The registrar said that the rea son the interesting George Bernard Shaw (of all people, murmured this reporter) is such good news paper copy, is due to the lact that he is extremely witty and that lie dares tell what’s on his mind. “Personally”, said Shuttleworth, -COMPLIMENTS OF THE HUB Carrollton, Georgia THE LEADER STORE OFFERS YOU JBIG THANKSGIVING SPECIALS THE WKST (iKOItCIAN.

Still insisting he came for news, the reporter questioned Shuttle worth about his office affairs. As an answer, he gave some good ad vice on improvements of paper and what properly treated publicity can do. And so no news but an interest ing feature article from Shuttle worth. Ciceronian Debates On Travel Question As Means Of Education The Ciceronian Honorary Liter ary Society held its regular meet ing on November 24th. President Virginia Shoffiett presided. The main feature of the program was a debate. The subject was: “Resolved that travel is a greater contributing factor in educating the individual than concentrated study of collected knowledge”. Frances Spradlin, Weems Boyd, and Owen Malcolm participated. After the program plans were made for a weiner roast which will be held after Thanksgiving. Elizabeth Strange and Elizabeth Burnham have been issued bids to the club because of their schoiasMc standing in the humanities. Ethel Lee McLarin was elected treasurer.

PLANS SUBMITTED FOR JOURNALISM CLASSES BY EDITORS-IN-CHIEF I I.AX CALLS FOR THREE OSE HOt’R CLASSES EACH WEEK A plan for classes in the essen tia’.: of journalism lias been sub mitted to President Ingram and Dean Gunn, according to Robert Knox newly-elected director of the Student Board of Publication. This plan, approved of and ac cepted by the Student Board, calls for three one-hour classes per week under the supervision of two pro fessors. A lecture, to constitute the first class each week, will be given by one professor. The other two class es, according to the plan originated by Knox, will be devoted to actual news writing and newspaper make up. Under this plan, the class would get much valuable training, the Student Board insisted. Although it would not give the same identic al instruction received in larger schools of journalism, it would meet the requirements as a course in social science, and would aid immensely in the publication of the West Georgian. Knox stated that since two-thirds of the course would deal with act ual laboratory work in journalism, the policy of appointing journalism students as West Georgian staff members would be followed. There are several attractive fea tures in this plan, stated Knox and the Student Board, and it is hoped that by the beginning of the winter quarter the courses will be estab lish ed. As to the credits for the courses, on "'0 r ' 1 ivaf available, but the Board believes that under the plan, only half course would be credited as the physical education courses.

In addition to this, Helen is a member of the Phi Sigma Alpha, Mu Zeta Alpha, and Soccer team. Extremely quiet throughout the entire interview, she stated that she was born, reared, and educated in Madison, Georgia, graduating from the Madison A. and M. School. Although her features resemble that of a Latin in many respects, Helen said that she thought her people came over from England about two centuries ago, and set tled in the south. She goes in for constant read ing of novels, liking best the light fiction by Kathleen Norris and her type. She' said that the best book she has read in a long time is the ever-famous “Romona”. The president of the Women’s Council is on the N. Y. A. working as assistant nurse and doing typ ing work for Miss Ward. She says that with this type of work she keeps a full schedule ahead all the uilTit!. Her mam topic of conversation, fortunate!} for the very young of the land, is child welfare and de velopment. After her graduation next June, she stated that she plans to teach in the upper ele mentary grades, attend a senior in stitution later, and in the end get her degree in education. Strange as it may seem, her pet hobbies consist particularly of studying and 'attending classes! Helen admitted that she hasn’t at tended a class yet which bored her. And at the same time, she said she hasn’t had either of the physical science courses. Luckily, Helen gets along swell with all types of people. Perhaps this is due mainly to the fact that she likes to be with herself most of the time. However, her estimation of boys goes thus: “Asa rule, I don’t espe cially care for boys; they're cute, and all like that, but none of them are very interesting. Just the same, nothing gives me greater joy than to see boys and girls have a good time, or, to put it as you hinted, make whoopee.” Very characteristic of herself, the child-idolizer said that she likes people when they are quiet, re- LOVVORN SHOE SHOP SHOE REPAIRING POLISHES, LACES PROMPT SERVICE MAKE OUR STORE YOUR HEADQUARTERS WHEN IN TOWN!!
