No Nobel
Peace Prize
It has been announced that the
Nobel Peace Prize ia not to be award-
ed this year. In the first place
unfortunately it is pointed out that
there are no outstanding candidates for the honor this year.
The award is to be held over until 1940. It is hoped that at
that time there will be international peace.
Alfred Nobel who as a chemist and inventor perfected
dynamite and T. N. T. and their uses is responsible for the
prize. He evidently realized how the products of his brain
would be utilized to blot out human life. This happened long
before warfare became that of chemicals. So Nobel the
"attar" of dynamite made provisions that his brain child
will not be used for wartime purposes. Of course the only
way to prevent this is to prevent war.
The Peace Prize is about $50000 and is awarded at Oslo
each year. A candidate for the prize must be proposed as
such in writing by some duly qualified person. With the
prize a gold medal and a diploma are awarded.
Americans to receive the Nobel Peace Prize in the past
are Theodore Roosevelt Elihu Root Woodrow Wilson Charles
G. Davis F. B. Kellogg and Jane Adams. It is to be noted
that representatives of America have won the prize more
often than those of any other one nation. This is in keeping
with our inherent ideals of peace. America stands for free-
dom and peace is freedom. But because of her foreign policy
America could not traverse the waters to try to make peace
among the warring European nations. Hence no peace prize
will be awarded for the year 1989; but we feel that it would
have gone to some American had there been a prize given.
In The Mood
Let us have more intramural games! We can think of
no better way to stimulate spirit on the Daniel Baker campus
and to bring the various clans and clubs into a feeling of
cooperation and of fellowship.
Besides the mental good which these games accomplish
the physical side of the subject is not to be ignored. During
school session few of us have an opportunity to get any
exercise whatsoever except those members of the athletic
department. It is a well-known fact that physical exercise
stimulates brain functioning and keeps down disease and ill-
new which keep us from our classes.
So we think that any time spent in working out for foot-
ball baseball or tennis is well-spent. Boys of the White
House will be grateful to have the opportunity to coach and
referee games for experience and we see no reason what-
soever why there should not be intramural games all the rest
of the year.
This certainly applies to girls also. Girls feel the need
of exercise and realize the value of cooperation among clubs
aa a rule more than boys.
Let's get behind this worthy movement and do our part
toward making Daniel Baker a better all-round school. We
commend those clubs already participating in this type of
activity and hope more organizations will follow their ex-
ample. Let's have more intramural games !

Sound nutty to thia casual observer.
Joe Redden had a nice pleasant evening this
week when several of his lady friends came to visit
him at the same time. However It appears that
the youngest of the Morris clan has triumphed. He
will take dinner with the family come Yulettde.
Bounds serious!
Flash! The hottest jitterbug team to make Its
appearance in the village in recent days is the com-
bination of the editor of this weekly rag and Jiving
Jan Owen. They put on a one-couple dance at the
Tau Kappa affair at the lake. At least we couldn't
see anyone else for them.
We saw an interesting discussion between Lee
Stevens and our student proxy Bill Brookover the
other evening. It appears that they were talking
over the subject of "to go steady or not to go
steady." Guess who waa in favor of what.
Billie Maxie says "I'm behaving." O. K. with
us but not much news for this department
Bobby Snider says that he hasn't been courting
anything except the play. A little lovtn' would be
prefered to being a butler in a mellerdrammer.
Lydia Lee Armstrong has hooked Freshman
Don Robason. See girls? It just takes a little time
and patience and . . . well your firla know more
about that than wa do.
Janie Conway made a remark in Bible class
that she had no matrimonial intentions. Aw Janie
you're kidding.
Harry Kilg ore seems to think that the spillway
at the lake is a private place. We found out every-
thing Harry.
The combination of Imena Brown and Nila
She took my hand and loving care
She took my costly flowers so rare
She took my candy and my books
She took my eye with meaning looks
She took all that yours truly could buy
And thon she took the other guy!
Only one man in a thousand is a leader of man;
tha other 999 are followers of women.

THE EDUCATION OP A MODERN CO-ED
(University Style)
She learned to love
She learned to hate
She learned a Ford
Could carry eight.
She learned to smoke
And how to tell
Wood alcohol
By taste or smell.
She learned to neck
And break a date
She's ready now to graduate.
Service Man: "How much gas."
Kunltz: "One gallon."
S. M.: "What's the idea weaning it?"
Prof. Hart: "You missed class yesterday didnt
you?"
Paul Gregory: "Not in the least. Not in the
least!"
CLOSING THOUGHT: Time waits for no man
-but forever for a woman.
Adams still flourishes. They say that they could
use a little publicity . . . Does this help any girls?
Rumors of a feud in the dorm . . . What do you
know? We ain't saying anything.
Boy! Have we got a swelled head! Laat Tues-
day The Campus Reporter read an excerpt from
thia column on his radio program. Did we feel good!
