DO SOMETHING
'"l-MIEKE seems to be a marked ten-
A dency on the Rice campus to start
agitation for new ideas and new move-
ments, which, of course, us very, very
nice. The chief trouble, however, lies
in the (act that nothing ever happens.
Weeks of argument and dissension
eventually culminate in oblivion. Things
remain in their old status, unaltered
and unmodified by campus politics.
The Rice student body is not com-
pact enough to put over ail idea and
carry it through. Instead, it i« torn to
pieces by different factions with petty
quarrel.1- The chief function of politi- |
tail parties, theoretically, is to con- !
reive constructive ideas and plans, to
present them to the people lor the [
majority vote, and ultimately to bring j
something to pats. Actually, however,
politics has become a purely personal j
instrument of campus aspirants rather
than a medium of student expression.
At present, several measures ue
being agitated at the University. The
swimming pool, abolition ot the com-
pulsory blanket tax for voters and of-
fice holders, appointment of publica-
tion editors upon a competitive basis,
and an appropriation for Autry house, ,
■tie but some of the questions which
have been recently in the public eye.
We can not help feeling a certain I
curiosity concerning the outcome of
these movements. Will these ques-
tions suffer the fate of their predeces- l
•iors and die out, only to be revived
• ri the future as a mere excuse for .
trivial arguments" Or, on the other
hand, will the people really interested
m these measures lake enough trouble
to go through with the thing and ef-
fect some improvements which, to !
some extent at least, will unify the
tudent body and eliminate the dissi-
fence of its members"

CONTROL BOARD
NAMES MANAGER
FOR RICE CO-OP
"There is a psychological aspect," re-
cently said a book salesman, "to the
problem of student opinion concerning
co-operative stores in the universities.
Such institutions are accused of
profiteering, and unjustly so."
The Rice Institute has in no way
proved the exception to this statement.
Campus talk tends to underrate the
services which the co-op renders and
to overrate its income.
In the first place, it is not generally
known that the co-operative store is
not a concession. Quite to the con-
trary, it is run by a manager ap-
pointed by the Board of Control of the
Co-operative Store. Since this board
is comprised of three faculty members
including Dr. E. O. Lovett, S. G. Mc-
Cann, J. T. McCants, and two student
members, appointed by the Students'
council, what s commonly known as
"suction" might scarcely exist, The
manager is paid a salary, not a com-
mission, for his services.
The co-op can in no way be rele-
gated to the rank of a monopoly. It
is operated merely for convenience of
the students, not for profit. Prices for ;
books are set by the publishers. The
store is not at liberty to prey upon the ■
allegedly meager pocketbooks of stu- j
dents
The last suspicion of graft may be
removed from the university mind
when the students take cognizance of
the fact that a certified auditor, from
a well-known law firm, makes a tour
of inspection at regular intervals and
checks accounts of the co-op to the
vt rv last cent

