pupils on the other hand, the
schools in which such teaching
should be done, qualifications of
the critic teacher, relationship

Sidewalks Or Boats Needed On South Campus
Many members of the faculty live South of the campus, along
with a large number of students. Their usual route to and from
home takes them down a path that mother nature provided mil-
lions of years ago. Too. roots cross it. And it rains�well, that
is another story. There are several deep valleys in the path that
an1 filled with each downpour. If one evades the puddle of water
by stepping on leaves, his sucks are drenched and shoes become
muddy. Getting the feet wet causes colds, and these cause stu-
dents to become ill and miss school. Sometimes professors who
have blazed this beaten path enter the classroom with mud on their
shoes. This doesn't look nice. At least, it doesn't set a good
example for the s t u d e n t s who will be in the classrooms of to-
morrow. Much paving has been done on the campus in recent
years, but the South campus apparently has been overlooked.
Surely this condition has been mentioned by faculty members who

Still, nothing has been done about it. No one has to accent our
word about the need of this pavin.tr project. The next time it.
rains he can traverse the path himself. If this is done by the
proper persons, the paving will get under way as soon as the rain

A Week That Merits Support Of All Students
The German Fuehrer, speaking on the eighth anniversary of
his assumption of power, told his Nazis that Germany had many
things making it "a thousand times as strong as the strength it
has already displayed" and that "whoever wants to help England
will have to realize that whatever ship is going to come within
range of our torpedoes will be torpedoed He also declared that
although the British were now hoping for aid from the United
States, that "when we were forced into this war we had plans even
then for this emergency
Hitler's threat to torpedo all ships carrying United States
supnlies to Great Britain was interpreted in congressional circles
in Washington as an attempt to frighten Comrress into curbing
President Roosevelt's powers under the pending lend-lease bill.
Leading senators were quick in their statements that the threats
will not affect the legislation one particle, and the House foreign
affairs committee answered Hitler in approving the bill, with
minor changes.
In Rritain the speech of the Fuehrer was described as lend-
ing greater weight to prevailing Britisl opinion that Germany
I will launch a huge offensive this spring in an effort to deliver the
knockout before American aid can become effective. Moving
I speedily to meet this newest threat. Britain laid plans for an army
! of 8.000.000 men to be made possible by the substitution of women
; for men in industrial plants. This mobilization speed-up indicates
: that the government is confident that sufficient supplies will be
available from the United States and that British factories will
meet all needs.
Britain's army of the Nile has reached another milestone, in
its campaign to drive Premier Mussolini's forces out of North
Africa. Derna. the third major Italian bastion to fall in Libya,
has be, n occupied after the bitterest resistance offered by the
Fascists in the whole campaign. The conquered position is being
consolidated while the mechanized units move in towards Ben-
gasi, the apparent next objective.
On far-away fronts in East Africa, the British report that
their forces in Italian Eritrea were concentrating behind some
4,000 Italians who have retreated in Agordat-Barentu sector and
are believed preparing to make a stand. Operations in Italian
Somaliland are progressing in all sectors.
The "Free French" commander, Gen. Charles De Gaulle,
called last week upon the unbeaten French armies under General
Maximo Weygand in North and West Africa to throw off their
"shameful" inertia and help complete the conquest of Italian
1 .ibya. His urge was answered by Weygand who called on France's
powerful colonial empire in Africa to hold firm behind Marshal
Petain and await the Marshal's orders.
Greek warrior's, on the offensive again after beating off a
week of fierce Italian counter-attacks have occupied the key Al-
banian town of Tepeleni and are forcing an Italian retreat toward
alona, the next major goal of the Greek counter invasion. Im-
portant gains have been made in the sector north of Klesura and
in the coastal sector, where counter-attacks have been crushed
with heavy Italian losses.
Hostilities in the undeclared warfare between Thailand
(Siam) and French Indo-China ceased at 6 p. m. on January 31
when French and Thai delegates signed an armistice drafted by
fapan.se mediators. A peace treaty will be negotiated at Tokyo
with Japan as mediator.
On the home front President Roosevelt has issued a grave .
warning that the government will take over any den'fense plant
if the owner's refusal to meet government requirements threatens ;
to delay the rearmament drive. At the same time he said that
attorneys are studying the laws governing private patents to see
what power the government might exercise over them during
wartime.
Educators are arrayed in two
camps�those who believe that
education should go farther in
training youth for the particu-
lar duties they, are to assume
in the world, and those who con-
tend that vocational education
is already overdone to the neg-
lect of more fundamental train-
ing. Popular classification la-
bels them the practical school
and the theoretical school.
On the face of it that puts
those favoring theory at a heavy
disadvantage since, in the lan-
guage of semantics, "practical"
is a good word and "theoretical"
a bad word. Rut Robert M.
Hutchins. president of Chicago
University and generally recog-
nized as the leading spokesman
of the theoretical school, meets
that issue head-on. In an article
in Nation's Rusiness, he says
flatly that
"The most practical education
is the most theoretical one
Mr. Hutchins thus explains
his paradox:
A university can study busi-
ness. It cannot produce busi-
ness men. It can promote under-
standing. It cannot train prac-
titioners. The way to learn how
to practice anything is to prac-
tice it under the conditions un-
der which you will have to prac-
'ice it in real life. The way to
understand anything is to group
its theory and its principles.
To Mr. Hutchins. the func-
tion of formal education is to
teach people how to think and
to provide some of the tools of
ironoral fact and truth. It is not
to apply those truths. That
comes later, in the post-gradu-
ate schooling we know as the
business of living and making
a living.

