!. G. S. C. Offers Extension Service

BThe extension service which a college of- Brs brings the advantage of the college to ■achers who are in service. For several Bars in the earlier history of the college ■tie were two instructors who devoted all Heir time to extension work. Because of a ■ck of funds this plan has been discontinued but effort is being made to resume it to ■me extent this year. I Dr. Swanson will devote half of his time

m the work. Other numbers of the faculty lay take on classes as they can. ■ Last year classes were held at Oak Har-

Hj>r, Fostoria, Wauseon and Bryan. The re- ■onse so far this year is quite encourag- Ig. The plan of conducting extension work I as follows: classes meet once a week for ■ two hour period. Fifteen hours spent in

Basses entitle a student to one hour credit. In other words a three hour course would ■quire class attendance at forty-five 50- ■inute periods. Classes are conducted in ■c same manner as resident work. Refer- ■ce material may be sent out from the library. The fee is $3.50 per credit hour. As a rule a center should enroll fifteen ■udents to keep expenses within reason-

H>le limits.

PI KAPPA DELTA ■ Chapter Eta, of the national forensic

fcciety of Pi Kappa Delta, was establish- M in Bowling Green State College in 1930 ■ a result of the excellent forensic abilities of Howard George and Robert Tripp our ■rst contestants in the national tournament held every two years. ■ Of the 151 chapters in the order, Bowling Ireen holds 24th place in numbers of con- ■sts won with a score of 27. These tourn- ■nents specialize in debate, oratory and ex- ■mpore speaking for men and women. There K-e now 13,025 members, the largest of any Brensic group.

Assembly, Oct. 17, 1934 President H. B. Williams

The value of courtesy to an individual who exercises it is at least threefold: it is valuable in business; it is indispensable in social life, with few exceptions; and it is a determinant in the happiness of the in- dividual. So, very briefly summarized, President Williams pointed out its signi- ficiance at assembly last Wednesday. Pre- sident Williams supported his views with numerous illustrations and examples, he presented a very convincing argument, the moral to be inferred.

Franchon' DeVerna and Lester George provided the music.

MATHEMATICS CLUB

Tonight the mathematics club is present- ing the first of a series of discussions on non-Euclidean geometery with particular emphasis on its early development. These discussions are planned to show as Winger in his Projective Geometry says, "the stu- dent of mathematics will then see that while the three metric geometries are in fre- quent conflict with one another, each is valid in its own domain and one is as true as another in a mathematical sense. And he will be spared the view—only too com- mon even today—that non-Euclidean geo- metry is a grotesque and monstrous pro- duct of disordered imaginations. Indeed he will realize that a knowledge of non- Euclidean geometery is essential to a pro- per appreciation of Euclid, since Euclid is but a degenerate form of the others." All that have taken or are taking calculus are encouraged to meet with us in Room 310A.

TEACHERS' MEETING Several of the instructors of this college

will take part in the Northwestern Ohio Teachers Association meeting in Toledo next Friday and Saturday. Prof. Charles Church will entertain the group with a clarionet solo on Friday morning at the State theatre. He will be accompanied by Mannette Marble. Prof. Church and Miss Marble will appear again Friday after- noon before the Music Department group.

Dr. C. C. Kohl will give an address be- fore the Social Science group. Helen Hen- derson will preside as chairman of the Home Economics group. On Friday evening the teachers' chorus will sing six numbers in the Civic Auditorium at 7:30 under the direction of Noble Cain, conductor of the Chicago A Capella choir and vocal director of NBC, Chicago. A number of the music instructors and students of Bowling Green will be in the chorus.

Homecoming Annual Event

November 2 and 3

The twelfth annual Homecoming will be held here Nov. 2 and 3 to welcome old alumni and former students. Old graduates will be feasted Friday evening at an infor- mal dinner sponsored by the Woman's Club. The dance Friday evening is sponsor- ed by the Inter-Sorority and Inter-Frater- nity councils.

Saturday morning the Home Economics department will hold open house for its alumni. The W. A. A. athletic activities in- clude a hockey game between an alumni team and a W. A. A. team. The alumni par- ty early Saturday evening is restricted to alumni and members of the faculty. Later in the evening various organizations will entertain old members.

Each organization on the campus should make its plans to entertain its alumni and invitations announcing this sent to them. Then in order that there may be a central information bureau to which the visitors can go for information about the activities, each organization should leave a schedule of its activities which has been approved by the sponsor for the group with Miss Cummings in Dean Hissong's office.

