Student Opinion ...
Members of the current student council and potential
council members who may be preparing to enter the spring
election have an adequate supply of thought-provoking and
action-stimulating information availablle, now that results
of the council polt of the student body have been tabulated.
The poll, which was taken in ballot form at Chancellor
Gustavson's address on UNESCO during a first semester
convocation, indicates that students are in favor of push
ing ahead with several proposals which the council has had
: under advisement.
Included on the ballot
parking situation, student
senate, the need for an all-university chapel and the formu
lation of a senior week which would replace final examina
tions for seniors.
Topping the list in response was the question concern
ing an all-university chapel. The fact that this question was.
first on the ballot might have some influence on the 1195
' students who answered this question, but irregardless of
the reason for answering, university students voted almost
two to one in favor of an all-university chapel.
And the response did not slacken too much when the
question of personal support of the chapel -was asked. Over
700 students of the 1251 who returned questionnaires de
clared that they would contribute to a chapel building fund.
Other questions were not neglected, however, for stu
dents were overwhelmingly in favor of student representa
tion on the faculty senate and favored establishment of a
senior week which would replace final exams for seniors.
With these expressions of sentiment established, the
student council has a definite guide to future action. Pro
jects which it has been considering have been approved by
a thinking group of students, students who were suffici
ently interested to appear at the all-school convocation and
present their wishes on the council balllots.
We hope the council will

Dear Studeats:
The clothing drive here on the
campus is over and in a few
days clothing gathered here will
be on its way to Europe, to give
a measure of protection to some
who might otherwise have to do
without. Whether or not the re
cipients of this donation rise spon
taneously and become spokesmen
for our efforts against Commu
nism I wouldn t want to say.
But this I will say, I am glad
that there are still those who
will arise to support a humani
tarian effort.
It is to those who responded
to this call that we direct this
letter. We also want to thank
Mr. Lake, our Union director.
for his fine cooperation. Thanks
are due also to Doc Secbrd, presi
dent of Alpha Sigma Phi, who
drove all of his pledges and ac
tives out into the night to take.
up the collections of the organ
ized houses. To paraphrase
George M. Cohan I have only
this to say in conclusion: Those
who receive this clothing will
thank you, and I thank you.
Yours,
JERRY BLATCHFORD,
Chairman of Uni-Vets clothing
drive.
To The Editor:
To all Ag College students and
Ag College Cafeteria administra
tors:
This not intended as an un
fair attack on the cafeteria, but
meiely what I consider and be
lieve a fair example of other
unfavorable criticism, either
voiced or silent, which are in the
minds of most Ag College stu
dents who ate their meals in it.
it.
My criticism is this:. Just what
are the facts and figures be
hind the very conservative at
titude of the cafeteria's counter
employes? Are these employes
in fear of being called down for
giving reasonable servings of
food? If not, then just what is
the purpose of so carefully, and
quite often, scantily measured
food servings? Perhaps it is to
save food in order that high
wages may be paid employes, or
because the foods and nutrition
building has not been completely
paid for to date, but available
evidence to support these excuses
is obviously lacking.
Unless there are good reasons
for the present situation as de
scribed above, I am at a loss to
know why there is a decidedly
marked difference between the
size of food servings at the Ag
College cafeteria and those in the
campus line on the city campus.
I sincerely hope these com
ments and questions draw re
sponse from other thoroughly un
satisfied students on Ag campus,
and that they caur. the advious
administrative officials to issue
statements in their defense.

A Thought
According to Wordsworth, "The
world is too much with us, late
and soon, getting and spending
we lay waste our powers."
Of late, figures have been
quoted stating that 85 percent of
college students are neurotic.
Surely this indicates a serious
lack in the lives of the acclaimed
"highest 10 percent of the na
tion." It would seem that we are
too concerned with our own
selves, our own wants, and our
own world: "getting and spend
ing we lay waste our powers."
Sense of Values.
In the scramble for tangible
objects, the proof of success in
our materialistic world, we over
look the possibility of the value
of intangible objects and in so
doing, we lose our sense of values.
It is when we no longer have the
power or desire to discriminate
between good for the individual
and good for the group, that we
and neuroticism.
In this ensuing week the stu
dents of this campus will have
the opportunity of evaluating
their aims and beliefs, for taster
is traditionally a time of new life.
We. as the prospective leaders
in a world of chaotic upheaval,
owe to ourselves and to all peo
des of this turbulent earth the
chance to redetermine our goals.
Privacy Required.
A Lincoln minister recently
stated. "Jesus went apart to es
cape going to pieces." This signi
fies the necessity in His life of
periods of calm and privacy to
insure progress in the best direc
tion. If each individual would re
order his day so as to have ten
minutes alone with himself and
his thoughts, he would under
stand how "going 'apart' can help
one from 'going to pieces.' "
