Preparedness
To the Editor:
I note with surprise and regret
the agitation whub is making itself
felt concerning the n ilitary training
in the University. It is arousing. I
feel, a great deal more attention
than it deserves, being, as it is, fos
tered and so obviously by red
propagandists. You will recall that
Paul Blanchard, who spoke heve last
year for the League of Industrial
Democracy, was responsible for the
agitation, originally.
The idea of world peace at this
moment is not only impossible but
insane. How can we have world
peace when all the other nations of
the world are in arms, and ready to
attack any armless nation at any
moment? We know for a fact that
France and England have no special
liking for America, and have large
armies and air forces. Also Japan.
I do not jingoistically point toward
the fact that attacks by these nations
are inevitable, as do some alarmists
but I do say that, considering the
circumstances, it would not be at
all a bad idea to be prepared.
It is our moral obligation to sup
port the Morrill Land Grant Act,
which has, to a large extent, made
possible the growth of the Univer
sity to its present size. I got more
moral and physical good, and more
mental discipline, out of my mill
tary training than out of any other
of my subjects.
The idea that United States should
set the example for world peace is
absurd. We can, of coarse, main
tain a peaceful policy, but there is
no need absolutely to disarm until
the other nations show some defi
nite intention.
My counsel to the winners would
be to go to Wisconsin, where train
ing is optional, or to Russia, where
they can give vent to all the com
munists, destructive yowlings that
they choose.

"Tim" Corey, captain of the foot

spring practice, to begin after the
spring vacation.
The Delta Tau Delta five won the
interfraternity basketball champion
ship for 1918 by winning from the
Sig Alph's by a score of 12 to 8.
The first half was slow, then 6 to
2 in favor of the Delta. The tour
nament was one of the best under
taken and the games showed remark
able speed.

exhibition showed that the University
was doing a great work for physical
education. Following the nroeram

The Iowa State Agricultural Col
lege at Ames sprang a surprise on
Nebraska by winning all but one of
the matches in wrestling. The Ames
team lost its first match to Iowa, a
team that Nebraska defeated, and
this made the Nebraska downfall all
the more surprising.

much more able to select better men
men who had made good in school
and proved their worth.
"It would eradicate the mis-fits
every fraternity gets now and then,"
he stated. "Sometimes a fraternity
takes a man on snap judgement, dur
ing the first few days of rush week,
and is afterwards! disappointed to
find that he is the wrong man. This
makes trouble in the fraternity and
the school. These differences would
tend to be reduced, to a considerable
degree, if men had a longer time in
which to become acquainted with the
freshmen."
Become Center of Power
Dr. Pool also feels that under this
system the fraternity would have a
better chance of becoming what it is
supposed to be a center of tremen-

dous power for the furtherance of
the better class of activities in the
school. Fraternities would run more
smoothly because the men would be
picked with more care, and accord
ingly they would be mutually inter
ested in each other's plans and wel
fare, and would really strive to de
velop an all-around scholarship.
He further pointed out that men
coming to get pins would not be
able to do so under this system. A
good many men of this type ordi
narily drop out at the end of their
first semester or year. The men
coming back the second year would
be those who came because they bad
a definite notion of what they were
going to do, not because they wanted
to join a fraternity. The quality of

men taken in under these circumstan
ces would be improved.
Easier for New Stndenta
Students themselves, Dr. Pool
showed, would have a better chance
to acquaint bemselves with what the
fraternities were like and what the
stood for. Now, freshmen are whirl
ed around from one place to anoth
er, each fraternity trying to ring a
decision from the man before the
others can get get at him.
In concluding, Dr. Pool said em
phatically, "The greatest argument in
favor of mid-semester pledging is the
fact that it would give the fraterni
ties a chance to pick their men with
greater care and so enable them to
get a really select group of men."
Reflections of
FASHION
spring hats chic and becoming.
Beautiful springlike colors, smart shapes, fresh crisp
materials, combine to make the new models most attrac
tive. Fine straws such as Ballibuntl, Bangkok, Visca, and silks
such as taffeta, Faille, and belting ribbon are most popu
lar materials.
The Gigolo, the off-the-face style, the soft crush shape,
the beret and the tam are equally popular.

A fulcrum for every
modern Archimedes
"al I VE me a fulcrum and I will move the earth"
Vjef said Archimedes. Too bad that he lived
twenty-two hundred years too soon.
For you modern followers of Archimedes, you
, . men who apply his well known principles in the
study of mechanical engineering, the fulcrum is
ready. If a part in helping the earth to move
appeals to you, look for your fulcrum in the
communication art "
A world of possibilities opens up here for the
man whose bent is mechanical. Distances shrink
lecftuse mechanical engineers have found how to
draw well-nigh every bit of air out of a repeater
tul. A million telephones are made and the
millionth is like the first because mechanical inge
nuity has shown the way. Quantity production
in a great telephone plant calls for constant im
provement in meclianical technique.
Ever day is a day of new facts, new things,
new achievements by mechanical and electrical
engineers. Nothing stands still. Here the world
