ANOUNCEMENT

Because of the heavy traf-fic borne by O\!!' railroad and bus companies in the prosecu-tion of the war the colleges have been asked not to use the transportation lines for travel to and from home, except in cases of emergency and neces-sity.

It is not difficult for us to imagine the extra burden to our transportation lines should all of our. college students vis-it home at · mid-semester, ConQ»liance with this request of the Government is one of the very few practical in-stances in which we- .may do something that in reality helps the war effort. It is in this spirit of cooperation that .Mary Hardin-Baylor college will have no Easter holidays.

RUDOLF FIRIUSNY APPEARS IN TEMPLE RECITAL ON WED.

Czech Piaaiat Presented At. Municipal Auditorium By Concert Anociation ·

Rudolf Firkusny, celebrated Czech pianist, was presented in recital at the municipal auditori-um, Temple, by the Community Concert association before an au-dience of Temple, Belton, and Mary ,Hardin-Baylor holders of Temple and college lyceum tick-ets.

Mr. Firkusny has appeared as guest soloist in the Mozart con-certo in D Minor with the Cleve-land Symphony orchestra, under the direction of Dr. Frank Black. His appearance as guest artist was broadcast over the Mutual Broadcasting system.

Since his arrival in the United States, Mr. Firkusny has given re-citals in New York, Wssbington, and Chicago. Last summer, on his South American tour, he vis-ited /Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, and• Peru, making in all SS appeara'Dces in recital and as solo-ist with orchestra.

As a result of sold-out-auditor-iqms in several cities, his quota of recitals was augmented notably in Buenos Aires, where, instead of the originally scheduled four, he gave 16 concerts.

Before coming to this country, Mr. Firkusny had. a distinguished record in Europe. Since his de-but in Vienna at the age of 14, he impressed hiJI!.self upon the pub-lic as an extraordinary artist. A former pupil of Kurz and Jana-cek, Mr. Firkusny entered the State Conservatory of Brunn at the age of six. · ·

Phlla society, although his siSter, Audra, '39, was a membef of the latter senior society.

"This man, to whom everyone r;oea with all problems concerning supplies, smilingly admits (which makes it easy for one to guess that he enjoys his work) that he is "always there~· to do whatever neecls to be done. According to many people, that term "what-ever" covers mighty broad terri· tory, too. He actually does so much more than fa expected of the average business manager.

As for hobbles or Blleclal forma of recreation Mr. Walker lays clalni" to none. It would be easy for anyone to see why. All one must do is hover near his office doorway to see the steady traffic of persons! asking for materials or for his 1advlce on how to get them.

EDUCATION: 216 Beginning Laverne Rasberry spent SundaY,

to Hopkins County, Texas, when be was a young boy. It was here that· Mr. Walker first taught

. school, even before he had gone on to college. He taught for five years In the public schools and served as principal of the rural schools in Hopkins County.

After attending King Private school In Sulphur Springs, Mr. Walker went to Burleson Junior college, where for one year and a half he was a student teacher. With majors In mathematics and education and minors In Englfsh and business, Mr. Walker was graduated from East Texas State Teachers' college, Commerce. He received a diploma from Paris Commercial college and has done extension work In education at the University of Texas.

Before coming to Mary Hardin~ Baylor, Mr. Walker was for seven years a faculty member, then bus-iness manager of San Marcos Academy. Prior to that he served as principal of the Odem, Texas, High school, teaching English and history, for one year. Whlle at San Marcos he taught business and mathematics. '

Since he has been at H. H.-B. Mr. Walker has from time to time been pressed into serving as teach· er of commercial law: although, his official position Is that of b·aslness manager and secretary. All the general buying of regular college supplies comes under his direction: he handles the pur-chasing for the boqk store and dining hall. In addition he Is clerk in charge of the Baylor Sta-tion post office.

Since the fall of 1919, Mr. Walker has been a deacon In the Fist Baptist church. Since 1921 he has been a Mason.

