Student’s Taste in PeriodicalsChanges—Dealer Reveals

According to our local magazine stories are usually on subjects imme-dealer, J. W. Grant, the “ Saturday Evening Post” is losing its prestige on campus. The general trend of the students’ taste seems to be toward “ Collier’s” and “ Liberty.” Of course, Phi Beta Kappa’s may not approve of any of these periodicals, but once in a while, of course, not as a general habit, but just once in a while, we like to get the cynical drift of “ Vox- Pop” and “ Keeping Up with the World.” These columns are perhaps two of the drawing cards which are making “ Collier’s” and “ Liberty” favorites with college students. The “ Saturday Evening Post” has “ PostScripts” to brighten and amuse its readers, a column which is the equal of any modern humor.

In their spasmodic periods of reading, students require either bright, short, or fantastic stories, such as are supplied by “ Liberty” and “ Collier’s.” Such stories cater to all popular tastes, and are not too lengthy as are in the “ Post.”

The “ Saturday Evening Post” is too staid and conservative to suit the modern students’ taste; it offers to its readers only one side of political questions, and the up-to-date student likes to at least appear broad-minded by considering all sides of such questions.

The “ Post’s” Damon Runyan, however, cannot be approached, in the opinion of the students, by writers of either of its opponents, but the fiery authors of the livid stories written in “ Collier’s” and “ Liberty” have a great appeal to popular sentiment, since the

diately before the public eye, and the authors are picturesque in their fields.

Another and rather absurd objection the students have to the “ Post” is that it is too loosely put together to outlive the rough-houses, which are inevitable in college life. Its covers are easily lost, and the paper is worn and torn by much handling.

“ Collier’s” and “ Liberty” are smaller, and more durable, and on their covers are beautiful pictures with which to decorate the otherwise barren walls of the rooms.

A psychological effect that is rather against the “ Saturday Evening Post” is that its stories are broken up by advertisements to an extent which makes it difficult to carry on the trend of narrative after the place of continuation is found. Again, the paper upon which the “ Post” is printed is flimsy, its letters are often blurred, and the illustrations are sketchy and often ill fitted to the stories. In contrast, “ Collier’s” and “ Liberty” are neat, compact, and well illustrated, with stories which can be easily followed after a couple of pages of intermission. In these latter magazines only a few pages are skipped before the stories are continued, which is surely not true of the “ Post.”

All these objections cannot detract from the solid literary effort of the “ Post,” or add to the popular fiction in “ Collier’s” and “ Liberty,” but they go to show what petty reasons can change the trend from one to another of several common periodicals.

LEADING AMERICANS CONDUCT TOUR

University Travel Bureau’s Non-profit Basis Plan Makes Expenses Very

ReasonableBoston, Mass., February 23, 1933

Early in July a group of Americans will visit the Soviet Union under the guidance of specialists. The movement will be called the First Russian Seminar, and every possible attempt will be made to give the members an unprejudiced insight into conditions, past, present, and future. Propaganda of all kinds will be avoided. Experienced American authorities will accompany the group giving talks to the members of the Seminar on such subjects as history, economics, politics, art, architecture and religion.

An advisory committee of leading Americans who are authorities on Russia has been formed, including the following names: Stuart Chase,. New York City; Professor Kenneth Conant, Samuel H. Cross, and Bruce C. Hopper, Harvard University; Henry W. L. Dane, Cambridge; Pro- tessor George H. Day, Occidental Coliege; Professor Samuel N. Harper, the University of Chicago; Henry I. Harriman, President, United States Chamber of Commerce, Boston; Professor Walter W. Hyde, University of Pennsylvania; Professor Frank Nowak, Boston University; Grove Patterson, Editor of the Toledo Blade, Toledo; Professor D. C. Poole, Princeton University; Professor G. T. Robinson, Columbia University; F. Tredwell Smith, New York City; and Whiting Williams, Cleveland.

Extensive contacts have been made with the cultural and political leaders of Soviet life and there will be frequent opportunities for informal discussions with men and women who are responsible for the present policies. Frank round table discussions with question and answer periods will be the order of the day.

To the thoughtful American citizen, anxious to learn the utmost possible about the ways and means of improving our present civic-economic organization, the First Russian Seminar will make a strong appeal. In th e c a s e of Soviet R u s s ia , more th a n ever before, it is necessary to see in order* to understand. So many conflicting reports emanate from Russ ia , tempered with propaganda, or personal prejudice, or both, that the

CONFERENCE FOR U. N. H. STUDENTS

Dr. S. Ralph Harlow to HeadConference March 4, 5

on “Religion and Our Age”

A most unusual and unique opportunity will be presented to the students of this campus on March 4 and 5, in the nature of a week-end conference. At a time when conferences are in order New Hampshire, not to be outdone by other colleges and universities, is bringing to our own campus an opportunity for real constructive thinking under the direction of an able leader.

