Many Opportunities
Offered to Student

*For Summer Holiday



Specially contributed by
Alison Raymond

The Alliance has been attempt-
ing to help people to find the kinds
of jobs for the summer which will
be a part of the defense effort, yet
which will also give students ex-
periences that will be valuable to
them after college.

The majority of the students
who have been interested in this
type of employment have been jun-
iors. Of them the largest group
are interested in social work.
Workers are needed in nearly all
communities, on nearly all fronts—
for child care, housing, nutrition
work, clinics, and recreational lead-
ership. Our welfare agencies are
working at full capacity to handle
the stresses and strains caused by
a population uprooted and moved
by defense industries and by the
draft. Settlements and welfare
agencies in every local district wel-
come applicants. Miss Kraus is
glad to give suggestions to stu-
dents as to where they are most
needed.

Probably the most direct means

of contributing concretely to the:

offense effort is by working in fac-
tories. Work in a factory will
make plain to you as nothing else
can, aspects of problems in labor
and industry which will face us
after the War. Miss Fairchild
plans to speak in the near future to
students interested in factory work,
on what will be expected of them
in the factory.

The third big defense need is for
workers on farms. Men have been
taken from the farms leaving them
short-handed; prices are rising;

Announcement of

The courses will be open only to
those who have shown better than
average ability in the prerequisite
courses.

Stubborn Refrigerator

Postpones Opening

Of Patriotically Decorated Soda Fountain



By Elizabeth Watkins, ’44

As soon as
which works on A. C. current, can
be made to work on D. C., the new
soda fountain will _ be _ opened.
There may be further delay if the
curtain material, which was lost
somewhere on its way to the Maids
Bureau, cannot be found. But al-
ready the room looks prepared for
business ‘with its newly varnished
bar, ice cream cooler and shiny
sink.

The color scheme is patriotic, but
not the shades of red, white and
blue one would expect.’ If you
would like an idea of the true col-

jors, look-at~the samples on Helen

Eichelberger’s broomstick ~ skirt.
Helen and Flo Kelton have painted
the blue chairs and tables. The re-
moval of thé old costume closets
has left a large discolored area on
the walls and they are eager to
splash it with cream colored paint.
Pipes overhead will be treated in

the refrigerator, |

The managers have started to
stock the shelves and they seem to
have a very modest opinion about
the response to their project. While
investigating we could only find
twelve coffee mugs and twelve ice
cream dishes. An electric milk-
shaker, however, has been donated..
This is a mainstay of the equip-
ment and will have to do double
duty because carbonated water
cannot be obtained for sodas. To
prevent the room from acquiring a
deceitful nature a new name is
needed. We suggest a contest with
the privilege of a free hand behind
the counter as“a “prize.

An ornament was discovered on
the sink—a genuine, silver-plated
single barreled cap gun. We had
visions of it hanging above the fire-
place in a redecorated May Day
room. After glancing at the tall,
red stools and the huge Coca-Cola
cooler, we decided it was just “bar
atmosphere.”

Inertia

The state of extra-curricular activities on campus today is
one of astounding weakness. There is an elaborate and success-
fully tested system of organizations, but recently these have ex-
perienced a sad lack of student enthusiasm, respect, and support.
We know this to be true because we have heard the League ask
for more volunteers for community work, we have heard the
Players’ Club plead in vain for interest in experimental plays, the
Stage Guild solicit hands—almost every club has found its mem-
bership small.

Energies are not being diverted toward defense; they are not
being used at all. People decline positions, refuse to try out for
activities and then spend their time in the smoking room. The
enrollment in defense courses does not validate the excuse that
the campus activity has been directed toward war work.

Those who take an active part in extra-curricular activities,
even those who have been dragged into working for a club because
“somebody has to do it,” have not regretted their efforts. They
do not answer to the name “sucker” because they have-enjoyed
themselves after all. The trouble, then, lies in mental ‘inertia—
students are apt to rationalize themselves into thinking they do
more work if they take on less responsibility. The fact is that
responsibility means worry, not that extra time is required.

The campus has forgotten the value of extra-curricular activ-
ity as far as training and experience goes, but more immediate is
the practical problem of keeping alive the organizations. These—
of which the News is not the least—cannot go on without support.

Something Off My Chest

Last week’s summing-up, editorial on the Alliance and Sally
Jacob’s Second Column, the general feeling of confusion about the
war and ourselves all indicate that the Alliance must “lay the cards
- on the table” if it is to serve the purpose for which it was created.

Now, despite the fact that the Alliance Manifesto was printed
in the News, it is evident that people don’t know what it really is
or rather is meant to be. The Alliance was born in the minds of
a few people, too few. These people all had one thing in common.
Some of them, the Juniors and Seniors, remembered back to the
days when the International Relations Club, the Peace Council
and the American Student Union provided the opportunity for
people to come together and give and take viewpoints on present

The History of Art Department
has rearranged its courses, adding
an introductory survey under Mr.
Bernheimer and Mr. Sloane, and
making the present First Year
course in Italian. Art an elective.
The new course will not be a sur-
vey in the usual sense of the word,
rather accenting training in tech-
nique, and preparation for more
specialized courses. Art of the
Far East will not be given. The
Spanish Department has also re-
organized its courses in an effort
to approximate the arrangement of
the other language departments.
Instead of the present course in
First Year Spanish there will be
a full year course..in Elementary
Spanish under Miss Nepper, and
the First Year course will be one
of Spanish and Spanish-American
Literature, also under Miss Nep-
per.

The Interdepartmental courses
are three. Mr. Crenshaw, Mr.
