WHENCE THIS

EASY

Circulation Manic

Have you ever noticed how many students
boast of the little amount of work that they do,
how they "never crack a book," how they propound upon the theory that college is merely a
social institution, and then, having heard them,
looked at their standings? It is very odd, but
nevertheless it seems that these eternally indolent collegians make the best student standings. Their eternal indolence is merely a sham,
covering earnest study because they are ashamed to admit it.
There are very few students who will willingly admit that they spend a good portion of their
time following scholastic endeavors. Many of
their professors receive impression that they

sitters. It is a shame that such a state of con- ditions must exist, yet it seems that it is merely
a custom created by some older student body
and upheld by precedent. The Engineer, Law
and Commerce students are the only ones on
the campus who cheerfully and proudly admit
that they study. They are to be highly com- 'or their independence of thought and

The Kernel is condoning the fact that in this j

full reign In the direction for it is on this score that
"Dishonored" falls to please. It is
not often that a picture Is overdl-rcctc- d
but here we see the evil effects of that practice. "Dishonored"
is so technical in structure that
there Is no space for drama or entertainment despite the fact that
the original story, authored by von
Sternberg, shows promise of much
dramatic power. The plot involves
a seductifc spy In tho late war who
captures her victims through physical lure. By falling In love with
a rival spy, she brings about her
own destruction.
However, the
camera and sound effects arc so
revolutionary and the utter unimportance of dialogue is so striking
that "Dishonored" deserves high
praise as an artistic production.
"Scan Beneath"
For the motion picture surprise
of the week, the Ben All offers
"Seas Beneath" which features the
virile George O'Brien.. The Fox
studios turned out a piece of work
in this attraction that merits a
better title. As a thrilling melodrama, It has not been surpassed
for its action, a thing of which we
see too little on the talking screen.
Although this story also deals with
spies, John Ford did not make von
