Panel Debate
Y

members on the campus are opposed to compulsory military training for men, according to
the results of a vote taken following a panel discussion of arguments pro and con held Tuesday
night at a joint Y meeting.
Scott Reed Presides
Scott Reed presided over the discussion in which Rex Turley, Virginia Baskett. Claudine Gibson, and
Bob Preston participated.
The objection of some was that
the training would "interfere with
democracy, and destroy all American forefathers had fought for;
that the U. S. would plunge Into
war sooner if it had a standing
army than if we had to build from
scratch."
Money Question Raised
It was also questioned as to where
the money would come from, since
the national debt will be so tremendous after the present conflict.
Some felt that training of this sort
would be good for the health and
discipline of the young men, but
there was also some feeling that
s.
there would be bad
The problem of interrupting the
education of young men just out
of high school also entered in. and
it was stated that it might be hard
for them to adjust themselves after
being segregated from society in
general for a year.
At the end of the discussion the
audience indicated by votes that
they disapproved
of compulsory
training after-thwar.

Phi Epsllon fraternity houses.
45 Freshmen Move
Approximately 20 freshmen are
now living in the Sigma Phi Epsilon
house with Mrs. T. W. Sweatt as
house mother, and 25 freshmen are
in the Kappa Sigma house with
Mrs. Bertha Bruce as house mother.
Dean of Men T. T. Jones said this
week. Upperclassmen who vacated
Kinkead hall found quarters in
town with the help of Dean Jones.
The new soldiers, 96 reserves and
44 advanced engineers, bring the
total of military men on the campus to approximately
300. They
will begin their studies on Monday.
The 170 soldiers previously stationed at the University returned
this week from one week furloughs.
Quarters Temporary
Dean Jones said that the quartering of men in the fraternity
houses was temporary as is government operation of Kinkead and
Breckinridge halls, because these
students may be called to the army
at any time. The present housing
system is In accordance with the
ruling that first year men students
must live in residence halls.
The Sigma Phi Epsilon house had
been in use as a boarding house by
men students, and the Kappa Sigma
house was a residence hall for

To Sing At 4 p. m.
By Casey Goman
Mona Paulee, young
who won the Metropolitan Auditions of the air last year, will present the musicale at Memorial hall.
Sunday at 4 p.m.
Remembers First Solo
Miss Paulee well remembers her
first solo appearance on the stage
as a singer when she was ten years
old. "Father owned a movie theatre
in Oregon at that time," says Miss
Paulee. "It was a small one. but It
had a stage, and a pit for an
orchestra, although most of the
time, we just had an organ. It was
about 1926. and of course, there
were no talkies then. And so to
lighten up the silent film program,
the words of some of the current
popular balads were flashed on the
screen, so that the audience might
sing them in a chorus to the organ.
But the audience never sang. Maybe
they were frightened. Maybe they
were just lazy. Or maybe they liked
to listen to the organ music alone."

Not Bashful
Miss Paulee says. "At any rate.
I was far from bashful. I loved the
sentimental lyrics, 'and the melodious tunes, and so, all alone, almost
every performance I'd sing Char- ma ine and Diane. I guess the
audience must have liked it, because
they never walked out on me. I
used to stand down hi the pit because I didn't like being seen, and
while the colored slides were being
thrown on the screen, I sang end
that was four shows on Sunday, too.
Those were really my first appear
ances in public, and I hate to admit
it. but at that momentous epoch in
my life, I was still wearing braces
on my teeth, and wore my hair In
two stubby pigtails!"
Program Scheduled
Miss Paulee's program changed
somewhat and she stands on the
'stage, now. "'
She will sing "Dido's Lament,"
Dido and Aeneas, by Purcell; "Se

"Nacqul all' aff ano," from La

In asking Uie survey question
"What do jou consider the University most In need of?" we found
students ready with answers, such
as new buildings and equipment,
more forms of recreation, and more
departments in academic work.
No university can ever be complete in every senate. However, after
this war, there will be many improvements taking place on campuses all over America. For the
present, though, all we can do is
plan and plan safely and thoughtfully.

that a benefit bridge should be given
in the Union and the money donated to the Infantile Paralysis drive.
"Many organizations sponsor such
projects and benefit from it. The

and the University
could do many such things to help
the Infantile Paralysis drive or the
War Bond drive," she said.
One sophomore coed suggested
that there be more forms of recreation on the campus. "Since some
