THAT OMINOUS CLOUD looming
up on the horizon is Spring. The
vernal season, bane of housemothers,
boon to brewers, greatest impairer of
efficiency ever devised, is hard upon
us.
Even in the wartime years spring
was something pretty special. The
expression of wary disgust habitual
to the Michigan man was replaced by
a gleam of cautious interest at sight
of the Michigan coed. Some of them
even went so far as to hold doors
T HE ARBORETUM and the Island
blossomed with beer-picnics at
which very little beer was drunk;
coeds smeared on leg makeup instead
of stockings, and the Navy had trou-
ble keeping its summer whites clean.
The grass around the diagonal took
on some of the less startling aspects
of Coney Island, and wistful songs
like "Sentimental Journey" became
immensely popular with coeds writing
long, fervid letters to friends over-
seas.
BUT THIS YEAR Spring is going to

I- -
ing significantly popular, and coeds
are wearing that reflective, cat-that-
swallowed-the-canary-smile.
The people who have wagons to
hire for hayrides are booked up for
weeks in advance, and sorority alums
are calling up to inquire with accrbity
who that was silhouetted in the porch,
door with whom last night.
THE PROPER AUTHORITIES have
recognized this changed situation,
and are taking steps. One eminently
practical sorority housemother is
turning off the porch light a quarter
of an hour earlier than usual.
The usual .an against anything
remotely resembling sunbathing with-
in a ten-mile radius of any dorm has
been issued, and a solemn conclave
about the Lowered Moral Tone cf the
campus has been held.
It seems that the fair names of
certain dorms have been dishonored
by unseemly displays of aflection
around the entrances. Residents have
been urged to stay a good ten inches
away from their dates, around the
front door at any rate, a suggestion
which opens up whole vistas of fas-
cinating possibilities.

Approximately one third of the total bulk of the four
Gospels deals with the death of Christ and related sub-
jects. This is indeed remarkable! Ordinary biographies
speak at length of the hero's life and declare his death
in a sentence or two but the Bible has a sentence or
two about Christ's birth and speaks at length -even
institutes a sacrament, anent his death. A theology that
turns about his death has greater claim to being in the
tradition than has one that turns about his life. And it
is specifically the cross of Christ that "towers o'er the
wrecks of time".
