Heard In Chapel

"Nation Has Eyes

Focused On Youth”

—The Youth Problem and the World Crisis" was discussed by Dale Stucky, president of the Student Council, in chapel Friday.

He stated that according to the views of certain individuals, youth could not be separated from the rest of the people of the earth as a special class, "The eyes of the nation are focused on youth of today.” It was stated. "It appears to be a fixed stare."

Of the speakers that talk of youth. there are two general classes: those who find youth lurking and those who find youth superior to preceding generations; but both speakers end in the same way. They challenge youth. They exhort them to the upward toll.

Stucky spoke of the world as being an oyster which is being offered to youth of today, but added that it is perhaps the smelliest ever handed to any generation. He said that youth is accepting the oyster without complaint, refuses to be stamped-

He closed by saying that regardless of what happened, youth of today, when they become adults, can write articles on the youth problem.

Wayland Makes Comparative Study Of Napoleon, Hiller

A comparative study of Adolf Hitler and Napoleon Bonaparte was made by Dr. F. F. Wayland in chapel Monday. "How future historians will evaluate the two conquerors cannot be decided now," he stated.

Several points of similarity can be found between the two men. Both Hitler and Napoleon were dreamers, opportunism, were unncru-puious, had no four of God or man, and both were masters of lying and deception.

Some of the points of difference were as follows. Hitler has ordinary mental power. Napoleon had extra-ordinary mental power. Napoleon was far superior to Hitler as a military leader. The so-called "blitz-kreig" is a Napoleonic invention.

Hitler is waging a war of revenge; Napoleon dif not. Hitler is a destroyer of human rights; Napoleon created human rights. Napoleon made important contributions to education. Hitler has detracted edu-cation and has neglected cultural subjects.

Wayland closed by saying that Napoleon at 0ne time contemplated an invasion of England, but found England's sea power a strong op-ponent, and today, perhaps, Hitler may meet his Waterloo in England.

"There Are Saints

In Caesar's Household"

Dr. Marlin Harvey, national di-rector of youth of the Methodist Episcopal Church of Zion, talked in chapel Wednesday on the subject of "Christians in a Pagan World," "Even Caesura household contain-ed Christians." Dr. Harvey stated.

"We must recognize that which is not permanent. We live too much in the headlines. We do not realize which of these things are permanent. We live too much in the headlines. We do not realize which of these things are permanent and which are merely passing ideas.

"It is usually stated that a person

person. An idea uses a person rather than a person uses an ideal. We must examine ourselves and decide

"If we look about us at people who are living Christian lives, we discover that it is a small group, but that this small group has a strong power. You and I will find ourselves a small group in a pagan world

There is an old Chinese proverb that states. It is better to light one candle in the darkness than to stand around and curse the dark-ness. It is up to us to light one candle

in this world of darkness, rather than stand around and curse the darkness for all of the saints salute you, especially those in Cae-sar's Household."

Kerlin Picks Bowker For Photo Editor

Bowker Gained Valuable Experience Last Year; Slifer In Copy Editor

Jack Bowker, Quadrangle photographer of last year, was made photography editor of this year's Quadrangle, announced Virginia Kerlin, editor of the Quadrangle. Bowker was chosen because of his last year's experience, Kerlin stated.

Working under him are Harold Bowman, Wilmer Brubaker, and John Trostle, the other Quadrangle photographers. Although snapshots will probably be accepted from other sources, the four photographers wil: account for most of the miscellaneous photography of the 1941 Quadrangle.

Raymond Slifer, sophomore here, was chosen copy editor by Miss Kerlin. Slifer will be in charge of Quadrangle copy, which includes all write-ups of the various organizations and the other miscellaneous stories essential to an annual. He will assign stories and see that the assignments are carried out.

Other writers and able assistants will probably be drafted into the work of the Quadrangle later, although as yet there has not been much work for anyone on the editorial staff except the editor,

Wheeler Talks On Non-Violent Direct Action

Henry A. Wheeler, field secretary for the American Friends Service Committee in the Rocky Mountain re-

S. C. M. commissions last Tuesday morning upon the subject "Non-violent Direct Action.”

Wheeler pointed out that the policy of non-resistance is not a passive program, but calls for action. It does not involve cooperation with the enemy in case a country is in-vaded, but does mean disrupting the

calling telephone wires and elimin-ating transportation facilities. A short forum was conducted by Wheeler following his talk.

Freshmen Upset Dehate Dope, Defeat Sophs

Maxine Ruchlen, Wayne Geisert. Meet Veteran Seniors Next Tuesday Scoring an upset in the usually staid interclass debate tournament, Maxine Ruehlen and Wayne Geisert, debaters tor the freshman class, defeated the sophomore debaters, Ernest Peterson and Raymond Slifer. Opposing the affirmative side of the varsity debate question, the freshmen successfully stated the negative case.

