Outstanding AuthorityOn Employment Will
Speak Here
"How to Get a Job" will be the subject
of a series of talks by William L. Fletch-
er, of Boston, nationally known authority
on employment and personnel problems,
who in cooperation with the guidance pro-
gram of the Placement Bureau, will ad-
dress the faculty and seniors of the Uni-
versity of Maine on March 5 and 6 at
4:15 in the Little Theatre.
Mr. Fletcher. an alumnus of the Uni-
versity in the class of 1913, is recognized
as one of the country's leaders in the
employment field. To the answering of
such questions as confront men and women
of the senior class this spring who are
seeking a position in the business world,
Mr. Fletcher has devoted his life's work.
He has generously offered his services for
these two days and will present a series
of talks designed to assist seniors in their
first great adjustment after graduation.
As the president of William L. Fletcher,
Inc., one of the most outstanding corpora-
tions in the country engaged in vocational
guidance and employment counselling.
Mr. Fletcher has assisted thousands of
men and women with their employment
problems. He has also had wide experi-
ence in building personnel for large cor-
porations. and has been retained in this
capacity by many large companies. He
has proven his ability to select men with
the qualities needed for leadership. He is
the author of numerous articles and also
one of the best books ever written on
how to get a job. His message to the
seniors will be founded on wide knowl-
edge. practical experience. and a thorough
appreciation of the point of view of both
the employer and the graduate.
Mr. Fletcher's generous cooperation has
enabled the Placement Itureau to under-
take for the first time in the history of
Maine a University-wide program of
authentic, practical counselling for sen-
iors. The purpose of this program will be
to inform seniors how best to present
themselves to an employer so that their
actual abilities may be recognized. and
how to study his experiences and interests
so that he may more intelligently select
the line of work for which he is fitted.
Such a program, successfully carried out,
will, it is hoped, be of great value both to
the graduates and to their future em-
ployers.

Every fraternity, except two, and manyof the dormitories, entered the snowsculpturing contest, one of the featuresof the Carnival. Phi Gamma Delta, witha most remarkably executed tableau ofa set of three figures on a raised dais, wasadjudged as the winner. A purple back-ground sprinkled with stars was flankedon one side by a woman figure skater;in the other, by a (lancing couple. A giantstar with the beautiful figure of a girl infront of it was placed in the center. Theentire scene was excellently sculptured,showing a great deal of work, thought,and skill on the part of the sculpturers.The artists responsible for this fine piece,,f artistry, were: Gorden Heath, JamesDow, Robert Baker. and George Grange,although the entire fraternity did its part.

Several experts in modern education
from other institutions have been secured
for the term and several institutes have
been decided upon which will appeal to
teachers especially. Work on the summer
session catalog is being rushed and this
important piece of literature for the ses-
sion will be ready for distribution to in-
terested persons sometime the first of
March, according to the director.
In announcing the summer term, Dr.

Wild Life ResearchStation Is Started
Thrimgh art angements made by theU. S. Biological Survey with the Ameri-can Wild Life Institute, it has been pos-sible for nine laml-grant colleges in theUnited States to establish Wild Life Re-search Stations. These nine stations areorganized for the purixise of conductingresearch in the various phases of WildLife Cimservation, with general emphasison game birds and animals and their ha-bits, conservation and management.
Through a cooperative agreement withthe ISepartment of Inland Fisheries andGame at Augusta and the two organiza-t it ins above mentioned the LTniversity ofMaine was fortunate enough to secureone of these regional stations.
Although the major objective of tlielocal station is that of research, otherphases of the work are also being empha-sized. These other phases include theestablishment of a four-year undergradu-ate curriculum in Wild I.ife Conservation,tqmn completion of which students willreceive the Bachelor of Science degree.StudSmts who have had the necessary un-dergraduate foundation may also registerfor graduate work at the University ascandidates for a Master's Degree in thisfield. Through the cooperative agreementwith the State and Federal agencies abovementioned funds are available for theemployment of four graduate assistantswho will be candidates for their Master'sDegree and will assist in teaching and re-search on the Campus.
The undergraduate and graduate cur-ricula are headed up in the Forestry De-partment in the College of Agricultureand the Head of the Forestry Departmentis also Chairman of a committee to admin-ister the cooperative funds and the re-search program.
The undergraduate and graduate cur-ricula train men for positions with theFederal government where positions arefrequently available in the Biological Sur-vey, U, S. Forest Service, Soil Conserva-tion Service, Indian Service and NationalPark Service. Other organizations em-ploying men with this bask training areFish and Game Departments and ownersof large estates and hunting preienrell.

