During the next semester the Spectator will begin a new policy. Each organization on the campus will have Its reporter, who will be hold respon-sible for all news pertaining to that organization.

Through this method we anticipate greater efficiency in news coverage and also greater realistic coverage of that organization. A member of an organization will understand more fully the activities of that organization than a non-member.

Any faculty member, whose department does not have a permanent extra-curricula organization should leave any notice of news breaks in the Spectator box, which will be placed near the bulletin board in the Administration building. A reporter will then be sent to cover the news. Promptness in doing so will facilitate news coverage

Students who have now or personal Items should also place them in the Spectator box. Thus through cooperation of everyone we should have an efficient coverage of the campus news.

Following are the reporters and the organizations which they will

The College appreciates sincerely the donations which have made possible the beginning of the New Physical Education and Health Building. With the actual launching of the building project, It will be most imperative that the College be able to collect all pledges as soon as they fall due. Plans for carrying out the building program have been based largely upon the pledges which have already been made, and in order that the project may go forward on schedule, these obligations should be met as promptly as possible.

Additional pledges will be needed in order to carry out plans to successful completion. New pledges, therefore, will be most acceptable at the Business Office.

One of the aims of McPherson College, as formulated by the faculty and printed in the catalog, is to "safeguard the health of students by means of formal instruction, physical and medical examinations, and

Heretofore, the College has lacked facilities to realize these aims fully. The new Physical Education and Health Building is an effort to supply this need. It will provide offices for the physical education directors adequate showers, dressing rooms, class rooms, and a room for individual and small group games. It will be a modern building, well built, attractive and most of all, a useful-building.

Inter-collegiate basketball games will continue to be played in the city gymnasium. The new building will be exclusively devoted to the physical education and health pro-gram of the college and as such will give the college a higher rating as as educational institution. Any college that wishes to pose as adequate for modern needs must provide in an effective way the physical needs of its students. .

8. Plan proper length and distribution of study periods, one to two hour units for easy or varied work; and thirty minutes with two or three minutes rest periods in between for unfamiliar or difficult work.

These teachers seem to be scaring us into studying. From all rumors, at least, the assignments and papers are longer and more outside reading must be done. Perhaps it is good psychology, but we hope that when the spring fever becomes contagious they will be afflicted also.

There is a lion outside. I shall be murdered in the streets."’ One man got the message, for he this morning rubbed his ears and remarked that there really was a lion outside We had a swell time with some mighty fine people—even if Dr. Schwalm could say of Bishop Hugh, "he looked like he might be off the farm.” It was a real rest to sit around playing games, even if I did get beat. And there was Betty Ruth's collection of dogs—she had about every kind of a dog there is, except maybe a hot dog.

In Philosophy of Religion we were considering whether trees have personality and consciousness and so forth, and Dr. Metzler remarked that he sort of hates to cut down a tree. “Yes," said Boyer, "that takes work."

In Roman History, Dr. Bright raised the window for want of a cuspidor, calling to mind the case of the rich old Indian who bought a big, shiny limousine.

"Indian don’t like um. How much trade um for this one? He pointed out a topless phaeton.

What a shock everyone received when Dalies Frantz took those long strides over to his piano. Expectations were for a bushy-haired, short, stocky man and here appeared a young man very similar in appear-ance to Tony Meyer.

A sudden eerie whistle announced the flight of a projectile, turning the hearers’ blood to water. Three deafening crashes in quick succession and three direct hits were scored on the venerable men’s dormitory. The mysterious attackers faded into the night, before the debris could settle. Dust filled the air for some time, (as it had all day) while the terrified survivors huddled In fear of further attacks. This morning, sunlight show-ed three gaping holes in the wall, the panes shattered. Word comes that an offering is to be solicited for the aid of the needy students. This is probably an error, for what are three windows more or less in Fahnestock Hall? Anyhow, as Bob Wiegand says, they probably will not replace them, for new windows would not match the old building.

We are getting off to a fine start in Marriage and Family, with Harshbarger and I sitting on the mourners’ bench to supply the "among."

Last summer she earned $8 a day as a professional guide. And no wonder. For she caught her first fish before she could spell the word and at 12, swam across choppy Lake Shagawa, a distance of two and three-quarter miles. She became an amateur fishing guide at 13.