Parade Of Opinion
Access To The Local Bowling- Alley Is Sought
This week the Administration received for consideration
and possible endorsement a petition signed by all members of the
Women's Student Government Council and the Men's Student
Government Council reauesting that students be allowed to use
the facilities of the bowling located near the college. The petition
explained an investigation had been conducted recently, setting
forth that the management maintains the establishment in an or-
derly manner, and that such a privilege would provide healthful
recreation for students. When students enter college they have
not stopped growing mentally or physically, and bowlingis one
phase of recreation that will aid their physical development. In
many instances the women's council has been kept busy trying to
eradicate loafincr by girls in some of the downtown drug stores.
This would relieve some of the congested conditions in these
popular hangouts and provide exercises for the girls simultaneous-
ly All in all. if using the bowling alley merits the endorsement
of the councils, it is worthwhile. Aspirations of the students are
voiced through these organizations.
We Hope You Weren't Insulted
Last week a notice was posted outside the door of the staff
room of the Trco Echo calling attention to the fact that the room
was primarily for the use of students who produce the school news-
paper. This did not mean we couldn't have visitors, as we wel-
come business or friendly visits from students whom we represent
at any time. The notice, however, was for the benefit of those who
cannot conduct themselves in an orderlv manner and insist on
wrecking the furniture, disturbing others, and failing to have a
purpose behind their visit. The office of the school newspaper, or
any other office, is not a public playground, even though some
students have regarded it as such. We want students to feel at
home in the staff room. If some have tried to feel at home, then
their parents have failed to do a good job in rearing their child,
it you were in charge of an office and someone disturbed-it, you'd
want this condition eradicated immediately. We have tried to be
as courteous as possible, but it failed to have any effect If it
takes insults to encourage some members of the student body to
lact like ladies and gentlemen, we can provide those too!

sincere desire to rid herself of anti-American elements. At least

Continued from Paije One
money to make further study in
Europe possible.
From his first public singing
at ice cream festivals and
church picnics, Allan Jones has
traveled a long road�a road
that has led him onward and
upward, always to greater
heights and more success. His
father early recognized the fine
quality of his son's voice and
encouraged him in his choice to
make music his life work. After
finishing high school young
Jones worked at the mines as a
laborer, then as a steam shovel
operator, until he had saved
enough money to enable him to
enter S y r a c u a e University.
"While there he won a scholar-
ship to the University of Xew
York, where he studied with
Claude War ford.
Jones has studied in France
and in England on several oc-
casions. Upon returning to the
United States, after his second
stay abroad, the rapidly rising
tenor was offered the title role
in "Boccaccio" by Charles Wag-
ner.
His success in the operatic
realm b r o u g h t wide-spread
praise and motion picture con-
tracts with Metro-Goldwyn-
Mayer and Paramount Studios.
In Hollywood he married the
; beautiful and talented young
actress, Irene Hervey. The Al-
i Ian Joneses lead a very happy
j married life and are only apart
1 when Jones is off on the con
j cert tours that his present con-
! tract with Paramount allows
him to make two months out of
each year.
Allan Jones' chief interest,
other than his music and
family�he has a young son and
daughter.�is fine horses. He
owns, with actor Robert Young,
a riding academy in Bel Aire.
His idea of a real, honest-to-1
goodness vacation is to pack a
camping equipment on a horse,
mount another one. and head
for the beautiful wilderness of
the lofty Sierra Xevada Moun-
tains.
Such has been the full life of
progress and accomplishment of
the popular singer and stage
personality who will present a
vocal concert here on our cam-
pus Friday night. Februarv 14,
