Evidently feeling that the
Union booknook lacked the cos
mopolitan character and universal
appeal that it should have, some
ardent intellectualist has recently
blessed the brousing room with
the April issue of the "Young
Communist Review."
Within its gray and green cover
picturing the usual American cou
ple walking across the hillside are
mild attacks on Hitler and others
of that stripe, a potshot or two at
the American parties, a tribute to
a fellow communist youth who
died as leader of the Abraham
Lincoln brigade in Spain, conven
tion publicity, several love pats
for Stalin and the soviet big broth
ers, and an article boosting the
capitalistic World's Fair in New
lork while landing gentle body
blows to the management's mid
riff for its "discriminatory labor
policy" and its welcoming of the
iriendly exhibitions from Italy
and Japan.

to put on the most pretentious
open house exhibit ever under

Here students will be able to see
the making of castings similar to
the ones from which the median

neers will include a moving dio

Military engineers are preparing
an exhibit of model military
bridges. Agricultural engineers
will feature an electric brooder
which will care for a family of live
chickens, and the architectural en

of the members of the "Young
Communist League" which period
ically gathers together these
scrapes of mild sarcasm, bits of
sincere concern for the felfare of
the masses and Negroes, and much
of the familiar trivality of youth,
and publishes it in a magazine, is
clearly revealed by a glance at
the contents page. If thers is
anything in a name the editor
might strike deep terror in fascist
hearts with his "handle," Joseph
Starobin, but over two-thirds of
the authors are plain, everyday
Englishmen or Germans that can
not boast even a pinkish name.
Franklin, Green, Ross, Winston,
Williams, Robinson and so they
run with only an occasional Vrbel,
Anton, Graubard or Cardozo. And
this last has the healthy American
air that only a justice on the Su
preme Court can give a name.
One article proposes that the
Y. C. L. (Young Communist
league) revamp its declaration of
principles in the direction of a
clear, outspoken and short state
ment so that "members" would
not need to confess with embar
rassment that they had "hardly
looked at the constitution for
ages."
Governor "Butcher Boy."
Fred Fine accuses American
political zoology with a major
error in his fragment, "The Ele
phant Forgets to Remember." In
it a "fair-haired boy of the steel,
packing, and railroad interests
that promised all things to all
men" is tailed "Butcher Boy,"
even tho his state difnifies him
with the title of governor. His
statements are pictured as "hon
eyed hypocrises. Fascists are
"gnawing holes" as all rats are
wont to do in their spare time
and the Trotskites are found,
without the aid of facteriologists
or even a microscope, to be mic
robes. Fine hopes that the people
have been "immunized" against