Beginning on Saturday at 2:30 in Murkland auditorium with a short opening address by the speaker, Dr. S. Ralph Harlow, the conference will take the form of an open forum in three sessions (Saturday 2:30, Saturday 7:30, Sunday 2:30). Discussion will center around the topic, “ Religion and Our Age,” and will endeavor to think through the relation of religion to the political, social, and economic problems of our present day.

Dr. Harlow, who will direct the thought during the conference and who will also speak at the morning service in the Community church, is at present professor of Religion and Social Ethics at Smith College. He is a graduate of Harvard College and Union Theological Seminary, holding an A.M. degree from Columbia, and a Ph.D. from Hartford Theological Seminary. From 1912 to 1922 he was chaplain and head of the department of sociology at International College, Syria, Turkey, and during this time was General Secretary of the Student Volunteer Movement in the Near East. He has lectured in China, India, the Near East, and the United States, and spends many weekends lecturing at colleges throughout the United States, being an eminent speaker both in the religious and international fields. In 1931 Dr. Harlow was director of the Students’ International Union at Geneva.

Registration for the conference should be made in advance, and a charge of fifty cents will be made to help cover expenses. Registration may be made either with the Christian Work office or a member of the Religious Work Council.

PUTNEY UPHOLDS MILITARY DRILL

Changing Russia Necessitates An Entirely New Environment”

Declares Hindus in Lecture“ Regardless of your sympathy or

enmity toward Soviet Russia you cannot go over there and witness what has, and what is being done without becoming moved by the tremendous drama which is being enacted there.”

Thus did Maurice Hindus, author and lecturer, open his address before the Manchester Institute of Arts and Sciences Monday evening where places were reserved for fifty University students.

Mr. Hindus came to this country long before the Russian Revolution, when he was only fourteen. For some time he worked as a farm laborer. Then he worked his way through Colgate University and graduated with high honors. From there he went to the Graduate School at Harvard. His lectures, like his writings, are based on first-hand knowledge. He has made six trips to Russia since the Revolution. He has traveled on foot and on horseback over the four corners of his native country, going from town to town and village to village, visiting with the peasants. He has lived with them, talked with them, and worked in the fields with them to learn their reactions to the present conditions.

The task of changing Russia, Mr. Hindus explained, was one of creating an entirely new environment and set of ideals. The Russian leaders went about this from three angles: first, by the abolition of private property; second, by stamping out any vestiges

of religion; and third, by the destruction of the individualistic family.

The first objective, the abolition of private property, was accomplished by placing all income producing property under government ownership. This confiscation did not, of course, include clothing, furniture, pictures, radios, and the like. Stores, laundries, factories and all other means of profit, come under the government’s control. For his participation in a government activity the worker receives a wage which he may spend to support himself and his family as he sees fit.

The founders of the Soviet system believed religion was a habit. An individual could be brought up in a Roman Catholic environment and he would acquire the Roman Catholic habit; if reared in Judaism he would of necessity be addicted to the Jewish habit. So it is that the Russian cinema, schools, and recreation are all militantly atheistic. Parents are allowed to teach their children any religious principles they choose; but the government believes that the outside influences will outweigh any religious instruction in the home. Nevertheless, churches exist unmolested by governmental interference.

In abolishing the individualistic family, Russia has maintained family life under greatly changed conditions. It is not a family life by compulsion, but one by will and desire. Divorce may be obtained by either husband or

Speaks on Mountaineering in Alpine Region—Ascent

Depicted by Slides and Movies

New Hampshire Curricula Unaffected by Case of

Maryland Students Court Appeal

Regarding the recent agitation started by two students at University of Maryland, President Lewis refuses to express any opinion in connection with compulsory military science.

The rumor that the now required course at this University will be abolished in the future has been found to be merely one of slight significance. It is to have no effect on any other such institutions of which ours is one.

At an interview with Colonel Putney the situation was summed up in the fact that so far as the University of New Hampshire is concerned, or any other state university, the situation is the same as always. The Maryland affair was held to be in no way connected with them. The case was between the students and the Maryland institution over the fact that the men should not necessarily be required to take the military training course.

It is not the National or the State Governments that control the question of what students shall take the course; it is the trustees of the individual colleges. The New Hampshire Committee of Trustees has been quite lenient to those students who have a conscious desire to refrain from military training. Dean Pettee is at the head of this committee in charge of such cases, and although during the history of the college there has been very few instances of students desiring to abstain from taking the course, there have been no refusals if the parents objected on sufficient grounds. It has been found that religious scruples and physical deformities are the only good reasons for exemption.

Rev. Hilda Ives, representing the Town and Country Department of the Massachusetts Federation of Churches, will address the group in Agricultural Economics, 7-b, on Saturday, February 25, at ten o’clock. The group will meet in Room 104, Morrill Hall.

