PROHIBITION
BRINGS VOTE
National Student Federation
Organizes Poll Of
College
FIRST VOTE IS "DRY"
(New Student Service)
The rrohibition question is the
latest excitement on the American
college campus. The newly formed
National Student federation moves
into the academic scene with a nation-wide
student poll on the sub
ject aided and abetted by the
Harvard Crimson and Harvard Li
beral Club.
The first college to take the offi
cial Student Federation vote was
Connecticut Wesleyan university,
which "went dry" with the close vote
of 180 for and 177 against prohibi
tion. Previously Ynle and Cornell
took independent polls that regis
tered a decidedly wet sentiment. In
the meantime officials, professors,
students are hazarding conflicting
guesses as to the efficacy of prohibi
tion. Carnegie Head Against Act.
Carnegie Institute : President
Samuel Harden Church denounced
the prfsent prohibition enforcement
because it brought a myrid of stu
dent scofflaws, because of the effect
upon campus morals of employing
students to "spy out" evidence
against classmates. His testimony
precipitated a near riot obliging him
publicly to retract his statement that
"carrying flasks was a universal cus
tom at college dances.
Beloit Uooerclassmen Instruct
Freshmen on College Traditions
(By New Student Service)
One hundred fifty upperclassmen
were grouped in one section of the
bleachers on the deserted athletic
field of Beloit College. It was almost
midnight and conversation was sub
dued in token of the impoanco of
the occasion. Hands fumbled ner
vously with home made paddles
pressed tightly between closed knees.
Below in the athletic field huddled
the freshmen, guilty culprits that
they were.
Three speakers huranged the noc
turnal kankaroo court in succession.
The freshmen were derelict in sacred
duties. Taking advantage of the ad
ministration ban on paddling they
had put aside their green caps and
had been very naughty freshies in
deed. Something must be done for
"Beloit cannot live without its tradi
tions." It was up to the freshmen to
carry them out for the next four
years. Alumni depend on underclass
men to transmit the flaming torch,
trimmed, polished and almost as good
as new, to succeeding generations.
President Stops "Party"
After the speeches the freshmen
were lined in double columns and
told to assume a receptive posture.
Paddles r-ttled aloft. There was no
other sound, except the thump thump
of a frightened taxpayer hurrying to
turn in a police alarm.
Suddenly a freshman cried
'Trexy'a coming." Immediately Pres
ident Oscar Maurer stepped up, ac
companied by T. R. Faville, member
of the Board of Trustees, and Dean
Alderman. And three quick-witted
upperclassmen managed to get in a
half dozen lusty thwacks while the
president cleared his throat.
"Beloit Spirit cannot be gained by
beating," the president said. "When I
was an underclassman, we had just
as' good spirit as we have now and it
was not necessary to pound it into
us." The speech which followed was
later declared to be his "most ve
hement and effective."
Voices buzzed, speeches were
made, and many suggestions volun
teered. After a whispered confer
ence the freshmen fervently promis
ed to enforce the traditions. Then:
"A motion to adjourn followed and
the entire essemblage of freshmen
and upperclassmen, left the field,
singing and fraternizing, without re
gard to class distinction.

"The main purpose of the conven
tion," Miss Smith pointed out, "war
to retest the place of the Y. W. C.
A. in the college community and in
the world at large. It was to enable
us to evaluate our spiritual activity
and the relationship of our organi
zations in furthering Christian spirit

creased at Yale since prohibition,
backing up his statements by point
ing out the large majority which had
voted yes to the specific question "Do
you consider that drinking at Yale
has increased since prohibition?"
University of Rochester: A major

that drinking at that institution has
been decreasing.

large is often too apt to accept hu
man nature at face value and believe
that all good is in living the law of
God. Such an extreme leads one to
foreet that sacrifice must go hand in
hand with love, however all love is
not sacrifice nor is all sacrifice love.
"The question as to how one
finds the fullness of life was dis
cussed to some length," Miss Smith
stated. "Is the spiritual power, the
fullness of life, or is it the intellec
tual stimulus found in the moral
struggle which awards such? Does
college provide all the necessary ex
perience or is the Y. W. C. A. the
furtherment of spiritual growth?
These questions were discussed at
length in the various discussion
groups."
Keynote is "Search-Find-Use"
The keynote as expressed by Miss
Leslie Blanchard, ex-secretary of the
national convention of the Y. W. C.
A., was "Search-Find-Use." These
three, she declared, is a combination
which with one another would bring
about a full realization of Christ.
"Search" for all good, such searcr
calling for sacrifice, spiritual integ
rity, and moral right; "find" as the
result of the search and then "use"
with every idea for the betterment
of mankind.
Alva Erickson led the service
and special music was furnished by
the Vesper choir.
Cleopatra Ross, assisted by the
choir, sang the theme of Jacob's Ladder.
DEAN LER0S8IGH0L
ATTENDS UBETIM
Nebratkaa Serves as President of
Association of Collegiate
Business Schools
Dean J. E. LeRossignol has recent
ly returned from Hanover, New
Hampshire, where he attended the
oio-hth nnnual meeting of the Ameri
can Association of Collegiate Schools
of Business. Dean LeRossignol serv
ed as president of the association
during the past year, and reports
this year's meeting as one of the
most successful in the history of the
nrcanization. He was also a member
of the executive committee and pre
sided as chairman at the opening
meeting.
The association has as its members,
all the leading collegiate business
schools of the country, thirty-three
of which were represented at this
year's gathering. Canada sent rep
resentatives from McGill University,
and Queen's University. The Uni
versity of Prague located in Czecho
slovakia was also represented.
A pleasing feature of the three
day meeting was a complimentary
dinner given to the association by
Dartmouth College, the host of this
year's meeting. The address at this
dinner was given by President E. M.
Hopkins of Dartmouth and sounded
the full success of the year's work.
The association elected as a suc
cessor to President LeRossignol;
nn W. n. Donham of the Harvard
College of Business Administration.
Cambridge, Massachusetts was se
lected as the place of the next year s
meeting. Harvard University, which
has recently expanded its college of
business by means of large endow
ments, will act as host to the repre
sentatives. Dean LeRossignol stated that al
though his visit to the East was pri
marily to attend the meeting of the
association, he was also in search of
a professor to fill a vacancy in the
business administration department
here. The vacancy will be caused by
the leaving of E. T. Grether, profes
sor of advertising' and sales manage
ment, who will take up a similar po
sition in tha University of California

not The idea of the Y. W. C. A.,
the community corporation, and the

viewpoint in mind."