CongratulationsCongratulations are in order too the many students, administrative officials, and
faculty members who. particularly the past week, gave willingly of their time and
effort to make the Second Winter Carnival the tremendous success it was.
It is not easy. these cold and snowy February days, to spare time from the many
duties that call one so imperatively ; neither is it easy to labor for long hours in the
cold that numbs fingers and toes and nips nose and ears. Vet many students took
hours to work On the statues --even well into the night when their greatest desire was
to be stretched out under thick warni blankets. Other students worked many hours
decorating and preparing for the Intramural Ball and gave much of their time in
order that other students might enjoy themselves without anything to mar their
pleasure.Faculty members and administrative officials cooperated whole-heartedly with
the students in preparing an interesting and worthwhile program for the Carnival.
They gave willingly of advice and labor when other things beckoned more desirably.So. If goes without saying. CONGRATULATIONS!
Cynicism and Self-RespectMen who has t. laboored for the advancement of mankind to a higher, more noble
plane have otten suffered for their attempts. Some were merely ridiculed but manyothers were persecuted. hounded by the ignorant and superstitious, while several evengave their all—their life—and for the betterment of their fellowmen!
Christ founded a religion based on greater love for one's neighbor, greater peaceand happiness for all. Ile was crucified on a cypress cross. Servetus dared the wrathof the Church and Public Opinion hi study the circulation of the blood in an attemptto advance medical scieme. Ile was burned at the stake. Socrates tried to awakethe people to the life arounil them—to lift their existence to a higher level. He wasmade to drink the hemlock.
It would seem that their efforts were unappreciated by those whom they weretrying to benefit. But today they are tespected and revered. They are honored fortheir courage and willingness to suffer hardships for their ideals. Some persons mightsay that they would rather have money in their pocket now than a wreath on theirgrave after they have died, and they might point, as examples, to the lives of someof our well-known statesmen and financiers who have sold their Weals for 40 piecesof silver. But the former, in so saying, have forgotten something.
What was it that made Christ. Servetus. and Socrates cling to their ideals? Wasit hope of future rewards, of future glory? No. It was something far more noblethan that. These great men were willing to sacrifice fame, riches, happiness, and theirlife, if necessary. for their seli-respect. They realized that they was nothing morehonorable. nothing more worthwhile than to retain your self-respect ; that withoutself-respect their lives were useless things. All they could get out of the worldwould have been disappointment had they lost their self-respect. Did Judas kill him-self because he was fearful of losing his life for his betrayal of Jesus? No. He rea-lized that his life was no huger of value to him when he had lost respect in himself.and self respect he had surely lost.and self-respect he had surely lost.
Then prize self-respect above everything else. When. pethaps. you see an easyway out of your difficulties or. perhaps, a chance for advancement. with a little sacrificefortunes sink. no matter how discouraging your prospects become. don't give in. don'tsacrifice your ideals or sour self-respect. If you do. sit:ante and remorse will turninto bitterness any ,UCCess you attain. 1.iving will become a burden, a hateful. weari-Mime thing.
Clelland AddressedA.S.U. on MilitarismDr, Frank W Clelland, professor at
the Bangor Theological Seminary. ad- I
dressed the Mame A S.C. ( formerlySLID) in the M.C.A. last Thursday eve-ning on the subject. "What Is MilitarismDoing to Education in this Country?"
"The military power in education to-day." he said. "Is threatening academicfreedom, robbing our schools of sadlyneeded tax money, and creating a threat-ening cloud if pressure-politics expressingitself through teachers' oath legislation,gag bills. disaffection bills and a host ofother dangerous anti nauseating fascistlegislation which means the death of ourboasted American democracy."He said that "the introduction of War
Department control into local educationaladministration divides authority and re-sults, in the majority of instances, in thecivilian interests being cowed by the arro-gance of the military viewpoint and phil-osophy of education. Freedom of teach-ing is always endangered by the pres-ence of she military on the campus."There are three "educational" values
the adsocates of R.0 T.C. claim for mil-
i itary training. he said -that it is a work-able substitute for physical education. thatit is a reliable character education tech-nique. and that it is good citizenship train-ng. Quoting the educational leader. Prof.H. A. Overstreet, Dr. Clelland said thatrather than good citizenship training mil-itary creates "first, a skepticism as to anysave a warlike means of settling interna-tional disputes. and second. an ill-con-cealed admiration for the warlike virtues."
.As for character training. Dr. Clellandstated that the military claim had beencompletely exploded. Again quoting, hesaid. "Not only are the conditions of trans-fer not present, but what is to be trans-ferred. viz., implicit obedience --a kindof Dumb Dora attitude—is not applicableto civilian life." And finally, the last re-sort of the militarist claiming educationalvalues—that drill has value as physicaltraining—was termed likewise fallaciousby Dr. Clelland. "Instead of the rigid.formal exercise in artificial formation pro-vided in military training, modern physi-cal education emphasizes free play andother activities which develop recreationalhabits and skills which will be useful laterin life." Also, he said, those physicallydefective who need individual care are notprovided for as a result of this drill.

