A SERMON FOR CLUB S
We naturally do not agree with the fanatical observation of Merry Sunshine in th e
next column that all the clubs on the campu s
from the Chess Club to the Players Club ar e
mere excrescences on our student life becaus e
they require so many minor potentates to ru n
them . In fact, we believe that by this time h e
must have outgrown this belief, or at least ,
that he would have outgrown it if it had eve r
been his belief.
We do not see why there should not b e
twice as many clubs as there are, provided tha t
sufficient interested students can be found t o
make each one of them a really live organization. If there are twenty students on thi s
campus who are so obsessed with the love o f
studying history that they not only spend al l
their university career listening to history lectures and writing history essays, but also wis h
to make history their recreation, they shoul d
by all means do so . For, as most people realize, one of the main benefits of attending a
university is the social contact which it offer s
with other students, and which must com e
through channels other than lectures an d
essay-writing. Organizations such as clubs an d
fraternities give this contact .
The clubs at this university are, however ,
open to criticism ; they are not carrying out
their functions in the manner in which thos e
functions should be carried out. And in this
respect they might very well take a lesso n
from the fraternities - by rushing prospectiv e
members . By the term rushing as employed
here is not meant the hectic system followed
by fraternities, but a greatly modified one de signed to meet the need of the particular clu b
concerned . It need only consist of one ope n
meeting held each year in the spring term ,
both in order to allow prospects to meet th e
members, and to see for themselves whethe r
they wish to become members of the organi zation or not, and also, to allow the member s
to meet them and thus vote intelligently whe n
the election takes place .
At the present time, the average freshman's
or sophomore's idea of an undergraduate clu b
is a vague idea that it is very exclusive and
highbrow, and if he thinks that it might interest him, he applies for membership, while i f
he feels that it would not interest him, he for gets about it .

A trivial but noticeable example of the tendency of undergraduates to adopt methods an d
habits without reasonable examination o f
their suitability is the fashion in which a larg e
proportion of the students wear their mufflers,
This fashion of tying half a granny-kno t
and bringing the uppermost portion down i n
a sort of waterfall effect over the sternum ha s
been adopted from the habit of the British
navvy, who so disposes his conventional whit e
silk scarf in order to conceal the total absence of a collar or tie beneath .
In its original purpose, and form, the light
piece of material being worn beneath the vest ,
insofar as it would cover it, it was an excellen t
idea and a becoming type of adornment .
However, ' when the fashion was taken u p
by the undergrad, he retained the form, bu t
discarded the purpose and the materials . It
was adapted to bulky and violent colore d
wool mufflers worn over the coat and beneath
the top-coat .
This unfortunate combination tends to giv e
the wearer an appearance similar to that of a n
indignant turkey-buzzard with a bad attack of
gastritis in the crop .
It is combination of the ridiculous and th e
useless, and only too frequently accompanied
with manifestations of a smug assurance o f
fashionable smartness.
Misapplied Dragooning
It was my misfortune to approach a member of the Students' Council yesterday in m y
capacity of reporter in order to verify or obtain a denial of a story that appeared in a
downtown paper . My sole greeting, and the
sum total of the information I obtained, wa s
a concise characterization of newspapermen .
It appears that they are about seven degrees lower than a Buenos Ayres white slave r
in their morality, and possess a keen and devil ish intelligence which they devote entirely t o
precipitating catastrophes on the heads of inno cent citizens . (I omit the profanity.)
This was applied indiscriminately to all per sons who are employed by the press to writ e
news.
I know nothing about the details behind the
story which appeared. It looked like legitimat e
reporting, though by no means in line for a
Pulitizer prize .
I care still less . What does arouse me is
the presence on our governing body of a per son who, because of a real or fancied difference with one reporter, considers himself privileged to cast aspersions and heap abuse o n
all other members of that trade.
This is of the more importance as it i s
But as a matter of fact, no body can for m through the campus reporters that the Unian accurate idea of a club from reading abou t versity makes most of its contact with the pubit in the Handbook . He must judge by per- lic.

