Admission To North Central To Help Many

Dr. V. F. Schwalm Explains Advantages Of New Recognition

McPherson college will receive many benefits from the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, to which it was granted membership last week at a meeting in Chicago, stated Pres. V. F. Schwalm recently.

The benefits, he explained, perhaps will be mainly to out-of-state students who wish to teach in their own state after graduating from the local college, but benefits will come to any students going here. Scholar ships to other schools will be easier to obtain and credits will be more easily transferred.

“Just what it will mean to the college to have been admitted to the association. I have been asked.” Dr. Schwalm said in commenting upon admission to the association. “Per haps it would be wise to say that intrinsically the college is much the same college when it becomes a member as it was immediately before as a bank remains much the same bank before and after inspection by the federal bank inspector. But when it has been inspected and approved it means added faith and confidence on the part of the public and increased self-assurance and self-confidence on the part of those working within.”

In Kansas. Dr. Schwalm said, the work of the college has been received by the state edpartment of education as well as by the state institutions and there will he no local change with the new setup.

“We have many students from Idaho and Iowa and other states where the state department of education refuses to grant certificates to teach to graduates of out-of-state colleges that are not members of the accrediting agency of their region-which in our case is the North Central Association.” Dr. Schwalm said. “For years our students from Idaho have not been able to go home to teach in their home state without first taking additional work in an Idaho college. The same is true in Iowa. Admission to the association changes this and now our graduates of this year may go back home to their home states to teach without additional schooling.

“Our graduates suffered in some cases in seeking to enter certain universities where the college was not so well known. Less than a month ago one of our last year's graduates applied for a scholarship in a large state university where cur work was not well known. His blanks were returned unrecognized because we were not members of the North Central Association. Another former graduate reported that he would have to take an entrance examination to enter for graduate work in another university because we were not a member of the association. Recognition by the North Central Association will now assure our graduates of more favorable consideration in the larger schools elsewhere for graduate work.” graduates have had grief because

In Colorado McPherson college high schools that were recognized by the North Central were not allowed to employ teachers unless they had graduated from colleges recognized by such an accrediting agency. In some cases students were given a choice of giving up their job or doing additional work in other colleges.

At the present time many agencies such as the American Council on publish lists of accredited colleges Education, the United States Bureau of Education and others. In many of these lists McPherson college does

His Efforts Rewarded

Quadrangle Comes Out May 13,14

Editor James Crill States Photography Of Book Already Completed

The Quadrangles will be out either May 13 or 14, it was made known yesterday by James Crill, Quadrangle editor, in an exclusive statement to the press. The dates can be predicted since the work on the book is almost wholly finished.

Crill stated that the photography was all finished and sent in. All of the copy work, although not yet quite finished, will be completed tomorrow and turned in to the Republican. According to Editor Crill, the feature section “really looks classy.”

Macollege students can now anticipate a Quadrangle of excellent quality. They will receive their Quads earlier this year than is the usual custom.


Trip To Hutchinson Serves As Initiation

Today the Chemistry Club is at Hutchinson seeing science in industrial use. This year’s trip will follow closely the pattern of other years.

The two places visited in other years that have been the most interesting are the boy’s reformatory and the 600 ft. descent into the Carey Salt Company’s rock salt mine, which contains twelve miles of tunnels cut through solid salt. Other interesting places are the salt refining plants of the Carey and Morton Salt Companies, a straw paper plant, flour mill, candy factory, bakery, and the Coco Cola bottling works.

Late this afternoon the muscles and feet of the initiates will feel the effects, and they, with the initators and Dr. Hershey will return home tired but with many eyefuls of interesting sights.



Many W. A. A. Members Are Busy Planning Details Of Gala Affair

Plans for the W. A. A. banquet, which is to be at McPherson’s County Club next Friday night, are rapidly being completed this week by active W. A. A. members. The theme for the banquet was picked by the decorations committee last week. It is to be a Robin Hood motif. Edith Spengler, chairman, Doris Doane, and Mildred Fries are working on the decorations which will carry out this theme.

