SEEN ON
THE CAMPUS.
There's quite a "doggy" situa
tion afoot these days at the Pi
Thi house. It seems that some
kind soul donated the gals six
very small and very cute Collie
pups which were received with
great joy. The question of keep
ing such a goodly number of ca
nines in one house has arisen,
however, and all are anxiously
awaiting the verdict from the
higher-ups. If the answer is "yes,"
all will be well; if it s "no," they'll
be in the market for homes for the
little rascals. If you'd like such
an animal, just call B-7543.
The eternal triangle fades clear
out of existence in the face of the
new situation with Mary Lien,
tlamma Phi Beta, and Dick Doty,
Bob Riddle. Jim Hosbuig, and Bob
Gannon, all Beta freshmen. Mary
goes pieknicking with Jim, takes
in the Kosmet show with Dick,
dates Bob Kiddle every now and
then (that is when he isn't driving
his bus I and goes to the Triad with
Bob Gannon. It would appear that
they are all just one big happy
family.
Never let it be said that woman
depends on man to get around.
Five enterprising sweet young
things had a plenty good hen pic
nic the other day. Gail Kvans,
Joan Eidnour. Rosamond Wigton,
Libbets Hendricks, and Jeanne
Rowe. not a bit disturbed by the
fact that their respective escorts
were out of town, had themselves
a time, and all of them swear it
was the most fun they had had in
years.
It seems that all is not as it
should be with Jane Eldridge
Jack Fnedebach combination
these days. The new young Romeo
of our popular D. G. Miss seems
to have "opened his mouth and
put his foot in it" with rather sur
prising consequences. At any rate
we were most surprised to see her
with "the old D. U. flame" Satur
day night, only a few hours after
making definite plans for the eve
ning with the aforementioned
Jack.
This Kosmet Klub stardom
seems to have its advantages, at
least with one of the more promi
nent young A. T. O.'s who is al
lowed to retain his masculinity "in
spite of it all." At any rate a cer
tain young lady who had been
breathlessly watching the play all
Monday night was heard to re
mark to the lucky lad after the
performance: "Oh, Donnie, I love
you so:"

Washington theater audiences,
during showings of news reels in
which political personages includ
ing presidential aspirants are fea
tured, never respond with ap
plause in the way isitors expect.
They applaud all political figures !
feebly, giving Roosevelt only
slightly more applause than they
give Hoover or Landon. Smith
draws a few scattered handclaps.
Talmage draws complete silence.
Borah and Knox have yet to flash
before local audiencrs on the
screen.
Probably the jea-son for the re
strained applause for Roosevelt,
here where political appointeees
abound, is that each man sitting
in a theater fears that if he ap
plauds loudly his neighbor will su
spect be nan a oreal ani miner
motive for bis pro-Roosevelt palm j
smackings, and not a sincere ad- j
miration for the president. j

Poe's Prose Poem 'Eureka'
Related to Theory of
Matter.
BURLINGTON. Vt. (ACP). Eln
stein's latest theory, that gravita
tion and electricity combine to
form solid matter, a development
of his theory of electrical bridges
between shells of space, has been
related to Edgar Allan Poe's prose
poem "Eureka" by Prof. Julian I.
Lindsay of the university or ver
mont.
Poe's work defined gravitation as
attraction, which he calls the
principle of the body, and electric
ity as repulsion of the principle of
the soul. No other principles exist,
savs Poe. All are referable to one
or the other of these two, which
stand for the material and the spir
itual principles of the universe.
Poe's Explanation.
"Discarding now the two equiV'
ocal terms" and to quote from
'Eureka' "let us adopt the more
definite experssion, 'attraction and
'repulsion.' The former is the body,
the latter the soul; the one Is the
material, the other the spiritual
principle of the universe. No other
principles exist. All pnenomena are
referable to one, or to the other, or
to both combined.
"So rigorously is this the case,
so thoroly demonstrable is it that
attraction and repulsion are the
sole properties thru which we per
ceive the universe in other words,
by which Matter is manifested to
Mind that, for all merely argu
mentative purposes, we are fully
justified in assuming that matter
exists only as attention and repul
sion that attraction and repulsion
are matter; there being no con
ceivable case in which we may not
employ the term 'Matter' and the
terms 'Attraction' and 'Repulsion'
taken together, as equivalent and,
therefore, convertible, expressions
In logic."
