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

more quickly than conservative stu
dents of the same intelligence and
from the same type of family.” He
also found that radicals were able to
shake off old habits more quickly.
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

“Corporal” Abercrombie has made a
bid for this position by “ramming”
himself four demerits for being non

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.

The red corpuscle in college life today is the
flashy red Conklin pen or pencil. In the
pocket, on the desk, dangling from ribbon or
chain it is the sign and symbol of the sanguine,
active mind.
That Conklin pencil is a real word magazine
too. It shoots a lead 3 3^ inches long and car
ries over two feet of them. Fill it on your
birthday and forget it for a year. Fitted with
the clip that can’t slip” or the ring for ribbon
only $2.50. For those who don’t see red
there is black, mahogany and all metals to
match any pen.
