FRESHMAN SPIRIT

is to come, is the f jet th.it freshmen at Fresno State
Collect- out-number and out-spirit the sophomores.
On the campus the freshmen arc doinp the haz-
campus, suppose-dlv typical of the American col-
lege.
We must: however, give Hollywood credit for
thinkine. that the life of university students furnishes good material for the celluloids. But that is
about as far as the credit should go.-The producers and writers completely overlook all the plot,
situation, and character possibilities abundant on
any university campus. They overlook these in
favor of sickly-sweet mush no more typical of college hie than is life in a cheap night club.
And the public is expected t0 believe that these
anachronistic  jazz-ace depictions show how we

HOLLYWOOD GRIEVANCE  ™

to fill o
double bill.
And every year millions of misguided people
who know little or nothing about colleges or college life, through the evils of the double bill system, have to sit through these cheaply produced
untruthful portrayals of life  on  some  mythical
for a while, to absorb some of the individual atmosphere and customs of each camnus. to learn
whan the students are thinking. Bring them back
to Hollywood and let them write a show, using
the advice of professional scenarists on technical
liters only. Then cast the show with college ac-
s who have proved themselves in shows at their
own schools, but who are untainted by the stilted
traditions of Hollywood—for instance a group
such as the Stanford actors who presented a new-
play each week at Talioc City this summer.
Wc have a hunch they could turn out a first-
rate movie which would accomplish its three purposes: to partially right the wrongs done the colleges in the public mind by past movies, to provide top-notch entertainment, and, of course, to
gross well at the box offices.
