              Editorial:
done well
Big events are planned for the student
body in the next few weeks. To name a
few there is Make Mine Magic, the Blue
Key Carnival, homecoming, the inter¬
collegiate rodeo, and the West Coast
Relays.
If they come off as well as the last
events did. the school will really have
something to be proud of.
Student participation at the recent
Hey Day assembly, picnic, and events
at the  park and the Masque Ball was
Special comment is due to Warren
Kraft, student president, and Vern Sel-
land, assembly emcee, for their work
on the big program held in the social
hall to open the Hey Day activities.
A large crowd of students again
showed their confidence and apprecia¬
tion of Kraft and his committees by at¬
tending the assembly.
Enough, and slightly more, was made
from the donations at the assembly to
insure more such activities.
A financial loss at the Masque Ball
was avoided by the large turnout. Ap¬
proximately 350 Staters were present
for the dancing and judging of the cos-
Special congratulations are due the
rally committee. It seems to have taken
great strides toward improvement since
the Moan Awhile assembly last year.

The Collegian again this vear will
take a "hands-off" attitude toward elec¬
tions of student body officers.
As in the past, it will be the policy of
the Collegian to print the proposed pro¬
gram of each Dresidential candidate. The
platforms uill be presented next Tues¬
day, in conjunction with the nomina¬
tions assembly.
We do, however, recommend that
Staters discuss and view critically cam-
paigiK'promiscs of the candidates.
Warren Kraft, student president, is
the first leader in three years to have
completed all his campaign promises. He
literally did all that was expected of him.
Students will and must expect the
same things of the next president. It
will be hard for any of the candidates to
make any loud and glorious promises
which will call for a lot of improvement
over this year. We feel that the candi¬
date who sincerely promises to keep the
college on its present progressive pro¬
gram will be worthwhile.
The problem, therefore, is to decide
which of the candidates is the most suit-
ed; that decision will be left up to the

Wandering through the      _
McLanc. Hall the other day, my heart «•:.. ,
rent by the sight of two drivelling, sobbing
■iri'tclic.s ,ls«-s,|!ing aimlessly in the sand, the
proverbial 2.000 yard stare in their three
bleary eyes. (That's three eyes betwe.-n them
naturally. Nobody has three eyes all by
himself, you fool.)

senior pre-meil students who had just re

vast .'sperience to compile a few pointers, di¬
rected primarily at those poor, starrv-,-ved
ireshmen who are pre-meds.

ample time for study.

the honor is associated with the instructor:
the system with the student.
I. Throughout your college career take
s".s-ry available opportunity to impress upon

thiness. This is facilitated by frequent "office
calls after classes and by small apprecia¬
tions i such as a fifv> of scotch or a platinum

mas. New Year's, Kaster. the birthdays of
our country's presidents, and other appro¬
priate times. This serves a double function
in helping to keep your grades up and in as- SE
suring you of glowing recommendations later.      .
