Letters To The
Editor Dear Editor,
This letter is in reference to the page one story of April 24, 1952, headlined •·A.W.S. Presents Recommendations."
Such odious, restrictive action does no credit to any institution of higher learning. It is unfortunate that the narrow mindedness of whoever is responsible for authorizing such so-called "recommendations" has to be broadcast on the front page of our campu!: newspaper when this narrow provincialism may be noted by all who read the Exponent outside the limits of MSC.
Now before some reader of this jumps at conclusions, let me stale: this letter is not a defense or condemnation of the gentle act of imbiding alcoholic beverages. It is an objection to the restriction of ~ e free action of people who are approaching the age o! civic, mental, and legal maturity; people who are supposedly of above average intelligence.
With reference to the alleged reports "that drinking among women students has gotten out of hand," this writer is a male student and has been known to take a drink once in a while himself, but I am going to rise to the defence of the women on this charge.
In the years I have attended l\1SC, and these years ane rather numerous. I have noted little change in the drinking habits -of the coeds. However, if asked for an opinion as to whether drinking among campus women has increased or decreased, the answer would be that such drinking has decreased. This statement can be backed up in detail.
Now on to the next paragraph of the article; "for eniorcement as they see lit." the "they 11 being the women's organized houses. The happiest thing that could occur would be for these rules to rlie a quiet death. But what are the houses to do when such " recommendations" are presented to

Please stop now before it is too late. You didn't heed my warning you're still reading. Didn't I tell you a few lines back not to read this? If you don't quit now, you ·11 be sorry. Please stop. I beg you! Some people will never do what they are told lo do. I said defineUy not to read this. YOU'RE just wasting your time rcadlng this You should be using it f r studying.

Recommendation 1. No complaint on this.
Recommendation 2. The state legislature some
years ago decided the nice round age of 21 years constituted license to drink. It is only sensible to advise people to observe the law.
Recommendation 3. "Girls should never enter a
cocktail lounge without escorts." Now this is a matter of taste
and breeding. But "recommendations" do not point out the essentials of good taste. There was a time when women of good reputa tion never drank in public. Public practice has since altered this situation to the extent that among many people whose morals and habits are considered perfectly acceptable, there is no objection to women entering a bar without escorts. Conduct while in such places is far more important than merely entering or not entering.
Recommendation 4.-"No afternoon drinking.''
The time of day has no bearing on the pros and cons of the drinking question. It is no more moral or intelligent to take opium in the evening than in the morning. It is no more moral or intelligent to drlnk tea or coffee in the evening than in the morning. Drinking in daytime can be a symptom of alcoholism, but a person can be an alcii'liblic and never drink before six p.m. This is an odious, officious restriction which can never aid a particle in teaching anyone the ,,ecessity for' and advisability of moderation.

Survey Reports Todays Students More Responsible
A major cha11ge is taking place on college campuses over the nation. "Rah- rah" exuberance is giving way to sober purposefulness and hazing is being replaced by acts of community service. Today's college student is more mature, responsible and studious than his predecessors.
So reports Robert Stein, editor and author, after surveying more than 100 colleges and universities and talking with college presidents, deans, professors, guidance counselors and students. He describes his findings in an artic~ on "How Wild Are College Students?" in the May issue of U.S.A., lhe Magazine of American Affairs, out today.
"Unfortunatelyi" says Mr. Stein, "an account of several dozen
brawling, rioting students makes more dramatic reading than the story of 2 1
;! million young men and women quietly and e!fkiently going about the business of learning."' That's the reason, he explains, why the big change sweeping over college campuses has gone almost unnoticed .
One clear evidence of the new atmosphere is revealed in the decline of hazing and prank-playing and the diversion of energies
· they ?ormerly consumed to such acts as putting up student dormitories, painting and repairing homes of needy families, and performing other community services, Mr. Stein writes. He cites Wilmington College in Ohio, where students put in up to 400 hours each in constructing a $200,000 dormitory, which, because of their free labor cost the school Jess than $18,000. ,
College authorities are in general agreement, he found, that despite headlines about campus disorders today's undergraduat.es are more serious, sober and hardworking than earlier students.

Why 2 gallons of the gasoline yon buy today equal 3 gallons yon bought in 1926
\
I. We all know that today's petroleum products are vastly superior to those of 26 years ago. But very few of us realize that two gallons of today's gasoline will actually do as much work as three gallons did 26 years ago. The tremendous improvement of petroleum products is largely due to one thing: the research being carried on by U.S. oil companies.
2. In February Union Oil opened the doors of its new $8 million Research Center near Los Angeles. Here a staff of 300 will work on product improvement as well as petrochemical research -the development of the base chemicals for such products as synthetic rubber, detergents and plastics.
3. Over the last 61 years the money we have spent per year on research has risen steadily from $3 thousand to over $3 million. Why? Not because we like to spend money or because someone told us we must. But to keep ahead of our competitors -all of whom are working on new and improved products too.
4. These 30,000 U.S. oil companies-big and little- are all competing with each other. Consequently, the incentive to develop new and im· proved products or techniques is constantly with all ofus. This incentive is the driving force behind our whole free, competi~ve American system.
S. For it encourages the introduction of new and better products to a greater degree than could ever exist under a governmental monopoly:" As a result, the American people have the highest standard of living the human race has ever known. • •As long, that is, as the government doesn't ta:, industry to the point where ther6'1 no incentive left j<Yr research and development.

