THE IDES
OF MARCH
Beware the Ides of March!
Qo ahead and laugh if you want
to bat you'll be sorry. Julius Cae
sar laughed at the warning;, ac
cording to Shakespeare, and look
what happened to him. He got
trtmaelf made Into one of the nob
iest corpses that ever lived or
died. But everybody will agree
that there Is very little future as a
corpse. And practically nobocy
has an ambition to become one. A
corpse has no fun at all, unless he
la practiced on by physiological
classes in which case he can
chuckle to himself as the students
make stupid mistakes like calling
n ulna a fibula. Anyway, the
point we're trying to make is for
you to take heed of the warning
to beware of the Ides of March
and avoid the possibility of becom
Ing a cadaver like J. Caesar.
How to Beware.
Now that you have decided to
heed the warning, you may find
yourself asking yourself, "Just
what is an Ides of March? If
I am to beware of them, how can
I do It unlets I am able to recog
nize them face to face."
This is a moot question. So far
no Museum of Natural History has
been able to capture an Ides of,
March. Painters have not put!
down their conception of what an
Ides of March looks like. And
what is even more astonishing,
there are no candid camera shots
extant showing an Ides of March
In its natural habitat. Conse
quently, no one really knows ju.st
what the distinguishing character
istics of an Ides of March really
are. There is no chemical formula
known for it.
In fact, the only characteristic
noticeable about an Mes of March
is Mustering wind and rain, six
weeks tests, and the levying of in-
j come taxes.
J. " So far, you have the warning
and the ear marks of an Ides of
March. And now. if you want to be
pragmatical about the matter,
you want to know just why you
should be warned against the Ides
of March.
The Earmarks.
Well, If you know the charac
terises, you know why you
should beware the Ides of
March. Take the weather, for
ample. During the Ides of
March you should always wear
your roommate's clothes - be
cause the weather is so uncer
tain that an unexpected shower
or gust of wind It apt to damp
en your enthusiasm and clothes
or blow away your hat. If you
have on your roommate's pos
sessions and such things occur,
you hswe little to worry about.

SUBSIDIZATION

Many I'. S. educators are deeply
concerned over the competition
among American colleges and uni
versities for students
"It's getting to be big business "
the Carnegie Foundation for the
Advancement of Learning said in
effect recently.
Chief cause, said the University !
of Michigan's President Alexander i
G. Ruthven a fortnight ago. is that .
the nation's institutions of higher
education are seeking to outdo
each other in academic and scien
tific fields where such competition
not warranted.
"We do not need departments of
forestry in all our colleges. A few
such departments in schools op
erating near forejt regions would
sdecjuately cover the need. The
same applies to other studies," he
maintains.
