BY ELLIE SWANSON There comes a time in every student's lite, when .he must study. Rumor has it that study ing has become an essential in college life, although rumors come and go, and if you happen to choose to disregard it as a waste of time, don't let anything I might say lead you astray. However, for the benefit of the individualists among us who evi dently go to college to get an edu cation, let me elaborate a bit on this stifling subject. I admit, frankly, that it might be much easier for me to investigate the problem of "How to avoid study ing and exasperate professors," or "Ten easy lessons on how to crib," but since I have said this much, I will try to sift through my me i.mory and remember some of the things I have been told about study habits. Concentration? The first thought that enters my mind in connection with studying is the word "concentration." I have always presumed that this meant keeping your mind on the subject at hand. If you. however, are one of the more intelligent souls who find it possible to put your mind on the subject, your eyes on the door, one ear on the telephone, the other on the radio, your mouth on a cigarette, your left hand on a coke, and still keep your right hand free to write a letter, this naturally puts you in a higher bracket of mentality . . . and makes me a genius. Do I hear someone ask "what is the best time to study?" Let us look at this query through pro cess of elimination. We must im mediately cross out weekends be cause every normal human being must have some time to relax and enjoy themselves. Mornings are impossible as the human body re quires a certain amount of sleep. During the day is obviously im practical as you need some time between classes to nourish your fatigued body with a sundae or a coke. This leaves evenings, but if you studied in the evenings, when would you have time to ar range your enjoyment for the weekends? The way I analyze the situation, it's a cut and dried case between your health and your studies . . . need I say more? Simple, Yes! Always when someone makes a simple statement, such as was contained in my last paragraph, there are a few revolutionists who stubbornly dispute the point. I will, hereby, pacify my last state ment. If you pass through a week and find that your health prohib its your from studying, don't feel that this must be a permanent condition. Remember the quota tion of one of our most beloved philosophers (his name has, un fortunately, momentarily slinnoH my mind). '"Even if you close the barn door before the eggs are naicnen. tne horse mav be on the other side of the bridge" ... or. "Never put off until tomorrow wnat you can put off until the ciay aner tomorrow." In closinff. I must nprPKs:irrlv explain to any of my professors wno mignt have read this acci dentaly. that I'm reallv onlv ink ing. Actually, next to dating, sleeping, coking, activities, play ing bridge, and generally loafing, I advocate studying as the most essential reature or college life. Coriiliusker . . .

Joan Rapp will go to Iowa U. to meet a certain male interest, while Gene Weiler has plans with a high school flame now attend ing school in Dubuque. This seems to be more than a high school interest, too. Incidentally, June Korb is anxious to go to the game if a ride presents itself. Chuck Hemmingson, of last year's vintage, now home on leave from the army, when asked who he was dating, said he was trying. Give the boy a break, girls! Parly Boys Saturday night the Sigma Nus and Sigma Chis will hold house parties but true to form, the Sigma Nus must hold their party at one of the more out-of-the-way places namely, the Round House We understand that a few of the boys are still scouting around for dates due to belated phone calls Monday night. Marilyn Duffack claims to have a sick sister in Omaha which, according to ex clamations from the phone booth, didn't impress Jack Young. Gene Mayborn is stnl reportedly scout ing around. Is it out of necessity we wonder. Bruce Coffman will escort Sue Alexander, while Don waite, basketball potential, will be seen with Bev Engdahl. The Sigma Chi party will be open to all, but Sigma Chi sweet heart, Joan Butler (or at least to Bob Van Sant), will be in the limelight and Dick Toren will be with Mortar Board Lorene No votny.
