SCHEDULES
(continued on page four)
By Bill Wood*
May 1 has come and gone; Lafayette students now realize that
they are heading down the home
stretch, with exams just three
weeks away.
It is about this time that students begin to map out a careful
course of study during those free
afternoons and the nights when
homework will not be so heavy.
"Let's see now. . . Tuesday night
I'll read a novel for English, then
on Thursday afternoon I'll read
a novel for Engli.sh then on Thursday afternoon I'll read about three
hundred pages of Economics. That
will give me a start." So thinks
the Lafayette student.
Tuesday night comes and some
of the boys are going downtown
to the movies. Well, Joe Student
might as well go with them; he
can read the novel when he gets
back. Thursday afternoon it is too
hot to read; Joe Student either
goes downtown "just to buy one
beer to cool off," or else he mixes
himself a Mint Julep.
JULEP
RECIPE
Thi.s-, incidentally, wouldn't be a
bad place to give an infallible recipe for the perfect Mint Julep.
It is surprising how many people
one meets who have never had the
great good fortune to partake of
the ambrosian qualitie.s of a good
Mint Julep.
However, to get back to the recipe;
crush a lot of ice very
fine, you'll use it all. Put about an
inch and a half of this
finely
crushed ice in the bottom of an
ordinary tumbler. Then dribble a
heaping teaspoonful of
powered
sugar, or more according to taste,
onto the ice. Take the leaves of
five healthy sprigs of mint, and
crush them well with the sugar and
ice.
When you have fini.shcd, you
have a green syrupy mass in the
bottom of the gla.sH. Don't let this
frighten you. Fill the glass with
more crushed ice, all the way up
to the top, then fill the glass with
blended rye whiskey. Stick a few
sprays of mint in the ice for decoration. Do not put in any orange
peels, lemon peels, or garbage, because this is the greatest possible
sacrilige against a Mint Julep.
This is the recipe for a Maryland Mint Julep. In a Kentucky
Mint Julep, you leave the mint in
the bottom of the glass uncrushed,

Favor of Petition
After an hour and fifteen minutes of heated debate in a special
meeting, Student Council yesterday afternoon approved the petition for a branch of the American
Student Union by a 5-4 vote and
drew up a recommendation to be
sent to the faculty committee.
The memorandam sent to the
faculty committee
recommended
that permission be granted to the

of the A. S. U. on the Lafayette

Law Meeting
S'. S. Riddle of the state board
of Commerce at Harrisburg, delivered an address to the Kirby
Law Society Thursday night in the
council room of Kirby Hall.
His talk dealt with the effect of

on taxes. The speaker told the assemblage that higher taxes would
be the result. It was notable that
Riddle's speech was informative,
and he refused to commit himself
on any point.
Another portion of tho talk was
devoted to the labor boards. Herein the government usurps the power of the unions minimum wage

that the unions have done.

The speaker then commented on

It was .Saturday night and the

Whether being Saturday night
had anything to do with the gnats
being out one couldn't say. But the
reason for the Phi Gams being out
was certainly due to its being Saturday night. You si-e, the K. D.
It's were having a formal dance
and the Phi Gam boys decided to
find out what kind of women the
K. D. R's were bringing.
Between the Phi Gam house and

the
ground. They are to prevent cars

Out of the still of the fine spring
evening a loud grinding was heard.
One could sec at a glance that a
car had become entangled with
one of the pipes and with a glance
a person dressed in formal clothes
was sighted, none other than Dean
- -
At first he appeared quite perturbed upon seeing the predicament he was in. But far be it for
the dean to lose his cheery countenance for more than a second.
Out came the cheery smile and
precisely at the .-same instant a cry
was heard in the vicinity of the
Phi Gam house, "All out brothers,
the dean is in trouble." With a
scurry and a rush the brave lads
came dashing from their abode.
"What do you .say fellows, car
I have a little help?" came from
Dean Distler.
Fine up-standing youth showed
the old fight with a heave-and-aho, and the rear end of the car
was lifted from the ground and
placed in a more suitable spot.
The dean said thanks and drove
on. The Phi Gams went back lO

From the K. D. R. house came the
plaintive notes of the Faculty play

The $100 prize is offered on the
.student's qualities of character, intelligence, leadership,
originality
and service to the college.

While this year's winner is outstanding for athletics, previous
winners have not been so occupied.
There have been only four varsity

only one football captain; there
have been four varsity baseball
players, of whom two were captains. Five varsity basketball players with just one captain, and only
a member of the varsity swimming
squad have been listed before.
Membership in K. R. T., Student council, and the Brainerd cabinet have in the past been almost

Twelve prize men have been members of K. R. T., and three of them
were presidents of the organization. Eleven men have been m«mbers of Student council, with two

DICTATORSHIP
Some large number.s of the inhabitants of the
United States have been worried for a long time about
how long it would be before Prc-iident Roosevelt took
advantage of his unusual situation to set up a dictatorship.
The first step in that progression has been started, though not by Roosevelt. It is not even certain
that Roosevelt backs the step. But the step has been
started.
Senator Minton is proposing a bill which would
enable the President completely to muffle the presses.
Through hi.s bill, any unfavorable press can be terrorized. Minton claims that the law will only suppress
the publication of lies. But he extends this ruling to
include the editorial pages, as well as the news pages.
Tliere is very little excuse for a move like this. It is
completely irreconcilable with the basic theories of
this country.
It is not completely irreconcilable with the basic
theories of Hitlerian Germany, though. The danger
of having even the thinking of their nation directed
—or miiidirected—is one which Americans seldom
consider. It is generally felt that the fight of the free
press has been won and needs not be fought again.
Such retrogression as Minton's bill proposes is a tragic
sign. It is a sign that the administration fears honest
criticism. Fear like this means lack of faith in the
structure as a whole. It also means that the administration is v.illing to blind itself to any of its flaws. The
po.ssibility that some of the criticism which he plans to
squelch may be constructive has not, apparently,
dawned on Minton.
Mechanically, the bill has its manifest flaws.
It is obvious that the job would probably be a
bureaucracy. The best that could be hoped is that a
strongly-prejudiced man be put in charge. To do that
would be the .same as having every newspaper a New
Ooal paper. To have that could be the same as hav
. ing,Hitler for president.

A C T I V I T I E S BOARD
Leaders of the current move to establish a campus planning board may well study the planning
board recently inaugurated in Easton.
The function of the campus planning board, as
outlined by its proponents, is to "keep important
events happening in the collage community from beiAg scheduled for nights on which other important activities are to take place". A planning board would
attempt to eradicate the evil of conflicting dates,
thus allowing a maximum number of students to attend each event in which they arc interested.
,.
The need for such a board is quite evident. This
week the Perry-Vines exhibition matches and the
French and German reading tests both occur on the
same niglit. Last Friday the Spring Revue, the Junior
Browse, and the first round of the Step Singing cont««t were all held within a few minutes of each other.
Selection of the date for the Spring Tnterfraternity
ball waa delayed because of a conflict with a choir
concert. I^vem now a glee club radio broadc8«t is set
for Sunday of the ball week-end. A planning board
might bring order out of this chaos.
