Pamphlet explains necessary
factors for success in college
Exams are about over
and the social side of life again
takes the spotlight as we learn
of buffet dinners that are planned
for Sunday night at the Phi Psi
and Alpha Chi houses. While
speaking of the Alpha Chis we
might mention that they seem
to hive a busy weekend in store
for them. Friday night they have
an hour dance with the Betas. One
couple who will be doing most of
dancing together consists of Polly
Jo Taylor and Beta Harry Rin
der (the lad who showed so much
Delta Gamma spirit a few weeks
ago when he went down to KU
for the installation of a new DG
chapter). Weekend activities also
include initiation and banquet at
the Lincoln hotel for the Alpha
Chi pledges.
In Closing
I'll pass on to yon a few little Dfilfl
items nai a little Dira told me
(which concern) fact to the effect
that Theta Betty Mae Clopp is
now wearing the Sig Alpha pin of
erstwhile Carranova Leonard Ja
cobson, that Alex Mills has a very
interested eye on Theta cutie Jean
ette Emmert, and that Phi Gam
Jerry Thompson has lost his pin.
This may or may not have some
connection with the fact that he
has been seeing a great deal of
Julia Gurley the last few weeks.
A rather unusual deal occurred
last week in the Delta Sig house
when the true brotherly spirit was
displayed by Joe Flammang who
let fraternity brother Don Sulli
van take out best girl. Gloria Sul
livan, Ohio. That is all for today:
see the new Awagwan for the juicy
tidbits.
Onward to Omaha
is the cry of Pi Phis Susan
Shaw, Anne Kinder, and Mary
Louise Simpson who are going to
see -There Shall Be No Night."
Which seems to one of the nicest
ways of recovering from six week
exams that we have heard of so
far.

fifths of the students now in school
believe they will return for at least
one more year's study. This study
should not be interpreted to mean
that college enrollments will be de
pleted by 11 percent. This figure
is merely an indication as to how
much the defense program is liable
to affect the college male.
The exact percentages, as found
by the surveys, through interviews
taken on the scores of campuses
participating in the poll, are as fol
lows: Will volunteer or be drafted. 11.2'J
Will return to college 79.2
Will do neither 9.6
(This tabulation does not include
the 6 percent who are undecided.)
Students oppose army bill.
Slightly more than a year ago,
in February, 1940, the surveys
found 81 percent of the nation's
college students opposed to pas
sage of a bill by congress requiring
every able-bodied young man 20
years of age to enter a year's
training in the army or navy.
Exactly one year previous 60
percent of the college men de
clared they would not volunteer if
the U. S. went to war for reasons
other than the defense of the coun
try, but in October, 1939, only 58
percent said they would not volun
teer if the U. S. went to war
against Germany to protect Eng
land and France.
Lutherans hear Patterson
Gamma Delta, association of
students belonging to the Luth
eran synodical conference, will
meet on Sunday for a fellowship
lunch at 6 p. m. in room 316 of
the Union. A discussion period be
ginning at 7 p. m., and led by Dr.
Patterson of the philosophy de
partment, will follow the lunch.
What does it take to be a suc
cess in college? According to
"What It Takes to Make Good in
College," a pamphlet released last
week by the public affairs com
mittee, there are four dependent
factors: purpose, social adjust
ment, ability to make decisions
and sensitivity.
These characteristics, the article
pointed out, are affected by many
things, the most important being:
home influences. Students whose
parents were moderately inter
ested in their affairs, rather than
indifferent or oversolicitous, were
the best adjusted group in col
lege. "A curious indication of good
home adjustment," the pamphlet
stresses, "is a liking for the sub
ject of English. Narrow reading
interests seemed to go with poor
home adjustment."
Personality measurements.
Personality measurements show
that "frequency of attendance at
movies seven or more times a
month was a sign of poor person
ality, as was frequency of indul
gence in card games."
"Bull sessions" were also an in
dication, with better-adjusted stu
dents being the ones who partici
pated in large sessions and the
less well adjusted participating in
small groups.
Good health laid success.
Among those things listed in the
pamphlet which aid students to
make good are: safeguarding
health, participating in athletics,
Fisheries experts conferred re
cently at Harvard university on
efforts to increase the numbers of
lobsters in Atlantic coastal waters.
X-ray photographs of starving
insect larvae have given Univer
sity of California scientists a com
plete record of the process of star
vation. Sarah Lawrence college has re
ceived an unrestricted grant of
$35,000 from the Carnegie corporation.

Orfield reports
on new supreme
court committee
Prof. L. B. Orfield, university law
professor, reports that the main
goal of the U. S. supreme court
advisory committee on criminal
procedure, to which he was re
cently appointed, will be to com
pile rules simple in form and
simple to interpret. Professor Or
field returned last week from the
committee's first meeting in Wash
ington, D. C.
The committee will meet again
next fall to consider the first ten
tative draft of a uniform code of
pleading-, practice, and procedure
for criminal cases in federal courts.
Meantime Professor Orfield ex
pects to devote considerable time
to study and work on several top
ics of the code.
