THE LEAST THEY CAN DO
This week marks the end of the college careers of approximately 100 FSC students, who
were c.illcd to the colors by the Army recently.
Those in the Air Corps received their 24-hour
notices  this  week-end  and   have  already  de-
The ERC will leave Monday for Montcery.
Thc student body is planning to give these boys
a rousing send-off, wirh a dance in their honor
planned for Saturday night.
The Collegian will endeavor to do its bit
toward keeping the boys posted on college affairs by offering to send Tbe Collegian to any
student called into the armed forces, upon
request.
Reservists leaving March 8 can also, receive-
their juition refund up to that date, instead of
February 28. as was previously announced. The
College Board of Directors approved this new-
ruling in order to give the ERC members a
chance to cam one-third credits from their
present course before they left.

Old  Mae went on  down the  hall  fuming  In-

Mac looked thoughtfully at the nifty drawn
on the wall by Oliver Sargent. "I will get to the

I will call in Donaldbain, my ace secret under,

around his head.
"Report, sir.  Mac ordered.
"If*  like  dls  chief.   Like  ,11*.   Since the   lounge

"Away, you oaf, back to your poolroom and

things Into my own hands."
Again Mac dialed thc phone, an answer. "Hello,

FSC Re*ervl*t* were not bluer

they got *worn Into—and at—out

sooner or later they will have to
learn to let non-coma enter a door
first and not ever to cuss back.
That 1* their first lesson in discipline. Never return cuss words to
superior officer* unless their back*
are turned and only then If there
is a strong wind blowing in yourl
face.
FSCs reserve doughboys learned
lt was proof of discipline to wait
in the army. Tbey got to Hammer |

Yes. our fine young men at FSC
were well disciplined.
They had to be to stand In line

All thi* without a murmur from
our boys at Freano- State.
Then our boy* continued to show
their discipline: When the army

I   actually   arc   going   tt

They can stand the cuss words,