The Lyceum course program which was held on Monday evening of this week in the men’s gymnasium consisted of a lecture by Bradford Washburn on “ The Philosophy of Mountaineering.”

Mr. Washburn’s lecture was supplemented by a set of slides portraying his ascent of Mont Blanc, which is the highest mountain peak in Europe, towering 15,780 feet above sea level. There were also motion pictures of the entire Alpine region, taken in the vicinity of Mont Blanc near the French-Italian border. The purpose of the trip, the means, and the various incidents during the climb were topics of interest.

A story of the beginning of mountaineering in the Alps was told portraying the superstition that existed among the natives in the Alpine region two hundred years ago. They believed that there lived in the mountains great winged devils, monsters, and dragons, until various expeditions proved otherwise.

The purpose of this particular ascent was to test out different types of camera films and other apparatus, and especially to acquire necessary knowledge for an Alaskan trip. Mountain climbing in Alaska is extremely diffi-1 cult in comparison with that in the Alps. The mountain ranges have not been fully explored, the hazards are much more dangerous, and the facilities are by no means so adequate. The climbing is difficult, and the surrounding country is not inhabited, such as is that near Mont Blanc. In the Alps there are cabins at intervals on all the mountain ridges; even in the valleys there are small villages.

No guides were taken on the ascent for these young adventurers wanted to become more independent and to acquire more self-confidence. Five times during the trip did they go to the topmost peak. Mr. Washburn and his companion, Walter Everett, have been on such expeditions each summer for the past six. years. Two years have been spent in Alaska while the remaining four have been spent in the Alps. Next summer they are planning a trip to Alaska.

Mr. Washburn is a senior at Harvard University, and his first conquest of Mont Blanc was made in 1926. He is now twenty-three years of age, and his home is in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The lectures are given to defray the expenses of their expeditions.

DURHAM, N. H., FEB. 23, 1933.

n^ylO L O N E L PUTNEY of the University R. O. T. C. has expressed the 1C [ I °P^n on that the decision rendered in the University of Maryland! 1 conAict with students who desire exemption from compulsory military

1 drill will have no effect on this or any other unit of the R. O. T. C.: at the nation’s universities.

We beg to differ with the Colonel. We are of the opinion that the status of R. O. T. C. units throughout the country are being seriously questioned' by the Maryland case and many other student uprisings in American universities. It has been a choice morsel o f argument /as to whether the R. O. T. C. furnishes citizenship or military training. It appears that the Maryland institution could not show the court wherein the training was of a citizenship character. It also appears that a man’s personal convictions in the matter of preparation for war are at last being considered.

The R. O. T. C. as compulsory part of man’s college education is fast losing ground. That cannot be denied. Too many student groups are demanding that the compulsory feature of military training be taken from the curriculums. The University of Minnesota is creating a furore over the point. New York colleges have fought compulsion for years.

It is well known that there is nothing in the federal law which says that students must take military training. The law merely requires that land grant colleges offer the training. The college itself either makes it optional or compulsory. The University of New Hampshire makes it compulsory by ruling of the trustees.

We choose to blame New England’s rank nationalism for the slowness with which it comes to the realization of the waste of time and money that military training means.

That the military department of the nation saw the waning interest in military training is obvious. One indication— Pictures of pretty co-eds all dolled up in elegant uniforms acting as sponsors and officers for drill units appear in the news often now. An attempt is being made to gain women’s sanction to war by building up a favorable attitude among girls. An attempt to insure a future slaughter of their sons! Or perhaps the girls give it the proper tea party atmosphere.

The whole procedure is a glaring lie. The boys know it and are consequently disgusted or amused at the antics of their elders in trying to pull some wool over their eyes while shouting, “ The Youth must save the world. We look to you, Youth, to pull the world out of the rut.” And at the same time the solons do their little bit to make it impossible.

The boys know that no pretty co-ed will be holding their hand when they are wallowing around in oceans of mud and blood, living on a questionable* diet, and suffering every known agony while the enemy ( ? ) blast hell out of earth and sky.

Doctor Strattam of M. I. T. has been quoted as saying that a man should not be a citizen of any country that he is not willing to fight for. This attitude is the key to present international trouble. With a continued selfish and moronic nationalism pervading the relations of nations, no sort of peace can be assured. Until the so-called learned men who control our national destinies recognize once and for all that all nations are interdependent in every sense, we will continue to pay in blood and socio-economic regress.

Military training will be defunct before many generations or civilization will die by its own hand. War cannot stand the scrutiny of reason. No war has yet settled the problem at issue; it merely prolonged and aggravated the argument; it destroyed the world’s economic and social equilibrium; it destroyed the cream of the world’s young men and women. The following generations suffered economic and social chaos and were deprived of the budding leadership of the youth who submitted to slaughter in the great universal crime.

Will mankind kill war or will war kill mankind?