"M" DAY (Continued from Page 1)
A week later the sophomores
were granted a holiday, and sLxt:r
men set-out. to render the great servke. It. says in the Annual they
went to Ute fish hatchery at the base of the s lope on bicycles, in
buggies, and automobiles. There
is no question about t11e eagerness of the class of '18. They toiled from six-thirty in the morning w,til sunset without ceasing. The outlines as set by the survey party were first filled in with larger rock and then material of all sizes was aumped on to flll the letter. This accounts for U1e whitewashed beer cans that have be~n foWld on the 111. The rocks had to be handled and put into place with the utmost caution. Due to the steepness of the slope if a. rock were dropped it would roll down the n1ow1tainside with increasing
velocity, taking fi£ty to a. hundred feet at a bowtd. It was noted by 01e survey party that their beer kegs would take as much as twohundred feet at a bound.
Late in the afternoon the girls of the class arrived on the scene with no less spirit than their classmates on the hill, and served refreshments and a hardy meal to the bungry toiLers. The entire class gathered around the bonfire and refreshment kegs. The account of the rest of the evening is rather obscure.

Novy Offers Aviation Interviews
U . S. Navy has always encouraged young men to stay in col
lege as long as possible. They
state that the advantages of higher education will make them more valuable in military life as well as in society. The national defense effort is best aided when college students remain in their classrooms, learning as much as they possible can, until the time when they will take their places in the armed forces.
Naval Aviation Cadet program is announced as an opportunity for college trained men to join the ranks of its airmen as commissioned officers.
Several thousand young Americans are trained annually as Navy pilots at the "Annapolis of the Air''. in Pensacola, Florida. A
candidate for Navy flight training
must have passed his 18th but not
his 27th birthday. He must not
have received orders to report for
actual Selective Service induction.
He must be unmarried and remain
so until commissioned. The pros
pective cadet must have completed
a minimum of two full years of
college and be in excellent phys
ical condition. In. addition to passing a physical examination, he must pass aptitude tests and be selected by a screening board, which reviews the qualifications of all applicants.
Entrance requirements are stiff, but the Navy prides itseU in the selection of top level collegians for its Naval Aviation Cadet Training program.
Representatives from the program will be on :MSC's campus May 29. Interviews will be scheduled by the Placement office.

Its subject: How have college graduates made out?
Published by Harcourt, Brace. Now on sale at your local book store.
How this book came about
They Went to ColleAe is based on a survey sponsored by TIME, whose interest in this group stems naturally from the fact that most ofTIME's readers are college-trained.
TIME is written for you and people like you, people like the thousands of graduates of the more-than-a-thousand American colleges who answered TIME's questionnaire and revealed many facets of their lives-from the courses they took, to their religious beliefs.
This mountain of data was tabulated and analyzed by Patricia Salter West at the Columbia University Bureau of Applied Social Research, then turned. over • to Ernest Havemann, a former editor of TIME and a specialist at making interesting reading out of statistical material.
The result is a book of major importance to everyone.
IS it true that our colleges are turning out atheists and radicals?
How do graduates stack up against the selfmade men who battled their way without the help of four years in college-but got a four-year head start in the business world?
Are they better husbands and wives? Is a sheepskin really worth all the effort?
You'll find answers to your future in the answers to these questions, questions that are explored in They Went to ColleAe, TIME's new book about one of America's most influential groups of people, the U. S. college graduates.
In its pages, you'll peer into the post-graduation careers of the ex-Greasy Grind, the exBMOC, the ex-All-Around Student and the One Who Just Sat There.
How many of them married, how many
children did they have, who got divorced, who got the best jobs, what do they think of courses they took?
These are just a few of the former dark areas of conjecture and folklore light up by this unprecedented study.
Low-Down on Higher Learning
They Went to ColleAe is required reading for everybody who wants the real low-down on higher learning.
If you're an undergraduate, you'll learn much about your probable future.
If you're a college graduate, you'll find out how you stack up against your peers.
If you're a teacher, you'll discover what has become of your students.
And, no matter what your interest, you' ll find fuel for plenty of debate in this book.
Be c a u se its audience represents one of the largest conccntra · tions of college graduates reading any major magaxine in the world today, TIME, The Weekly Newsmagazine, undertook the comprehensive study which is the basis of this milestone book.
