If this scheme were followed out,
here would be greater satisfaction all
round. There would be no barrel to

COLLEGE JOURNALISM
"College journalism is one of the
nappreciated arts. And yet it is
,ore than passing strange that it
iould be, for, as a means of prepar-

ish courses in the curriculum

acher of English that one of
t serious weaknesses of pre-
training in composition is the
a definite aim of the student
writing, and a corresponding
interest on his part in doing

eport actual events for pub-

both material and purpose;
e is no branch of writing that

demands more excellent practice in
the co-ordination of ideas and rapid-
ity and clearness of observation.
"The desire to write well is incip-
ient in every college student. Nothing
is more amusing than to see a writer
wrap himself in-a maze of words from
which it is more difficult to extract
the meaning than it is to "squeeze
blood from a turnip." Nothing excites
more admiration than a business or
social letter that is couched in clear,
flowing English. Yet many of us con-

spark of genius that enables us to put
our thoughts on paper.
"It is the aim of a college paper, to
entertain, to furnish news, and last,
but by no .means least, to serve as a
means for the development of literary

The tryouts for various campus

Michigan Ambulance Unit Delayed
Section 589 of the army ambulance
service has again been delayed from