RE^lH ERE has been some agitation of late for a bi-weekly issue of The IC /J New Hampshire. Nothing perhaps would plelase the editors to a

greater degree, unless it be a daily college paper at this University. We of the staff would certainly be willing to double our efforts bty; putting two issues a week of The New Hampshire on the streets.

But we wonder whether the students and our advertisers would be as willing to cooperate.

Printing two issues per week would mean doubling the expense of the paper and unless it were possible to likewise double our income, the practice would be futile, even foolish. Possibly we could increase our advertising to the limits. Even so, there remains the problem of circulation. At present the number of our subscribers in total stands somewh;at below the figure at which we feel that it should. Doubtless many of the students on campus can subscribe if they will— at least a larger proportion than already does. The student circulation is actually only about one third of our entire circulation. The alumni and faculty are much more willing to subscribe to The New Hampshire than the undergraduates. Yet, if the paper announced that it was going to close down due to lack of support, the undergraduates would be the first to protest.

It is not inconceivable, this plan of a bi-weekly New Hampshire, but it requires three things: the increased amount of advertising; double work for the staff; and, most important, better undergraduate support.

It is significant that the alumni are as willing as they are to subscribe to this paper. They deserve credit. Our advertisers are likewise very prompt and obliging with their insertion orders. They, too, are deserving of credit. But the same thing cannot be said of the undergraduate body and we can see little excuse for it. At least one thousand students should take The New Hampshire. It seems to us that it is not too much to expect that two-thirds of the undergraduates subscribe.

Assuming that our advertisers and our staff are willing to devote their time and money to enabling the editors to publish a bi-weekly, we will hesitate only until the undergraduates signify their willingness to cooperate. If the student body will increase its subscriptions, we will endeavor to urint a hi weekly New Hampshire.

wife, with for without the other’s consent or knowledge. No reason need be given by the person being granted divorce for his or her act. If it is so desired, the government will notify the other party and save the feelings of the one initiating the action. Either party is liable to the payment of alimony in case the other party is sick within a year after divorce. The woman usually has the children placed under her care.

Marriage is performed by simply answering a few questions and filling- out a printed form. However, marriage is not necessary as the state casts no aspersions on free love or any similar relationship outside of wedlock. Unbelievable as it may sound, Mr. Hindus defied anyone who had been to Russia to deny that it was the most moral, even Puritanical, nation in the world today.

Children are the chief concern of the Russian state. It may heartlessly exile or imprison old men or women, _ it may execute adults without hesitation or compunction, but where children’s welfare or proper development are concerned, it most strenuously interferes. The well-planned nurseries and schools are testimony

to the fact that Russia realizes the power which it can exert in moulding the plastic minds of its children and youth. Health and cleanliness have become a part of Russian culture lunmng parallel to the increased enlightenment in science and industry.

lne large collective farms which we associate with present-day Russia came into existence after the government had tried to improve agricultural methods among the individual farmers, and had met with 1 tie success. Now large numbers

of farmers live together in farm communities which have their places oi amusement, their hospitals, nur- senes,_and schools. Those who insist on living alone are still allowed to do so.

Mr. Hindus divided the people of -Kussia into the old and young. And it they may be divided in this way they may further be differentiated as the unhappy and out-of-place, and the enthusiastic and industrious. The old look around at the new life about them regretfully. Everything has lett them behind with their God, their social position and strong family ties, it is the youth of Russia which works away with all its heart for the Five

Pr°letariat revolution, and the worker’s advanced standard o living. It is the youth of which the government expects so much; it is also the youth of Russia at which the rest of the world is looking with amazement and incredulity.

by Richard B. Clarkson

Charles Morgan’s third novel, “ The Fountain,” has now been in print since last June, and in these days of weekly novels-of-the-century, it may seem too much like a yearning after the dead past to refer to it after six months. But, to our mind, too few people have read it. We think it is possibly the best of the very few worth-while novels published in 1932, and should rank with such books as “ One of Ours,” “ Wolf Solent,” and “ The Magic Mountain.” As a general rule, we do not like to have to think very much about a novel—novels are for our amusement, and when we wish to think, we read essays and the new poetry—but when we read this we found ourselves thinking without the feeling of having been forced into it. That is the most admirable quality of this book.' It sets you thinking . . . after it has been read and put down, it is as though a ghostly voice had spoken and asked, in the tone of one who will be answered, “ What is truth, and what does happiness mean to you?” The quantity of Mr. Morgan’s published work is not great, but the quality is there.

In common with the way of “ The Magic Mountain,” the characters of “ The Fountain” are less people of flesh and blood than the media through which the author may express his own notions about life and spiritual values. At the end of the book, its people depart from us with as much uncertainty of destination as do the lovers in “ Saint Agnes Eve” ; the things of which they speak are to most of us old, forgotten, far-off things, and the land which they inhabit is a land remote and strange. It is not a book written for our entertainment, and will not do for a train journey. The reading of it requires a comfortable chair and an evening in which there is nothing else to be done.

