Home Economics
Course For Men
Creates Interest
Miss Ruby Jenkins announces
that, the new home economic course
men “1 lucation for Personal
Group i .i\ ig,” has created great
interest anti spirit among the
t.v\ entj boys now enrolled.
The course began with only three
in the class, she says, but now
the re are* two classes, one with
nine students, and the other has
eleven. The classes meet three
times a v, eek to discuss their own
needs a nersonal wants.
The way in which the class
grew was that some of the boys
came in and “sat-in” until they
were so interested, Miss Jenkins
explains, that they joined the class
es.
Another cause for the new in
terest, she added, was due to the
fact that the men already enrolled
talked with the other fellows a
bout the course, and finally won
them over.
Human as it may seem, Miss Jen
kins said that the secret of the
enthusiasm was that the boys were
so eager to know how to act in
front of girls!

Pill SIGMA ALPHA—A STUDENT
ORGANIZATION
By A Member
At a meeting of the Mu Zcta
Alpha last week, tjjc question of
student activities on this campus
actually being student activities
was discussed; and the members
of the honorary scientific society
agreed that there is no such organi
zation on the West Georgia Col
lege campus.”’—The West Geor
gian, November 24, 1936.
Whether the members of the
Mu Zeta Alpha, in their sweeping
indictment, used old or new facts
is not known. However, this mem
ber of Phi Sigma Alpha, not an of
ficer, sees things move, and claims
that the P. S. A. is actually a
campus organization.
Several facts bear this conclu
sion out, although Phi Sigma Alpha
does have three faculty advisors.
The programs so far this year
have been altogether student pro
gams, or programs by faculty mem
bers invited to speak before the
club by its members.
A club paper, the Georgia Alpha,
was thought up by a member of
the club; it was fostered by mem
bers of the club who presented the
plans to the faculty advisors, and
the club members chartered the
publication.
The club’s president appointed
an editorial staff which has been
allowed to determine the policy
of the paper. The material making
up the publication is determined
by Phi Sigma staff members with
out any supervisior whatsoever.
When the members of Phi Sigma
planned a quarter’s work in ad
vance they set a precedent that
was so successful that it is being
followed again without the aid of
an advisor. The Georgia Alpha
for December 15 contains the pro
gram for the Winter quarter’s dis
cussion. The said program was
thought up by members, was adopt
ed by a program committee com-
COLLEGIATE CHATTER
Roger Babson, in a recent ar
ticle in the New York Times pre
dicted that in the next score of
years half of the population in
the United States will be housed
in trailers in order to escape taxes.
College students seem to be lead
ers in the trailer movement. Roll
ins College in Florida is said to
be the first college to welcome a
trailer to its campus.
The State College of Agriculture
in Utah boasts of a trailer town
consisting of 16 trailers. Although
not quite as large as the trailer
town in Utah, one has sprung up
at the University of Georgia just
this year, and the idea seems to
be growing here at West Georgia.

Both Hobart and William Smith
Colleges have a four-year course
in responsible citizenship as a re
quirement for the A. B. degree. Dr.
Eddy, president of both colleges,
believes that the average college
student pays little or no attention
to political doings outside the col
lege.
The course is designated to make
die college student aware of an
interest in the political situa
tion’. of the stale, and to promote
responsible, well-trained citizens.

members.
Is there any need in insisting
that Phi Sigma is truly a student
organization in which the mem
bers are the club and not the
faculty advisors?
A DIRTY POKE
By Norman Tant
The trouble with our citizens
of today is the love of vague gen
eralizations based on covering up
of individuals and ourselves in
particular.
For a memorized speech about
“protect our youth from this hor
ror” stuff to be made from our
chapel rostrum is especially piti
ful when it common knowledge
that a bootlegger has been carry
ing on his business on the very
edge of the college campus since
the establishment of this very
institution .
He drives through the campus
smiling benignly on our students,
and he is apparently respected.
Why? Is it because our influential
citizens don’t give a skiddo or
they are too cowardly to act?
I am opposed to John Barley
Corn and I don’t care yyßo knows
it. I also commend this “protect
our youth” stuff. But I also want
to be known as one who is in
favor of decisive action against
the said evil.
We still have laws and law-en
forcing agents. What we lack
is a group of enraged citizens to
swear off warrants and prosecute
the devil that they so enthuiasti
eally thumb their respective noses
at. i
If we are so interested, forget the
fear of offending some body even
if he is a bootlegger. We might
not stamp out any racket but
we could make it uncomfortable
for its prosperity.

Robert Montgomery, William Boyd
and Richard Bennett get their mail

A proprosed seal for the college
is being drafted by the officials
of North Georgia College. To be
worn as the shoulder patch of the
cadet uniforms of the college, this
seal will have on it a wreath made
of Cherokee Roses and the front of
a crossed gun.
Some men keep their dates, oth
ers merely go out with them.
I’m glad that I’m not a blood cell,
For there’s a very good reason.
They’re always fighting some dis
ease and reproduced by fison.
A chii’opractor is a man who gets
paid for what any other man would
get slapped for.
A city and a chorus girl
Are much alike, 'tis true.
A city’s built with outskirts,
And a chorus girl is too.
Larger consumption of milk is
the last fifty years is attributed to
several factors, chiefly these: Im

Chieftain Prints To Be
Retaken This Week
Frank Kelly, editor of the Chief
tain, said Monday that the develop
ed individual prints arrived Sat
urday ready for the make-up but
the prints were not satisfactory.
Asa result, he reported, these
pictures are being made over, and
work will begin today.
He also announced that work
would be done under the personal
supervision of Thurston Hatcher,
one of the South’s leading photo
graphers.
The annual make-up has already
started, he said, and the layout
sheets have been placed in position.
Bob Richardson, business mana
ger, stated that the business staff
is making definite progress in
the ad selling.
Pledger Carmichael Is
Named News Editor
It was announced last night that
Pledger Carmichael had been nam
ed News Editor by Robert Knox.
Knox said that this office has
not existed in the past, but feeling
that the town students should be
represented by a student bearing
the rank of editor, and feeling that
Carmichael deserves a promotion
after such faithful duty this year,
he designated him as such.
Carmichael is in charge of the
Debating Club Tournament, and is
affiliated with other student acti
vities on the campus.
Editor Knox said that within the
next week the West Georgian staff
would be reorganized, and that sev
eral students would be dropped
from the staff. He complains of
their lack of interest and unwilling
ness to work.
Completion of Library
Is Seen For February
i
Plans, it was revealed, are for the
new library to be finished by Fe
bruary 15th, but occupation of it
will be delayed until sufficient
furniture can be secured.
Librarian Weaver expressed hope
that this will be in the very near
future.
She said that at the present time
there is a list of new books ordered
for the new building, chief among
which are texts in rural sociology,
humanities, and Children’s litera
ture.
Some girls like old ruins, es
pecially if they have plenty of
money.