Next Tuesday eveing at 6:30 the freshmen will oppose the veteran sen-iors for the interclass debate cham-pionship of the school. Last year Stucky and Don Newkirk, then the Junior debaters won the school championship. This year the fresh-man team of Ruehlen and Geisert will tangle with the winners of last year's tourney to determine this year's champions.

Sponsored by the Forensic Club, the interclass debates are also held to prepare students for the debate try-outs, which will be held November 5 for the men and November 6 for the women.

College Students Are Not Atheistic

Kent, Ohio—(ACP)— Contradict the popular idea that college peo-ple are atheistic because they do not attend church. Dr. John F. Cuber, professor of sociology at Kent State university, points out that students who do not attend church manifest many traditional doctrinal and moral views of the church.

The Spectator Sees—

Army. Navy Don't Have Monoply On Beauts, Say Those Who Eat In Dormitory

"The army and the navy have a monopoly on beans, and the army has most of the navy’s" is not wholly true, in apite of the fact that it was stated in an afterdinner speech in the dining hall recently. Students residing in Arnold Hall arid in Fahnestock Hall are beginning to doubt the veracity of the humorous statement.

Students residing in Arnold Hall and Fahnestock Hall have the fortune (or the misfortune) of eating in the college dining hall. As one student stated, “Macollege life would not be normal, if there wasn’t the dorm food to gripe about.” Be that as it may, many students “gripe'’ and want their “gripes” to be heard

Students are not given much choice in the matter of dormitory food. They reside in the dormitory largely for social purposes of college life. After the initial semester payment is made, a college student must, eat his money up if he wants to get his money’s worth.

As a rule students do not object to this principle, but they do not like the idea of eating one really good meal, then eating leftovers and “stuff the rest of the week. Possibly that is stretching the point a bit. and it should be admitted that the dining hall does serve about five good meals a week, in the opinion of the students who eat there. The average meal does not arouse much complaint in itself. But when the gen-eral does not improve from breakfast to breakfast, or supper to supper, then students begin to discuss the situation quite vehemently.

While the meal discussions do not accomplish much, since they are not heard by the people who can do something about it, they are a good indication of student opinion. One student

said, "I wish Miss A...... (the one most often blamed for the

quality of the meals) would come and eat in the dining hall for a

week or three,” in the hope that she would then improve the meals.

Again, it is illuminating that many students come here and gain weight, despite the objections they voice concerning the meals. But the objections as usually stated do not concern the nutritional value (sour milk has great nutritional value), but they object to eating things which taste or smell sour. And scientists say that a great proportion of our sense of taste is in our sense of smell.

To Be Conducive. To Study, A College Library I

Need Not Subdue All Conversation

"A library should be conducive to study” is an axiom ac-cepted by all McPherson college students. Just what is meant by that axiom is disputed by several.

Few students think that, a college library should be a place of absolute quiet, as some city libraries are. On the other hand most students think that a little, low conversation should not disturb the concentration of persons studying. Oftentimes a short voiced question is the quickest way to find out a point at issue.

If a college library attempts to subdue all conversation— and it seems that our college library does it is not wholly conducive to study. A student will find studying in the library less beneficial than study where he can ask questions and will study elsewhere than the library if at all possible. This is not all hair-brained theory, but it has too often proved the case for students here, else we would not want to harp on the subject.

After a reprimand for talking in the library, a student is not going to feel, "I'm sorry I made too much noise,” but will probably say to himself, “O-kay, o-kay, I didn’t want to study in your d....library anyway.”

On the other hand we do not think that the library should be a social center, such as it has been at various times in the past. We merely object to being reprimanded for conversation in an attempt to study faster.

Dorm Food Heads List of Pet Peeves Of Students: Library Also Mentioned

would it interest you to know that there is at least one person on Mac-

his* “Pet Peeves"? In fact, if you were a “teacher's pet,’ a "cockey boy,” or a “flirt" you would find those who object to you.

Various and sundry objects on the campus were mentioned by those who were asked to name their pet peeves in registering at Fahnestock Hall's Open House. As could be expected, “dorm food" headed the list. Then followed “people who throw bread at the table", "breaking things in chem-

"The library” was mentioned more times as a pet peeve than any other

thing.

Kampus Kapers—

| By Isabel Crumpacker

Professor Mohler staunchly declar-es that the overturned canoe in his back yard is not one of his possessions. Incidentally, the vessel's name is “Pluto Ill" Judging by the looks of this one, we wonder what the first two looked like.

The other day we round Ted Washburn scratching beneath the seat in the back of his car with the dust flying.

“Goodness no, I’m just hunting my^: books. I don't know how they got into this predicament!"