Doris Voshell, chairman, with Gladys Wiggins and Juanita Weaver assisting, are planning an interesting program.

All girls are requested to buy their tickets before April 16. Those living in Kline Hall will buy from Avis Elliot. Lenore Kanel has tickets for Arnold Hall girls and off-campus girls will see Elizabeth Mohler for their tickets.

Mary Ellen Slead is chairman of the dinner committee with Ruby Peterson and Gerry Spohn assisting.

Hazel Bodine in charge of transportation has arranged for cars to take the banquet-goers out to the club.


Annual Music Contest Will Be Soon


Pep Club's Benefit Show May Also Be Seen Next Thursday, Friday

Next Wednesday night has been designed as college night for the Benefit Show sponsored by the Pep Club, it was announced by Marjorie Kinzie, president of the club. By college night it is meant that most college students will attend the show on that evening, although they may attend on Thursday or Friday if circumstances prevent their attending the show on Wednesday evening with the majority of college students.

The Benefit Show will he a double feature at the Ritz Theatre. The first is the “Duke of West Point”, starring Tom Brown and Louis Hayward. and the second is “The Llano Kid,” featuring Tito Guizar. It will be shown next Wednesday, Thurs-,

Alumnus To Teach Public School Music

Miss Gulah Hoover To Come Here For Next Year

Miss Gulah Hoover, an alumnus of McPherson college who graduated with the class of 1935, has been chosen by the board of trustees to succeed Miss Fern Lingenfelter as instructor in public school music and piano here, it was announced this week by Pres. V. F. Schwalm.

Miss Lingenfelter has for the past thirteen years been an instructor here and recently resigned from her position. Miss Hoover's election will become effective with the start of school next year.

While in college Miss Hoover was active in such music organizations as the a cappella choir, the ladies trio, and others. She was president of the Y. W. C. A. in 1934, before that organization amalgamated with the Y. W. C. A. to form the S. C. M. on this campus.

For the past five years she has been supervisor of music in the public schools of Cunningham, Kansas. While she has been there her students have consistently won the highest ratings in the county music festivals.

Commenting upon her election, Pres. Schwalm stated. “She will be remembered at McPherson college for her splendid musicianship, her kindly attitude, and the refined and cultured spirit she always radiated.”

Miss Hoover’s home is in Quinter, Kansas, where she graduated from Quinter High school in 1930. She is one of the few former graduates of the college who have come back to McPherson college as teachers in the institution.

She comes to the college highly recommended by all the officials who have worked with her in her teaching career.

To The Editor


To The Editor:

From the ill manners displayed by a certain number of definitely spotted students in chapel one would think that either Dr. Schwalm is the  president of a kindergarten or the  parents of said students have failed in their attempt to rear children. “Silence is golden", especially in chapel, and displays intelligence or gives a good imitation of it.

Sincerely, An Observer.


Sister College Has Some Things In Common With McPherson

During the time McPherson college vocal artists were on the ensemble tour, a similar group from Manchester college. McPherson’s sister col lege in the East, were making a similar tour of the south.

The trustees of the Indiana school are planning to erect a fine arts building soon, just as the trustees of McPherson college are planning a new men’s dormitory here.

Manchester students celebrate May Day much as McPherson students do and May fetes and carnivals seem to have a big a part in the celebration at North Manchester as they do in McPherson.

The W. A. A. organization there invites high school girls in for a day of fun, just as Miss Lillian Warner’s proteges entertain local high school lassies.

But most students feel that the similarity stops there, for in Manchester student political “machines" control campus politics! The unscrupulous student politicians got a strong reprimand in the editorial column of “Oak Leaves”, the college student weekly.

The editorial columns of the Spec tator strangely have not felt the need for such admonition!