STUDENT POLITICS
The majority of students at the Uni-
versity of Kentucky have no political
ambition. They are not seeking per-
sonal glory and they do not concern
themselves about methods used by
those who are. The average student,
when he troubles to support anyone,
supports a candidate for a campus
office for one or both of two reasons:
personal friendship or desire for re-
flected importance. How powerful
feels the student who can say "I elect-
ed him " What student would solicit
votes— or would even vote—for a can-
didate merely because he believes tha
candidate can most competently fill the
office?
Both in the university and the world
outside, politics is rather a disreputable j
institution It is a game without rules j
and can be played only by those who
are aware that one can employ any
tactics as long as one operates to one's !
own advantage Personal gain is the
foundation upon which politics, as it
oxis-ts today, has been built. Students
know the methods employed by their !
leaders, They are aware of the ille-
gitimate means used by office seekers
They see and sigh, "What of it!"
It often has been observed that many
of the most powerful politicians are
men who are personally detestable;
men who have no appreciation for
tiller points of conduct, and whose only
consideration is to gain personal prom-
inence and Wealth: and since the aver-
Hge man does not care enough to think
for himself, these men gain distinction
and power The Kernel believes that j
the student or the citizen who takes
no interest.' in the election of the man
who can bc.-t represent him has no
reason to protest when affairs are mis-
managed If all the persons who
blame Hoovei fot the current depres-
sion had voted for Al Smith ...
At the University of Kentucky an
effort lias lieed made to eliminate the
evil ill amateur vote angling. The
Student Board of Publications is a
practicable step in this direction. This
body elects men to till major positions
on The Kernel and Keiituckian. For-
med \ it was neccssar., for a Kernel
editor l.o be not only l.i good journalist
but hi extraordinarily good politician
as 'well Since he was eleeterl by mem-
be re of the tall lie had to count the
votes first and edit his paper second.
He endeavored to become editor, not
by .the excellence of his work but by
he- personal popularity. 01 ten it way
Kcee.v-ary for a candidate to promise
higher positions to unworthy members
of the reportorial staff as election firne
neaied. The Keiituckian editor hilli-
eito has been elected by members of
the junior class who seldom regarded
the candidate's ability as a major con-
sideration. Under regulation of the
board of publications, henceforth, this
at rangetncnl will be considerably
modified.
At present the tin met crude but el-
lective practices ol election engineers
have been almost entirely eliminated.
The board is composed of students and
faculty members who have little per-
sonal interest in the candidates. All
university elections can not Vie con- '
ducted in this way but the Kernel
believes that the domination of extra-
judgment go through life with a de-
cidedly narrow outlook. They never
attempt to see the other fellow's
views and in this regard may be con-
sidered failures. If everyone follow-
ed Mr MacDonald's advice and disa-
greed a little more, we would perhaps
not only realize some of our own mis-
takes, but also acquire a broader out-
look and a higher regard for hu- j
manity.

(BY LOIS PETERS)
Freshmen! Freshmen! Are you a business failure? Are you a
social flop? Are you getting discouraged this early in your college
career? Well, so are we, and that makes it mutual, but wait! See
what we have done about it! We have conscientiously interviewed
campus notables and gotten advice from about tlu«e-nineteenths of
them. The rest, who seem to know reporters at a glance, got away.
This is the result of our efforts:
Freshman Duchess in the Mfiy fete this spring will
be Sara Ella Street, of Houston.
Miss Street will be escorted by Richard D. Moers. She is a
graduate of San Jacinto high school. There she was chosen
the prettiest girl in school in 1931, and had a full page por-
trait in El Oroso, high school yearbook. She was a princess
in the San Jacinto May fete last year, and a duchess in 1930.
French Homework the Hung To Do
In Biology Class; or, Comb Your Hair
After exhaustive research and many interviews with professors,
the freshman committee for psychological investigation April 1 pre-
sented the following list of rules for conduct in the classrooms:
1. Immediately upon entering biol-
ogy class, start your French homework.
Your initiative will be appreciated.
2. If you haven't any French home-
work. start throwing paper wads or
snow balls at your classmates. It's a
great time to get a little extra spring
baseball training.
3. When the professor enters and
everybody else gives him a big hand,
ROGERS, MOSS ARE |
SPEAKERS TO ASME
At Moday's A S. M, E. meeting, two
papers on unusual subjects were pre-
sented
The first, "Piping for 1000-degree
Fahrenheit Steam", by Paul Rogers,
told advantages of using high temper-
ature steam, difficulties incurred by
its use, and composition of pipe, fit-
tings. and flanges used in high tem-
perature power plant installations.
Blackboard sketches of various types
of joints used in the piping were made.
F,;irl Moss presented the second,
"Dynamic Stresses in Metals", Moss
defined dynamic stresses and explain- ,
ed how each was caused and then told
of the effect nt poor machining or j
notching upon the fatigue limit of a
metal. The work of Wohlcrs and of
Baseomb upon dynamic stresses was
also discussed.
Tuesday, March 29, a group picture I
of members of the Rice student chap-
ter was taken.
eitrrieulttr activity by a small group
is rapidly drawing to a close and that
both at the University of Kentucky
and similar institutions ability is being
more and more considered.
Many campus offices require slight
ability and for that reason it matters
little if a stupid but popular candidate
is elected. To change an election for
a major office into a popularity con-
test, however, is quite a different mat-
ter.—The Kentucky Kernel.