Lillus Berg looks “right smart” playing tennis. He swats the balls about like he swats files—waits until they come to a standstill. Seriously though, Lillus plays a fair game of tennis—If you watch him.

Talking about flies, all flies had better beware of venturing too close to Darwin Culver in chapel. The only reason Darwin comes triweekly to the assembly is to catch files— and he never fouls either!

It you see a lot of bags and trunks leaving the dorms, don't think that someone is moving away. It's just probably the laundry going home to he washed. My, my, what is home without it mutter?

Oh thrills and heart throbs! When the Bell Telephone Company was hero Monday to present its demonstration. Bryce Breneman was the object of their experiments. While listening to his heart beat through an amplifying system, it sounded smooth and steady---that is, until Lillian Fulkerson was called to hold his hand. It then sounded like a score of tom toms in an Indian ceremonial dance.

With tests coming up, remember this quotation of the week—Birds of a feather flunk together.

Chem Club Hears Interesting Lecture

Lecturers Bring Equipment From Kansas

City For Demonstration

"Backstage in Telephone Re-search," a story of the telephone laboratories was the subject of a very interesting demonstrated lecture presented to the Chemistry Club last Monday afternoon.

Albert Butcher, manager of the McPherson branch of the Bell Tele^-phone Co., was instrumental in bringing the demonstration to the campus. He introduced Floyd Roberts and J. A. Elliott, who presented the lecture. Roberts operated the equipment, while Elliott was the lecturer. Both of these men are employes of the Bell Telephone Co. at

Kansas City and they spend their time traveling about giving lectures of this nature.

A large crowd was present, and the demonstration was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone as it was uniquely presented. Many phases of the tele-phone Industry were presented that the average person knows nothing

Wesleyan Still Tops Conference

McPherson Is In Tie

For Second Place

With Baker, Bethany

Kansas Wesleyan is still on top of the conference with Baker, Bethany, and McPherson tied for second place. Bethel and College of Emporia are in the cellar with no conference wins.

In a hard fought game Kansas Wesleyan and Ottawa battled to a 6 to 6 tie. The game was featured by outstanding play on both sides. Smith and Dupree were outstanding for Wesleyan, while Dryden and Ramsey were outstanding for the Braves. This is the second success-

sive year Wesleyan has held Ottawa to a tie. Last year the score was 0 to 0.

In the game at Emporia last Fri-day night Baker beat College of Emporia 9 to 0. This game ran true to form, and Baker's margin of su-premacy was more than the score in-dicates.

In the only non-conference game Bethany invaded Nebraska to play the Doane college Tigers. They came out of the game on the short end of a 25 to 6 score. The Tigers were superior to the Swedes in every department of the game.

Alumni News

Among those alumni who were on the campus for the homecoming were Mr. and Mrs. Charles Lengle and family from Salina Mr. and Mrs. Harold Crist from Enterprise, Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Kaufman from Buhler. Mr. and Mrs. LaVerne York and Mr. Ivan Herr from Abilene. Dave McGill from Halstead, and Mr, and Mrs. Guy Hayes from Chapman.

One event that every freshman looks forward to is the guarding of the campus against the Swede men-

ile between the Towheads and the Bulldogs." For the past two nights forty boys tinder the able frosh prexy, Alvin (I-Catch-Em-You-Shave) Klotz, have been doing their best to keep Macampus free of these semi-albino marauders.

The watch began at 9:00 P. M. Wednesday night and continued, running in three-hour shifts until 6:00 A. M. Thursday morning. A like watch was kept Thursday night. Guards were placed at the stadium, at the gym, by the gas houses, and in front of the administration building.

In times past the watch has been relaxed and this usually resulted in the painting of part of the campus by the "Light Heads." Last year a pair of freshmen stepped over to a well-known den of iniquity to partake of a bit of refreshment. Upon their return to the field "Swedes '39" was pointed in beautiful brown paint on

Bernard Nordling, who has been a patient at McPherson hospital, is seen once more on Maccampus. But, one need not be told that he is back. He could tell this by the happy, relieved gleam on Virginia's face. Well, anyway, “Bernie", welcome back!

You've heard the old saying, “I'll bring the milk in when I come home." Lois Lawson goes to a more extreme and brings the milkman in too. (Con-fidentally, though, she says he is just about her brother-in-law). That at least makes a good story.

By the way, did you know that Dorothy Gross won second place in the Idaho state ping-pong tourna-

Bulldogs Try For Third Conference Win

Meet Bethany Swedes

Tonight To Knock Off

Conference Contender

With another victory tucked under their belts, the Bulldog travel to Lindsborg tonight to tangle with the Bethany College Swedes, their traditional rivals. The game should prove to be a more vital game than it has been for several years as the two teams are deadlocked in second place behind the conference leading Kansas Wesleyan Coyotes.