A problem which college officials here will probably not recognize has gained some importance on the Manchester campus. Students there are “griping” about their “grub”. The ever-vigilant “Oak Leaves” press again takes issue with the campus culprits, by devoting several valuable two-column inches accusing them of stealing catsup bottles! And after they “griped” about the food!


The Spectator Sees -

Playboy Minister Is Sharply Criticized By Alert Collegiate Editors

College editors are efphatic in their criticism of James H. R. Cromwell, United States Minister to Canada, because of his recent indiscreet speech, and they are equally emphatic in refusing to join him on the Allied band-wagon.

Key to the majority opinion was perhaps set by a recent widely read and far from favorable magazine article on Cromwell, for the U. S. Minister is treated like a fraternity pledge during “Hell Week” by many a college editorialist. “That a  man like James H. R. Cromwell can serve as American ambas- sador to Canada is clear proof of the cordial relations between the two countries,” says the Harvard Crimson, while The Dartmouth remarks: “It’s hard to take seriously a would-be diplomat who is trying so hard to be somebody that he gets himself comically out on a limb.”

However lightly Cromwell himself may be treated, there is little levity in the editorial consideration of the implications of his speech. The University of Iowa Daily Iowan thinks that Secretary of State Hull’s stinging rebuke of Cromwell is “a deserved refinder of the diplomat’s position”, and continues: “Cromwell knew when he spoke that he was pledged to a policy of neutrality. He defied orders from Washington about headquarters’ approval of all his utterances, on the grounds that as a private citizen he had a right to say what he wanted. He forgot, apparently, that the world would have no interest in his remarks if he were nothing more than a private citizen, and that any citizen who is a diplomat has special significance attached to what he says.” To this the Cooper Union Pioneer adds: “Those of us of military age would not feel too badly if Doris Duke’s playboy Cromwell were recalled lest he again put his foot in and our necks out. His recall would discourage any other would-be, self-constituted spokesman for the American people from jeopardising our neutral status.”

Criticized along with Cromwell is the American system of ambassadorial appointments. The University of Wisconsin Daily Cardinal says: “Precisely what Mr. Cromwell’s qualifications are, we do not know. He does have a lot of money, and that seems to be an easy way into diplomacy in this country. It is, however, a way that should be stopped up. Mr. Cromwell is proof of that.” The Harvard Crimson adds a ringing “Amen” to the Wisconsin paper’s remark with this pungent paragraph: “Underlying Cromwell’s blunder is a basic fault in the administration of our diplomatic sarvice. American ambassadors receive salaries far too small for the expenses which they are bound to incur as official representatives of the United States Government. The result quite naturally is that very few men can afford to accept the responsibility of diplomatic service and we must expect the consequences. But even under existing conditions, Messrs. Roosevelt and Hull should have been able to draw from the pork barrel a better appointment that than of the present tobacco-minister to Canada.”—A. C. P.

Pressure Groups Make Mass Hysteria Which Robs Democracy Of Individualism

Foes and critics of democarcy must sit back in their chairs and chuckle with glee when such pressure groups as the United States Peace committee make the solemn announcement that upon April 19th at 11 a. m. its one million members will strengthen democracy and keep the “Yanks over here.” Mass meetings, parades, chapels, radio broadcasts, and sundry rabble-rousing implements are to he used in bringing about this commendable achievement.

Just how mass meetings and oratorical hot air are going to preserve democracy is difficult to say. Democracy seems to be rather a slippery thing to cling to these days. The Finns preserved theirs for some time by hard work, straight thinking, and a minimum of rhetorical gabberwocky; they salvaged a part of it by some straight shooting and hard fighting. It isn’t difficult to imagine what would have happened to Finland long before this had it been under the protection of the airy-nary beardless tripe dispensers who shoot off their mouths for youth movements.

Around The Fireside

With Evelyn Saathoff

If you would like a novel that is unique and stimulating, and somewhat like an overture to a magnificent symphony read “Swann’s Way” by Marcel Proust, the first volume of Proust’s life work.