To the Editor of the COMIpld ,Dear Sir :
Is the Supreme Court the awful impedi-ment to our progress that was pointed out
last week in the Campus! In view ofdevelopments which are going on now in
the United States I would be inclined to
think that it isn't.
Fascism is spreading in this country
whether we wish to recognize it as such
or not. The action that was taken inBangor last year against Booker is a goodexample of how our beloved "patriots"
work. They pinned the "Red Label" on
him and he was indicted by directed opin-
ion of the American Legion and other
groups that think they are real loyalists
but in reality they are choking the very
life out of our individual liberties for
which we fought in the American Revolu-
tion. Freedom of Speech is becoming
passe. We must have teachers who take
oaths so that they will not utter a word
which doesn't coincide with the ideas of
our fascists.
Now is the time to preserve the Su-
preme Court because they are the only
ones who are going to be able to put their
foot down and say to these groups that
are robbing us of our last liberties of free
speech and expression. There are bills
up before Congress which would make it
unlawful and punishable by imprisonment
in the federal penitentiary to speak to any-
one in uniform of the army against mili-
tarism. This means that anyone speakingover the radio or writing in any publica-
tion could not say anything against mili-tarism without being liable to a term inprison.
The American Chamber of Commercehas written propaganda which they havedistributed to army and navy officials tocombat the so-called "red menace" whichthey seem to think is spreading in Amer-ica. They have taken the facts and thendistorted them so that they don't meanwhat is really said in them but whichseems to point to something that they calla menace. They don't meet argumentswhich are put to them by arguments butinsidiously pin the "Red Label" on any-one who criticises with intent to improvethe evils that exist in our present society.