Efforts should be made to make this an unusually enjoyable program for our alum- ni. Above all, our undergraduates should remain and take part in everyway that they can.

New Deal and Election

PI KAPPA DELTA (Continued from page 1) ANNOUNCEMENTS

The voters of the country will go to the polls on November 6, with their first op- portunity to register disfavor or approval of the Rooseveltian program.

In nearly every state, the New Deal has been made the chief issue of the cam- paign, with the Democrats and Republicans lining up for and against, respectively, the Administration.

Ohio, which has been always regarded as a pivotal state, is a case in point: Messers. Fess and Brown are just as denuciatory as Davey and Donahey are laudatory of the New Deal.

College students who are eligible should take part not only in the class and group discussions, and straw votes, but also by means of the absentee ballot, in the regular election.

It is the duty of college students to give to their state, their nation the benefit of their wider knowledge of issues and men, a knowledge derived from intelligent read- ing and from contacts with faculty and students.

Write to the Clerk of the Board of Elec- tions at your county-seat, immediately, for your absentee ballot.

hoped to develop a group of good speakers and debaters before that time comes.

Officers of the local chapter are: Virginia Ullom, president; Philip Zaugg, vice- president; Yvonne Steffani, secretary- treasurer; Barton Swartz, correspondent.

We Beg to Remark Information is available from reliable

sources that Professor Ogg is slipping from his old standards. It is certain that on at least three occasions last week he was pro- ceeded in leaving the classroom by two or three students. Please send letters of sym pathy and tonic suggestions to the dead letter office.

PLAN MOCK ELECTION The Bee Gee News is going to hold a mock

election Wednesday, Oct. 31st, to determine the cross-section of opinion here on the can- didates for governor and senator. The vot- ing procedure is to be explained in Chapel today.

Every effort is being made to avoid pos- sible unfairness in voting which would make it a mock election. The Staff expects that college students will be more likely to think for themselves than any other more general collection of people, hence they feel that the results will be more truly repre- sentative than is ordinary.

SOCIAL EVENTS

Ye Olde Five Brothers

This week's scribbling is merely to dis- Jose the following facts concerning our lccessful pledge week. We were very

lortunate in signing somewhere in the jeighborhood of 15 neophytes. The follow- ig men have decided to cast their ballot

favor of the Five Brothers:

Eugene Riffle, Dennison; John Ihnat, lakeside; Ross Bateson, Risingsun; Cloyce Gentling, Carey; L. J. Daniels, Weston;

Robert Kruse, New Knoxville; Walter Slau- v, Lorain; Jack Kinney, Bowling Green; jrald Fry, Bloomdale, Alvin Meyers, Ham-

|r; Wilson Jansen, Detroit; Florice Patton, ft. Cory; Normand Jones, Fostoria. (We [ay have forgotten some one, which will be >rrected next week.) The neophytes were informed of their

^ming duties by G. A. P. McKee to the ttent of appearing at the second meeting torn this date with a smooth, well balan- [d, and well varnished bit of wood which ill be used as a perusader. This bit of >od may be pleasing to the objective of its lim" if it is made into the form of "Ye (de Five Brothers" paddle. The Fraternity has been wondering if would be at all possible to carry out an-

|her Rally on the 1st day of November for |e benefit of our football team. The reaction of some organizations in the ;e Gee News seemed to lend the idea as >rthy of many more such gatherings but

the student body should know, this is |lir College. Due to the fact that this,, date,

on Thursday evening it would be pos- )le to have a larger turnout. Whfet is the iction of every organization on the Cam-

is? We would like to hear about yours in \xt weeks issue.

'. Fraternity wishes at this time to lgratulate the Las Amigas Sorority for

wonderful "All-School" party which jy sponsored and also the Quill Type for

part they played in rendering a very ;cessful week-end for those enjoying the

of "tripping on the light fantastic toe." rours for Five Brother Spirit and until t. 31st—so-o- long.

Commoner Notes

.last week our president, Art Wohlers, |s elected president of the Inter-Frater-

Council. Congratulations Art! Plans now under way among the Inter-

iternity and Inter-Sorority Councils to \e the Alumni a greater reception thfs jr. If all of the rumors have any foun- |ion, there are going to be some changes the celebration. With the cooperation of student body, this will be one of Bowling

ken's best Homecomings.

DELHI DOPE The Delhi meeting night has been chang-

ed from Tuesday to Monday and the at- tendance has increased more than some- what. Where do they go on Tuesdays?