“Let’s Stay Married” by Perry Rohrer, Dean of Bethany Seminary sounds a little advanced for some of us, but it will furnish good philosophy for a rainy day. Some of the problems dealt with are disappointments in love, mother-in-laws, jealousy, etc.

An interesting new play is “The Lady of Belmont” by St. John Ervine. It is a comedy that portrays Portia from “The Merchant of Venice”. It is very entertaining.

I feel the seniors are in need of a little advice along the line treated by Frances Maule in “Your Next Job”. It tells you how to get a raise, what tactics to employ to advance in your work, what qualities to cultivate in order to earn promotion, etc. It might be that some of you folks who aspire to a job this summer would enjoy this hook.

Chinese Have Tough Time In College

Books, Equipment Is Meagre, Students Must Dodge Bombs

New York City—(ACP)—Do you think you’re having a hard time with College? If you do, try getting your education the Chinese way.

According to a writer in the Columbia University Spectator, you start off by cutting your food allowance down to 15c a week-including all meals. For shelter you can spend 5c a week, if you can’t find anything cheaper, but you must plan your budget so you don’t spend more than $10 in a year, for your entire support; food, clothing, shelter, and books. Dorms hold 30 to a room.

Classes start at 6:30 A. M. That is so that they’ll be over by ten when “Japanese visitors” are likely to begin arriving. When that happens you run to a nearby cave, if your campus is lucky enough to have a cave, and classes, if unfinished, continue in there until the bombs stop falling.

Books and college equipment are very little bother. Most of such ma-—there are a few things they could do. They might keep out of pressure groups whose chief aim is the wringing of more and more subsidies from a government which is practically hanging on the ropes. They might think less about improvement of the mass and more about the individual. And they might do something for the government instead of begging the government to do everything for them.

Let the youth of today seek himself out alone. Let him develop his own thoughts unhampered by propaganda and mass hysteria. Let him seek confidence in himself by plumbing that great reservoir of righteousness and wisdom which lies beneath the materialistic wants of less work, higher wages, and more subsidies. Then when he is assembled with his fellows, he can become a useful, efficent part of the progress toward democracy—a democracy that is attained not through massing in stupid mobs, but through the hard and intelligent labor that will gradually eliminate the social and economic ills of America.—University Daily Kansan.

At The End Of Euclid-


By Donna Jean Johnson

Professor Dell, since the girls in Women’s Council are re-upholstering the furniture for the Y room, presented them with several bushels of hair. Trimming from that one-time mustache, no doubt.

Flash!! Forty seniors skipped chapel Wednesday morning. Whatever will happen to their reputations!

At last Evelyn Saathoff mustered courage to ask a question which all the juniors would like to ask, “Will the same questions be asked on the comprehensives next year?” Of course Dr. Boitnott’s answer was "No", but had he said yes, there would have been a general stampede on the part of every junior to find out just what the questions were.


What in the world has happened to Ernest Reed? The other day Dr.

Olson, after stating that United States, France, and England had high living standards, asked Ernest to name a country with a low living standard. To which earnest Ernie innocently answered “France".

My! oh My! These parties Kubin does have! Marsha Prather has moved into Kitty’s room!

It does seem strange, reports one of the members of vocal ensemble, that the bus was so crowded that the aisle seats had to be used, yet when they started home from Kansas City (and after dark too) there was so much room that the aisle seats weren’t necessary.


terial was destroyed in the eastern universities. Since then the remainder of your college has travelled about three thousand miles on foot and set itself up in a few old farmhouses in the west. Here, the information available comes out of the professor’s knowledge, and a few notes and books that were light enough to carry. For recreation you can take turns with your thousand colleagues, playing with the one has-


Hive self-interest in keeping at peace. They will duly place this copy before the American people as they alone best can.

