will like “Music In My Heart”; if
not, then you will have a taste for
that sort of thing.
At a time when the world is
filled with hate and animosity
for our brother man, the motion
picture lords have seen fit to
produce “MEET JOHN DOE.” This
is a story just running over with
brotherly love and kindliness.
Gary Cooper is a down-and-out
baseball pitcher who happens to
be lucky enough to be “John Doe”
in a publicity stunt sponsored by
a big-city daily paper. Barbara
Stanwyck is the columnist on the
paper who originated the idea.
Cooper is bumming around the
country living from hand to mouth
when he is chosen for the job of
“John Doe.” He is immediately
catacaulted in the limelight as the
man who spreads brotherly love.
He makes speeches and organizes
“John Doe” clubs all over the coun
try. His adventures and misfor
tunes are acted with a genuineness
that is touching.

Conditions Worse
j Than US Imagines
“Living conditions on the Europ
ean continent are even worse than
most Americans suspect,” says
Herbert Kadden, freshman engi
neering student at Iowa State Col
lege.
Kadden, a German citizen, was
interned in Belgium when the
Nazi war machine rolled into the
low countries. He later was sent
to a concentration camp in south
ern France, where he stayed 10
months, refusing to go back to
Germany.
The Y. M. C. A. was first brought
to the A. & M. campus in 1906.
The association that year was form
ed with a membership of 165.
