This is the story of a freshman
in the search of knowledge. And,
like Ulysses of the ancient saga,
he found himself confused and en
tangled in his noble quest.
Administration building was the
goal when the freshman "em
barked" from the ouiet sanctuary
of the union, and after 15 minutes
of futile wandering over the face
of the campus, he finally reached
Bancroft school where the janitor
offered him much neeOed help.
Confused by the gratitude of our
hero, the janitor told him to go
two blocks west and due south
until he came across a sign which

As usual at the first of the year there are

that "when the present world crisis is past, America
will need trained leadership for the great task of
reconstruction."
Even among the many young men with college
degrees or with one or two years of college behind
them, who have been drafted for army service, edu
cation has been found to be a great asset The men
with more education are advanced rapidly and put
into responsible army positions even when they be
gin as privates. It is felt that generally the man
with more education adapts himself to changed con
ditions more readily and understands more fully the
necessity for training than the man with less edu
cation. Those young men who are enrolled In the
reserve officers training courses of the university
should realize this most fully because they are be
ing fitted for responsible positions in military serv
ice, so vital to national defense.
This bit of advice is being given all over the
country this year as the war situation becomes
more acute. It is: "Get as much education as you
can."

But when he arrived there, the
boys lounging about the steps of
the Phi Delt house informed him,
after some consideration, that he
had not followed directions.
"What did they make this cam

At last the senior of '45 arrived,
only to find he must next venture
out in search of the coliseum. De

were of little help. The man in
charge of the information desk at
the state house told him that he
would tell him how to get back
to the coliseum if he would , go
thru the capitol first.
Thus the story ends happily,
though, as do all good sagas, for
toward the end of the hectic day
the freshman found a beauteous
damsel who knew the shortest
way to the "corn crib." And to
himself he vowed, "Tomorrow I'll
have the problem licked. By gad,
I'll get a compass."

Behind the News
By David Thompson
The crushing attack on Leningrad, prompted by
Der Fuhrer's command to take the city whatever
the cost, has begun with the storming of the city's
outer defenses. An Important victory, such as the
capture of one of Russia's key cities, is a near
necessity for the German army if civilian morale
at home is to be kept up. This has to be achieved
before the early Russian winter sets in and stale
mates the war on this far northern front. In spite
of the impressive territorial gains made by the
German mechanized forces, not one of the four
great cities has yet fallen to the invaders.
Another reason for the German desire to take
Leningrad in such a hurry is the rumoured Finnish
withdrawal from the conflict now that she has re
gained all the territory lost to Russia In the Russo
Finnlsh war of 1940. Withdrawal of Finland before
the fall of the city would withdraw the northern
plneer of the attack on the city, and thus prevent
its encirclement.
The major theatre of war will be driven into
southern Russia by the approaching winter. Ger

"No more war if women ran governments?"
According to a surprising story from the Daily Cali

international politics because they talk more."
The story was based on the premise that when
people stop talking they begin fighting. This fact
was taken from a study of emotional behavior in
the home and in the nursery school made by Cali
fornia U's Institute of Child Welfare. Girls were
found to have the advantage in language, and Pro
fessor Catherine Landreth, in charge of the survey,
declared that "this might lead to a greater use by
boys of direct action in preference to speech."