"Collect names. Make it a point of finding out the name of some one who speaks to you so that next time you can say, "Hello, Mary." Not. Oh, hello-o-o."

Survey Reveals Outline Values

Eight McPherson Students in National Poll Taken by Bureau

College outlines are a definite aid to improved grades, in the opinion of students using them, a poll conducted under the auspices of the Bureau of Educational Surveys, New York City, shows.

The poll, covering a period of several months, embraces 3,720 students in 223 institutions of higher learning. Eight students from McPherson College were included in the poll.

By far the largest number of students reported grade increases from fair to good, following the use of these study helps. A second large group reported improvement in grades from failure to passing. In a few cases students previously re-ceiving failing grades reported final A ratings.

The consensus of opinion among the students was that by stating the facts concisely." the college outlines simplified study, enabling them to quickly grasp the essentials as well as get the most out of the recommended text and auxiliary reading.

The professors included in the poll in the main approved the use of outlines by the students on the ground of their value as a supplement to their own lectures and as it means of getting the subject toge-ther in a coherent and concrete way. Quite a few expressed the belief that they helped the student who might otherwise get lost in an introductory course. “As great a help to the student as any one factor," was the opinion of a Baylor University professor.

The poll was not without its dissenting votes. A student from a Middle-western school wrote. "Flunked. The outline would have been a great help if I had only read it.” And this came from an educator at a prominent Eastern university "It is not a pleasant sensation to have a student come into your class with one of these outlines and use it apparently as a check upon what one is talking about.

Alex Richards Gives Lecture

A talk and the showing of films on old Mexico by Alex Richards was the feature of the program for the Chemistry Club meeting on Thursday, February 3. Mr. Richards also gave a talk on meteorites. He had several specimens of meteorites which made his talk both interesting and instructive.

Student- Seek Help for Far East Student Funds

Addison Saathoff spoke on the military control of the Chinese schools by the Japanese soldiers. He mentioned the fact that China had adopted the American system of schools and now are unable to open unless Japanese school systems are accepted. It is America’s duly to aid the Chinese students protect and further their democratic government.

A second talk was given by Dwight Horner who urged that we as Christian students help the suffering Chinese students who also belong to the great body of Christian youth. China’s greatest hope for the future lies in the education of her youth.

At the conclusion of the program, a collection was taken which will go to help in the Far Eastern student Emergency Fund.

The Young Peope’s Regional Conference will be held at the Monitor Church all day Sunday. February 6. The theme of the program Is “What In the B. Y. P. D. For?" At the morning service there will be a speaker from McPherson College.

A panel discussion on the theme of the conference will be the main feature of the afternoon. Kurtis Naylor will represent the College B. V. P. D. in that discussion. The stereoptican picture. "The Old Book Finding Now Friends," will be shown in the evening. Recreation for both afternoon and evening, as well as a basket dinner, are part of the program.

Pittsburg Here To Test Canines

Promising Freshman ¹

Hoop Swishers

By The Colonel Bethany Bounces—

Before an enthusiastic crowd of McPherson rooters, the Bulldogs forged to the top of the conference by a ragged victory over the hapless Swedes. Barngrover's long range gunning. Meyer's "dunkers", and the occasional flash floor work were the redeeming features of the hectic affair.

Gene Kemper, seeing the "swing system" In action for the first time, was duly impressed by the fast rushing style on the part of the Bulldogs, who were certainly not up to par.

Maybe it is a premature statement, but watch out for the Swedes next year. Yearlings Norburg. Car-roll, Peterson, and Grieves should soon begin clicking. Incidentally, Coach Astle formerly refereed games for the Kansas City Midget League, of which blond Harry Peterson was a member.

February Findings—

Norman Strahan and Carlos Crabb. former McPherson lads and the latter being a brother of Eugene, are first-rate cagers on the Oklahoma City University team, which received a boating by Bethel last week.

Dave "Tennessee Terrier" McGill. one of the Bulldog spark plugs, is visiting at his home in Soddy and will be unable to play against Pittsburg tonight. Although his steady type of playing will be missed, Dave felt that he should go home for the first: tlme in more than a year be-cause of the illness of his mother. However, he will again be available for the important conference conflicts next week.

