Allen Kyle, president of the Har ris County A. & M. Club, in which Mr. Kyle states that his organization has voted to donate $100.00 to the Stadium fund.—Daily Texan. * * * Life at Oxford is not very pleasant for the thirty-two American girls who are studying at the English institu tion. “While there is not among Oxford undergraduates that feeling of re sentment against women students which leads Cambridge men to smash the gates of the women’s colleges and to stamp and groan when a woman enters a lecture room, yet their re gard for the newcomers is far from kindly.” * * * Professor H. T. Moore, psycholo gist and radicoligist of Dartmouth College, announced the results of a series of radicolism tests conducted at Yale, Columbia and Dartmouth. Professor Moore finds that the radical students “used their brains do you comb your hair? H For neat ap« p pearanee ? the great aid to fejj success.

In most American colleges, there is too much feeling shown against radicalism by those in authority. Per haps there is justification for some of their feeling, but in several well known instances student opinion has been set aside merely because it did not coincide with the aspirations of iome of the ones who were vitally in terested. * ❖ * Vassar Referendum To correct wild and distorted state • ments appearing in the daily press concerning the recent smoke referen dum at Vassar (New Student of Jan uary 31) Miss Eleanor Dodge, presi dent of the Students Association, makes the following announcement: “No action of any kind yet been taken. “The questionnaire is purely an expression of student opinion. It shows that a number of students are accustomed to smoking, but the as sumption made by at least one news paper that all of these students break the college rule is totally unfounded. “Apparently the smoking rule is broken more than any other rule, but even so there are 1,100 students in Vassar and from this number only seventeen have been reported for smoking this year. “Before the student assembly votes one way or the other, the Joint Com mittee of Faculty and Students will meet to discuss the advisability of changing the rule. “If the assembly eventually votes to change the rule the action must be approved by the faculty to become ef fective.” * * * It was recently rumored that a group of professors are to attempt to stage a classical revival. And now the perspicatious “Windmill” points with pride to an account of what may be the rise of a cult of sartorial me dievalism. He alludes to the story of the three wise men from Princeton who recently visited President Cool- idge. President Coolidge viewed with disapproval their flapping “Kollegi- ate Kut” trousers which dusted wide stretches of the White House floor as they walked about. He smilingly recommended suspenders as a reme dy.—The New Student. It is with keen enjoyment that this column is able to acquaint the readers with “Milo” Abercrombie’s resolution to become our next colonel. “Corporal” Abercrombie has made a bid for this position by “ramming” himself four demerits for being non regulation. TWO OF ONE Penn State Froth: Georgd—Mar ry me and the world is mine. Georgette (who lisps)—Asthma. “That’s all right dear.

When I saw you, you were having an argu ment with a snow man.” The Alabama Rammer-Jammer: Alumni—This school has turned out some good men. Frosh—When did you graduate ? “That’s the point I’m bringing out —I didn’t.” Resists Corrosion f I ’HIS picture, taken in the salt marshes near JL Kearny, N. J., shows two lines of 30-inch Cast Iron Pipe replacing pipe made of other material. The alternate exposure to the action of salt water and air is a severe test. While the pipe shown in the picture is subjected to unusual corrosive influences, all underground pipe must be able to withstand corrosion to a greater or less degree. Cast Iron Pipe has this quality. It does not depend on its coating to resist rust; the material itself is rust-resisting. The first Cast Iron Pipe ever laid is in service today at Versailles, France, after two hundred and sixty years’ service.