“If the product be meritorious, neither you nor I dare say that the response would not be proportionate to the response to any other expert advertising effort. To know securely that our nation was guaranteed to peace for at least a year would cer- tainly be worth a dollar a head. Advertising could do that at regular rates. Advertising could do it splendidly in my judgment, for a quarter of that sum, but I don’t want to see advertising handicapped for want of funds with which to seek out every citizen and convert him. from a passive indifferent to our product, into an active addict.

“That is my idea of a major task, worth tackling. It is high time that  open-faced American advertising  taught the Goebbels-minded propagandists an object lesson in public education,” he added.


He Would Sell Peace To America

College Student Wants To Launch Huge Advertising Campaign

Williamstown, Mass. — (ACP)

Sell peace to the United States through a giant advertising program to be financed by asking each citizen to pay a dollar for the campaign’s expenses.

This was the new peace proposal made to Williams College undergraduates by Paul Hollister, executive vice-president of R. H. Macy & Co. of New York City.

“Using the classic technique of modern advertising, let us buy one-fifteenth of the total time and resources of the advertising people and media owners of the country and mobilize them,” said the department store executive.

“They will prepare and carry on the most educational, dramatic and urgent campaign of which they are capable, but their product will not be a can of food, a bar of soap, or a motor car or a health examination. Their product will be peace—America’s ac-

Last Wednesday evening a large group enjoyed a meeting of the For- ensic Club which was called to order by the president, Ernest Reed. John Dietrich ended his inimitable reading, “Der Oak und der Vine,” by saying, “Tis better that those oaks (men) and vines (women) should cling together.”

After a cornet solo by Bob Kingsley, Gladys Wiggins gave an interesting review of ‘‘The Country Lawyer.” by Bellamy Partridge. Miss Wiggins said that this is a true story of the professional life of Samuel Partridge, the author’s father.

After narrating a few outstanding incidents in the country lawyer’s life, which stimulated her listeners to want to read the book, she quoted the author’s opinion of his father’s worth: ‘‘When folks were in a little trouble, they got down on their knees and talked it over with God, but when they were in a lot of trouble they talked it over with my father.”

Famous Author To Speak Near Here

Clarence Streit Will Be On Faculty Of Kansas Institute At Bethel

One of the most outstanding members of the faculty of the Kansas Institute of International Relations to be held at Bethel college, Newton, from June 11, to 21, is Clarence K. Streit.

Mr. Streit is best known for his book ‘‘Union Now”—a remarkable book advocating a federal union of democracies like our union of 48 states as a first step toward world union, the abolition of war, depression, and loss of freedom. This book has already been published in the United States, England, France, and Sweden, and is being translated into German. A movement has been founded on the plan outlined in this book which includes active centers in numerous cities and colleges in the United States.

In years of experience abroad, Clarence K. Streit, though born in 1896, is one of the half-dozen oldest American correspondents in Europe. Born in Missouri, he went to Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar and studied also at the Sorbonne, Paris. He became a foreign correspondent in 1920, covering the Turko-Greek war the advent of Fascism, and many other internationally significant events for the Philadelphia Ledger till 19 34. Since then he has been with the New York Times.

Some of the lecture subjects on which Mr. Streit will speak are: “America’s Answer to ‘Mein Kampf’,” “Freedom Through ‘Union Now’,” “League of Nations—or Federal Union,” and ‘‘Life in the Inter-Democracy Federal Union.”

not appear because it was not recognized. The college will now be included in the lists of these accredited agencies.

"We hope to recognize that the college has not completely ‘arrived’, that there are other and greater goals to attain, but we believe this has been one worth striving for and that it will mean much to the community to have in its midst a college whose work is recognized by one of the strongest standardizing agencies in America.

"The achievement of this goal has been made possible by the cooperative effort of everyone connected with the college, especially the faculty, trustees, field men and all other helpers. The fine cooperative support of the city of McPherson for the last decade, through the Booster Banquet in particular, has been of in-estimable value in assisting the efforts of those at the college."

Dr. Schwalm and Prof. J. H. Fries were in Chicago nearly a week prior to the acceptance of the college into membership in the North Central.

