College - Your Investment
College is one of the greatest investments a person can
make during early adulthood or for that matter during his
lifetime. Like any other investment, there is risk involved.
Four or five years of hard work and several thousands of
dollars are being invested for what you believe wiir result
in a greater knowledge of the world around you and tip to a
quarter of a million dollars more than the average high
school graduate earns during his lifetime.
It is a risk. Not every college graduate goes farther in
life than that "foolish kid who quit school after receiving his
high school diploma," But more and more today it is evi¬
denced that college education is of vital importance if you
want to get your "foot in the door of the nation's business
world."
The AFL-CIO plans to ask Congress next session for a cut
in the work week. The change would be from 40 to 35 hours.
This would be done to ease the unembployment crisis of
the United States today. However, it will not likely help the
unskilled and semi-skilled workers. Demand is for well edu¬
cated clerical and technical workers. That means you. When
it comes to selection of an employee, large companies almost
without exception consider the college graduate first. The
risk you are taking is pushing you to the front of the line.
But the population explosion continues. The unernpfoy-
.ment problem persists. The government is contemplating
a big tax cut to stimulate employment,, investment and
spending, but according to a columnist of the Wall Street
Journal, this may also be blocked. The government's deficit
spending this year may be a hindrance. Other reforms which
are being tacked onto the tax bill may also increase its
chances for failure.
As college students, we should luiverrprime*mterest-in-the-
government's action on* the shorter work week and lower tax
issues. More employment means less risk for your invest¬
ment Your investment is your life.
Go Early
Go early and avoid the rush!
Fresno State's second theatrical production is currently
running in the Little Theater, and as usual students are
waiting until the last performances to attend.
In the first play presented this season, "The Miracle Work--
er," seats were filled the last nights, but the first perform¬
ances had empty seats.
Students are asked to attend this production now. It is a
classical comedy that deserves your attendance. It's worth
seeing, but it is feared that many students will not gain
entrance if they wait until the last showings.
Go now! Get your tickets early and then use them. Some
students get tickets and then don't show up for the perform¬
ance. This causes other students to be turned down when
no tickets are available, and then at curtain time seats are
empty.
The theatrical season at FSC is to be a tremendous one,
as shown by "The Miracle Worker" production. We urge
students to attend. When you do, go early and avoid the rush.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
During the haiftlme of the
Montana State football game, a
group of uniformed male alu-
denla, complete with lights on
their hats, meandered onto the
turf under the pretense of being
a marching band.
The football fans were then
subjected to the embarrassing ex¬
perience of watching the band
wander aimlessly around the field
to tbe accompaniment of a non¬
sensical, childish and anhumor-
ous tale apparently written by
someone more accustomed to writ¬
ing mosic Luckily, the perform¬
ance waa interrupted by the foot
ball team returning to the field.
Tb« crowd reaction was fully
Justified in my estimation. They
promptly booed the bond off the
field.
Perhaps the bond should be
forgiven, for their practice ses-
slons were Interrupted by the
Thanksgiving holiday. However,
they should have realised the per-
formance would be poor and re¬
fused to appear.'
I move that tbe band use a
little better Judgment In the fn-
. lure. Another show like the last
could easily ruin tbe good name
won (or the college by fine aca¬
demic and athleUc programs. -

Sir:
' In Ute November 29 issue of
The Collegian, a letter from Ber-
nlce Blncon appeared. She bad
read a statement by Collegian
Editor Terry Cress concerning un¬
employed, from which she drew
tbe conclusion that ha waa heart-
leaa, Wry yonng. antl-Ctariallnn,
_u,r\ perhaps even pro-communist.
Her argument is based'on the
rtatement that aU workers pay
Into tbe unemployment fund and
an therefore only getting their
own money back- This U (else.
Unemployment funds are accrued
\sf a UEt on employers.
It ahonld mlao be pointed out
to Hlaa Bincon that the words
••Making aa bo*eet Urine" nsu-
•Ur rater %e Mac salofuly •»-
illf-1 " ■*-*..^th.iiiit>
and standing In line be considered
gainful employment, except to the
person getting the benefits or a
system that was designed to help
him. because he often haa m
terest In helping himself.

Sir:
This is  in  regard  to  Wedi
day's column  accurately entitled
"Two Cents Worth"  by  the Day
Managing Editor.
Please do not misunderstand
me, I enjoy adventure stories and
travelogs. Howerer. Mr. Handell'i
coverage of "Bloiney's Big Air¬
plane Ride" la somehow repetiti¬
ous and Irrelevant.
Many times I have turned to
the Inside page with the terrific
photograph and enjoyed the good
words (cental for the day. Some¬
times I have not been disap¬
pointed.
I am sure the airlines enjoyed
bii kind words concerning the
cordial Hospitality while on board.
Tes, five years Is a long time
between plane ride*. But maybe
all Fresno Staters can wait that
long again to learn about the
"Further Adventures of a Trav-

Fourteen new instructor! were

Usted five men whom he was
nominating for "Un-patriot of the
Year."

Barnett, Edwin Walker, George

Orange State College Titan Times
Over-organization waa blamed
for the collapse of the biggest
Intercollegiate sport; elephant-
racing.
The event, which waa rirat
staged on the Orange College

bor, Mich., campus of the Uni¬
versity of Michigan, for the sec¬
ond event. Conditions. 30 degree
weather and homecoming activi¬
ties, were Impossible and the
whole event collapsed.	
We can only wonder what the
pachyderms  will  do  now.

Junior   College  I teach com ber
.   In  an editorial  by Robert E.
Rollin,   students   are   warned   to
think  for themselves.
An example Is made of a coed
whose uncompromising rather has
dellnlated a course of Btudy. The
girl, finding no particular ability
In that course, decided to change'
her major, but her parent balked.
She realized that her plans didn't
work In accord with her father's.
This Utile example Is shown to
give the student some Initiative
and Individuality. The editorial
warned collegians to choose
courses and majors fo'r their
bents, not someone's whims.

DEATH
The night of death lies 'round my bed
And gently bids me now depart.
The breath of life blows past ray head
And icy fingers still my heart.
I smell the graveTrny earthen goal,.
As quickly now life's journey ends.
Its dark, deep rancor grips my soul
And tears it from my feeble limbs.
My dusty nostrils breathe no more
Their last drawn breath now slips away,
As eyelids close aa oft' before,
When darkness brought the end of day.
And surely now the end is here,
For death my raptured soul can see.
—Too late my drunken mind does fear—    —
Beyond the grave—eternity!
