Manacer Kcitk O Baaami Nirbt New Editor 'rr Ewiat Campus Chatter Dear Editor: I'm afraid I can't make you see how I feel about them how (1 know) many of us feel about them. But, lot me try. I glory in their coming! Bells symbolize the vibrancy of youth, the pulse of living, aspira tions, the spiritual, the urge of idealism. We need them to summon us to' think of other things than daily tasks and burdens. Why should they ring only on Sunday? Ours is a utilitarian campus. How completely lacking it is in the material things which have as their objective the pleasurable! Why should not our campus be iitted to educate (e-duco) the more esthetic side of those young enough yet to learn? Why should I blind myself to the beautiful by holding before my selfish eyes another use which I could have made of their price? An added instrument to my kit of educational goar? You and I could think of a hundred and one more "useful" (?) things! But, what is utility? 1 paraphrase Lecomte du Nouy. The "useful" thing is defensive its primary purpose is the perpetuation of the status quo. That which is outside of the mere utility range, a "useless" (?) thing, is that "rich leads us forward and upward. Put in the mathematical terms of the engineer, we need to ex pend some energy for acceleration, over and above that required to maintain progress. Our velocity will increase only if we have an additional dvdt. Yes, I glory in the coming of The Bells. May we have more "use less" things brought to us, until thoughtful idealism takes some manner cf hold upon us all! O- J. Ferguson. Ed. not He is rffrrrine to the Mim-1It Carillon tower. Something new has been added in the way of serenades. Ye old sorority prexies did a pretty good job under the able leadership of Pat Nordin. From the viewpoint of the passer-by, Wanda Young and Gloria Ferschtman got a rousing welcome home by their sorority sisters. General comment of prexies after their return home: "Don't ask us what we did, just do what we sav from now on." Retraction: Fig Flagg is NOT an old-timer, he is one of the more prominent has-beens.

Christened several weeks ago With Tongue In Cheek By Cub Clem The King Features Syndicate is getting out of hand. They must think Lincoln newspaper readers are excep tionally smart; at least it would seem so from the crossword puzzles they continually send to the Lincoln Star. We are something of a crossword fan ourselves, and when we saw the Oct. 8 Star lying on a table untouched, we thought we'd try our hand at the puzzle. Twenty minutes later we emerged from our solitary intellectual combat with three words, namely "llama," "Essen" and "retie," filled in. We enlisted the aid of a law student and a pre-med student and after another half-hour we succeeded in adding "abating," "seemer," "artist" and "baton." There the joint command was forced to surrender. We left the field shaken mentally and morally and went out into the night in search of simpler pleasures. Crossword puzzles circulated in such mass media should also not be that difficult. As we see it, they should give Mr. and iMrs. America an easy way to prove to themselves how smart j they are. About all they do is frustrate jeople. Maybe the average person would like to spend hours the Sigma Kappa annex ou "at ! trying to figure out a seven-letter word for "supporting Piedmont has been pretty popu- j figure of an entablature," a five-letter word for "primitive lar for a certain Sigma Kappa- ; rhHtian Wp fpnst " n fnnr-lrttpr u-nrrl fnr 'P.PnVi .l.I wind" or a three-letter, word for "ship lumber piece."