Tip To Coming Students

Austin, Texas. — (ACP) — Here’s a tip to high school seniors. If you’re in the top quarter of your class, college won’t be hard on yon. but look out if you’re among the lowest 25 per cent.

University of Texas scholastic figures show that high school students in the lop 25 per cent of their class last year passed 88 per cent of their freshman work. Second and third quarters passed 6 9 and 53 per cent respectively, but the lowest groups could salvage only 32 per cent of their freshman work at the university.

"Quench Not The Spirit”

Dr. Burton Metzler Spoke To Chapel Group Last Wednesday Morn

Using as his theme "Quench Not the Spirit”, Dr. Burton Metzler, speaking briefly in chapel Wednesday morning, said that the lesser goods can smother out noble aspirations and high impulses. Especially in youth, aspiration and impulse occur.

Jack Bowker

Referring to the hundredth Psalm, the parable of the sowing of the seeds, and the story of the rich young ruler he pointed out that one can be cheated out of obtaining the, heights by the medicore things and he time they take.

To the question “Why do we both-er?" he gives the answer that we are made for the heights and can not be satisfied until we rise. Hearts need to be strengthened by contact j with the high and mighty Lord.

Two Fooled Slot Machine

Hanover, N. H.— (ACP)—Two Dartmouth college kitchen workers recently did what man has been trying to do since the inception of the pay telephone—fool a slot machine —when they jarred the mechanism of the dining hall nickelodeon while moving it. The machine started to play of its own accord and reeled off 150 selections without benefit of nickels.

Amazed, waiters, workers, and a few dazed freshmen encircled the musical cornucopia, watched it play continuously for three hours, went home whistling “The Man Who domes Around.” A distributing firm in Fairlee, Vt., was called to repair it. Meanwhile an ironic note was attached to the machine: "Out of Order.”

Cheerleaders To Be Elected Soon

Nominations Are To Be By Petitions; Will Be In Order Next Monday

The student election of next year's

cheerleaders will take place Thursday, May 2, 1940, it was announced late yesterday by Stephen Stover, president of the student council. All regularly enrolled students of McPherson college are entitled to vote for the three cheerleaders.

Nominations will be by petition this year. The nominations may be circulated from next Monday to April 24. At that time the nominations will close. Petitions should be circulated as soon as posible after Monday, it was stated by Stover.

One rule on the election of cheerleaders is that only two of the cheerleaders may be of the same sex. That is, only two men or two women may be elected. The cheerleaders can not all be men or all women.

All the present cheerleaders are eligible for reelection.

Pittsburgh, Pa.— (ACP)—Briefly, here's a story and a half in a peanut shell.

All the energy the average person uses in his thinking during one day could be obtained by eating one peanut, says Dr. E. Elfred Wolf, associate professor of biology at the University of Pittsburgh. The average college sutdent, however, uses that much energy in one hour's sustained mental work.

The average college student takes from 1,200 to 2,400 calories a day for mere subsistence. Anything he does—even eating—must be added to this basal metabolism figure.

The average football player, for instance, needs enough energy to raise six gallons of water from freezing to boiling point, Dr. Wolf added.

You could talk for two hours on the energy you need to eat your food everyday. Maybe that’s the origin of the saying, “She’d rather talk than eat.”

Then, the student who plays Bach on the piano adds only 4 0 calories to his basal metabolism; if he plays one of Teddy Wilson’s musical gyrations, his figure will be upped to 560 calories, which is the same number used when trotting down to the corner pool room.

Wrestling is by far the most strenuous sport says Dr. Wolf. It would take 125 hours of thinking to use up the same energy that you must have for one hour’s wrestling.

A note for girls who wish to reduce: If you eat enough proteins, these proteins will carry away the excess calories which you have eaten. Excess calories, yon know, are responsible for that excess weight.