For lack of a more suitable title, Wanamaker's teammates are now calling him "Rosey" or "Slats."

The Pittsburg Gorrillas are en-routo to another conference engagement at Ft. Hays, tomorrow night and a defeat at the hands of the Canines tonight would probably place them in a fighting mood.

3 Consecutive Cage Contests

Coach Astle's Hoopsters Will Face Bethel, C. of E. and Ottawa

With three consecutive cage contests scheduled next week. Coach "Buck” Astle's hoopsters will be on the road most of the time. They meet Bethel at Newton on Saturday, Ottawa at Ottawa Thursday, and C. of E. at Emporia on the following night.

Bethel is expected to be fired with determination to avenge an earlier loss to McPherson and a victory over Oklahoma City last week places them In a better position. The "grudge" tussle with the Graymaroons will be the final non-conference encounter for the Bulldogs this season.

Although the Ottawa Braves defeated the Canines earlier in the season, Coach Astle's men feel that it is their duty to tame Coach God-love's crew in a crucial game. To even up their records against the Ottawans will be their objective.

C. of E. has proved to bo a stumbling block to nearly all conference teams and the Bulldogs will again attempt to provo McPherson's superiority on the basketball court against the team of a former coach, "Bud" Selves. Both of these games are hoped to be "stepping stones” for the Bulldogs in the Kansas Conference race.

Speedy Bulldog Guard

Marvin Fox. freshman center, has shown up well in his first year of college competition. Marvin halls from Larned. Kansas. With his height and aggressiveness Fox will give the members of the first squad a fight for their positions next year. Fox has been one of the leading and consistant scorers on the second team.    .

“Don’t Marry The Daughter"

An English professor in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is taking it all back”.

In 1929 he told the Institute's graduating class to "Be a snob; marry the boss’s daughter.”

"Now." he declares, "I've decided the advice didn’t work out, as well us I expected. "By marrying the boss's daughter, the young men took the chance of acquiring the boss’s liabilities along with his assets.” Besides, it seems that the young men so advised were naked by the fair—and wealthy—objects of their affections if the offers of marriage were inspired by love or their professor's advice.

Bulldogs Defeat Bethany Swedes

Fifth Consecutive Victory Added as Canines Win in Final Spurt

Coach "Buck" Astle’s McPherson college Bulldogs, defending their lead of the Kansas Conference, nos-ed out the Swedish rivals from Bethany 36 to 31 at Lindsborg last Friday night. For their fifth consecutive victory, the Bulldog second team downed the Bethany reserves 27-23 in the preliminary game.

Slightly over-confident were the Canines, whose last minute spurt furnished a needed victory over the determined Swedes. McPherson held a 13-11 lead at the half, but goals by Killfoil and Norburg kept Couch Schaake's men in the running until Astle's bucketeers turned on the power.

In the rough and ragged contest, four Bethany players went to the showers on personal fouls and 35 fouls were called by Referee Gene Kemper daring the game. Barngrover led the scoring with 12 points and Norburg and Killfoil closely followed with 9 and 8, respectively.

W. S. Evaluates Hymns

Evelyn High conducted a most in-treating discussion Tuesday afternoon in the S. U. R. on how to evaluate hymns. Score sheets on how to judge hymns as to their lyric, religious, and social qualities were given to each member present.

After Miss High had presented the criticism or merits of a particular group of hymns, the strains of a typical hymn were played by Mamie Wolfe or sung by Olivo Edgecomb. The meaning of the words was stressed as being important in determining the excellence of a hymn. It was pointed out also that it is essential for the music to support the meaning suggested by the lyric.

Next week Professor R. E. Mohler will give a talk on church architecture.

World Service Cabinet Meets Dusk on Sunday evening found the World Service Cabinet enjoying a social hour in the Student Union Room. At the conventional hour for supper, the group adjourned to the-Y. W. room where a light lunch and refreshments were served.

Herbert Stauffer, center, is one of the most promising freshmen out for basketball this year. Coach "Buck" Astle used Stauffer on the first squad during the first of the season, but since the return of "Tony" Meyer Stauffer has played with the second team. Great things are expected from Herbert next year.