The winner of tonight's contest will bounce into the thick of the conference race, which is closer than it has been for several years. Each team to credited with two wins and one loss so far this season and from all indications it will be one of the closest games in Kansas tonight.

Last year's game between the two

teams ended in a 0 to 0 dead lock, with both teams threatening during the evening on various occasions. The year before the Bulldogs were downed by the Swedes to the tune of 12 to 0.

Because of the traditional rivalry which has existed between the neighboring colleges for years, the Bethany game is one of the highlights of every season. A large McPherson following is expected to go to Linds-borg this evening for the affair. So far this season Bethany has lost her only conference game to Kansas Wesleyan, and she holds victories over Baker and College of Emporia. The win over Baker was by a one-point margin.

The Bulldogs continued their drive upward in the standings last week with a 9 to 6 over a fighting Bethel eleven. The sterling lineup for this evening's contest is not expected to differ greatly from that of last week, as it seemed to function well at that time. The ends who will probably start for the Bulldogs are Rollin Wanamaker, three-year letter-

tackle positions Russell Reinecker and Merlin "Slug" Myers are expected to start. Raymond "Dutch’' Goer-ing, veteran guard who played an excellent game against Bethel, and Bob Conk, another stellar guard, will be starting guards.

KCAC Race Has Five Contenders

Bethel, Now In Conference Cellar, Is Greatly

Underrated By Robert Burkholder

With the passing of every week the conference race becomes closer. Five teams are still in the running for the title. The games last week did not change the conference standings much except to shove College of Emporia and Bethel deeper in the cellar.

the McPherson college Bulldogs invade Lindsborg to meet the Swedes in

their annual struggle. Both teams have won two and lost one in conference competition, and the winner of this game has an excellent chance of winning the title. The Bulldogs beat a much underrated Bethel team last week, while Bethany journeyed to Nebraska to play Doane in a non-conference game. Bethany was on the short end of a 25 to 6 score. This will be a very close game, but we believe the Bulldogs have the power and spirit to win this one.

In another important conference game Baker invades Newton. Bethel

they did not have a scoring punch when needed. Baker is tied with Bethany and McPherson for second place with two wins and one loss and will need to win this game to stay in the running. Although Baker will

call this game about a tossup with Bethel having a good chance of getting in the win column.

In the other conference game College of Emporia invades Salina to play Kansas Wesleyan. The College of Emporia lost to Baker last week while Kansas Wesleyan was tying Ottawa. This game should be won easily by the Coyotes who are setting

year and is still looking for its first conference victory.

In a non-conference game Ottawa journeys to Alton, Illinois, to play Shurtleff college. There is not much known of Shurtleff college, so we'll let you pick this one.

From the McPherson standpoint, that tie last week was the best thing that could have happened in the Wes-leyan-Ottawa contest. As it now stands the Bulldogs can take the

ing three games, and the only other

it would be Baker. If Ottawa would have won she could also share in it. If Wesleyan would have won (and we still are supposing that Mac wins her next three games) she would not

ly the Bulldogs might have a chance to knock her out of the race.

Bethel Graymaroons should have no difficulty in getting used to home-coming celebrations. Beginning with last week's game with McPherson they have four homecoming games in a row, today's being with Baker at Baldwin,

Westerman of the Graymaroons can take more punishment and come

which we have seen this year. There has been quite a lot of discussion about the safely last week. With the ball going one of the end gone as it did with Bethel kicking, the only pos-sible thing which it could have been

counted is a safely, regardless of who fell on the ball after it went outside.

Women Have Tennis Tourney

The Recreational Club, led by Ramona Fries, has started their tennis tournament. This is the only women’s tennis tournament that will be held this year. Because there were so many in the tournament it was felt that there would only be time to play one set each match rather than the usual two out of three. This is an el-imination tournament with consola

Jack Vetter had a punt average in

the Bethel game which anyone would feel proud of. And after considering that Jack bad a sprained ankle—

Well, that is kicking. Rollin Wana-makcr will captain the Bulldogs in their fight against the Swedes tonight. Wanamaker has played a lot of good ball for the Bulldogs and certainly deserves the honor.

Everyone is glad to hear that Paul Dannelley is working out with the squad. Paul made a letter here his freshman year, and has had a lot of football experience. He has played in the backfield at times, but his usual position has been tackle. He has looked good in practices this week.

The Lovett Drug store, the place where "Squeak" does his soda jerk-

and the coaches Tuesday night after skull practice. They invited them all to the store and gave everyone as much ice cream as they could eat. They averaged about a pint apiece, (Icc cream)

Coach Hayden again emphasized that training is one of the most impersisted in breaking training rules there would be several new starters this evening.
