MERE SIDELINE
Caring for Cows, Two Farms
Included in Student’s Duties
By Paul Burton
Most students seem to think going to school is a full time job, but
to 22-year-old Leslie Phillips, Canon, it’s a mere sideline.
After attending classes four hours each day, Phillips drives 60 miles
to attend his two (arms and 16 head
ot Red Pold cattle.
Comprised of 187 acres, his two
farms Include 53 acres of pasture
and 66 acres of cultivated land. Most
of the time he lives alone In a com
bination house and feed storage shel
ter, but sometimes stays with his
parents in town.
His only complaint with this dual-
purpose building is that sometimes
he Is awakened by the pitty-patter
of little cow hooves, walking around
in the house in search of food. This
occurrence is rare, however, because
he usaally closes the barn gate.
"Happy,” as the animal husban
dry major is affectionately called by
his friends because of his perennial
smile, got his start with money saved
from three and a half years in the
Navy. He is a veteran of submarine
service in the Pacific.
Cattle raising is his chief interest,
Phillips says, but he farms to grow
winter feed. He also produces small
cotton and corn crops.
His first bale of cotton this year
was an item of pride for the whole
town. His parents accuse him ot load
ing it on his truck and showing it
to everybody in town. He denies it,
but does admit "being mighty proud.”
His most cherished possessions are
his truck, tractor, and prize bull,
Ferdinand. He says a book came with
F'erdinand which "proves the bull
has a very aristocratic heritage.”
“A farm is the only place you can
work without folks telling you what
to do,” the young rancher gives as
his reason for choosing his profes
sion.

Stallings Discloses
$1,000 Scholarship
On Graduate Level
Zonta International, an organiza
tion for executive and professional
women, has established an Amelia
Earhart Graduate Scholarship for
women at the University, Dean Edith
Stallings said today.
A grant of 61,000 will be award
ed each year to a woman for gradu
ate study in engineering with special
Interest in aeronautics. The scholar
ship may be used in any approved
school where a high order of aero
nautical work is offered on the gradu
ate level.
A grant of the scholarship may
be renewed a second year if the
scholarship holder is better qualified
than any new applicant to continue
with the study.
Applications should be filed with
Zonta International by March 1, in
care of the chairman. J. Winifred
Hughes, Syracuse University, Mrs.
Stallings said.
A Zonta committee will pass on ap
plications.
A change in priorities for two-
bedroom units in the prefabs was
announced today by Dean William
Tate, housing committee chairman.
Primary preference still will be
accorded any veteran with children
now living in a trailer in the Univer
sity Village or in town, he said. Non
veterans with children, now living in
University Village trailers, will have
secondary priority on the two-bed
room units and non-vets with chil
dren in town will have third prefer
ence.
This move by the housing commit
tee replaces a six-year restriction on
non-veterans with children living In
the prefabs. The group explained
that the new policy was adopted be
cause an understanding that veterans
without children have full accom
modations in the trailers and those

A plea for volunteers to help In
the World Students Service Fund
campaign was I issued today
by Ronald Green, Atlanta, chairman.
Urging the cooperation and assist
ance of every student on campus,
Green pointed out that Uie students
of the University—through WSSF—
have pledged assistance to the stu

scarcity of books.
All students interested in doing
WSSF work should contact Charles
Z. Webb, Leary, at Joe Brown dormi

Lhis little gee-gee was all at sea. It was

reading about those rush-rush cigarette tests
— the quick sniff, the fast puff. “Hardly the
scientific approach,” he said in his confusion.
But then he realized that one test is an equine
of a different pigmentation—a thorough,
conclusive test of cigarette mildness.