MUNI AS CHAIN GANG FUGITIVE

“I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang” Shown

at The Franklin Friday

The authenticity and absolute faithfulness to detail in the strange and unusual settings and picturesque atmosphere of state prison camps shown in “ I am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang,” which will be on the screen at the Franklin Theatre Friday, February 24, is vouched for by Director Mervyn LeRoy.

Mr. LeRoy had vivid descriptions from the biographical novel of Robert E. Burns, the escaped convict, on which novel the Warner Bros, picture is based, to work from. But not content with this, he engaged Jack Miller, a former chain gang prisoner, and J. H. Sulivan, for years a guard in the particular prison camp, to act as technical advisors.

“ I not only was able to make perfect sets from their descriptions, but I got right into the atmosphere through them,” said LeRoy. These two men checked on every detail as we went along, both for physical appearances and the actions of the convicts themselves. I also had the advantage of two view points, that of a guard and that of a former prisoner.”

Many ex-convicts also were used as extras in the prison gang in this picture which purports to be the actual experiences of the fugitive, Burns. The screen play was adapted by Sheridan Gibney and Brown Holmes. There is an unusually large cast including Paul Muni in the stellar role, Glenda Farrell, Helen Vinson, Preston Foster, Edward J. McNamara and Shelia Terry.

Students of the American Society of Civil Engineering held their regular winter term meeting at the President’s Dining Hall, Wednesday, February 15.

H. C. Archibald of the Division of Engineering of the Boston and Maine Railroad was the principal speaker. His topic was “ General Railroad Engineering and Maintenance Work.” Dean Case, Dean of Engineering, spoke briefly to the students.

The musical program was in charge of Olavi Waananen and Keith Twitchell.

Professors Bowler, Skelton, Dodge, and Mr. Dawson of the Civil Engineering faculty were present.

ILLUSION:Josie, the lovely trapeze artist, stands upon a small platform. A t the will of the magician she leaps twenty feet into the air to reach her trapeze. She uses no ropes, no ladder! A phenomenal leap for a woman, , , or a man!

EXPLANATION:Josie didn’t jum p. . . she was sprung! The twenty-foot leap is not dependent on Josie’s ability, but on a powerful spring mechanism hidden beneath the stage which propels the artist upward through the air. The force is so violent that the lady wears a light steel jacket which protects her from injury as she starts her astonishing leap.

Magic has its place...but not in cigarette advertising.

Consider the illusion that there is a mysterious way to give cigarettes a superior “ flavor.”

explanation: Cigarette flavor can be controlled by adding artificial flavorings. By blending. And by the quality of tobaccos used.

Cheap, raw tobaccos can be “ built up” or “ fortified” by the lavish use o f artificial flavorings.

Copyright, 1933, R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company

C A M C L S

Such magic, however, seldom holds the audience. Your taste finally tells you the truth.

The cigarette flavor that never stales, never varies, never loses its fresh appeal, comes from mild, ripe, fragrant, more expensive tobaccos...blended to bring out the full, round flavor of each type of leaf. It’s the quality of the tobacco that counts!

It is a fact, well known by leaf tobacco experts, that

Camels are made from finer, MORE EXPENSIVE tobaccos than any other popular brand.

Because Camel actually pays millions more every year for choice tobaccos, you find in Camels an appealing mildness, a better flavor.

And Camels taste cooler because the welded Humidor Pack of three- ply, m o i s t u r e - p r o o f cellophane keeps them fresh.

Nebel in Final Bout of Afternoon

Penn State brought a hard fighting team of boxers to the gym Saturday afternoon, where they defeated the New Hampshire mittslingers 4-3. Penn State took three wins and two draws in the first five bouts piling up a 4-1 lead, but Moody and McGrath, middleweight and lightheavyweight respectively turned in feature victories that stemmed the tide.

In the first bout of the afternoon, Miller, Penn State bantamweight, danced his way to a three round decision over Lincoln. Lincoln had the advantage of height and reach, but Miller was too elusive. Miller took the first two rounds rather easily, but Lincoln belted him all over the ring at the start of the final round. However, Miller’s dextrous back-pedalling kept him out of serious danger and he went on to win the bout.

John Napoleon of Penn State pounded out a decision over Captain Paul Dearborn in the 125 pound class. Dearborn fought a cautious defensive fight, and made Napoleon carry the fight to him. Napoleon forced the fighting and took all three rounds by slight margins.

McCaughney and F.errero, lightweights fought a three round draw. McCaughney took the first round by a wide margin due to harder hitting and better form in the fighting. Mc- Caugney continued to add to his lead in the second, as he constantly beat the Penn Stater to the punch, How- five". Ferrero came back in the third round and won it decisively.

Providence, R. I., Feb. 15.— Satisfactory working of the New Hampshire Farm Bureau “ five-year” plan for electrifying farms was reported by the State Committee on Rural Line Construction at the New England Institute on Rural Electrification held here today.

