questions of today, as presumably a
world organization will take the

The speaker pointed out that the
present system of Senate ratification
of treaties has hindered the nation in
various ways in its negotiations with
other countries. He also explained
the weakness of having amendments
.which have little chance of being
! passed. He doubts the wisdom of the
proposed amendment requiring the
support of the houses as it has not
,nly all of the weaknesses of the
present system, but some new ones
as well.
"The treaty negotiations that will
probably come out of the California
Conference have a better chance than
most to be ratified Dr. Edsall de-
clared.
In telling of her experiences in re-

Avoid Those Last
Minute Rushes
Most of us, as students, are sooner (and
in all probability it will be sooner) or later
faced with a "last minute rush
It may have begun the time you woke
lip at 7:55 a.m. and made it to breakfast.
Or. what about the time you were down in
the "Y" store and someone said it was time
for the bell, so you scooted upstair and ar-
rived puffing and puffing just as the bell
rang?
Most of us in that "last minute rush"
breath a sigh of relief that we are finally
through! I think no one should be able to
do this more earnestly than those who work
in the bookroom as the quarter ends, those
who put up the lunch mail, those who serve
the 9:25 customers in the "Y" store, and
those who serve in the dining hall on Thurs-
day and Sunday.
Everywhere you turn there are excellent
examples of rushing. Why 1 know a report-
er who had to write a copy in ten minutes
so that it could get to press that morning.
Tick! Tick!
The point is what are we going to do
about it? Of course there are some argu-
ments on both sides, but to use an old saying
"You are the masters of your own fate So,
its up to you!
Granted, some rushing has to be done,
but there are times when, if we planned
ahead, we could avoid some of those "un-
avoidable" (?) moments. What does your
"date" think about it?
Students Should Cooperate
In May Day Exercises
In less than a month the college will
have the May Day exercises. For this to be
a success the students will have to cooperate
with the committees in every way possible.
The committees will need people to give sug-
gestions, and to help plan and decorate if
this is to be the best May Day yet.
Let's remember that it is for us that the
May Day is jriven. We are the ones that will
enjoy watching the dances and the court: we
are "the ones that will have benefit of the
dance that night. So. fellow students, let's
be willing to help. Promise ourselves that
we will do all in our power to make this a
May Day that will go down in the history of
the school.

Thomas volunteered as a private three years

ue, the subject aims to serve as an
introduction to and motivation for
foreign language study, also as a
basis of preparation foro prospective
teachers of similar courses at the
high school level.
"Objectives of the purely cultural
college course in General Language
are broader than those of the corre-
sponding secondary school course
according to Professor Siegfried H.
Muller, instructor of the study course.
"While a vital function of the col-
lege course is the preparation of
prospective language teachers, stu-
dents of the social sciences should
also derive benefits. Methods and
subject matter depend on the level
at which the course is given, but the
pattern of instruction should be built
around a survey of existing languages

velopment without attempting a
working knowledge of any particular
