BARRON BRIDGES HOUSE REPORTER Barron Bridges, a 1928 graduate of the University School of Journalism, was recently made court house reporter of the Ambridge, Pennsylvania, Daily Citizen. This assignment is rather unusual sincc he goes by train daily from his city to the county seat, 13 miles away, to gather news. Ambridge has around 30,000 inhabitants and, according to Bridges, is a "hot town for spot news." He has been getting some excellent scoops and is regularly breaking loose with streamer stories on the first page.

They imbibe approximately 993 bottles a day or 28,110 bottles per month. Each Emory 01 man drinks eight-tenths of a Coca-Cola ,g every day, Sunday included. If Emorites would consent to forego s< their daily drink and pour the liquid out on the campus, in ten years Emory ^ would have a lake twenty-five feet wide, ^ twenty-five feet deep, and two hundred ^ and fifty feet long. And if the total number consumed an- * nually" there were placed end to end in bottles they would extend for a distance s. of forty-six miles. ti Bought or Borrowed? University of Kansas, January 19.? s Students at the University of Kansas S use more than $36,000.00 worth of paper each year, according to a survey made I by R. O. Baker, a graduate student in 1 the School of Business. Wise Fools Tests made at the New Jersey College for Women indicated that sophomores are less liable to believe untruths than i juniors arc. ' 1 Observations recently made at the door of the library of the University of Ari- ' zona revealed that 36 out of every 41 1 co-eds go stockingless. ' New Ideas in Education 1 The University of Chicago will drop the present four-year undergraduate ; course, and in its place, a new type of 1 college program is to be created in which ( the student will be able 'to graduate ; 1 whenever he can pass a comprehensive examination. If it takes him six months ' or ten years it is all right with the col- ; lege. A professor at the University of Den- . ver dreams of a "New University" ; which will be a reality in the near future. 1 ; It will have no fraternities, sororities, or 1 athletics, but an institution in which a , ten-year-old child can enter and demand , an education. There will be no exams, ( quizzes, grades, and so forth, and a ' : student may study only when he pleases. , < Go West, Young Man, Go West 1 More than two-thirds of the* 500 coeds at the University of California have indicated in questionnaires submitted to them that they would gladly leave I college if they could find the right ' kind of man to marry them. New Courses We Would Like A course called, "The Art of Making Love" has been installed at Rollins J College. Credit for five hours of work t a week is given. We would like the a course if it is at all practical. 1 1 In place of classes in physical cdu- ^ cation, undergraduates at Barnard College who are in poor physical condition because of fatigue, are being re- * quired to take courses in "rest and ' relaxation." Full credit is given the * students in this course, in which they r are being taught how to sleep. ' 3 t Minneapolis, Minn.?Salesmen for j the University of Minnesota year-book x had a brilliant idea, but college au- s thorities did not agree. Consequently the offer of a chorus girl's kiss with every copy of the year- i book purchased did not materialize. C Managers of the drive had engaged z twelve girls appearing at a local thea- li tre who were to have appeared on the campus for an hour and fifteen minutes. Before the plan went into effect, , however, Dean C. E. Nicholson heard about it and said: "We can't have this." t| The subscription campaign returned to its normal ways. t] p A skull two inches thick was dis- (I covered in a western state. Now we b understand that the president of the state university is making a careful check to sec which member of the j, faculty is missing, ^ ?The Hornet. y The Montana State College students recently went on a five-day strike as a result of the new regulation requiring girls to be in their dormitories by 11 o'clock instead of the previous 2:30 deadline. When a wooden grandstand in the * 106th Regiment Armory, in Brooklyn, collapsed without warning during a game between St. John's College and the College of the City of New York, 1,300 spectators were hurled to the basketball floor, and three were taken to the hospital for treatment. ATardlaw Speaks 1 to Hartsville Group rells Parents and Teachcrs of Advantages of Public Schools Dr. Patterson Wardlaw, of the eduation department, addressed a large A athcring at the monthly meeting of j ie Hartsville Parent-Teachers' As- ( ^ciation, Monday, January 26. c Discussing his subject, "Schools ' )xist for the Service of the State," c )r. Wardlaw said, "The schools can ( elp the State by raising the general :vel of intelligence and character of ne people; this can be done by a more f lorough teaching of the fundamentals, iich as health habits, more business- j ke habits, the sacredness of an obliga- . ion, thrift and a life career." , "After all, the excuse for American j chools is to make better citizens," ^ aid Doctor Wardlaw in conclusion. 'LAYERS GiVE CLASSIC DRAMA The next production of the Palnetto Players will be Shakespeare's 'Twelfth Night." Director Dean plans to take advantage of every bit of comedy, and make of it a "rolicking, frolicking type of production." This will be the first Shakespearean play to be presented at the University, and will run an entire week at the campus theatre. A large cast of actors will be needed, and Mr. Dean asks that anyone interested may see Mr. Dean in his office Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday afternoon between three and five. Among the characters which will be needed are many unusual types: Sir Toby Belch, a drunken comedian; Sir Andrew Aguecheek, another comedian; a priest, and a sea captain. Among the women's parts are Maria, a vivacious comedienne, Viola, and Olivia. Some of the male parts arc to be played by girls. Last year the Palmetto Players ^ave only twelve performances in all: thr?e each of "The Baby Cyclone," "He Who Gets Slapped," and three of the "Carolina Frolic." This year, eight performances have already been given and members of the club have also participated in eight performances af the Freiburg Passion Play. Many new actors and actresses have jeen given parts and several students tre also being trained as stage hands u. s. c.

BELL GIVES FROSH DAT/1 Speaks Over Radio Station WI ' Giving Statistics to Prove Statements "The Five Hundred Freshmen of t' Year 1930-31" was the subject of R. C. Bell's talk over WIS Wednesday. The director of the personnel burer*" had statistics to prove his statements th* * thirty-four per cent, of the boys con from the farm, with a correspondin twenty per cent, of the girls. The industrial and textile branches had th next highest representation. The clerici:! professions stood comparatively low. As for the chosen vocations of the c\as" it is shown that no boy is planning t 1 study farming and a remarkable fev intend following in their father's tradf. None of the girls expressed themselve as intending to he home-makers, showing marked partiality to teaching, with journalism and dramatics next. Mr. Bel! suggested, however, that these might bo iust stop-overs until the right man came along. For the boys engineering, medicine, law, and journalism lead. It is obvious from their own reports that the average yearly income of the families represented does not exceed fifteen hundred dollars. For the boys the average number of children in the home is five, while it is one less for the girls. Of the sixty per cent, signifying their intention to work, thirty-three per cent. have jobs. Many of the freshmen are borrowing $250 or more to pay expenses j a majority are applying for free tuition, saying they are unable to pay the minimum $325. Twenty-nine and a half per :ent. come from homers where the income is $1,000 or less per annum. ?? u. s. c. Soph: G'wan, you've got hayseed in your hair.