The plan, which has now been in effect four years in New Hampshire, provides that the community as a whole contract to pay for enough current so that the company is assured of a 20 per cent, gross return annually on its entire construction cost, including meters, transformers and services, for a period of five years. The committee points out that under this plan the current used can pay the construction bill; the customers do not build the line and present it to the companies.

Dartmouth and McGill led New Hampshire in the lannual, Lucernje winter sports meet. New Hampshire put up a splendid showing but due to bad breaks of fate could gain no better than a third place.

The meet opened Saturday with Dartmouth immediately gaining the lead, which they held until the end. Had it not been for the fact that Blood fell in the ski jump and missed out on a flag on the slalom the result might have been different. Blood, however, proved his superiority in a trial jump by attaining a distance of 197 feet.

The summary of the events are as follows:

Ski jump: R. L. Dendon, McGill 208.4 m; J. A. Trachier, N. H. 208.1 m; Bill Burke, Ottawa 189.9 m; Gold- waithe, Dartmouth 187.4 m.

Ruth Bresnahan and Mary Carswell fed the ball to Marjorie Osberg who missed only two shots for basket during the entire game. The Grenier sisters, Kappa Delta, played a hard game but missed many shots for basket which Jean Moore, Dorothy Williams, and Edith Pike, Phi Mu guards, took advantage of to return the ball to their forwards.

New Hampshire’s varsity basketball team won its third game of the current week as it came from behind to defeat a surprisingly strong quintet from Arnold College 43-36 at the gymnasium, Tuesday night.

Coach Swasey started his second team which played on even terms with Arnold throughout most of the first half. With the insertion of the regular team, late in the second period, Arnold immediately ran up a four point lead which they held at half time. It was a see-saw struggle late into the first half, with Arnold leading 17-16 when the first team entered into the fray. The varsity was held scoreless as the Arnold team added four points to their total of seventeen to finish the first half.

Both teams seemed determined to gam a large score as the game opened. The second team, starting their first game of the current season, did nobly by themselves. New Hampshire gathered a large lead immediately; however, the Arnold team not to be outdone, started functioning, and slowly but surely proceeded to overtake the Wildcats. Funston and Wilde were substituted tor Toll and Stylianos, but to no avail. ^J^old kept gaining and procured a lv-16_lead. The entire first team was substituted for the remainder of the half but the close saw Arnold leading 21-16.

The second ■ half opened with the New Hampshire regulars still opposing Arnold. The game developed into a nip and tuck battle with Arnold holding their lead. The play of Crowe and Mantelli for Arnold seemed destined to lead their team to victory with their fine shooting and all around playing.

The commencement of the fourth quarter found Arnold leading 33-30. New Hampshire suddenly came to life and began functioning. They overtook Arnold, gained the lead, and held it until the end of the game. The final score was 43-36 in New Hampshire’s favor.

Captain Gormley, McKiniry and Morrissey were the shining lights for New Hampshire. Crowe and Man- a were the main forts for the Arnold team during the evening

Morrissey’s shooting and defense play featured the first half, while Captain Gormley, McKiniry, and Koehler took scoring honors the second half.

Mantelli, Arnold guard and one of the best long shot artists to appear on the local court featured the game as he scored eleven points for the visitors',. Captain Ikowitz iotf Arnold accounted for several sensational shots in the first half.

Babcock, Mr. Ned Elliot, and Miss Irma Bowen. Five students were placed in the “ A ” class, which includes those who are now ready to go out on programs. Six students were placed in ' B” . class, who showed outstanding ability, but who need additional work. The remaining students were thought to have possibilities, but will need considerable practice before going out on the_ teams. Tryouts will be held again in the near future.

Mr. B. F. Andrew, former secretary of Christian work here, and now pastor of the Federated Church at Dublin, N. H., writes: “ I am looking after three towns here— have no competition, and we are enjoying the work.”

It will be recalled that Boston College has one of the strongest debating squads in the East. For the past three years, they have been undefeated in intercollegiate competition. Last year New Hampshire lost by a 2-1 judges’ decision, the first team in three years to win the approval of a judge. Boston College had previously won from the University of California by a 3-0 decision.

U. N. H. Five Ekes Out 36-34 Win


for Springfield during the first period, at the end of which Springfield led 14-18.

Springfield increased its lead at the start of the second half with the insertion of four new men. Wells and Meade returned to the game and speeded up the attack. The deceptive passing and dribbling of Morse, Gymnast star guard, featured the second half. With four and a half minutes to play Springfield was leading 33-27. McKiniry sank a one-handed shot from the side of the court, and followed this with a long shot from behind the foul circle. Randall was fouled and made the shot, to make the score Springfield 34, New Hampshire 32. Trzuskoski, on a block play, completely fooled the opposition and tied the score. McKiniry climaxed the sensational finish by dribbling up the floor and shooting a basket which put New Hampshire in the lead with a minute left to play. The Gymnasts were unable to penetrate the Wildcat defense and the game ended with New Hampshire’s winning 36-34. The game was rather rough with relatively few fouls being called.

over time period. Walker, brilliant sophomore guard, led the Wildcat scorers with fifteen points, followed by Gormley and Koehler with fourteen and twelve points, respectively. Floren was high scorer for Brown with twelve points.