don't forget to "boo" him. He'll be
glad to find that you haven't fallen
asleep yet.
4. Comb your hairi and put on fresh
make-up. It relieves your mind and
leaves you fresh for argument.
5. Talk to someone sitting near you.
It shows your social nature and good
fellowship.
6. Disagree with the established
rules. People will know you are a
person with an independent mind.
7. Make irrelevant remarks and ask
unimportant questions. Your class-
mates will be grateful to you.
8. Never be honest. You'll make
belter grades.
9. Don't study. It's entirely too much
work.
10. Cut as much as you like. You
know everything the prof could tell
you in that lecture.
11. At three minutes after the hour,
start hollering "walk". Your class-
mates Will always think it's a swell-
agent idea, and the prof will appreciate
the fine co-operation.
WHAT
OTHERS
. THINK
Reports have been prevalent that
Kitts was going to South Carolina to
eofich football and basketball, but few
had given any consideration to his
chances at, Rice. His choice is a pop-
ular one. and he is a coach with high
ideals, the sort of man to place basket-
ball on a high level in the Southwest
conference.
Kitts was a great athlete in his day,
and his coaching efforts have been
more successful than the efforts of any
high school coach In the country. If
he gets even fair material at Rice, his
success Is assured before he begins his
work.—Daily Texan.