Five pledges, Riggle, Oakleif, Phillips, Emerson and Stever put in their initial appearance and were treated to a little impromptu entertainment when Champ and Inman got together and played the anvil chorus two distinct and different ways, Champ's version being the more musical but Jim's by far the most effective.

The Delhi has departed from the usual custom of having a homecoming dinner and is going to have a dance instead, which should be big news for several co-eds. The dinner was always stag. Just can't get along without 'em says we. A smoker will preceed the dance, however, as a good old fashioned bull session has always been enjoyed by all the members. This one should be sensational with Johnson, Badertscher and Inman to- gether again. (We learn about woman from them.)

More dope next week.

News Briefs The date for the presentation of the

comedy, "The Old Soak", by the Bee Gee players is November 6.

Margaret Culbertson, of Bryan, a fresh- man who has been absent for so long be- cause of illness, returns this week to resume her studies.

Because of FERA aid the Training School employs young men who act as police for the children who cross Wooster street. This street is also U. S. route No. 6 and the heavy traffic endangers the children's lives. The three who do this work are Peter Matulis, Earle Leye, and Charles Blazer. At morning, at noon, and when school dis- misses in the afternoon these boys are there to prevent the children from crossing in front of the automobiles.

Harry Wolfe, a former student of Bow- ling Green College, will be married soon at the Lutheran church in Fostoria. Mr. Wolfe is now pastor of a church in Michigan.

Seven Sister Flashes The Seven Sisters are seriously consider-

ing adapting "Little Girls, You've Had a Busy Day" as their theme song, since we are so full of plans and business.

On Tuesday evening, Oct. 23, our sponsor, Miss Caroline Nielsen has invited the sor- ority to be her guests at dinner at the Wo- man's Club in honor of the initiation of our two pledges, Rosemary Ketzenbarger and Jeanete Haas. The impressive candle light initiation service will follow at the Club.

The sorority is entertaining on Wednes- day evening, Oct. 24 with a Hallowe'en par- ty. There will be fortune telling, spooks, and surprises, quite in keeping with the spirit of Hallowe'en. For the evening, we'll all forget we're in college and pretend we're in another world.

Of course, Homecoming would not be complete for us without our dinner on Sat- urday evening. This will also be held in the Woman's Club. We are expecting a large number of our Alumni back and believe you us, we shall welcome them with open and arms and hearts.

And that's all for this time.

Five Sisters Hold Open House The Five Sisters graciously entertained

in their home Sunday afternoon from four to five thirty. The guests congenially con- versed and enjoyed the afternoon, surround- ed by the fall setting of yellow and rust pom-poms, which blended perfectly with the artistic shades of the rooms. The con- tinual soft strains of music added to the atmosphere of cordiality. The table was centered by a graceful bouquet of dainty white mums and red rose-buds, balanced by tall green tapers. With Mrs. Mooers and Mrs. Virginia Taylor pouring, the scene was complete.

The Five Sisters should be very proud of their vocal trio and the instrumental trio, for they contributed greatly to the after- noon.

A large majority of the faculty and a fine representation of the student body were present. All expressed that such a proce- dure was delightful and should be repeated.

COMMERCE CORNER The Quill-Type met Wednesday evening,

Oct. 17, and a fine program was present- ed. The following people participated: Miss Filiere, piano selections; Miss Duf- field, musical readings; Mr. Emerson, a paper, and Miss Pinert, Mr. Babione, and Mr. Doehring gave extemporaneous talks. Plans were discussed for a Hallowe'en

meeting. Thursday afternoon, Sept. 18, from four

to five the Quill-Type gave a tea in the faculty room of the practical arts building to welcome a group of new commercial students. Miss Ogle poured tea. Mr. Doeh- ring entertained the members and guests with selections on his accordion. The faculty members present were Mr. Knepper and Miss Ogle.

An all-college Hallowe'en dance was spon- sored by the Quill-Type, Friday evening, Oct. 19. Shocks of corn and brightly color- ed leaves made up the decorations.

In addition to the music furnished by the orchestra, several songs were sung by Misses Athena Avery, Anadelle Short, and Evelyn Wentz.

Cider and doughnuts were served thru- out the evening by Quill-Type members.

Members of the faculty present were: President and Mrs. Williams, Dr. and Mrs. Zaugg, Dr. Williamson, Miss Hartman, Dean Maude Sharp, Miss Ogle, and Mr. Knepper.

Shatzet Hall Notes We were glad to see so many girls stay

at the dorm over the week-end. Would you like to know what the girls do over the week-end? Here are a few of the things: pop corn, make fudge, dance, listen to the radio, play the piano and study. The last thing is usually left till late Sunday.

