Chrysanthemum 1
Plants Will Bloom
On Campus in’49
By AUSTIN O’NEIL
I • \. | \ ' { J I ' .
A new type of Chrysanthemum,
the Cushion-Mum, will invade the
campus in the fall of ’49, accord
ing to E. E. Forrest of the Care
Maintenance Department j.
i Approximately 100 plants, ten
tach of ten varieties of !th» Cush
ion-Mum, were purchased last
April to be used as stock plants.
From each stock plant about 60
Cuttings can be taken artd these
plants'will be used on the campus.
Because of expense involved in
purchasing new varieties, it is not
•conomical for' the Card & Main-
enance Department to bUy enough
lants at one time to plant all the
eds on the campus. Instead, they
(buy stock plants am] from these
take cuttings for propagation. The
flower beds are changed from
v three to four times each year. At
each change between 30 and 40
thousand plants are put in the
ptaa. , . | j
The main difference In'twoen the
Cushion-Mum, and the regular
Chrysanthemum is ih type of
growth. Instead of growing tall
and straight, the Cush Ion-Mu ms
branch heavily, produce a multi
tude of flowers and ope plant
sometimes reaches fopr to five
feet In diotnster In (trie season.
The plants name originates from
the fact that they reach o uni
form height uod when .In bloom
resemble n large cushion. The'
flowers are from one to two inch
es In diameter, v ' .

Interviewed students of
school seem to agree upon one
aspect of cheating. The common
opinion which was presented might
be summarized in the statement
that cheating is certainly not a
component of education itself, but
is a virtual necessity under the
existing, system of education.
George Fairbaim, a junior, sta
ted, “Cheating is a non-essential
element for students possessing
the integrity and ability to make
a success of themselves. However
it is influenced mainly by the
professors who constantly conceive
methods to combat cheating.”
- He explained his latter state
ment by saving, "Under these;con
ditions an eternal battle exists be
tween the students and faculty,
each trying to outwit the other.’’:
Fairbaim does not absolve,
‘ « how-

eliminated.”
A different opinion- was

When questioned Fred Wilsori, a