You Rate if You Stay
Member of Same Class
More Than Two Years
(BY KATY BRESKY)
Following is a list of fifteen import-
ant words from the vocabularly of the
average student. Although they are
used frequently and fluently, many
have thus far been left undefined.
This list may be used as frequently
as desired to suit the individual's
needs, but remember, The Freshman
Thresher is non political; it takes no
sides!
ATHLETES: a group of boys who
"sacrifice all" for the sake of Rice by
■ using the privilege of treating roughly
; their rivals on the gridiron, court, and
cinder track, and by appearing In pub-
lic with muscles flexed, and an aloof
air for the appreciation and adoration
of feminine members of their schoq).
Athletes are great admirers of ath-*'
letes. Any young man who wears the
: same socks two weeks in succession,
has an eighteen inch neck, and de-
sires to rate, qualifies.
I E. B. L.'s OWLS, PALS: groups of
girls chosen because they rate, look
like they rate, or are close friends of!
someone who rates.
RALLY CLUB: the masculine!
equivalent to the girls' literary socle- j
, ties, which, however, has put its fin-
ger in the hole in the dike more than
once.
RATE: a mighty word which refers'
to boys who play football or girls who
are seen with them. It is also used in
reference to various personages who
have been members of the same class
for more than two years, or are offi-
cers of important organisations. There
are some others who rate; they are
distinguished by their ability to
scramble around Autry house and
make remarks at the tops of their
voices, attempt foursomes at bridge,
smoke, and mostly loaf, and get away
with it.
SAMMY: the wisest old Owl of
them all.
LINE: a fresh and varied vocabu-
lary, gathered from various sources,
and considered "the thing" by some.
Permissible on Saturday nights, as it
relieves the tired mind of all the fe-
rocious names Dr. Altenburg compels
struggling freshmen to remember.
SALLYPORT: the hangout where
Rice co-eds gather, campaign, elect,
peat and repeat, cuss and discuss va-
rious issues. Also the place to be
seen before, between, and after
classes, with the four guardsmen star-
ing down.
FLUNK: the polite and better way
of saying to pass out the back or side
doors. Anyway, to pass out.
CRAM: a college student's method
oi studying, the night (and morning)
before the day before the exam be-
fore one's brains realize they've never
been used before.
LAB: a place where one works for
three or more hours over slimy frogs,
very unknown unknowns, etc. This is
also a place used to learn new ditties
or tunes, to gossip a bit and exchange
the low-down on last night's date; a
place where the athlete goes with
grim determination to get some edu-
cation; and a place where the average
student just struggles.
HOT CHA: a hard one to define—
similar to last year's "it" but a great
deal different—more evident after
February exams and towards the be-
ginning of spring. For more informa-
tion, see any member of the Y. W. C.
A. She undoubtedly will not know.
SENIOR: a chest-expanded, over-
educated student who over-decorates
the campus and struts around as if
he owns everything in the layout from
the statue of William Marsh Rice
down to Dr. Altenburg's little pet
amebas.
JUNIOR: a perplexed student who
doesn't know whether he's coming or
going, but who > has slight prospects of
reaching his destination soon.
SOPHOMORE: an over-sophisticated
student, still dizzy from the fact that
he Is through with that flrnt. war.
FRESHMAN: the writer for obvious
reasons refuses to define this species.
"Keep the home fires burning", gra
ciously submitted by Nero Nerts, vice-
vice-secretary of the Sitters of the
Skillet.
"Remember that a stitch in time
saves nine, is guaranteed to save at
least seven, and averages about eight
and one-third", Ladies Aid.
An illustratious pole vaulter said, "1
owe my rise to Fleischman's yeast"—
(adv.)
Another athlete has decided to
"grow cherry trees and ehop them
down to prove to the world I'm an
honest man".
And then there was the dear sweet
child who murmured tearfully, "All
that I am, or ever hope to be, I owe
to my dear mother".
Advice from the Autry house, "Play
contract, or at least learn to count to
thirteen before you can succeed".
From our favorite gold digger, "The
more he spends on you, the less he
has to spend on anyone else".
"An' then there's pull", timidly adds
Cuthbert.
The last was pointedly directed to
reporters, mosquitoes, and kibitzers,
"Keep your nose out of other peo-
ple's business".—Oooh—yausah!
1935
THEATERS
MAJESTIC—"Young Bride", RKO
Pathe's romance of reckless youth
which presents a star of today and In-
troduces two potential stars of tomor-
row, is the current ,Majestic attraction.
Beautiful blonde Helen -Twelvetrees la
supported by Eric Linden and Arline
Judge, who won the favor of film au-
diences in "Are These Our Children"?
Linden plays the lead opposite Miss
Twelvetrees and Miss Judge portrays a
dance hall siren who does her un-
scrupulous best to wreck their happi-
ness. The theme of the story is the
regeneration of an errant, reckless
youth through marriage and prospec-
tive fatherhood.
KIRBY—In "Alias the Doctor", the
First National and Vitaphone picture at
the Kirby, Richard Barthelmess comes
with what may be ranked as his finest
portrayal. He plays a brilliant young
surgeon who undergoes shame and im-
prisonment to shield a worthless foster-
brother. While heavily dramatic, there
is a lighter vein in the stor, the happy-
go-lucky medical student days, which
is highly entertaining and acts as a
foil to set off the more tense moments
of the drama. Marian Marsh plays
the feminine lead.
METROPOLITAN—The ever-popular
movie team of Jeanette MacDonald and
Maurice Chevalier gain star at the
Met this week in Paramount'# "One
Hour With You". The usual round of
boudoir scenes, straw hats, and French
■ ditties are prominent. Leave the cyn-
ical and serious-minded theatergoer at
home, because this film is light, snappy
and quick - moving entertainment.
Ernest Lubitsch, who directed the
stars in "The Love Parade", directed
their latest screen presentation.
LOEW'S—"Are You Listening?"
adopted from J. P. McEvoy's nationally
read radio story of what goes on be-
hind the scenes of radio broadcasting,
with boisterous William Haines in the
role of the anouncer, heads the Loew's
State bill this week. The story has
equal proportions of comedy, romance,
and tragedy, involving the murder of
Haines' wife for which he is accused.
This involves newspapers, police and
politics in an exciting chase. M.-G.-
M.'s bevy of beautiful blondes promi-
nent in the picture include Madge
Evans, Karen Morley, Anita Page, and
Joan Marsh.

I could offer you all the (luxury, pov-

My love for you burns like a (candle,

you'll be mine, I'll be the (happiest,

If you say "no" I hereby resolve to

that you're very (chaste, broad-mind-
