those sturdy men who failed to
let the very much below zero j
weather drive them from their
customary cots on their open-air
sleeping porch. These thirteen
"wonder men," determining to
prove their accomplishment in n
way that could not easily be for
gotten, valiantly strode out of
doors in the extremely arctic
weather, and more extremely ab
breviated clothes, and the most
extreme of early hours in the
morning, for the purpose of hav

GEORGE H. DENNY, President.
UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA.
In my judgment the R. O. T. C.
organization has meant a great
deal to the University of Alabama.
It has improved the discipline. It
has given valuable physical train
ing to our students. It has bene
fited every student in the organ
ization in various ways. It has
taught the students the value of
promptness and obedience to
higher authority. It has con
tributed to the spirit of the stu
dent body.
ALEXANDER G. RUTHVEN,
President.
UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN
I have been favorably impressed
with the influence of our R. O. T.
C. unit on the campus. In my
opinion, the fact that the work is
purely voluntarly has done much
for the unit It has meant that
only the men interested have
elected the work and the moral
of the unit has thus been high. 1
have observed that the pride which
the men have taken in the unit,
the type of men who have enlisted,
and their deportment have oper-

T think that 1hr Ttroeont course
offers considerable value for phy
sical improvement, development of
co-ordination, organization and
perhaps has some disciplinary
value. For a number of years I
was an athletic director and foot
ball coach. I am satisfied that
regular drill is more beneficial for
building health and physique than
strenuous games like football
played with considerable danger
and always under great nervous
strain.

Lynde Wins 50, 100, 220
Dashes; Ledger Reads
Three Out of Four.
Sweeping seven out of eight
first places and five second places,
Nebraska swimmers gave Bplash
ers of Carleton college a thorough
ducking Tuesday afternoon at the
m cowseum poo'-
1 n l H vinuiy
i3 record of three
victories in four
tarts and
non - conference
ledger. They lost
' ; lo Minnesota by
the count of 57
to 17 in the first
1 tangle of the
season.
i Glyndon Lynde,
I
Krvim ti. Jrmni R'fi Six cham
pion in the r0, 100, and 220 yard
dashes was again high point man,
dragging down his customary 12
points in the ."SO, and 100 yard free
style dashes and swimming on the
medley relay team. Ho hasn't
suffered defeat in the 100 yard
distance yet, and has bowed in the
Ml only to Hudson of Minnesota.
He has been high point man of
both teams in every meet this
year.
Ben Rimmerman was second
high with eight points, garnered in
the diving and .r0 yard free style
events. Tops for the Northfield
wn was Tascoe, earning seven
points.
Backstroke Close.
The most closely contested bat
tle in the meet was the 100 yard
back stroke. Church and Tascoe
of Carleton opposed Ralph Lud
wick and Jack Gavin of the Husk
ers in this distance. There wasn't
more than two yards distance be
tween the leader and the trailer
at any time during this race. Pas
coe finally pulled ahead at the end
followed by Gavin, Church, and
Ludwick in the order named.
The 100 yard breast stroke was
also very close. Bob Thornton of
Nebraska led all the way. but in
the last lap Stubstad of Carleton
almost overtook him, coming from
several yards behind to finish al
most in a dead heat with him.
Thornton edged him out by a few
scant feet, according to the
judges.
.1 Under Record.
Lynde took his two events with
case, going one-tenth of a second
under the Big Six record to win
the 50 yard dash in 24.5 seconds as
compared to the official time of
24.6. This is the second time this
vcar that he has lowered the con
ference record, having bettered it
by four-tenths of a second in the
Kansas meet in the time of 24.2.
The undefeated medley relay
team again came thru to win again
this time by almost a length of the
75 foot pool, which was 3.3 seconds
under the interscholastic high
school record of 3 :26.6. This time
was not comparable with Big Six
times as the length was 150 yards
while the customary Bix Six dis
tance for the race is 300 yards.
Nebraska's next meet will be a
return engagement with Kansas,
i whom they defeated 67 to 17 in
their first tangle. Carleton will go
to Iowa to tackle Grinncll tomor

FORM COMMISSION 10
AID SCHOOL TEACHERS
Offer Legal, Financial Help
To Educators Deprived
Of Positions.
NEW YORK. (ACP). Formation
of a Commission on Educational
Freedom to lend financial and
legal aid to school teachers and
other educators who ai-e dismissed
because of their political, economic
or social beliefs, has been an
nounced by Frederick L. Radefer,
executive secretary of the Pro
gressive Education Association of
Columbia university Teachers Col
lege. This commission, the culmina
tion of eighteen months of study
and research by the Association,
will endeavor to protect those
teachers whose jobs are endanger
ed thru discrimination and whose
rights to aeadtmtc freedom are
threatened.
"Every year numbers of able
and forward looking teachers are
dismissed and many more are
threatened into silence or confor
mity," Dr. Redefer declared in
making the announcement, adding
that educators must view with
"deep concern" any move to pre
vent teachers from expressing
themselves openly, or criticizing
the social order from any angle.
Other educators agree. In ex
plaining the need of the organiza
tion. Dr. William H. Kilpatrick,
Columbia professor of education,
pointed out:
"The years just ahead will chal
lenge American education beyond
anything hitherto known. Our
democratic civilization will stand
or fall with the thinking done by
the American people on our social,
economic and political problems.
We who teach must help the rising
generation to yet higher standards
of thinking. To this end we must
he free to 'present, to investigate
and to criticize any position in re
gard to the social order.'
"But many in our nation will op
pose this freedom, a few selfishly,
the most because their thinking is
traditional and inert. Every effort
will be made by busybody pressure
groups to prevent freedom or dis
cussion in our schools. The high
name of patriotism will be invoked
in behalf of obscurantism and
demagoguery.
Duty to country and profes
sional honor both demand that we
fight to preserve our freedom of
teaching and to protect our fellows
against persecution."

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Feb. 25
(CNS.) A wisp of color In the
sun's corona this week beckoned
to scientists who will follow it in
the spring to the ancient town of
Ak-Nulak, In the southern ranges
of the Siberian Ural mountains.
The color may be evidence of a
new clement, unknown on earth
and possibly only apparent during
an eclipse of tho sun.
Armed with the most highly
specialized instruments, scientists
of Harvard university and Massa

will study the spectrum of th
solar corona from the Russian

Tentatively labeled "coronium."
