EDITORIAL COMMENT
'Ya, Pa, there is some mail your history test from old NU.'
Ask Us to Think . . .
Few professors just esk us to think.
The majority of instructors believe that if there
is one thing we learn in college it is how to sound
intelligent, even if there is no knowledge behind
the sounds.
Few know where the current student-teacher
relations prevalent on all campuses got their start.
But the thing has spread faster than a history
exam which was obtained before the scheduled
test. Most instructors and students share a mutual
unconcern and a "leave me alone" feeling for each
other.
An innocent political science instructor at North
western, handed back his mid-term exams and
sadly said, "It's not that these are really a bad
group of papers, it's just that I expected too much
from you. This class seems to have written as
if they accepted my word as law. I read no opin
ion, no evaluations and no theories other than
those given in lecture. Is that the way you peo
ple learn?"
No one smiled at the teacher's naivete. The
amazed and embarrassed students realized that
here was a teacher who took his students more
seriously than the royalties on his latest book; an
instructor who wanted knowledge behind the
words they had written on their exams.
There are some exceptions to this, some in
structors who stress the point that their students
think. But by in large, we aren't taught how to
learn and we show no proof that we are able.
A few more innocent professors and embarrassed
students might remedy the unconcerned teacher
student feeling. Also emphasis in learning would
be placed on the college student showing what
we think, not how well we knew the third line,
fourth chapter of the text. s.g.

Tips Outlined on 'How to Win
Profs and Influence Grades9
By Connie Gordon
With the six-weeks tests just past and the mid
terms just around the corner, you may be wor
ried about the outcome of your grades. The Uni
versity of New Mexico's student paper, the Daily
Lobo, says that in order to get a good grade out
of a course, just "humor" the profs. So, here are
the Lobo's pointers on "How to be a Success in
College:"
1. Bring the professor newspaper clippings deal
ing with his subject. If you can't find clippings
dealing with his subject, bring any clippings at
random. He thinks that every one deals with his
subject.
2. Laugh at his Jokes. You can always tell if
he looks up from his notes and smiles expectantly
he has made a funny.
3. Ask for outside reading. You don't have to
read it, just ask for it.
4. If you must sleep during the class, arrange
to be awakened at the end of the period. It
creates an unfavorable impression if the rest of
the class leaves and you are still sitting there
dozing.
5. Frequently murmur, "I can see it now" or
'how true." To you this may seem silly. To the
prof, it's "fuel for the flame!"
These pointers might also be titled, "How to
Win Profs and Influence Grades."
Every-Dog-has-his-Day department. As if there
aren't .enough beauty queens around on the var
ious campuses, the University of California has
given a title to a dog: on campus. Brutus, a year
old St. Bernard, was recently crowned the "hand
somest dog on campus."
So, you see, sometimes it does pay to lead a
dog's life at the University of California, any
way. The Kansas State Collegian reports the fol
lowing: "It Happens In All My Classes Depart
ment. Before giving out the exam papers, the pro
fessor makes this little speech: "This test will be
given on the honor system. Please sit three seats
apart in alternate rows!"
Such trusting old souls!
On the University of Minnesota, some lucky
person won't be queen for a day; no, better yet
the students on campus will have a chance to
be "dean for a day."
The winner will be elected on the basis of the
number of votes he receives. Each vote will cost
a penny and the proceeds of the voting will be
turned over to a student SLA day fund.
The Hastings Collegian Quote Omaha University
students opinion on the identity of "the thing." The
students believes that "the thing" is an unbreak
able record of "Good-night Irene."
This is the best opinion I've heard yet!
This is all for now about your fellow campuses
around the country. So until next column time,
Aloha!

By Art Enstlen
Some of you might wonder
how to select the popular records
for your collection. Personally I
have found that the Tunnls
"One Spot" is one of the best aids
in finding what songs are selllnR
the best. The main purpose of
the "One Spot" is to tell the
buyer which songs on records are
selling the best. Besides that this
publication from Chicago also
iikis me nines
that are likely
to be the hits
o f tomorrow,
So if you have
doubt as to
what songs
you should
buy, to bo up
on top tunes
check the Tun
nis "One Spot"

ite record
dealer.
imrfiM that. STt
'One Spot" lists as an up and
coming song is "Across the Wide
Missouri." This song as done hv
I'aul Wpstnn'K nrchostra nnH h
Norman Luboff chorus Is great
for listening or for dancing. It is
a smooth rendition of a song that
reminds one of the mighty "Mo",
and the country that surrounds
it.
Victor has many hits on its
single singer scries, and one of
the best is by Tony Martin, with
the help of Henri Rene's orches
tra and chorus doing "Pagan
Love Song." The arrangement
for this song is like that for the
picture by the same name. This
record is one of the few that fea
tures that arrangement.
"Once There Lived A Fool" by
Tommy Edwards is in the semi
race class. Tommy, with the aid
of LeRoy Holmes, who conducts
a great orchestra, does a wonder
ful job on this cut. Edwards has,
of course, a style of his own, but
in certain spots of the record,
you can hear traces of the won
derful "Mr. B," and Nat "King"
Cole.
The people with the London
label have their own version of
Spike Jones. The song, "Oh What
A Face" is a song that Phil Har
ris has done in answer to "The
Thing". For a song that has the
corn hear "Oh What A Face" by
Ray Smith on the vocal, and
Henry Jerome handles the con
ducting chores.
In the we've-got-more-nerve-than-brains
department you
might listen to "Hot Rod Race
Numbers 1 and 2". If you aren't
familiar with No. 1 don't bother.
However, if you go in for that
type of music (?) then by all
means get the No. 2. Both songs
are done by Arkie Shibley and
the Mountain Dew Boys.

Circular Lists
New Poultry Tips
A new circular on poultry ra
tions and feeding is off the press
ai me university and available
at the o'fices of county exten
sion agents.
Author of the circular is Ex
tension Poultryman Waldo F.
Aubol. He lists the ingredients
necessary in poultry rations from
the complete chick starting mash
to feed required to get the best
lay from hens.
He said that 60 to 70 per cent
of the poultryman's total produc
tion cost is feed. The efficient
manager, he added, will adjust
feeding practices to fluctuations
in prices or ingredients and still
maintain egg production.
He said savings can be made
if producers pool their feed or
ders in making quantity purchases.

Satiny legs are not acquired
by chance. Now that blustery
winds in Nebraska are the reg
ular order of the calendar, spe
cial care is necessary to avoid
drying skin.
Lubrication is your best bet, if
you wish to avoid the roughness
and scaliness that detract from
hem-to shoetip glamour, accord
ing to the Chicago Tribune.
To keep your legs soft and
smooth during the windy months,
try this quick and simple after
bath treatment.
Begin by giving your calves
brisk terry-toweling to stir up
circulation and scuff off dried
skin particles. Then smooth on
baby oil, blotting off any excess
with a towel. This clear oil,
which leaves no unattractive
white residue, will not stain your
clothing.