Lessons Belter Now

Alma, Mich. —(ACP)— Elimination of final examinations at Alma College as an experiment for the next two semesters has been announced by Prof. Roy Hamilton, secretary of the faculty.

In explaining this inovation, Prof. Hamilton said that the change was being made with a view to stimulating students to keep up on their daily work. Frequent tests will be given on the basis of daily work, he said.

Primary reason for the elimination of final semester examinations is the practice of a great many students to neglect their work during the semes-

Two Meets Held By Yesterday

Two track meets have already been run off. and one tennis meet will be held today.. Yesterday the track team went to Sterling to encounter Sterling’s track team. The tennis team to Bethany today to encounter the Swedes.

Bethany Is Probably Toughest

The Bethany Swedes are probably the strongest tennis team the Bulldogs will meet in a dual meet this year. Last year Bethany won two dual tennis meets from McPherson and was the only conference school to defeat McPherson in a dual tennis meet. Three of Bethany's “big four” of last year are on this year's team. They are Birger Olson, John Altenborg, and Art Rolander, a McPherson product. Bethany also has other “prospects” this year.

Tennis Team Lacks Facilities

The main difficulty of this year’s tennis team is the lack of facilities. The tennis courts as yet are in no shape to play on. The physical education building is not open to the tennis players for evening practice, nor can the tennis aspirants practice ter. and then stay up late during the last few weeks in an effort to cram for the tsts. This system Prof. Hamilton scored as being injurious both to the student’s health and to the educational interest of any college.

Under this new system of classroom examinations based on daily work, all students will be graded three times a semester, as has been the custom for freshmen.

At the same time that he announced this new system, Prof. Hamilton said that it is planned to give a standard comprehensive examination to all students at the end of their senior year. Such an examination, he said, would cover the entire college course, subjects of each student, with special reference given to major china

In the years preceding the World War, annual remittances to Italy by Italian emigrants amounted to 20,000,000 pounds sterling, according to Dr. Paul H. Wueller of Pennsylvania State College.

daily in the afternoon, for sometimes the gym is reserved for women’s athletics.

Meet Bethany Again Tuesday

There will be a tennis meet next Tuesday on the local courts, if they are in any condition by then. Bethany will play a return meet at that time, and the outcome of that meet, although unpredictable, can largely be judged from the outcome of today’s meet. .

Bethel Here Wednesday

McPherson’s track team will have a dual meet with Bethel on the local field next Wednesday, according to the present plans. Last year McPherson defeated Bethel in track, despite the superhuman efforts of Friesen, Bethel’s one-man track team.

City Tennis Club Meets

This evening at 7:30 the McPherson Tennis Club will meet at the Y. M. C. A. to organize for the coming year. Each year the club has several tournaments and encourages city competition and encounters from nearby towns. Anyone interested in tennis is invited to come to the meeting.

just Plain Celery With Lots Of

Salt Wins Basketball Games


Columbus, Ohio -(ACP) —For some people it's carrots, for Popeye it’s spinach, but for the Ohio State University’s basketball team the secret of strength and success is just plain celery.

A few hours before a recent game, the supermen of the hardwood sat down to a light dinner. Big Bill Sat-tler was the first man to reach for


his knife and fork, lie found the knife but the fork bad gone with the wind. All the other players likewise experienced the same phenomena. All the meshmen roared as one, “How can we eat steak without a fork?'

“You’re not eating steak tonight, boys,” beamed Coach Olsen, “steak is a thing of the past. Tonight you’re


having toast, honey, tea and celery. Celery with lots of salt.”

Now a basketball player never argues with the couch if he wants to keep on being a basketball player.

So the boys ate celery with lots of salt.

No one, however (not even a basketball player), is going to eat celery with lots of salt without asking why. So they asked why and were


informed that according to a recent scientific survey made at. Harvard University salt and celery are good things for people who want to win basketball games.

After their crunchy repast, the quintet won the game, 58 to 52 which certainly speaks well for cal-ery, to say nothing of the team.