Dr. E. C. Nelson MakingZoological Investigation
By Tom LynchAn investigation of the protozoa para-
sites of man is being made by Dr. E. Clif-ford Nelson of the Zoological departmentof the University of Maine.
Man is the host to 25 species of theseparasites, eleven of which are more orless consistently harmful. The rest simp-ly live in the host and cause him no notice-able trouble. These protozoa, of whichthe common Amoeba is a familiar exam-ple. are to he found in the intestines.blood. and even the tissues of man andother animals. African sleeping sickness,southern cattle fever. coccidiosis in chick-ens, and several other diseases are directlytraceable to this parasite. An outbreakof dysentery which originated in Chicagotwo years ago and killed forty people, andmany isolated cases which are being con-tinually reported are caused by a typecalled Endamtieba histolytica.
Dr. Nelson has interested himself in aparticular type called Balantidium cob,which causes a fatal dysentery in man,and for which no effective remedy hasthus far been devised. It is a compara-tively rare disease in this country, andcan be traced in almost every case to theswallowing of food or water which hasbeen infected by the pig. In other words,the pig is the normal host to the protozoa,but appears to he entirely unaffected byit.
.\t the present time, Dr. Nelson hasI succeeded in keeping the organism alivefor over a year in the rat, and is engagedin making a detailed study of its life his-tory. The question of most concern isthe study of the resistance, either naturalor developed. which the host puts upagainst the parasite and the disease causedby it. If this question call be answeredsatisfactorily, the work will develop tcure for the disease, and will lead to im-portant research in allied fields.For a more detailed account of Dr.:

In The LibraryCastaways of PlentyJr:\ F Hawkins
Reviewed by Tom LynchThe other day our English instructor
handed us a thin little volume by Willard
E. Hawkins, entitled Castaways of Plen-
ty. "Here," he said, "is a book that con-
tains as clear an exposition of the present
economic dilemma as can be found in anyother book ten times its length." He wasright; after wading our somewhat foggyway through more books than we like tocontemplate off-hand, and getting less persquare inch from them than we ought toadmit, it is an unbelievable treat to findsuch admirable lucidity and succinctnessin a usually dry-as-dust subject.
The story is the tale of three men who
are cast away on an uninhabited island.
They decide to conduct their life on the
island in accordance with capitalistic eco-
nomics. and forthwith get themselves
tangled up in unemployment, overproduc-
tion, debt, and in short, the whole list of
our present-day economic troubles. Fi-
nally they get themselves so enmeshed in
debt to each other that there is danger of
their starving because it would be "un-profitable to work." They solve the prob-
lem, however, by declaring a debt mora-torium, and later. by giving up the system.The author, Mr. Hawkins, whose varied ,
career of writer, editor, publisher, andteacher of journalism, furnishes amplematerial for his book, explains it as fol-lows: "Throughout my early life." hewrites, "I had entertained certain misgiv-ings regarding our economic system .To settle tny own mind, and get my
'thoughts in order. I began writing reamsof analysis concerning every phase of thelaccumulation of capital.
"One of the economic 'problems' I setmyself was that of placing three men onan island, letting each of them representcertain preponderant elements in our com-plex civilization, and then discovering howcapitalism on a miniature scale wouldwork out for them. This proved a fasci-nating task. It soon gripped me complete-ly, stretching on page after page. Andas I followed it through, the three menbecame to me real living beings, their
: plight as vivid as my own day-by-daystruggles. I simply had to learn the an-swer."And, although it sohuld not be thought
that we recommend Castaways of Plentyas a complete, or even correct "answer,"we do heartily recommend the book forwhat it is: an amusing, witty analysis ofa definite problem presented in a highlyreadable form.

luckiesare less acid
Over o period of yecirs, certain basic advances hove been made in the
selection and treatmentof cigarette tobaccosfor Lucky Strike Cigarettes.
They include preliminary analyses of the tobaccos selected; use of
center leaves; the higher heat treatment of tobacco ("toasting"); con-
sideration of acid-alkaline balance, with consequent definite improve-
ment in flavor; and controlled uniformity in the finished product.
All these combine to produce a superior cigarette—a modern cig-
arette, a cigarette made of rich, ripe-bodied tobaccos—A Light Smoke.