Koehler led the pace during the first half as he scored *nine of New Hampshire’s points during this period. Brown’s guards, Hammer and Karaban, with four points each headed the Brown scorers. The playing during this period was fairly fast, but rather sloppy at times. The defensive play of both teams was weak.

Floren found the range at the start of the second period and kept in the running by several fancy shots. The foul shooting of Morse, substitute center, also featured. Walker and Gormley scored eighteen points during the second half and the overtime period. The defensive play continued to be weak, as both teams shot practically unmolested.

uncanny insight, shows us the path of the souls of these three people through love and pain in search of peace, and leaves us to decide for ourselves whether or not they have attained it.

Julie, we think, does not find it. She is too young, too inexperienced, too confused. Neither, we think, does Alison. “ Meditations in order to a good life,” says a seventeenth century writer whom Alison reads, “ let them be as exalted as the capacity of the person and the subject will endure, up to the height of contemplation; but if contemplation comes to be a distinct thing, and something beside or beyond a distinct degree of virtuous meditation, it is lost to all sense. . . Let no man be hasty to eat of the fruits of paradise before his time.” Alison was too hasty. Rupert, Julie’s husband, goes a little beyond them. He sees in the Platonic theory of the core of stillness no justification for withdrawal from the world of reality, but a chance for a greater form, a clearer insight, a more complete understanding of life as it should be lived by a man who is not only a philosopher. He speaks, wearily, before he dies: “ Hatred and jealousy and possessive love, perhaps all earthly love, belong to the childhood of the soul, as you know. You are among the few men living who understand that they are to be outgrown. And I have learned that there are experiences that quell them. There are experiences that take the place of philosophy. . . Here nothing is certain but fulfillment and consequence. We sow and reap; and if we fail to reap our harvest when it is ripe, then afterward we reap it when it is poisoned. There is no other way of passing beyond them into reality.” Here, and in the quotation from Plato with which Mr. Morgan prefaces his book, is contained what John Galsworthy would call the “ spire of meaning” of the story.

We may, perhaps, say that the book is highly introspective, and that the characters are only thin ghosts inhabiting a world of dream and theory; that no certainty but only provocation will result from reading it. This may be true, but it is also true that now- a-days we seek too much for certainties and receive only a dusty answer for our pains. With his book, Mr. Morgan thrusts searching fingers into our souls and, as is the habit of true poets and philosophers, brings to a clear light truths about ourselves that we have not cared heretofore to

Penn State Takes First Five Bouts

With a 4-1 Lead(Continued from Page 3)

most of the spectators, but Referee Johnny Brassil called it a draw.

Capt. McAndrews won over Lucin- ski by a technical knockout in the second round of their welterweight go. Lucinski was outweighed by about nine or ten pounds, and was too inexperienced for the Penn Stater. Lucinski lasted through the first round but it was evidently only a matter of time before McAndrews won. Early in the second round he caught Lucinski with a hard right to the jaw, driving him to the ropes, where he continued to pound him. The referee stepped in and stopped the bout as Lucinski held on to the ropes to hold himself upright.

Ahern and Kessler of Penn State put on a three round slugfest in the 155 pound class which resulted in a draw. Ahern took the first round by a slight margin, but Kessler opened it up in the second. Kessler came out for the third round and met with a stiff left jab to the face. They exchanged jabs and clinched. They kept this up for nearly ‘half the round, then Kessler began to take the lead, and had Ahern backed into his corner at the bell. There were no knockdowns, and the referee’s decision of a draw was not well received by the spectators.

Moody slugged out a spectacular three round win over Slusser, Captain-elect of the Penn State football team in the 165 pound class. The first round found the battlers standing toe to toe slugging it out, with Moody having a slight edge. Slusser began to show the effects of his hard battle of the night before at the start of the second stanza. Moody dropped him twice in this round, once by a straight right to the jaw, and once by means of a half-nelson and head- lock. Moody took the third round decisively, as he drove his opponent around the ring with straight rights and lefts to the body, alternating

examine very closely. It is an embarrassingly naive questioning of, and a challenge to, our age and the lives that we are all living— a fairy-story that will perhaps trouble our dreams. It will, as we said before, set us to thinking.

with hooks and jabs to the head. There was no question as to the verdict, but Slusser received an ovation for his gameness and stamina as he left the ring.

