HERE SHALL THE KERNEL ALL
STUDENT RIGHTS MAINTAIN
LESSONS IN ABUSE

If the amount of. correspondence this paper
has received concerning the condition of buildings and of the campus in general is indicative
of the seriousness of the problem, we are forced
to believe the problem is a serious one indeed.
The general complaint seems to be that an
of trash, refuge and other waste
particles litters the floors, and that pencil marks
and match scratches give evidence that students
are careless of the use they make of the various
buildings.
As reluctantly as we hate to admit it, it may
be dogmatically stated that, although the barbed
wire fences which surround the campus are an
eyesore, a nusiance, and even a physical menace,
they are necessary. Past experience has taught
the department of buildings and grounds that
students will take short cuts, and in so doing,
will kill the blue grass for which this region is so
famed.
It seems a shame that the' student body
not more regard for equipment than it has.

WRITING CRAZE
essayists, playwrights, and those streamMany
lined reocrders, the journalists, have lamented
in print the sickening overflow of people who
think they can write. Magazine editors and
newspaper editors are constantly beseiged by
carloads of articles and swaggering young men
whose literary talents the world waits for anxiously. A situation such as this exists here on
the campus.
The Kernel editors became disgusted with
their reportorial staff at the end of the first semester and issued a challenge to young scribes
who are infected with the prevalent writing
mania, to call at the news room, present a rough
outline of their genius, and take a position in

As a result, we have a new array of embryonic
Brisbanes and George Selah Clarkes.
Another sample of the craze is the mobs of
students who have enlisted in reporting classes,
taking the course in typewritten expression rather than zoology or citizenship. The professors
of elementary journalism play to standing room

Chiefly blamable are the movies which constantly cast the heroic star reporter as a whiskey-loving- ,

editor of disorderly conduct, who solves the
mystery of the Secretary of State's death, and who

motion pictures can exert.
Next to blame are the many inferior short
stories and essays that have apjeared in exclusive magazines.
What dreamer has never read
some story, some cloud of halitosis, that inspires
him to thoughts of achieving recognition in a