OVER THE HEAT WAVESWITH THE SONG HITS
By Don Kelley
The song "The Music Goes Round and
Round has just about had its run in the
eyes er the American public but "themelody lingers on." Red Hodgson,
Chicago bandsman is suing Mike Reills
and Ed. Farley, the alleged authors ofthe sung. Hodgson claims that he wrote
the words and lyrics for the song andthat a girl vocalist brought the song to
Ncw York and introduced It at the OnsxClub, where Reilly and Farles

tean: competed against a freshman
outtit rth any other college.
Team strength of the two varsity squads
can hardly be computed at this time. Col-
by is known to lack balance as a team, but
nevertheless has the advantage of com-
petition with two other college teams al-
this winter. Both Bowdoin and
Fates have engaged the Mule in dual
meets and won handily but at the sametime A'01by has demonstrated superior
strength in several events. Maine on the
ather hand is untried as yet but has, po-tentially, a fairly well balanced team.
Colby is greatly weakened by the loss of
Cliff Veysey, crack distance flyer. Vey-
sev has not yet fully recovered from a leginjury sustained in cross country. With
an Olnipic berth in view, he wishes to
t4ke no chance on aggravating the injury.
Social events shape up as real thrill-
ers. While hardly classed as a grudge
race, the meeting of Hunnewell and De-Veber in the mile should be a dandy. These
men are of about the same caliber, bothbeng converted cross country men. Hun-newell tan the two mile last year, lettingErnie Black take care of the shorter dis-tance. Now with Black gone, Coach Jen-kins i hoping that Bill will fill the va-cancy.

one point as Huntoon, Parsons, Eliott,and Hardison easily defeated the NewHampshire four. Alternating with skis
and snowshoes, the Maine team finishedjust when the Wildcat aggregation hadstarted on its final lap.A very tricky course featured the down-
hill race. Elliott, Bower, and J. Jones, a
N. H. man, tied for first place with 37fi
seconds. If either of the Maine men had
won this event, it would have meant the
meet for Maine. As it was, Nlaine led
now by lyj points.This was increased to 2,I 3 with Elliot
winning the jump. The Montreal redhead
got off the longest leap of the day, and
displayed good form. Hawieli (N.H),

By Bill SaltzmanBy.only the slim margin of 2t points
was the University of Maine WinterSnn Pw Team defeated Saturday at Dur-ham. N. H. by a powerful New Hamp-shire outfit that scored 421,3 points to 39Y3of Maine. It was almost identical to thatof last sear when the Granite State insti-tution eked out a victory by only twopoints.
It was the slalom race, an event thatMaine usually excels in, that reallycaused the Maine defeat. Not a pointwas scored by Ted Curtis's team in thisevent while New Hampshire collected 9.The absence of Frankie Doe, a fast man,probably accounted for Maine's poorshowing in this race. Too, a chain ofmisfortunes attached itself to Bower andElliott, the two Maine entries. Bower,the captain of the team, made the fastesttime of the meet in the second run, butmissed the last flag in his first heat, there-by causing his average to decrease. Simi-larly, Elliott, who garnered third fastesttime in the second run, fell on a turn inthe first race.
The race was close throughout. Goinginto the Combined Race, the last event ofthe program, the Pale Blue had a lead of21/3 points. The strength of the NewHampshire team in this race was enoughto win the tneet. Iii fact, the New Hamp-shire team thought at first that Mainehad WOII the duel.
The Snowshoe Cross Country race,first on the program, saw Morton, whostarred on the track cross country teamthis fall, win the first race he had everentered in snow competition. Runninga beautiful two miles, the Maine entrantfinished in the remarkable time of 12:183i.Quinn, the famous 880 star of the Wild-cats, was second, while Art Smith, stockysoph of Maine, came in third. The latterdid an especially good job, and, exceptfor a loose strap, might have finished insecond place. Charley Huntoon, Rum-ford second year man, slid in fourth place.
At this stage Maine was three points upon New Hampshire.Chase, the outstanding New Hampshire
star, beat out Bower by only 1:8 secondsin the cross country ski jaunt, run againsttime. Ken Johnstone, of Maine, was thirdand R. Jones, of N. H., fourth. NewHampshire now led by two points.A clean sweep of the slalom race by
New Hampshire put them thirteen pointsin the fore. Although Chase, Damon,‘Vhitcher, and Long shut out the Maineentries, much credit must go to Jim Hag-gett, who, running his first race, placedfifth. The course was extremely tricky

