I V0}: XFV,,,.,_4ANEARY 15: 1 An Annual Unfortunate Situation 1 We, wonder how many of us approach the lastl few weeks of the semester to find that we are! confronted with the enormous task of doing (orl at least finish doing) what we should have been, doing throughout the semester in the matter of completing assigned academic tasks? It appears that it would be practically impos-l‘ siblc to ascertain the number and percentage oi", the entire student body that are guilty; but we, are afraid that if a group were to be selectcdl which had the highest percentage, it could be done j rather easily. The group would be the seniors. This statement of a situation that occurs every l fall semester is not intended to hurt anyone’s feel» i ings, and it may, in fact, be an exaggerationl, However, the situation does seem quite apparent; and demands explanation and, if possible, cure. l Explanations of how such a condition can arise} arc in the main of the following nature: l l. A tendency to procrastinate is easily de~i veloped in a year when extra—curricula organize? tions require the most time and el’l’ort of any yeari in college. Thus, the presence of the senior lath—ll argic period. ; > 2. Although it is believed unworthy in mind and spirit of an Armour senior, perhaps a bit of the psychology of the “depression" with its atten— dant difficulties has seeped into the upperclass— men’s minds and realizing it will be a hard propo- sition to secure a job after graduation, they have fallen behind schedule. l There are other explanations that could bel mentioned, each one being applicable to certain situations. But, from a consideration of the ones cited above, it can be seen that every one suggests its own cure, at least on a long time basis. This cure will be unique for each situation, whereas, the only cure that will relieve the strained circumstance immediately is an applica- tion of an “old—time” remedy, the “midnight oil.” Something To Bear in Mind Something for every Armour student to bear in mind as he. forges onward toward graduation from college in the Junes to come is a resolution to keep in touch with the Institute after com— mencement. By this it is meant that every Ar. mour man should be registered with the place— ment bureau and a member of the Armour Tech Alumni Association. l It is obvious that such a policy on the part ofl every Armour man will work to the advantage ofl both the individual and Armour institute as a whole. l mah own livin. It is very realistic. \ ‘* game that is sporting:r to the senior chemicals. A twenty-Jive came tour— nament is being held between battlingr Schnackcl and Wittckindt (the brains of the pair), and smiling Hahn and Dellang. The latter pair seems to have put our battlcrs on the spot with their decidedly conserva- tive, bidding, as against Schnackcl’s reckless bids. At the present mo- l mom. the score stands 4-2, with Hahn land DcLang on the long end of the scoring. We shall try to keep every- one posted on the progress of the ter- ,1 rific struggle.

Brothers Pflum and Kuchn were in the city for the holidays and paid the house a visit. Brother Pflurn is with the C. M.