Even though the opinion of some persons bas him chalked up as being "a hard man to deal with," and some timid souls have been known to fear approaching him, when you come to know him you'll find that · "his bark Is worse than his 1blte!" '

It was left' something unnished that we could have done easily their last chance, y'know, and

., .• Students Must Love

Why war? Because people hate. Are you guilty? Are we, the American people, guilty of bearing hate in our hearts, in our minds, in our talk?

Your automatic, your reflex answer to such a question is, "Why, of course not. We are a Christian nation, found-ed on the belief that ~11 men are created free and' equal. In accordance with our faith, in accordance with our religious beliefs each of us, and our thinking, must be bound up with love, not hate.

"Outmoded doctrine" is that all but scornful reproach offered by the Army's new Orientation and Education pro-gram when referring to the old teaching that "An eye for an eye" should be the good soldier's creed.

Yes, we agree, it is outmoded doctrine, Not only that, but it is also in direct disagreement with the teachings of Chl'ist. However, in its place the "Army Guide'' pro-poses the new rule : "If your enemy shoots your toe, you shoot his head." It also says, a soldier must be anxious to work bodily destruction upon the .foes of his country."

Are we, as Christian students, able to withstand such strong , . . such forceful and mass teachings of hate? Are we, Christian students particularly, able to continue our doctrine and actual practice of love to the point where it will offer balance for such neceBSary war meth-ods? What greater thing could we be doinar today, this very minute, than offering free-handedly and joyfully our lives as ballast for a world in need, Its greatest need is love. This no one of us will deny.

1 Although we, along with our friends ftnd ourselv~s applauding the hideous bombings of the lands of our enemies, we must remember that sin and evil bearet ·sin and evil even when we are their reluctant inatruments, Great i~ the demand, the responsibility we have laid upon us not merely of intollhrenc, but, much more Important, of love.

In o1•der to offc1• a worknhle balance for these conRtant preachings of hnte, we much over-emphasize, if such a thlnar be possible, our nctlvo belief that love can cure the wot•ld. Ncvot• lot one of us be heard saying that she cares not what happonH to our enemios so long as we win the war. How fooliHh it Is to suppose that OUl' enemies could bo completely wlpod out phyllically, What must, in its stead, tuke place is that we destroy those hato.flllod notions in their minds, offot•ln~r for their replncoment ideas bound up with love.

Let Army education say what is noceaaary, Let Chris-tian education say, and continue to. 11ay firmly, what is right.

enough to get that old sunshine here, and everywhere, but I don't think Pml doing much good, frankly. This column needs that sunshine bad-like, I'll tt?ll you for sure.

To begin with, MAUDIE LED-DON looked. typically collegiate in her soldier blue twill .jumper, with a ,white blouse. And an-other little lady in a very admir-able jumper .was MARY JO SMITH. Hers was of my favo-rite, it seems, gray wool flannel, also teamed with a white blouse.

of clothes, MARY MARGARET was equally as pretty in both.

Another nice sweater, blouse, and skirt combination particular-ly nice was that of MARIE MEYER: The wool flannel skirt and silk blouse were of baby pink and the sweater was baby blue. She topped her blond bead with the~same-shade-of-pink ribbons.

Returning to suits, PEGGY GRAINGEWS dark aqua blue gabardine is so very nice. She, too, wore one of those ruffle-necked blouses with it. I think she was on her way to F. T. A.

Committee chairmen for Royal Academia are Gall Thompson, foods; and Betty Ruth Crow, dec-orations. Those . for Hlstorical-Phlla are Mary j o Smith, decora-tions; Genevieve Mason, foods; and Katherine Anthon, lnvita-.ttons.

And for the same colo~s, only in suits, there was DODIE WIL-LIAMS the first day she got back with that beautiful ring looking mighty nice in her soldier blue twill suit. You couldn't have missed META PEVETO's so-very-well tailored gray flannel suit she wore Sunday with black acces-sories and a frosty white blouse.

And BETH HUTCHERSON was bordering on glamorous in that American beauty colored crepe dress of hers, the one she had on at Pi Gamma Mu Tuesday night.

HELEN JOYCE BOYD had on a blue, gold; and white printed silk skirt not long ago. It was full and gathered and reminds me of our favorites for spring and summer.