Frosh HoopmenAre Successful in
Aroostook TripThe University of Maine crack Frosh
A basketball squad concluded a most suc-cessful season with a trek to Aroostooklast week, winning four out of five gatnesagainst the leading schools of that region.Those making the trip were: Harry Tour-tillotte, Old Town; Louie Harris, Milo;Dana Drew, Patten; and Bill Cullinan,South Portland. forwards; Elwood Mil-lett. Norway; and Ken Clarke, Ft. Fair-field. centers; John Perry. Old Town;Bill Craig, Bingham; Ben Ela, South An-son; and John Foster, Northeast Harbor,guards.
Stopping off at Millinocket Mondayevening, February 17, the yearlings de-feated a fast Stearns High outfit. 27-26,in a nip and tuck battle that saw Cullinansink a foul goal in the closing seconds ofthe game to win the melee. The Frosh hada four point lead with three minutes toplay, but lost it when Sterns suddenlyawoke to tie up the game. Dumas. ofStearns, was awarded two free throwswith a minute to go, and missed both.Just as the whistle was about to blow.Cullinan was fouled. Calmly. the Maineforward looped in the throw to win thecontest for the Frosh.
It was a very fast game, and was wit-nessed by nearly a record-breaking crowd.Cullinan, Ela, and Craig starred for theFrosh, while Pound, a brilliant guard,and Dumas looked good for Stearns.Tuesday evening saw the Frosh run
wild the second half, after a close gamethe first two stanzas, to smother a RickerClassical Institute five, 34-22. The thir-ty-niners started to click in the third peri-od with the advent of the second team inthe contest. Cullinan and Tourtilotte ledthe attack that saw the Maine team runwild through its Aroostook rivals. In thefourth period, Bill Kenyon again sent inhis first stringers who kept up the goodwork. Four Ricker men were obliged toleave the contest via the foul route, givinga slight idea of how rough the game was.In the final minutes of the duel, Quig-
ley, right guard on Ricker, heaved in threesuccessive goals,- all nearly the entirelength of the floor.
Disaster hit the yearlings when theyfaced a powerful Presque Isle High Schoolteam, Aroostook champs, Wednesday eve-ning. Led by a giant center, Clarke, whoalone collected twenty points, and Brew-er, a tall guard, the Presque Isle boysroared to a fairly easy victory over theFrosh, 40-19. The Freshmen were handi-capped by the low ceiling of the PresqueIsle ,om and the height of their oppo-nents. They could not arch their shots,and most of their attempts were inter-cepted by the long arms of the Presque'Islers.
The Presque Isle team led 12-0 at theend of the first quarter, and easily re-tained its lead throughout the contest.Over 600 fans, packing the gym to therafters, viewed the game.
The Frosh jumped back into the victorycolumn the next evening, defeating A.C.I.
of Mars Hill 36-16. Since the AroostookTournament was to be played the follow-
ing night the A.C.I. regulars saw only a
little service. The Frosh, with Clark
showing the way, had things nearly their ,
own way.
The trip had a rousing finish with the
Frosh running away with Patten Acad-
emy of Patten, Friday evening, 44-23. A
large crowd gathered to witness Bill Ken-
yon's Frosh aggregation, and to also see
a native son, Dana Drew, in action.The contest was very fast, at least on
the yearling side of it. At one time, Man-
ager Brown, of Maine, missed recording
a basket. so fast were they made.
The entire squad saw action in everscontest. The Aroostook fans were verhospitable, and gave the boys a good timeIt was in the nature of a farewell trip iorBill Kenyon who coached varsity basket-ball last year, and the yearlings surelypresented Bill with a fine present in thenAroostook showing.The team returned Saturday afternoon
by train.
