
methods of attack have been de-
veloped in the fight against cancer.
They bear the stamp of increased
authority and of qualities which sug-
gest permanency and promise of great
development."
"The fight against cancer is trench
warfare, serious and consuming," his
article continues. "It is -- to a peculiar
degree ---everyone's fight," he writes.
"This is true because cancer is no re-
specter of anr age, sex, or social group.

is the transplanting of growth tissues.
He discusses two methods in which
this may be done: One, by keeping
the tissue alive in glass chambers for
the purpose of observation; and, two,
actually transplanting tissue into the
body of the animal of the species in

There is much less copying and ad-

Originality is encouraged, not stifled."
Lack of boy friends for girls is more
to be feared than an overabundance
of them, Dr. Park said.
"A girl who never has been taugh ,

to keep her head above water when