THE UBYSSEY
Friday, January 11, 1935

Although the University of Nevada
"Sagebrush" is published in Reno it
makes an exception to the genera l
rule and announces a forthcomin g
marriage . It appears that Robert S .
Griffin, an English instructor, is t o
wed an Honor Graduate in Home
Economics . Apparently the wily professor wants to take no chances with
the much dreaded malady indigestion .
Speaking of marriage and so forth ,
here is the announcement of a new
course to be offered to Reno students
by the psychology department:
"A course in marriage, humemakin g
and divorce to be open only to upperclass men and women students of
the University of\ Nevada, and comprising a "frank discussion of marriage and divorce problems", will be
offered for the first time next semester," Dr. James R . Young, head of
the department of psychology, disclosed today .
With an avowed purpose of helping
students avoid unhappy marriages ,
the course is almost identical with
the one which is offered by the Univeralty of North Carolina . Similar
courses are given at the universitie s
of Wisconsin and Washington.
In outlining the course Dr . Youn g
stated that approximately two-third s
of the marriages of the university' s
graduates are successful, and the suggested course in the problems of
courtship, adjustments in personality ,
divorce, problems of the unmarrie d
and numerous other phases of the
marriage question, should tend t o
make more of these marriages sue earful.
"The course will be offered In absolute )seriousness . Haphazard guidance on marriage is outdated, an d
we need scientific guidance on fact s
which are known . " he said,
"After all, a successful marriage I s
a happy one, and this course is fo r
happy marriages Every angle wil l
be discussed on n rational basis. "
The university authorities seem t o
be tryin gto ruin the most thrivin g
business their lime-town has eve r
known .
. r
Crime is rampant on the Nevad a
campus . The "Sagebrushz" announce r
that somebody has stolen a set o f
dishes belonging to the campus
National Education Wee k
Slated For Next Wee k
Hilarious Hike
Held by Pepsters
At the conference of the Canadia n
Teachers' Federation held last Aug.
in Toronto, plans were laid for a
Dominion wide Education weak . Thi s
resolution, brought forward by th e
B .C . delegates, included the settin g
up of several committees, and these
after some work on the plans, haw .
announced a Dominion Educationa l
week from Feb . 3 to 9 .
The purpose of this week, as out lined in the program, is to acquaint
the general public with some of th e
objectives, achievements and possibilities of Canadian schools . People
in all parts of the country will be
induced to visit the schools when in
actual session ; to see foe themselve s
what is being accomplished.
Radio addresses . newspaper stories,
and other means will lee used to
arouse a nation-wide interest .
A possible feature in B .C . will b e
the "Open House" which was so successful in the university last year .
An endeavour is being made to ex tend this to all faculties, instead o f
confining it to Applied Science . Whil e
nothing definite. has been arranged,
it is understood that the "Open
House" Is a strong probability .
Five green faces and five gree n
hats dismounted from the p lehin g
West Vancu .aver ferry on Doc . 41st
and were greeted by one green ha t
containing Lloyd Hobden and p it do g
Physiognomy . Thus began the Pe p
Club hike . When a count was mad e
it was found that out of fourtee n
Pepsters expected, eight stayed hom e
because of hangovers and other un forseen circumstances. As is usua l
on all good hikes, the first step wa s
to weigh the packs on a slot ma chine, which disclosed tic followin g
stupendous weights : Ex-pres . Si d
Swift—70 lbs . (including 30 lbs . of
coke), Pres . Bill Tremnine—7 lb . ( a
raincoat and 6 eggs), Jack Randlo —
40 lbs ., Ken Crant—30 lbs., Norm D e
Poe—30 lbs., and Lloyd liobden—over
35 lbs . the tried to weigh his pack
on the same cent that Sid used) .
In spite of 1)ePoe's protests, Randl e
removed his pants and scampered u p
the mountain in his shorts . Due t o
the unfailing efforts of DePoe, (guide ,
philosopher and friend) he, Randl e
and Grant lost .the way, and arrive d
at the cabin two hours after the fleeter of foot who went on ahead ,
Tom Lea, Bob Thompson and Sta n
Nowlan could not withstand the multifarious attractions of such company, and arrived towards evening .
The evening was spent in an unholy game of poker, played wit h
macaroni for chips, although three
laddies wnet over to the ski-cam p
and got drunk on a glass of eider
The fun began about midnight ,
when everyone 'tent to bed : Grant
began throwing around orange peel ,
Hobden reclpr :icated by ;!crowing bacon, while DePoe aroused even th e
inactive pepsters to action with hi s
steady stream of wisdom and puns .
At 4 p.m . in desperation Tern Lea
and Sid and Jack Randle co-operate d
in removing the aforementioned gentleman (?) from his cosy nest, an d
rolling his nekkid form in the col d
snow . This humenitarinn act dampened his enthusiasm, and he subs! ded until 6 a .m . when the fire was
put on.
The morning of the second day

How this V.C .U . movemen, seems t o
spread !
We also notice that Reno student
has obtained a patent on an artlfica l
sponge of his inventio,i . What a
blessing is higher education !
Washington State Normal is in the
midst of a strenuous campaign connected with student elections . In
keeping with American tradition political machines of various, sorts figh t
for control. Ward bosses back candidates and everyone has a swel l
time of it . Maybe if we starte d
something like that on this campus
we could get up enough interest to
have a quorum at Alma Mater meetings .
Washington State Normal help s
ambitious students by allowing the m
to do janitor's work on the campus .
I wonder what the janitor's union
thinks of the idea .
Several new courses ere being offered at the Normal among which i s

Here is your weekly health report
culled from the "Northwest Viking" :

Tsh,tsh! They had tueir New Years '

us in grade school .

Noon today will see the second return basketball tilt with
the College of Puget Sound in the Varsity gym. This will b e
this year's last and best opportunity for students to see thes e
two teams in action, and as the admission charge will be onl y
a thin dime, it will be well worth the money .
In the first game on the C,P .S. O
home floor the loggers eked out a
30-29 victory. But the next night the
B.C . boys came back to hand than a
five point 33-28 defeat . The score of
last night's game, not known at th e
time of writing, may be found else where on this page . Judging fro m
