COLLEGES 'STEAL'
MUSIC FOR CAMPUS
TUNES, IS REPORT
Is all the originality that Amer
ican college men boast of merely
so much bluff and bushwah?
When you consider the American
college and university songs, you
would have to admit it, accord-
ing to "The Queen's English," ap
pearing in the August issue of
College Stories magazine. Most
of our American college songs are
"steals" not only tbe music, but
often, even the words, are close
copies of other songs.
Cornell's famed Alma Mater,
"Far Above Cayuga's Waters," is
not at all original. It was written
by H. S. Thompson, back in the
Civil war days, under the original
titlsr of "Annie Lisle," and has
.Hen rhnno-eri to "Amicl." Cornell
used toe music, aaaing us own
words. Then, Syracuse, Alabama,
Kansas, Swarthmore, Lehigh,
Greenville, Buchtel, have taken it
for their Alma Mater. Moravian,
Illinois, Missouri, Denver, and doz
ens of other colleges not to men
tion hundreds of high schools,
xhave written words to tho music,
Holyoke, Dickinson, Corn ell,
Emerson, Butler, Midland, Mon
tana state, and several dozen more
have utilized old folk songs to fur
nish music for various of their
college songs. Amherst, Iowa col
lege, University of Michigan, Uni
versity of Nebraska, and Univer
sity of Colorado, have used "Pi
rate's hCorus," by Balfe, for their
songs. "Fair Harvard, and "Old
Nassau are- both imported tunes
In fact, coVeges have fancied
almost everything from the "Rus
Kian National Hymn," "Columbia
the Gem of the Ocean," "Die
Wacht Rhine," "Marching Thru
Georgia," and others, thru "Man
date" and "Araby's Daughter,"
are among the songs utilized by
the major colleges lor their use.
Some might even have "The Star
Spangled Banner as their music,
However, the colleges have re
deemed themselves in their mod
ern football fight songs. Most of
these are original, both as to mu
sic and words. There are some
adaptations in thetje, but only in
the case of the smaller schools.
And the fraternity songs are, in
many cases, original. In fact,
they present the greatest original-
ity.
Not that all our college songs
are not original. Amherst's "Lord
Geoffrey Amherst," is tru-blue;
the "Washington and Lee swing"
is another, and Penn's "Red and
Blue" is all original.
And the "Stein Song."

COLLEGE GIRLS
MAKE FINE WIVES,
SO TIIEJOYS SAY
College boys like college girls
like them enough to marry them,
in preference to marrying any
other type of girl. The college girls
not only have "it," but they have
intelligence, they have a knowl
edge of the higher values of life;
they have a broader viewpoint,
have the same status as the col
lege man therefore, they will
make the better wives.
At least, that is the result of a
nationwide poll which is being
conducted by College Stories Mag
azine. Questionnaires sent to un
dergrads of American colleges and
universities brought forth replies
from every part of the country,
most of them frank, honest opin
ions that did not hesitate to point
to personal experience as a basis
for the answer. Many of the under
grads were planning to marry col
lege girls, and many others had
nothing but the highest praise for
the girls who are in our institu
tions of learning. Some pointed out
defects, and a few claimed that go
ing to college did a girl more harm
than good.
One of the answers that brought
the tkle tremendously in favor of
the coeds was from a statistical
hound, who showed that marriage
figures kept in the state of Kan
sas show the divorce rate to be one
to every five marriages among
non-college graduates, but only one
to every hundred among college
graduates. Therefore, the college
boy who marries a coed has ninety-nine
chances out of a hundred
of being right.
The poll, although not yet com
pleted, fhows a marked trend in
favor of the girls. It looks as
though the "Its" have it.
