According to the terms of the agreement.
Bryan concern must begin construction of a theater

SECRETS
Bald a dullard te a Phi Kappa Phi, M How did
you get that way?"
A psychologist overheard and decided to do a
bK of research and answer this question which must
be in the minds of fftany poor to mediocre students.
So he questioned at least 20 honor students of
the graduate .ichool of Columbia university about
their study habit* hoping thereby to umbver moth
ods of study which could be applied to all students
who want to get better grades. He found goo.)
studentr have several study habits in commoa.
These are listed here fer the benefit of other’
students: j j !fp-
1. Honor students invariably studied alone,
avoided distractions.
' 2. Honor studants took fairly complete notes
of lectures and followed assignments csrefaH8-
8. Honor student* bad a system of exercise
which they followed rather closely. It te to be noted
that the below-the-average students had no systems
whatsoever. Honor students averaged seven to eight
hours of sleep.
4 Honor students read rapidly, read phntees,
instead of words. • ^ ’
5. Honor studants talked shoot their studies
and reviewed clssswork and reading in their beads
day. They talked with professors and
both hs and out of dass.
8. Honor students were good social mixers,
did net stay at home. They also read widely not
only in their own fields but in other fields of study.
7. Honor, flMmrts crammed for exams when

it would ha a good idea for studants, especially
freshmen, te dip out the above list and paaie it to
their mirrors for easy reference

COLLEGIATE REVIEW
NOT1CB—CAMPUS CASANOVAS
Campus Casanovas have been given their orders
at the University of New Mexico, and the eo-ed
order-givers have formed an organization to enforce
them.
After the women formed the “Rehabilitation
Project on Rapid Romeo Reforra,” they listed the
following as being detrimental to masculine appeal:
1. Failing to remember that only crude count r>
teds sit in the ear and honk the horn instead of com
ing to the door like a gentleman, whan calling for i
a data.
2. Forever braggmg about how he never
cracked a book, and bow he can polish the apple
and atill manage te pull down an "A" in a course.
8. Making an effort to impress everybody
irith the importance of the fact that he and hte
‘ prof are eld pals.
I 4. Embarrassing a girl by getting intoxicated.
5. Insisting on telling a girl of ail bar faults
when she did not ask for the information.
i (.‘Asking her to hte fraternity dance and
upon her arrival to It, stating that ha doesn’t pet
know bow to dance,
j . 7. Being late for a date.
8. Leaving her alone while he goes to talk
to someone else.
9. Saying to his date: "Why can’t you ba like
Mary?"
10. Failing to indicate that he was glad to have
been introduced te a girl's parents. (Sincerity goes
far.)
11. Being rude when a girl, for some reason, re
fuses a date.
1& Telling jokes that might be considered a
trifle shady.

A cheater te usually Viewed from twe different
angles
The first te hte own. He sees himself as a pef- i! (

He aaks himself the question, “If I am not smarter
than they, why te H that 1 can cheat and get by
with it?"
The other angle te the one taken by his seep?'
nates. They may feasibly admire him for hte
ability to cheat constantly and never gSi!ceiBht. I
But more probably they have a feeling of dtetroat
toward him. They see how unscrupulously he uses
other people’s information, and they know he will
do the same with their’s if the chance avails itself
They know that in moat cases when the'jjbeaUf te
caught he does not have nerve enough to admit
that it was he who was doing the cheating,
that in this way-ha causes someone else to
by hte cheating
The cheater te viewed by his school mates in

by soctety. His associates have a right to this view
because he te as hamtfoi to them as a criminal is
to oociety. In fact, he te a criminal in bis pwn
sphere. While he te not taking any real property
or inflicting any fdiysical harm upon ppyone, he

And eventually the cheater may transfer the

Whoop (also in Texas) loudly whoops for his elec

few really valuable laws that have been passed.
‘Cactus Jack,’ as dry as the plains of Texas, as
sharp as the horns of s Texas mesquite, and with
a heart as big and warm as the Texas from whence
he coaies should logiclly be our next democratic
presidential nominee.”
The president’s efforts to make his party a
strong liberal party has drawn strong praise from
the Egyptian-of Southern Illinois Ttwcher College:
"President Roosevelt should be commended b(y all
progressive eitixens of both parties for his recent ■
appeal to the Democratic Party to definitely estab
lish itself as the liberal party. For many years the
words Democrat and Republican have been more or
lees meaningless as far aa actually denoting the
attitudes an dpolicies of the party members. There
ha* been an unnatural division among the voters
with dl shades of liberals and conservatives group
ed together around the Democratic and Republican
standards. It is to be hoped that Mr. Roosevelt will
be successful in his attempt to dispel the magic of
ikJ words Democrat and Republican and establish
S new political line-up of liberate va. conservatives.”
.Ifany other college papers have expressed their
, gMtoSNMent of this view.
As far aa the third term (or the President is
concerned, most collegians do not favor the move,
most db not believe he would be elected if nominated
The Republicans are receiving little or no notice
in the college preaa. About the only mention of
them in recent weeks te this brief note in the
University of Baltimore Baloo: "From now on
we’re going te keep our eyes on Senator Borah. He
is the only government official to have gumption
