i’ago ii m...“ “lflilllih our By What-rein Spitz On several occasions during the past week we have entered into very serious discussions of college education and its values to the student and especially to the civil- ization in which we live. It may be very pertinent at this time to point out some of the points put forth by members participating in these very informal chats as it does every college man at least an infinitesmal bit of good to take Time (lot and put a line comb through his very reasons for existence. (Two of the prim:~ ipal gentlemen taking part in these meetings are closely con- nected with the institute, but be- cause they were not consulted at this writing their names will re- main anonymous. Point number one propagated was that a very small percentage of college students show any (special talent {or the line of work they are undertaking marl might very well be much better fitted for some other line of endeavor. They poseibly were destined to molar: use of their hands rather than bruins (not (all are Messed, very few in foot). A second important fact brought to light was that many collegians get absolutely nothing out of their four years or so of college that they could not have gotten with» out attending an institution of higher education. The reasons for this are many. it seems that most of these students have put nothing into the four years. They were naturally endowed with enough ability to successfully pose the academic work, some oi“ which can he learned without school and put forth very little energy to grasp any real human values from out of the maze of interests of. fronting the student. The Student is accosted with many others like himself who can become lasting friends. Many friendships are foolishly overlook- ed in college and the graduating educated senior finds himself no better off than when he was a green freshman. There are many organizations and activities on the normal college campus which (le- rive their very existence from friendship and the value of learn. ing how to live with your icllow man. Chief among these are athletic teams, which are not formed chiefly for amusements, but for the development of the student‘s relationship with other students. Athletics are but, one outlet for friendships. it should not be ne- cessary to check through the list of worthwhile activities. Ask yourself just one question ——iltm I wasting four years during my college life? Take Time Gut and think! TRACK iTENlS For the Midwest Invitational Track meet held at Naperville, llliv nois, on Saturday, March 1, spon- sored by North Central College, Coach Norm Root of Illinois Tech sent seniors George Matthews and John Elwood; juniors Harry Hei- denreich, Wayne McCullough and Dick Barry; and sophomore Don Keigher.

Anyway, Sonny W'eissmzm has ordered practice in the gym for all players and anyone who wants to make the team. The practice takes place everyday in the Armour gym from 12 to 3 o’clock and from 5 to 6 on Monday and Wednesday. At pres— ent there are sixty men out but there is plenty of room for any one else. Coach Weissman would like to see a gang from Lewis throwing the ball around, too. Tech’s team should avenge the record of won and lost from last year since there are nine letter- men returning. Co-capts. Krause and Ranch, Yursis, Lukens, Car- rier, Grosse, Archinakian, ’l‘hodos, and Mueller are the returning men. Besides the need for players there is a call for a sophomore manager for the team. This posi- tion is open to a sophomore either from Armour or Lewis. flee lgél‘l Many Stars To Perform March l5 Weeks are drawing,r near for the date of the 13th Annual illi- nois Tech Relays. Entries are coming with ever increasing speed and at the end of the first five days there were seven teams en- tered. These schools are the Uni« versiiy of lilinois, Central State Teacher’s college, Marquette uni. versiiy. Carleton college, North. western university, lowu Teach- er‘s college, and Milwaukee Teacher‘s college. Of course the University of lllinoie, Marquette, Northwestern, lowa Teacher's and Milwaukee Teacher’s college lli‘e repeats from last year. The other two are new to the Relays: Last March the Tech Relays fea- tured the sensational race in which Chuck li‘enske, formerly of Wisconsin broke the world’s rec- ord lor the three quarter mile run. The college two mile relay record was lowered by the Michigan Normal team from 8106.5 to 8205.3. in the University 70 yard dash the old record of 207.1 was tied by Gene Littler of Nebraska. Mer- quetie"s two mile relay men established a new mark for this distance when they romped across the wire in 7152.4 as againet the old merit of 7:53.22. ’1‘th your may hotter this list and other'marks that have been established for the Relays. Medley Team Returns Returning again is the whole loom from the University of illi- noie ‘il-’i‘liifll copped the sprint med— ic}; lilfiil year. These four men as an intact team will lie a serious threat to any contenders in this field. Also, returning with the llii ll liftll‘l’i are two members of the lost year’s winning one mile university relay team. With this of returning winners Illi- nos will he a threat it)" a first piece in the unlvcreity division. (ll) they ended in second place behind Marquette. Marquette returns again this r. However, they are shy in oi the stars that brought them victory last time. it will he up in the few men from the 133.30 team to form a nucleus for e [DD/SSH??? winning combination in the lull inlays. Northwestern Honda Stare Northwestern university will semi several men to the meet thie year "who did themselves proud last year. Among these men are Ed 'l'histlewaite, Jim Smith and Roi) Finch. Jim Smith swapped a first in the high jump while Bob Finch was second in a closely con- tested ill yard high-hurdle con- test. Ed ’l‘histlewaite was the champion of the. pole vault two years ago. Last year, however, he was forced to yield to two other lads who tied for first. This sea- son Ed is back again for another try at the pole vault mark. As in 1940 the public high school relay team will run in one of the special events on the evening pro. gram. One of the other special events will be a special junior col- lege relay which will feature some of the leading junior colleges of this section.
