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.

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. (We hope

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." Per
sonally, we think we'll pass it up.
