overjoyed at the new frankness and independence
is much harder to stick to the proverbial "straight
shown in college men and women. At any rate it
and narrow" today than formerly. Increased temp
tations, added regulations and restrictions in some
things, greater freedom in others, go to make a
high moral code hard to follow.
This candor so highly praised among students is
offset by a spirit of hypocrisy overrunning the
campus. These hypocrites do not practice their sin
cere beliefs. They justify their actions by fallacious
reasoning. Their Ideals are eventually crushed be
neath a sham and a falseness that they are fed
by older friends, that they swallow and assimilate
as they digest food.
Thus many freshmen have been completely dis
illusioned concerning college life. They nave found
widespread a number of undesirable practices which
they rationalize rather than transcend. In this man
ner ideals are lowered while students think they are
merely broadening their outlook on life. Nothing
is more Inane. Seeking to extirpate the narrowness
of their vision, they convince themselves lofty ideals
are In the realm of the unattainable and not worth
striving for.
gEFOP.E LONG they feel no twinge of conscience
in guzzling a tub full of beer or gulping down a
pint of alcohol. They go out and try to neck on every
date, believing the girl expects it and treating the
whole affair as a business proposition. And the
coeds, feeling men expert it, follow the lead they
have set. This is the Ireedom and frankness of spir
it for which young people have been lauded.
These ideas, however, are not universal in their
prevalence. There are college men who believe pro
miscuous "mugging" lowers self respect and any
respect their girl friends may hold for them. There
are college girls who know a reputation established
on ability to neck Is a reputation on a false foun
dation that soon will crumble.
Personal Ideals of the highest sort, strengthen
ed by resolute integrity and moral courage, are nec
essary if one is to emerge from four years of uni
versity with the same fineness of spirit and
with an exalted set of ethical values unscathed.

FIREWORKS
JEFUSING to permit the faculty committee on
student organizations to sidetrack the resolution
to abolish minor class ofifcers, the Student council
Wednesday night took a forward step in demanding
that action be taken at the next meeting of the
committee and pointing out the desirability of doing
away with these useless positions which serve only
os political plums.
If the Student council is to assume a dominant
rule In the affairs of student government it must
reiterate its convictions until they are accepted. If
it permits the faculty committee to twiddle thumbs
and sit idle when proposals recommended by the
council are brought before it, there :s itist reason
for believing that the Student Council is not fulfill
ing its purpose on the university campus. The fire
and determination shown by the council in its reso
lute stand taken yesterday deserve commendation.
This representative body must further assert
its position if the faculty committee ignores its de
mands or defeats its recommendation. There is at
present true cause to question the representative
qualities of the Student council, an undesirable sit
uation which will be remedied under the proportion
si representation plan. But on matters of a non-

"HOT" DATES vs. INDIVIDUALISM.
To the editor:
The discussion on college women seems to be
waxing warm and furious. The seekers of Individual
girls are asked if they believe everything they
preach; asked to try and help the women live up to
some of these ideals that are advocated.
Why do you women suppose that men appar
ently ask for some of the things that you think they
do? Do you suppose it is because they really want
them? Do you suppose that they really want a girl
to be that way? Or, do you suppose that they ap
parently demand certain things from girls because
they think that Is the only way that they in turn
can "get by."
If it is either of the first two, the men are all In
herently bad: if it is the last they are just as
hypocritical as the woman. We men admit that we
are to be criticized, but we contend that our con
duct is brought about because we have been led to
believe that the girls demand certain things from
us. So much in support of the men.
To answer J. S. on another point: She says that
a girl must either "neck" or she must smoke and
drink. If a girl has so little personality that she
must engage . in one of several disgusting habits,
she had better go back to the farm. Must there be
an alternative, girls? Surely you are not so dull that
you must do one of several things that you claim
are revolting to you in order to have dates.
If you cannot find a man who does not demand
such things from you, you have not looked far
enough; for you can rest assured that they do exist,
even in this institution that is swarmed by sheep
and types.
As a matter of experiment, the writer dis
cussed the subject with representatives of four sor
orities after reading the article by J. S. All of the
girls admitted that they necked; some admitted that
they smoked and drank. However, none of them did
any of thre three because they liked to, or because
they believed in it.
They all had the mistaken idea that men de
mand it of them. We would like to reiterate the
position taken by two writers last week. Be your
selves, girls. Men honor the girl who does what she
believes, no matter how they may act. The girl who
Is individualistic is respected; the girl who is only
a type has plenty of dates, it seems, but she will
not last. P. J.
WEARY OF IT ALL?
To the editor:
The men have railed at the women, and the
women at the men. Student Pulse letters have indi
cated a mutual disgust for smoking and drinking
and necking, and men and women seem thirsty for
individualism in their friends.
I don't believe the suggested faults are univer
sal on our campus or any other and I believe this
because my own experience has proved it. This ar
ticle is not a criticism; it is intended as a sugges
tion. J. S., why is it that with all your disgust for
the men with whom you associate, with your weari
ness of it all, you stay in it? From what you have
said, your "world" has become to you sickening
and repulsive. Why drift with it? You say that if
you try to be above it you're branded as a wet
blanket and a poor sport.
What of it? Do you give two darns whether
you are a poor sport in the minds of people whose
standards you hold in contempt? Their judgment is
not fit for you don't use it. Did you ever see any
one whom you admired, who was as you should like
to be, who was a "good sport" or a "neat mama"
in the eyes of that beastly crowd?
Why not take a chance ? Put yourself above the
life you abhor; be a poor sport and a wet blanket
and be a heroine among those yoj admire. Look
around you for awhile and see if you find a group
of people who are working for better things. And
then hook up with that group. Put yourself into
something bigger, not smaller, than yourself.
Get into a new world! I know some girls who
have done it. And I'd like to see some more. I like
'em. We all like 'em. M. N.
