SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST · " Do you kno"' ," the modern optimist insists on obsen·ing, " that

the ' rah-rah boy' is dis11ppearing from the modern univcrsity 1" The average .\me1· ican who has gh·ei1 but li tt le t im e to this important : ubject is quite apt to be unenlightened and say so. '\\Thereupon the opt imi ·t produces a mass of statistics or near-statistics that run like th is:

" ,\ t Yal e students have fo rmed a society for t ea and 'belle lett­res.' Litc• rature and art, as well as othcP top ics are treated in a manner \\'Orthy of one of the French ' Sofons des philosophcs '. " .

Compulsory attendance to classes fo r upper classmen who have attained an aYera"e of 80 has been discarded at the New York Uni­versity. This action \\'as taken after Smith, Cornell , and other col­le es had adopted similar courses.

"llarrnrd has initiated a practice of enabling the · student to att d any lecture or class for the purpose of broadening his outlook and extending his kno\\'l edge beyond his chosen field. "

On the -facc·of it, the evidence seems quite convincing. One would al most be led to believe that t he campus lad of the movies -th e lad immune to professors, stud ies, and "flunks ", the lad whose whole interest in li fe seems to be centi,·ed abou t wine, women, and football . .. is nearly "One. It would seem that "social lions" no longer a,·e in existance, or at least they no longer take a· clandestine peep at their books just before exams, but rather take that clan­destine peep j ust before the exam AFTER .A WHOLE NIGHT OJ<' HARD APPLICATION!

So it seems ... the story becomes more convincing all the time -·and now the final , killing blow. Do yon know that in the East the epidemic of spats, derbies, and ext!reme taste in haberdashery is on the wane ? Do you kno\\' that the Harvard, Yale, Princeton, or Cor­nell student no longer looks like a well-to-do bootlegged Did you know these things ? No. '\Ve il , "your education has been sadly neg-lected." ·

" '\Veil , now," the poor uninformed will say, "This may be all well and good, and true - I have no intention of doubting your word - but still it doesn't seem just right. If you wer e to go to Madison, you would certainly find nine out of ten students with the knots in their neckwear as big around as good sized doughnuts. If you were to go to Minneapolis you would certainly find the most prominent' personages on the campus wearing suits that seem at least two sizes too Jar c - and which are so loud that they dare not bring them home vhen they haYe a few days off and hasten back to the wilder-11 ess.

So here \\'C haYe the whole story. If the "rah-rah boy " is gone, another species of very similar· appearance and actions has sup.er-,1 ceded him. H there are no longer "rah-rah boys " in considerable numbers, there are still other creatures to take their places in the large automobiles t ha t stop before dormitory steps, in evening pa­jama parades, in derbies and green t ies, in prolonged drink ing bouts, in com posing clever or silly jokes, rhymes, songs, and cheers.

'l'herc are and, ladies ~ nd gentlemen, there most l ikely always will be.

ANYONE ELSE It seems to me that it would indeed be a shame if the great Inter­

State Oratorical and Extemporaneous contest combined with the pre­liminaries to the all Wisconsin High School Music F est ival did not call for some little discussion .

After seeing how poorly the students r esponded to the call for good attendance at the contests I was certainly grieviously disillus­ioned. After hearing the worthy gentlemen of the music contest in­sisting on teasing the audience I was angry. After hearing the r e­markabl~ and wholly unprecidented decision arrived at by the judges