The final bout of the afternoon was in the lightheavyweight division with McGrath having an edge over Nebel of Penn State. Nebel was unable to fathom McGrath’s southpaw style, consequently the Wildcat took all three rounds. McGrath floored his opponent for a count of nine in the second, but was unable to administer a K. O. At the start of the third round Nebel rallied and forced McGrath to the ropes with two hard rights to the body, which slowed him up. McGrath held for a moment, but soon returned to the attack, and had Nebel groggy at the bell.

Johnny Brassil, well known Boston referee, officiated at the bouts.

American Group Visits Soviet Union in July


sponsors of the Seminar believe it will provide a splendid opportunity for those who wish to understand the significance of this gigantic experiment in Communism.

The Seminar will remain in the Soviet Union for a month after having first visited London, Copenhagen and Finland en route to Leningrad, the first stop of the Seminar in Russia. The Republic of Russia, which is the most important unit of all the union of Socialist Soviet Republics, will occupy the Seminar for about two weeks and include a visit to Leningrad, Moscow, Novgorod and Gorki. There will be a four day trip on the Volga by river steamer. The Caucasus and the “ Caucasian Riviera” will precede the Russian steamer trip across the Black Sea to the Crimea for a detailed visit of this region. The giant dam at Dnieprostroi will be visited after which the Seminar will proceed to Kiev by Dnieper River steamer. This will give the Seminarists an opportunity to see the Great Black Belt and the Ukraine. The Russian portion of the Seminar ends at Odessa, but one of the most interesting features of the trip will be a two weeks’ Near East cruise, ending in Venice, including stops in Rumania, B.ulgaria, Turkey, Macedonia, Greece and Albania. The group will proceed overland from Venice

DURHAM PLAYERS TO GIVEC0MEDY

Cast Selected to Present “To the Ladies” by George Kaufman and

Marc ConnollyProfessor Arthur W. Johnson an

nounces the selection of the cast for the production “ To the Ladies,” a sparkling comedy to be presented by the Durham Players at the Community House on Thursday and Friday evenings, March 9 and 10.

“ To the Ladies,” written by the world .famous playwrights, George S. Kaufman and Marc Connolly, involves a plot built around young Leonard Beebe and his wife Elsie, a wise little girl from Mobile, Alabama. The Beebe’s live in Nutley, New Jersey, the scene where much of the action of the story takes place. Leonard represents the average young American clerk. His wife decides to make her dearly beloved something more than a clerical worker. Her efforts to bring this transition about represents a real problem and she has her hands full in accomplishing this purpose.

The cast of characters is as follows:Elsie Beebe, Miss Gwenyth M. Ladd Leonard Beebe, Edward Hazeltine John Kincaid, Harold ScudderMrs. Kincaid, Mrs. Mary Langley Chester Mullin, J. A. BrownTom Baker, J. J. EnnisA Truckman, D. H. ChapmanAnother Truckman, Carl Purrington The Toastmaster, R. G. Webster Politician, A. W. JohnsonPhotographer, J. A.

to Paris, sailing from Cherbourg to New York.

The entire plan has been conceived and will be carried out on a non-profit basis under the direction of the Bureau of University Travel, Newton, Massachusetts. The minimum rate of $619 is made possible by using the lowest grade accommodations, but members may travel any class they choose by paying the actual difference in tariff rates.

in Holland for the duration of the war. The enforced isolation seems to him to be the very thing for which he has been longing, and he settles himself contentedly to meditation and to writing his history of the contemplative life. His life there will be his mind. But, to quote Lapham, a brother officer, “ . . . . Women never leave you alone. They come in like water into an old ship. First your mother. Then your wife. Then, when you think you’re through with it, your daughter worryin’ at you. You never get clear. This fort mayn’t be as a peaceful as it looks for Alison.” It is not. Alison is removed to Enkendaal, the castle of the Van Leydens, and falls in love with Julie, the stepdaughter of his host. Julie is already married to a German officer who, after being severely wounded, returns to Enkendaal and to the arms of his wife. He is as sincerely in love with her as are Julie and Alison with each other. He is a person of culture and taste, as are Julie and Alison. Julie will give up neither her husband nor Alison. It remains for all three of them either to run their heads against the stone wall of an impasse or to seek the consolations of philosophy.

It will be observed that Mr. Morgan does not resort to the hackneyed device of making one of his triangular characters a villain, and melodrama has no place in the story. It is the presentation of a search for spiritual independence, the inner tranquility of which Plato speaks. Mr. Morgan, with

I never knew before

I’d never thought much about what’s inside a Chesterfield cigarette. But I have just been reading something that made me think about it.

Just think of this, some of the tobacco in Chesterfield— the Turkish—comes from 4000 miles away! And before it is shipped every single leaf is packed by hand. All because Turkish tobacco is so small and delicate.

Of course I don’t know much about making cigarettes, but I do know this— that Chesterfields are milder and have a very pleasing aroma and taste. They satisfy—and that’s what counts with me!
