In the battle to come if democracy is to be presuved America will need men who understand democratic institutions and their workings such men in every type of job men who will know how to safeguard freedom even if economies are shattered or present theories smashed college men There is little time to lose This army’s staff of officers is yet too small to teach the Deeps how to fight this sort of war “For this year” out of college the training camp may spell defeat “But” you say “what if I’m drafted And isn’t my first duty to my country?” To the first question we’re talking mainly to men of college age the major part of which are under 21 To the second yes your first duty is the good of your county — the way you can serve it best And Congress with the constitutional pen of the American people has decided that the best way to gather an armed force for this emergency is the sign-po- st - ! draft There is no dishonor in not enlisting before being drafted therefore and far less honor with a sprinkling of poor sense in passing up college breaking educational training or wrecking a degree when this country knows itself to be in no such extremity as to need the sacrifice of its college-bre- d youth before they are graduated either in armed forces or defense industry And the army itself expects to draw its officers from the ranks of college men Quality counts there as it will everywhere else after the war So even from that standpoint he serves his country best who obtains a college education as he is eligible And coupling that thought with the long term advand men

Affects 1942 Term Courses “Wliaf do you suppose this new international era we’re entering e will mean to the classroom at this fall?” a querulous analyst asked us the other day “it's "Why" we came back certain to mean reference to the defense in war or to national every classroom With the big news events of the day sure to concern changing world events there'll be an international tie-i- n on at least half of the subjects discussed with prof's going off the subject most on ‘this morning’s communique’ Yessir it's likely this new international era will be as clearly reflected at college as at any other place since a college is the generally center of a community” Thanks or Silence? We sat back triumphantly after such an intellectual answer expecting thanks Or satisfied silence But no “Oh sure sure” he waved it way “But what will it mean as to actual changes in policy or curricula?” That last one stumped us and spoiled our whole afternoon in the measure A new Utah State catalog loomed up big and thick on the desk and there was nothing to do but go to its 275 pages to

many progressive changes have been effected as the college population has increased Some changes will be evident in Aggie personnel and campus appearance in September F P Champ Retires Administrative

years ago this fall that “Hy” as he is known by his establi2500 friends in intramurals shed the first program in place of the class series plan During that nine years he has watched from his tiny

those years the annual open house participated in last winter by more than 500 youths representing 30 teams Also established itague during his term as mural director was the division of teams according to strength and membership into the fraternity department and club circuits Short Classes Eliminated One more significant change that will be noted by students of past years is the elemination of shortened classes and the confusion that resulted from such an arrangement During spring quarter a special committee under the chairmanship of Dean N A Pedersen investi- gated possibilities for the designation of an established period for special assembly programs The group composed of faculty and student members voted in their final meeting of the school year to adopt a plan calling for such a period every Wednesday at 11 am All classes will be shortened 20 minutes on that day to provide for the weekly program and all assemblies excepting the Friday talent show will

don't be too impressed by these Mister Bigs swathed in blue and most of ’em white sweaters have ineligibility lurking like a phantom in the bucks of their minds Hey take off that high school pin! Tuck it and the sweet memories that go with it away in the trunk back home We don’t wear it’s plain such up here Speaking of pins don't get contused this year or next about all this talk of hanging pins on gals take the advice oi a grandmother at the game— "If anything’s hungtng they can pin it themselves" Probably a fraternity can help but nut enough to you plenty make up for too much saertnee ot other items oi an education or too much of a summer’s savings either Another thing take your time choosing THE frat The campus is dotty with guys still trying to talk themselves into believing they are with the right bunch oi boys but knowing they’d rather be sitting at a rival hearthstone And when you pledge the one you ve 's sake keep your pointed at for head The easiest place to make a campus

tweeds sports coats or sweaters are popular college apparel Though some sports snirts are good informal items of a wardrooe regulation shirts with perhaps a Kent collar or two and maybe a couple of bow ties with an assortment of coarse weave ties are always good for campus wear you won't need a tux of your own lor a while yet if you're on the diplomatic side not for a good long while if you can’t afford it While grades are horribly horribly important to a successtul college career an activity or two along the line of your main interests will probably be as beneficial as enjoy- RULES The