Strike up the orchestra! Shatzel is quite musical. We hear a flute in one corridor, a violin in another corridor, and singing in an other. We also have clarinet, drum and trumpet players.

Ethel Jackson, of Farmer, O., was call- ed home because of the illness of her father.

Williams Hall News Another new couple, we've understood, Is Dean Sharp's nephew and Janet Wood.

In "Rosebud's" affair we made a mistake; It's Mary Gill who gets the break.

What remark that Clifford said Made Ethel laugh and then turn red?

Over the week-end "Grandma" was away, We're glad that now she's back to stay.

What boy carried his girl to the dance, And met the scorn of "Prexy's" glance?

Glover went home with his room-mate Bob; His being away made Alene want to sob.

THE FLICKER'S NEST Why I Like My Job

In these days when jobs are rare as a lay in June, it- is "well to stop sometimes, md take stock in ourselves, and in the jobs ire are holding, with a thought of their im- )ortance. A careful analysis of what makes them important, with studies for their bet- terment is equally valuable, since it enables >ne to gain perspective, and be of increas- ig value to those most interested in these

lobs. The writer has reiterated the truth that

idiile you cannot train for invention, nor jnite the divine spark of genius, yet you in recognize it where it may be found, and

Incourage its development. We have heard lat genius is "infinite capacity for taking

|ains", but a mere definition of an original linker,—an inventor, is not so easy. One sason why he is not easily segregated and lassified is that we do not readily recognize |m. Let us look backward to a few ex- lples.

[James McNeil Whistler was one of Arn- ica's foremost artists. West Point sent

[m home because he was a poor student, ^d a poorer horseman. Edison had little looling, as we think of formal education,

leinmetz will not go down in history be- |use of his dwarfed body, but because of

einassive Intellect which made him the rizard of Schenectady." We are told that Ferson had trouble with the English iguage, and that Shakespeare was a poor slier. Henry Ford declared all "History \s the bunk", and Lorado Taft discovered

life work quite by accident. Humanity |uld have lost immeasurably without the ktributions of these men, and others of ^ir like. Who helped them realize their

work, and encouraged them into paths ;re they could work to advantage with abilities with which they were endow-

ed? We have come to believe that a student

words best at something in which his great- est interest lies. It is not the thought of these lines to imply that the contributions of these men, (mostly of a utilitarian char- acter) are of the greatest good to humanity. It is generally accepted, however, that con- tributions which make merely for "creature comfort" have been of inestimable value to society in general. Where can we look for genius? Where can we look for original thinking? The answer seems relatively sim- ple. Is the English department in position to find it? Will the Mathematics depart- ment locate more than one "Einstein"? Will our Social Science departments come to our aid? History deals with this prob- lem in the past sense. The Science depart- ments comes nearer solving our problem, with the laboratories for a study of Chem- istry and Physics. It remains for the de- partment of Industrial Arts Education to provide a set-up which comes more nearly to being the proper one for the discovery of the inventor.

When a boy works intently upon a pro- ject in which he is most interested, without undue restraint, we look for unexpected results; for evidence of genius, and for in- vention;—the product of original thinking. Any assistance we can give will help him penetrate this realm of dreams, and trans- form a glittering ideal into a practical reality.

Every teacher in the department of In- dustrial Arts Education has this oppor- tunity to a greater or less degree. Perhaps the Wright, the Edison, or the Firestone of tomorrow may be en- couraged to develop his talent in the laboratories which I help to provide. This work, in the field of "Human Engineering" is one of the reasons why I like my job.

Men's Intramural Sports

In order to help the department of Phys- ical Education to efficiently operate all intramural athletics for the year, each or- ganization and group should organize and elect a house manager. As soon as this is done the "House Manager's" name should be reported to the department. The depart- ment will keep in close touch with all of the managers and they in turn will contact the individual team members. Accept your responsibility and help the Intramural Department.

Following are some important rules and instructions for you to keep in mind and carry out:

1. The rules for the league have been drawn up and we are asking you to study them and know them thoroughly.

2. Know whom your men are and keep in close touch with them at all times.

3. Keep your team members posted as to the exact time and place of all games. Be there early enough to start the game on time.

4. If in case of dire need for postpone- ment have word in the intramural office two days prior to game.

5. You have charge and are responsible for all equipment used by your team.

6. When asked to meet with intra-mural director and officials please cooperate by attending all meetings promptly.

7. Please notify the intramural depart- ment of any change of address.

8. Team managers will please make team entrances as soon as notice is given for the particular sport, so that games may start on time.
